Marchin Show. We've got a lot to talk about this hour.

installment of the Health Alternative of the Week, the Health
Outrage of the Week. We've got a product recall to
tell you about, and a top ten list that speaks

So stick around and you will find out. We've got
with us our executive producer and co host of the show,
(02:12):
doctor Adam Brockman, is with us. Good day to you,
Doctor Brockman.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Hi, Doctor Bob, good day to you.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Thank you for being here. I want to start off
this hour before we go back to our telephone calls
that are coming in asking health related questions or making
health comments on the Doctor Bob Martin Show caller hotline
number at eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
two eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two
(02:40):
and the website where health questions also are available for
our listeners. Over at doctor Bob dot com spelling out
the word doctor doctor bob dot com where you can
you can also write a health question to us that'll
get to us and then we'll talk about it on
the air. But before we get back to both of those,
Doctor Brockman, I wanted to discuss this fascinating article that
(03:04):
you brought to my attention about how people who are
subscribers to Netflix, which is amazingly popular these days, and Hulu,
their usage may trigger some major health problems. Now that
stop me in my tracks because my daughter is a
subscriber to Netflix, and I thought, well, who I need
(03:27):
to tell her about this? If she is if it
could be impacting her health, what do you have for us,
Doctor Brockman.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Regarding this, Doctor Bob, let's dive into this topic that
many of us can relate to. It's the impact of
binge watching our favorite shows in the impact that it
has on our health. Yes, these thrilling cliffhanters and dramatic
plot twists, they may be more than just entertaining. They
might be affecting our well being. So recent studies have
(03:54):
shown that watching intense or stressful shows can trigger our
bodies fight or flight report response. This means that as
you're glued to the screen, your heart rate spikes, your
cortisol levels rise, in stress hormones flood your system. It's
like your body is preparing for a showdown, even though
you're just watching a show. This Doctor Gallagher explains that
(04:17):
while turning off the TV can help bring those hormone
levels back to normal, the lingering effects of these that
dramatic content can make our minds think that we're in
a state of stress. This constant activation of these stress
response can lead to a host of health issues, including anxiety, depression,
muscle tension, weight gain, and even problems with memory and focus. Now,
(04:43):
let's talk about a broader impact of excessive television viewing
on the mental health as well. While some shows can
provide relaxation entertainment, over consumption of these shows can lead
to sedentary behavior, reduce physical activity, in social isolation, all
of which can negatively affect our mental health. Plus exposure
(05:04):
to this distressing or violent contact, it ramps up our
anxiety levels. Doctor Bob, So when I'm thinking about this,
I'm thinking about what kind of ways can we change this?
And I think the main one is we all know
we need to limit our screen time. But other ways
(05:25):
we can attack this physical activity, adequate sleep, social connections.
Remember I just said about the social isolation. With this,
make time to connect with friends and family, whether that's
in person or virtually. How about this, spend time in
nature the power of the great outdoors. Spending time in
nature can have this a calming effect and significantly improve
(05:48):
our moods. So take a break from the screen and
enjoy a walk in the park. Balancing your diet diets
that are rich in fruits, vegetables in Omega three fatty acids.
These food support brain health and can enhance your mood.
Think of as feeding your brain for the nutrients that
it craves, even if you are watching these shows, and
(06:09):
engage in hobbies that you find interest in active type
of activities.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Oh wow, that's interesting, doctor Bridman. Are there any numbers?
I don't how many people. Is there like a number
of prescribers that we know of? For Netflix? I know
it's amazingly popular these days to subscribe to Netflix. You
hear about it all the time and Hulu. You know,
(06:39):
is this something that you use or you or your
family is utilizing. As I mentioned, my daughter is a
subscriber to Netflix, and I brought she's a nurse. I
brought this to her attention, and she was also amazed
by the information.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Oh yeah, our family uses it.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
I'm not necessarily a binge watcher myself, but but we
definitely have a couple of the kids that they could
they could sit.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
There for hours and watch something. You know, we do.
We do keep an active lifestyle.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
So it's like, hey, after a little bit, go outside
to do something that is is better than sitting in
front of that screen.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
As far as numbers go, I don't. I don't have
a number in front of me, but I would.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
I would venture to say it's probably it's got to
be fifty percent of Americans. Fifty percent of adult Americans
probably subscribe to one of these services, maybe multiple of
these services.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Wow, that seems like a big number. So what you're
really saying is this is really dose dependent. It's just
like anything else. It's the more you sit there and
the more you binge and watch the boob tube as
we call it, because that's where it's coming across, the
worse off our state is because we're seeing these these
(07:55):
images and those images bouncing into our psyche and filling
us full of these thoughts of doom and gloom and
all the other stuff that these producers of these movies
and documentaries do, most of which is, you know, they're
trying to keep us on the edge of our chair
(08:15):
all the time, thrilling stuff to keep our brain rolling
so that we don't yawn, fall asleep or leave the
boob tube area. And you're saying that, I guess is
that all that stimuli, when it becomes excessive, it sort
of takes over and then suddenly we start living that
stress because of those levels of stress hormones that are
(08:38):
evoked in response to that visual stimuli. Do do I
have that correct?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Or?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Am I way out of balance on this, Doctor Brockmann.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
You're right on You're right on target with that, doctor Bob.
