Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

Let's talk about the seven warning signs that your kidneys are toxic.

Now I want to do a comprehensive video on the kidney, but in a very, very simple way without

teaching you all the fluff and the extra things that you don't need to know.

So we're just going to focus on the most important things you need to know to prevent a toxic

kidney, as well as what to do if you have toxic kidneys.

Now what is the purpose of the kidneys?

Well, it mainly filters the blood, but not like an oil filter in your car.

It's much more complex.

It gets rid of the toxic things and it will help to reabsorb all the good things.

So the more you lose this complex filtering function, you start getting rid of nutrients

that you need and you hold waste products.

They start backing up into the system.

And so all of the symptoms, both in the early stage kidney problems, as well as the late

stage kidney problems, are directly related to this filtering system becoming damaged.

Now some of the top early symptoms would be a metallic taste in your mouth.

That means your toxins are backing up into the system.

You have itchiness in your body and you can also have ammonia breath.

Now some of the later signs that your kidneys are toxic would be a dimo, okay, swelling,

where you put your finger into your lower leg and it leaves a dent.

And so you're going to notice swelling in the lower ankles and feet.
