too is the number to call. We begin this hour
with a top medical doctor warning of common drugs taken
by millions of Americans that can lead to heart attacks.
(03:15):
And I dare say that a good number of listeners
in this audience, if you went to your medicine cabinet
or where you hold your over the counter and prescription drugs,
you would find the drugs that this doctor is talking about.
This top medical doctor warning people that these drugs can
(03:38):
cause or lead to heart attacks. I hope they're you
know you need you need to pay good attention to this.
A top medical doctor has revealed which common medications taken
by millions could put you at risk of a heart attack.
Doctor Zayan Hassan, a renowned anesthesiologist in the state of California,
(03:59):
highlighted the fact that these non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs
otherwise known as enseids, like a Leave which is Napperson
and Motrin, which is ibuprofen, and there are others, but
those are the two main drugs he's talking about, when
(04:20):
taken on a regular basis, can increase.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Your risk of heart attack.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
While these medications are used, of course, to reduce pain,
they're used to reduce inflammation and fever. Over time, they
can cause changes to the blood that raises the chance
of heart attacks and strokes. Think how many people have
probably had strokes and heart attacks that they didn't blame
(04:47):
on anything but the person's age, or their gender or
something else, when in fact, if you looked in their body,
they may have had these drugs motrin, ibuprofi and a
leave neproxin or something else aspirin or some non and
inflammatory celebres whatever it may be floating around under bloodstream
(05:09):
that actually caused the heart attack or the stroke, and
the death certificate didn't even include that. Well, this doctor
here is coming clean about the fact the risks which
we need to know about. This is not new information
if taken for prolonged periods of times, these drugs and
I understand pain is harsh. Nobody wants arthritis, nobody wants stiffness,
(05:32):
and sometimes, unfortunately, when you have a trauma. You need
to take these things prolonged to get relief from pain,
so you can sleep, you can rest, you can quiet down.
But way too many people take these drugs way too often,
when other options exist that ought to be explored that
they don't know about because their doctors don't know about them,
and so they haven't been told. If taken for prolonged
(05:54):
periods of time, these in said drugs, these paincular drugs,
these anti inflammatory drugs, can cause blood clot to form
more easily, which can block arteries in the heart, and
they can potentially be raising your blood.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Pressure through fluid retention.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
You think about that, so you go to your doctrin
and you say, oh, doctor, gosh, I have a blood
pressure coming home and suddenly my blood pressure's up, and
your doctor puts you on a blood pressure medication. From
the very drugs you're taking for the pain. Now you're
on another drug polypharmacy. The FDA says, the drugs that
we're talking about here, the end set drugs, the n
(06:35):
inflammatory drugs, which are over the counter end prescription, can
increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes by between
ten percent to fifty percent or more. So this isn't
a small problem an isolated problem, depending on the drugs
and the dose is studied. The risk in particularly it
(06:55):
is particularly high for individuals with pre existing heart conditions,
which is why people are urged to discuss their drug
intake with their doctor. Now, this doctor Hassan, who's blowing
the whistle on this, This medical doctor from the state
of California, also warns about the risks associated with cortical
steroids such as prednosome, which are a different class of
(07:20):
anti inflammatory drugs compared to insets non steroidal an inflammatory
drugs like motrin and a leave and ibuprofen and so forth.
These drugs used to treat conditions like asthma. We're talking
now about cortical steroids. Asthma, allergic reactions, arthritis, autoimmune diseases,
(07:40):
and inflammatory bowel disease. Can also cause water retention excuse me,
which is then can affect your heart long term as well.
And cordico steroids can narrow blood vessels, leading to an
increased blood pressure over time. This damages arteries and decreases
(08:01):
the overload on the heart, making it more susceptible to
blockages and heart failure. You never told this Rarely are
people even disclosed this, and yet they're taking these drugs
that leave them at risk of heart attack and strokes.
These types of steroids may also lead to hardening of
your arteries, which makes it more difficult to get blood
(08:23):
to the heart properly. In a number in at number
three of doctor Hassan's list of drugs that can increase
your risk leading to heart attack are chemotherapy shots or
chemotherapy drugs. Explaining is reasoning certain chemotherapy drugs can affect
(08:46):
your heart, causing heart failure and can cause breathing difficulty.
Doctor Hassan says that chemotherapy certain chemotherapy drugs are some
of the worst defenders to developing heart problems.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
So then on top of cancer, you have a heart problem. Wow.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Researchers are now trying to understand exactly how chemotherapy causes
heart failure and whether blocking a certain action and cancer
patients could prevent this from happening. Next this, doctor whistleblower
if you will from California says certain diabetes medication can
also affect your heart. He highlights that it isn't the
(09:28):
majority of diabetes medication, but certain types of medications like
a vandia. Of vandia given to diabetics are linked to
heart failure and can affect your heart long term. In fact,
one study found that individuals taking a type two diabetes
drug called of and andia, we're thirty three percent more
(09:49):
likely to have a heart attack, heart failure, or death
from heart problems or from other causes. The final drugs
that this dog, this whistleblower MD from California, touches on
are the drugs adderall riddling and other drugs used to
treat ADHD, which we talked about in our number one
(10:12):
of the show, are alarmingly this doctor says, these are
commonly prescribed heavily to children and in the US about
three point four million people between the ages of three
and seventeen are taking these ADHD drugs, and doctor Hassan
says these drugs, which can increase neural transmitters in the
brain and so forth, can impact your heart.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
So I got to give props to doctor.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Zane Hassan, a renowned anesseesiologist from California, for highlighting the
fact that these inflammatory drugs cause high risk in stroke
and heart attack. Wow, We'll come back with a health
alternative of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Oh all right, doctor Bob Marts it back with you.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
I want to thank you so very much for tuning
into the program today. We'll get to telephone calls, more
calls and questions here shortly, So stand by. And if
there's ever a time you need my help, my assistance
with your health, or just want to make a comment
related to health, We've got a total free number for
you to call in here. It is jot it down
(11:41):
for safekeeping eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
two eight hundred six zero six eighty two to two.
