The Dr. Berg Show LIVE - June 19, 2026 - LIVE NOW!
In a Nutshell
Dr. Berg recommends treating most conditions by restoring ancestral environments: acidifying the stomach for H. pylori and reflux, using magnesium to regulate calcium for vertigo and kidney stones, and removing grains/nuts/seeds to heal the gut lining. The core message is that chronic disease stems from mismatches between modern environments and our evolutionary biology, so fixing food, light, movement, and sleep environments is more effective than targeting symptoms or relying on willpower.

A 7-year-old underwent colonoscopy for polyp removal. The recommendation is to avoid grains (due to gluten irritation), nuts, seeds, processed foods, and oils. The small intestine has a single-cell layer that is easily damaged, allowing food to pass through and trigger immune system inflammation.
The suggested dietary approach is a clean version of keto, avoiding nuts and peanut butter.
True or false: You can absorb vitamin D from sunlight while sitting behind a window.
Answer: False. Glass filters out the specific UV light needed for vitamin D production. Glass also filters infrared light unless specially designed otherwise.
Vertigo may result from sinus congestion, allergies affecting the Eustachian tube, or calcium deposits breaking free from inner ear structures. Treatment involves:
