Easily identify nutritional deficiencies with this free guide:
Discover 25 supplements that really work here:
1. Although benign, skin tags are common in people with diabetes or prediabetes. Reverse diabetes by decreasing carbohydrates and increasing high-quality protein.
2. Itchy private parts are often caused by fungal overgrowth. Take vitamin D to strengthen your immune system and stop the itching.
3. Nighttime restlessness is related to vitamin B1 deficiency, typically caused by a high-carb diet.
4. Tingling or numbness in the toes or bottoms of the feet is a nerve problem. Benfotiamine, taken four times daily, can help correct this problem.
5. Bleeding gums are related to vitamin C deficiency.
6. Chronic cough can be caused by a calcium deficiency or acid coming up the esophagus.
7. Carpal tunnel syndrome is often related to a vitamin B6 deficiency.
8. Brittle nails are usually caused by a biotin deficiency.
9. Cold feet and hands signify that you need more iodine.
10. Early morning problems such as leg cramps, migraines, and chest pain are related to magnesium deficiency. Take magnesium glycinate before bed as a remedy.
11. Ulcers and gastritis result from zinc deficiency. Zinc carnosine is the best form of zinc for this problem.
12. Nose bleeds are sometimes caused by high blood pressure, but can also be caused by a vitamin K1 or vitamin C deficiency.
13. Chest pain or pain down the left arm or shoulder is related to a vitamin E deficiency. Tocotrienols are the best remedy for these symptoms.
14. Raised bumps on the back of the arms are a classic vitamin A deficiency. Retinol, the active form of vitamin A, is only found in animal products such as liver, egg yolk, cheese, and cod liver oil.
15. Sodium deficiency can cause fatigue, insomnia, and weak muscles. Increase your salt intake if you’re experiencing these symptoms.
16. Decreased libido is often caused by a zinc deficiency. Take 50 mg of zinc a few times daily to solve this problem.
17. Dry, scaly skin is typically caused by too much omega-6 fat and not enough omega-3 fat. Increase your intake of cod liver oil, fish oil, and wild-caught sardines or salmon.
18. White dots on the nails are often caused by a zinc deficiency.

Thanks for watching! I hope this increases your awareness about vitamin deficiencies and their symptoms. I’ll see you in the next video.
Dr Berg is Legend 🔥🔥🔥
He is very hot as well I love Dr Berg
He’s not bad for a chiropractor 👍🏻
Love from Pakistan ❤ here is also some YouTube channels who translate your videos in Urdu like Dr Zee … Thanks for creating such content
Very nice and important information! 👏👏👏
Love that B1 & Magensium sketch up!
Question: Why are we here if we aren’t experiencing any of these?
Answer: Same reason people go to the circus or Disneyland.
to see midgets?
After watching the full video, I realized how many subtle symptoms—like itchy skin, brittle nails, or even restless legs—are actually signs of nutrient deficiencies, not aging. 🧠💡
Dr. Berg explains how simple fixes like more B1, magnesium, or zinc can make a massive difference.
It’s a powerful reminder: don’t treat the symptom, fix the root. Thank you for such a practical and eye-opening video!
Me and my brother had diabetes for years. I’ve found Dr.berg 2021 A Nurse told me that you can beat diabetes if you listen to Dr. Berg videos. Right away I trash everything in my kitchen even cheap vitamins, can food and more With the keto diet and walking My brother beat diabetes in a year 2022 come to find out he was doing lots more walking than me. Took me 2 years my weight and health problems are over with my Blood work results are always good Thank you Dr Eric Berg.
Amen
Blessings
Amen God is good
So my take on this is … quit the SUGARS ! 😂
All processed foods
That was the intended message, so you did as expected.
Refined sugar. Moderation on fructose; fruit or vegetable sugars
Just learned I’m prediabetic. Thank you so much for this video.
Itchy skin also related to perimenopause and menopause
Both these events increase our vulnerability to fungal infection.
Itchy scalp in perimenopause is driving me insane!! But my scalp looks normal
Yes!! My ears!!! Stop times soooo itchy. Jojoba oil helps
Same with nausea and tingling in hands.
I love Dr.Berg vitamins None of my MD has ever mentioned any vitamins problems to me .only vitamin D benefits my entire life. Dr Berg vitamins reviews are the Best.
❤ His vitamins ❤
This could be the docs best video yet. I appreciate how his stuff is short and to the point. I swear, some YouTubers must get paid by the minute of content & often repeat themselves.
Dr. Eric Berg has a large following, particularly on YouTube where his channel has over 13.6 million subscribers.
❤ 💯
❤
And that’s just his English speaking channel. He has many millions more in other languages across the globe!!
Absolutely brilliant breakdown by Dr. Berg. We live in a world where processed food, chronic stress, and screen addiction have become the norm, and our bodies are paying the price silently. Nutritional deficiencies are everywhere, but most people just mask the symptoms with pills instead of fixing the root cause. Watching this made me reflect deeply… and honestly, reading Youth Protocol by dr Voss after videos like this was a wake-up call. It goes even deeper into how modern life is designed to keep us deficient, tired, and dependent. Thank you, Dr. Berg, you’re one of the few actually waking people up.
Who else just randomly found Doctor Berg videos one day and had been watching ever since? 🥰🥰🥰
Me !!!
Been watching since he first started his vids .. found him looking for a Chiro
You are a treasure!! Thank you for all the info!!
Hey, I have followed your advice on magnesium and vitamin D3 with K2 to great success and I remember watching longer videos that focused on both of those individually where you explained why those specific types of Vitamin D and Magnesium were important to get.
While on that alone I am inclined to just trust you, could you make a video on Zinc carnosine to explain why it’s better and what all the different types of zinc do in comparison?
I just randomly came across Dr. Bergs videos !! He has helped me so much with high sugar levels .. weakness in my legs . Tired and weak body .. thank you sooo much Dr. berg !!’ You’re the best !!❤❤❤❤❤
OMG finally free from my health issues after using herbs I got from *DOC SESE* on YouTube channel”””😊
Great topic! i couldn’t sleep for like 3 weeks straight… every night same thing, eyes wide open, mind racing. work stress, relationship falling apart, everything piling up in my head like a storm. i started feeling like i’m not myself anymore. empty, tired, anxious 24/7. then one random night i found this book called Hidden Laws of Sleep by Rhys Quell. I started reading it and i don’t even know how to explain it but something clicked. it wasn’t some magic fix, but it showed me how to calm my mind. first time in a long time, i slept.
Hmm, interesting. I’ll def check the book out and give it a go. Glad you brought this up, thanks
this book was life-changing for me
one of the best books ive ever read, glad someone is talking about it
OMG finally free from my health issues after using herbs I got from *DOC SESE* on YouTube channel””””❤
My therapist told me to stop reading self-help books. Then I read this one and she literally asked for the title. Dead serious. It explains things in a way even she found useful.
Your definitely the “medicine man” in my tribe! thanks doc!