The website doctor bob dot com for all things news
and if you ever miss a show, you got the
podcast library there, plus the Instagram X link.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
It's all there.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
It's time now, ladies, and for this week's installment of
the Health Alternative of the Week.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Well behind the.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Dilemma of Me, just mentioning this top doctor in the
state of California warning people about common drugs, over the
counter drugs and nonstreoidal and inflammatory drugs painkiller drugs increasing
greatly your risk of heart attack when you take them
for prolonged periods of time, and a lot of people
take them for prolonged periods of time. Okay, so I
offer up the health alternative of the week, which sort
(12:38):
of addresses the options that you have. The health alternative
of the week. So, if you've ever suffered from a headache,
and a lot of people take these nonstroidal and inflammatory
drugs or headaches, or you have joint pain or a backache,
or some type of swelling, maybe an extremity like a
knee or an elbow or a wrist, or you have
achy muscles, you've experienced the body's inflammatory process at work.
(13:05):
It's the body's way of trying to heal itself. It's
the body's way of stopping you from damaging yourself any
further by giving you pain and swelling, hoping that you'll
get rest and recover sufficiently. But a lot of people don't.
They override it with drugs, thinking, oh, well, i've got
to go work, i've got to go run, I've got
to do something, and I can't have this pain, so
(13:26):
I'm just gonna block it out with these drugs. Well, meanwhile,
they damage the very part that's trying to get rest
and recovery, and they increase their risk of heart and
stroke problems. Doctor Bob Martin to the rescue. You know,
sometimes pain is difficult to bear. We know that, and
we're happy to have these drugs around when we need it,
but way too many people take them, way too often,
(13:47):
when other safe and effective options exist, and I'm here
to tell you about it in the Health Alternative of
the Week. Well, there are plenty of nonstratal and inflammatory
drugs out there, including some of those that you know
about aspirin, ibuprofen, advil, motor nut prox and a leave
celebrates all of that and others that might get rid
of painful symptoms. They also cause an increased risk, as
(14:10):
I just mentioned, of heart attack, stroke, and a whole
long list of other things, ulcers, the list goes on
and on. The risk is high whether you have heart
disease or not, but the risk is even greater in
those who do have heart disease.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
And a lot of people have.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Heart disease since it's the number two killer behind medical
miscare in the United States. So it's best for people
with heart disease not to use and said drugs if possible,
but always ask your doctor about that. Fortunately, there are
some natural remedies we're going to highlight here in the
(14:46):
health alternative of the week that are just as effective
as taking end sets. There are, you just need to
know about them, and it's based on science. Studies showed
that a supplement called cure amed write this down See
You are a Med Cuamed by Terry Naturally Vitamins was
(15:07):
just as effective as taking ibuprofen for reducing inflammation, swelling,
and pain. A twenty twenty three meta analysis found that
cu amed see you are a Med, a safe in
all natural nutritional supplement by Terry Naturally Vitamins was effective
for muscular skeletal disorders across the board, pain reduction, inflammation
(15:31):
reducing inflammation, and pain and muscle soreness. Studies also indicate
that another supplement that you may want to look into
for changing things up. I'm not telling you to stop
your drugs. That's a decision you'll have to make. I'm
just giving you some viable options that are safe and
effective that won't put you at risk of a heart
attack effect just the opposite of that or stroke. Studies
(15:54):
indicate that another formula now available called vascular Defense by
Sun Nutrition also provides effective pain relief for those suffering
from various types of pain, including acute and chronic conditions.
The vascular Defense by Sun Nutrition has systemic enzymes in it,
(16:16):
such as lumbro kinase, natokinase, seropeptase. You've got curcumin in there.
You've got these nitric oxide releasers and a lot of
the things that are shown scientifically to reduce pain and swelling.
Plus they reduce inflammation. So you have two options here
(16:43):
that you can lean on for pain reliefs, so you
don't have to reach so often for these nonsteroidal and
inflammatory drugs, which you have now learned cause a high
level of rate of risk in heart attack and stroke
taken for a certain period of time, and a lot
of people take them on an ongoing basis at high dose.
(17:07):
So write it down. CUAMED see you r a med
by Terry Naturally Vitamins or vascular defense by sun Nutrition.
You can find this CUREMD, by the way, in most
health food stores like natural grocers, they they carry curemed
or curemens. And then the vascular defense you'll find over
(17:28):
its sunnutrition dot com. Sunnutrition dot Com for vascular defense.
That's the same one, by the way, that helps to
derail spike proteins as in the long COVID vascular defense,
Sunnutrition dot com, or for pain, inflammation and all things relief.
In that category, the health alternative is curemed by Terry Naturallyevitamins.
(17:51):
You can also go to their website Naturalgrocers dot com
to find the cure of MEED formulation. This is the
week this week Health alternative of the week. All right,
let's get back to your phone calls and questions. Next
up is Bill in Seacon, Massachusetts.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Hi, doctor Bob, This is Bill from seaconk Massachusetts. And
my question is some nutritionists say that the different grasses
are good for us, like wheat grass and oak grass
and all the different grasses they put in their formula.
Others say they're just fillers and only cows should be
(18:27):
eating grass. We should not be eating or ingesting the
wheat grass and the oak glass and the wide grass.
I'm that lutitious, so I don't know the answer, but
you are, and I wanted if you could tell me
which is correct, should we be ingesting those different grasses
or not? And I will listen on the radio to
hear your answer. Thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Okay, Bill, thank you for your phone call. Great question.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I'm a big fan of taking in wheat grass juice.
It is one of the most dynamic, most powerful concentrated
nutrientuic juice you can find. In fact, they use it
in cancer clinics throughout the world. Whoever's giving you that
information or they're just misinformed. The human body we have
flat teeth, grinding teeth just like a cow, and we
(19:14):
also have a few insize, you know, pointed teeth that
for ripping meats and so forth, as we have evolved
over time. So no, wheat grass and other forms of
grass are highly nutritious. When they're taking in concentrated forms,
(19:35):
they put them through a juicer. I've taken many, many
over the years. Wheat grass one ounce, two ounce. You
gotta be careful with this stuff. You don't want to
take a lot of it all once.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
It's so potent.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
One time I took three ounces of it. It is
so concentrated. I got a stomach ache from it. But
I'll tell you what, I felt good after the stomach
ache went away. But I've used wheat grass juice and
other grass juices over the years.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
They are so good for you. Do not listen to
the chatter.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
It sounds like somebody that is probably on a carnivore
keto pure diet, which is good for certain things, not
good long term. That they're just sorely misinformed. If you
knew the nutritional array that's available in these concentrated grasses
like wheat grass. Uh, the chlorophyll, the vitamin K, the
(20:26):
vitamin A, the vitamin.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
C, all of it is. They're the minerals. It is
probably one of the few foods you could exist.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
On and not have to eat anything else if it
were if there was some type of a famine, because
it's got everything. So whoever you heard that from, uh
are there? They are pretty clueless. They don't know anything
about nutrition whatsoever. So discount it, Phil and I thank
you for your phone call.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
Bill.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
All right, coming up, ladies and gentlemen, the health outrage
of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martins.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
But everybody's got a choice to make. Everybody needs a
leap of faith. When are you taking you.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Money?