Remember it's all about balance. While it's okay to indulge
in your favor favorite shows, being mindful of how they
affect your health is key. You just mentioned there. By
incorporating the strategies that I mentioned into your normal routine,
you can help support your mental health and enjoy your
(09:08):
downtime without the negative side effects.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Okay, So there you have it, ladies and I'm on
the key. The messaging here is that if you have
a subscription to Netflix or Hulu or anything else that
you enjoy, or a channel on the television that you like,
and you go to that, it's all about how long,
(09:34):
how much, and then what you do afterwards to sort
of rebuke it if it is psychologically draining or has
some high level anxiety content producing action to it. That's
really what it's about, knowing and always keeping in mind
that what you're doing there is you're just entertaining yourself.
(09:57):
It's entertainment. What I think happens is people start living
and stressing over what they're seeing, not realizing it's an
extension of what they watched and it's not real. It's fake.
It's make believe. And that's why it's so important to
if you're going to do it, to take smaller doses
of it, and then afterwards find healthy measures by which
(10:22):
to reduce the effects of it, as doctor Brockman laid out, exercise,
and then you know, just telling yourself, oh, that's not real,
and telling your children if they're in the room, that's
not real. This is all fake. This is acting, it's pretending,
and you need to just utilize it in the manner
in which it's designed to. All right, thanks for that,
(10:44):
Doctor Brockman. Stay tuned, ladies and gentlemen. When we come back,
we're going to have a health alternative of the week
for you here on the Doctor Bob Martin Show.

Speaker 4 (13:25):

Bena offers a delicious option that's perfect for satisfying your

toss them in the salads, or use them as a
crunchy topping on soups. Being a roasted chickpeas that is
your health alternative of the week.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Now, I want you for clarification. I'm already getting hungry here,
doctor Brockoli, with your description, can you spell bena so
that people know what they're looking for? Are chickpeas the
same as garbonzo beans?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Bena is spelled b i e na, and both the
chickpeas and garbanza beans they are great, healthy, healthy alternatives.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
To things like chips.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
I think you can even find the beans as a
roast adoption as well.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I love them. I eat a lot of it, and
they're packful, Ladies and gentlemen, packed full with not only nutrients,
but fiber and when you have food that is satiating you.
That's not these fake ultra processed foods and are nothing
more than fluff and air and sugar and fat and
salt which are designed to addict you. So you come
(16:03):
back to the food over and over and the food
manufacturer wins, but your body loses because you're not getting
nutrients you need, just getting the calories that you're gaining
weight with, you lose. So these health alternatives that we
bring to you each and every week help to offset
what you're currently doing as an alternative that's healthier to
(16:23):
help protect your health. Thank you for that health alternative
of the week for our listeners, Doctor Brockman. All right,

(21:08):
When are you taking yours?
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Mone?
Speaker 6 (21:12):
Are you in fun?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Hi? Welcome you back. We're welcome you for the first
time to this hour of the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Thank you for tuning into the program today. Now coming
up very shortly here, we're gonna have for you the
health outrage of the week, and then return promptly to
your phone calls that you keep calling in to the show.
About many people all over the United States and even
(21:42):
outside the United States, they access the Doctor Bob Martin
Show Caller hotline phone number to ask a question about
their personal health or to make a health related comment.
That number eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
to two eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two.
(22:02):
Coming out very shortly here will be the health outrage
of the week. Stay tuned for that. But first I
want to remind you how important it is to keep
consistent with and use the very best thing in your
dental care that you possibly can. You know, sometimes we
take brushing our teeth and flossing and all of that
(22:24):
for granted and just go to the store and we
just throw into the cart, you know, the one that
we're familiar with in terms of toothpaste. It might be Crest,
it might be Faoro brand, it might be Coldgate or
one of those other brands that have been around forever.
But when you check out the label on these toothpastes,
these commercial toothpastes, or the mouthwash is, whether it be
(22:47):
listerine or whatever it is, you start reading all these
chemicals that are hard to pronounce, that are usually six
or seven syllables long, and you think to yourself, Oh, oh,
it's got something good in it. I guess I can't
pronounce it. Don't know what it is. No, No, don't
think that. Think that that's a chemical you don't need
or want in your body. It's not of nature, it's
not of man. It's synthetic. It's probably petrochemical. You don't
(23:10):
want it. Switch over to what I did years and
years ago, as well as my entire family and my
colleagues who understand the research that's coming out about how
important it is to keep your dental health in good check,
because if you have any low grade simmering inflammatory process
or low grade infection in your mouth, whether it be
related to tooth deca or ginger vitis, or peridonal disease,
(23:34):
or just bad breath or a coated tongue, all of
that means that there's trouble in your oral cavity. Switch
over to what I did called the Spry Spry Dental
Defense system. It includes Spry toothpaste, Spry mouth rints. You
can even get gum and mints that are Spry as well.
