Today, I'm going to tell you why I eat four eggs a day and why you should do this too.
The nutrition of an egg is determined by how the chicken is raised and by what it's fed. I recommend getting organic pasture-raised eggs. Getting your eggs from a farmer's market is a great idea or even raising your own chickens for eggs.
It's important to note that I do not eat eggs for breakfast. I eat them for a late lunch because I fast breakfast. It's also important to consume the whole egg vs. only egg whites.
Heating an egg can destroy some of the carotenoids. To maximize the nutrition of the eggs, it's great to have them poached or over-easy. If you like them scrambled, it's best to crack them inside of the pan and allow the whites to turn white before scrambling them.
If you're a small person, you may want to consume one or two eggs a day. If you're a larger person, you may want to consume three or four.
Health benefits of eggs:
• Eggs are a great source of protein
• Eggs contain choline
• Eggs contain lecithin
• Eggs have vitamin K2, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin A
• Eggs are rich in omega-3 fatty acids
• Eggs are loaded with B vitamins
• Eggs have minerals and trace minerals
• Eggs contain carotenoids

Thanks for watching! I hope this helped explain the benefits of eggs and why you should start eating more of them.
I love that my neighbor allows his chickens to “free range” onto my property and even said if I feel like cooking one he’s more than fine with it. We trade food and favors all the time. Also great pest control around my house. I love thy neighbor.
Cooking an egg or a chicken?
Just an idea to help him out. I save all my egg cartons for a friend with chickens he always tells me he is thankful for that. Otherwise he said he needs to buy them.
Great pest control sounds great love it ! Thanks
My great grandfather was supposedly stabbed to death over an argument about a chicken going onto the neighbor's property. "You stole my chicken", etc. Guessing times were hard.
@@christineescajeda3776 also fertilizer for the soil!
I also eat 4 eggs a day. Normally in an omelet with cheese and spinach. Normally about 2PM. By definition it is still Breakfast as it BREAKS my Fast
ya ya ...
Is omelet healthy for u I eat it everyday but is it actually healthy
@@KD400_ yes it is
@@LuisC7 Depends on what you put in it. Other than that, an omelet is just an egg.
@@LuisC7 I meant fried is fried omelet good for u
3 to 4 whole eggs daily since three years after you encouraged me. Before that I was afraid of its cholesterol. But after daily consumption of 4 eggs my cholesterol, blood pressure even got better. Thank you Sir Berg for the awareness
Never be afraid
@@dutchhustler187fact's
the cholesterol you've been afraid of the one that came from the junk you've been eating prior to your Keto
Great, thanks Could you please share what else you eat with 3-4 eggs. Like a full meal plan of eggs? Thank you😮
I EAT 2-3 BIO EGGS A DAY MY COLESTEROL IS SUPER < 200
Where I live in Croatia there are vending machines for almost all farmer products including eggs, so you can just get eggs from local farmers from a vending machine. Also anywhere outside of cities there are tons of chickens everywhere, outside of main roads usually they can roam freely around the villages

My grandpa ate eggs every morning. He lived to be 92. Died from pneumonia. But his autopsy said he had a heart of a healthy 40 year old man ! 👍🏻 But he also did NOT eat sugar, he ate lots of fish and no cereals or bread. Lots of veggies and with those eggs, he had bacon !
..best diet in the world. Your Grandpa is proof of it
@@erikschaepers Yep. I try and follow that diet. Although I only eat bacon about 1-2 times a month. Although I do use real bacon bits on my salads. 😁
Is bread bad or you or something?
Is there a way he could of been more healthy to beat pneumonia?
terrible advice to encourage people to eat that many eggs daily, it is loaded in cholesterol - a NORMAL healthy liver SHOULD in theory downregulate and upregulate cholesterol - unfortunately some people do not properly regulate cholesterol, in the case you cannot downregulate cholesterol production, you must limit your consumption of dietary cholesterol - so the whole eat that many eggs daily is not for everyone..............because it is not safe for everyone.
Dr. Berg, I went on your fasting diet and ate a lot of things you suggested. I want to thank you because no other Doctor gave me the advice that you have. I figured out I was insulin resistant from watching all your Diabetic Vids. I am type II diabetic, WAS overweight. I went from 267 down to 212 and still losing. I take a small shot of good virgin olive oil, coffee in the morning and around 12-1 I have eggs for lunch with an english muffin. Eat a sensible dinner at 6 and don't eat till the next day, sometimes I cheat and have a little ice cream. lol. My A1C is 5.6 and my sugar in the morning ranges from 85 to 95. I went from a 40 waist down to almost a 34. All i had to do was follow your direction, in which I did and have not felt as good as I do now!! So, THANK YOU my friend...
You deserve it keep working don’t give up!
Where i can find the fasting diet?
Great work and nice to see you haven't gone over the top and still eat some ice cream. That's the perfect balance. Eat well, walk often, treat sometimes!
Thanks for sharing your story Marc. It's very encouraging.
All natural peanut butter sprinkled with some salt and/or cacao nibs is a great ice cream alternative. Add some banana or whatever. Sometimes I dip apple slices.
I eat eggs everyday. I love eating eggs and was never afraid of any cholesterol issues even when I had not seen any videos on consuming eggs.
U R so easy to listen to and to understand everything you say. Thank you for all you do for all of us.
From the description below the video. Health benefits of eggs: • Eggs are a great source of protein • Eggs contain choline • Eggs contain lecithin • Eggs have vitamin K2, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin A • Eggs are rich in omega-3 fatty acids • Eggs are loaded with B vitamins • Eggs have minerals and trace minerals • Eggs contain carotenoids
Essentially a complete superfood source,
Don’t tell the bad stuff about eggs though lmao

