(02:10):
about today, starting right off here, how to live long
and prosper how to be healthy and alive while you're
feeling good and extending your lifespan, not just you know, longevity,
but how you feel your quality of life, which many
(02:31):
experts say is probably the most important thing for us.
It just so happens that a very famous person just
turned ninety five years young.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
It is still going now. I'm not gonna tell you
the name of this person.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
I'm just gonna give you a little hint about this
person and what he has been able to accomplish during
his life.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
He is an actor, he is a movie producer.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
And just a little bit of trivia to kind of
give you some hints of who it is, and then
we'll talk about his secrets too.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Longevity.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
How has he been able to get to age ninety
five and stay healthy and stay working physically and mentally.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
You should know this.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
We're gonna give it up to you because he gave
it up to us, and so you might recall names
of movies he's been involved in. Let's see if you
can guess his name, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,
in the Line of Fire, The Bridges of Madison County,
(03:36):
The Outlaw Josie Wales, Dirty Harry, and if you don't
figure it out by now, his name, this ninety five
year young person who's still going strong, which we're gonna
be talking about his secrets, don't go anywhere. Let me
just give you a little bit of how I was
initially introduced to this actor when I was growing up.
(03:56):
I still have that theme music in my head like
an earworm. Here we go going rolling.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Oh the steams are swollen head?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Who wish seeing my can was by my side?
Speaker 5 (04:21):
All things I'm missing, kissing at the end of my.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Rod, those doggies rolling, I love it him.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Well, he's still rolling, because when you stop rolling, you rust,
and when you rust, you're gone. And you when you're
pushing up daisies, you don't want that. You don't want
it prematurely, that's for sure. And of course we all
know by now, those of us who understand that music
in the movies he has been involved in, and now
he's producing movies.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Clint Eastwood.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Clint Eastwood is ninety five years young. I've got people
that I know that tell me they're over the hill
at forty. They really are feeling it, mostly because they
didn't take care of their bodies. They didn't listen to
or find a health care practitioner. Oh, we all have
(05:16):
sick care practitioners, people who when we get sick, we
go there and try to get symptomatic relief, but we
don't really find out what the cause of the problem is,
how we got there in the first place. There's no
learning curve there as it relates to conventional medicine.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
But this show is all about just the opposite. This
show is the antenthesis of that idea.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Let's talk about Clint Eastwood's secret to good health and
longevity at ninety five years young. And you know what
his secrets are almost like totally free to you. Hollywood legend,
Clint Eastwood has reached the remarkable age of ninety five
years young, but you'd never guess it, especially with his activity,
(05:59):
with his prizingly youthful look and energy to match.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
You've seen him on television lately. I mean, the guy's amazing.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Mister Eastwood's longevity strategy is very simple, ladies and gentlemen,
write it down on your hand.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Well, he starts with meditation, meditation.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Now you think a big tough guy like that meditating
Clint Eastwood?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
What?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
He also eats a very low fat diet, which means
he eats a plant based diet mostly which could be
anything from the Mediterranean diet to Asian diets which are
full of plants, less fat, less meat, less sugar. Also,
he mixes it up with low impact exercise, so a
(06:44):
combination of meditation, which means stress reduction. Because remember about
eighty percent of every doctor's visit is associated with some
stress factor, meaning stress is blowing your immune system up
or stress is hurting your digestive system, or your hormone system,
or your joints. It's involved, and he knew it early on.
Somebody taught him this, So perhaps you should take a
(07:06):
look at that yourself in your own life. The actor's
health wake up call and journey toward personal wellness began
when his father passed away to a young age from
cardiovascular disease heart disease. Mister Eastwood, who recently directed and
produced a movie last year at age ninety five, realized
(07:28):
then a healthy body is a crucial component for a
clear mind and a long life, and he adopted an
unwavering dedication to his health now. The celebrity biographer Sean Levy,
author of the book Clint, the Man and the Movies,
noted that Eastwood's most prized wellness strategy is his ability
(07:53):
to manage stress, any form of stress, through meditation. Let's
face it, there's a lot of different forms of meditation.
He's got a special flavor. He likes transcendental medic meditation,
but it can be any form of meditation. He has
followed the practice since in nineteen sevent He's meditating twice
a day every day, even while working as an actor
(08:13):
on movie sets and directing movies, and especially while he's working.
He wrote for air Mail, all this while playing the
Man with No Name and Dirty Harry and other such
avatars of bloodshed. I mean, here he's out there going crazy,
(08:38):
acting tough, hurting things and breaking things, and yet he's
in his trailer a couple times a.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Day going om om.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I didn't know this, And it's free. You can do
this yourself. It's not hard to learn. The biographer Levy
called Eastwood a man of contradictions, as his packed movies
and tough around the edges characters juxtaposed with his health
focused man meditating in between takes. Transcendental meditation is a
(09:10):
form of meditation that involves silently repeating a personalized mantra,
like the one that I said. Oh, you've seen people
doing that and they got two fingers touching. They're sitting
in a squat position, zoning out, just washing away their stress.
It works to dissolve stress. You get access to this
(09:32):
relaxation response. Once you get there, you kind of forget
all the other stuff that's just tearing you down. All
the stress could be financial, it to be social, it
could be a relationship problem. We have it coming out
as twenty four to seven. Now, if you allow it
to absorb into your body and its just eating you away,
it'll tear your health down. Mister Eastwood, Clint Eastwood knew
(09:52):
this early on, and he said, I got to find
a way to rebuke that, and that's when he found
meditation can too. There's different ways to reduce stress and anxiety.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Believe me, there are.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Of course, he also has a diet that is full
of greens and uses organic foods when possible, and so
that's something you might want to look into.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
The maybe get a hold of a Blue Zone book.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
This is a specific lifestyle habit that has been shown
around the world to extend longevity to people that are
becoming centenarians and super centenarians and octagenetarians and all of that.
An adopted diet, maybe an Asian diet or a Mediterranean diet,
anything but the standard American diet, which is killing people
(10:42):
prematurely one bite at a time with your fork and spoon,
priests fat, too much sugar, too many processed foods, all
of that the stuff that doctor Tony o'donald and doctor
Adam Brockman we're talking about last hour we'll be right
now with our special guest. Stay tuned gets the Doctor
Bob Martin.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Show, What's Wrong with Hin, What's Wrong within, What's wrong
with in content as.
