In this podcast, Dr. Berg talks about common healthcare problems. 


Heart Disease 

• The blood vessel starts developing plaque that builds up with cholesterol, LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein), calcium. There’s a huge focus on cholesterol but doesn’t have any problem with protein or calcium even though calcium makes up this plaque. Before the plaque develops, there’s always something that causes it and that is usually inflammation and damage in the artery wall of the heart from infection, free iron, oxidant, high sugar, etc. 

• Coronary Artery Calcium Test – The best test for heart health and is way more accurate in detecting heart disease by testing the calcification. 


Certain Type of Chronic Disease 


1. Damage to Mitochondria from free radical or oxidants and all things called carcinogens 

2. Shift to different metabolism – sugar, glutamine 


Alzheimer’s 


• Amyloid Plaquing – It is a type of protein that comes from damage to the brain, infection, inflammation, chemicals, and oxidation. The body is trying to heal, protect or patch something up. 


Autoimmune Disease 

• The body is developing antibodies. The body’s own immune system is attacking its own organs and glands and there’s inflammation as a result of the immune war that creates collateral damage. 

• There’s always a stressful event that occurs right before a person develops autoimmune disease.
