4:35 Vitamin D benefits
In this video, we’re going to talk about dermatitis. Dermatitis means inflammation of the skin, and there are many different types.
At their core, skin problems are either related to an allergy or an immune reaction. You can consider many cases of dermatitis as an over-reactive immune system.
Topical and oral steroids are the most common treatments of dermatitis. They work by suppressing the immune system. Antibiotics are also commonly used to treat cases of dermatitis but often lead to a secondary infection.
The superficial layer of your skin contains a multitude of microbes and acts as a barrier for your lymphatic tissue and blood vessels. These tissues are full of immune cells ready to protect you against foreign invaders.
Dermatitis seems to respond positively to vitamin D. For example, vitamin D works to mitigate symptoms of contact dermatitis by lowering the histamine response. Vitamin D is the main regulator of the immune system.
Skin conditions are typically worse in the winter when we get less vitamin D. They are also worse when a person is under stress. When you raise cortisol levels from stress, you deplete vitamin D.
Vitamin D can decrease acne by shrinking and normalizing the sebaceous glands. This can help regulate the overproduction of oil, decreasing acne breakouts. Seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp is also known as dandruff. Vitamin D cream can help reduce dandruff.
Eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo, and alopecia are all related to vitamin D deficiency. Microbes involved in certain skin issues can reduce the vitamin D receptors in your skin, allowing them to survive.

Hands down one of the best health channels. Concise and to the point.
He’s been a blessing to me..
Yes, to the point. No 45 minutes of boring chatter. Love Dr. B!
@@leah__gail yeah none of that 20 minutes of saying absolutely nothing.
Yes hence the popularity of course also 11 million subscribers is crazy good for health advice channels
The first way I learned to cure my eczema, was nude sunbathing. They went away for two days after that. Now, if the sun is out, you’d be hard-pressed to find me with clothes on. I don’t recommend this if you have close neighbors, but otherwise, the sun seems to heal just about everything, including insanity.
And giving cancer 😅 be careful not to overdo it
@@xristinarose2409 I’ve heard this a lot. What if someone sunbathes in early hours? 7 to 9am.
Maybe not insanity😬
@zasta7 after 2pm, the sun is too strong..sun bathe in the hours b4 2pm, or after 5pm
I saw this with my daughters. When we increased their Vit. D3 their dermatitis would decrease within a week.
How many D3 tablets did they use each day?
@@jedimindtricks7589 usually around 1500 i.u. a day. Kids absorb it better than adults so adults would need more but that amount usually is ok.
10000 IU WITH K2 per day
Make sure it is a natural form of D3.
@@dilletanteproprietor Thanks!
In the UK, the doctors never bothered too much to investigate my daughter’s skin condition deeply. We always heard that it was an allergy, which, according to them, is quite simple and normal for her age. She has always suffered, and after an exhaustive pursuit of any doctor who could give her a proper diagnosis, we now understand the whole picture much better. However, in order to help her live a normal life, as parents, we have to continue researching on our own. This kind of in-depth video by Dr. Berg is essential for educating ourselves and applying a different approach not only to my daughter’s issue but for everyone else out there. Thank you, Doctor.
Same here in Italy. We increased our daughter’s VitD3 and her dermatitis cleared up
Thank you for taking an active approach to fixing your kids problems. My parents never did that. I love them and they were decent enough, but it’s quite daunting having to deal with these “weird” problems on your own.
Dr Anthony Chaffee and Dr ken berry on youtube
@@BeforeThisNovemberhaha, same here.
My mum took the that’s-good-food-and-its-crazy-to not-wanna-eat-it approach to my intolerances. So, I was also on my own.
Oddly enough, later in live she apologized her own way, by baking for me sometimes specially without my trigger ingredients.
@@advex4428 sounds like she was remorseful indeed, that’s nice of her.
One thing about getting older, is we realise that our parents are just people, just like us. With their own insecurities, problems and that they’re not know-it-all superheroes we perceived them to be as children.
We can’t resent them for their shortcomings in our development, we can only learn from them and improve for he next generation 🙏
Dr.Berg notified many of times that Vit.D in addition Zinc deficiencies are crucial… 👍
Thanks Doctor.👏
I have Seborrheic Dermatitis. And I agree with dr. Berg about the winter and stress aspect. It definitely grows when I experience both of these.
Same here, for me it is mainly stress that cause flare ups
After a emotional distress situation (loss of a family member) I got this. Never even had dandruff before in my life. It took two bouts with a topical steroid and t-gel shampoo for 6 months. Finally kicked it and it’s never returned. It’s been 6 years. It absolutely is from stress on the body.
Thank you thank you!! I’ve been trying to get my husband to take extra vit D. He has fungal pneumonia. I had him listen to the video and he promised me he would take more. What a blessing ❤
A “therapeutic dose” of vitamin D is 50,000 IU. This is the dose prescribed when you’re diagnosed as Vitamin D deficient. A single pill. Your body uses it in so many places it’ll be soaked right up.
The average Vitamin D supplement contains 1,000-2,000 IU per pill. A good maintenance dose is 8,000-10,000 IU per day. Take that for six weeks and get ready to feel amazing!
@@punchkitten874 thank you 💕
Make sure to add K2 with the d3
@@nathanklein4538 thank you
Cheryl. Please see the work of Dr Linus Pauling. Double Noble Prize winner, for his personal work on Vitamin C. I use it on people to eradicate pneumonia along with vit D. Big doses please.
Sugar, causes my husband’s dermatitis to pop up. This is a good video
Bacteria and other microbes love sugar
I have found this to be true.
