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.

Hey everyone, we're going to talk about the eight actual causes of a demo, okay?

Padema is swelling and the lower extremities and your ankles and your feet, and you see people

all the time with this, and I just want to kind of dig into what's behind it.

There's some things that are more common, but I want to give you all the potential causes.

One, actually, it's not as common, but if you're very low in protein, let's say for example,

you're even on keto and you don't consume enough protein, you could start to have a problem

where your ankle starts swelling up. Yeah, so low protein in the blood, and the protein in the

blood is called alpiumin. If that's low, then the water accumulates in around the cells.

So you just need to add more protein to the diet or improve the digestion by adding more

the tain height chloride or outside of vinegar to digest the protein.

All right, number two, low vitamin B1. A B1 deficiency is called berry, berry, and a lot of

people have a B1 deficiency because they're consuming too many carbs or alcohol or tea or

chocolate or various things. I did a whole video on that, but if you're low in B1, even subclinically,

and sometimes it doesn't really show up in a blood test because it's not quite a major thing,

but it's just low, then you can get swelling in the ankles in the feet. So it's real simple,

take nutritional yeast, and or B1. Boom, problem solved. All right, three, low potassium.

If you're not consuming enough greens, then where's your potassium coming from? You need 47

hundred milligrams every single day, so you have to figure out how you're going to get that.

There is some potassium in meat, like for example, a chicken breast has like 300 milligrams,

but again, you need 47 hundred, so I like to get it from vegetables, especially if you're doing
