eight twenty two. It's the Doctor Bob Martin myself.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Yes it is, And you've entered a healing zone. This
is a place where special like minded people gather each
and every week to discuss important issues and ask important
questions related to our most precious possession. Of course, that's
related to good health. Right. Welcome or welcome everyone, Thank
(01:25):
you for tuning into the program. We're going to get
back to your telephone calls and questions very shortly in
this hour plus this hour, I'm going to provide for
you this week's installments of the Health Alternative of the Week,
Health Outrage of the Week. We've got a product recall
to tell you about as well, and then we'll finish
(01:46):
the hour with the health Mystery of the Week. Now
you'll notice over on my website we have a health
poll question this week asking you this question, do you
think or believe that CT scans are overused? Yes or no.
(02:06):
You may have had a CT scan or a CAT scan,
as they're often referred to. The CT stands for computed tomography,
and they call it CT scan for short. Now, in
the first hour of the program, I talked about how
millions of Americans are having these CT scans and researchers
(02:31):
are now noticing an explosion in tumors as a result
of having too much ionizing radiation. Because the CT scan
is just a more sophisticated form of X ray that
gives a more detailed look inside the human body. But unfortunately,
when you get a CT scan and a lot of
(02:53):
doctors just like to say, oh, eh, you need a scan,
as though it's not dangerous. Now. CT scan are very
important diagnostic tools and they can find things that can
help save a person's life. But they're being abused and
overused because of a whole line a lot of reasons. Profitability.
Oh yeah, doctors make big bucks off of CT scans,
(03:15):
and so do the facilities who provide them, And a
lot of doctors also run these CT scans for a
cover your you know what, cya. But when you take
a CT scan of the abdominal area, for example, let's
say you've got some bowel problems or stomach problems and
the doctor can't figure out what's wrong with you. They'll say, oh,
(03:37):
go to the hospital or go down to the radiology
department over here, and we're going to do a scan
of your abdomen. You go, yeah, do a scan. No
big deal, right, No, it is a big deal. It's
the equivalent of having over one hundred chest X rays
in your body, ionizing cancer, causing potentially X ray into
(04:00):
your body. Over one hundred, it'd be the equivalent of
having one hundred chess X rays. Who would stand there
and have a hundred chess X rays. Not many people
if they knew it. But is it ever disclosed to
the patient?
Speaker 3 (04:11):
No?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
But anyway, if you want to hear that segment that
I did first hour of the program about CT scans,
you can get into the podcast library on my website.
It'll be posted up there soon over at doctor Bob
dot com spelling out the word doctor d Octo r
Bob dot com. You can also hear it in the
(04:33):
podcast library over at Radioamerica dot com. And we have
a health pole question asking you to give your opinion
of it. Do you think that these CT scans are overused?
Yes or no? Please vote on my website at doctor
Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor doctor Bob
(04:54):
dot com, and we'll have the results at a later date.
All right, we're gonna be in this hour before we
go back to your telephone calls and questions. We're gonna
begin with the topic of a talking about foods that
contain dangerous ingredient that can cause sudden fainting. Hundreds of
common foods here in the US contain an additive linked
(05:16):
to a mysterious illness in children. Tortillas, spices, salad, dressing, gum, yes,
chewing gum, protein bars, and other items contain something called glycrol. Glyceryl,
a naturally occurring alcohol and sugar substitute added to foods
(05:40):
to help them stay soft, moist, or keep them from
getting too hot or cold. Once ingested this glycrol, it
absorbs water and sugar from the bloodstream before the liver
and kidneys can break them down. Adults can generally break
(06:02):
down glycerol without issues at all. The additive can cause
severe effects in children, and most parents do not know this.
In fact, most doctors don't even know this. Health experts
warned this week that children consuming glyceryl suffer a dangerous
(06:22):
reaction called glycerl intoxification syndrome. Writing in the Medical Journal,
doctors warned nearly all of the twenty one children they
looked at in their study were sickened within an hour
of drinking a slushy. You know those icy slushies. You've
(06:47):
probably had one. Got a freezer burn in the back, right.