Speaker 2 (21:11):
You in phone hy Welcome you back to the Doctor
Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
We're gonna go to more of your phone calls and
questions on the topic of health very shortly here and
if you want to have your health question answered, or
you want to call in on behalf of somebody else
in your life who's got a health problem and they're
not able to call in, or just make a health
related comment, you may do so. Jot down our toll
free number eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
(21:42):
two eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to two. Remember,
the only bad question is when you're not asking related
to health. Tell doctor Bob where it hurts one eight
hundred six zero six eight eight two two coming up
very shortly will be the health outrage of the week.
Then we're gonna get back to more of your phone
calls and questions on the topic of concentrated foods and
(22:04):
how important foods are to human beings and getting the
nutrition we need. Let's put another one on the plate
for your consideration. That's called ronia berries. Have you heard
of aronia berries spelled aronia erronia berries. They are considered
one of the kings of superfoods because they're rich in
so many nutrients and so many antioxidants that we need
(22:27):
in our diet. They contain the all important phenol to compounds,
which naturally helps the plant, the ronia berry plant resist
disease and premature death. That's how they are able to survive.
But when we take them in, when we ingest them
as humans, we get a lot of bennies from them,
including providing anti inflammatory properties when we take in ronia berries,
(22:50):
and preventing a whole variety of different diseases. So take
a handful or two of ironia berries every day to
reduce your risk of diabetes, heart disease, kidney problems, liver problems,
even the big SA I mean cancer. It's even noteworthy
that to see that certain studies have proven and subsequently
published in scientific peer review journals that taking in ronia
(23:15):
berries can give you health giving compounds and reduce your
risk of the common flu and the common cold. So
go out find organic ronia berries each day. But if
you can't find them, please know that there's a more
convenient way, in a more cost effective way to benefit
(23:36):
through ronia berries, and that is by taking a nutritional
supplement called Erronia Berry Complex Aronia berry Complex by Terry
Naturally Vitamins. It contains something called extract ab forty which
delivers a concentrated and consistent source of the amazing superfruit
and additional the ronia berry complex includes French grape seed
(24:00):
extract via X one grape seed Extract, an incredible and
effective botanical for strong heart, muscle function, arterial protection, healthy
blood pressure and cholesterol balance. So look for Aronia very Complex,
the nutritional supplement by Terry Naturally Vitamins at Finer health
(24:20):
food stores nationwide. You can also go to the website
Terry Naturally Vitamins dot com Terry Naturallyvitamins dot com to
find Aronia berry Complex. All right, it is time now
for the health Outrage of the week.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
At the don't believe it come on each time for
the health Outbradge because it's nothing bullet. It is outrageous.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And so what I'm going to do here is I'm
going to play for you and audiotape shortly here of
the health outrage of the week.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
Now.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
I found this, I don't know where it was.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
I was combing through health information and there was this
this person.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Who was.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Claiming she was a food safety expert and saying that
you know, you should never eat sprouts because there's some
type of bacteria that forms on sprouts.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
And and it's true. I mean, food gets bacteria on it.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
That's why we when we go home, we wash it off,
and you always try to get organic when you can.
But what strikes me, what struck me about this person
was that here is this supposed food safety expert talking
about how bacteria can lay you out and make you sick.
And I'm looking at her in this and I can
(25:55):
see a visual picture of a video of her, and
she's got this gigantic nose ring. I mean it hung
down unbelievably low. She has this nose ring that has
pierced her nose epithelium, allowing bacteria to flow freely from
the air into the wound that she created with this
(26:15):
unnecessary puncture to the inside of her nose. And she's
trying to pitch us on staying away from sprouts because
they have bacteria on them. Listen to this cut go.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
Some people have asked me what foods I do not
eat as a food scientist, and I will list two
of them right now that are off the top of
my head. But I'm just warding you. You're gonna hate
me after this video. Number one, it's row sprouts. Sometimes
I will occasionally eat them, but they are a very,
very very high risk food and you have to know
(26:50):
about bacteria is they are like your besties on spring break.
They want to go somewhere hot and moist, and they
are thirsty.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Yeah, like your nose. Stop that tape. Stop that.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
I can't even stand to listen to her voice after
reading what she wrote.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I can't.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
She's telling you to stop one of the most nutritious
foods you can have, one of the foods that anti
and alternative cancer clinics around the world recommend people eat
more of. You've probably had sprouts before and haven't gotten sick.
And I, yes, there's always gonna be bacteria. There's bacteria
everywhere we live in it, it's swimming everywhere. But the
(27:26):
outrage here on the health outrage was, here's a person
trying to convince me or you to avoid sprouts because
of a bacteria that could be existing in them. And
millions of people eat them every day and don't get sick.
But of course you should always cleanse them and try
to get organic whenever possible. But you're missing out on
(27:46):
so many nutritional benefits by not eating these sprouts.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
But that's not the outrage.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
The outrages as I saw her, and you didn't get
a chance to see this. She's got this gigantic nose
ring hanging in her nasal cavity that somebody punctured upon
her request talk about a pathway to developing a bacterial infection.
It would be please stare in the mirror and look
(28:13):
at the hole that you created unnecessarily in your nose
before you get on TikTok or wherever you were, and
preach to us about bacteria and what foods to stay
away from because of the possibility of a bacterial infection.
She ladies and gentlemen, whoever she is, and I don't
even mention her name, is the health outrage of the week.
(28:35):
I always enjoy finding people like that who hypocritically try
to tell us one thing. And usually it's an elite
actor or actress from Hollywood trying to pitch us on something,
and they're morbidly obese, or they smoke cigarettes, or they
have some other health having they're telling you how to
run your health and health and to try to help
(28:57):
you out with health. It's outrageous, and that's why it
called as this week's health outrage of the week. You've
seen it, you've experienced it for yourself, but now at
least you know it's okay to talk about it, because
we did here on the radio show.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
And do eat sprouts. Find them.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
They're one of the best food you can eat. Yes,
find them in organic form when you can. To make
sure that garbage hasn't been sprayed on them, find a
store like Natural Grocers. That's USDA guaranteed no pesticides on
your produce. And then when you get home, of course,
(29:39):
wash them off thoroughly and then consume them. You'll be
better off if you do. No nose rings please, All right,
We're going to come back and go right to your
phone calls and your questions. Stay with us. You're tuned
into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
So I'm a bush of number Simoncible, the one ever
(30:21):
single means up.
