If it seems that your vitamins are making nerve pain worse, the solution might be simple. Vitamin B6 is vital in neurotransmission, but must be converted to its active form through the liver. Unconverted vitamin B6 can accumulate in the body and affect the nervous system if your liver is sluggish, if you don't have enough bile, or if you’re low in glutathione. Inflammation, high blood sugar, and low magnesium can also inhibit your ability to make this conversion.
Most vitamin B12 supplements contain cyanocobalamin, which is useless unless converted into the active form, methylcobalamin.
Vitamin B1 is vital in supporting the mitochondria and the myelin sheath. Low vitamin B1 is a common cause of peripheral neuropathy.
Vitamins B1, B6, and B12 are water-soluble vitamins, so they can’t easily penetrate the brain and myelin sheath. Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble form of vitamin B1 that can penetrate the myelin sheath to help reverse peripheral neuropathy.
Alpha-lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant that can help with peripheral neuropathy, support mitochondrial function, and improve insulin sensitivity.
Key takeaways:
1. Use the right forms of vitamin B1, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12
2. Don’t go over 50 mg per day
3. Ensure you have enough bile
4. Consume fermented foods
5. Make sure your insulin is balanced
6. Don’t forget about alpha-lipoic acid

Thanks for watching! Now you know about the supplements that worsen nerve pain and which forms of these nutrients to take instead. I’ll see you in the next video.
❤ Your videos are the best Dr. Berg! I’ve watched so many and learned so much, it’s hard to count how many ways your content has improved my life! 🙏
I don’t remember when I subscribed to this channel, but I’m happy I did. Definitely helped me with my journey💯
This is the first time I’ve seen a Dr. Berg video without a notification 🔔. 5 minutes ago. Thank you Dr. Berg. 🤗 You’re the best! ✨
I don’t have gallbladder wat to do in that case
Tudca and bile salts
@krysking8073plz elaborate where to get it and how much to use
@krysking8073 could you please tell me where to purchase these things?
Bro is cooked
So it’s best to forget about supplements and eat these vitamins with healthy food.
Then you’re sure not to overdose.
☀ ☕ 🚶 Fasting was tough when cooking for family, especially during holidays, but after getting into ketosis, it became a breeze. I’ve been experimenting with keto recipes and it’s amazing how much creativity you can bring to the table. Definitely recommend giving it a try if you’re looking for a change! 🥗
Big Food and Big Pharma are “tearing people apart”.😢
Exactly
😢😭
Big Medical are the biggest drug salesmen/dealers the world has ever seen
@timba1868💯
Since they put ”sulfer”to preserve in most foods like bread etc
OMG so much stuff. At this point I don’t care, I am just eating good healthy organic foods, and meditate everyday. So many toxins, bad air and water, and stuff in life, plus now we have war. Worrying about all these things will make your health worst!. We need to focus on love, enjoy life, and be careful where we put our attention. Where you put your attention you put your energy like Joe Dispenza says. I prefer to live and love than fear, even if I life a shorter life
💙💙💙 mindset matters
Yes, very helpful, but for those of us with health issues that impact daily life, we have to keep following these suggestions to help
Fear is a spiritual deficiency.
We need to focus on Jesus. Everything else falls into place.
This information has nothing to do with Fear. It’s for those of us who suffer illness and disease and helping us get back on track. Unfortunately, we don’t get the proper nutrition from our diets anymore. And, no, not even from the whole and natural foods we consume, because they’ve been stripped away by glyphosate, etc.
Pray over everything ✝️🙏
I wonder how many people have benefitted greatly from the excellent advice of Dr. Berg? Much gratitude to Dr. B for another gem wisdom 💎
May All who seek to be well have Health, Happiness, Harmony, Wisdom and Well-being. 🙏 Blessings to Dr. Berg and to All.🙌💫💖
He’s very good I’ve been watching him since I’ve been doing keto many many years ago. He’s absolutely right about the cyanide version of B12 it’s what they put in everything that they get over the counter like an energy drinks and all those things the one that he said on the bottom is the better one. I learned about that a few years ago a friend of mine told me that. When people say that he doesn’t know what he’s talking about he does know what he’s talking about!
@picantesworld7723 I agree! Thanks for sharing. ☺
So what do you recommend for nerve pain or nerve damage?
Hi, for nerve pain, things like B vitamins especially B1 Benfotiamine, magnesium, alpha lipoic acid, and a balanced diet with healthy fats and protein can help support nerve health.
@Drberg Yes, this helps immensely.
Lion’s Mane mushroom helps on top of the Benfotiamine for me
He answers this in the video