They develop as a result of drinking these slushies that
had the glyceryl in it, developing low blood sugar or hypoglycemia,
low potassium, causing them to become drowsy and faint or
pass out, and glycerol you should read the label if
(07:07):
you have children is in many of the products that
are in your grocery carts that you're bringing in the
house unbeknownst to you, and you're allowing your children to
chew gum that has glyceryl in it, or eat protein
bars or eats, or take salad dressing on their salad,
or spices or tortillas that have glycerl in them. So
(07:31):
start reading the label and make sure your children aren't
getting anything with glycerl in it now. The study authors
urged health authorities to update their warnings about children consuming glycerol,
and glycerol is spelled gly cerol. Though the experts only
(07:52):
looked at children in the UK, Glycrol has been found
in many popular products here in America, American staples, staple
products that a lot of people eat. Now they're smaller
bodies of these children are unable to process glycerol in
the same way adults do quickly enough, causing it to
(08:16):
build up in their bodies over time, creating low blood sugar,
low potassium, and drowsiness in the potential to faint and
hit their heads. Now In mild cases, this loss of
water and sugar can lead to signs of dehydration, like
they may be experiencing before they faint or before they
(08:38):
pass out. They may be saying, oh, mommy, daddy, I
got a headache, my head hurts, or they're nauseated, they
just don't want to eat, or they feel sick to
the stomach. Could be related to the glyceryl they're taking
in that they're not breaking down the actually it's actually
causing dehydration, but in rare cases it can cause hypoglycemia,
a low blood sugar condition usually associated with diabetes, which
(09:01):
leads to trembling, dizziness, seizures, and, in worst case scenarios,
even a coma. The reaction can also send kids' bodies
into shock, where the circulatory system that pumps oxygen rich
blood around the body fails to prevent vital organs from functioning.
(09:24):
This is pretty scary stuff when you think about it,
and that substance. I've seen glycerol in so many items now.
Signs of shock include having pale, cold, clammy skin, as
well as sweating, rapid or shallow breathing, weakness or dizziness, nausea,
and possible vomiting, extreme thirst, and even yawning or sighing.
(09:49):
Glycerl we're talking about glycrol here, very common in the
food supply. You don't want to give it to children,
that's for sure. Glycrol may also be labeled as glycerin,
glycerin one two three, propa tranol. Along with slushies, many
flour and corn tortilla items may contain glycerol to sweeten
(10:13):
to help keep them fresh. Glycerl also helps to retain
moisture within the tortillas, preventing it from drying out and
becoming hard or brittle. In the US, Old al Paso
and La Torrea Factory are two brands that use glycrool.
According to the Ingredient Database True food and glycerol is
(10:37):
also part of what makes chewing gum chewy, So if
you're allowing your children to have regular gum, make sure
it's not glycerol. It doesn't have glycerol in it. Read
the labels. Just wanted you to know. All right, When
we come back from this break, we're gonna get back
to work with your telephone calls on the subject of health.

to your telephone calls on the topic of health, health
questions and comments, it is time now, ladies and gentlemen,
for this week's health alternative of the week. The Health
(13:10):
alternative of the Week. I love ethnic food. I gravitate
toward ethnic food. I do not gravitate towards the sad
food otherwise known as the standard American diet, which is
full of nothing but fat and sugar and things my
(13:32):
body doesn't need or want. I love Indian food, Indian
food because I can always get lentils, one of my
favorite foods to eat. I want you to know about
a health alternative of the week called Maya kaimoals everyday
Indian doll and you can find it at Natural grocery store.
(13:52):
The best time to eat lentils is anytime. I could
eat lentils for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. That's how I
love lentils. The light ones are the dark ones, it
doesn't matter. They're all good for me. With more than
seventy million Americans already diagnosed with dementia, and that number
growing all the time. This week's health alternative of the Week,
(14:16):
Maya Kymals every Day Lentil Doll is a life saver
for your brain. This vegetarian company brand has an array
of products such as simmer sauces, non chips, chick pea chips,
spicy ketchup, and my favorite Maya Kimoles. Everyday Indian Doll.
(14:42):
One bite and you'll know it's the real doll, the
real thing, the real Indian food. This is an ancient
cuisine with spices that are both flavorful and functional. The
recipes are delicious and made for people who live to eat,
not eat to live. My family has already tried four
(15:03):
different packets of this health alternative of the week jotted
down every Day Indian Doll Doll spelled dl every Day
Indian Doll. You're gonna love it. You've got one. You've
got the red lentils with spinach and coconut. Number two,
you've got the black lentils with tomato and cooman. Three,
(15:24):
you've got the lentils with green garbanzos, corn and coriander.