Speaker 8 (30:25):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Today, Eddy Healthy, Welcome, Welcome back to this hour of
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. We'll get back to your
phone calls and questions momentarily, but before we get to that,
we've got a product recall of the week and it
sort of like ties in almost perfectly to what I
just talked about with contamination of foods, which we need
to do a better job of in the United States.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
And here is the latest product recall.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Broccoli that's on the tab here sold at Walmart recalled
in twenty states over listeria concerns. What to know The
recall affected bagged broccoli these are broccoli florets is now underway.
The recall in twenty states the non organic broccoli.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
By the way, and that's part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Non organic broccoli sold in Walmart's stores in many states
across the US has voluntarily recalled they're broccoli florets due
to the concern it may be contaminated with Listeria bacteria,
according to a notice posted on Food and Administration websites, Specifically,
the recall affected washed and ready to eat those little
(31:45):
twelve ounce bags of market sized broccoli florets from a
company called Braga Braga Fresh bag of Fresh avoid those.
The company explained in a press release. The issue was
discovered when random testing took place at a store in
(32:05):
Texas and one of the samples turned up positive for
Listeria bacteria that causes food borne illness. Listeria infection typically
is mild, causing symptoms like diarrhea and vomiting that can
usually resolve on their own in a few days, but
in some cases lysteria can be more severe. Especially illness
spreads outside of the intestine, so certain groups of people
(32:27):
like pregnant women and older adults or newborns and people
with a weekend immune system are more likely to develop
serious complications. So if you purchased any broccoli from Walmart,
those bags of it, the broccoli florets, take them back
at your money back, and do not eat them. Let's
(32:48):
go back to your telephone calls and questions again at
one eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to two.
That's how you get into the program to ask your
question about health or make your health comment. One eight
hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Next is
Marbara in Warwick, Warwick.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
New York.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
Hi, doctor Bob, This is Barbara from Warwick, New York.
I love your show and I listen to it every week.
I have a problem. I have mild glaucoma in my
left eye. I am also a hypothyroid. I've been taking
a Lacunta proast for several years. My pressure right now
is nineteen in my left eye, and my doctor is
(33:29):
not happy with it. He says, my visual field tests
are fine, but my oct keeps showing that it's not improving,
so he wants to now put me on timolo, which
I'm kind of concerned about. I do take the canc
I dropped, and when I was taking them twice a day,
two drops in each, it has brought my pressures down
to sixteen. But then after six months I went to
(33:53):
twice a day, two drops in eachi and now my
pressure is back up to nineteen. So I really don't
want to take timolol. I would rather do something natural.
I don't know if I can go back to the
original dosing of cancy or what I should do. So
I would appreciate all your health and I'm a great listener.
I love your show. Thank you have a good.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Day, Okay, Barbara, thank you for your calling your kind
comment there. Yes, it proves that your glaucoma can improve
by using an all natural eye drop, which was originally
developed for the reversal of cataracts and the prevention of cataracts.
But interestingly enough, when people with glaucoma use these eye drops,
(34:35):
their pressures go down. We don't know why yet. The
science will eventually figure it out. But if it works
and it's safe and natural, it's non drug.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Why not use it.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Yes, the answer is yes, you need to go back
to the double dose that you were on of the
can see Eye Drops by Wise Choice Medicine that will
reduce your glaucoma pressure and get you back to where
you need to be, and you may need to be
doing that for life in order to reduce your risk

Speaker 2 (37:21):
All right?
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Doctor Bob marching back with you. Thank you for tuning
into the program today. We're just in our final segment
of the show. I hope you've enjoyed it today, and
if you have, refer other people to the show so
they can as well. It's time now, ladies and gentlemen,
for this week's installment of the health Mystery of the Week.
Groundmaking research suggests organ transplant patients are inheriting donors memories
(37:47):
and personalities. People receiving organ transplants have reported strange changes
in their emotions, tastes, and memories. The phenomena is most
common in heart recipients, but those who have received kidneys, lungs,
and even faces transplants we're talking about here now have
also noticed changes to their food preferences, music choices, and
(38:12):
even sexual orientation. Mysteriously enough, some patients their new hobbies
and preferences mirror those of their donors. The donors that
have passed that they were receiving their organs from, which
has led experts to question if recipients are also receiving
(38:35):
their donors' memories. In a review published earlier this year,
researchers pointed to a case study of a nine year
old boy receiving a heart transplant from a three year
old girl who drowned in a family pool. Though the
boy had no idea who how the donor died, his
mother reported that he became deathly afraid of water.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Wow, this is where health mysteries come from. Is this
kind of stuff?
Speaker 3 (39:03):
That's the health mystery of the week. Let's see if
we can squeeze another phone calling before the end of
the hour, though. Next up is Frances calling in from
the beautiful state of Hawaii.
Speaker 8 (39:14):
From Hawaii, my health question is I've been dealing with
a soollen foot since July. I was wondering if you
have anything that I could do. I've tried everything else.
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I'm not sure what everything else means, Francis, thank you
for calling from Paradise, Hawaii, KHVH there in Honolulu. Well,
a swollen foot can be anything. I ask you the question,
have you visited a podiatrist? If you haven't, you should.
Now your foot swelling could be a biomechanical problem, which
means a misaligned bone in your foot or ankle. Please
(39:52):
visit a chiropractic physician for that. If you haven't, did
someone evaluate you medically for liver problem, kidney problems or
gout or some circulatory problem. Is there some kind of
infection that's going on topically in the foot. If you
want to, Francis, try a natural anti inflammatory to try
(40:14):
to get that down, along with elevation and maybe compression.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
You may do so.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
There's one on the market called curemed by Terry Naturally Vitamins,
and there's another one called Vascular Defense by Sunnutrition over
at sunnutrition dot com. I try those but find out,
Do not give up. Do continue to search for the
reason for that, because it could get worse. That is
my recommendation to you, and again I appreciate.
