Speaker 2 (00:24):
The information presented on this show is educational in nature.

(00:45):
question or to make a health related comment is eight
hundred six oh six eighty eight twenty two. Eight hundred
six oh six eighty eight twenty two. That's eight hundred
six zero six eighty eight twenty two. It's the Doctor
Bob Martin himself.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Well, this happens to be a place where special like
minded people gather each and every week to discuss issues
and ask important questions related to our most precious possession.
That's good health. I hope that is in your mind,
your most precious possession, your health. Because With it, you
have well, you have everything, and without it you have nothing.
(01:24):
I am glad you decided to join us today. Welcome,
Welcome everyone to the Doctor Bob Martin Show. I'm Doctor
Bob and I'm here to encourage you to become your
own best doctor most of the time. Coming up this hour,
we have this week's installments of the Health Alternative of
the Week. We've got a health Outrage of the week
(01:45):
to tell you about anti product recall, and then the
health mystery will wrap the hour. I want to thank
doctor Fadua Gillanders, a doctor of pharmacology, who joined us
last hour in a discussion of weight and the fact
that America today we are mostly overweight or obese and
(02:08):
getting worse all the time. You cannot rely on the
sick care system to solve this problem. It's been getting
worse under their tutelage the whole way through for oh geez,
decades now, and it's getting worse all the time. Now,
we roll out drugs, these GLP one drugs like ozembic
and Wagavey and Munjura on all these other ones a
(02:32):
quick fix. They make a lot of money. The pharmaceutical
companies and people are having horrendous adverse side effect. Yes,
they're losing weight, but at what cost because as soon
as they stop the drug, the weight comes back, and
it comes on worse because you haven't solved the underlying
metabolic imbalance. You haven't changed your lifestyle, you haven't modified
(02:52):
any of your behavior in terms of what you eat
and or how you exercise or not. And with doctor
Gillanders as a doctor of pharmacy, she was talking about
the usage of lifestyle changes, exercise, proper eating and taking
a proprietary breakthrough nutritional supplement to help one lose weight
(03:17):
without having to go down the pathway of getting expensive
injections and adverse side effects of the drugs that are
now being pedled out there by the pharmaceutical companies. The
supplement we discussed was a supplement called Sculpt sc Ulpt
by a company by the name of Root Wellness. It's
a company that has put this together with a lot
(03:39):
of science behind it. It is rescuing people from their
excessive body weight by supporting healthy weight loss and targeting
the reduction of excess glucose caloric absorption. And yes, it
helps with appetite suppression as well and helps to burn
fat while it's the same time not exposing you to
(04:01):
adverse side effects. It's a proprietary blend of all natural ingredients.
It's multifaceted, patented technology, and you can find it if
you're interested in losing weight and losing it safely. You
can go to their website at the Root Root Brands
Theroot Brands dot com forward slash doctor Bob. That's Dr
(04:26):
Bob for the successful weight loss and balancing of your metabolism.
And as she pointed out, we're seeing important changes in
people with blood pressure and people with blood sugar problems.
And not to mention, the weight loss is just sort
of like a side effect of getting the body rebalanced.
You can't rebalance the body with these drugs that are
(04:48):
being pedled in the marketplace that are also causing lots
of adverse side effects. Not to mention they're incredibly expensive.
You can find sculpt S c U L P T
at Theroot Brands dot com Forward slash Doctor Bob. All right, now,
(05:08):
we're going to get right after this with our phone
calls that are coming into the program by our listeners.
We're going to go to phones and if you want
to ask a question about your own health. You may
call into the Doctor Bob Martin call her hotline phone
number any time of the night or day. It's available
to you or anyone else you know that needs help.
I'm here for you, I'm here for them. That number
(05:30):
is eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two.
Eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. To
ask your question, you'll hear me answer the phone. I'll
ask you to give your first name, only the city
and state you're living in, then your health question and
or your health comment. The landing site of all all
(05:50):
things related to news posted up on my website is
doctor Bob dot com. Spelling out the word doctor there
D O C T O R Bob dot com. All right,
let's go to the phones. We're going to begin with
Alice calling in from Medford, Oregon.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Hi.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
My name is Alice. I'm in Medford, Oregon. I lost
my balance as I was getting something out of the car,
and I sustained a large bruise over my left tip.
(06:33):
I am an eloquest, so I have a very dark
and dark and bruise area over my left hip of
coming down from the hip all the way into now
(06:58):
my knee area. All on this side, and I was
wondering what some of your recommendations would be to make
the bruise go away faster, and if there were some
clown I have no pain and I did not fracture
(07:22):
my hip, so I'm very lucky there. But I was
just wondering if you had some extra suggestions to expedite
healing the.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Okay, the bruise, I take it, Okay, yes I do.
Thanks for your call, Alice. By the way, since you're
taking an anti coagulant drug called Eloquence, you might want
to speak to your prescribing doctor about how that may
be impacting negatively the healing process of that wound that
you had from the fall. Now you can and also
use a topical homeopathic cream over the bruised area. It's
(08:06):
available in health food stores. It's called Arnica Bruise Relief
Arnica Bruise Relief Gel by a company called Boron. Additionally,
you can take additional amounts of vitamin C with Quercitan
and vitamin D will help that as well. All Right,
thank you for your call again, Alice. Next up is
Victoria from Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Victoria's Hot Springs, Arkansas. I think my.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
Thyroid is a little low.
Speaker 6 (08:38):
I did the test you recommended with the thermometer under
the arms, So what product would you recommend to boost
the thyroid? Thank you so much, appreciate all the hard
work you do.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You're terrific.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Well, thank you for your calling your kind of comment there, Victoria. Yes, yes,
you got to with keeping your thyroid in, your metabolism
working prereperly. You got to keep the exercise going. I
would also if you're having thyroid issues, I'd recommend you
stay away from caffeine. Caffeine literally sabotages thyroid function because
(09:17):
it interferes with depending on how much you're taking in,
it interferes with the conversion of T four to T three,
which is critical to thyroid functions. So either cut way
back on the caffeine or eliminate it altogether. Maybe go
to an herbal coffee that's non caffeinated, like Pero or
(09:37):
Caffeix or Roma. You can get these in health food stores,
or just like coffee without all the other caffeine. Also,
you can increase levels of idine by using foods like
edible seaweed. There's also celtic salt, would be fine, prunes, eggs,
(09:59):
and we just talked about last hour with weight. If
there's if it's a weight concern that you have, we
talked about using the supplement sculpt and with most people
that have thyroid problems, that usually have heavy metals in
their thyroid gland that have gone into the receptors blocking
the thyroid from working with the hormone that you're actually making.
