hundred six oh six eighty eight twenty two. Eight hundred
six oh six eighty eight twenty two. That's eight hundred
six zero six eighty eight twenty two. It's the Doctor
Bob Martin sho Show.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
Welcome and Hello. This is doctor Adam Brockman for The
Doctor Bob Martin Show, America's number one health talk radio show.
And ladies and gentlemen, you will not want to miss
a moment of this hour, as we're going to bring
some light on what you can only call as medical insanity,
where grown men are paying thousands, tens of thousands of

(01:23):
dollars even to have their legs broken and stretched like
a medieval torture victim, all for just a few extra
inches in height. In joining me today in standing tall
for your health is doctor Bob Martin. How are you today,
doctor Bob?

Speaker 4 (01:41):
Doing really well today, doctor Robbin? I hope you are,
and I hope our audience is healthy and happy.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah, I'm doing great and hope the audience is as
well well, doctor Bob. Today we're going to expose one
of the most disturbing health trends to emerge since lobotomies
were considered good medicine. It's kind of crazy to think
about this. It's I mean, I can only describe it
as it's not self improvement, it's self mutilation and disguise's empowerment.

(02:13):
I want listeners to imagine this. You walk into a
clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, you hand over thirty two thousand
and let surgeons saw your femurs in half, screw metal
rods into your bones, and then you spend the next
year turning a crank every day to slowly pry your
legs apart millimeter by agonizing millimeter, and the reward maybe

(02:38):
you gain two to three inches if you're lucky enough
to avoid ending up in a wheelchair. This is called
leg lengthening surgery. And thanks to Hollywood glamorizations like the
movie The Materialist in social media influencers, it's becoming the
new frontier of male vanity. But this is what they

(03:02):
don't tell you. One in five patients suffer permanent nerve damage,
bones that are left that never fully heal, and they
leave victims with chronic pain and over sixty percent of
these require additional corrective surgeries, and some develop something known
as ballerina syndrome, where your feet are permanently arched like

(03:25):
a dancer's making it almost impossible to walk without pain.
And again for what, because some guy at five seven
thinks he wants to be five' ten and this will
magically solve his dating. Problems, now, LISTENERS i want you
to contrast that with our upcoming health alternat of the,
week and that's a solution that actually strengthens bones without breaking.

(03:49):
Them and then we're also going to get into radioactive
shrimp scandal that's hit in THE us right now in
a mystery behind tooth regrowth and, yeah that's. Real but
we also we want to get to your calls and
we want your voice on. Air what health advice are you?
Seeking what's keeping you from thriving or? Thriving call us

(04:14):
now at eight hundred six zero six eight eight two.
Two that's eight hundred six zero six eight eight two,
two or leave us an email at doctor bob dot.
Com no question is too. Bold this is your. Platform
that's eight hundred six zero six EIGHT a two to
two or doctor bob dot. Com spawn out the word
doctor docto r bob dot. Com all, right, folks let's

(04:39):
grab your notebooks and maybe a stress ball for this,
story because this hour is going to be one wild
ride through modern health's best and. Worst let's go ahead
and get started with this a little bit further into
this leg lengthening. Madness it's, barbaric it's vanity, driven and
it's an epidemic that's making men mutilate themselves for just
a few. INCHES i, mean Doctor, bob what in the

(05:03):
name of modern insanity is going on? Here this story
is so. Outrageous this is also going to double as
our top story and health outrage of the. Week we've
reached this peak societal, dysfunction where otherwise healthy men are
voluntarily having their legs sawed in, half bones pried apart

(05:23):
like a medieval torture, device in nerves that are fried into,
oblivion all to gain a measly few inches in. HEIGHT
i don't call this. Medicine this Is frankenstein levital. Vanity
it's masquerading as self, improvement and thanks to celebrities Like
Pedro pascal's character In The, materialist it's a grotesque procedure

(05:46):
and it's now slithering into mainstream. Conversation we're going to
dive into a, dark twisted world of leg lengthening surgery
where this ambition to be taller meets masochism and the
result they're nothing short of. Horrifying let's go ahead and
just rip this band is right off the. Surgery it's.