My grandparents have chicken running around in the wild and whenever they give me eggs I can immediately tell the difference. Each egg looks different but the taste is way better than eggs from the supermarket. Same goes for vegetables. We grow salat, potatoes, onions, paprika and tomatoes at home. Many people do here in Austria. Wish you all the best!
They do not taste different. Eggs are eggs. Duck eggs are richer, goose eggs are peppery, but eggs are eggs.
@@mypointofview1111 lol. Maybe not to you.
@@mypointofview1111 They definitely do taste different !
I guess you have not eaten true free range eggs then.
Yes, they do taste different. Here in India, we raise local/country chickens which are native to India. Their eggs definitely taste different compared to the store-bought ones.
Thank you so much, in this medicinal induced health frenzy of most doctors, these videos are so refreshing.
you give amazing value and very well concluded info and research thank you much for your valuable content.
This explains a lot. I stopped buying chicken because it has no flavor. It’s not the chicken I ate as a child in the 60’s.
That could also be because as one ages, one's tastebuds get weaker and you dont feel as much taste as a child. Same for smells.
@@dailybls nah
Our chickens are delicious. They are usually young roosters from a heritage or mixed breed, and they have way more flavour than commercially raised meat birds!
It has no flavour probably cause you don’t season your food🤣🤣
I am 57 and all meat taste bad to me now. Especially pork. 😝 Also other foods aren’t as good as they used to be. Its part of getting old. My Mom did the same thing.
I've been eating whole eggs for over 20 years and my cholesterol levels are stellar. My Dr. told me "Whatever you're doing, keep doing it because your levels are fantastic". I never believed the FDA hype years ago that eggs were bad for you. They always have to have a food enemy to demonize so they can stay relevant.
Whole egg?
@@zakattack467 just means the whole egg (yolk and white)
How did you prepare your eggs?
What ever these demons like FDA reommend, you do always oposit and you will be fine.
What brand of eggs do you suggest?
Amazing video! Would love to hear about other proteins absorption rates. Specifically brown rice and pea protein
I raise my own Coturnix quail and had been doing a couple raw eggs added into vegetable juice with a dash of cayenne pepper and a squeeze of lemon everyday for breakfast. I haven’t in some time now I need to start again. Thanks for sharing!
I love this video! ❤️ It’s a slap in the face to the media who tried to say that eggs cause blood clots 😂
The media?! Who trusts the media?
@Vickie Dawn if its a matter of what is true than why are you basing your obviously racist beliefs on bronze age mythology? Don't answer that, you're clearly an unhinged troglodyte
@@TheVideoIsLongEnough there is nothing wrong with being proud of being born Caucasian. None of us had any control over this whatsoever so the fact you pulled out the old and stale race card says way more about your jealousy and insecurities than anything else.
My family had 5 chickens for about 5 years. They were the best eggs I have ever eaten, and store bought eggs are just not the same since. They also kept bugs out of our garden because they instantly ate them all.
Not many people know that, but they pretty much eliminate all ticks in the area because they love them
Cooool
@@Aaron-kj8dv In addition they are dog friendly. If you have a yard, a dog, a chicken will be a plus. It is also the solution to your dog's loneliness or boredom.
Imagine these days a random retarded brain-dead women - on social media spreading the words that eggs are not good for your health ! - but sure MD is ! :)) - I was shocked to see how many idiots are out there and believed that girl and share that video without asking any questions !
Yup I concur with everything you said after owning 4 backyard chickens, but the POOP oh man we couldn't get over the poop it was everywhere and it attracted swarms of flies it made our backyard unbearable.
My chickens love home grown cabbage and I often add catnip to their organic grain which really chills them out. They produce extra large eggs that are so tasty.
I love you so Dr. Eric Berg! You are a angel for all the people that can’t pay for this beautiful video and instructions. God bless and protect you and your beautiful family always.🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have family in Greece. Whenever I go I always notice the egg yoke color is extremely vibrant and looks nothing like the color we see here in the states. It's extremely orange and you can actually taste that there's more nutrition in the yoke itself. They are raised on plant based feed and can roam their asses around and one farmer I went to was feeding them alfalfa. best frikin eggs ive ever tasted.
Im greek to and whenever i go to Greece we get eggs from our neigbours they do indeed taste so good
Everything's better in Greece
Free range chicken eggs have dark colored yokes and taste way better than store bought eggs
American food is slow death by disease compared to European and Mediterranean food. That's what happens when the corrupted guberment is involved in everything.
What does „more nutrition“ taste like?
Because I really listen to all your excellent advice and I changed completely how I eat, I lost 50 pounds in the last 4 months! I feel Great, I was 290 feeling horrible with no energy, now I feel like I can do all the things I used to do 30 years ago! Thanks Dr Berg, I wish all the doctors I seen over the years would explain things the way you do. God Bless You. ❤👍
This is so wonderful! You literally changed the course of your life - WELL DONE 👏🏽
Health is your wealth
That's awesome! I went from 293 to 218 in 9 months. A relative said she almost didn't recognize me. That was a great compliment, I think.
hey can u sum up ur diet bro bc im chubby and its hard for me to loose weight and gain muscle plz give tips thanks
@@devenadajania1518 I watched my carbs and sugar intake, that was the main thing because before I changed my eating habits I was eating a lot of fast foods, pizza,pasta and drinking lots of coke...now splenda in my coffee, blueberries or raspberries for breakfast or hard boiled eggs, if I am hungry at all now,but when I started that's what I ate...lunch I would drink a premier protein drink only 1 gram of sugar, dinner would be my main meal, big salad with salmon, tomato, avocado on spring mix...next day tuna instead of salmon, grilled chicken then back to salmon. I love what I'm eating and don't miss the junk anymore. Now in morning I'm just drinking coffee, and protein drink at 2pm, 4pm the salad...sometimes at 6pm a handful of pecans. Find what you like, just watch carbs and sugar! Good Luck and stick with it👍
Dear Dr. Berg, I love your videos, they are a very precious inspiration to me. Thank you very much for your valuable and thorough work!