(10:22):
So over at theroot Brands dot Com you'll find something
called clean slate. It is a liquid supplement you put
underneath your tongue to detoxify these heavy metals and these
toxins that get into the cells and the receptor sites
of the thyroid and other glands and organs. And then
(10:43):
you also find the weight loss supplement over their sculpt Sculpt.
That site is theroot Brands dot com, theroot Brands dot com.
And again thank you for your phone call, Victoria. I'm
doctor Bob Martin.

over at doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor,
docto r bob dot com. And this this week we
have a health pole question over there we'd love to
get your opinion of. Apparently, in the state of Florida,
they have banned the sale of lab grown meats, meaning
(13:14):
that instead of getting your cow meat and pig meat,
and chicken meat and turkey meat and all the rest
of it from the farm or outside producers of live animals,
they're actually producing meat in laboratories now artificially. And so
(13:36):
the state of Florida has banned that sale in Florida.
And we're asking you the question, are you in favor
of a nationwide ban on lab grown meat? Yes?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Or no?
Speaker 3 (13:49):
You can vote on that on my website at doctor
Bob dot com docto r bob dot com. All right,
before we get back to any of your back to
your phone call, your open question, health question, phone calls,
or health comments, we have for you. This week's installment
of the Health Alternative of the Week. Well, this is
(14:22):
just in time for the what I call the yearly
another yearly sugar orgy, wherein we go to the grocery store,
or we go to Costco or Sam's Club or somewhere
we buy these jiguando bags of nothing but junk food
sugar to hand out at Halloween. Once again, I'm going
(14:46):
to help you to break that behavior because it is
not a good behavior, because not only does it give
children at the door something that they don't need, it
also causes you to eat the candy that's left over
and have an excuse to eat it, which is not
good either. And that stuff lasts for a long time.
People were eating these Halloween candies and these gigantic bags
(15:09):
for weeks and months. Don't do that. No tricks this year,
just natural treats. It's time. It's the time of the
year when we go off the rail, if you will,
on our good eating program, and we start woofing down
all these gooey, sugary, weight causing goodies that are put
(15:31):
out there, especially things like hard candy and lollypops that
dissolve slowly. Keeping your teeth coated full of sugar for
a long time. I mean, that's great for the dental industry,
but it's not good for you. You know, some of
these sour candies are even more harmful due to their
extreme acidity. Even sticky goo from these popcorn balls that
(15:56):
you see ad here to your teeth, and the popcorn
kernels can get stuck in your teeth and irritate your gums.
Don't go down that path. And by the way, and
I see these commercials now on television this time of
year where the little trigger treaters going up to the door.
The woman opens the door, and the girl, the girl
in the middle is one side, she's got a peanut
(16:17):
butter cup and the other is the Twix bar. And
the woman in the house is giving away peanut butter
cups and twigx bars, so she gets both and the
two little boys who are sitting standing next to her
get just one treat only because they're not as hooked
up with their Halloween costume. But I'm here to tell
(16:38):
you that those Twix bars are nothing but junk. Twix
bars are considered one of the worst, the very worst
Halloween or any candy that you can put in your body.
They are because they contain fourteen grams of bad fat,
twenty eight grams of refined sugar, and nearly three hundred
(17:03):
calories per twix bar. We're talking about Twix. Stay away
from those things completely and don't hand them out to
anybody else. You're not doing them any favors either. It's
time to help yourself and make halloweens safer and healthier
this year, and you've got time to get started. You
(17:24):
can go Natural at Natural Grocer's brand Style. This year's
lineup includes organic snack packs you can get a hold
of those and popular bulk trail mixes which include nuts
and seeds, fresh superfruit and loaded full of healthy fats
and protein to fuel the body and the little trigger treaters.
(17:48):
They'll absolutely love it and you won't be poisoning them
with the junk food that you typically give out. Everybody wins.
Or you have an option of doing Tony's Cocoa so
Lonely White chocolates, raspberry candy bars to suit everyone's including
from vampires to tigers to monster turtles, whatever shows up
(18:10):
at your door. You have options that are safer, that
are healthier, Or you can also opt for natural fruit
snacks and fruit leathers from real fruit without added sugar.
That's an option for you this Halloween season. You've even
got yogurt covered raisins and pretzels or fruit cups. Be creative.
(18:31):
Don't go with the same stuff, the same junk food
that's contributing to the obesity of America, not to mention
rotted teeth. It's the season to be smook spooky. I
get that, but I'm going to skip the spooky ingredients
and I hope you will too. Will you make a
sugar free Halloween difference in your neighborhood this year by
(18:53):
checking out what Natural Grossers has to offer you and
your guests this Halloween. No tricks, just natural, healthy treats.
And if you don't happen to have a natural grocery
store near you, you can go to their website and
find out more about it at naturalgrocers dot com. Naturalgrocers
dot com. This week's health alternative of the week is
(19:17):
no tricks, just natural treats for you and those little
trick or treaters are gonna show up at your door.
Be different, be better, be healthier. Naturalgrocers dot com. All right,
let's get right back to your telephone calls and open
line health related questions at eight hundred six zero six
eight eight two two. It's that simple. You just call
(19:38):
this number and ask your health question. Eight hundred six
zero six eight eight two two. Here comes Phil in
Saint George Utah.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Phil, Saint George Utah want to talk about benefits of
natural medicines that actually your common cold, such as ulsharot
and a regular oil that will help fight inspection. And
(20:12):
I want to say that mankind was not wrong for
five hundred thousand years. Modern medicine does have its place, though.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
I agree. Modern medicine does have its place, but usually
that's crisis management and management rather than fixing stuff. Yes,
the vitamins to help support the immune system include vitamin A,
vitamin C, D three, zinc. Yes, I love oregano, it's excellent.
I'm not familiar with the one you said, bouchet Rue,
whatever that may be, but I agree with you. Conventional
(20:45):
care does trauma, carrics, severe acute disease, management, emergencies, all that,
but too often utilized. Appreciate the phone call, Phil, Thank you.
Speaker 7 (21:00):
Anybody's got fay mistakes, but everybody's got a choice to make.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Everybody needs to leave the faith. When are you taking yours.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Money?
Speaker 3 (21:13):
You info? All right, doctor Bob martzing back with you.
Thank you so very much for tuning into the program
today and telling others to do the very same thing.