Speaker 6 (11:16):
It's time to get.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
The team all right to healthy.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I'm very happy welcome or welcome back to this hour
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Thank you so very much
for tuning into the program. Doctor Adam Brockman, co host
of the show and executive producer. He'll be He'll be
buying a little bit later in the show. He's got
some very very important information to share with this share
with us today health related information. He's also going to
(11:42):
be delivering the health alternative of the Week, Health Outrage
of the Week. He's got a product recall to talk about,
and the health mystery. Plus we're going to take your
phone calls and questions that you're sending in through the
Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller hotline at eight hundred six
zero six eight eight two to two. That's eight hundred
(12:04):
six zero six eighty eight twenty two or my website
at doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor
d Octo R Bob dot com. Well, you know, I
respect and appreciate people who stand the line and hold
(12:24):
their position when they know their position is right and
their position is righteous.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
And I got to tell you that.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
I'm going to introduce you to a special guest that
I have known for the good part of twenty five years,
a gentleman who has probably singularly helped more people with
their health. And we'll get into how that occurs in
just a little bit. But when a person knows that
(12:52):
they're doing something to help humanity in the in terms
of health and wellness, what could be a higher calling,
I ask you, And they stick to their guns. And
when somebody comes along that tries to put them down,
tries to bully them, tries to put them out of business,
tries to limit them from getting their messaging out, and
(13:16):
you either have one or two choices. You can fold
the tent and run like hell, excuse the vernacular, or
you can stand your ground and say no, this is
wrong what you're doing, and I'm going to find a
way to prevail. And that's what my special guest has
done and is doing, and has been battling against the
(13:38):
forces that would otherwise have you not learning about health
and wellness in particular areas of the human body, which
we're going to get into. His name is Nathan Jones.
Nathan Jones is the CEO and founder of Clear Ink.
Now you may have you may recogniz is that name
(14:00):
Clear Inc. Spelled x l ear.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
The X in Clear stands for xylatol. Clear Inc.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Is the leading health products company based in American Fork,
Utah that produces and distributes xylotol based nasal sprays, toothpaste, mouthwashes,
and other oral products. Clear was founded in the year
two thousand by Nathan Jones, CEO, who started the company
after studying at university. Clear's products are known for their
(14:29):
use of xylotol, a plant based ingredient known for its antibacterial,
anti viral, anti plaque, and anti cavity properties. And the
reason I've asked Nathan Jones to join me on the
program today is that he is in the midst of.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Taking on the FTC.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
You may recognize those letters, and we'll get into what
they mean here momentarily, but I want you to listen
very closely to the battle that he's been involved in
for some time now and where it currently sits. With that,
let us welcome Nathan Jones to the doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Good day to you, Nathan, Well, good day to you,
and thank you for having me.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
By the way, we're going to talk about the fact
that your company's been in business now for twenty five years.
Happy anniversary, by the way, on that that's monumental in
and of itself.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
But I want to get back to the FTC.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Let's begin with the basics, if we can. Nathan, what
are the initials FTC stand for, and what is their
designated function in government?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Within the US.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
SEC stands for the Federal Trade Commission, and what they
were tasked to do when they were formed was to
make sure that companies or people selling products aren't lying
about what is in their products. You know, making sure
that if this says you have a thousand milligrams of vitam,
and see it has a thousand milligrams of vitam, and
(16:05):
see that if it has ilatol, that it has ilatol.
It's to make sure that you're not lying about what
your products are, and you know, to make sure that
you're not selling the proverbial snake oil thing.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Excellent, excellent and very important, very necessary governmental oversight to
keep the bad actors out of ripping off the public.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
I'm all for that. So what's the big deal?
Speaker 3 (16:33):
I mean, when and why did the FTC file a
lawsuit against your company, Clear Inc.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
They filed a lawsuit, Well, they sent us a warning
letter in July of twenty twenty and then they suit
us in October of twenty twenty one. And what they
suit us for was they they claimed that we were
making false and misleading statements about our nasal spray, our
(17:04):
xylotol nasal spray that's been on the market now for
twenty five years and its ability to be part of
a layered defense against COVID, and what we had, the
studies that we had backing that up were the same
studies that we've been using for at that point twenty
something years on how xylotol blocks bacteria from adhering to
(17:29):
the tissue and how that's going to reduce respiratory pathogens
from actually getting into your body. If you can block
them and wash them out in your nose, then obviously
you're not going to get sick as often. And we
had those same studies that were done at the University
of Tennessee in early twenty twenty and you know, so
we had the same studies, and so we were sharing
(17:49):
those studies and we weren't saying it would prevent COVID.
What we were saying is xylotol blocks stars COVID two
from adhering to airway tissue.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Okay, And that sounds really good on its face.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
The FTC, the Federal Trade Commission, they they are the
oversight to the gateway into the marketplace for various products,
including yours and many others in the nutritional or nutraceutical industry.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
So you know, if they.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Were in if they had in their hands the scientific
information that you had gathered and others had gathered on
the efficacy and the safety of xylotol and putting it
into products that consumers use, what was the problem. Why
Why did they Why did they send you the nasty
(18:46):
letters threatening to.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
You know, hurt your company. Why.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Well, when they sent the morning letter, you know, we
got on the phone with him and we had a
had a rather robust discussion, and they came back and said,
you can't say this because the University of Tennessee the
study that they did, they did it on very kidney
monkey tissue, which is the industry standard. That's what that's
what the pharmaceutical industry does as a standard, and that's
(19:17):
what's accepted. And they said, well, that's not good enough
for us. You have to go and redo that, and
you have to do it on human airway tissue. And
even when we went and did it on human airway tissue,
which we then went and did, and we did it
with RSD virus, we did it with H five and
one H one N one, We did it with stars
COVID two of the Delta stree, and we showed that
xylatal blocked all of those viruses from adhering to human
(19:41):
airway tissue. There's some other viruses that we tested, rhinovirus.
It does not block rhinovirus, so it doesn't work for everything.