(23:57):
And the reason for this is that the Sprie dental
defense system has some secret sauce in it, which really
is not a secret anymore because millions of people are
now using the Sprie dental defense system. It comes in
delicious flavors like peppermint and cinnamon and spearmint. The secret
sauce is xylotol. Xylatol is used by millions of people
(24:19):
and it's a plant based ingredient in the Spry toothpaste,
in the mouthwash and the mints of the gum. And
what it does is it tricks the bad bacteria which
drills holes in your teeth, destroys your gums, and creates
all that distress in your oral cavity your mouth and
then leads you to problems which you need to have
(24:41):
cleared up by the dentist or the hygienist or somebody else.
So switch over to the Spride dental defense system. Say
goodbye to cavity's plaque and bad news that you'll get
the next time you're in the dental chair that you
shouldn't get if you were using the Sprie dentdeal Defense system.
Defense is available. It's CBS and Right Aid pharmacies, Target,
(25:04):
Vitamin Chops, Sprouts, and all natural grocer stores. You can
also find out more information about Spry Dental Defense s
p r Y Dental Defense at clear dot com their
website x L e R. The X in Clear stands
for Xylotol Spray Dental defense. Stuff's incredible. The company is Clear.
(25:26):
They're they're the makers of the Clear nasal sprays to
keep your nose clean so that you don't get all
those bugs going through there and creating colds, flus and
everything else. All right, ladies and gentlemen, it is now
time for this week's installment of the health Outrage of
the week. She's you don't believe it. Come on each
(25:50):
time for the health outrage because it's nothing Bud. It's
big time outrageous. And this week's health outrage comes to
you from none other than Bear b a yeer that
am may be familiar. Bear Aspirin has been around for
a Millionayears, the company Bear, I think it's a German company.
(26:12):
They are currently facing get this now, one hundred and
seventy seven thousand lawsuits over claims that it's herbicide because
they're not just in the drug business Bear company B
a yer, they're in the pesticide herbicide arena as well,
(26:34):
or BIZ and they've got almost two hundred thousand lawsuits
overclaims that the herbicide roundup may contribute to all of
these cancers that are showing up everywhere, and now they're
being sued as a result of it. So instead of, however,
in addressing these concerns through transparency and accountability, the company
(26:57):
Bear is now lobbying for legislation that would make it
illegal to bring such lawsuits so long as their product
complies with EPA labeling. Where have you heard this before,
ladies and gentlemen, These big companies trying to change the
(27:18):
law so that they're toxic products that were allowed into
the marketplace. They can no longer be sued, they can
be shielded from lawsuits even though they're causing cancer all
over the place. They want the same privileges as the
vaccine companies who said, hey, we've got a product that's
safe and effective, but we never want to be sued
(27:41):
what's wrong with this picture. They're taking a play right
out of the playbook of the vaccine companies who want
to also have teflon coding, if you will, against lawsuits
in case a child becomes autistic as a result of
taking vaccines, which I believe absolutely happens, or somebody dies,
(28:01):
which absolutely happens, or somebody gets sick or has a
neurological problem or has triggered an autoimmune condition. They don't
want any lawsuits coming their way. To the vaccine companies,
and now the pesticide and herbicide companies like Bear, who
are in the business big time, they want to also
be shielded from this. Of course, what I'm talking about
here is glyphisate, which is the active ingredient in Roundup,
(28:24):
and people have been spraying it. They're outside in their
gardens spraying it on their vegetables and their fruit. They've
got shorts on, so the glicosate glypha sate is hitting
their skin and absorbing into their body. We know that
glypha sate is cancer causing, and they probably know at
Bayer that it's cancer causing, but they don't want these
(28:45):
lawsuits coming their way, so they're trying to grease the sled,
if you will, and pad the hand of the politicians
so that they can change the laws to protect them.
And to me, that's outrageous, and hopefully it'll be stopped
in its tracks, not allowing Bayer Company to pull the
woel over our eyes, just like the vaccine companies have
(29:08):
about the dangers of vaccines and now the dangers of
glyphosate and roundup. And that is why it qualified as
the health outrage of the week, the health outrage of
the week. All right, now we're finished with that, and
when we come back from this break, we're going to
(29:28):
have the product recall of the week, and then we're
going to go promptly back to your phone calls at
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two one
eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two, or
the website for emails at doctor Bob dot com. So
(29:49):
stay with us as we return here on the Doctor
Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
S I'm a Bossom number Simoncible, the one never single
(30:20):
days a power.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Okay today, Well, we want you to be unstoppable. We
want you to win every single day with respect to
your health. And that's exactly why we do this nationwide
radio health talk show. When I say we, I mean
my executive producer and co host of the show, doctor
(30:46):
Adam Brockman, is with us. I'm doctor Bob Martin. Welcomer,
Welcome back to the program. Coming up very shortly, here
will be the top ten healthiest states to live in.
Let's see if your state is one of them. But
before we get to that, let's ask doctor Adam Brockman
to deliver the product recall of the week.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
Doctor Bob, the product recall of the week. We have
an important alert that may affect many families, especially those
with food allergies. This week, we're talking about the favorite
Day Gourmet New York style cheesecake found in many targets
throughout the country, which has been recalled due to mislabeling.
The cheesecake contains but cons but the packaging fails to
(31:34):
disclose that it contains these tree nuts. This is a
serious concern, in particular for individuals with tree nut allergies.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
Doctor Bob.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
As a parent, I understand how alarming this can be.