And if there is somebody in your life that you
believe could benefit by tuning into this radio show, the
(21:36):
way to do so, to refer them to the program
is jut down the call letters of the radio station
you're listening to right now, is it an amor FM station,
the frequency on the dial, time of the day, and
just pass that out to as many people as you
can so they too can enjoy this radio show. And
while you're at it, we would love to get your
(21:56):
opinion of this week's health phole question over on my
website at doctor Bob dot com. It goes like this,
the state of Florida has banned the sale of lab
grown meats. Whether that be beef, pork, foldry, it doesn't matter.
They banned it in the state of Florida. So we're
asking you the question on my website at doctor Bob
(22:17):
dot com, spelling out the word doctor. Are you in
favor of a nationwide ban on lab grown meat. Yes
or no. Please vote on that and we'll have the
results and tell you about it in the next show
coming up. Also shortly here will be the health outrage
of the week. Stay tuned for that. Now, this is
a perfect time to remind you that our dental health
(22:40):
is so important. This is the time of year where
I believe dental care starts to rise because people now
are going to from Halloween all the way through the
holiday at the end of the year, are going to
be exposing themselves to a lot of sweets, a lot
of desserts, a lot of candies, a lot of junk food.
Those simple carbohydrates get into the oral cavity and they
(23:02):
stay there and then they start to feed the bacteria
in the oral cavity in the mouth. The bacteria uses
those simple carbohydrates and then they excrete their toxins out,
those toxins, those acids, These Streptococcus mutans germs, they excrete
it right there in your mouth. I know it all
sounds gross, but it's true. And those excretions are the
(23:26):
things that break down the enamel of your teeth, cause
inflammation of your gums, and create all kinds of dental
problems you don't need or want. What I suggest you
do is pull back on the sugar going in and
all the other things that could damage your oral cavity,
your teeth, your mouth, and use the Spry dental defense
system like doctor Bob does and my family and my colleagues.
(23:49):
Spry is spelled spry. If you don't want to develop
tooth to care or gingivitis, periorotyl disease, or even bad breath,
the Spry toothpaste and the Spry mouth rints is the
way to go. And I personally just cannot even in
my mind think about going to the dentist because it
(24:12):
conjures up fear and anxiety and elevated blood pressure. Because
as a young boy, I got traumatized in the dental
chair because my parents didn't understand that brushing teeth helps
people avoid tooth decay and dentures. They would have told
me that had they known they were full dentured up already.
(24:33):
So don't go down that path. Do what I'm doing
to prevent dental problems and bad news. When you're in
the dental chair and they're whispering in your ear, you
have a cavity, You need a crown. You need a filling,
you need a root canal, you need something. The Spry
Dental Defense System which comes in various flavors, delicious flavors
(24:54):
of peppermint, cinnamon, and spearmint. It is really the secret sauce,
the xylottole in there that caused those germs to leave
the oral cavity tricks them and when they consume it,
they die. It's plant based, it's all natural. It works,
and it has kept my oral cavity in my family's
oral cavity healthy all these years, and it will be
for you as well. So the next time you're baby
(25:17):
in your dental practice, whether it's the hygieniester or the dentist,
they're going to be impressed with what you're doing. Just
tell them you're using the Spry s p r Y
Dental Defense System. You can find it at CVS or
write Aid Pharmacies, target vitamin shops, Sprouts and other fine
health food stores throughout the nation, or you can go
to their website to learn more at Clear x l
(25:39):
e a r dot com, Clear dot com for Spry
Dental Defense. They're the people who make the Clear nasal
sprays x L e AR Clear Nasal Sprays for Spray
Dental Defense at Clear dot com. All right time now,
ladies and gentlemen, for this week's installment of the health
(25:59):
outrun age of the week. She's I don't believe it
come on each time for the hell outbridge because it's nothing,
but it is outrageous, big time warning out. You may
have heard of this over birth control device used by
(26:22):
millions and millions of women that may risk them getting cancer.
So using this birth control device may cause cancer in
women who are not trying to get pregnant. A common
IU DA IUD inter uterine device birth control may raise
(26:42):
the risk of breast cancer. That's what the research is
now suggesting women who used hormonal IUDs, which slowly releases
a contraceptive level nor gestural we're forty percent forty percent
more likely to be die gnosed with breast cancer within
(27:03):
five years than women who were on some other form
of birth control. Now, I asked the question, which is outrageous,
how did this ever get on the market If it
increases the risk of breast cancer by a whopping forty
percent of those women who are using these IUDs that
impart a contraceptive synthetic analog hormone into their system. Among
(27:27):
the women who used them over a decade, the risk
went up to eighty percent. Oh my gosh. About one
in five sexually active women in the United States use IUDs,
which are inserted into the uterus by a doctor and
last anywhere between three to eight years. Many women opt
(27:51):
for these so they don't have to remember to take
a birth control pill every day or have to have
their their more significant other using some form of other
countries that like condoms. Experts suggest that this may be
due to the hormones like progesterone, binding to proteins in
the breasts and fueling certain forms of cancer. Levo noor
(28:14):
Gestural is a synthetic version of progesterone called progestgen. They
may also be riskier than pills or other forms of
birth control pills because they are used for years at
a time, sometimes up to a decade, and a peer
review study. A new research was published in the Journal
of the American Medical Association where a team from the
(28:37):
Danish Cancer Institute evaluated almost one hundred and fifty eight
thousand women and girls age between fifteen and forty nine,
and the half of the participants were prescribed a hormonal
IUD using this particular drug, the same drug found in
the morning after pill, while the other had used other
(29:01):
forms of birth control or no contraception at all. And
the pardicipants, I'm telling you forty percent rise in women
who are using these hormone infused IUDs, and if they're
using it long term, eighty percent risk of developing breast cancer.
(29:25):
No wonder we're seeing rises in the United States. This
is what's going on. How on earth did this cancer
causing product get approved by the FDA and was allowed
to be sold here in the US. Well, it's all
about money, folks. The FDA, the wholly owned subsidiary of
(29:46):
Big Pharma, once again exerting its power. That's the health
outrage of the week. We're gonna go right back to
phone calls after the product recall, right after this. I'm
doctor Bob Martin, US sod Ham halm abuser number Simon Pencible,
(30:20):
the old one, never single minds a power hole.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
I don't red I'm most today.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
All right, doctor Bob Martin'm back with you. Appreciate you
tuning into the program today. I hope you're doing well. Uh.