But when we discussed that study with the FTC, the
FTC actually said, well, you can say it about rhinovirus,
you can say about H one N one, you can
say it about all these other ones, but you cannot
say it about stars covid two. At at that point,
I'm just like this guy. These guys don't make any
(20:03):
sense at all.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I see, well all right, yeah, and I'm thinking to myself, well,
maybe what they were thinking, I don't know, you will
have you answer this when we come back from this
break which is coming up here. Maybe they just didn't
believe you because you know, some of these studies that
occur out there, I mean, are bought and paid for
in Cameroon, you know, Africa, and they come back in
(20:29):
the United States. Oh, we have this study and it
showed this and the other to prove that our product
is you know, can put hair on a cue ball
and make people jump over mountains with a one single bound,
So buy it. Maybe they just didn't believe the source
of your studies. Let's find out when we come back
from this break where those studies were done show incredibility
(20:51):
of xylotol being in a nasal sprit spray as a
layer of protection against viral infections, including COVID nineteenth.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
We'll be right back. Are you waiting for the right excuse?
Speaker 6 (21:03):
Are you waiting for sight and sees?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Why are you waiting?
Speaker 4 (21:07):
The time is spread type?
Speaker 7 (21:25):
What are you in?
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Well, you're happen to be tuned into the largest and
longest airing at the radio health talk show in America.
Bar nun The second place is so far behind you
can't even see him back there, but we are large
and growing thanks to you, and we so appreciate you
tuning into the program today, and a special thank you
to our veteran listeners who continue to spread the good
(21:50):
word about health and wellness and becoming your own best
doctor most of the time by tuning into this radio show,
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. And the best way to
refer to this program is to tell them how to
get to it on their radio. Shot down the call
owners of the radio station you're listening to, the frequency
(22:11):
on the dial, because we're on both AM and FM stations.
The frequency maybe it's twelve forty or eight thirty, whatever
it is. Write that down and the time of the
day the show is airing in your market, and then
pass that on to as many people as you want
to help with their most precious possession, their health.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
It's that simple, and.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
We appreciate you doing that and they will appreciate you too.
All Right, we're talking about the onslaught of governmental oversight
and how they can be a positive or a negative.
We're talking about the FTC, the Federal Trade Commission, and
(22:54):
how they are tasked with keeping fraudulent activity from entering
into the marketplace and potentially harming American citizens, and they
are also tasked with keeping information accurate. Unfortunately, up until recently,
they have been out of control in my opinion and
(23:14):
the opinion of many other healthcare providers and nutraceutical purveyors.
And we have with us Nathan Jones, who is the
CEO and founder of one such company called Clear Inc
x l ear, the makers of Find nasal.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Care products and oral care products.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
We've been talking about them on this radio show because
the doctor Bob Martin family and many of my other colleagues,
including doctor Adam Brockman. We use the Spry Spry dental
defense system because we don't want any more intervention from
a dentist than we have to have other than maybe
once in a while getting a deep cleaning or just
(23:58):
a checkup. We don't want drills and phil and root
canals and extractions, and that's why we use the spride
handle defense system. We also don't want to get sick,
and we know that about eighty to ninety percent of
all illness in terms of viruses entering our body, whether
it's the common cold or COVID or anything else, goes
through the nasal cavity through our nostrils. So therefore, if
(24:19):
we keep our noses clean and healthy, we won't be
subjected to breaking down as often. It lowers the risk,
and if we get do get sick, it brings us
around faster. Our special guest helped to invent those systems
and we're glad to have.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Him with us now.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Before we took the break, Nathan Jones, we were talking
about how the FTC didn't like what your company was doing,
especially in the area of making claims that using the
clear x l ear nasal spray provided another layer of
protection against COVID during the time when COVID was really
(24:59):
ramp up in you know, the early twenty twenties, and
what I want to find out from you as I
went into the break, we were talking about maybe they
just mistrusted you because some of these studies coming out
of other countries, like I mentioned one Cameroon, Cameroon, Africa, which.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
It seems like a lot of them come out of.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Maybe they just didn't trust the study in Kentucky, or
maybe they didn't trust the information they were getting from
the pulmonologists that I happened to know that you used
a very credible, very renowned pulmonalist polmonologist MD in the.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
State of Florida.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
So what was their problem with substantiation and where did
that go?
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Well?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I don't really understand to this day what their problem
with the substantiation was, because the FTC, as long as
you have studies backing up what you were claiming, that
was historically what they had required from companies. What we
found out during the depth positions was all of the studies,
like dozens and dozens of studies that we sent them,
(26:06):
nobody that we talked to had ever actually opened the
studies and read them. They told us that it wasn't
in the news, so it couldn't possibly be true. Oh my,
Now is their excuse for not happening to even open
and read the studies that we sent them?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Wow?
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Incredible. So maybe maybe.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
They're ignoring the studies that they didn't even read them
to ignore them.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Well, maybe the people that are in the FTC, the
men and women that are they're the gateway, uh, the
persons that are tasked with protecting the plug, Maybe they're
infected by the same bug as people done at the FDA,
where we learned that the FDA. You know, when those people,
(26:52):
the doctors, mds, PhDs, when they leave their their jobs
at the FDA, they they suddenly find them in a
position at some big pharmaceutical company in research and development,
or a CEO or a CFO or something like that.
Maybe that's you know, I hate to cast aspersions here,
but it is could that be in play here?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I don't I can't really read their mind, and so
I don't know the answer to that. But I do
find it interesting that the the lawyer that worked for
the FTC that spearheaded this lawsuit actually quit the FTC
and he now works for the law firm that represents
the Natural Products Association.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Interesting, very interesting there he went over from the dark side.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
It sounds like, well, I think I think that, you know,
I think he I think what he did is he
drafted all these rules and then he went over to
the Natural Products Association so that he could advise companies
on how to comply with the rules that he drafted.
My stance is that the rules he drafted are ridiculous.
(28:02):
They're absurd, they are unconstitutional, and they're arbitrary to the
point of ridiculousness. Like I said, what the SEC is
trying to require of supplement companies is far and above
what the FDA requires for pharmaceutical companies, and maybe it's absurd.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yeah, maybe he went over to the other side because
he found his conscience. He found he didn't sleep at
night because he knew the stuff that he was doing,
attacking small companies based on this government overreach, was not right.
