Recent Success Story!
“The patient is markedly improved despite stopping Humira. She has no joint swelling or synovitis since starting a strict dietary protocol at The Goldberg Clinic. Her metabolic syndrome is also greatly improved--she has been able to stop the insulin pump and has more normal body habitus.”

Dr. Goldberg,
I started my journey with you on October 8, 2011 with the goal to restore my health. In March, I spent an entire month in the hospital with pancreatitis and eventually having my gall bladder taken out. While I have had metabolic problems my entire life, when I left the hospital I was off of all of my medications for diabetes, blood pressure and cholesterol/triglycerides. By August my entire metabolic panel was OFF THE CHARTS.
I have battled with hyperlipidemia since I was a child, remembering being put on a “fat reducing diet” for “too much fat in my blood” when I was 13 years old. When I was 18, I had a cholesterol level of 440 and triglyceride level of 6 000. That started my battle with statin and fibrate medications for the next 20 years, none of which helped at all. I had never had a cholesterol level below 250 or triglyceride level lower than 300 no matter what medication or dietary supplement I was given.
I started your program on October 25th. By November 16th I was able to come off of my blood pressure medication. I was put on an insulin pump in August and I was using over 120 units of insulin every day. My base rate of insulin delivery was 2.6 units per hour. Within the first week, I had to lower that rate two times. The rest of the journey is so incredibly remarkable, I think the numbers can speak more volumes than my story possibly can.
This was the FIRST time I have EVER been able to have a cholesterol:HDL ratio – otherwise my LDLs were always too high and my HDLs were too low to ever have a ratio calculated.
I am currently weaning myself off of my insulin pump, decreasing my basal rate every 5-7 days. Right now I am at 0.4 units/hr and I average less than 25 units per day. My pancreas is able to produce its own insulin, which should average about 30 units per day naturally (according to my Endocrinologist). While I desperately want to stop using the cholesterol and triglyceride medicines, my Endocrinologist and PCP feel that is what is keeping me from another pancreatitis attack (assuming my elevated triglycerides were the cause of my pancreatitis and repeated attacks of epigastric pain through the summer).
I feel incredible! I am receiving compliments left and right from people saying I look so healthy, the color in my face is brighter than they’ve ever seen and my eyes are sparkling. I didn’t realize just how sick I appeared until people started telling me how wonderful I look now, then they would admit to me that I really looked very sick prior to coming to you for help.
I know I have long journey ahead of me. You forewarned me that this was going to be a long process and I am astonished how incredibly fast these results have occurred, but I am fully aware that all of that was the easy part – the true challenge is to keep my lifestyle in this healthy place.
Thank you for giving me my life and my health back. Thank you, for giving me the right dosage of ‘tough love’ when I have needed it. Thank you for all the encouragement to continue reaching for more success along this journey.
With abundant health and happiness,
Cynthia Berkeley