(06:06):
Barbaric imagine handing over thirty two thousand to a clinic
In turkey so they can break your femurs with a medical,
saw screw metal rods into your, flesh and then here's
the cherry on. Top they force you to turn a
literal crank every day to stretch your legs apart millimeter by.

(06:27):
Millimeter that's not. Science that's a do it yourself limbs
stretching from the dark. AGES i want to give an example, Here.
Frank he's a thirty eight year. Old this clinic is
Called Make Me taller In, turkey and he was a
patient that was featured a feature story in The guardian
at five foot. Six he decided that being quote short

(06:48):
and by theory that's not even that. Short it was
so unbearable that he was willing to shatter his, legs,
endure nerve pain so severe he caught. Say he said
it wrecked. Him and he also admitted to blowing his
honeymoon Find so now he risks chronic. Disability and this

(07:09):
is all for four. Inches that's a four that's less
than the height of A Starbucks grande. Cup and yet
as a quote self made man, himself it's ironic since
this new height is manufactured By turkish, surgeons and it's
a medieval sounds very. MEDIEVAL i don't think it's self,

(07:33):
made it's man. Made so these men they're telling themselves a.
Lie it's not, vanity it's a. Necessity and these, clinics
they're peddling this. Butchery they love to frame it as
fighting height, discrimination as if breaking your legs is some
noble civil rights. Crusade one woman at this clinic make me,

(07:56):
taller and guess women do this. Too although it's, very
very pretty rare for the. Surgery she claimed that shortness
is quote the last acceptable acceptable prejudice. Unquote And i'm
thinking here is there are people out there that are
really denied jobs by quote height, challenge you, know housing

(08:17):
or basic. Dignity, Meanwhile i'm thinking about actual marginalized groups
that are fighting real systemic oppression and they're not paying
one hundred and seventy five thousand to play a human stretch. Armstrong,
so Doctor, BOB i want to get your thoughts on
this real quick before the.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
Break it sounds like another TikTok nonsense to, me this
kind of. Thing and the first thing that ought to
set people off is the Word. Turkey when you travel
out of The United states to a foreign land where
they do these sorts of, things a lot of, them
and the theme there is come To. Turkey it's less,

(08:57):
expensive you don't have to worry able to put you.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
Up we got great.

Speaker 4 (09:00):
Hospital find you a place you, know but what you
don't hear about are the disasters that happen not that
the same disaster couldn't happen. Here BUT i don't see
any leg lengthening surgery going, on at least in The
United states. Yet what is? Wrong Doctor brockmann was just
putting a heel lift in your heel of your shoe
and bypassing all of this this pain and torture and

(09:23):
expense and. Risk that's where people need to. Go if
they if they if they have been talked into or
they've talked themselves into believing that they're not perfect the
way they are, born be that, short, tall, slim, overweight brown,
hair blonde, hair. Everybody it's always greener on the other
side of the fence in some, manner and it's usually

(09:44):
because Of hollywood and social media just hammering on people
to be somebody that they're not that creates this in our.
Children that's where at, all that's the genesis of this,
problem and we need to as a nation wake up
and realize that let's just flat out, wrong and more
important than, that it's.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Dangerous, YEAH i think you hit it there with that celebrity.
Effect When hollywood is glamorizing the self, mutilization and it's
thanks to those shows Like The materialist that leg lengthen
Is now it's being framed as just another cosmetic choice
like botox or a nose, job except botox it doesn't
leave you bedridden for six. Months In This, Materialist Dakota,

(10:27):
johnson her character reacts in shock when she hears men
are doing this and we all should be doing. This
and then there's influencers like This colombian star who says
he dropped one hundred and seventy five thousand to go
from five to eight to six foot and now he's
in twenty four to seven pain and agony so severe
he can't, sleep and he's got metal rods that are
threatening to collapse his. Body we're gonna touch on a

(10:49):
couple alternatives when we come back from. Break you're listening
to The Doctor Bob Martin.

Speaker 5 (10:54):
Shows.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
And welcome. Back i'm Doctor Adam, brockman and you're listening
to The Doctor Bob Martin, show and we want to
teach you to become your own best. Doctor most of the,
Time Doctor bob AND i we want to remind you
if you've got questions about natural health nutrition or anything in.
Between our toll free hotline is always open to. You
and that's eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to.