And four. These are all choices, by the way, for
the Maya Chimals everyday Indian doll and the fourth choice
is lentils with kidney beans, carrots and turmuran or turmerand
they all contain delicious warming curry, spices and lentils. And
(15:48):
better yet, it's ready and on the table in just
thirty minutes, so it's really convenient. I had it already
picked out my favorite from the ingredients, red lentil, butternut, squash,
and coconut. You're gonna love this and you'll thank me
for it so good, and your family's gonna love it too.
(16:09):
By the way, you may buy them in packets instead
of boxes, or in tin cans organically grown and processed
non GMO. The thing about Indian food is that it's
good for our bodies and our planet because it's plant based.
Indians figured out the benefits of plant based diet long
(16:33):
ago when they started making dull, which comes from lentils
and countless other vegetarian dishes. Lentils are nutritious and are
packed with essential nutrients that provide numerous health benefits to
your heart, your blood sugar, your brain, weight management, your
(16:53):
digestive systems. So eat more lentils. This week's health alternative
of the week is Maya m a Ya kimoles k
I m a l apostrophe s every day Indian dull.
You can find it at natural grocer stores, and if
(17:13):
you don't have a natural grocery store near you, go
to their website naturalgrocers dot com and look for this
week's health alternative of the week, Maya kimels every day
Indian doll.
Speaker 4 (17:28):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I'm feeling hungry already just thinking about it, but I
got to get back to work with your telephone calls
and your questions. So here we go at one eight
hundred six zero six eight eight two to two. That's
the number to get in to ask your health question
or make your health comment. One eight hundred six to
zero six eighty eight twenty two. Next up is Larry
(17:48):
calling in from Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Larry, fort Smith, Arkansas. I'm having trouble with my blood pressure.
They give make several different medicines, but I can't take
them because of the side efface. And I was going
to know if there's anything natural remedies to ah oh
(18:16):
my blood pressure. And also I'm having urinary track problems.
I'm having trouble control them. Urine, and I wonder what
I want stamps I could do to alleviate that. Okay,
thank you very much, and I'll be listening to you.
I always do. You give a good advice. I appreciate
(18:39):
it very much.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Okay, Larry, thank you for your call, phone calling, your
kind comment there. First of all, Larry, I hope that
you're getting good exercise every day, because walking exercise like
maybe one to three miles if you're not in shape,
start off slow and then move it up to a
brisk squalk where you're sweating a little bit and you're
puffing a little bit of your breath. That can help
(19:06):
your blood pressure and the prostate issue that you're having
with the urination. So walking one to three mile really important.
If you're under any kind of stress, work on that
because we know that stress is a factor with blood
pressure issues. Try to take a diet that is the
(19:26):
opposite of the standard American diet full of inflammatory foods, sugar,
greasy foods, not good. Move over to the Mediterranean diet.
Eat the Mediterranean diet as closely as you can, and
that in and of itself, along with the exercise, lowering
your stress will likely help reduce your blood pressure. Meanwhile,
(19:49):
since they can't find drugs that your body agrees with,
because your body realizes it's being poisoned, poisoning your kidney.
Mostly when you're dealing with blood pressure issue, there are
supplements in the marketplace that you can get larry to
help lower blood pressure without any adverse side effects. I
(20:09):
would try Kiolic blood pressure formula one oh nine and
this should be available in most health food stores in
your area. Kyolic KYO l I C Kiolic blood pressure
formula number one oh nine. That's what you're looking for
in the health food store, along with the supplement blood
(20:30):
Pressure Health. That's the name of it. Blood Pressure Health
and Vectomega. Both of those are by Terry Naturally Vitamins.
Blood Pressure Health and Vectomega, which is an omega oil
by Terry Naturally Vitamins. So Coyolic blood Pressure formula one
o nine blood Pressure Health and vect Omega by Terry
(20:53):
Natural Vitamins. You're good to go along with your the
other recommendations. I made good health to you. Stay tuned.
I'm doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
Menybody's got fame mistakes, but everybody's got a choice to
make everybody needs to leave the faith when a taking yours.
