Coffee does NOT give you energy! Here’s why quitting coffee could give you more energy than ever before, plus how to prepare for coffee withdrawal symptoms and reduce them. 👉 Download Dr. Berg’s Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO07 0:00 Introduction: What happens to your body without coffee?0:08 Does coffee give you energy?1:42 Caffeine withdrawal day-to-day4:29 Side effects of quitting coffee5:57 Natural ways to boost energy6:34 Quitting coffee Coffee does not wake you up! Here’s how it works. Caffeine has a similar chemistry to a compound called adenosine, which is a byproduct of ATP, the body’s energy currency. It can bind to the adenosine receptor and inhibit the signals that regulate sleep. This isn’t really giving you the energy you need!There is often a withdrawal period when you quit coffee. Here’s what to expect: Days 1 and 2 Within 16 hours of quitting coffee, you may experience a headache caused by a decrease in dopamine. Days 3 to 5Irritability peaks, but you’ll likely have fewer coffee cravings as dopamine adapts. You may crave other things, such as sugar or fatty foods. Days 6 and 7At this point, you may notice that you’re sleeping better. Cortisol levels drop.Days 8 to 10 Your mood improves, and you’re no longer experiencing crashes.Days 11 to 14Cognitive function improves. Days 15 to 21 Dopamine levels have returned to nearly normal.Days 22 to 30This is when you’ll notice the full benefits of quitting coffee. Your energy levels should be noticeably improved.Caffeine exists in plants as a natural pesticide that actually paralyzes bugs! It has a hormetic effect in humans, which means it induces a small amount of stress that causes the body to adapt.To increase energy naturally, focus on the following:• Sunlight• Exercise• Electrolytes• Adaptogens You don’t have to quit coffee cold turkey. Try replacing it with green tea, eventually shifting to herbal tea. For an energy boost, try sea salt in water, electrolytes, or magnesium powder. Ashwagandha can help make the process smoother. Lemon balm tea works well too! Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Vitamin D misinformation is everywhere! Learn why the vitamin D recommended dosage doesn’t align with actual science, how this vitamin D controversy started, and how much vitamin D you really need. 👉 Get Dr. Berg's Daily Routine as a free download: https://drbrg.co/45qtO07 0:00 Introduction: Vitamin D research explained 1:23 Vitamin D data reanalysis1:52 The Institute of Medicine and the vitamin D RDA debate 4:08 Vitamin D benefits 8:22 Vitamin D toxicity 8:55 Vitamin D deficiency explained We’ve been told that 600 IU of vitamin D is enough, but how much do we really need? In 2014, a group of researchers reanalyzed the data used to set the current vitamin D RDA. They found that instead of 600 IU per day, we actually need 8895 IU of vitamin D every day!This recalculation was confirmed by other independent research; yet, to this day, it has been completely ignored. “Forbidden Facts” by Gavin de Becker exposes some of the health controversies surrounding the Institute of Medicine. They’re viewed as the top scientific authority that is supposed to protect us, but who are they really trying to protect? Vitamin D isn’t just for your bones. It’s vital for your immune system, muscles, brain, mood, cognitive function, metabolic function, and more. Your risk of cancer even increases when you’re low.Why haven’t they corrected this vitamin D mistake? Not only have they not corrected it, but they’ve also become insistent on maintaining the recommended vitamin D dosage as is. We need significantly more than 600 IU of vitamin D!Vitamin D blood levels do not reflect the vitamin D in your cells. The standard of 20 ng/mL is not enough. Although this number is often debated, you need around 50 to 80 ng/mL to potentially ensure you have enough vitamin D in your cells. Vitamin D toxicity is extremely rare, and the risks can be mitigated by magnesium, vitamin K2, and increased water intake. We’ve created an indoor, sugar-filled society that fears the sun! So it’s no surprise that vitamin D levels are suffering. What can you do? Start getting more sun! On the days you don’t, or in the winter months, take a vitamin D3 supplement with magnesium and vitamin K2.

Next, I’ll show you an extension exercise that stretches the flexors and the psoas muscles. I also included a standing quad stretch because it’s great for posture.