(11:39):
Two that's where Doctor bob AND i to licensed physicians
were standing by to help you unlock your best. Self,
again that's eight hundred six er o six eight eight
two to. Two let's get back into our conversation on
leg lengthening. Surgery and right before the, break we were
talking ABOUT uh The hollywood component here AND uh in
influencers and this EXAMPLE i was giving with This Jefferson.

(12:02):
Corsio he's A Colombian instagram star who again he dropped
one hundred and seventy five thousand to go from five
to eight to six. Foot in his reward, AGAIN i was,
mentioning he's in pain twenty four hours a, day seven
days a, week and it's so severe he can't. Sleep
he's got metal rods that are either are threatening to
collapse his body in a future that might and mighte

(12:25):
involve never walking normally. Again but, hey at least he
looks good and he looks tall in Those instagram. Photos
so Doctor, BOB i want to talk about a natural
health perspective in better ways to do something so barbaric
to be. Blunt this isn't this is the opposite of.

(12:45):
Health you want to feel. Taller here's some. Suggestions strengthen your.
Posture hunching over time can steal. Inches you also need
to build muscle a confident. Stance it looks. Taller and
as Doctor bob, mentioned where heel lifts are any, lifts
and they're, cheap they're, painless and they're. Reversible but instead

(13:09):
we've got men mortgaging their futures literally to lie in
bed for, months pop pain fills and they praying their
bones don't fail to. Regenerate it's delusional and it's a,
dangerous desperate. Scam and i'd call it what it, is
a lucrative scam that's praying on insecurity these. Clinics they're

(13:31):
not empowering, people they're cashing in on. Desperation and the worst,
part it's spreading. Everywhere surgeons they report doubling demand in recent.
Years and where does it? End and will we start
stretching spines, next or maybe we're going to start to elongate.
Skulls it's not a. Progress it's self mutilizing dressed up

(13:54):
as self. Improvement so Doctor, BOB i want to get
your thoughts on, this but here's my final. Thought stop just.
Stop your height doesn't define you and certainly not enough
to sell your legs.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
Apart, WELL i think that these people who are in
that space where they think that they're you, know they're
they're they've got some sort of a disability being at
a certain height that they were born with and somebody
has reinforced that in them and they've believed. It they
need some therapy between their, ears mostly, counseling as to

(14:26):
try to get them back to loving themselves again the
way they, are.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
The perfect way they were.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Born AND i think that before anyone undergoes this here
in The United, states If god forbid it ever happened,
here we know that this is happening In, turkey maybe
in some other you, know clandestine, places you need to
ask that person to undergo, therapy mental, emotional psychological therapy

(14:54):
for at least two, months to talk it over with,
somebody to find out where this originates. From you, know
why is it that they they are able to and
think about risking their life and suffering chronically with the
adverse side effects of such surgeries before they go forward with,
this AND i think a lot of them will be
talked out of it and it won't even become an.

(15:14):
Issue so and you, know it brings me back TO.
I as you, know Doctor, BROCKMAN i travel a, lot
AND i WHEN i, travel AND i have to sleep
in raunchy, beds beds and hotels which are just horrible
for your. Spine and then you get all bent out
of shape and your back hurts and your neck, hurts
and you, go wait a, MINUTE i didn't feel this
this way BEFORE i. Traveled and you come back home

(15:37):
and you're in the same shape because you slept in
like a, hammock a bed that's like feels like you,
know it's like sunken in the. Middle and you get
home and you, go, okay HERE i, Am why AM
i feeling like? This you have a choice to. Make
you can either take drugs and pretend it's not there
and covered up see the proper form of health care
provider to get it straightened, out or make sure that

(16:00):
before you go into a travel situation you select hotels
that actually have decent. Mattresses and there are ways to
find that out by asking that. Question, UNFORTUNATELY i was
referred to a hotel who had AND i will NAME
i will not name names, here but it was a horrible.
Choice And i'm back, here you, know back on My

(16:22):
cairo slumber, mattress trying to rehabilitate because of this hotel.
Mattress now, again the average person might start taking ibuprofen
or think about going to a doctor to see somebody
for some injections or or some other more invasive, thing
when in fact the cure is right inside your.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Body, yeah and with, that Doctor bob, Is i'm going
to give our health alternative of the week is going
to be a natural way to strengthen bones without breaking
to lengthen. Them all, right, Folks our health alternative of