And maybe you, in the process of sending him this
stuff schooled him enough where he goes, you know what,
this isn't right, and I'm going to fix it, and
this is how I'm going to fix it.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Maybe that's what's going on here, Nate. Let's hope. Huh,
let's just hope.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Give him the benefit of the doubt. But I'm not
holding my breath.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
Ye're not holding your breath. Neither might all right.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
So on February February this year, the Department of Adjustice,
acting on behalf of the FTC, they dropped their lawsuit
against you. Now, I'm going to ask you, after we
take this next break, Nate, to come back and answer
that question. The FTC was dogging you. They were like
(29:16):
ready to put you out of business. They were ready
to seize your products at the back end of the store.
Whatever they do. They come in sometimes like that in
the dark of night and they shut things down. They
don't like, especially when people are ignoring their warning letters
and they're thumbing their nose at them. Well, I want
(29:36):
to find out from you when we come back from
this break why they suddenly suddenly dropped their lawsuit against Clear,
you in your company and why. We'll get to that momentarily.
Ladies and gentlemen, stand by for that answer. You were
tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show and we'll be
(29:56):
right back.
Speaker 7 (30:02):
Sabo number Simon.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
They have one never single.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
You're tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
The headline we're talking about right here right now is
Clear x l e a r. Incorporated, the makers of
oral care and nasal spray products, sues the Federal Trade
Commission FTC for unlawful scientific censorship. We'll get into that momentarily.
(30:57):
We have with us the CEO and founder of Clear.
His name is Nathan Jones, and you can find out
more about Clear and what they're doing over on their
website at Clear x L e r dot com. If
you've been listening to this radio show for any amount
of time over the years, and I'm talking about twenty
(31:17):
plus years. We've been on the air in syndication for
almost thirty years, and I think Clear Inc. Has been
a proud sponsor of the Doctor Bob Martin's Show.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
For well most of that.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
You can find out more about what they're doing with
their excellent nasal care products and their oral care products,
Spry Dental Defense System and the Clear x L e
AR nasal sprays. You more about them and what they
have to offer in the marketplace. Clear retailers include Walgreens,
Right Aid, Target, Kroger, Sprouts, Natural Grocers, and most natural
(31:54):
product retailers nationwide. Clear online retailers you can find them
at Amazon, on I Herb, Lucky Vitamins, and Vita cost
or you can just simply go to their website at
Clear x L e a r dot com and find
out more about their offerings, especially if you want your
oral cavity to be as healthy as.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
It can possibly be.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
It's what doctor Bob Martin and doctor Adam Brockman and
our families do and have done for some time. And
if you want to know how to keep from getting sick,
especially when you're traveling, especially because we're going to end
the summer in about a month or so and back
to school and the little munchkins, your kids, your grandkids
getting sick, you know, boogers and then the stuff flying
(32:38):
and bringing it back home to the parents and the grandparents.
If you want to avoid that dance again, you'll want
to keep your nose clean. That's how germs entered the body.
And that's what the Clear Nasal Spray family is all about.
I do not go anywhere, I do not travel anywhere
without my Clear Rescue nasal spray. We'll get into that
a little bit, but back to the conversation with Nathan Jones,
(33:02):
CEO of Clear.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Now, Nathan, you are now.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Instead of taking the blows from the FTC in terms
of their threatening and letters and censure all that, you're
now suing them.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Why is that.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
So?
Speaker 2 (33:22):
The FTC dropped their lawsuit. They called us and said, hey,
you know, we're going to drop the lawsuit in March.
I think it was March tenth, right around there. And
I think that the reason why they were doing that
is because they understood and knew that they their chances
of losing were huge. Like I mean, I would have
(33:43):
said ninety nine percent, but let's go with ninety percent.
And if they pushed that through all the way to
a court case, then they would have a judgment against
the FTC that would limit them and how they could
react and go after other companies in the future. And
so that's the huge int enitor for them to drop
the case. What we're doing is we are actually suing
(34:05):
the FTC, not because we expect to get money, but
because what we want is we want a judge to
come out and interpret the law that they were suing
us under. Because the law that they sued us under
said that companies cannot make false or misleading statements. And
in the four years that they were suing this, at
no point did they show us a single statement that
(34:27):
we made that was false or misleading. And you know,
I think that they just understood they weren't going to
be able to succeed in court. We want them to
build back. We want the court to actually give clarity
as to what the FTC can and can't require as
far as substantiation. And I think this is an important
case for the for the entire industry, not just the
(34:50):
supplement industry, but also the cosmetic and the pharmaceutical industry.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
I love working with principled and dedicated companies. Our special
guest is CEO and founder of Clear Inc. X L
e a r Inc, Makers of Find nasal spray products
and oral care products at Clear x L e r
dot com.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
I'll tell you what.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Most people would have folded tent and went running into
the another because they were afraid. Let's face it, FTC
has all the money that comes to bear because taxpayers
are paying to chase people that they don't like or
they believe are the bad ombres out there. And you
stood your ground because you knew you were right, and
(35:34):
most people don't. I have to give you credit for
that because obviously you were holding all the aces and
they weren't, and they finally realized your resolve. And for that,
I very much respect what you're doing because you are
not only protecting your company and the consumers who are
relying on Clear nasal sprays to keep healthy and the
spry dental defense system, but it's also, like you said,
(35:56):
it's going to send a message and set a precedence.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
For other nutritutical call but other nu staciutical companies.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
Nathan Jones ought to be sending you money to help
with the the legal expenses that you have obviously probably
to the millions have spent trying to defend yourself against
Goliath here, you know, attacking you, which I absolutely so
much so respect. Now we're going to take a break
(36:25):
and I want to in the last three minutes or so, Nathan,
I want to get into you know, just what the
Clear company is.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
What do you do?
Speaker 3 (36:34):
I mean, what is the spry dndal defense system in
a capsule if you can do that? And why why
why did you invent the Clear nasal sprays? And I
know that's a long answer, but I know you can
encapsulate it so our audience can understand the benefits of them.