Speaker 2 (40:38):
Your phone call. Good health to you, Francis.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
All right, ladies and gentlemen, making a healthy day and
a healthy week until we're right back here next week.

later in we're going to have this week's installment of
the Health Alternative of the Week, the Health Outrage of
(02:07):

too is the number to call. We begin this hour
with a top medical doctor warning of common drugs taken
by millions of Americans that can lead to heart attacks.
(03:15):
And I dare say that a good number of listeners
in this audience, if you went to your medicine cabinet
or where you hold your over the counter and prescription drugs,
you would find the drugs that this doctor is talking about.
This top medical doctor warning people that these drugs can
(03:38):
cause or lead to heart attacks. I hope they're you
know you need you need to pay good attention to this.
A top medical doctor has revealed which common medications taken
by millions could put you at risk of a heart attack.
Doctor Zayan Hassan, a renowned anesthesiologist in the state of California,
(03:59):
highlighted the fact that these non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs
otherwise known as enseids, like a Leave which is Napperson
and Motrin, which is ibuprofen, and there are others, but
those are the two main drugs he's talking about, when
(04:20):
taken on a regular basis, can increase.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Your risk of heart attack.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
While these medications are used, of course, to reduce pain,
they're used to reduce inflammation and fever. Over time, they
can cause changes to the blood that raises the chance
of heart attacks and strokes. Think how many people have
probably had strokes and heart attacks that they didn't blame
(04:47):
on anything but the person's age, or their gender or
something else, when in fact, if you looked in their body,
they may have had these drugs motrin, ibuprofi and a
leave neproxin or something else aspirin or some non and
inflammatory celebres whatever it may be floating around under bloodstream
(05:09):
that actually caused the heart attack or the stroke, and
the death certificate didn't even include that. Well, this doctor
here is coming clean about the fact the risks which
we need to know about. This is not new information
if taken for prolonged periods of times, these drugs and
I understand pain is harsh. Nobody wants arthritis, nobody wants stiffness,
(05:32):
and sometimes, unfortunately, when you have a trauma. You need
to take these things prolonged to get relief from pain,
so you can sleep, you can rest, you can quiet down.
But way too many people take these drugs way too often,
when other options exist that ought to be explored that
they don't know about because their doctors don't know about them,
and so they haven't been told. If taken for prolonged
(05:54):
periods of time, these in said drugs, these paincular drugs,
these anti inflammatory drugs, can cause blood clot to form
more easily, which can block arteries in the heart, and
they can potentially be raising your blood.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Pressure through fluid retention.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
You think about that, so you go to your doctrin
and you say, oh, doctor, gosh, I have a blood
pressure coming home and suddenly my blood pressure's up, and
your doctor puts you on a blood pressure medication. From
the very drugs you're taking for the pain. Now you're
on another drug polypharmacy. The FDA says, the drugs that
we're talking about here, the end set drugs, the n
(06:35):
inflammatory drugs, which are over the counter end prescription, can
increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes by between
ten percent to fifty percent or more. So this isn't
a small problem an isolated problem, depending on the drugs
and the dose is studied. The risk in particularly it
(06:55):
is particularly high for individuals with pre existing heart conditions,
which is why people are urged to discuss their drug
intake with their doctor. Now, this doctor Hassan, who's blowing
the whistle on this, This medical doctor from the state
of California, also warns about the risks associated with cortical
steroids such as prednosome, which are a different class of
(07:20):
anti inflammatory drugs compared to insets non steroidal an inflammatory
drugs like motrin and a leave and ibuprofen and so forth.
These drugs used to treat conditions like asthma. We're talking
now about cortical steroids. Asthma, allergic reactions, arthritis, autoimmune diseases,
(07:40):
and inflammatory bowel disease. Can also cause water retention excuse me,
which is then can affect your heart long term as well.
And cordico steroids can narrow blood vessels, leading to an
increased blood pressure over time. This damages arteries and decreases
(08:01):
the overload on the heart, making it more susceptible to
blockages and heart failure. You never told this Rarely are
people even disclosed this, and yet they're taking these drugs
that leave them at risk of heart attack and strokes.
These types of steroids may also lead to hardening of
your arteries, which makes it more difficult to get blood
(08:23):
to the heart properly. In a number in at number
three of doctor Hassan's list of drugs that can increase
your risk leading to heart attack are chemotherapy shots or
chemotherapy drugs. Explaining is reasoning certain chemotherapy drugs can affect
(08:46):
your heart, causing heart failure and can cause breathing difficulty.
Doctor Hassan says that chemotherapy certain chemotherapy drugs are some
of the worst defenders to developing heart problems.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
So then on top of cancer, you have a heart problem. Wow.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Researchers are now trying to understand exactly how chemotherapy causes
heart failure and whether blocking a certain action and cancer
patients could prevent this from happening. Next this, doctor whistleblower
if you will from California says certain diabetes medication can
also affect your heart. He highlights that it isn't the
(09:28):
majority of diabetes medication, but certain types of medications like
a vandia. Of vandia given to diabetics are linked to
heart failure and can affect your heart long term. In fact,
one study found that individuals taking a type two diabetes
drug called of and andia, we're thirty three percent more
(09:49):
likely to have a heart attack, heart failure, or death
from heart problems or from other causes. The final drugs
that this dog, this whistleblower MD from California, touches on
are the drugs adderall riddling and other drugs used to
treat ADHD, which we talked about in our number one
(10:12):
of the show, are alarmingly this doctor says, these are
commonly prescribed heavily to children and in the US about
three point four million people between the ages of three
and seventeen are taking these ADHD drugs, and doctor Hassan
says these drugs, which can increase neural transmitters in the
brain and so forth, can impact your heart.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
So I got to give props to doctor.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Zane Hassan, a renowned anesseesiologist from California, for highlighting the
fact that these inflammatory drugs cause high risk in stroke
and heart attack. Wow, We'll come back with a health
alternative of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Oh all right, doctor Bob Marts it back with you.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
I want to thank you so very much for tuning
into the program today. We'll get to telephone calls, more
calls and questions here shortly, So stand by. And if
there's ever a time you need my help, my assistance
with your health, or just want to make a comment
related to health, We've got a total free number for
you to call in here. It is jot it down
(11:41):
for safekeeping eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
two eight hundred six zero six eighty two to two.