(17:12):
the week is Sun warriors vegan collagen. Builder it's the
natural way to strengthen your. Bones so our first story
on leg lengthening surgery it's, barbaric but so is ignoring
bone health. Altogether weak bones they lead to, fractures, osteoporosis
and a lifetime of. Pain most collagen supplements they come

(17:34):
from animal, sources so that doesn't leave a lot of
options if you are. Vegan so the solution this week's
health alternative is Sun warriors vegan collagen building protein. Peptides
it's one hundred percent plant, based it's scientifically. Backed it's
a way to boost collagen. Production it's strengthen your bones

(17:55):
and support your joints and no surgery. Required the science
behind is it includes those plant powered collagen boosters and
instead of those animal, byproducts Sun warrior uses ORGANIC p
protein with amino acids like glycine and. Proline those are
your collagen building. Blocks it also has hyaluronic acid from

(18:19):
fermentation that lubricate the joints and they keep bones. Flexible
it has VITAMIN c extracts and that's critical for that collagen.
Synthesis the supplement is it's bioavailable and it's easy to.
Absorb the peptides in it are pre formulated for maximum.
Absorption the translation there is your bones get the goods.

(18:42):
Faster there's no cruelty with, this no heavy metals and no.
Nonsense it's free from, GMOs it's got free from dairy
soy in its. Vegan the animal sourcing that happens in
traditional collagen supplements is not in. This and let's go
ahead and compare it to this leg lengthening. Madness, say for,

(19:04):
instance the cost of the collagen Sun Warrior vegan collagen
it's forty dollars maybe a moth versus the surgery at
thirty two thousand to one hundred and seventy five. Thousand
the pain level it's. Zero with a, collagen it actually
tastes very good and the surgery is. Excruciating bones are.

(19:25):
Broken the timeline of. This you see results with a
collagen supplement after four to eight, Weeks Doctor, Bob have
you tried the Sun warrior product.

Speaker 4 (19:35):
Line about every morning with their collagen and, protein their
plant based. Proteins it's not only, delicious it's. Clean it
does what it says it's going to. Do you don't
have any of the sweeteners are going to spike your
blood sugar or any additives which are going to pollute your.
Body sunware top of the food chain as it relates to, protein,

(19:59):
powder supple, centation plant, based and their collagen line is
superb as.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
Well, YEAH i like all the Sun warrior. PRODUCTS i
consider those for the ones that are those weekend, warriors the,
athletes the ones that really want that bump in nutritional
value that that can be you know, again it can be,
vegan it can be for those that do eat animal.
Products it's a very good supplement across the across the,
board it's a Sun warrior. Products in this one we

(20:26):
were talking about this week for the health alternative was
the Sun warrior collagen building protein. Peptides all, right, folks

(21:52):
Question but, first Doctor, BOB i want to talk about
something that most people, dread and that's the dentist's. Chair
but a moment when they peer into your mouth and you're,
praying they don't, say, well we need to. Talk, well
here's my not so secret, weapon and that's The spray
dental defense. System this is what my entire clinic, team my,

(22:14):
Family Doctor bob and his, family and, yes even my
dental hygienis used to keep our mouths in. Check here's
the game changer for. Spry it's. Xylotol it's a plant
based powerhouse that is a natural, sweetener but it's also
a full on dental. Bodyguard it fights, cavities knocks out,

(22:34):
plaque and kicks bad breath to the. Curb And Spry
it packs it with every, product their, toothpaste their mouth.
Rents the gum in the. MINTS i got flavors like,
peppermint cinnamon and, spearmint all the flavors you love with
none of the. Guilt so my ROUTINE i brush With spry,
TOOTHPASTE i rinse With spry, mouthwash AND i pop a

(22:57):
piece Of spry gum after. Meals it's like having my
dental hygienist in my back. Pocket and the best, part
no drastic habit changes are. Needed you just swap what
you're already using For spry and let xylotol work its.
Magic so imagine your dentist leaning back and, saying whatever you're,

(23:17):
doing keep doing. It, that my, friends is The spry,
effect and you'll find it AT, cvs write, eight target,
sprouts in natural, grocers pretty much anywhere good oral health.
Lives if you want to know more about, it head
over To clear dot. Com that's X L E r dot.
Com that's the same geniuses Behind clear nasal, sprays, which

(23:40):
by the, WAY i recommend having those in your wellness
toolkit as. Well so bottom, line if you want a
mouth that's as healthy as it is, fresh it's time
to go spry your teeth and your dental hygienist will thank.
You all, right doctor bob Let, is let's get to
a couple of color. Questions let's get To albert From Iowa, City.

