Is Modern Food Making Us Sicker? with Dr. Eric Berg

What if the health of your food starts long before it reaches your plate?

In this episode of the ReThink Health Podcast, Dr. Eric Berg and I explore the fascinating connection between soil health, regenerative farming, nutrient density, metabolic health, and the ketogenic diet.

Dr. Berg shares his personal journey from being a self-described "junk food junkie" struggling with severe health issues… to discovering low-carb nutrition, healthy keto, and the powerful role food quality plays in long-term wellness. 

But this conversation goes far beyond keto.

We dive deep into the modern food system, why regenerative farming may produce more nutrient-dense meat, how soil microbes influence plant and animal health, and why the quality of the food you eat may matter just as much as the macros.

You'll learn:

• Why Dr. Berg says going vegan was "the sickest time" of his life

• Why bioavailable nutrients like vitamin A, iron, zinc, DHA, and protein may be harder to obtain from plants alone

• The difference between "healthy keto" and simply eating low carb

• How soil health may directly influence plant, animal, and human health

• The hidden problems with conventional agriculture, glyphosate, hormones, antibiotics, and grain-fed livestock

• What Dr. Berg's regenerative beef testing revealed about omega-3s, inflammation markers, phytonutrients, and metabolic health

• How keto and intermittent fasting may support weight loss, mood, energy, blood sugar, and metabolic health

If you've ever wondered how modern food production affects human health, this episode offers a thought-provoking look at the connection between agriculture, metabolism, and wellness.