The website doctor bob dot com for all things news
and if you ever miss a show, you got the
podcast library there, plus the Instagram X link.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
It's all there.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
It's time now, ladies, and for this week's installment of
the Health Alternative of the Week.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Well behind the.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Dilemma of Me, just mentioning this top doctor in the
state of California warning people about common drugs, over the
counter drugs and nonstreoidal and inflammatory drugs painkiller drugs increasing
greatly your risk of heart attack when you take them
for prolonged periods of time, and a lot of people
take them for prolonged periods of time. Okay, so I
offer up the health alternative of the week, which sort
(12:38):
of addresses the options that you have. The health alternative
of the week. So, if you've ever suffered from a headache,
and a lot of people take these nonstroidal and inflammatory
drugs or headaches, or you have joint pain or a backache,
or some type of swelling, maybe an extremity like a
knee or an elbow or a wrist, or you have
achy muscles, you've experienced the body's inflammatory process at work.
(13:05):
It's the body's way of trying to heal itself. It's
the body's way of stopping you from damaging yourself any
further by giving you pain and swelling, hoping that you'll
get rest and recover sufficiently. But a lot of people don't.
They override it with drugs, thinking, oh, well, i've got
to go work, i've got to go run, I've got
to do something, and I can't have this pain, so
(13:26):
I'm just gonna block it out with these drugs. Well, meanwhile,
they damage the very part that's trying to get rest
and recovery, and they increase their risk of heart and
stroke problems. Doctor Bob Martin to the rescue. You know,
sometimes pain is difficult to bear. We know that, and
we're happy to have these drugs around when we need it,
but way too many people take them, way too often,
(13:47):
when other safe and effective options exist, and I'm here
to tell you about it in the Health Alternative of
the Week. Well, there are plenty of nonstratal and inflammatory
drugs out there, including some of those that you know
about aspirin, ibuprofen, advil, motor nut prox and a leave
celebrates all of that and others that might get rid
of painful symptoms. They also cause an increased risk, as
(14:10):
I just mentioned, of heart attack, stroke, and a whole
long list of other things, ulcers, the list goes on
and on. The risk is high whether you have heart
disease or not, but the risk is even greater in
those who do have heart disease.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
And a lot of people have.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Heart disease since it's the number two killer behind medical
miscare in the United States. So it's best for people
with heart disease not to use and said drugs if possible,
but always ask your doctor about that. Fortunately, there are
some natural remedies we're going to highlight here in the
(14:46):
health alternative of the week that are just as effective
as taking end sets. There are, you just need to
know about them, and it's based on science. Studies showed
that a supplement called cure amed write this down See
You are a Med Cuamed by Terry Naturally Vitamins was
(15:07):
just as effective as taking ibuprofen for reducing inflammation, swelling,
and pain. A twenty twenty three meta analysis found that
cu amed see you are a Med, a safe in
all natural nutritional supplement by Terry Naturally Vitamins was effective
for muscular skeletal disorders across the board, pain reduction, inflammation
(15:31):
reducing inflammation, and pain and muscle soreness. Studies also indicate
that another supplement that you may want to look into
for changing things up. I'm not telling you to stop
your drugs. That's a decision you'll have to make. I'm
just giving you some viable options that are safe and
effective that won't put you at risk of a heart
attack effect just the opposite of that or stroke. Studies
(15:54):
indicate that another formula now available called vascular Defense by
Sun Nutrition also provides effective pain relief for those suffering
from various types of pain, including acute and chronic conditions.
The vascular Defense by Sun Nutrition has systemic enzymes in it,
(16:16):
such as lumbro kinase, natokinase, seropeptase. You've got curcumin in there.
You've got these nitric oxide releasers and a lot of
the things that are shown scientifically to reduce pain and swelling.
Plus they reduce inflammation. So you have two options here
(16:43):
that you can lean on for pain reliefs, so you
don't have to reach so often for these nonsteroidal and
inflammatory drugs, which you have now learned cause a high
level of rate of risk in heart attack and stroke
taken for a certain period of time, and a lot
of people take them on an ongoing basis at high dose.
(17:07):
So write it down. CUAMED see you r a med
by Terry Naturally Vitamins or vascular defense by sun Nutrition.
You can find this CUREMD, by the way, in most
health food stores like natural grocers, they they carry curemed
or curemens. And then the vascular defense you'll find over
(17:28):
its sunnutrition dot com. Sunnutrition dot Com for vascular defense.
That's the same one, by the way, that helps to
derail spike proteins as in the long COVID vascular defense,
Sunnutrition dot com, or for pain, inflammation and all things relief.
In that category, the health alternative is curemed by Terry Naturallyevitamins.
(17:51):
You can also go to their website Naturalgrocers dot com
to find the cure of MEED formulation. This is the
week this week Health alternative of the week. All right,
let's get back to your phone calls and questions. Next
up is Bill in Seacon, Massachusetts.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Hi, doctor Bob, This is Bill from seaconk Massachusetts. And
my question is some nutritionists say that the different grasses
are good for us, like wheat grass and oak grass
and all the different grasses they put in their formula.
Others say they're just fillers and only cows should be
(18:27):
eating grass. We should not be eating or ingesting the
wheat grass and the oak glass and the wide grass.
I'm that lutitious, so I don't know the answer, but
you are, and I wanted if you could tell me
which is correct, should we be ingesting those different grasses
or not? And I will listen on the radio to
hear your answer. Thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Okay, Bill, thank you for your phone call. Great question.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I'm a big fan of taking in wheat grass juice.
It is one of the most dynamic, most powerful concentrated
nutrientuic juice you can find. In fact, they use it
in cancer clinics throughout the world. Whoever's giving you that
information or they're just misinformed. The human body we have
flat teeth, grinding teeth just like a cow, and we
(19:14):
also have a few insize, you know, pointed teeth that
for ripping meats and so forth, as we have evolved
over time. So no, wheat grass and other forms of
grass are highly nutritious. When they're taking in concentrated forms,
(19:35):
they put them through a juicer. I've taken many, many
over the years. Wheat grass one ounce, two ounce. You
gotta be careful with this stuff. You don't want to
take a lot of it all once.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
It's so potent.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
One time I took three ounces of it. It is
so concentrated. I got a stomach ache from it. But
I'll tell you what, I felt good after the stomach
ache went away. But I've used wheat grass juice and
other grass juices over the years.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
They are so good for you. Do not listen to
the chatter.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
It sounds like somebody that is probably on a carnivore
keto pure diet, which is good for certain things, not
good long term. That they're just sorely misinformed. If you
knew the nutritional array that's available in these concentrated grasses
like wheat grass. Uh, the chlorophyll, the vitamin K, the
(20:26):
vitamin A, the vitamin.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
C, all of it is. They're the minerals. It is
probably one of the few foods you could exist.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
On and not have to eat anything else if it
were if there was some type of a famine, because
it's got everything. So whoever you heard that from, uh
are there? They are pretty clueless. They don't know anything
about nutrition whatsoever. So discount it, Phil and I thank
you for your phone call.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
Bill.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
All right, coming up, ladies and gentlemen, the health outrage
of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martins.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
But everybody's got a choice to make. Everybody needs a
leap of faith. When are you taking you.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Money?