There are a lot of doctors giving good info, You just have to look for them.
@@bigguy130 I'm going with: the FDA
@@ilbullymomma Sounds about right, sad to say.
Dr. Sten Ekberg also has good information, and I think Dr. Berg has mentioned him once or twice. Dr. Berg is still the better researcher, in my opinion, and his videos are much easier to 'digest,' if you will, because they're so much shorter and more frequent. Dr. Ekberg makes videos that are 30+ minutes, and I don't have the necessary attention span, unfortunately. He does offer very, very good information, though, very much in line with Dr. Berg's. He speaks rather slowly, both to let information sink in, and because he's Swedish, so English isn't his first language, and by his own admission, he has to really think of the words he wants to use. Just wanted to make you aware that there is at least one other good, conscientious physiologist out there who is also working hard to inform people of the dangers of foul food practices, wrong and harmful foods and products, and who does his own research, just like Dr. Berg does.
My 88 year old mother has been eating two eggs over easy her entire life. No cholesterol problems ever. I guess I should consider growing a couple of chickens after hearing I can give her three or four eggs now! ❤️
You should get at least 6-7 chickens then. They don't always lay daily
You can raise chickens, but you can't grow them!
@@jamessephar9458 Tell that to the Doc. He said grow them.
I used to have pet chickens who free ranged all day and I gave them a grain based feed with no added colourings and no nasties. The colour of their egg yolks was like the sun. Literally a glowing beautiful rich yellow. The supermerket eggs (which are coloured to be orange in Australia) even the organic ones looked pale and faded and basically sick in comparison.
I bought from the local farm and it was orange
@@louistocasuche5708 As I said they give them feed with colouring in it.
Yeah exactly. I’m in Australia too and home chooks have bright yellow and doesn’t taste eggy like the dark orange yolks from the shops
@@crescendo2441 but the feed didn't have coloring in them
@@louistocasuche5708 Did you actually read the ingredients list?
Nice video. I have been making more sunny side up fried eggs, since one of your recent videos mentioned that this style is more beneficial.
Dr. Berg thank you! I love the fact that you are not limiting yourself to only taking care of you, your family and your 6.6 million patients but also animals as well and the soil. Healthy soil, healthy us!

@@WorldExplorersClub that makes sense.
I believe it. Eating my two eggs per day or three sometimes has actually helped me lower my cholesterol. Seriously! My doctor actually encouraged me to eat them daily because he said being completely satisfied and well nourished by the eggs, actually prevented me from eating donuts and sugar foods that hurt my body! So yeah, enjoy your eggies!🖖🙏♥️
Men need cholesterol for production of testosterone

Hello Mark so are eggs good for neuropathy. Thank you very much.
How did you get rid of peripheral neuropathy? I have had it for 7 years and doctors have to this day not found the cause. No diabetes. On healthy keto taking many supplements such at benfotiamine b vitamins and alpha Linoleum acid and more. ....