Here is the product recall of the week. Thousands of
bottles of antidepressants have been recalled across the United States
after they were found to contain levels of a potentially
(30:56):
cancer causing chemical above the acceptable limits as set out
by the Food and Or Administration. The recall of something
called de luxetine capsules, also known as cymbalta. Symbalta, produced
by Tawa Pharmaceuticals in Europe, was initiated on October the
tenth has been given a second highest risk classification by
(31:19):
the FDA. Cymbalta is a drug used to manage depression
and anxiety and nerve pain. It doesn't work for that
by the way, such as fibermyalgia. It works by increasing
levels of mood boosting chemicals in the brain. However, during
its production, a chemical known as n nitrosamine deluxitine can
(31:40):
also be produced. The chemical belongs to a chemical group
of nitrosamines that may be found in water and food products. However,
they when they are present in a higher concentration we
are exposed to them for an extended period of time.
These chemicals may increase the risk of developing cancer, and
as a result, concentrations are strictly limited by the FDA.
(32:03):
Or at least they're supposed to. And in this case,
you know you have to worry about the side effects
of this drug called cymbalta, which is used for depression
and anxiety and nerve pain. If you have to worry
about the side effects like headaches and feeling dizzy and
blurred vision, and constipation and diarrhea, dry mouth, sweating, tiredness.
(32:23):
A list goes on and on and on. And the
serious side effects from taking cymbalta include hallucinations, yellowing of
your eyes. What's that say about your liver, eye pain,
blurred vision, cheese zeukes, bleeding gums. Here's another one. Not good,
and so watch out for that if you're taking it.
(32:46):
Talk to your pharmacist, to your doctor asking them about
the recall that's going on because there was a cancer
causing agent found in the drug cymbalta. A lot of
people are taking that in the US. All right, let's
get back to your phone calls and open line questions
at eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to
two one eight hundred and six zero six eighty eight
two to two. Next up, we say hello to Beth
(33:07):
in Melton, Tennessee.
Speaker 8 (33:10):
Hello, my name is Beth. I'm from mal Time, Tennessee,
and my question is my dad is seventy eight and
he got drafted in the military, and while there he
got diagnosed with shark Mam Marie to syndrome. He's seventy
eight years old now and he's bettering and they're blaming
(33:31):
it on all kinds of other problems. But what is
their vitamins or because they've got him on a bunch
of prescription medicines for other things, what would be the
best vitamins.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
For it?
Speaker 8 (33:50):
Because I try to do exercises with his legs. Because
he's on hospits now, they won't do hisical therapy. I'm
a caregiver, so I try to do it for him.
And thank you for taking my question.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Die all right, thank you for your call on his
behalf beath. Charcoal Marie tooth disease is a hereditary form
of peripheral neuropathy that can affect the nerves outside the
brain and the spinal cord, causing nerve damage. Now I
have treated this disease as charcoal Marie toothed disease. The
deformity associated with it is irreversible. You can't change the
(34:28):
deformities it's kind of a mysterious disease, and I've seen
like maybe a half dozen of those disease patients in
my career. What you have to do is you have
to support the nerve tissue with nutrients and try to
quell the inflammation from a conservative standpoint, doing contrast therapy
hot and cold, like in and out of a bath.
(34:50):
You know where you're sitting in a bath. You put
hot water in it and then you drain that and
you put cold water in it and you do back
and forth. That helps increase circulation. There's also something called
p e MF PEMF pulsed electromagnetic field. It's a mat
that someone lies down on in this mat and that
(35:10):
mat increases a cellular repair by increasing circulation and reducing inflammation.
You might want to just google it pe MF MATT
m Att. Also the nutrients for nerve growth factor with all,
which is with every person who has preferal neuropathy like
(35:31):
this needs nerve growth factor support. I would recommend curcumin
Omega three nony juice is great for this. Benfotiamin, alphaopoic acid,
methical boloment, and systemic enzymes. Now because he's on medications.
You might want to make sure that none of these
are going to interfere with any of his medications. So
(35:52):
check with a pharmacist or his treating doctor to make
sure there's no problem there. And I appreciate your phone called, Beth.
We say hello to Louis and Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
Louis fort Smith, Arkansas. My question is about my mother.
She is eighty four years old. She is in assisted
living and she has recurrent UTIs that end up putting
her in the hospital And I'm wondering is there something
(36:25):
more that could be done?
Speaker 3 (36:30):
Yes, there is, Louis, thank you for your calling her.
Behalf one. She's got to really stay hydrated, that's key,
and restrict all sugar, restrict chocolate, deserts. All that start
her on, doctor Ohhira is probiotics six capsules before bedtime,
and then she needs to be taking something called d
Manos powder. D Manos powder five grams of that in water,
(36:52):
three times a day. And these you can find at
the health food stores. All right, thank you for your call.
I must stay conche.
Speaker 9 (37:05):
To the ess and ca.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
So all right, doctor Bob Martin, back with you. Our
final segment of the day. And before I forget to
mention this again. If you want to stay healthy on
a budget and you are having to stretch every dollar
a little further these days, you're not alone. But our
good friends over at Walkinaga of America, fine makers of
Coyolic Age Garlic extract, want Doctor Bob Martin listeners to

take advantage of their oversupply of nutritional supplement samples. In fact,
they're giving away to Doctor Bob Martin Show listeners free
nutritional supplement samples and valuable money saving coupons for supplements
like that address cardiovascular health, immune support, or stress and
fatigue relief. Those are three different categories and all you
(37:55):
have to do is go to their website at Kyolic
Kyo l i C dot com, Forward Slash Radio and
request your free samples. That simple, and they'll ask for
you to verify where you came from. Just check the
box the Doctor Bob Martin's Show to get your free
nutritional supplements and money saving valuable health supplement coupons Kyolic
(38:18):
Kylic dot com, Forward Slash Radio. All right, it's time
now for the health mystery of the week. Bilingualism makes
the brain more efficient, especially when learned at a young age.
Neuroplasticity in the brain is stability to build connections within
itself adapting to its surrounding environment. The brain is plastic
(38:42):
or adaptable in childhood, forming new pathways in reaction to
stimulize such as language. Well past research has shown that
learning a second language bilinguism may positively affect attention, healthy aging,
and even recover after a brain injury. New study out
of McGill University finding out that the results of researchers
(39:04):
at this university found that bilingualism promotes two cognitive benefits,
a double advantage as they age. One that they are
more specialized and centralized functional connections that save resources compared
to those of diverse and multiple brain areas used by monolinguists.
(39:26):
That means someone just with learning one language and people
who are bilingual learning two languages. It starts to develop
their brains and they might explain why they are less
likely to get dementia later in life in cognitive aging problems.
So encourage your children to learn another language and they'll
(39:46):
be better off at the other end when they're older adults.