I have a son with a tree nut allergy, and
we've seen firsthand how dangerous it is when he accidentally
consumes tree nuts, so it's crucial for products to be
accurately labeled as tree nuts are required to be listed
by the US FUND Federal Drug In excuse me, the FDA.
(32:03):
The recall was initiated on March twentieth after the manufacturer
received a customer complaint about the mislabeling. If you or
someone you know has purchased this cheesecake, it's essential.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
It's essential to check.
Speaker 4 (32:15):
Your pantry and avoid consuming it if you have a
tree nut allergy. The product recall of the week is
the favorite Dae Gourmet New York style cheesecake, found in
many targets throughout the country.

work with your calls. And next up is Sam calling
in from Chicago, Illinois.
Speaker 7 (35:05):
Hi, my name is Sam. I'm from Chicago. I am
actually calling in in regards to a story you did
I believe on h Mark Millick and an asteroid. I
just wanted to share my experience with that. I used
an asteroide that I got from Hymn's a couple of times,
(35:29):
and for the past two years I've been dealing with
very similar symptoms that were described in the story. For example,
you know, cognitive difficulties. I've had you know, sexual problems.
I've had changes to you know, my genitals. I've had
(35:50):
issues with muscle loss, dry scalp. I mean I could,
I could keep going, but uh yeah, for the past
two years, I've been dealing with I'd say probably at
least twenty separate symptoms that have not cleared up after
using Finasteride. And again I only use it a couple
(36:10):
of times. So I just wanted to share my experience
and hopefully, hopefully you know, you're able to get this,
and you know, maybe we'll save somebody else from having
this this syndrome after coming off the drug.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Yeah, the drug Finestride also called Propecia. Folks, We're hearing
more and more of this problem where these anybody can
go on the internet now or order this stuff and
start applying it, start taking this hair loss subblement finesteride propecia,
and then the fallout for many men after starting it
(36:50):
is completely disastrous, as you just heard. So if you're
someone who's losing your hair and worried about it and saying, okay,
I'll just take this in twice, we'll be right back.
This is my son, take money, sne.
Speaker 8 (37:14):
Not that lisson, all right, doctor Bob Martin and doctor
Adam Rockman back with you here.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
Thank you so very much for tuning into the show today. Wow,
time has just flown by so quickly today. We hope
that you have enjoyed today's program and you will take
the opportunity to tell other people so they can tune
into the show. And the way to do that is
to listen to the radio station you're listening to right now.
Jot down the call letters of the station, the frequency
(37:55):
on the dial, whether it's an a MRFM station, the
time of the day of the show is airing, and
then refer to as many people as you can so
they can listen in. And they'll thank you for that
because they're going to learn something about their health, their
most precious possession, and you'll be the hero of that.
All right, it is time now, ladies and gentlemen, for
this week's INSTALLMEDOV the Health Mystery of the Week, delivered
(38:16):
by doctor Adam Brockman.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
It's time for our health Mystery of the Week, and
today we're diving into a puzzling case that has captivated
a small town nestled in the heart of the Appalachian
Mountains over the past month. Several residents have unexpectedly fallen
into deep, prolonged sleep that has lasted for days at
a time. These episodes occur without warning, leaving those affected
(38:40):
feeling confused upon awakening. What could be this strange phenomenon,
this mystery of the week. It caused by a sudden
onset of extreme fatigue and inability to be awakened by
normal means, unresponsiveness, episodes that last between twenty four to
seventy two hours, and no memory.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
Of these events.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
Let's take a look at some of these theories. Environmental factors.
Is there a toxin or allergen in the air? Is
there a psychosomatic response? What could be triggering this? Is
there something that's happened to the area or an undiagnosed
neurological disorder. Well, my theory is there's mold in them hills.
My theory suggests that the mold could be causing a
(39:20):
significant factor here. Falling, the heavy floods caused by hurricanes
in North Carolina and Tennessee and Appalachian mountains and fall
of last year twenty twenty four, the destruction of the
homes and the bridges and everything that is falling down
and has to be repaired, has increased the mold growth
in these homes and buildings.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
That yes, the mold.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
And as this as everything's starting to bloom out here
in the last month or so, this mold exposure can
lead to a variety of health issues, including fatigue and
respiratory problems, which could explain these sudden sleep episodes. Mold
is the neurotoxin at play here. So as this as
a mystery remains unsolved, I'm telling you that is what
(40:03):
it is.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
It's mold.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
So doctor Bob, as investigation continues, this community is on
high alert, eagerly awaiting answers to the enigma of the
sudden sleepers.
Speaker 3 (40:13):
And this is your health mystery of the week.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Yeah, that's very excellent advice and console there, because I
think a lot of people deal with mold issues in
their bathrooms at home, or they maybe hit their bathtub
floods and he gets into the walls and they go, oh,
we'll just dry it out. No, no, no, folks, if
there's moisture there that mold can happen. Black mold can
be very dangerous. Check it out, make sure somebody looks
(40:36):
at that, and you fix the problem. Appreciate that. Doctor

Outrage of the Week. We've got a product recall to
tell you about, and a top ten list that speaks
(01:50):
to the healthiest states to live in in the US.