2 to 3 Eggs & avocados with chicken sausage were all I ate every morning for over 2 years, following a keto based regimen in an attempt to get my A1c out of pre-diabetic range. But my numbers and my body felt like it plateaued. Weight was stable but more concerning was that I was experiencing more constipation. In an effort to change it up, I'm now doing vegan 3 to 4 days a week (more fruit, legumes, veggies) and it's only been a month but it's been a game changer. Weight is down, body fat is almost gone. I haven't been this lean since high school. Most importantly my sugars are down, less peaks and troughs, no lethargy after bad carbs and no more constipation. This won't work for everyone but worth trying to change it up especially if you're dealing with pre or diabetes type 2.
I also eat 5 or 6 eggs everyday, help me to loss 60 lbs while building some muscles, actually i started this habit last year after i saw your video about eggs brnefit. Thanks dr berg.

@@thomasrains5108 well i'm just buying regular eggs at supermarket cuz the omega3 cost double and organic one cost triple the regular egg. Just like dr berg said if you can buy organic or straight to a local farmer will be better.
@@leonrodriguez1714 Usually just boiled them for 10 mnts with small fire, but make sure the yolk still mushy.
Been eating eggs for years. I never bought into the crap belief that eggs were bad for you. Just nonsense. I'll never forget my nutritionist 20 years ago told me I can have eggs everyday and it's solidified my belief that I could, and then when I checked in with my doctor she was horrified when she found out I was eating eggs and butter everyday. Told me your cholesterol is high. Here, I'll show you and put me in for a blood test, and my cholesterol actually went down and my weight was down. Needless to say she didn't have much to say after that.
I love hearing about moments like this.
Some white coats have to lie in order to keep their jobs and license
@@alrightnow7248 My doctor was, at the time, of the old school belief that eggs would cause heart disease. I have to admit before I was really educated I went back and forth a few times. Now there are times I eat just the yolks and maybe one egg out of four is a whole egg. My nutritionist told me I could eat a lot of fat, as long as I stayed away from a lot of carbohydrates, and those carbohydrates should be complex like brown rice, baked potatoes, sweet potatoes, and really anything gluten free. My white coat didn't really know any better, because they don't teach them nutrition, they just teach them what the organs are, somewhat how the systems work, drugs, and the surgeons had to cut. That's it.
@@trotskyite1 Correct. However, not all medical doctors subscribe or prescribe to the same nonsense they were taught. Some do their own research and do the right thing by promoting healthy lifestyles. One of those is proper nutrition

Dr Berg, I just wanted to say. I love your shows. Also, this new video process is much better. You look so much more healthy! You’re reversing in age! I just put my parents on your videos. Thank you for being awesome!
Began homesteading in 2018...process our own meat birds (broilers) and allow 30+ layers to free range. Always have plenty of eggs/chicken...Highly recommend this life. Thank you for your amazing videos!
Nice informative video ! Had an uncle that sold eggs. He bought from venders who pasture raised their chickens next to cows and pigs etc. By the 1970s he had a substantial following at a local grocery store chain. When he passed away the business died.
Dr. Berg, Much appreciated for the truth because it's something we are lacking nowadays. I too eat between 2 to 4 eggs everyday for years an my cholesterol was 198. I think you should be the CEO of the American ❤ association. FACTS ARE NEEDED!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
I add flax seed to our chicken feed and it ups the omega 3 and it gives a beautiful orange yolk. Coupled in with the free ranging on the pasture, it's why I eat 4 eggs. Free Run is uncaged but within a building but still on straight grains. Free Range is pastured. Love this channel
if you are man don't eat flax seeds
Just eat the flax seed but grind it first.
@@reeeuben1935 well its good for the chickens too
I can’t wait for the new channel. This will be very interesting to learn how to produce food the right way. Keep up the amazing work Dr.
I am vegetarian, in England and regularly eat Organic,free range "British" eggs. There is no mention in the video of boiling eggs; my regular means of eating them. I'd like to know what happens when boiling, whether for a runny yolk(seems the most beneficial) or "hard" boiled.
That was a eggcellent opening of the video, love your channel! Keep it going doc
My chickens are spoiled with forest and pasture and every thing a chicken could need or want. I spend all my time watching over them. When i eat their eggs i feel an uplifting energy and mood. The aminos in the natural chicken are amazing.
I raised some chickens in the past, naturally/organically & the yolks had a darker yellow more orange color and they tasted amazing! So honestly when I see a bright yellow yolk now I think twice! Also, I'm lovin' the beard & stache!!!
did you pasturraise them
Do you feed them crack
You can feed wheat grains
We don't get organic.. orange yolk in india.. so wat should I do
How much does it cost to buy and raise chickens?
Thank god for me. I live in Ireland and I eat as close to the ground as possible. Our food here is not as screwed up as USA.
Thanks for this video! I watched this in late April and began eating 4 eggs with some meat & spinach for breakfast everyday, also watched a lot of your other videos and began working towards a keto lifestyle and intermittent fasting.

