This guy is on YouTube and discusses Keto foods and low carb. He also does live feeds. Some of the things that he was saying kind of got me thinking. People were phoning in with health probs etc and some of the advice he was giving seemed a little off so I looked him up. Has anybody else followed this guy? https://www.casewatch.org/board/chiro/berg.shtml

Poor grammar, bullying and drunks.
I follow people such as Noakes, Malhotra, Fung, Felway, Cummins, Lustig, Taubs and Phinney. Some of the Keto promoting folks (with regards to keto foods or supplements etc) are questionable at best. It is hard at times to sort the wheat from the chaff but I found that the more I understand the mechanics of metabolic disease then the the better able I am to make wiser choices in my diet. I do not really need someone to tell me that a potato is not a wise choice but I do (or did) need to know exactly why it is a poor choice for me as a T2.

Hi Derry60.
I follow Dr Berg 700k+ subscribers he is brilliant in my opinion. With any of these you tube practitioners you take any relevant information and further research, the comments are worth reading also.
I also follow motivationaldoc who is great especially for any muscular ailments. 300k+ subscribers.

I have to totally agree with you. He seem's to be promoting lots of vitamins for this and vitamins for that. Also every time he is on air he has a book in front of him lol. People are phoning in with heart probs,all sorts of medical issued and I am thinking "Hang on what you are saying Berg does not make sense" Quite a lot of things that he promotes is in pill form. Found out that he has his own shop online lol. Thank you for the names in in your message will look them up. Love Dr Fung

I don't think that he is qualified for every medical condition people phone in for though.