The top ten healthiest States to live in. I'm wondering
if the state you're living in is one on that list,
So stick around and you will find out. We've got
with us our executive producer and co host of the show,
(02:12):
doctor Adam Brockman, is with us. Good day to you,
Doctor Brockman.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Hi, Doctor Bob, good day to you.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Thank you for being here. I want to start off
this hour before we go back to our telephone calls
that are coming in asking health related questions or making
health comments on the Doctor Bob Martin Show caller hotline
number at eight hundred six zero six eight eight two
two eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two
(02:40):
and the website where health questions also are available for
our listeners. Over at doctor Bob dot com spelling out
the word doctor doctor bob dot com where you can
you can also write a health question to us that'll
get to us and then we'll talk about it on
the air. But before we get back to both of those,
Doctor Brockman, I wanted to discuss this fascinating article that
(03:04):
you brought to my attention about how people who are
subscribers to Netflix, which is amazingly popular these days, and Hulu,
their usage may trigger some major health problems. Now that
stop me in my tracks because my daughter is a
subscriber to Netflix, and I thought, well, who I need
(03:27):
to tell her about this? If she is if it
could be impacting her health, what do you have for us,
Doctor Brockman.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Regarding this, Doctor Bob, let's dive into this topic that
many of us can relate to. It's the impact of
binge watching our favorite shows in the impact that it
has on our health. Yes, these thrilling cliffhanters and dramatic
plot twists, they may be more than just entertaining. They
might be affecting our well being. So recent studies have
(03:54):
shown that watching intense or stressful shows can trigger our
bodies fight or flight report response. This means that as
you're glued to the screen, your heart rate spikes, your
cortisol levels rise, in stress hormones flood your system. It's
like your body is preparing for a showdown, even though
you're just watching a show. This Doctor Gallagher explains that
(04:17):
while turning off the TV can help bring those hormone
levels back to normal, the lingering effects of these that
dramatic content can make our minds think that we're in
a state of stress. This constant activation of these stress
response can lead to a host of health issues, including anxiety, depression,
muscle tension, weight gain, and even problems with memory and focus. Now,
(04:43):
let's talk about a broader impact of excessive television viewing
on the mental health as well. While some shows can
provide relaxation entertainment, over consumption of these shows can lead
to sedentary behavior, reduce physical activity, in social isolation, all
of which can negatively affect our mental health. Plus exposure
(05:04):
to this distressing or violent contact, it ramps up our
anxiety levels. Doctor Bob, So when I'm thinking about this,
I'm thinking about what kind of ways can we change this?
And I think the main one is we all know
we need to limit our screen time. But other ways
(05:25):
we can attack this physical activity, adequate sleep, social connections.
Remember I just said about the social isolation. With this,
make time to connect with friends and family, whether that's
in person or virtually. How about this, spend time in
nature the power of the great outdoors. Spending time in
nature can have this a calming effect and significantly improve
(05:48):
our moods. So take a break from the screen and
enjoy a walk in the park. Balancing your diet diets
that are rich in fruits, vegetables in Omega three fatty acids.
These food support brain health and can enhance your mood.
Think of as feeding your brain for the nutrients that
it craves, even if you are watching these shows, and
(06:09):
engage in hobbies that you find interest in active type
of activities.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Oh wow, that's interesting, doctor Bridman. Are there any numbers?
I don't how many people. Is there like a number
of prescribers that we know of? For Netflix? I know
it's amazingly popular these days to subscribe to Netflix. You
hear about it all the time and Hulu. You know,
(06:39):
is this something that you use or you or your
family is utilizing. As I mentioned, my daughter is a
subscriber to Netflix, and I brought she's a nurse. I
brought this to her attention, and she was also amazed
by the information.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Oh yeah, our family uses it.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
I'm not necessarily a binge watcher myself, but but we
definitely have a couple of the kids that they could
they could sit.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
There for hours and watch something. You know, we do.
We do keep an active lifestyle.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
So it's like, hey, after a little bit, go outside
to do something that is is better than sitting in
front of that screen.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
As far as numbers go, I don't. I don't have
a number in front of me, but I would.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
I would venture to say it's probably it's got to
be fifty percent of Americans. Fifty percent of adult Americans
probably subscribe to one of these services, maybe multiple of
these services.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Wow, that seems like a big number. So what you're
really saying is this is really dose dependent. It's just
like anything else. It's the more you sit there and
the more you binge and watch the boob tube as
we call it, because that's where it's coming across, the
worse off our state is because we're seeing these these
(07:55):
images and those images bouncing into our psyche and filling
us full of these thoughts of doom and gloom and
all the other stuff that these producers of these movies
and documentaries do, most of which is, you know, they're
trying to keep us on the edge of our chair
(08:15):
all the time, thrilling stuff to keep our brain rolling
so that we don't yawn, fall asleep or leave the
boob tube area. And you're saying that, I guess is
that all that stimuli, when it becomes excessive, it sort
of takes over and then suddenly we start living that
stress because of those levels of stress hormones that are
(08:38):
evoked in response to that visual stimuli. Do do I
have that correct?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Or?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Am I way out of balance on this, Doctor Brockmann.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
You're right on You're right on target with that, doctor Bob.