Salt may be one of the most powerful natural remedies for chronic respiratory conditions. Learn how to reduce respiratory mucus with salt for healthier sinuses, clearer airways, and relief from chronic sinus infections.👉 Get Dr. Berg’s Daily Routine as a free download: https://drbrg.co/45qtO070:00 Introduction: How to get rid of mucus with salt 0:39 What causes respiratory mucus? 2:47 Reducing mucus with salt 4:17 Vitamin D and respiratory congestion 5:21 How to reduce lung congestion with salt 5:45 How to use a neti pot 7:57 Boiling salt water for respiratory conditions8:36 More tips to reduce respiratory mucus Most people with sinus issues and respiratory mucus have inflammation, but it’s usually not caused by an infection. When you treat chronic respiratory conditions with medication, you suppress the symptoms, causing the problem to linger. Antibiotics will only work if the problem is caused by bacteria, so they won’t be helpful if your congestion is caused by a viral infection, mold, or fungus. Deep inside the sinuses are tiny hairs called cilia. Beneath the cilia are mucus membranes, which are likely inflamed if you have excess mucus. When the body detects a foreign invader, it increases histamines, which create more mucus. Salt creates an osmotic shift, which means it can dehydrate mucus and directly destroy bacteria, mold, yeast, and fungus. It also has a mucolytic effect, so it thins and breaks down mucus directly, making it easier to eliminate.If your sinus problem is chronic, it may be caused by a fungal infection. If it only occurs during the winter months, suspect a vitamin D deficiency. In this case, you may want to try taking 50,000 IU of vitamin D per day, with vitamin K2 and magnesium.There are several ways to reduce mucus with salt. You can use salt water in a neti pot or inhale steam directly from a regular pot after boiling salt water. Use Himalayan sea salt instead of table salt. Garlic oil applied to a Q-tip and swabbed inside each nostril can also be beneficial. Try these other tips to help eliminate chronic respiratory mucus:• Consume 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar diluted in water 3 times per day • Inspect your home for mold • Eliminate sugar and starch from your diet • Avoid dairy Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Struggling with weight loss and stubborn belly fat despite a healthy diet and exercise? Discover the best bedtime drink for weight loss to help break a weight loss plateau and lose belly fat faster.👉 Download Dr. Berg’s Daily Routine (FREE): https://drbrg.co/3N7qpx1 0:00 Introduction: Weight loss drinks 0:26 Hormones and weight loss3:08 Insulin and belly fat5:19 Lemon balm tea7:21 The best slim waist tips If you’re on a low-carb diet, exercising regularly, yet still struggling with waist size, this is for you. There are 7 fat-burning hormones that are triggered by factors such as exercise and diet. These hormones are countered by 2 other dominant hormones, cortisol and insulin. In the presence of these two hormones, fat-burning hormones will not work! Cortisol isn’t just a stress hormone! It’s also a fat-storing hormone, specifically at night. If your cortisol is too high at night, you will not burn fat while you’re sleeping.Insulin is a fat-storing hormone that stops fat-burning hormones from working. High cortisol can cause your body to produce glucose, consequently spiking insulin. If you’re struggling with weight loss, especially belly fat, discipline and willpower aren’t the problem. You can’t lose weight while under stress! Lemon balm tea is one of the best weight loss drinks! It contains rosmarinic acid, which increases GABA. To improve the benefits, consume lemon balm tea with 1 scoop of magnesium glycinate powder, 60 minutes before bed. Magnesium glycinate helps lower cortisol levels and also increases GABA and insulin sensitivity. Here are a few other tips to help you lose belly fat:•No snacking•No liquids 90 minutes before bed•Lower carbohydrate intake •Daily walks in the sun•Write down problems before bed to avoid problem-solving/overthinking while trying to sleepDr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

The unhealthiest foods spike insulin levels, leading to insulin resistance, which is commonly at the root of chronic illness. Simply put, foods that lower insulin are good, and foods that raise insulin are bad. Here are 7 of the healthiest foods that you should eat every single day: 1. Sauerkraut Raw sauerkraut is a rich source of beneficial microbes and one of the most potent probiotics. It is high in fiber, low in carbs, and has the highest amount of vitamin C of any food. Sauerkraut is rich in glutamine, vitamin K2, vitamin U, and phytonutrients like sulforaphane. 2. Arugula This vegetable is low in oxalates, high in nitric oxide, and supports the endothelial layer of the arteries. 3. Wild-caught salmonWild-caught fatty fish are the best source of omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon is rich in selenium, which helps bind to mercury and remove it from the body, so you don’t have to worry about mercury when you consume it. 4. Cod liverCod liver has the most omega-3 fatty acids of any food and is a potent source of healthy fat. 5. Hamburger Grass-fed ground beef is one of the best superfoods there is! It’s loaded with B vitamins, zinc, iron, carnosine, creatine, and other essential nutrients. Opt for organic ground beef with a higher fat content for maximum benefits. 6. Brazil nuts Brazil nuts contain the highest amount of selenium of any food, which is essential for healthy thyroid and immune function. Selenium protects the reproductive system and also helps prevent hair loss. 7. Extra-virgin olive oilThis healthy fat helps extract phytonutrients from your salad. It is beneficial for heart and cellular health and has potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-clotting properties.Here are 3 bonus superfoods for everyday healthy eating!8. CheeseChoose full-fat, raw, aged cheese. It’s loaded with vitamin K2, CLA, and has benefits from fermentation.9.