And why you have been such a long term sponsor
of the Doctor Bob Martin's Show.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
We'll get to that right after this. Ladies and gentlements,
stay with us.
Speaker 6 (36:58):
This is much side. Take that money side, then.
Speaker 7 (37:09):
Not do Lisson.
Speaker 3 (37:13):
Health. It's the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Welcome, We welcome
back to the program. Thank you so much for tuning
into the program. Remember our toll free number into the
show should you want to ask a health question or
make a health related comment is eight hundred six zero
six eight eight two to two eight hundred six zero
six eighty eight twenty two or the website doctor bob
dot com spelling out.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
The word doctor.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
We have with us the CEO and founder of clear Ink,
makers of the science based, safe and effective nasal sprays.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
And oral hygiene products.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
They just happen to be celebrating twenty five years in business,
which means they have to be doing something real right
and helping millions of people with their health, their oral
health and their nasal health, which leads to helping them
with their entire body, because a lot of these problems
that we have start in the oral cavity or the
(38:06):
nasal cavity, and they're providing products for consumers that shut
that down to help protect them.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
So, Nathan, just.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
In a couple of minutes we have left, let's get
into just the two different product categories, the oral health
products that would be Spry sp r y. Can you
give us a sort of overview of the Spry Dental
Defense system products.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
It's a toothpaste, mouth wash, chewing the mints, candy, stuff
like that. But the original research has been going on
for well over five decades has shown that using xylotol
products actually changes the microbiome in your mouth. You know,
most dental professionals, they'll talk about fluoride, fluoride and when
you get hired of fluorid, more fluoride and brush and slots.
(38:52):
But fluoride does not at any point have they ever
even claimed it does not address the bacterial infect in
your mouth that causes tooth decake. Using flour it is
the perfect example of treating the symptom instead of and
leaving the infection. And what zylientol does is it actually
gets rid of the kyiogenic the bacteria that create the acid,
(39:14):
and so you're actually treating the disease, not the symptoms.
Speaker 4 (39:18):
Excellent.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
So the big body of science behind that is use
alotol oral care products like Spry get rid of the cappys.
Speaker 4 (39:26):
All right, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
When you go to the store, any store, you're looking
for Spry s p r Y dental defense system. It's
what doctor Adam Brockman and doctor Bob Martin and our
families and our colleagues use. Why we don't want to
have a drill in our mouth or a fill, or
a tooth extraction or a root canal anymore, pat it up,
we can't take it anymore. Well, that's fantastic. And also
(39:49):
the Clear nasal sprays. We've got one minute left here.
The Clear nasal spraise, what are they about?
Speaker 6 (39:54):
Heyvid?
Speaker 2 (39:56):
It's most of the bacteria and viruses that enter our
body 'st majority of reasons why people go see your
primary characterisation our upper roof story issues. Sin xylot hal
again blocks bacteria viruses from hearing, facilitating your body to
wash nout and you just don't get sick.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
Fantastic prevention. I love it, and this stuff works, ladies
and john to trust me.

ear dot com or retailers like Walgreens, Right Aid, Target, Kroger, Sprouts,

(02:10):
about today, starting right off here, how to live long
and prosper how to be healthy and alive while you're
feeling good and extending your lifespan, not just you know, longevity,
but how you feel your quality of life, which many
(02:31):
experts say is probably the most important thing for us.
It just so happens that a very famous person just
turned ninety five years young.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
It is still going now. I'm not gonna tell you
the name of this person.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
I'm just gonna give you a little hint about this
person and what he has been able to accomplish during
his life.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
He is an actor, he is a movie producer.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
And just a little bit of trivia to kind of
give you some hints of who it is, and then
we'll talk about his secrets too.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Longevity.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
How has he been able to get to age ninety
five and stay healthy and stay working physically and mentally.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
You should know this.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
We're gonna give it up to you because he gave
it up to us, and so you might recall names
of movies he's been involved in. Let's see if you
can guess his name, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,
in the Line of Fire, The Bridges of Madison County,
(03:36):
The Outlaw Josie Wales, Dirty Harry, and if you don't
figure it out by now, his name, this ninety five
year young person who's still going strong, which we're gonna
be talking about his secrets, don't go anywhere. Let me
just give you a little bit of how I was
initially introduced to this actor when I was growing up.
(03:56):
I still have that theme music in my head like
an earworm. Here we go going rolling.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Oh the steams are swollen head?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Who wish seeing my can was by my side?
Speaker 5 (04:21):
All things I'm missing, kissing at the end of my.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Rod, those doggies rolling, I love it him.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Well, he's still rolling, because when you stop rolling, you rust,
and when you rust, you're gone. And you when you're
pushing up daisies, you don't want that. You don't want
it prematurely, that's for sure. And of course we all
know by now, those of us who understand that music
in the movies he has been involved in, and now
he's producing movies.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Clint Eastwood.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Clint Eastwood is ninety five years young. I've got people
that I know that tell me they're over the hill
at forty. They really are feeling it, mostly because they
didn't take care of their bodies. They didn't listen to
or find a health care practitioner. Oh, we all have
(05:16):
sick care practitioners, people who when we get sick, we
go there and try to get symptomatic relief, but we
don't really find out what the cause of the problem is,
how we got there in the first place. There's no
learning curve there as it relates to conventional medicine.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
But this show is all about just the opposite. This
show is the antenthesis of that idea.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Let's talk about Clint Eastwood's secret to good health and
longevity at ninety five years young. And you know what
his secrets are almost like totally free to you. Hollywood legend,
Clint Eastwood has reached the remarkable age of ninety five
years young, but you'd never guess it, especially with his activity,
(05:59):
with his prizingly youthful look and energy to match.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
You've seen him on television lately. I mean, the guy's amazing.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Mister Eastwood's longevity strategy is very simple, ladies and gentlemen,
write it down on your hand.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Well, he starts with meditation, meditation.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Now you think a big tough guy like that meditating
Clint Eastwood?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
What?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
He also eats a very low fat diet, which means
he eats a plant based diet mostly which could be
anything from the Mediterranean diet to Asian diets which are
full of plants, less fat, less meat, less sugar. Also,
he mixes it up with low impact exercise, so a
(06:44):
combination of meditation, which means stress reduction. Because remember about
eighty percent of every doctor's visit is associated with some
stress factor, meaning stress is blowing your immune system up
or stress is hurting your digestive system, or your hormone system,
or your joints. It's involved, and he knew it early on.
