0:00 Introduction: Why anxiety isn’t in your head
0:29 Anxiety explained
2:16 Blood sugar anxiety

5:01 Poor sleep and chronic anxiety
6:48 Stimulants and anxiety
Anxiety has nothing to do with what's going on in your head and everything to do with what’s going on in your body!
Anxiety is a state or condition of worry, indecision, fear, and tension. Anxiety symptoms often involve feelings or concerns that something bad is going to happen. Anxiety interferes with your ability to feel comfortable in your own skin, your sleep, and your overall state of well-being.
Anxiety can directly affect your body, keeping you in a state of fight or flight. A heart rate variability test can determine how often your body is in this state.
So, what causes anxiety? Here are five common causes.
1. Low blood sugar
If your blood sugar is too low, you will have anxiety. When your blood sugar is low, your brain isn't getting fuel, which sends your body into panic mode. This increases cortisol and adrenaline, which causes the liver to release sugar so the brain can get fuel.
Removing sugar from the diet and replacing it with high-quality protein, healthy fats, and vegetables can help fix this issue.
2. Lack of sleep
Poor sleep increases cortisol, causing you to feel grouchiness, unnecessary worry, and anxiety. Blood sugar problems could also be the reason you aren’t sleeping well.
3. Low vitamin B1
Vitamin B1, or thiamine, is one of the most important vitamins for your nervous system and brain. Anxiety and nervous tension are often the result of a deficiency in this vitamin.
4. Stimulants
Too much caffeine affects your nervous system and depletes vitamin B1. Chocolate, coffee, and certain medications contain stimulants that can cause anxiety.
5. Low protein
Protein isn’t just important for fuel, it’s vital for our body’s biochemistry. If you feel better after eating protein, low protein could be the cause of your anxiety.

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you address your anxiety symptoms for good! I’ll see you in the next video.
This is what I’ve been telling my doctors but they don’t believe me
caffeine is big cause of anxiety
Get another Dr
Thank god I dont consume caffeine
Cat nip tea might help your anxiety. My late mother would make the tea for me to help relax and even for a tummy ache. I make cat nip tea to this day and highly recommend. Wishing you peace and love on your healing journey. 🙏💚🫂
@LesleyPullanthat’s the best thing I can do indeed
❤ Who else gets a sweet tooth after eating?
Sometimes but I’ll have a few berries or sugar free dark chocolate ❤
Only because as a kid i used to get dessert after dinner, now i don’t do it
For that you don’t need actual sugar in any form. Have some mini shake with erythritol and a little salt and no sugar, prepared for you to have after a meal. Thank me after applying this to your life.
I eat some butter, fat satisfied any craving.
Only occasionally when I also smoke cannabis. I never liked sweet stuff much, even as a kid.
I’m living proof that lifestyle changes can make a huge difference. After heart surgery and years of struggling with high cholesterol, I found Dr. Berg’s guidance to be life-changing. My LDL plummeted from 374 to 58! Triglyceride 72 over time. Just thinking about how much better. My life is doing keto diet.
He is a Life changer❤
@poppiengema2598 Amen
Yes change your environment and people around Go dark for 30 days. and watch improvements
Thats amazing 👏 proud of you
Wow! That is low LDL. Did you also take Statins?
Big Food and Big Pharma are “tearing people apart” 😢
Are family members are dying for what they have done to us!
Z10nism
No only you are tearing you apart.
@CJR434 Yep, we’re in control of what we eat. When we ignore nutrition labels and only eat what tastes good, we’re just “tearing ourselves apart.”
We are responsible for our own health, they are just taking advantage of our lack of knowledge. You are just a source of income for them, nothing more. They’re not going to tell you the actual reasons.
For years I was convinced that I had social anxiety. Turned out my thyrod-medication was too high and I did not even have thyrod issues. So I took it for 10 years without needing it.
@jenni230 So was there something masquerading as thyroid issues? How did you figure out you didn’t actually have thyroid problems?
I turn to the Lord when I’m anxious. I just ask Him for help and He takes it all away… Thank you, beloved Father. 💜 🙏 🕊️
HaHa!!
Tried that for 30 years, nada. I realized my belief had made it worse cause I was lying to myself. I came across ENERGY, how my thoughts, beliefs, attitude, words and actions had power, low frequency energy that made things worse. I needed to go to higher frequency positive life style, which I finally understood, I had within me. What Jesus tried to tell people of his day, “the kingdom is within us.” and for which he was murdered.
I’m trying but decades of prayer and I’m still waiting 😢
@lydiawall4018 Amen brother, that’s EXACTLY what he taught those around him, but in the generations thereafter, his true message is still UTTERLY misunderstood, his words taken waaaaay too literal. Eden is within, the Kingdom is within. On the outside of ourselves, in truth, NOTHING has ever nor will ever “exist” because it is all a VOID in which holographic mirroring materializes on macroscopic scale what truly exists (on microscopic scale) WITHIN US. The Sun is the ATOM in the center of our energetic being! It was called ATUM in Egypt, ANUM in Sumer, ATMAN in India and yes, ADAM in the Bible! It is the ATOM of creation, Adam specifically the cognate electric SPIRIT thereof, and “Eve” is its FEMININE otherhalve, the emotive SOUL in the magnetic center of its being. None of Genesis is truly to be understood literally because it is a PARABLE speaking in metaphorical tongue.
i already know it’s not mental…. it’s financial
So true. I just checked my bank account and a payment I wasn’t sure was coming through did. My anxiety instantly dissolved. Faster than B1!! Lol
Low adrenal function. For me boosting vit C helped a lot. As well as taking sups like ashwaganda, rhodiola and zinc to support my adrenal glands.