Mysterious as it sounds that qualified as the health mystery
of the week. All right, let's see if we can
squeeze another phone call it before the end of the hour.
Here is where is it? Where's ooops? Here's Robert in Illinois.
Speaker 9 (40:05):
Yeah, doctor, my name's Robert. I'm from Silvius, Illinois. My
question is how do you mitigate or lesson or cure.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
Ten itis.
Speaker 9 (40:19):
That's the question I have.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
All right, Robert, ringing in the ears. Well, stop all
caffeine or foods that have caffeine in them. Know that
there's over two hundred and fifty over the counter prescription
drugs that cause ringing in the ears. Try to stay
away from mona, sodium glutamate, and artificial sweeteners like nutrisweet,
asp for tame, sucrolos and sacharin. And then pick up
a formula called Ringstop Ringstop. It's in the health food stores.
(40:44):
It's a homeopathic formula. Thank you for your phone call.
Be well, everybody,

I am glad you decided to join us today. Welcome,
Welcome everyone to the Doctor Bob Martin Show. I'm Doctor
Bob and I'm here to encourage you to become your
own best doctor most of the time. Coming up this hour,
we have this week's installments of the Health Alternative of
the Week. We've got a health Outrage of the week
(01:45):
to tell you about anti product recall, and then the
health mystery will wrap the hour. I want to thank
doctor Fadua Gillanders, a doctor of pharmacology, who joined us
last hour in a discussion of weight and the fact
that America today we are mostly overweight or obese and
(02:08):
getting worse all the time. You cannot rely on the
sick care system to solve this problem. It's been getting
worse under their tutelage the whole way through for oh geez,
decades now, and it's getting worse all the time. Now,
we roll out drugs, these GLP one drugs like ozembic
and Wagavey and Munjura on all these other ones a
(02:32):
quick fix. They make a lot of money. The pharmaceutical
companies and people are having horrendous adverse side effect. Yes,
they're losing weight, but at what cost because as soon
as they stop the drug, the weight comes back, and
it comes on worse because you haven't solved the underlying
metabolic imbalance. You haven't changed your lifestyle, you haven't modified
(02:52):
any of your behavior in terms of what you eat
and or how you exercise or not. And with doctor
Gillanders as a doctor of pharmacy, she was talking about
the usage of lifestyle changes, exercise, proper eating and taking
a proprietary breakthrough nutritional supplement to help one lose weight
(03:17):
without having to go down the pathway of getting expensive
injections and adverse side effects of the drugs that are
now being pedled out there by the pharmaceutical companies. The
supplement we discussed was a supplement called Sculpt sc Ulpt
by a company by the name of Root Wellness. It's
a company that has put this together with a lot
(03:39):
of science behind it. It is rescuing people from their
excessive body weight by supporting healthy weight loss and targeting
the reduction of excess glucose caloric absorption. And yes, it
helps with appetite suppression as well and helps to burn
fat while it's the same time not exposing you to
(04:01):
adverse side effects. It's a proprietary blend of all natural ingredients.
It's multifaceted, patented technology, and you can find it if
you're interested in losing weight and losing it safely. You
can go to their website at the Root Root Brands
Theroot Brands dot com forward slash doctor Bob. That's Dr
(04:26):
Bob for the successful weight loss and balancing of your metabolism.
And as she pointed out, we're seeing important changes in
people with blood pressure and people with blood sugar problems.
And not to mention, the weight loss is just sort
of like a side effect of getting the body rebalanced.
You can't rebalance the body with these drugs that are
(04:48):
being pedled in the marketplace that are also causing lots
of adverse side effects. Not to mention they're incredibly expensive.
You can find sculpt S c U L P T
at Theroot Brands dot com Forward slash Doctor Bob. All right, now,
(05:08):
we're going to get right after this with our phone

Eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. To
ask your question, you'll hear me answer the phone. I'll
ask you to give your first name, only the city
and state you're living in, then your health question and
or your health comment. The landing site of all all
(05:50):
things related to news posted up on my website is
doctor Bob dot com. Spelling out the word doctor there
D O C T O R Bob dot com. All right,
let's go to the phones. We're going to begin with
Alice calling in from Medford, Oregon.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Hi.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
My name is Alice. I'm in Medford, Oregon. I lost
my balance as I was getting something out of the car,
and I sustained a large bruise over my left tip.
(06:33):
I am an eloquest, so I have a very dark
and dark and bruise area over my left hip of
coming down from the hip all the way into now
(06:58):
my knee area. All on this side, and I was
wondering what some of your recommendations would be to make
the bruise go away faster, and if there were some
clown I have no pain and I did not fracture
(07:22):
my hip, so I'm very lucky there. But I was
just wondering if you had some extra suggestions to expedite
healing the.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Okay, the bruise, I take it, Okay, yes I do.
Thanks for your call, Alice. By the way, since you're
taking an anti coagulant drug called Eloquence, you might want
to speak to your prescribing doctor about how that may
be impacting negatively the healing process of that wound that
you had from the fall. Now you can and also
use a topical homeopathic cream over the bruised area. It's
(08:06):
available in health food stores. It's called Arnica Bruise Relief
Arnica Bruise Relief Gel by a company called Boron. Additionally,
you can take additional amounts of vitamin C with Quercitan
and vitamin D will help that as well. All Right,
thank you for your call again, Alice. Next up is
Victoria from Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Victoria's Hot Springs, Arkansas. I think my.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
Thyroid is a little low.
Speaker 6 (08:38):
I did the test you recommended with the thermometer under
the arms, So what product would you recommend to boost
the thyroid? Thank you so much, appreciate all the hard
work you do.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You're terrific.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Well, thank you for your calling your kind of comment there, Victoria. Yes, yes,
you got to with keeping your thyroid in, your metabolism
working prereperly. You got to keep the exercise going. I
would also if you're having thyroid issues, I'd recommend you
stay away from caffeine. Caffeine literally sabotages thyroid function because
(09:17):
it interferes with depending on how much you're taking in,
it interferes with the conversion of T four to T three,
which is critical to thyroid functions. So either cut way
back on the caffeine or eliminate it altogether. Maybe go
to an herbal coffee that's non caffeinated, like Pero or
(09:37):
Caffeix or Roma. You can get these in health food stores,
or just like coffee without all the other caffeine. Also,
you can increase levels of idine by using foods like
edible seaweed. There's also celtic salt, would be fine, prunes, eggs,
(09:59):
and we just talked about last hour with weight. If
there's if it's a weight concern that you have, we
talked about using the supplement sculpt and with most people
that have thyroid problems, that usually have heavy metals in
their thyroid gland that have gone into the receptors blocking
the thyroid from working with the hormone that you're actually making.
