How to Fix Your Gut:

L. Reuteri strain
**I am finding that using only ONE TBS of prebiotic fiber in the recipe makes a better-quality product.

How to Make It:

Today, I’m going to tell you how to stop overthinking! Overthinking can trigger cortisol, which equals more stress. Stress hormones will continue to stress you out, leaving you trapped in a vicious cycle of anxious thoughts that can be very difficult to break out of.

Most of the time, anxiety and overthinking can be fixed by addressing nutritional imbalances, but people are often prescribed SSRIs. These drugs block the reabsorption of serotonin and come with several side effects. They can downgrade the receptor for serotonin, which can cause a major deficiency in serotonin.

Drugs, chronic stress, junk food, lack of sun, and vitamin D can deplete your serotonin and dopamine. Many people get the blues during the winter months because of a lack of vitamin D from the sun.

Vitamin D deficiency can lead to anxiety and depression. Research has shown that vitamin D may produce the same results as a medication for depression without the side effects!

The health of your microbiome directly affects your mental health. The microbes that help increase serotonin are very sensitive to broad-spectrum antibiotics.

To stop overthinking and improve your mental health, you’ll want to take at least 10,000 IU of vitamin D each day. You also need the microbes that make serotonin!

L. reuteri affects serotonin more than any other microbe, yet over 96% of the population is deficient! The best way to fix this problem is to make your own probiotic yogurt using L. reuteri. This microbe can help decrease anxiety, increase oxytocin, and significantly reduce cortisol.

Overthinking used to rob me of sleep every night, leaving me exhausted the next day. It wasn’t until I started addressing my mental health from the inside out that things got better. Adding magnesium and probiotics to my routine, which I discovered in Secret Supplements that turn you into a Superhuman, has made a massive difference. Magnesium helps me relax before bed, and probiotics have noticeably improved my mood during the day.

I was having the high cortisol and was taking all the ashwagandha products. I was not sleeping, weight gain and other symptoms. I did research on it all and discovered that it is mostly copper deficiency. I added magnesium, copper, selenium and zinc supplements and FINALLY I am sleeping the whole night instead of waking up at midnight every night. So glad I got it figured out.

The main source of over thinking are adverse childhoods. We've been trying to solve our poor early environments. But yes, eat well and treat your body well. Thank you Dr Berg.

Dr.berg you got me feeling good, lots of people saying that I am looking good.
I love you keto fasting ❤ was 400 lbs and I am down to 151 ❤

Overthinking is horrible. Thank you for your help.

I never realized how crucial vitamin D and gut health are for mental well-being! This connection between serotonin, microbiome, and anxiety is mind-blowing. The natural approach with L. reuteri yogurt sounds promising—definitely worth exploring. Thanks for sharing such valuable insights!

I once experienced prediabetic symptoms, along with anxiety and vertigo attacks. Then, I discovered one of Dr. Berg's videos and made sure to take enough Vitamin D3 and K2. I couldn't be more grateful. Sending love from Jordan!

I live in Finland and during winter we have the Polar night, so there's very little to no sun during winter and many people definitely are more grumpy, some even get seasonal depression.
The effects of Vitamin D are truly incredible.

This would explain why people who live in tropical climates tend to be happier

The very first time I took a decent amount of vit D, I remember thinking "wow, if an antidepressant had this effect this fast I'd say it was working". But none of them ever did. Vit D is a far better antidepressant than anything else I've ever tried, and I've tried at least 6 different antidepressants. Kudos to Dr. Berg for helping me to understand that 600 I.U.'s a day isn't gonna do diddly squat for any of my health problems. 🎉

Medication keeps you there. I stopped mine...increased D3!!
Much better now

[beasport]

It's not just worry. I have a very creative mind and also ideas pop in my head and then I'm constantly thinking (and excited) about things I can do.

[CynLeeAm]

Overthinking is the root of my anxiety lol it always triggers it.

[CookChef-ozbc]

I remember that first time seeing one of Dr Berg videos on how to stopped eating bread in August of 2022
I was overweight and lots of health problems with different types of pain from TMJ, Spine and back pain, Ankle and flat feet, pinched nerve in the shoulders as of now I am down 139 lbs... my prediabetes took off, my blood work results are the best I ever had..I thank God for finding out about Dr Berg after 26 years of health problems Thank you God for everything 🙏

The moment i went carnivore with grass fed/finished beef only, pasture raised eggs and fermented foods like raw milk kefir, sauerkraut and yogurt, everything got so much better. No more overthinking.

[kaleemsattar]

Doc, you really hit the nail on the head!

For the past few months, I've been drowning in anxiety and depression. I couldn't focus on work, lost my confidence, dealt with constant brain fog, and had random thoughts running in circles.

What made me realize it could be a vitamin D deficiency is my lifestyle as a software engineer. For months, I’ve been stuck in my room, going straight from bed to my desk, eating meals at my desk, and barely interacting with anyone.

I'll start taking vitamin D right away to see if it makes a difference!

[wendilayne]

Writing this down! Thank you! You've solved almost all my medical problems, one by one you picked them off with your videos. I told a girl with medical issues at work to look you up and she said "that's what my doctor told me!" ❤

[budmokie]

My doctor had put me on seratonin uptake inhibitors, a.k.a. antidepressants, years ago which I kept having to increase when they stopped working. She told me think of it as a maintenance drug like diabetes medication that you can take forever. There were many unpleasant side effects so one day I told myself I’m going to wean myself from these drugs. It was a very gradual, slow process with unpleasant withdrawal symptoms but I got through it and feel so much better. I increased my vitamin d, k, zinc and magnesium and started making fermented foods. What a game changer!

[ddunning]

This is exactly how I've been the last 20 years! I bought a yogurt maker and the probiotics. Have 1/2 cup every day with my last meal. I'm really hoping this is an answer of help. So far all Dr Bergs advice has helped me! 😊