If my VitD levels are too low even a little bit of sugar flares it right up!
& wheat carbs are also a big one.
@@ghog15 everything thats not good for you loves it!
Same with mine. It was gone the first month of being off sugar.
what i have found out is , it is not the sugar it self but the sugar and carbs mixed with proteins and fats.. i had same issue years back and i went all fruit and carbs and i cut out the fats and proteins . great results . a few years later i was eating normal again and flare ups returned so it was winter time and i didn’t have access to good fruits so i went carnivore. or keto. low carb veggies like broccoli and others all the fat and butter i wanted but didn’t eat breads pasta potatoes . or carbs or sugar. gone , even in coffee i used stevia. i later found out that my body couldnt handle all the fats and sugar in the blood stream. this is also why diabetics can go off meds when eating a stricked fruit and carb lifestyle. they also can do the same if they give up carbs and fruits and go all fats and proteins. like steak seafood all the fat that comes on the steak . eat it too. ,, if you ever wanna try either diets out just try it. i do both. summer time when fruit is good i go high carb vegan. winter i go carnivore .. cheers! ps when switching over you have to give it time to work. let me know how it goes for you. oh and yes if i get in the sun that works also. cheers again 😀
I had psoriasis for over 10 years, only on the palm of my hands. KETO helped a lot. I decided to stop taking my medication temporarily, cycosporine. I’ve been medication free, with no signs of it for over three years now. My dermatologist was amazed. You don’t know how many times I’ve sent you blessings, Dr. Berg. I used many different holistic approaches, which have totally changed my life..😊❤❤❤❤
Use sauerkraut. My 25 years of psoriasis is gone after started using sauerkraut.
Thanks for sharing your testimony! Keto re-establishes good microflora, while starving out pathogens like parasites. Dr Hulda Clark taught a protocol emphasizing a low sugar, anti-parasite diet.
@@malleshiitmHow are you using it? Thanks
Surprised. They probably acted that way, but they’re pissed they lost a customer inside for finding the cure instead of being stuck on their meds.
A friend was developing a ferocious, spreading dermatitis. A doctor thought perhaps yeast and a drug reaction but it was accelerating. Talking to someone else, they suggested parasites and the toxins from parasites. Within three days of starting to address that, the pattern reversed. She now has physical scars but it was a correct answer, the doctor said she never thought of, or knew of.
How did they address the parasites?
So it was parasites? What kind? And how did they treat it?
What parasite..?
Not getting enough saturated fat in the diet is also a contributing factor to dry skin and many skin conditions.
I think it is. That is why I try to consume coconut oil. It is easy to get in my country. But still expensive than palm oil. Olive oil is just taste different and quite expensive (in my country). It helps me with keto diet. So I am not carving sugar all the time.
When I was consuming seed oils (and olive oil) my skin was always greasy. Now I stick with animal fat my skin feels more ‘waxy’ (for want of a better word). This is a positive development, IMO.
Not enough fat messed up my digestive system taking months to recover.
100% grassfed ruminants are my favorite. I used to do wild caught salmon and mackerel too but now I don’t feel well after eating seafood for some reason. Wearing plastic clothing doesn’t help either so prefer Natural non toxic fibers that breathe ie silk, merino, organic cotton. No fragrance or dyes in personal care, soap, laundry detergent either. Oh I floss with natural silk…did you know there are plastics and forever chemicals in many dental flosses. It’s seems so much harder to stay healthy nowadays.
Answer: Vitamin D
I think we are interested in the explanation
On point, i was suffering from lot of skin problems and sereral health issues. I tested myself and found out that i have vit d deficiency, started taking vit. D3 after that all those back pain, bursaities and skin problems are going away. I usually don’t comment on social media but Couldn’t hold back to thank you for putting this kind of valuable information. Thank you Dr. Berg. 🙏🏼
Wonderful! I’m so glad it helps!
Winter time also coincides with being indoors, dry heat
Light bulb moment when talking about winter. I used to think that it was the cold and dry winds causing skin problems but I never knew why it didn’t happen in summer with the hot and dry winds. I started taking Vitamin D just before winter last year and I never had any itching and never got sick either, even though people all around me were sick (some more than once) with bad coughs and colds. My Vitamin D level went from 40 before taking Vitamin D to 244 when I tested in March. I take 10,000iu daily with about 150mcg of K2, unless I get a nice sunny day in April to September where I can get over an hour of good exposure, then I don’t take any for that day.
I’m on disability. My dermatologist never did any tests to see if psoriasis is really psoriasis!
I had scabies for over a year because the doctors were not listening and mine showed up in non-traditional places on my skin. Very cruel.
Doctors are only human, I’m afraid. They don’t have every single answer. Hell, sometimes they don’t even have the right answer.
But we are blessed to have the internet and, if we care enough, can find the answer to almost anything.
Add probiotics, NAC add Omega-3, and that is a total winning combination. Worked for me.
What sort of probiotics you used?
What’s NAC?
@@CrixusHeartn-acetyl cysteine NAC for short.
@@kaygibson8942 thank you
N-Acetyl Cysteine
D3 seems to be the most important vitamin people should be taking. It provides soooo many benefits
You’ve done many videos on this already but a pre requisite to recommending vitamin D is ensuring the user also has enough magnesium, zinc, k2, and other nutrients that work together for certain functions in the body
Thank you…. What helped me most is giving up all commercial shampoo and conditioner. Not only was it causing itchy scalp hair loss, but many lawsuits have been started because they have carcinogens and cause cancer.