My best friend died of a B-1 deficiency – she was taking the wrong kind and got Wernike-Korsakoff syndrome and died. When you’re diagnosed too late, it’s too late to supplement with the right type. They blamed it on alcohol consumption, but she only had 1 glass of wine with dinner. It was the wrong supplement. I’m still grieving over such a senseless death, and it was a long time ago.
Was she a vegan or a vegetarian? That doesn’t sound right
Sorry for your loss 🙏💐that is insane! Thank you for sharing this information to us
How does one become B1 deficient? Was she fasting?
@Heartstarts2poundAlcohol, carbs, Sugar, stress, lack of sleep, diuretics, damaged liver and different medications.
@ByzantineGod No, she ate meat and eggs, she ate well.
How many people love and appreciate this YouTube channel
❤
Amazing🔥💯💯💯💯
well post that comment and we’ll find out
Myself as a devout Christian believer in Jesus Christ believes Dr. Eric Berg is a man walking in his God given professional calling. There are so many people out of work and can’t afford a doctor and he is such a blessing to this country. I can’t say enough about this man over the years that I’ve followed him he has been such a blessing to me.
God bless you Dr. Berg!!! God made you for such a time as this. The US is in deep trouble with its health due to this deadly man-made food supply.
Me 😊
Man I love this white board videos
I’m sooo confused 😮😢
Dr. Berg is one of the best YouTube doctors. If you watch him, Dr Hampton and Dr Berry, you can change your life. Amazing! Thank you, Dr. Berg.
I think I will fast more, take some milk thistle…This is too complicated. With all the other vitamin supplements that are said to be needed. Maybe detox slowly first and stick to low carbs and unprocessed.
Hi, that sounds like a smart plan. Fasting occasionally, supporting the liver with things like milk thistle, eating low carb unprocessed foods, and introducing supplements slowly can help your body adjust without feeling overwhelmed.
52 here. I used b6 to reduce prolactin. It works at high dosages. But can negatively influence nerves. Now new protocols

I will get them this week. Thx
That’s were I get your supplements
Dr do you have an opinion on olive oil for health benefits?
Thanks!
Thanks
I literally had generalized muscle twitches so badly for months!!! I thought I was losing my mind, it’s stress, too much caffeine, I couldn’t sleep, deficient in all these nutrients etc…I did blood work and all nutrients normal…so I did SOOO much research and came to the conclusion it was b6 toxicity and it was in my normal daily b vitamins bottle. I stopped all B and most of the twitches subsided almost within the week or two. I still get them frequently but not like it was before!! So glad dr berg did this video to confirm my own research on b6 & 12. Thank you Dr. Berg!! ❤
May I suggest:
Rule out RLS. Sneaky and also toxicity driven. I had full body tremors at my worst. I wanted to die. Thriving now that my metabolism is healthy again. I came back from half past dead 🎉
@sus@susiemiller2621less leg syndrome? What were u taken that’s driving RLS? Thats how I felt! Almost like I wanted to crawl out of my body it was genuinely concerning. I was thinking I had ALS or something making them spasm. But interestingly I noticed when it started but since it was over the holidays I thought it was stress related. I lived 5 months this way until I asked google if there are any vitamins that would cause nerve issues with too much instead of a deficiency and b6 was the first thing. And also what did you do to get yourself back on track? Thank you for sharing I was and still desperate…I’m not 100% yet but significantly better not taking any more B vitamins.