Speaker 6 (24:01):
Iowa, Albert Iowa, City. Iowa my question is about. SHINGLES
i had shingles that was treated with valas cyclover and
pretozone several months. Ago it's back. NOW i wonder if
there's any other way to treat the eye rather than the.

(24:23):
Pretazone thank, You.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
Albert, well thank you for your, question and it's a
it's always a timely and important. Question shingles are herpee.
Zaster it's a condition that can be very, stubborn especially
when it affects the, eye and that's it's known as
herpe zaster uh IN a in the ia. Apothalamus now
you've already been down that conventional route with valas cyclovir

(24:52):
that's an anti, viral and then the pregno, zone which
is a cortico. Steroid so let's take a look at
this from a whole body natural medicine. Perspective first, off
when shingles occurs in that or near that, eye it
tells us something. Key your immune system needs. Support steroids

(25:13):
like pregnant zone can reduce inflammation a short, term but
they also suppress the immune function long, term and that
might actually hinder your body's ability to keep that virus.
Dormant so my Recommendations, albert you need to strengthen your immune,
system so let's move away from that suppression and shift towards.
Support consider l. Lysine that's amino acid that helps suppress

(25:37):
that herpes virus in all. Forms myself and many clinicians
use it successfully for. Shingles support often does about one
thousand to fifteen hundred milligrams per, day and you can
use that on a empty stomachs for better. Absorption as
far as anti viral, botanicals herbal medicine offers tremendous. Support

(25:57):
here one of my go TOS. Ismbom it's known for
its anti viral, properties especially against herpes. Viruses it can
be taken as a t or a tinker and olive
leaf extract is another strong natural antiviral with immune modulating.
Effects mean immune boosting. Effects as far as your eye,

(26:17):
goes you need to look at nutrients like VITAMIN, a,
zinc and VITAMIN c and that's a critical for tissue
repair and immune. DEFENSE i also recommend looking at armed
By Wise Choice. Medicine you can find that by going
To White's Choice medicine dot com or you can visit
our website for more information on. That you know you,

(26:40):
also let's look at the nervous system. Here shingles is
notorious for emerging during times of, stress so if we're
looking at adaptagen herbs like, oshwagonda it can help regulate
your stress response and reduce those viral flare. Ups you,
know never underestimate the role of chronic stress in these
viral reactivation like. Shingles as far as topical, relief some

(27:04):
patients report relief using essential oils like t tree oil or,
lavender and it should be applied around but never near
the eye. Area, AGAIN i want to repeat that never
near or on the. Eye always work with a knowledgeable
practitioner for this. One as far as when shingles affects the,
eye it can threaten vision if you're experiencing, pain visual,

(27:26):
changes light, sensitivity or, redness you need to be under
the care of an eye, doctor preferably one with experience
in viral eye. Conditions So, albert while pregnant zone might
tamp things down for right. Now there are ways to
treat your body more, holistically supporting your immune, system reducing,
reoccurrence and helping your eye heel. Naturally thanks again for your.

(27:50):
QUESTION i want to get Doctor bob's input on.

Speaker 4 (27:51):
This, Yes i've treated many cases of, shingles including people
who have had ocular shingles. Challenges it's a very very,
serious potential serious problem for somebody's vision to have a
virus attack the optic nerve or the eye in. General
so he, needs as you pointed, out needs to be

(28:13):
under careful optimologic observation. Supervision, meanwhile he said something interesting
that a lot of people will utter that is just completely,
wrong and that is that his shingles came. Back i'm
here to tell, you and this is what people need to.
Know it never. Left it never, left because once you