Up til April I hadn't eaten eggs in 3 years, they always made me sick. Found out it was the combo of eggs with carbs that was making me sick. Again, thanks so much.
why the combo of eggs and carbo?
@@lorenzo6505Love eggs and carbs. Been doing it for 30 years. All blood test are good and my lifting is great!

This is why I began raising chickens a decade ago. With the recent eggs shortage couple with 58 million birds put down just in the states and no end in sight ... Im thankful I did.
My chickens have 3 acres to roam everyday. The eggs do have great color and are too big to fit in a regular egg carton. I just bought 8 more layers. Thanks for the information.
My breakfast consists of 4 eggs, 500g of spinach, a can of chickpeas and some butter on top. Love it, lasts me all day hunger-wise and is very healthy and low in carbs.
There's 60 net carbs in a average sized can of chickpeas with 3.5 servings of 1/2 cup. That's not low carb. Everything else is though.
just keep eating what you're eating. the healthiets people in the world/ age up too 100 years eat carbohydrates. Dr.Eric Berg does give good information thoug.
Half a kilo of spinach! How do u do that??😮
haha i just went to check the size packets i buy, 120g is a full bag 200mm x 200mm. He must be weighing it after its boiled@@OOOUZ
how can you eat 500gm of spinach in single sittig , do you even know how that much is
Thank you Dr Berg for validating my belief of good nutrition in eggs! I've been a nurse for 40 yrs, and do not agree with very much in the medical realm. Always do your own research, right now it's all about profit and treating symptoms, but this is soon to change, thank God, Blessings to you sir!

@@tyv1383 lol ?
Every industry these days has been profit driven and not caring about the people’s well being and environment. I hope that’ll change someday.
@@tyv1383 it will change, because we are all aware.

I can't believe all this time i thought eggs were harmful when eaten every day. Thanks doc for sharing this. Much appreciated it!
I think it depends on the eggs too as he mentioned in the video.
Same. I saw a video saying it increases risk of colon cancer by a crazy amount. My daughter is also allergic to them for now. So I had cut them out for 2 years. But I’m back eating them again and I missed them so much.
Anything can be bad for you if you consume too much of it. Even water. But two to four eggs a day is perfect. The egg is natures most perfect food. Along with black GRAM.
@@fender1000100 i think meat is nature’s most perfect food. A lot of people are allergic to eggs. Never heard of some one being allergic to meat.
A lot of the negative things that were said about eggs was propped up by the beef industry, and of course the msm ran the propaganda for them, just like now with everything else.
Another great video, Dr Berg. I love eggs, particularly soft-poached with runny yolks. Fantastic source of protein and vitamins/minerals.
Thanks. Glad you like eggs too. Enjoy there!
@@Drbergeww
OK, Poached, Scrambled, but I like mine Boiled. I try to keep the yoke runny but doesn't always happen. At what point is boiled too long? If at all? Thanks
Thank you about the discussion of the free-range, and other classifications of how chickens are raised. Pasture-raised is the way to go.
Sure !! and how do you know they are free range. Studies have been done on organic and non organic. Guess what - no difference (except you are paying double). World is full of pranksters and con artists.

@@MrSupersia yep. Just drink em 🗿🗿
Me too
when I was diagnosed as type 2 I was also told I had high cholesterol and a fatty liver . I went on a high fat low carb diet and I eat 5 eggs a day for 2 years . My last physical showed my blood sugar ,cholesterol and fatty liver are all good . I've lost over 100lb and have taken no medication whatsoever it's all down to diet and exercise.
That's great news. What else do you eat?
Fantastic job, did you get your doctor to accept that or did you just ignore them? I have an endless struggle making my gp accept the concept!
I am so excited to see this comment, because I have fatty liver and also have 40+ free ranging chickens who give me 24+ eggs per day. They run all day on five acres soaking up sunshine and chasing bugs living their best life.
Our ladies enjoy sunflower seed treats and all our veggie trimmings from our garden. Beside their feed they get Kale, chard, lettuce, artichoke leaves, rhubarb leaves, - amazingly dark yolks.
I eat 4 a day too ... but raw, organic, in a coconut-milk & collagen shake. US supermarket eggs are kept and sold chilled. UK's are not because they are not washed and still retain their natural, barrier membrane -- but buyers are advised to refrigerate after purchase.
Since I was a teenager, I eat a minumun of 20 eggs a week - and up to 40, including ones that are part of other dishes I make. In the 80's people always told me I "would get fat" and "have high cholesterol" . Almost forty years later, I still have very LOW cholesterol, and a high good cholesterol. Other than +/- 5 or so pounds, I've been the same weight since high school and can wear Levi's that I've had since then - and have a 21.5 BMI. I've noticed that in the past few years more and more health professionals are also realizing the benefits or eating eggs. 😊
I, too, have always eaten at least two eggs daily from childhood, (now over 60). I noticed the difference very quickly if for some reason I "lapsed", (as when they were in the doldrums in the 80s), and quickly restored them to my diet on the grounds that my body knows best.