Somebody taught him this, So perhaps you should take a
(07:06):
look at that yourself in your own life. The actor's
health wake up call and journey toward personal wellness began
when his father passed away to a young age from
cardiovascular disease heart disease. Mister Eastwood, who recently directed and
produced a movie last year at age ninety five, realized
(07:28):
then a healthy body is a crucial component for a
clear mind and a long life, and he adopted an
unwavering dedication to his health now. The celebrity biographer Sean Levy,
author of the book Clint, the Man and the Movies,
noted that Eastwood's most prized wellness strategy is his ability
(07:53):
to manage stress, any form of stress, through meditation. Let's
face it, there's a lot of different forms of meditation.
He's got a special flavor. He likes transcendental medic meditation,
but it can be any form of meditation. He has
followed the practice since in nineteen sevent He's meditating twice
a day every day, even while working as an actor
(08:13):
on movie sets and directing movies, and especially while he's working.
He wrote for air Mail, all this while playing the
Man with No Name and Dirty Harry and other such
avatars of bloodshed. I mean, here he's out there going crazy,
(08:38):
acting tough, hurting things and breaking things, and yet he's
in his trailer a couple times a.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Day going om om.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I didn't know this, And it's free. You can do
this yourself. It's not hard to learn. The biographer Levy
called Eastwood a man of contradictions, as his packed movies
and tough around the edges characters juxtaposed with his health
focused man meditating in between takes. Transcendental meditation is a
(09:10):
form of meditation that involves silently repeating a personalized mantra,
like the one that I said. Oh, you've seen people
doing that and they got two fingers touching. They're sitting
in a squat position, zoning out, just washing away their stress.
It works to dissolve stress. You get access to this
(09:32):
relaxation response. Once you get there, you kind of forget
all the other stuff that's just tearing you down. All
the stress could be financial, it to be social, it
could be a relationship problem. We have it coming out
as twenty four to seven. Now, if you allow it
to absorb into your body and its just eating you away,
it'll tear your health down. Mister Eastwood, Clint Eastwood knew
(09:52):
this early on, and he said, I got to find
a way to rebuke that, and that's when he found
meditation can too. There's different ways to reduce stress and anxiety.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Believe me, there are.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Of course, he also has a diet that is full
of greens and uses organic foods when possible, and so
that's something you might want to look into.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
The maybe get a hold of a Blue Zone book.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
This is a specific lifestyle habit that has been shown
around the world to extend longevity to people that are
becoming centenarians and super centenarians and octagenetarians and all of that.
An adopted diet, maybe an Asian diet or a Mediterranean diet,
anything but the standard American diet, which is killing people
(10:42):
prematurely one bite at a time with your fork and spoon,
priests fat, too much sugar, too many processed foods, all
of that the stuff that doctor Tony o'donald and doctor
Adam Brockman we're talking about last hour we'll be right
now with our special guest. Stay tuned gets the Doctor
Bob Martin.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Show, What's Wrong with Hin, What's Wrong within, What's wrong
with in content as.
Speaker 6 (11:16):
It's time to get.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
The team all right to healthy.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I'm very happy welcome or welcome back to this hour
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Thank you so very much
for tuning into the program. Doctor Adam Brockman, co host
of the show and executive producer. He'll be He'll be
buying a little bit later in the show. He's got
some very very important information to share with this share
with us today health related information. He's also going to
(11:42):
be delivering the health alternative of the Week, Health Outrage
of the Week. He's got a product recall to talk about,
and the health mystery. Plus we're going to take your
phone calls and questions that you're sending in through the
Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller hotline at eight hundred six
zero six eight eight two to two. That's eight hundred
(12:04):
six zero six eighty eight twenty two or my website
at doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor
d Octo R Bob dot com. Well, you know, I
respect and appreciate people who stand the line and hold
(12:24):
their position when they know their position is right and
their position is righteous.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
And I got to tell you that.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
I'm going to introduce you to a special guest that
I have known for the good part of twenty five years,
a gentleman who has probably singularly helped more people with
their health. And we'll get into how that occurs in
just a little bit. But when a person knows that
(12:52):
they're doing something to help humanity in the in terms
of health and wellness, what could be a higher calling,
I ask you, And they stick to their guns. And
when somebody comes along that tries to put them down,
tries to bully them, tries to put them out of business,
tries to limit them from getting their messaging out, and
(13:16):
you either have one or two choices. You can fold
the tent and run like hell, excuse the vernacular, or
you can stand your ground and say no, this is
wrong what you're doing, and I'm going to find a
way to prevail. And that's what my special guest has
done and is doing, and has been battling against the
(13:38):
forces that would otherwise have you not learning about health
and wellness in particular areas of the human body, which
we're going to get into. His name is Nathan Jones.
Nathan Jones is the CEO and founder of Clear Ink.
Now you may have you may recogniz is that name
(14:00):
Clear Inc. Spelled x l ear.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
The X in Clear stands for xylatol. Clear Inc.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Is the leading health products company based in American Fork,
Utah that produces and distributes xylotol based nasal sprays, toothpaste, mouthwashes,
and other oral products. Clear was founded in the year
two thousand by Nathan Jones, CEO, who started the company
after studying at university. Clear's products are known for their
(14:29):
use of xylotol, a plant based ingredient known for its antibacterial,
anti viral, anti plaque, and anti cavity properties. And the
reason I've asked Nathan Jones to join me on the
program today is that he is in the midst of.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Taking on the FTC.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
You may recognize those letters, and we'll get into what
they mean here momentarily, but I want you to listen
very closely to the battle that he's been involved in
for some time now and where it currently sits. With that,
let us welcome Nathan Jones to the doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Good day to you, Nathan, Well, good day to you,
and thank you for having me.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
By the way, we're going to talk about the fact
that your company's been in business now for twenty five years.