You are an angel in my life.Thank you 😊
i had bad anxiety, especially after drinking coffee. i believe celiacs disease was attacking my liver as my ALT was elevated.
DR BERG.IF I HAVE PROBLEM WITH SLEEP,SHOULD I TAKE MAGNESYUM GLYCENATE OR TO TRY MITAZARPINE SLEEP MEDICATION?PLS RESPOND DR. ERIC BERG.ELABORATE FOR ALL OF US.PLS
@danielpavel9420 I take the Mg glycinate. Game changer.
I have had it since I been little, even before I know what feelings were.
me too!
I wish more doctors would talk to people about nutrition and lifestyle versus pushing pills or giving antiquated advice.
With me it turned out to be Histamine-allergy and Salicylate-intolerance. My life changed so much after I went on a histamine- and salicylate-free diet. I
#1 & #2 describe EXACTLY how it was for me for SO many years! I’d wake up most nights with my heart racing, unable to turn off my brain for hours. Then I’d deal with the repercussions of the lack of sleep all day. I tried every supplement recommended for sleep, but nothing worked, even after going low-carb with intermittent fasting. It was not until I moved my meals to earlier in the day (last meal of the day at least 4-5 hrs. before bed), and do a 30-40 min. walk or yoga after dinner, that I completely fixed my insomnia and anxiety. It was just a blood sugar issue all those years! 🤦🏻♀️These days, I consistently sleep 8-9 hrs. straight thru without waking at all (unless we happen to have a late dinner … or cocktails). That small change, along with going low-carb, has been absolutely life-changing! ❤
I’m feeling anxiety from Dr. Berg blocking the list😅
😂 me too
lol. He does that all the time
Reading the description cured that anxiety for me.
😅
@paulis7319what list?
My panic attacks stopped when I eliminated processed foods from my diet. My blood sugar was way to high, so I brought it down to a daily average of 130. I eat mostly salads, and protein now. No bread, sugar, cereal, donuts or fast food. For carbs I’ll eat a potato with my eggs or make a pot of beans. I am building muscle and look a lot better. My brain works better, my teeth stopped hurting. My gums stopped bleeding. I just did not realize I was my own enemy.
Wow thats amazing! I need to try that !
Don’t kick yourself, we are taught the opposite or not at all. Good for you to do the research. Dr. Berg has helped so many of us.
I’ll send you a special diet, I only charge $50.
Could be all the soft metals that are dumped on us daily. Look up.
Alcohol i noticed triggers my anxiety.
Alcohol is known to deplete vitamin B1 as a possible or partial explanation.
Yes it’s bad for nerves later
I just want to share something. I’m almost in my mid 50s. I suspect I have ADD. I always had problem with anxiety, couldn’t focus and if I had too many task to finish my brain literally froze. Couldn’t fall asleep and if I did I always woke up few times during night. I took melatonin, Benadryl, valerian roots that helped little. So I bought this mushroom coffee that my coworker recommended. I won’t say the brand bc I don’t want to be accused of some kind of advertising. So I ordered and was drinking it for about two weeks maybe. Mg main goal was to feel good after becoming menopausal woman. So I started falling asleep like a baby, literally after 8pm i couldn’t keep my eyes opened and what is most amazing I slept all night without waking up! I am focused at work, no anxiety, clear thinking, everything finished on time even if I have tone to do. It is just amazing. And I was thinking what changed and then it hit me that I’m drinking this mushrooms. It is just amazing. I will mention it again I son’t have any affiliations with seller. I just want to share that it helped me and i want someone else to feel good.
What I have learned in 59 years; stay away from sugar, alcohol, junk food, & processed foods; I become
“bombproof” so calm…🙌🏽
Also dumped my statin
Honestly, in this nightmare oligarchic dystopia we’ve been forced into, and the seemingly inevitable WWIII that is approaching, people have to be crazy NOT to have anxiety.