Remember it's all about balance. While it's okay to indulge
in your favor favorite shows, being mindful of how they
affect your health is key. You just mentioned there. By
incorporating the strategies that I mentioned into your normal routine,
you can help support your mental health and enjoy your
(09:08):
downtime without the negative side effects.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Okay, So there you have it, ladies and I'm on
the key. The messaging here is that if you have
a subscription to Netflix or Hulu or anything else that
you enjoy, or a channel on the television that you like,
and you go to that, it's all about how long,
(09:34):
how much, and then what you do afterwards to sort
of rebuke it if it is psychologically draining or has
some high level anxiety content producing action to it. That's
really what it's about, knowing and always keeping in mind
that what you're doing there is you're just entertaining yourself.
(09:57):
It's entertainment. What I think happens is people start living
and stressing over what they're seeing, not realizing it's an
extension of what they watched and it's not real. It's fake.
It's make believe. And that's why it's so important to
if you're going to do it, to take smaller doses
of it, and then afterwards find healthy measures by which
(10:22):
to reduce the effects of it, as doctor Brockman laid out, exercise,
and then you know, just telling yourself, oh, that's not real,
and telling your children if they're in the room, that's
not real. This is all fake. This is acting, it's pretending,
and you need to just utilize it in the manner
in which it's designed to. All right, thanks for that,
(10:44):
Doctor Brockman. Stay tuned, ladies and gentlemen. When we come back,
we're going to have a health alternative of the week
for you here on the Doctor Bob Martin Show.

want to remind you how important it is to keep
consistent with and use the very best thing in your
dental care that you possibly can. You know, sometimes we
take brushing our teeth and flossing and all of that
(22:24):
for granted and just go to the store and we
just throw into the cart, you know, the one that
we're familiar with in terms of toothpaste. It might be Crest,
it might be Faoro brand, it might be Coldgate or
one of those other brands that have been around forever.
But when you check out the label on these toothpastes,
these commercial toothpastes, or the mouthwash is, whether it be
(22:47):
listerine or whatever it is, you start reading all these
chemicals that are hard to pronounce, that are usually six
or seven syllables long, and you think to yourself, Oh, oh,
it's got something good in it. I guess I can't
pronounce it. Don't know what it is. No, No, don't
think that. Think that that's a chemical you don't need
or want in your body. It's not of nature, it's
not of man. It's synthetic. It's probably petrochemical. You don't
(23:10):
want it. Switch over to what I did years and
years ago, as well as my entire family and my
colleagues who understand the research that's coming out about how
important it is to keep your dental health in good check,
because if you have any low grade simmering inflammatory process
or low grade infection in your mouth, whether it be
related to tooth deca or ginger vitis, or peridonal disease,
(23:34):
or just bad breath or a coated tongue, all of
that means that there's trouble in your oral cavity. Switch
over to what I did called the Spry Spry Dental
Defense system. It includes Spry toothpaste, Spry mouth rints. You
can even get gum and mints that are Spry as well.
(23:57):
And the reason for this is that the Sprie dental
defense system has some secret sauce in it, which really
is not a secret anymore because millions of people are
now using the Sprie dental defense system. It comes in
delicious flavors like peppermint and cinnamon and spearmint. The secret
sauce is xylotol. Xylatol is used by millions of people
(24:19):
and it's a plant based ingredient in the Spry toothpaste,
in the mouthwash and the mints of the gum. And
what it does is it tricks the bad bacteria which
drills holes in your teeth, destroys your gums, and creates
all that distress in your oral cavity your mouth and
then leads you to problems which you need to have
(24:41):
cleared up by the dentist or the hygienist or somebody else.
So switch over to the Spride dental defense system. Say
goodbye to cavity's plaque and bad news that you'll get
the next time you're in the dental chair that you
shouldn't get if you were using the Sprie dentdeal Defense system.
Defense is available. It's CBS and Right Aid pharmacies, Target,
(25:04):
Vitamin Chops, Sprouts, and all natural grocer stores. You can
also find out more information about Spry Dental Defense s
p r Y Dental Defense at clear dot com their
website x L e R. The X in Clear stands
for Xylotol Spray Dental defense. Stuff's incredible. The company is Clear.
(25:26):
They're they're the makers of the Clear nasal sprays to
keep your nose clean so that you don't get all
those bugs going through there and creating colds, flus and
everything else. All right, ladies and gentlemen, it is now
time for this week's installment of the health Outrage of
the week. She's you don't believe it. Come on each
(25:50):
time for the health outrage because it's nothing Bud. It's
big time outrageous. And this week's health outrage comes to
you from none other than Bear b a yeer that
am may be familiar. Bear Aspirin has been around for
a Millionayears, the company Bear, I think it's a German company.