Happy anniversary, by the way, on that that's monumental in
and of itself.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
But I want to get back to the FTC.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Let's begin with the basics, if we can. Nathan, what
are the initials FTC stand for, and what is their
designated function in government?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Within the US.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
SEC stands for the Federal Trade Commission, and what they
were tasked to do when they were formed was to
make sure that companies or people selling products aren't lying
about what is in their products. You know, making sure
that if this says you have a thousand milligrams of vitam,
and see it has a thousand milligrams of vitam, and
(16:05):
see that if it has ilatol, that it has ilatol.
It's to make sure that you're not lying about what
your products are, and you know, to make sure that
you're not selling the proverbial snake oil thing.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Excellent, excellent and very important, very necessary governmental oversight to
keep the bad actors out of ripping off the public.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
I'm all for that. So what's the big deal?
Speaker 3 (16:33):
I mean, when and why did the FTC file a
lawsuit against your company, Clear Inc.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
They filed a lawsuit, Well, they sent us a warning
letter in July of twenty twenty and then they suit
us in October of twenty twenty one. And what they
suit us for was they they claimed that we were
making false and misleading statements about our nasal spray, our
(17:04):
xylotol nasal spray that's been on the market now for
twenty five years and its ability to be part of
a layered defense against COVID, and what we had, the
studies that we had backing that up were the same
studies that we've been using for at that point twenty
something years on how xylotol blocks bacteria from adhering to
(17:29):
the tissue and how that's going to reduce respiratory pathogens
from actually getting into your body. If you can block
them and wash them out in your nose, then obviously
you're not going to get sick as often. And we
had those same studies that were done at the University
of Tennessee in early twenty twenty and you know, so
we had the same studies, and so we were sharing
(17:49):
those studies and we weren't saying it would prevent COVID.
What we were saying is xylotol blocks stars COVID two
from adhering to airway tissue.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Okay, And that sounds really good on its face.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
The FTC, the Federal Trade Commission, they they are the
oversight to the gateway into the marketplace for various products,
including yours and many others in the nutritional or nutraceutical industry.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
So you know, if they.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Were in if they had in their hands the scientific
information that you had gathered and others had gathered on
the efficacy and the safety of xylotol and putting it
into products that consumers use, what was the problem. Why
Why did they Why did they send you the nasty
(18:46):
letters threatening to.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
You know, hurt your company. Why.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Well, when they sent the morning letter, you know, we
got on the phone with him and we had a
had a rather robust discussion, and they came back and said,
you can't say this because the University of Tennessee the
study that they did, they did it on very kidney
monkey tissue, which is the industry standard. That's what that's
what the pharmaceutical industry does as a standard, and that's
(19:17):
what's accepted. And they said, well, that's not good enough
for us. You have to go and redo that, and
you have to do it on human airway tissue. And
even when we went and did it on human airway tissue,
which we then went and did, and we did it
with RSD virus, we did it with H five and
one H one N one, We did it with stars
COVID two of the Delta stree, and we showed that
xylatal blocked all of those viruses from adhering to human
(19:41):
airway tissue. There's some other viruses that we tested, rhinovirus.
It does not block rhinovirus, so it doesn't work for everything.
But when we discussed that study with the FTC, the
FTC actually said, well, you can say it about rhinovirus,
you can say about H one N one, you can
say it about all these other ones, but you cannot
say it about stars covid two. At at that point,
I'm just like this guy. These guys don't make any
(20:03):
sense at all.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I see, well all right, yeah, and I'm thinking to myself, well,
maybe what they were thinking, I don't know, you will
have you answer this when we come back from this
break which is coming up here. Maybe they just didn't
believe you because you know, some of these studies that
occur out there, I mean, are bought and paid for
in Cameroon, you know, Africa, and they come back in
(20:29):
the United States. Oh, we have this study and it
showed this and the other to prove that our product
is you know, can put hair on a cue ball
and make people jump over mountains with a one single bound,
So buy it. Maybe they just didn't believe the source
of your studies. Let's find out when we come back
from this break where those studies were done show incredibility
(20:51):
of xylotol being in a nasal sprit spray as a
layer of protection against viral infections, including COVID nineteenth.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
We'll be right back. Are you waiting for the right excuse?
Speaker 6 (21:03):
Are you waiting for sight and sees?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Why are you waiting?
Speaker 4 (21:07):
The time is spread type?
Speaker 7 (21:25):
What are you in?
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Well, you're happen to be tuned into the largest and
longest airing at the radio health talk show in America.
Bar nun The second place is so far behind you
can't even see him back there, but we are large
and growing thanks to you, and we so appreciate you
tuning into the program today, and a special thank you
to our veteran listeners who continue to spread the good
(21:50):
word about health and wellness and becoming your own best
doctor most of the time by tuning into this radio show,
the Doctor Bob Martin Show. And the best way to
refer to this program is to tell them how to
get to it on their radio. Shot down the call
owners of the radio station you're listening to, the frequency
(22:11):
on the dial, because we're on both AM and FM stations.
The frequency maybe it's twelve forty or eight thirty, whatever
it is. Write that down and the time of the
day the show is airing in your market, and then
pass that on to as many people as you want
to help with their most precious possession, their health.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
It's that simple, and.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
We appreciate you doing that and they will appreciate you too.
All Right, we're talking about the onslaught of governmental oversight
and how they can be a positive or a negative.
We're talking about the FTC, the Federal Trade Commission, and
(22:54):
how they are tasked with keeping fraudulent activity from entering
into the marketplace and potentially harming American citizens, and they
are also tasked with keeping information accurate. Unfortunately, up until recently,
they have been out of control in my opinion and
(23:14):
the opinion of many other healthcare providers and nutraceutical purveyors.