(28:36):
get infected with a herpes, virus it's there laying in
the sheath of the nerve for the rest of your
life and it will be sequestered. There it will be
put into remission. There the immune system will keep it
in jail if you, will as long as the terrain
of your body remains. Healthy how does that? Happen, well
you get seven hours of, sleep as Doctor brockmann pointed,

(28:59):
out any important things you stay out from underneath. Stress
you get good, nutrition you have a positive mental, attitude
you get, exercise all those things that help maintain. Health
my best recommendations for people with shingles or any perpetic
lesion zer to take something called elderberry extract black elderberry.
Extract it is the singular most potent thing for any

(29:21):
kind of herpes and. Infection black elderberry. Extract it's available
at health food. Stores, also and last andrographis andrographis is
an anti viral herb that is. Potent make sure you're
on those vites that Doctor brockmann, Mentioned VITAMIN, c VITAMIN A,
d and. Zinc you be good to.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
Go, there you, go great. Recommendations Doctor bob will be

multiple brand brands for radioactive. Shrimp, yes you heard that,
right glowing. Crustaceans they're hitting store, shelves and this isn't
exactly the glow up you're seeing On. Instagram if you've
eaten shrimp, recently you'll want to listen very. Carefully here's

(32:02):
the recall. Breakdown it's a contaminant known as celsium one thirty.
Seven it's a radioactive byproduct link to cancer IN dna.
Damage the brands affected Or, Sandbar Best, Yet Arctic, Shores
Great American, Seafood, Imports First, street and Even Walmart's Great value.

(32:23):
Brand these have been sold In, Kroger's, Walmarts, instacarts and
distributors across nineteen. States the timeframe for this the shrimp
was sold Between july seventeenth And august eighth of this.
Year and this matters because of the radiation. Risk it
accumulates in tissues in amidst radiation over, time even at low,

(32:46):
levels so why gamble with? This and the contamination came From,
indonesia which has no nuclear plants or, testing so speculation
of points to travel throughout ocean currents could be processing
or packaging. Contamination THE fda it claims no acute, risk
But i'm gonna tell you chronic. Exposure that's the slow burn.

(33:08):
Disaster so WHAT i want you to do is check
your freezer look for the lot numbers that are. Recalled
you can find the full list AT fda dot. Gov
you may consider ditching that imported mystery seafood and opt
for more wild caught or local shrimp and load up
on radio protective foods like garlic or supplementation, wise you

(33:28):
can use kyolic aged garlic. Extract it's clinically proven to
combat oxidative. Stress miso soup is a good choice, here
or any oxidant rich berries like blueberries and elderberries like
Doctor bob just. Mentioned and if your shrimp they light
up under black, light that's not, gourmet it's gamma. Ray Doctor.

Speaker 4 (33:48):
BOB M, Yeah caesium is a very bad substance that
once in your, body it may never, leave and it
may be one of the most poltent free, radical a
hydroxyl free radical that basically tears up all tissues in your.
Body i'm not a fan of shrimp to begin with

(34:09):
because of the carrying of, mercury which most crustaceans. Do
there's mercury contamination in. There you've got people who are
eating shrimp that don't clean out that little black trail
on the top of the, shrimp which happens to be
Pop So i'm not a fan of shrimp to begin,

(34:30):
with but when you light them up with these caesium
number some, radiation you're really asking for big time.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
Trouble all, Right well that's our product recall this, Week Doctor.
Bob before the, BREAK i think we got time for
one more. Question we're gonna get To brad From Knoxville
martin and Doctor.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
Brockman my name Is, brad calling in From, Knoxville. Tennessee
i've been an avid listener since Late december twenty, eleven
and here's my. QUESTION i, well here's the. BACKGROUND i
got diagnosed with a umbilical hernia use of an, ultrasound

(35:15):
and my nurse practitioner noticed that my belly button was
protruding out more than, normal so she's skinned me for
an ultrasound and that's What i've been. Diagnosed with online
research as well as doctor's, offices they're saying that that's
usually that surgery is only remedy for. That it's a

(35:36):
three point three centimeter tear or whole, opening whatever you
would call. It And i've been told to stop doing
any ad. Exercises what alternative DO i have other than
surgery if there is any to remit this, problem AND
i maybe that's.