(26:12):
They are currently facing get this now, one hundred and
seventy seven thousand lawsuits over claims that it's herbicide because
they're not just in the drug business Bear company B
a yer, they're in the pesticide herbicide arena as well,
(26:34):
or BIZ and they've got almost two hundred thousand lawsuits
overclaims that the herbicide roundup may contribute to all of
these cancers that are showing up everywhere, and now they're
being sued as a result of it. So instead of, however,
in addressing these concerns through transparency and accountability, the company
(26:57):
Bear is now lobbying for legislation that would make it
illegal to bring such lawsuits so long as their product
complies with EPA labeling. Where have you heard this before,
ladies and gentlemen, These big companies trying to change the
(27:18):
law so that they're toxic products that were allowed into
the marketplace. They can no longer be sued, they can
be shielded from lawsuits even though they're causing cancer all
over the place. They want the same privileges as the
vaccine companies who said, hey, we've got a product that's
safe and effective, but we never want to be sued
(27:41):
what's wrong with this picture. They're taking a play right
out of the playbook of the vaccine companies who want
to also have teflon coding, if you will, against lawsuits
in case a child becomes autistic as a result of
taking vaccines, which I believe absolutely happens, or somebody dies,
(28:01):
which absolutely happens, or somebody gets sick or has a
neurological problem or has triggered an autoimmune condition. They don't
want any lawsuits coming their way. To the vaccine companies,
and now the pesticide and herbicide companies like Bear, who
are in the business big time, they want to also
be shielded from this. Of course, what I'm talking about
here is glyphisate, which is the active ingredient in Roundup,
(28:24):
and people have been spraying it. They're outside in their
gardens spraying it on their vegetables and their fruit. They've
got shorts on, so the glicosate glypha sate is hitting
their skin and absorbing into their body. We know that
glypha sate is cancer causing, and they probably know at
Bayer that it's cancer causing, but they don't want these
(28:45):
lawsuits coming their way, so they're trying to grease the sled,
if you will, and pad the hand of the politicians
so that they can change the laws to protect them.
And to me, that's outrageous, and hopefully it'll be stopped
in its tracks, not allowing Bayer Company to pull the
woel over our eyes, just like the vaccine companies have
(29:08):
about the dangers of vaccines and now the dangers of
glyphosate and roundup. And that is why it qualified as
the health outrage of the week, the health outrage of
the week. All right, now we're finished with that, and
when we come back from this break, we're going to
(29:28):
have the product recall of the week, and then we're
going to go promptly back to your phone calls at
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two one
eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two, or
the website for emails at doctor Bob dot com. So
(29:49):
stay with us as we return here on the Doctor
Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
S I'm a Bossom number Simoncible, the one never single
(30:20):
days a power.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Okay today, Well, we want you to be unstoppable. We
want you to win every single day with respect to
your health. And that's exactly why we do this nationwide
radio health talk show. When I say we, I mean
my executive producer and co host of the show, doctor
(30:46):
Adam Brockman, is with us. I'm doctor Bob Martin. Welcomer,
Welcome back to the program. Coming up very shortly, here
will be the top ten healthiest states to live in.
Let's see if your state is one of them. But
before we get to that, let's ask doctor Adam Brockman
to deliver the product recall of the week.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
Doctor Bob, the product recall of the week. We have
an important alert that may affect many families, especially those
with food allergies. This week, we're talking about the favorite
Day Gourmet New York style cheesecake found in many targets
throughout the country, which has been recalled due to mislabeling.
The cheesecake contains but cons but the packaging fails to
(31:34):
disclose that it contains these tree nuts. This is a
serious concern, in particular for individuals with tree nut allergies.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
Doctor Bob.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
As a parent, I understand how alarming this can be.
I have a son with a tree nut allergy, and
we've seen firsthand how dangerous it is when he accidentally
consumes tree nuts, so it's crucial for products to be
accurately labeled as tree nuts are required to be listed
by the US FUND Federal Drug In excuse me, the FDA.
(32:03):
The recall was initiated on March twentieth after the manufacturer
received a customer complaint about the mislabeling. If you or
someone you know has purchased this cheesecake, it's essential.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
It's essential to check.
Speaker 4 (32:15):
Your pantry and avoid consuming it if you have a
tree nut allergy. The product recall of the week is
the favorite Dae Gourmet New York style cheesecake, found in
many targets throughout the country.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
Any target stores. Okay, thank you for that, doctor Brockman. Now,
ladies Jonas stand by. We're going to go in just
a moment here to your phone call and email questions
at eight hundred and six oh six eight eight two
to two or doctor Bob dot com. But first, we
have for you a top ten list of healthiest states
to live. Let's see if you live in one of them.
(32:47):
Here we go, all right, Based on data from organizations
like America's Health Rankings and Forbes Advisors, we have for
you the top ten healthiest states within the United States,
starting with number ten. Rhode Island. Rhode Island is known
(33:07):
for its strong healthcare system and its focus on public
health initiatives. Number nine on the list. Washington, Washington state
strong focus again public health and preventive care. Number eight
on the list. Minnesota. It's often recognized for its healthy
lifestyle habits low rates of chronic disease. Number seven. Utah,
Utah is known for its low rates of obesity and

strong health outcomes, particularly for women. Number three on the
list of top ten healthy est states in the US.
