In this video, I’m going to share a natural remedy for vertigo. Surgery, along with vertigo exercises, are sometimes suggested as treatment for vertigo, but this doesn’t address the root cause.
Vertigo is typically caused by calcium crystals in the wrong part of the ear. These inner ear crystals interrupt communication between the hairs and nerves in the ear and the brain. This can drastically affect balance.
It’s normal to have inner ear crystals, but if they’re in the wrong place, they can cause vertigo. In the first compartment of the inner ear, calcium crystals are situated on top of the otolithic membrane. Underneath are hairs connected to nerves that go to your brain. Calcium crystals add weight to this “gel” membrane to help you easily navigate the world around you.
Most people have around 1000 calcium crystals per ear. These inner ear crystals are only problematic when they become dislodged and go deeper into the ear. This can be caused by head trauma, infections, certain medications, and aging.
People with vertigo have higher calcium concentrations in the lymph, so they may have more trouble dissolving it. There’s a high association of people with osteoporosis and vertigo. People with osteoporosis have excess calcium in the soft tissues.
Vitamin D may help with vertigo by helping your body remove excess calcium and putting it where it belongs.
Consider taking between 10,000 and 20,000 IU of vitamin D3. Make sure to take it with vitamin K2 and magnesium. Magnesium naturally counters calcium buildup.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you better understand what could be behind your symptoms of vertigo. I’ll see you in the next video.
For me, had this once a few years back. I felt a high in the head pressure a few days before and then BAM. It went away after 3 days. Very bizarre, but that’s my story.
Cool story bro 🤔
Thanks for this. From your previous video on the matter, I was able to get rid of the crystals. I went to the hospital and Al they gave me was rubbing alcohol to smell to get rid of the nausea and a $500 bill. 20,000 IU Vitamin D and 500 IU of Vitamin K worked for me. Been 6 months since I suffered from this and hasn’t re-occurred.
how long did you take them? Did you take magnesium also?
20,000 IU daily??
Great to know we share the similar experiences
Awesome! Never heard of this! Great share!
The “Emotional Eater” won’t tell you to stay away from bread, pastries, cereals, sugar, etc. anymore, because it brings out the shame in them… 😮 Let’s all try to avoid having to wear prescription reading glasses when we reach our 70’s! Happy Sunday, everyone! 👊
…’80s, neither. 🫡
Thank you, Team Berg! Useful information.
Since going Carnivore now almost 4 months, I do not have the vertigo anymore. Until your video appeared today (5/5/2024), I almost totally forgot that I even had the problem! The epley maneuver really does help though!
Amazing how eating stuff appropriate for our species fixes so many problems!
I just finished watching a vegan vid.
Oh my gosh I watched your video on vertigo a while ago and I had vertigo all the time. It was so bad I would vomit. Do I take 50000 D3 and 500 mcg once a week. It had been a miracle for me. I can’t remember when I had my last vertigo attack and I suffered for years every few weeks. So God bless and thank you Dr Berg

Thank you Dr Berg!
😺👍
Thank you.
Thank you. I love
This is the best explanation I’ve ever seen, Dr Berg. Also ginger tea with fresh lemon is wonderful to help get rid of dizziness and nausea. Thanks for your helpful advice 🙏🏻
Ginger = natural “sea sickness/ imbalance” remedy
This video was not designed for people with vertigo to watch it – all those movement scenes in it are full-on vertigo inducing!
Agreed. I had to stop watching it 🙏🏼
can confirm, I now have vertigo
Why would you be on the Internet during a bout of vertigo?
So they can listen
Perhaps just listen and not watch. Honestly, it’s the information that needs to be heard over any footage scene. So try closing your eyes. I don’t have vertigo as far as I am aware but there are meditation videos on YouTube that I refuse to look at the screen while they play because of the off putting visuals . I just close my eyes and listen.
Thank you so much! I saw your other video and told my mom, she has been taking the vitamin D3 and k2 and feels great now! No doctors were able to help for months. Thank you so much!
Thank you and good morning!
What type of magnesium do you suggest along with Vitamin d3 and K2.? Thank you for the great info.
I believe he has said before that magnesium glycinate is what he recommends. That’s what I take.
That sounds super sassy lol. Didn’t mean it to sound like that 😅 but yeah mag. Glycinate is what he’s talked about in other vids
You can order his vitamins, that’s what i did for my mom and it already has all the ingredients
I use to take that magnesium glycinate but had to stop was affecting my bowl movements and not in a good way, was taking 250mg per day.🥲
AFAIK, he recommend magnesium citrate because it will be absorbed very effective in your body. Magnesium citrate sticks, easy to consume and price is fine (here in Germany)
@@BlingyBeaglycinate is the one that is supposed to not cause GI issues. You’re telling us it does? Just getting ready to purchase some, but don’t want that
Thank you. God bless you.
Wow, I have been suffering for years with this.This explains so much!
Thank you for your sharing this ❤❤❤
My wife had Vertigo a year ago. It was awful we thought it was worse maybe even a brain tumor as she would fall and couldn’t stand up. They gave her medicine for vertigo and it only helped a tiny amount. So wife and I went on YOUTUBE and watched 5 minute video on the Epley Maneuver. Did that and a minute later she was fine. A year later not a single episode. I am also taking daily magnesium with D3/K2 as well.
You’re so good to us! Thank you 🙏🏼
As you enter menopause, women often get dizzy. It’s because these crystals are not dissolving in the right way or are not staying in the right positions in the inner ear. This is due to the fluctuation and decrease of estrogen…
Vestibular therapy often helps…. But it’s always good to have a natural remedy before you have to go for the physical therapy
Retired hospital & nursing home LPN here: we had ONE neurologist in hospital who would insist on this as a possible treatment when the patient’s labs were good. KISS method, he often said Dr’s are ordering all kinds of expensive tests when the Epley Maneuver may solve the entire problem, & some people have it have it done as an annual routine.
