Dr Berg is what every doctor should be. One who heals, one who actually goes down to the root cause, one who uses critical thinking. Bringing light to the dark ages of medicine. Dr Berg, you are a diamond.

I love Dr Berg you explain disease processes so plainly. I constantly refer patients to your videos. I personally have helped myself and many family members from learning at your feet. Keep going you bless so many! I’m so grateful!!

[bobbyg]

The reason I don't often comment is because I LIKE ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS and after awhile, my comments would get boring. GREAT JOB, AGAIN, (& again & again & again etc.)

[Bankai]

Please do more minerals! Even the more forgotten ones like Silica and Boron or Cobalt etc. Some of these are crucial but totally overlooked and low in our diets.

Dr Berg. I have been following you since forever. Your videos are my go-to everytime I am deciding to get something related to health. You helped me with managing my ill child’s post chemo therapy organ and system damages. Although he has passed away, I know that his last few months (after I put him off western medicine) was less painful for him because of the change in diet and supplement I provided him thanks to you. i had major fibroid, cysts and endometriosis issues shortly after, and I returned to your videos to help me cope with my issues then. I thank God for you and may He bless you with everything good. I am sure my son will tell God about how you have helped him and us get healthy. I can’t thank you enough.
