Yay! Thankyou. I was in dire need of this!
I’ve been under chronic stress for as long as I can remember. Although I am at a good body weight,there are hollows in my cheeks and I’ve lost fat from my face.
Can you pls do a video on how to get fuller cheeks? Thanks doc!
Chew gum .
@True Patriots 😂👍
Eat saturated fats . Fatty cuts of meat, and plenty of avocado.
Cook using butter,ghee, tallow, lard, etc
@Ilham H actually,they’re right. I have read elsewhere also that chewing gum helps.
@Fancymama Q I do consume plenty of ghee and butter . Doesn’t help 🤷
The number one reason for all dark circles is insulin resistance. It took me literally 2 months for them to go away. There was no other factor which caused them. I needed to stop eating sugar and of course carbs + dairy and after 2 months not only my skin cleared, I felt much better and of course insulin resistance was gone + dark circles 🙂
Thank you for sharing, this made me really hopeful☺️
Basically everything that I am bingeing right now.
I have insulin resistance. I also have diabetes ( different animal ). I have never had dark circles under my eyes…..ever. I wonder why ?
@Carol Cole I dont know Carol. In my case this is what I was dealing with. And the reason was insulin resistance in my case.
Iron deficiency and allergies cause it too
Literally my problem right now…thanks Doc
I noticed when I cry they ( circles) get worse the next day. Thank you for your educational videos Dr Berg ❤
Me too my eyes a mess after crying takes days to calm down
@leesa Murphy aleo vera is good like Dr Berg’s mentioned, another facial mask I’ve been using since my teendays is yogurt & minced cucumber, it really calms under eyes & nourishes the face.
@Hala Havez thank you 😊 🤗
@leesa Murphy no prob 😊
This video is extremely helpful and much needed.Thanks so much Doctor.
Yeah
Right on! Glad you found it so informative.

Excellent information.
Infinite respect and gratitude to you and your health family.
Peace love and blessings!
Thank you for this I’ve been struggling with dark circles since starting hybrid working – I’d imagine the combination of less aerobic exercise and more stress is the reason behind my dark circles. I’ll give this a try 🙂
definitely this will work if done regularly.
Thanks for the information, but what about dark circles caused by the THINNING OF THE SKIN due to AGING ?
Yes! I would love to know, too!
Wow, this makes so much sense. I have been trying everything, with little results. I went thru a severe stress situation for almost 2 years, and altho gone ,never recovered physically except weight loss. I can’t wait to find out more. Thank you so much.
Do we have a nobel prize for promoting health tips on YouTube? If not we should make one for Dr. Berg 😊

Thank you Dr Berg! 🐱👍🏿
Thanks, thanks, thanks a lot🙏💐💖
thank you fidel
Thank you Fidel ❤😊
Thank you!
Thanks again and I hope all goes
I don’t have dark skin under my eyes. I have dark shadows. It’s a family trait. I and most members of my family have had them since birth. Not much I can do to lessen them.
I’ve also had dark circles under my eyes since childhood. I am a type 2 diabetic however my A1C is now 5.6 (normal) as of 2 or 3 months ago and due to low carb… insulin resistance can’t be my issue. I wasn’t diagnosed type 2 til 2016. So…… 🤷♀️
Me too
Yes, one of the most important causes of Peri-orbital darkness is due to insulin resistance and stress.
Nicely explained by DR ERIC. good work✌
Thanks for watching the video. Appreciate your comment.
@Dr. Eric Berg DC can you look into trichobacteriosis axillaris please
Excellent video, very good deep dive on this subject. Becoming aware of unresolved chronic stress is the first step to understanding the importance of these recommendations.
Thank you. Glad you like the information shared here. Have a nice day!
I’m glad to hear the stress explanation — years ago, I had those dark circles under my eyes. I was under a lot of stress (it was the last few years before my marriage of 28 years ended). After I got out of that situation, within a year or so, I realized the dark circles were gone. I never made the connection to stress until watching this video.
Sure mine are stress of 40 years & probably insulin resistance too
This is super helpful and relevant to my situation. The good thing is that I feel like I know exactly what it is in my life I need to change and what is most likely causing all this. There are definitely some things I need to do to improve this. I’ve had dark circles for years. And I’ve recently been getting sick and taken some time off work. But now I want to get back to it because I do feel better when I’m just moving my body a good amount throughout the day.
Dr Berg is the best. I don’t have many of the issues he talks about but he is a free education. I’ve passed on to people his information and it’s helped many. Thanks Dr Berg…
Every video contains lots of awareness and understandable information to improve my health. Thank you.
I had dark circles for years when I was young. Two elements have helped enormously.
Eyelid correction and 9 hours of sleep EVERY DAY.
Your ability to put out videos EXACTLY when I need them is truly uncanny!
