My right ankle and foot swells up most days, so wearing a right shoe is painful. I hadn’t been told about potassium, or about eating more greens. I was told to keep my foot raised above my heart as often as possible which often made no difference. I do eat salads using a variety of greens including pea shoots, raw broccoli etc. My ankle and foot slimmed down every few days, now I know why! Thank you so much Doctor Berg. 😍

Every day I juice one avocado with 2-3 celery stalks with xylitol & unsweetened almond milk. I noticed positive changes in a matter of days and now several months on I have greatly reduced the swelling and the discomfort in my feet/ankles. Im not fully healed yet but I'm improving every day.

I first used L glutamine and vit D3 to fix the leaky gut issue. Then IF and Keto brought me from 210 lbs to 185 lbs in about 3 months. I feel 20 to 30 years younger. I also started using boron to stop arthritis inflammation from a hip fracture repair 24 years ago. Blood pressure is returning to normal. All this from watching your videos.

I already started to reduce rice, pasta, potatoes etc, now eat salads and add olive oil and some chicken breast, beets help reduce BP, I eat liver friendly foods like broccoli, beet, dandelion, artichoke on the salads, but I dont have enough oil to get into ketosis, I do drink coffee and tea, apparently coffee can make this problem worse

Well I actually just stumbled on your blog, video, not sure what you call it. EXTRMELY important information for me concerning left ankle swelling. I have been trying to find out the cause of my ankle swelling for months. I have a vascular doctor who's only advise is to wear compression stockings. I keep saying to anyone who will listen that I am not looking for a band aid. I want to find out what is causing the swelling instead of having my concerns be put off and told just wear compression stockings. I even have a best friend, an RN, who is at this point frustrated with me because I keep saying I want to find out WHY I have the swelling; even she just tells me to wear compression stockings. Like you said, treating the symptom and not the CAUSE of the actual problem. Finally a doctor with eyes wide open as I would think all doctors would be but I can tell you this is NOT THE CASE! I want to thank you for talking about this issue.

I decided after halfway through the first Covid year, I was at 208 lbs! and had some elevated blood pressure, to go on intermittent fasting (well started with a water fast, 5 days) and low carb, it worked, actuallly the first time, I have tried excersise, all kinds of diets, etc. been over 150 since my 2nd and last child, had really difficult fibroids, was anemic, had to have hysterectomy, which helped that...but had not been able to lose for years, now I have lost 29 lbs! and still working on it, just not as extreme on the low carb as I was, but still at least staying at 177-180 and trying to get down more, need to go more on the veg and low carb. but still, it has really helped a lot...I feel much better most of the time, still have some edema in ankles though, which I have had a long time, have had sprained ankles, and was told I have anterior tibial tendonitis from having a very high arch...so there is that.

I had bad swelling in both my feet and ankles when I had my daughter 19 years ago. Now my left foot swells, my right does too but not like my left. My liver and heart is fine but I have been told I was pre diabetic and I'm overweight so what you're saying makes a lot of sense

You may need to take Furosemide which is a water pill that helps eliminate fluids; you need a prescription from your doctor. It's taken in the morning and is active for 8 hours. I I go shopping, etc. I take it after I'm back home as you make several trips to the loo per hour!

I have this on both feet and ankles. It goes away in about 3 days, also my feet would turn red on the sides. I showed this to my PCP and he said nothing. It comes and goes and that my heart doctor mentioned for me to wear tights or compression socks to try and keep the swelling down. Thank you for the causes and ways to prevent flair ups.

I’ve been out of my Potassium. Wake up call! I was researching for more information just in case and thank you for the confirmation in this video Dr. Berg. I will check recent blood work referencing my liver. 🙏🏾❤️

I have tried to find videos that might help me eliminate the redness and the pain. They have recently become very painful as well and I would like some help. Do you have a video that could help me with this? Thanks for all your videos, I love them!

Dr. Berg, please, please provide a video on Lupus. My mother passed away from this illness and now my oldest sister has been having flare ups. She was diagnosed in 2005, I believe. Blood pressure is high & she has lost so much weight. She goes to work faithfully. She’s on so much medication and it’s making her ill, just like my mother experienced. We are desperate for answers with this horrific illness. Your help is sincerely appreciated. Thank you.)

My Dr actually sent me for ultra sound of my arteries for blood clots and I was consistently told that my potassium was fine and that I'd likely have edema for life. The ketogenic lifestyle has given me back my life. A high quality life. But listening to your videos, Dr. Berg and learning about all the macros or bodies need daily have been even more life changing. It's so hard when ppl remark on my amazing transformation and want to know what I've done. Because it's a multi step process to reverse all the damage that we've caused ourselves, mostly inadvertently due to our traditional Dr's not teaching us. It honestly should be a crime at this point in history.

Unfortunately Angela, most doctors are not aware how big a role nutrition plays in our bodies because they do not receive much if any classes in nutrition. Doctors are pretty much clue less in this area. The "modern medicine" pretty much abandoned anything holistic with the advent of the development of the pharmaceutical industry. Instead, they focus on drugs and development. I am not saying that we have not benefited from the advent of drugs, but not all of us need drugs as the primary solution to what ails our bodies. Sometimes it's just getting real about what we are eating.

I started keto about three years ago, sometimes strict sometimes not so much but always living with the knowledge that carbs kill, thanks to information like this. I see family and friends slowly killing themselves with food. Some I have seen die when they shouldn't have. It's hard to watch, especially when they refuse to entertain the possibility that what they eat every day is making them sick. Thanks to Dr. Berg I live a healthier more active life than many folks my age. Keep up the good work.

The symptom is not the problem! Thanks Dr Berg. This is a common mistake "western" doctors often make.
