In this video, we’re going to talk about what I think is the most important white blood cell. There are numerous different white blood cells, but the T regulatory cell is the most important. This white blood cell is also called the T suppressor cell or Treg.

What’s unique about this type of white blood cell is that it does the opposite of other white blood cells—it suppresses the immune system. In turn, this gives the immune system balance and prevents the immune system from overreacting. It also helps reduce mucus.

T regulatory cells regulate self-tolerance. This means it helps prevent your immune system from attacking healthy cells. It allows your immune system to tell the difference between your own healthy cells and pathogenic cells. In turn, this helps with preventing autoimmune conditions, including:
• Inflammatory bowel disease
• Type-1 diabetes
• Asthma
• MS
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Cytokine Storm

There are several nutrients that can affect T regulatory cell function. These include:
1. Vitamin A
2. Vitamin D
3. Zinc
4. DHA
5. Probiotics
6. Gluten (avoid this!)

Any nutrient deficiencies that suppress or atrophy the thymus gland will reduce T regulatory cell function. Keep in mind that the “T” in T regulatory cell stands for thymus. That’s because it’s produced in the thymus gland. Also, keep in mind that as you age, your thymus shrinks, causing more inflammation and poor immune function.

Children who have taken antibiotics early on tend to have problems with T regulatory cells, asthma, and certain other autoimmune diseases.

Again, Thank You,
Studying Health promotion at the university right now, about cortisol in relation to chronic stress in the body.
So far everything I have learned from You in the Healthy Ketosis and Intermittent Fasting course has been ever so helpful. You are truly a great teacher.

Hearing you explain the specifics of the 'high fat' diet and how it was actually a simultaneous high carb diet in the rat study further confirms my suspicions of so many studies. Unless a person really goes into the details of the study they could be totally mislead so it was a relief to hear you elaborate on the type of food used in that study

May God Bless You in all aspects of your life.Thank you!

If your child has been on antibiotics under 6 months old, Garden of life has probiotic infant drops 1 to 6 month old. (And so on with appropriate age groups up until adult probiotics.)
Whilst visiting a doctor or paternal health nurse, it's a good idea to discuss replacing healthy yeast and bacterias.

So much to learn about vitamin D and appreciate learning something new every time. Thank you

DR Berg Please tell us what to do when the WBC is low.... please

[elielben-dan]

Donated blood two days ago so this video is dear to my heart (no pun intended). With the next donation I’ll be at the two gallon marker.

[adantaeduaneche]

Dr Berg you are a gift to all of us, at a time when clearly there appears to be such vague information in form of so called education. May your offspring grow up to be just like you and may your days prove to be long here on earth. Blessing to you and your family thank you so much.

[mardrettekemp]

My WBC was low this time, but I am fighting sleeping cancer and had radiation two years ago.
