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 earwax and the best way to unclog your ears.

Of course, you want to use common sense when you're cleaning your ears.

If you look on the back of the label of a Q-tip, it says, warning, do not insert this in

your ear.

Of course, they have to tell people that because sometimes people will take a Q-tip and

just jam it into the ear and push all the wax so it clogs the inner ear and potentially

punctures the ear drum.

Of course, they have to put a warning on that.

That little hole inside your ear is only about one inch in width.

It's probably about that much, so you can imagine if you're going to stick something

in there, you don't want to go too far.

If you're going to clean your ears, go gentle, go superficial, and use a circular motion

so you're not pushing wax internally.

There's all sorts of cleaning tools you can use.

They have ear spoons and ear scrapers, and they have even electric devices that tend

to pull things out of your ear.

That's all really great, but the most important thing you have to realize is that you never

want to overclean your ears, especially on a daily basis where you're scrubbing and

cleaning your ears.