Hi Doc, You truly are a brilliant man and your videos are outstanding. Thank you so much for your hard work that you could bring to all your subscribers. I appreciate everything you do and I watch as much as I possibly can you truly are a genius at work…
Thank you, Dr. Berg , for sharing your knowledge. I have stopped eating meat altogether. But I try to eat eggs 3 times a week, I don’t care for them either. I’m glad to know the benefits of eating eggs. I usually cook them with vegetables in an omelette. I’ve given up dairy as well except for a little butter. I eat non starchy vegetables, lots of those.
Really enjoy your channel, thank you for your advice!
Thanks for watching!
I am a vegetarian and include eggs in my diet. I notice a huge difference in home/farm raised chickens eggs that that are fed garden and kitchen scraps and are free ranged... Beautiful, thick, humped, bright orange yolks. I give chickens brassica leaves, moringa, chickweed, some tomatoes, squashes, cucumbers, sweet potato vines, kitchen scraps and more
Hi ,,if are a vegetarian please watchh my viideo ..❤️❤️

I'm really looking forward to your coming chicken feed video. We will be getting our first chickens in the next 6 mos. Very motivated to raise them well for the most nutritious eggs.
Thanks for this information, Dr. Berg. I breakfast with eggs everyday, my favorite is, of course, easy over. You always have the best videos and very informative!!
Really really love the new idea about growing your own food
Thank you! This confirms further to me that eggs are an incredible superfood. When I got diagnosed with T2 diabetes about 18 months ago I immediately adjusted my diet. I started eating eggs every morning. My doctors (primary and endocrinologist) said go easy on eggs, no more than 5 per week. I went from 2 a day to 3 and then 4 and I still do 4 a day and they are JUMBO eggs. I also usually have bacon with it (2-3 strips). When I went back after 3 months of 3-4 eggs per day (and I have been on a statin) my cholesterol, triglycerides had dropped from very high to mid-normal range. Next 3 months later they dropped to low normal. That's after INCREASING my eggs intake. I do 4 a day still, missing a day here or there but almost every day. And bonus - they are DELICIOUS. I thought I'd get sick of eggs but I haven't. And my health has improved, including my diabetic retinopathy (because I understand the lutein in eggs helps eyes so I credit the eggs with that). Thanks for spreading the word. Oh, and my doctors? when I told them I was having 4 eggs per day they both then said (independently of each other, not knowing what the other said) - "keep eating the eggs". Exactly that, they said!!!! They know it is a superfood but I think they're guided to be overly cautious and are a little afraid to tell people to eat them. Thank God for doctors like you who spread the truth about this superfood!!! I am thoroughly convinced - it's been 18 months and my health has only gotten better! By the way they removed me from taking insulin a year ago and just reduced my metformin by half 3 months ago!
@Jul I think, in fairness to the doctors, they tell people how to do natural things to control their diabetes but then most diabetics don't do it at all. Then the doctors become jaded and quickly move them onto medication and/or insulin. Everyone, just about, that I have met and that I know who is diabetic does NOT carefully watch their diet even though they know they're supposed to. One of them even says "Well I'm on metformin anyway so I might as well just let that do its work!!!" So it's not really the doctors, in my opinion. My doctor makes nothing from me taking metformin or insulin. My doctor actively tries to get me off of both of those. But my doctors also deal with dummies like my friends who don't want to change their diets. Here you have a video of a doctor telling people to eat eggs. Most will NOT listen. If they were his patients he'd have no choice but to put them on medication if they don't listen to his instructions on how to NATUALLY manage their diabetes.
@Kenji Polk Audio I’m bad I add a tablespoon of butter to my 4 eggs everyday.
Please look into statins, there is awful things they do to you, like give you Alzheimer’s, and the good stuff they do supposedly is very very sketchy, please research, they are not good for u. Have a nice day.
Brilliant, well done! Eggs are a complete protein,, they contain all 9 essential Amino Acids, building blocks of protein as do soya beans,. I eat organic, these are the only two compete protein foods.
That's fantastic!
Dr.Berg .your teaching videos help me adjust my eating habits . I have noticed commendable changes in my health since two months.
Any recommendations or videos on why some people can’t eat eggs,cheese, sour cream, butter and dairy in general without digestive issues ? my wife gets terrible stomach issues and many trips to the bathroom after consuming dairy and it really sucks because it really limits her diet . she’s a type 1 diabetic & any advice would be greatly appreciated ! TY
Dr Berg you "Crack" me up with your humor and your comments that "shock" us when we hear you say it! I have eaten more eggs bcz of your teaching... I have gastritis etc and it's been one food I can digest, slowly but it does .. I am now eating them for my B1 vitamin and other B vitamins... Thank you again!