Speaker 7 (21:13):
Money, you infound.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
And I welcome you back to the Doctor Bob Martin Show,
and thank you for tuning into the program today and
telling others to do the very same thing. Now coming
up very shortly here, we'll have the health outrage of
the week, and then we'll get back to your telephone
calls and questions. But before we do that, let's talk
about how important it is to keep your oral health
(21:49):
in good working order and in Christine's shape. I'm talking
about your teeth, your gums, the way you take care
of your oral health. And some people just do it
just to get it out of the way and call
it good enough. They're not flossing, they're not swishing, they're
not using the correct toothpaste, they're not using the correct mouthwash,
(22:15):
and they're using some of the big box stuff that's
got all kinds of chemical in it, or they're using
Listerine or Crest or Colgate, and some of these mouthwashes
just destroy the oral microbiome and destroy your ability to
make nitric oxide. It's a total disaster. My suggestion as
(22:36):
you get on the program that Doctor Bob Martin and
his family using all my colleagues the Spry Dental Defense system,
especially if you want to avoid tooth decay, gingoviteis periodontal disease,
bad breath and everything else. Spry, Spry tooth based mouth rents,
and even gum and mints. I just get sweaty palms
(22:59):
and probably elevated blood pressure thinking about going to a
dental provider. It doesn't even matter, just going in for
maintenance deep cleaning once in a while, because as a
child I got traumatized as a young lad in a
dental chair and I still have that fear in my psyche.
How about you? So I don't know I ever want
(23:21):
to go there, and that's why I use the Spry
Dental Defense System. Now. Spry is delicious to use. It
comes in peppermint, cinnamon, and spearmen. The secret sauce in
the Spray Dental Defense system is the xylotol. Xylotol is
used by millions of people. It's a plant based ingredient
in spry, tooth based mouth threns, gum and mints, and
(23:42):
it will not only help you with fresh, clean, squeaky
clean teeth and gums, but it will also provide anti cavity,
anti plaque, anti bad news in the dental hygienas chair
or the dental chair the next time you're in there.
So the Spray Dental Defense System is available at CBS
(24:03):
and Write Aid pharmacies. You can get Spry toothpaste mouth
rents at Target, Vitamin Chops, Sprouts and natural grocers. And
if you want more information on this amazing dental product
that you should incorporate like we have in our family,
go to their website at Clear that's x L e
(24:26):
a r dot com. The X in Clear stands for Xylotol,
Clear dot Com for the Spry Dental Defense System. Clear
Corporation is the same. These are the same people who
make the Clear nasal sprays that I use on a
regular basis, as in the Clear Rescue Nasal Spray. Fantastic stuff.
(24:48):
All right, let's get to this week's installment of the
health Outrage of the week.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
She's k then.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Come on each time for the Hill outbreage because it's
not the bullets, it is outrageous. Doctor Dave Weldon a
medical physician, former member of Congress Physician College, professor, very
bright individual. He had his nomination to run the CDC,
(25:23):
the senaster disease and quasi prevention tanked recently, which is
a tragedy in and of itself, simply because of his
view of being a vaccine skeptic. Boy, if we only
had more vaccine skeptics when the disaster COVID hit COVID
(25:45):
nineteen and they put the mRNA into motion with all
the promises and all the lies and the fraud behind that,
there'd be a lot less people dead and a lot
less people sick and suffering. Today. You know, it's amazing
how great people, very smart people, very dedicated medical professions,
(26:07):
professionals who question their own conventional orthodoxy simply because they
notice they see they experience adverse reactions in their own patients,
and suddenly they're saying, wait a minute. Back in the
nineteen fifties, we had like maybe four vaccines given to
(26:29):
children or so, and now we have eighty seven, loading
these children up with vaccines and seeing the level of
autism go from one in one hundred to now one
in like thirty, there's something wrong. And great doctors like
doctor Dave Weldon, and great people like Bobby Kennedy Junior,
(26:53):
who's running the Health and Human Services division of our
government are smart enough in auncientious enough to say, look,
we're not against vaccines, we're just against unsafe vaccines. And
in response to his history of questioning the safety of
(27:14):
loading these children up and him seeing the arise in
autism and all kinds of other diseases, allergies and children
and psoriasis and other problems, he questions it, and they
tank his nomination to run the CDC and clean up
all the rift and the fraud that goes on in
(27:35):
the CDC, which is outrageous to me. It's outrageous that
two Republican lawmakers sort of showed their cards early and said, oh, no,
we can't vote for that guy to run the CDC.
