| 0:21.6 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. Had another question related to a recovering alcoholic and what would be the |
| 0:48.2 | best foods for that individual. Well, what do you have? You have liver damage, maybe some inflammation, maybe a fatty |
| 0:56.7 | liver, maybe even cirrhosis. You definitely have nutritional efficiencies. So the best foods that I would |
| 1:04.1 | recommend, starting from the top would be cruciferous vegetables. Why? Because cruciferous vegetables have an added X factor. They have a lot more |
| 1:14.7 | phytal nutrients that other vegetables just don't have. And when we're dealing with repairing liver |
| 1:21.4 | function, we need a lot of natural antioxidants from the food because there's so much oxidation and |

| 2:04.1 | which is very, very important in liver function. And definitely, if the person has drank alcohol, |
| 2:09.7 | they're going to be deficient in vitamin B1. But of course, my favorite is nutritional yeast. |
| 2:14.9 | You're going to get all of the B vitamins and nutritional yeast, |
| 2:18.8 | and nutritional yeast provides a natural form. Of course, if you get the version that's not enriched |
| 2:23.3 | with synthetic vitamins, but if you're a recovering alcoholic, you really need to increase this one |
| 2:30.0 | right here. Okay, nutritionally, a lot of it. Okay, next is fish, and I'm talking about while |