(10:22):
So over at theroot Brands dot Com you'll find something
called clean slate. It is a liquid supplement you put
underneath your tongue to detoxify these heavy metals and these
toxins that get into the cells and the receptor sites
of the thyroid and other glands and organs. And then
(10:43):
you also find the weight loss supplement over their sculpt Sculpt.
That site is theroot Brands dot com, theroot Brands dot com.
And again thank you for your phone call, Victoria. I'm
doctor Bob Martin.

over at doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor,
docto r bob dot com. And this this week we
have a health pole question over there we'd love to
get your opinion of. Apparently, in the state of Florida,
they have banned the sale of lab grown meats, meaning
(13:14):
that instead of getting your cow meat and pig meat,
and chicken meat and turkey meat and all the rest
of it from the farm or outside producers of live animals,
they're actually producing meat in laboratories now artificially. And so
(13:36):
the state of Florida has banned that sale in Florida.
And we're asking you the question, are you in favor
of a nationwide ban on lab grown meat? Yes?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Or no?
Speaker 3 (13:49):
You can vote on that on my website at doctor
Bob dot com docto r bob dot com. All right,
before we get back to any of your back to
your phone call, your open question, health question, phone calls,
or health comments, we have for you. This week's installment
of the Health Alternative of the Week. Well, this is
(14:22):
just in time for the what I call the yearly
another yearly sugar orgy, wherein we go to the grocery store,
or we go to Costco or Sam's Club or somewhere
we buy these jiguando bags of nothing but junk food
sugar to hand out at Halloween. Once again, I'm going
(14:46):
to help you to break that behavior because it is
not a good behavior, because not only does it give
children at the door something that they don't need, it
also causes you to eat the candy that's left over
and have an excuse to eat it, which is not
good either. And that stuff lasts for a long time.
People were eating these Halloween candies and these gigantic bags
(15:09):
for weeks and months. Don't do that. No tricks this year,
just natural treats. It's time. It's the time of the
year when we go off the rail, if you will,
on our good eating program, and we start woofing down
all these gooey, sugary, weight causing goodies that are put
(15:31):
out there, especially things like hard candy and lollypops that
dissolve slowly. Keeping your teeth coated full of sugar for
a long time. I mean, that's great for the dental industry,
but it's not good for you. You know, some of
these sour candies are even more harmful due to their
extreme acidity. Even sticky goo from these popcorn balls that
(15:56):
you see ad here to your teeth, and the popcorn
kernels can get stuck in your teeth and irritate your gums.
Don't go down that path. And by the way, and
I see these commercials now on television this time of
year where the little trigger treaters going up to the door.
The woman opens the door, and the girl, the girl
in the middle is one side, she's got a peanut
(16:17):
butter cup and the other is the Twix bar. And
the woman in the house is giving away peanut butter
cups and twigx bars, so she gets both and the
two little boys who are sitting standing next to her
get just one treat only because they're not as hooked
up with their Halloween costume. But I'm here to tell
(16:38):
you that those Twix bars are nothing but junk. Twix
bars are considered one of the worst, the very worst
Halloween or any candy that you can put in your body.
They are because they contain fourteen grams of bad fat,
twenty eight grams of refined sugar, and nearly three hundred
(17:03):
calories per twix bar. We're talking about Twix. Stay away
from those things completely and don't hand them out to
anybody else. You're not doing them any favors either. It's
time to help yourself and make halloweens safer and healthier
this year, and you've got time to get started. You
(17:24):
can go Natural at Natural Grocer's brand Style. This year's
lineup includes organic snack packs you can get a hold
of those and popular bulk trail mixes which include nuts
and seeds, fresh superfruit and loaded full of healthy fats
and protein to fuel the body and the little trigger treaters.
(17:48):
They'll absolutely love it and you won't be poisoning them
with the junk food that you typically give out. Everybody wins.
Or you have an option of doing Tony's Cocoa so
Lonely White chocolates, raspberry candy bars to suit everyone's including
from vampires to tigers to monster turtles, whatever shows up
(18:10):
at your door. You have options that are safer, that
are healthier, Or you can also opt for natural fruit
snacks and fruit leathers from real fruit without added sugar.
That's an option for you this Halloween season. You've even
got yogurt covered raisins and pretzels or fruit cups. Be creative.
(18:31):
Don't go with the same stuff, the same junk food
that's contributing to the obesity of America, not to mention
rotted teeth. It's the season to be smook spooky. I
get that, but I'm going to skip the spooky ingredients
and I hope you will too. Will you make a
sugar free Halloween difference in your neighborhood this year by
(18:53):
checking out what Natural Grossers has to offer you and
your guests this Halloween. No tricks, just natural, healthy treats.
And if you don't happen to have a natural grocery
store near you, you can go to their website and
find out more about it at naturalgrocers dot com. Naturalgrocers
dot com. This week's health alternative of the week is
(19:17):
no tricks, just natural treats for you and those little
trick or treaters are gonna show up at your door.
Be different, be better, be healthier. Naturalgrocers dot com. All right,
let's get right back to your telephone calls and open
line health related questions at eight hundred six zero six
eight eight two two. It's that simple. You just call
(19:38):
this number and ask your health question. Eight hundred six
zero six eight eight two two. Here comes Phil in
Saint George Utah.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Phil, Saint George Utah want to talk about benefits of
natural medicines that actually your common cold, such as ulsharot
and a regular oil that will help fight inspection. And
(20:12):
I want to say that mankind was not wrong for
five hundred thousand years. Modern medicine does have its place, though.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
I agree. Modern medicine does have its place, but usually
that's crisis management and management rather than fixing stuff. Yes,
the vitamins to help support the immune system include vitamin A,
vitamin C, D three, zinc. Yes, I love oregano, it's excellent.
I'm not familiar with the one you said, bouchet Rue,
whatever that may be, but I agree with you. Conventional
(20:45):
care does trauma, carrics, severe acute disease, management, emergencies, all that,
but too often utilized. Appreciate the phone call, Phil, Thank you.
Speaker 7 (21:00):
Anybody's got fay mistakes, but everybody's got a choice to make.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Everybody needs to leave the faith. When are you taking yours.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Money?
Speaker 3 (21:13):
You info? All right, doctor Bob martzing back with you.
Thank you so very much for tuning into the program
today and telling others to do the very same thing.