He's an anti vaxxer. He's not. He's a vaccine skeptic.
(27:57):
And these politicians who go along with big pharma and
the games they play and the frauds that they foister
upon the public is outrageous. And I'm sure if you
looked into these two female Republican politicians, you'd see that
(28:18):
the big pharma companies have donated to their re election coffers.
And that's the reason why they put the brakes on
Doctor Dave Weldon, medical physician, former member of Congress, physician
college professor, just an overall very dedicated, smart man. He
(28:39):
should have been running the CDC. He's not because these
politicians are in the pocket of big Pharma, and it's
tragic that this happens. And that's why it qualified as
the health outrage of the week. All right, now, very shortly,
we're going to go back to your telephone calls and
questions on the topic of health, and you'll hear me
(29:02):
answer phone calls on the Doctor Bob Martin Show caller
hotline phone number. It's so simple to access this number,
and you can do it in the safety and the
privacy of your home or business anytime of the night
or day. You'll hear me answer the phone, and I'll
ask you to state your first name, only the city
(29:22):
in state you're calling from, and then your health related question.
And it doesn't matter what health related question it is.
I've heard it all and I'll do my best to
help you out. And if I can't think of the answer,
I'll do some research on it and I will have
that call on the air and I will answer it.
Here's the number. Jot it down if you've got sick
friends or family members or loved ones pass this number
(29:45):
to them. They can call into the number as well
one eight hundred and six zero six eight eight two
two eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two
to ask your health related question or comment on the
Doctor Bob Martin Show. Call her hotline number.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
So sorry, I'm a bussom a number Summuncible, the one
ever single day minds up.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Today?
Speaker 2 (30:35):
All right, welcome or welcome back to this hour at
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. If you like what you're
hearing here, do you think others could benefit by tuning
into the program? By all means, we invite you to
refer your family members, your friends, your co workers, your
neighbors to the show. And the best way to do
that is to jot down the call letters of the
(30:56):
radio station you're currently listening to. If it's an AM
or FM station, note that and the frequency on the
dial and the time of the day, and just pass
out on to as many people as you can. They'll
thank you for big time. Now we'll get back to
more of your telephone calls on the topic of health
or health related comments shortly. Here, but I wanted to
(31:18):
provide to you this week's product recall of the week.
Here we go. Did you hear about the coffee creamer
that's recalled more than seventy five thousand bottles pulled from
shelves across the United States. The FDA has set the
second highest risk level for a recall of two flavors
(31:41):
of International Delight coffee Creamer. The FDA set the recall
of the International Delight Coffee Creamer at the second highest level.
Denon Dnony. Denon initially recalled over seventy five thousand bottles
of two two flavors of International Delight coffee creamer after
(32:03):
discovering the product. The products were spoiled. The affected creamers
were pulled off the store shelves in thirty one different
states this week. The FDA gave the recall a Class
two level, meaning the drinking of these coffee creamers may
cause temporary or medically reversible adverse consequences or the possibility
(32:28):
of serious health consequences. They say is remote. And so
the coffee creamers that are recalled two flavors International Delight
Coffee Creamers Hazelnet HAZELNT and Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon roll, and
I'm talking about thirty one states. I'm not going to
(32:51):
list all the states, but if you're using coffee creamers,
be very careful. Take it back to where you bought
it if that sounds like the one you have, or
look it up and get your money back. That's the
health or rather the product recall of the week. All right,
let's get back to work on the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Caller hotline phone number at eight hundred six to zero
(33:14):
six eight eight two two one eight hundred six to
zero six eighty eight twenty two. And next up, we
say hello to Pam calling in from Niagara Falls, New York. Hi.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
This is Pam from Niagara Falls, New York, and I
just paid a question. Maybe you could direct me somewhere.
My physician told me that taking lipitour decreases your chances
of having a stroke if you have diabets diabetes type two.
(33:50):
My cholesterol is one forty six and my high cholester
high density cholesterol is fine above normal, and my LITW
density cholesterol is also fine. So I really hate to
keep taking lipatour if it's going to do me damage.
(34:11):
She says, well, even if your cholesterol is fine, it
still will help prevent a stroke. Can you talk about
this please? Thank you?