questions on the topic of health very shortly here and
if you want to have your health question answered, or
you want to call in on behalf of somebody else
in your life who's got a health problem and they're
not able to call in, or just make a health
related comment, you may do so. Jot down our toll
free number eight hundred six zero six eight eight two

the only bad question is when you're not asking related
to health. Tell doctor Bob where it hurts one eight
hundred six zero six eight eight two two coming up
very shortly will be the health outrage of the week.
Then we're gonna get back to more of your phone
calls and questions on the topic of concentrated foods and
(22:04):
how important foods are to human beings and getting the
nutrition we need. Let's put another one on the plate
for your consideration. That's called ronia berries. Have you heard
of aronia berries spelled aronia erronia berries. They are considered
one of the kings of superfoods because they're rich in
so many nutrients and so many antioxidants that we need
(22:27):
in our diet. They contain the all important phenol to compounds,
which naturally helps the plant, the ronia berry plant resist
disease and premature death. That's how they are able to survive.
But when we take them in, when we ingest them
as humans, we get a lot of bennies from them,
including providing anti inflammatory properties when we take in ronia berries,
(22:50):
and preventing a whole variety of different diseases. So take
a handful or two of ironia berries every day to
reduce your risk of diabetes, heart disease, kidney problems, liver problems,
even the big SA I mean cancer. It's even noteworthy
that to see that certain studies have proven and subsequently
published in scientific peer review journals that taking in ronia
(23:15):
berries can give you health giving compounds and reduce your
risk of the common flu and the common cold. So
go out find organic ronia berries each day. But if
you can't find them, please know that there's a more
convenient way, in a more cost effective way to benefit
(23:36):
through ronia berries, and that is by taking a nutritional
supplement called Erronia Berry Complex Aronia berry Complex by Terry
Naturally Vitamins. It contains something called extract ab forty which
delivers a concentrated and consistent source of the amazing superfruit
and additional the ronia berry complex includes French grape seed

(24:20):
food stores nationwide. You can also go to the website
Terry Naturally Vitamins dot com Terry Naturallyvitamins dot com to
find Aronia berry Complex. All right, it is time now
for the health Outrage of the week.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
At the don't believe it come on each time for
the health Outbradge because it's nothing bullet. It is outrageous.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And so what I'm going to do here is I'm
going to play for you and audiotape shortly here of
the health outrage of the week.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
Now.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
I found this, I don't know where it was.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
I was combing through health information and there was this
this person.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Who was.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Claiming she was a food safety expert and saying that
you know, you should never eat sprouts because there's some
type of bacteria that forms on sprouts.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
And and it's true. I mean, food gets bacteria on it.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
That's why we when we go home, we wash it off,
and you always try to get organic when you can.
But what strikes me, what struck me about this person
was that here is this supposed food safety expert talking
about how bacteria can lay you out and make you sick.
And I'm looking at her in this and I can
(25:55):
see a visual picture of a video of her, and
she's got this gigantic nose ring. I mean it hung
down unbelievably low. She has this nose ring that has
pierced her nose epithelium, allowing bacteria to flow freely from
the air into the wound that she created with this
(26:15):
unnecessary puncture to the inside of her nose. And she's
trying to pitch us on staying away from sprouts because
they have bacteria on them. Listen to this cut go.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
Some people have asked me what foods I do not
eat as a food scientist, and I will list two
of them right now that are off the top of
my head. But I'm just warding you. You're gonna hate
me after this video. Number one, it's row sprouts. Sometimes
I will occasionally eat them, but they are a very,
very very high risk food and you have to know
(26:50):
about bacteria is they are like your besties on spring break.
They want to go somewhere hot and moist, and they
are thirsty.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Yeah, like your nose. Stop that tape. Stop that.
Speaker 3 (27:00):
I can't even stand to listen to her voice after
reading what she wrote.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I can't.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
She's telling you to stop one of the most nutritious
foods you can have, one of the foods that anti
and alternative cancer clinics around the world recommend people eat
more of. You've probably had sprouts before and haven't gotten sick.
And I, yes, there's always gonna be bacteria. There's bacteria
everywhere we live in it, it's swimming everywhere. But the
(27:26):
outrage here on the health outrage was, here's a person
trying to convince me or you to avoid sprouts because
of a bacteria that could be existing in them. And
millions of people eat them every day and don't get sick.
But of course you should always cleanse them and try
to get organic whenever possible. But you're missing out on
(27:46):
so many nutritional benefits by not eating these sprouts.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
But that's not the outrage.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
The outrages as I saw her, and you didn't get
a chance to see this. She's got this gigantic nose
ring hanging in her nasal cavity that somebody punctured upon
her request talk about a pathway to developing a bacterial infection.
It would be please stare in the mirror and look
(28:13):
at the hole that you created unnecessarily in your nose
before you get on TikTok or wherever you were, and
preach to us about bacteria and what foods to stay
away from because of the possibility of a bacterial infection.
She ladies and gentlemen, whoever she is, and I don't
even mention her name, is the health outrage of the week.
(28:35):
I always enjoy finding people like that who hypocritically try
to tell us one thing. And usually it's an elite
actor or actress from Hollywood trying to pitch us on something,
and they're morbidly obese, or they smoke cigarettes, or they
have some other health having they're telling you how to
run your health and health and to try to help
(28:57):
you out with health. It's outrageous, and that's why it
called as this week's health outrage of the week. You've
seen it, you've experienced it for yourself, but now at
least you know it's okay to talk about it, because
we did here on the radio show.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
And do eat sprouts. Find them.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
They're one of the best food you can eat. Yes,
find them in organic form when you can. To make
sure that garbage hasn't been sprayed on them, find a
store like Natural Grocers. That's USDA guaranteed no pesticides on
your produce. And then when you get home, of course,
(29:39):
wash them off thoroughly and then consume them. You'll be
better off if you do. No nose rings please, All right,
We're going to come back and go right to your
phone calls and your questions. Stay with us. You're tuned
into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
So I'm a bush of number Simoncible, the one ever
(30:21):
single means up.
