Is your body sending warning signals? Dr. Berg reveals 16 nutrient deficiencies.

身體在喊話?柏格醫生揭示16種營養素缺乏的警號

Have you also ignored the "little signals" from your body?
Dr. Berg points out that many symptoms of physical discomfort are not actually diseases themselves, but rather manifestations of nutrient deficiencies. Modern lifestyles, with their widespread consumption of processed foods, excessive dieting, and malabsorption due to weakened digestive systems, are leading to increasingly wider nutritional gaps. The following 16 common signs may be warning you that your body is lacking key nutrients.

1. Brittle nails: Protein deficiency
Brittle or thin nails indicate a lack of sufficient protein in the body. Dr. Berg explains that, like animals, humans will feel hungry despite constantly eating if they consume too many carbohydrates and too little protein.

2. Bluish sclera: Iron deficiency or anemia
Pale blue sclera indicates insufficient hemoglobin. This is because iron deficiency causes collagen tissue to become transparent, making blood vessels visible.

3. Right scapular pain: Insufficient bile secretion
This may be related to decreased gallbladder function. Insufficient bile production can lead to indigestion and increase the risk of gallstones.

4. Eyelid or muscle twitching: Magnesium deficiency
Magnesium helps balance calcium ions and regulates nerve conduction. Magnesium deficiency can lead to muscle tension or twitching.

5. Dry, flaky skin: Omega-3 deficiency
Rough skin or scaly peeling is often caused by consuming too much Omega-6 plant oil (such as soybean oil and corn oil) and lacking fish oil or deep-sea fish fat.

6. High blood pressure: Potassium deficiency
Potassium helps maintain blood vessel elasticity and electrolyte balance, and can regulate the sympathetic nervous system and blood pressure.

7. Excessive anxiety: Vitamin B1 deficiency
Vitamin B1 helps stabilize the nervous system. Those deficient in it often experience anxiety, insomnia, or difficulty relaxing.

8. Hyperthyroidism: Boron deficiency
Boron helps balance trace minerals, promotes bone health, and assists in magnesium absorption. Boron deficiency can lead to hyperthyroidism.

9. Hypothyroidism: Selenium deficiency
Selenium helps convert T4 into active T3 and is a key element in maintaining thyroid metabolism.

10. Abnormal joint clicking or popping: Vitamin D3 deficiency
Vitamin D3 is not only related to bones, but also participates in joint tissue repair. Adequate D3 intake is recommended to promote remodeling function.

11. Low testosterone: Zinc deficiency
Zinc can stimulate testosterone production, but excessive refined sugar or grains can inhibit its absorption. Best sources include red meat, oysters, and shellfish.

12. Slow hair growth: Manganese deficiency
Manganese is a trace mineral that is involved in hair and bone development.

13. Premature graying of hair: Vitamin B5 deficiency
Vitamin B5
can promote the production of catalase, reduce the accumulation of peroxides in hair, and also support the adrenal glands in combating stress.

14. Red and swollen gums: Vitamin C deficiency
Vitamin C deficiency or excessive sugar intake can lead to fragile gums. Natural sauerkraut and dark green vegetables are good sources.

15. Easily fatigued and weak: Sodium deficiency
An excessively bland diet or prolonged fasting can lead to insufficient sodium intake, causing low blood pressure and fatigue. Supplementing with natural sea salt is recommended.

16. Prone to bruising: Vitamin K1 deficiency
K1 can strengthen blood vessels and blood clotting function, preventing subcutaneous bleeding.

Start with your diet and let nutrients return to your body.
Dr. Berg warns that these symptoms, though seemingly minor, are the body's most honest warnings. Adjusting your diet and supplementing with protein and minerals is far more effective in fundamentally restoring health than relying on medication. He recommends focusing on natural foods such as liver, dark green vegetables, fish oil, and sea salt to truly repair nutritional deficiencies.