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Okay, Pam, thank you for your phone call there from
Niagara Falls, New York. You might want to get a
second opinion by another doctor. Did your doctor inform you
that taking a statin drug, a cholesterol learning drug, can
actually cause or make diabetes worse. It can, that's one
of the side effects of statin drugs. It can induce
type two diabetes. Yeah, I would suggest you get a
(34:45):
second opinion, but maybe even a new doctor, because it
sounds like you're a little frustrated. Perhaps the doctor trained
in functional medicine would be a good idea. Meanwhile, the
key to keeping your reduction of stroke, type two diabetes
high cholesterol is, of course, moving about more often. A
little more exercise is a key to blood sugar management,
(35:09):
blood pressure control, losing weight, and trying to avoid, by
the way, the sad diet, the standard American diet. That's
what you really need to do. Stay away from the
standard American diet full of sugar and highly processed foods
and not good fats. Switch over to the Mediterranean style diet.
I'm a big fan of that. That's how I consume
my diet Mediterranean diet. There's also some supplements that could
(35:34):
help you reduce your risks across the board. Vago Omega oil,
I'm sorry, Vecto Omega oil, Vectomega oil. It's a type
of Omega three oil by Terry Naturally Vitamins. They also
make one for blood sugar called soup Control Controlled D
(35:57):
by Terry Naturally Vitamins. Great for blood sugar balance, and
you also have coyolic blood sugar balance. You have choices.
They all have positive effects on blood sugar. Couple that
with good diet, good exercise habits, eating well, and then
you know, taking nutritional supplements to give you or fill
(36:21):
in the gaps where you otherwise can't get the omega
fish because maybe you're not willing to eat omegafish three
times a week. But taking the Vectomega supplement along with
the soouk Control D by Terry Naturally vitamins. Couple that
(36:41):
with coyolic blood sugar balance, which these all can be
purchased at finer health food stores. You're going to get
the outcome that you want, reduce disease risk and feeling better.
All right, Pam, thanks again for your phone call I'm
doctor Bob Martin.
Speaker 8 (37:06):
From or Welcome and welcome back to the final segment
of the Doctor Bob Martin Show this week, and we
so appreciate you tuning into the program.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Also, I want to remind you over on my website
we have a health poll question. We'd love to get
your opinion of it now. I did a big segment
on the first hour of the show today on how
a medical test, the CT scans, given to millions of Americans,
may be causing an explosion in tumors because they're being overutilized.
(37:50):
You might want to go into the podcast library at
doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor doctor
Bob dot com and listen to our number one first
segment where I talked about this. But I'd love to
get your opinion. Do you think that CT scans are
over used? Yes? Or no? Are these scans that every
(38:11):
doctor tends to want to use and they're an important
diagnostic tool, but they're being overused. Do you think that's
the case? Yes or no? Vote at doctor Bob dot
com on that. All right, it's time now for the
health mystery of the week. Why women want to see
more of their friends at a certain time of the month,
women want to see their friends and family more in
(38:32):
the second half of their monthly cycle. A study suggests,
as mysterious as that sounds, connecting with our nearest and
dearest friends and friends and family members becomes more important
two weeks after ovulation, when an egg is released, researchers
are finding. They said, women evolve to affiliate with those
(38:54):
close to them during this phase to ensure maximum protection
if they become pregnant. The desire to spend time with
friends and family is highest in the loutel phase compared
with the other times of the menstrual cycle, according to
the lead researcher, Anastasia Makhatova from the University of Arkansas,
(39:19):
throughout most of human evolution history, women spent a large
portion of their lives in states of increased vulnerability to
threats due to pregnancy and infant care. That's what was
written in the research paper. The recurrent challenges posed by
pregnancy may have shaped the development of self protective strategies
(39:41):
that help women combat those threats and increase risk of
illness in the early months due to the immune changes
necessary for fetal development and later and an inability to
move fast if in danger would have met they needed
trusted people around them to care for them in order
(40:05):
to survive. Giving birth without assistance would have been much
more risky. So here you have an interesting observation by
researchers as to why women want to see more of
their friends at a certain time of the month or
(40:26):
their family members at a certain time of the month,
and how that relates to safety and their overall feeling
of wellness. Mysterious says it is That's why it qualified
as the health mystery of the week. We come to
the end of the show, make it a healthy week.
(40:47):
I'm doctor Bob Martin. Be well.