Hi. I have been eating 3-5 eggs daily since 2020. I have a Child born also born in 2020, and i have not been sick since i started eating eggs daily. My wife started this year, but she got all the sickness my daughter brought home from kinder garden. I also work out 4 times a week, went down almost 20KGS (from 100 to 80) - BUT iam stronger now than before(i did workout 4 times a week before 2020 also) Im feeling better than ever, eggs changed my life, and i am also sugarfree and eat healthy besides the eggs👍
I have my own laying hens, which I feed with selected natural feed. Every day we get up to 10 eggs from the nest. And the whole family eats these eggs. Of course, for the price, these eggs are more expensive than regular ones from the supermarket. But even the taste of our homemade eggs is completely different.
My grandfather lived to 96. He ate many eggs every day all his life. No cholesterol issues whatsoever. Pasture raised organic Eggs are nothing but super healthy for you 👍🏻

I have been on Daily 2 x Half-Boiled Eggs since a kid, I'm now 65; though I'm diagnosed with Diabetes Type 2 reading HbA1c@6.6 & POCT 7.0, Weight 74 kg, Height 1.74m. My BP reading is 110/70. My Cholesterol current readings are: Total Cholesterol: 3.9 Triglycerides: 1.24 HDL: 1.14 LDL: 2.22 Total Ratio: 3.44 My daily diet now: Breakfast: 4 pieces of Multigrain Bread, Coffee powder 4g with Coffee-mate 5g & No Sugar, 3 x Half-Boiled Eggs (3 eggs have not been an issue thus far). Dinner: Basmati Brown Rice 40ml and some vegetables with fish or chicken. Also, 1 Green Apple after each meal. Once in awhile, a can of Coke - Zero Sugar. Go walk 5 to 10 km everyday. I do ankle down exercise for 30 minutes with arms swinging and walked about 5km a day (cannot but trying, aging).
I love poached eggs but I usually make an omelet with fresh veggies and herbs from my garden. However, it's "over easy" - I don't cook it as well done as the type of omelet you get in a restaurant. The yolks remain a little runny the way I cook it. However, I might try sauteing my veggies lightly and adding a lightly poached egg on top since that sounds healthier. I love pastured eggs but even more I love eggs from chickens from local folks who treat their chickens like pets. I would love to raise chickens one day.
When I got into nutrition and eating better I started to look at the nutritional content of different foods. I was blown away by how nutrient dense egss are. Whole eggs are a super food!
My grandmother's family were loggers and hog farmers they were raised day one on sausage bacon eggs beans and bread....all of it was raised organically....no heart disease or anything else....she had 10 children....and lived to be 89.
well that actually doesnt say anything about how healthy those foods are. there are people over 100 smoking ciggs. sausage and bacon for sure didnt contribute positively to her 89 years
@@ViniDaaPooh but I will bet they didn't smoke 2 packs a day either...because alot of it has to do with the exercise ur getting.
@@ViniDaaPooh pork is actually very good for you. Unfortunately you cannot trust mainstream media to be honest with you as there is an agenda. I implore you to do more research. They aren’t the healthiest cuts of pork but pork fat is good for you.
@@ViniDaaPooh It also doesn't implicate sausage and bacon as evil either. I think the implied point is that those particular foods have been pigeonholed as "bad for you" when I was growing up (in the 80's and 90's), eggs in particular. "don't eat the whites", "eat the whites, don't eat the yolk", "don't eat eggs at all... vegan is the only way" Years later, that breakfast we told grandma and grandpa to stop eating because it was bad for you (also... "no salting your food!") has come full circle as "okay, you can eat these foods again, just try to avoid the factory farmed versions" to "eat eggs for long life!" Science!