And if there is somebody in your life that you
believe could benefit by tuning into this radio show, the
(21:36):
way to do so, to refer them to the program
is jut down the call letters of the radio station
you're listening to right now, is it an amor FM station,
the frequency on the dial, time of the day, and
just pass that out to as many people as you
can so they too can enjoy this radio show. And
while you're at it, we would love to get your
(21:56):
opinion of this week's health phole question over on my
website at doctor Bob dot com. It goes like this,
the state of Florida has banned the sale of lab
grown meats. Whether that be beef, pork, foldry, it doesn't matter.
They banned it in the state of Florida. So we're
asking you the question on my website at doctor Bob
(22:17):
dot com, spelling out the word doctor. Are you in
favor of a nationwide ban on lab grown meat. Yes
or no. Please vote on that and we'll have the
results and tell you about it in the next show
coming up. Also shortly here will be the health outrage
of the week. Stay tuned for that. Now, this is
a perfect time to remind you that our dental health
(22:40):
is so important. This is the time of year where
I believe dental care starts to rise because people now
are going to from Halloween all the way through the
holiday at the end of the year, are going to
be exposing themselves to a lot of sweets, a lot
of desserts, a lot of candies, a lot of junk food.
Those simple carbohydrates get into the oral cavity and they
(23:02):
stay there and then they start to feed the bacteria
in the oral cavity in the mouth. The bacteria uses
those simple carbohydrates and then they excrete their toxins out,
those toxins, those acids, These Streptococcus mutans germs, they excrete
it right there in your mouth. I know it all
sounds gross, but it's true. And those excretions are the
(23:26):
things that break down the enamel of your teeth, cause
inflammation of your gums, and create all kinds of dental
problems you don't need or want. What I suggest you
do is pull back on the sugar going in and
all the other things that could damage your oral cavity,
your teeth, your mouth, and use the Spry dental defense
system like doctor Bob does and my family and my colleagues.
(23:49):
Spry is spelled spry. If you don't want to develop
tooth to care or gingivitis, periorotyl disease, or even bad breath,
the Spry toothpaste and the Spry mouth rints is the
way to go. And I personally just cannot even in
my mind think about going to the dentist because it
(24:12):
conjures up fear and anxiety and elevated blood pressure. Because
as a young boy, I got traumatized in the dental
chair because my parents didn't understand that brushing teeth helps
people avoid tooth decay and dentures. They would have told
me that had they known they were full dentured up already.
(24:33):
So don't go down that path. Do what I'm doing
to prevent dental problems and bad news. When you're in
the dental chair and they're whispering in your ear, you
have a cavity, You need a crown. You need a filling,
you need a root canal, you need something. The Spry
Dental Defense System which comes in various flavors, delicious flavors
(24:54):
of peppermint, cinnamon, and spearmint. It is really the secret sauce,
the xylottole in there that caused those germs to leave
the oral cavity tricks them and when they consume it,
they die. It's plant based, it's all natural. It works,
and it has kept my oral cavity in my family's
oral cavity healthy all these years, and it will be
for you as well. So the next time you're baby
(25:17):
in your dental practice, whether it's the hygieniester or the dentist,
they're going to be impressed with what you're doing. Just
tell them you're using the Spry s p r Y
Dental Defense System. You can find it at CVS or
write Aid Pharmacies, target vitamin shops, Sprouts and other fine
health food stores throughout the nation, or you can go
to their website to learn more at Clear x l
(25:39):
e a r dot com, Clear dot com for Spry
Dental Defense. They're the people who make the Clear nasal
sprays x L e AR Clear Nasal Sprays for Spray
Dental Defense at Clear dot com. All right time now,
ladies and gentlemen, for this week's installment of the health
(25:59):
outrun age of the week. She's I don't believe it
come on each time for the hell outbridge because it's nothing,
but it is outrageous, big time warning out. You may
have heard of this over birth control device used by
(26:22):
millions and millions of women that may risk them getting cancer.
So using this birth control device may cause cancer in
women who are not trying to get pregnant. A common
IU DA IUD inter uterine device birth control may raise
(26:42):
the risk of breast cancer. That's what the research is
now suggesting women who used hormonal IUDs, which slowly releases
a contraceptive level nor gestural we're forty percent forty percent
more likely to be die gnosed with breast cancer within
(27:03):
five years than women who were on some other form
of birth control. Now, I asked the question, which is outrageous,
how did this ever get on the market If it
increases the risk of breast cancer by a whopping forty
percent of those women who are using these IUDs that
impart a contraceptive synthetic analog hormone into their system. Among
(27:27):
the women who used them over a decade, the risk
went up to eighty percent. Oh my gosh. About one
in five sexually active women in the United States use IUDs,
which are inserted into the uterus by a doctor and
last anywhere between three to eight years. Many women opt
(27:51):
for these so they don't have to remember to take
a birth control pill every day or have to have
their their more significant other using some form of other
countries that like condoms. Experts suggest that this may be
due to the hormones like progesterone, binding to proteins in
the breasts and fueling certain forms of cancer. Levo noor
(28:14):
Gestural is a synthetic version of progesterone called progestgen. They
may also be riskier than pills or other forms of
birth control pills because they are used for years at
a time, sometimes up to a decade, and a peer
review study. A new research was published in the Journal
of the American Medical Association where a team from the
(28:37):
Danish Cancer Institute evaluated almost one hundred and fifty eight
thousand women and girls age between fifteen and forty nine,
and the half of the participants were prescribed a hormonal
IUD using this particular drug, the same drug found in
the morning after pill, while the other had used other
(29:01):
forms of birth control or no contraception at all. And
the pardicipants, I'm telling you forty percent rise in women
who are using these hormone infused IUDs, and if they're
using it long term, eighty percent risk of developing breast cancer.
(29:25):
No wonder we're seeing rises in the United States. This
is what's going on. How on earth did this cancer
causing product get approved by the FDA and was allowed
to be sold here in the US. Well, it's all
about money, folks. The FDA, the wholly owned subsidiary of
(29:46):
Big Pharma, once again exerting its power. That's the health
outrage of the week. We're gonna go right back to
phone calls after the product recall, right after this. I'm
doctor Bob Martin, US sod Ham halm abuser number Simon Pencible,
(30:20):
the old one, never single minds a power hole.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
I don't red I'm most today.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
All right, doctor Bob Martin'm back with you. Appreciate you
tuning into the program today. I hope you're doing well. Uh.