Speaker 8 (30:25):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Today, Eddy Healthy, Welcome, Welcome back to this hour of
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. We'll get back to your
phone calls and questions momentarily, but before we get to that,
we've got a product recall of the week and it
sort of like ties in almost perfectly to what I
just talked about with contamination of foods, which we need
to do a better job of in the United States.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
And here is the latest product recall.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Broccoli that's on the tab here sold at Walmart recalled
in twenty states over listeria concerns. What to know The
recall affected bagged broccoli these are broccoli florets is now underway.
The recall in twenty states the non organic broccoli.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
By the way, and that's part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
Non organic broccoli sold in Walmart's stores in many states
across the US has voluntarily recalled they're broccoli florets due
to the concern it may be contaminated with Listeria bacteria,
according to a notice posted on Food and Administration websites, Specifically,
the recall affected washed and ready to eat those little
(31:45):
twelve ounce bags of market sized broccoli florets from a
company called Braga Braga Fresh bag of Fresh avoid those.
The company explained in a press release. The issue was
discovered when random testing took place at a store in
(32:05):
Texas and one of the samples turned up positive for
Listeria bacteria that causes food borne illness. Listeria infection typically
is mild, causing symptoms like diarrhea and vomiting that can
usually resolve on their own in a few days, but
in some cases lysteria can be more severe. Especially illness
spreads outside of the intestine, so certain groups of people
(32:27):
like pregnant women and older adults or newborns and people
with a weekend immune system are more likely to develop
serious complications. So if you purchased any broccoli from Walmart,
those bags of it, the broccoli florets, take them back
at your money back, and do not eat them. Let's
(32:48):
go back to your telephone calls and questions again at
one eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to two.
That's how you get into the program to ask your
question about health or make your health comment. One eight
hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Next is
Marbara in Warwick, Warwick.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
New York.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
Hi, doctor Bob, This is Barbara from Warwick, New York.
I love your show and I listen to it every week.
I have a problem. I have mild glaucoma in my
left eye. I am also a hypothyroid. I've been taking
a Lacunta proast for several years. My pressure right now
is nineteen in my left eye, and my doctor is
(33:29):
not happy with it. He says, my visual field tests
are fine, but my oct keeps showing that it's not improving,
so he wants to now put me on timolo, which
I'm kind of concerned about. I do take the canc
I dropped, and when I was taking them twice a day,
two drops in each, it has brought my pressures down
to sixteen. But then after six months I went to
(33:53):
twice a day, two drops in eachi and now my
pressure is back up to nineteen. So I really don't
want to take timolol. I would rather do something natural.
I don't know if I can go back to the
original dosing of cancy or what I should do. So
I would appreciate all your health and I'm a great listener.
I love your show. Thank you have a good.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Day, Okay, Barbara, thank you for your calling your kind
comment there. Yes, it proves that your glaucoma can improve
by using an all natural eye drop, which was originally
developed for the reversal of cataracts and the prevention of cataracts.
But interestingly enough, when people with glaucoma use these eye drops,
(34:35):
their pressures go down. We don't know why yet. The
science will eventually figure it out. But if it works
and it's safe and natural, it's non drug.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Why not use it.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Yes, the answer is yes, you need to go back
to the double dose that you were on of the
can see Eye Drops by Wise Choice Medicine that will
reduce your glaucoma pressure and get you back to where
you need to be, and you may need to be
doing that for life in order to reduce your risk

Speaker 2 (37:21):
All right?
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Doctor Bob marching back with you. Thank you for tuning
into the program today. We're just in our final segment
of the show. I hope you've enjoyed it today, and
if you have, refer other people to the show so
they can as well. It's time now, ladies and gentlemen,
for this week's installment of the health Mystery of the Week.
Groundmaking research suggests organ transplant patients are inheriting donors memories
(37:47):
and personalities. People receiving organ transplants have reported strange changes
in their emotions, tastes, and memories. The phenomena is most
common in heart recipients, but those who have received kidneys, lungs,
and even faces transplants we're talking about here now have
also noticed changes to their food preferences, music choices, and
(38:12):
even sexual orientation. Mysteriously enough, some patients their new hobbies
and preferences mirror those of their donors. The donors that
have passed that they were receiving their organs from, which
has led experts to question if recipients are also receiving
(38:35):
their donors' memories. In a review published earlier this year,
researchers pointed to a case study of a nine year
old boy receiving a heart transplant from a three year
old girl who drowned in a family pool. Though the
boy had no idea who how the donor died, his
mother reported that he became deathly afraid of water.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Wow, this is where health mysteries come from. Is this
kind of stuff?
Speaker 3 (39:03):
That's the health mystery of the week. Let's see if
we can squeeze another phone calling before the end of
the hour, though. Next up is Frances calling in from
the beautiful state of Hawaii.
Speaker 8 (39:14):
From Hawaii, my health question is I've been dealing with
a soollen foot since July. I was wondering if you
have anything that I could do. I've tried everything else.
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I'm not sure what everything else means, Francis, thank you
for calling from Paradise, Hawaii, KHVH there in Honolulu. Well,
a swollen foot can be anything. I ask you the question,
have you visited a podiatrist? If you haven't, you should.
Now your foot swelling could be a biomechanical problem, which
means a misaligned bone in your foot or ankle. Please
(39:52):
visit a chiropractic physician for that. If you haven't, did
someone evaluate you medically for liver problem, kidney problems or
gout or some circulatory problem. Is there some kind of
infection that's going on topically in the foot. If you
want to, Francis, try a natural anti inflammatory to try
(40:14):
to get that down, along with elevation and maybe compression.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
You may do so.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
There's one on the market called curemed by Terry Naturally Vitamins,
and there's another one called Vascular Defense by Sunnutrition over
at sunnutrition dot com. I try those but find out,
Do not give up. Do continue to search for the
reason for that, because it could get worse. That is
my recommendation to you, and again I appreciate.
Speaker 2 (40:38):
Your phone call. Good health to you, Francis.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
All right, ladies and gentlemen, making a healthy day and
a healthy week until we're right back here next week.
You've been tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Be well,