Speaker 3 (35:56):
It thank you all, right Brad, Well first of thank
you for being a loyal listener since twenty. Eleven that's.
Incredible we appreciate. You i'm gonna get Doctor bob's opinion on,
this But i'm just gonna give you with a few
quick suggestions that abdominal support garments you want to avoid
the aggravators like abdominal, exercises are heavy, lifting and then

(36:16):
maybe even consider chiropractic commanual. Therapy sometimes there's chiropractors that
specialize in removing that tension along the abdominal.

Speaker 4 (36:23):
Wall and Doctor, bob, yeah he is a legacy Doctor
Bob martin's show. Listener, brent thank you so much for,
that my. Friend good to hear your. Voice first of,
all when you have abdominal chairs like. That, unfortunately surgery
may be required on this one because it's so hard
to isolate that. Area we used to try. Horses they

(36:44):
don't work on. This you're going to probably need a
surgical intervention on, this my. Friend And i'm sorry to say,
that but that's the way to.

Speaker 3 (36:50):
Go all, right we'll be right back with your health
mystery of the. Week you're listening to The Doctor Bob Martin.

Speaker 6 (36:56):
SHOW i must stay conscious.

Speaker 5 (37:04):
The, case.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
SO i call on, angels listen a welcome. Back you're
listening to The Doctor Bob Martin. Show we, hope we
hope that you enjoyed today's. Episode we just got a
short health mystery of the, week and then we're gonna

(37:30):
gonna go ahead and. Exit we hope uh again to
hear you Next. Uh come back next week and we'll
do it. Again so let's go ahead and get to
our health mystery of the. Week all, right, folks listen
to this today's health. Mystery sounds like sci, fi but it's.
Real scientists are triggering natural tooth regrowth in. Adults that's.

(37:53):
Right your dentist may soon, say lose a, tooth let's
grow you a new. One here's the. Breakthrough japanese researchers
DISCOVERED usag. One it's a protein that blocks tooth growth after,
adulthood but by inhibiting, it they've awakened dormant stem, cells
making mice and ferrets grow fully functional new. Teeth human

(38:14):
trials begin next. Year it could replace costly implants or,
dansures and it could improve oral health because poor oral
health link is to heart disease. Diabetes BUT i also
suggest decreasing sugar intake if you're losing. Teeth proves that
our bodies they have this untapped regenda of. Power but

(38:34):
the mystery here it still remains what are the side?
Effects what else DOES usag one control and the? Accessibilities
will big pharma get their hands on? This, so Doctor,
bob if this, works the tooth fairy might get laid,
off and after, Inflation i'll be the first to give
her a. Break at my, house there's been a lot
of teeth the loss of my. House so the bottom, line,

(38:55):
well we care and we wait for this dental. Revolution
take care of your own, chompers brush with spry, toothpaste,
floss and eat real food for gum. Health but mark my,
words tooth regeneration will change dental care, Forever Doctor, bob
what your thoughts on?

Speaker 4 (39:10):
This, yes it, will And i'm glad to hear about.
It But i'll tell you, WHAT i would have had
a lot less of drilling and filling on my teeth
HAD i known growing up as a child that The
sprie Dental defense system was available that IF i imparted
xylotol into my oral cavity through my toothpaste and xylotol

(39:31):
through mouthwash and mints in The sprie dental, DEFENSE i
would have put my dentist in my case out of
business because there wouldn't have been the cavities because, germs
as In streptococcus, mutants which is the bacteria or the
germ that's in the oral. Cavity it's the acidity that

(39:53):
comes from that germ that drills holes in your. Teeth
and when you put the dental fence system in there
with the spray and the, xylotol they leave the area
and the microbiome of the oral cavity becomes whole and healthy.
Again so there's no mystery behind. That the only mystery
is how do we get the teeth that are degenerating

(40:15):
to regenerate, WELL i mean the combination maybe of THE
spry plus the new innovations that are going On Doctor.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
Brockman, yeah stem. Cells it's a fascinating. THING i really
think it's the new frontier which we of course we've
been using stem cells and other regenta therapies in practice
for quite some time. Here but you know, again talking
about this this leg length your. Worth it's not measured in.
Inches SO i want to leave you with this, love
your body strengthened through proper, nutrition, exercise and never let

(40:42):
anyone convince you about self license and self. Improvement this