Here is the product recall of the week. Thousands of
bottles of antidepressants have been recalled across the United States
after they were found to contain levels of a potentially
(30:56):
cancer causing chemical above the acceptable limits as set out
by the Food and Or Administration. The recall of something
called de luxetine capsules, also known as cymbalta. Symbalta, produced
by Tawa Pharmaceuticals in Europe, was initiated on October the
tenth has been given a second highest risk classification by
(31:19):
the FDA. Cymbalta is a drug used to manage depression
and anxiety and nerve pain. It doesn't work for that
by the way, such as fibermyalgia. It works by increasing
levels of mood boosting chemicals in the brain. However, during
its production, a chemical known as n nitrosamine deluxitine can
(31:40):
also be produced. The chemical belongs to a chemical group
of nitrosamines that may be found in water and food products. However,
they when they are present in a higher concentration we
are exposed to them for an extended period of time.
These chemicals may increase the risk of developing cancer, and
as a result, concentrations are strictly limited by the FDA.
(32:03):
Or at least they're supposed to. And in this case,
you know you have to worry about the side effects
of this drug called cymbalta, which is used for depression
and anxiety and nerve pain. If you have to worry
about the side effects like headaches and feeling dizzy and
blurred vision, and constipation and diarrhea, dry mouth, sweating, tiredness.
(32:23):
A list goes on and on and on. And the
serious side effects from taking cymbalta include hallucinations, yellowing of
your eyes. What's that say about your liver, eye pain,
blurred vision, cheese zeukes, bleeding gums. Here's another one. Not good,
and so watch out for that if you're taking it.
(32:46):
Talk to your pharmacist, to your doctor asking them about
the recall that's going on because there was a cancer
causing agent found in the drug cymbalta. A lot of
people are taking that in the US. All right, let's
get back to your phone calls and open line questions
at eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to
two one eight hundred and six zero six eighty eight
two to two. Next up, we say hello to Beth
(33:07):
in Melton, Tennessee.
Speaker 8 (33:10):
Hello, my name is Beth. I'm from mal Time, Tennessee,
and my question is my dad is seventy eight and
he got drafted in the military, and while there he
got diagnosed with shark Mam Marie to syndrome. He's seventy
eight years old now and he's bettering and they're blaming
(33:31):
it on all kinds of other problems. But what is
their vitamins or because they've got him on a bunch
of prescription medicines for other things, what would be the
best vitamins.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
For it?
Speaker 8 (33:50):
Because I try to do exercises with his legs. Because
he's on hospits now, they won't do hisical therapy. I'm
a caregiver, so I try to do it for him.
And thank you for taking my question.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Die all right, thank you for your call on his
behalf beath. Charcoal Marie tooth disease is a hereditary form
of peripheral neuropathy that can affect the nerves outside the
brain and the spinal cord, causing nerve damage. Now I
have treated this disease as charcoal Marie toothed disease. The
deformity associated with it is irreversible. You can't change the
(34:28):
deformities it's kind of a mysterious disease, and I've seen
like maybe a half dozen of those disease patients in
my career. What you have to do is you have
to support the nerve tissue with nutrients and try to
quell the inflammation from a conservative standpoint, doing contrast therapy
hot and cold, like in and out of a bath.
(34:50):
You know where you're sitting in a bath. You put
hot water in it and then you drain that and
you put cold water in it and you do back
and forth. That helps increase circulation. There's also something called
p e MF PEMF pulsed electromagnetic field. It's a mat
that someone lies down on in this mat and that
(35:10):
mat increases a cellular repair by increasing circulation and reducing inflammation.
You might want to just google it pe MF MATT
m Att. Also the nutrients for nerve growth factor with all,
which is with every person who has preferal neuropathy like
(35:31):
this needs nerve growth factor support. I would recommend curcumin
Omega three nony juice is great for this. Benfotiamin, alphaopoic acid,
methical boloment, and systemic enzymes. Now because he's on medications.
You might want to make sure that none of these
are going to interfere with any of his medications. So
(35:52):
check with a pharmacist or his treating doctor to make
sure there's no problem there. And I appreciate your phone called, Beth.
We say hello to Louis and Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Speaker 4 (36:04):

Speaker 3 (36:30):
Yes, there is, Louis, thank you for your calling her.
Behalf one. She's got to really stay hydrated, that's key,
and restrict all sugar, restrict chocolate, deserts. All that start
her on, doctor Ohhira is probiotics six capsules before bedtime,
and then she needs to be taking something called d
Manos powder. D Manos powder five grams of that in water,
(36:52):
three times a day. And these you can find at
the health food stores. All right, thank you for your call.
I must stay conche.
Speaker 9 (37:05):
To the ess and ca.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
So all right, doctor Bob Martin, back with you. Our
final segment of the day. And before I forget to

Kylic dot com, Forward Slash Radio. All right, it's time
now for the health mystery of the week. Bilingualism makes
the brain more efficient, especially when learned at a young age.
Neuroplasticity in the brain is stability to build connections within
itself adapting to its surrounding environment. The brain is plastic
(38:42):
or adaptable in childhood, forming new pathways in reaction to
stimulize such as language. Well past research has shown that
learning a second language bilinguism may positively affect attention, healthy aging,
and even recover after a brain injury. New study out
of McGill University finding out that the results of researchers
(39:04):
at this university found that bilingualism promotes two cognitive benefits,
a double advantage as they age. One that they are
more specialized and centralized functional connections that save resources compared
to those of diverse and multiple brain areas used by monolinguists.
(39:26):
That means someone just with learning one language and people
who are bilingual learning two languages. It starts to develop
their brains and they might explain why they are less
likely to get dementia later in life in cognitive aging problems.
So encourage your children to learn another language and they'll
(39:46):
be better off at the other end when they're older adults.
Mysterious as it sounds that qualified as the health mystery
of the week. All right, let's see if we can
squeeze another phone call it before the end of the hour.
Here is where is it? Where's ooops? Here's Robert in Illinois.
Speaker 9 (40:05):
Yeah, doctor, my name's Robert. I'm from Silvius, Illinois. My
question is how do you mitigate or lesson or cure.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
Ten itis.
Speaker 9 (40:19):
That's the question I have.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
All right, Robert, ringing in the ears. Well, stop all
caffeine or foods that have caffeine in them. Know that
there's over two hundred and fifty over the counter prescription
drugs that cause ringing in the ears. Try to stay
away from mona, sodium glutamate, and artificial sweeteners like nutrisweet,
asp for tame, sucrolos and sacharin. And then pick up
a formula called Ringstop Ringstop. It's in the health food stores.
(40:44):
It's a homeopathic formula. Thank you for your phone call.
Be well, everybody,