I love eggs and have been raising chickens for 40 years. I have found that the darkest yolks come from hens who lay brown eggs (at least during winter months mostly confined in the north) but when they get turned out in spring all the eggs have deeper orangey yellow yolks. I like your ideas about sprouting grains and grasses. In winter months, we have to feed grains, but your idea of sprouting would be a nice addition to the hens' feed. Thanks!
I raised chickens 🐓 for domestic use, they roamed 1/2 acre of dirt/sand plus grass, when I first saw the dark orange egg yolk, I thought that something was wrong with the eggs since I was use to store bought yellow yolked eggs. The only problem with free range chickens is their meat is tough, so, I used them for soup.
Poor chickens. You can't have eggs if you eat chicken soup!
I slice a tomato into disks. Sautee them in evoo with basil, parsley Italian seasoning as well as salt and pepper. Then I add a couple of eggs with cheese and milk and scramble them with the tomatoes. Serve on toast, preferably Italian or french bread sliced and toasted. Been my go to breakfast/lunch for awhile now.
Dr Berg. As someone who raises chickens, I cannot overstate the benefits of not feeding your chickens at all. Rather it is best to provide them with a composting mass such as laeves and grass clippings on which they can forrage. This will provide them with warmth, essential mycelium, bugs and potentially worms. In return they will supply you with super rich compost. The most they require from you is water, a safe roosting spot and nesting boxes. Hope you find this useful.
Am i to understand that you don’t give them any chicken feed at all? What type of climate do you live in? How large of an area do they have for free ranging? What about winter time? I’ve been considering trying this with my flock but i would like to hear more about how you are doing this. Thanks.
@@SuperheroArmorychannel I would like to know as well.
@@SuperheroArmorychannel Hi Dr Berg, That is correct. They are not given any feed when I have an ample mass of leaves, grass clippings and other compostable material. We live in North Idaho where the winters do not typically go below 10 degrees farhenheit with substantial snowfall. The composting of the mass provides significant warmth for the birds which, by the way, is amplified by their fecal waste. The chickens constantly forrage which helps keep the process going resulting in beautiful rich compost . Normally there is a more than amply of nutrients (bugs, worms, vegetation, and mycelium) to keep them much better nourished than with feed. It is an odd concept initially although consider any animal's natural diet. The chickens range within a fenced area of aproximately 100' x 100'. The ranging area is not particularly important while ample bio mass is. Hope this is helpful! Thanks for the great video content. Jim
@@jimbinger thanks for the information! A a few more questions: How many birds do you have in the 100’ x 100’ area? How many eggs do you get on average per day? Is there lots of grass growing in free range area? Or do the bird primarily feed from the compost material?
@@SuperheroArmorychannel We have 14 chickens (Novagen) and ,in the warmer months, we average 10 eggs per day. We don't provide artificial light during the winter thus production drops accordingly. The area of fenced space is much larger than necessary as it was previously enclosed to protect a garden. Relatively little space is needed for the process itself. The essential element is the size of composting mass one can accumulate. In a smaller mass supplemental feed might be needed but it might surprise you how the birds adapt. We learned of the principle through a video about a very large scale poultry composting concern in, I believe, New Hampshire. If I come across the video again, I'll be happy to forward the link. Cheers! Jim

For me, this is an eye opener. Thank you Dr Eric.
Been following you since last year. I was weighing 95kgs in January. Last week I was at 76kgs. I'm leaner, stronger, sleep better, more attentive.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="595">9:55</a> What an amazing doctor, he takes care of the chicken's digestion as well.
i do scrumbled organic free range eggs with butter, turmeric, black pepper, tomatoes, chopped garlic and sometimes spinach. I quite often use cheese on top to melt. Makes me feel strong!
I’m glad you mentioned how to cook eggs because according to a an article I read decades ago frying destroys the lethicin so I opt for poaching or boiling- with frying it’s too easy to have the temperature too high and lethicin may not be the only value destroyed - but the best thing about eating eggs is I can go all day without being hungry they satisfy so well
You can do braised eggs...butter and à tiny bit of water to make a "fried" egg
Since 2012 I've been consuming 3-5 eggs a day. Thats what I usually eat as my food for the duration of my work day. I deviated from that since the pandemic and switched to work from home. I gained close to 30lbs since then
Sadly so have I. I am desperately trying to get this unhealthy weight off Again.... 🤔
@@SherryKWillette same here. I went up as high as 220lbs. Working my way down to at least 185lbs. I'm an avid cyclist, both trail and road. Works wonders when I really do it consistently. Try it
I feel your pain. That’s the only drawback of working from home. Lol
@@SherryKWillette look into the Keto diet..not easy to reduce carbs to the point where you almost eliminate them but I did it for 3 months after I injured my foot and dropped a good amount of weight strictly due to this change. I’ve since added some carbs back to get more fiber (constipation during strict keto was a big drawback). Two other things that helped me trim down were no snacking between meals (used to be a snacker) and also being mindful to time when you eat I.e. 4-5 hour intervals. All of these things have helped me and hopefully they help you.
@@wolfofwacker4578 add cardio and some calisthenics exercise into that diet to avoid to flappy excess skin. Dropping significant weight fast will make you look like a balloon loosing air. You feel and look good at the same time. 70% diet, 30% exercise