New Hampshire. New Hampshire is no for its low rates
of diabetes and tobacco use. Number two in the list. Colorado,
Colorado consistently ranks high due to its low obesity rates,
(34:10):
high exercise participation, and good air quality, and the number
one state on the Healthiest States list. In America is
none other than Hawaii. Yes again, once again, Hawaii often
cited as the healthiest state overall. Hawaii has a low
prevalence of chronic disease and a high life expectancy. And
(34:34):
I'm going to throw in here for the people who
are thinking about this, Hawaii also has the lowest lowest
rate of property tax. Yes, property tax is the lowest,
the very lowest, in the state of Hawaii. So there
you have it. The top ten healthiest states in America.
(34:55):
Hope you live in one of them, and maybe you
want to move to one of them now as a
result of that list. All right, let's get back to
work with your calls. And next up is Sam calling
in from Chicago, Illinois.
Speaker 7 (35:05):
Hi, my name is Sam. I'm from Chicago. I am
actually calling in in regards to a story you did
I believe on h Mark Millick and an asteroid. I
just wanted to share my experience with that. I used
an asteroide that I got from Hymn's a couple of times,
(35:29):
and for the past two years I've been dealing with
very similar symptoms that were described in the story. For example,
you know, cognitive difficulties. I've had you know, sexual problems.
I've had changes to you know, my genitals. I've had
(35:50):
issues with muscle loss, dry scalp. I mean I could,
I could keep going, but uh yeah, for the past
two years, I've been dealing with I'd say probably at
least twenty separate symptoms that have not cleared up after
using Finasteride. And again I only use it a couple
(36:10):
of times. So I just wanted to share my experience
and hopefully, hopefully you know, you're able to get this,
and you know, maybe we'll save somebody else from having
this this syndrome after coming off the drug.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Yeah, the drug Finestride also called Propecia. Folks, We're hearing
more and more of this problem where these anybody can
go on the internet now or order this stuff and
start applying it, start taking this hair loss subblement finesteride propecia,
and then the fallout for many men after starting it
(36:50):
is completely disastrous, as you just heard. So if you're
someone who's losing your hair and worried about it and saying, okay,
I'll just take this in twice, we'll be right back.
This is my son, take money, sne.
Speaker 8 (37:14):
Not that lisson, all right, doctor Bob Martin and doctor
Adam Rockman back with you here.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
Thank you so very much for tuning into the show today. Wow,
time has just flown by so quickly today. We hope
that you have enjoyed today's program and you will take
the opportunity to tell other people so they can tune
into the show. And the way to do that is
to listen to the radio station you're listening to right now.
Jot down the call letters of the station, the frequency
(37:55):
on the dial, whether it's an a MRFM station, the
time of the day of the show is airing, and
then refer to as many people as you can so
they can listen in. And they'll thank you for that
because they're going to learn something about their health, their
most precious possession, and you'll be the hero of that.
All right, it is time now, ladies and gentlemen, for
this week's INSTALLMEDOV the Health Mystery of the Week, delivered
(38:16):
by doctor Adam Brockman.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
It's time for our health Mystery of the Week, and
today we're diving into a puzzling case that has captivated
a small town nestled in the heart of the Appalachian
Mountains over the past month. Several residents have unexpectedly fallen
into deep, prolonged sleep that has lasted for days at
a time. These episodes occur without warning, leaving those affected
(38:40):
feeling confused upon awakening. What could be this strange phenomenon,
this mystery of the week. It caused by a sudden
onset of extreme fatigue and inability to be awakened by
normal means, unresponsiveness, episodes that last between twenty four to
seventy two hours, and no memory.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
Of these events.
Speaker 4 (38:58):
Let's take a look at some of these theories. Environmental factors.
Is there a toxin or allergen in the air? Is
there a psychosomatic response? What could be triggering this? Is
there something that's happened to the area or an undiagnosed
neurological disorder. Well, my theory is there's mold in them hills.
My theory suggests that the mold could be causing a
(39:20):
significant factor here. Falling, the heavy floods caused by hurricanes
in North Carolina and Tennessee and Appalachian mountains and fall
of last year twenty twenty four, the destruction of the
homes and the bridges and everything that is falling down
and has to be repaired, has increased the mold growth
in these homes and buildings.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
That yes, the mold.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
And as this as everything's starting to bloom out here
in the last month or so, this mold exposure can
lead to a variety of health issues, including fatigue and
respiratory problems, which could explain these sudden sleep episodes. Mold
is the neurotoxin at play here. So as this as
a mystery remains unsolved, I'm telling you that is what
(40:03):
it is.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
It's mold.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
So doctor Bob, as investigation continues, this community is on
high alert, eagerly awaiting answers to the enigma of the
sudden sleepers.
Speaker 3 (40:13):
And this is your health mystery of the week.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
Yeah, that's very excellent advice and console there, because I
think a lot of people deal with mold issues in
their bathrooms at home, or they maybe hit their bathtub
floods and he gets into the walls and they go, oh,
we'll just dry it out. No, no, no, folks, if
there's moisture there that mold can happen. Black mold can
be very dangerous. Check it out, make sure somebody looks
(40:36):
at that, and you fix the problem. Appreciate that. Doctor
Adam Brockman talk to you next week. Ladies and gentlemen,
making a healthy day in a healthy week. You've been
tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show, Be Well.