And we have with us Nathan Jones, who is the
CEO and founder of one such company called Clear Inc
x l ear, the makers of Find nasal.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Care products and oral care products.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
We've been talking about them on this radio show because
the doctor Bob Martin family and many of my other colleagues,
including doctor Adam Brockman. We use the Spry Spry dental
defense system because we don't want any more intervention from
a dentist than we have to have other than maybe
once in a while getting a deep cleaning or just
(23:58):
a checkup. We don't want drills and phil and root
canals and extractions, and that's why we use the spride
handle defense system. We also don't want to get sick,
and we know that about eighty to ninety percent of
all illness in terms of viruses entering our body, whether
it's the common cold or COVID or anything else, goes
through the nasal cavity through our nostrils. So therefore, if
(24:19):
we keep our noses clean and healthy, we won't be
subjected to breaking down as often. It lowers the risk,
and if we get do get sick, it brings us
around faster. Our special guest helped to invent those systems
and we're glad to have.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Him with us now.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Before we took the break, Nathan Jones, we were talking
about how the FTC didn't like what your company was doing,
especially in the area of making claims that using the
clear x l ear nasal spray provided another layer of
protection against COVID during the time when COVID was really
(24:59):
ramp up in you know, the early twenty twenties, and
what I want to find out from you as I
went into the break, we were talking about maybe they
just mistrusted you because some of these studies coming out
of other countries, like I mentioned one Cameroon, Cameroon, Africa, which.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
It seems like a lot of them come out of.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Maybe they just didn't trust the study in Kentucky, or
maybe they didn't trust the information they were getting from
the pulmonologists that I happened to know that you used
a very credible, very renowned pulmonalist polmonologist MD in the.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
State of Florida.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
So what was their problem with substantiation and where did
that go?
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Well?
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I don't really understand to this day what their problem
with the substantiation was, because the FTC, as long as
you have studies backing up what you were claiming, that
was historically what they had required from companies. What we
found out during the depth positions was all of the studies,
like dozens and dozens of studies that we sent them,
(26:06):
nobody that we talked to had ever actually opened the
studies and read them. They told us that it wasn't
in the news, so it couldn't possibly be true. Oh my,
Now is their excuse for not happening to even open
and read the studies that we sent them?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Wow?
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Incredible. So maybe maybe.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
They're ignoring the studies that they didn't even read them
to ignore them.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
Well, maybe the people that are in the FTC, the
men and women that are they're the gateway, uh, the
persons that are tasked with protecting the plug, Maybe they're
infected by the same bug as people done at the FDA,
where we learned that the FDA. You know, when those people,
(26:52):
the doctors, mds, PhDs, when they leave their their jobs
at the FDA, they they suddenly find them in a
position at some big pharmaceutical company in research and development,
or a CEO or a CFO or something like that.
Maybe that's you know, I hate to cast aspersions here,
but it is could that be in play here?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I don't I can't really read their mind, and so
I don't know the answer to that. But I do
find it interesting that the the lawyer that worked for
the FTC that spearheaded this lawsuit actually quit the FTC
and he now works for the law firm that represents
the Natural Products Association.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Interesting, very interesting there he went over from the dark side.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
It sounds like, well, I think I think that, you know,
I think he I think what he did is he
drafted all these rules and then he went over to
the Natural Products Association so that he could advise companies
on how to comply with the rules that he drafted.
My stance is that the rules he drafted are ridiculous.
(28:02):
They're absurd, they are unconstitutional, and they're arbitrary to the
point of ridiculousness. Like I said, what the SEC is
trying to require of supplement companies is far and above
what the FDA requires for pharmaceutical companies, and maybe it's absurd.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Yeah, maybe he went over to the other side because
he found his conscience. He found he didn't sleep at
night because he knew the stuff that he was doing,
attacking small companies based on this government overreach, was not right.
And maybe you, in the process of sending him this
stuff schooled him enough where he goes, you know what,
this isn't right, and I'm going to fix it, and
this is how I'm going to fix it.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Maybe that's what's going on here, Nate. Let's hope. Huh,
let's just hope.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Give him the benefit of the doubt. But I'm not
holding my breath.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
Ye're not holding your breath. Neither might all right.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
So on February February this year, the Department of Adjustice,
acting on behalf of the FTC, they dropped their lawsuit
against you. Now, I'm going to ask you, after we
take this next break, Nate, to come back and answer
that question. The FTC was dogging you. They were like
(29:16):
ready to put you out of business. They were ready
to seize your products at the back end of the store.
Whatever they do. They come in sometimes like that in
the dark of night and they shut things down. They
don't like, especially when people are ignoring their warning letters
and they're thumbing their nose at them. Well, I want
(29:36):
to find out from you when we come back from
this break why they suddenly suddenly dropped their lawsuit against Clear,
you in your company and why. We'll get to that momentarily.
Ladies and gentlemen, stand by for that answer. You were
tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show and we'll be
(29:56):
right back.
Speaker 7 (30:02):
Sabo number Simon.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
They have one never single.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
You're tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
The headline we're talking about right here right now is
Clear x l e a r. Incorporated, the makers of
oral care and nasal spray products, sues the Federal Trade
Commission FTC for unlawful scientific censorship. We'll get into that momentarily.
(30:57):
We have with us the CEO and founder of Clear.
His name is Nathan Jones, and you can find out
more about Clear and what they're doing over on their
website at Clear x L e r dot com. If
you've been listening to this radio show for any amount
of time over the years, and I'm talking about twenty
(31:17):
plus years. We've been on the air in syndication for
almost thirty years, and I think Clear Inc. Has been
a proud sponsor of the Doctor Bob Martin's Show.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
For well most of that.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
You can find out more about what they're doing with
their excellent nasal care products and their oral care products,
Spry Dental Defense System and the Clear x L e
AR nasal sprays. You more about them and what they
have to offer in the marketplace. Clear retailers include Walgreens,
Right Aid, Target, Kroger, Sprouts, Natural Grocers, and most natural
(31:54):
product retailers nationwide. Clear online retailers you can find them
at Amazon, on I Herb, Lucky Vitamins, and Vita cost
or you can just simply go to their website at
Clear x L e a r dot com and find
out more about their offerings, especially if you want your
oral cavity to be as healthy as.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
It can possibly be.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
It's what doctor Bob Martin and doctor Adam Brockman and
our families do and have done for some time. And
if you want to know how to keep from getting sick,
especially when you're traveling, especially because we're going to end
the summer in about a month or so and back
to school and the little munchkins, your kids, your grandkids
getting sick, you know, boogers and then the stuff flying
(32:38):
and bringing it back home to the parents and the grandparents.
If you want to avoid that dance again, you'll want
to keep your nose clean. That's how germs entered the body.
And that's what the Clear Nasal Spray family is all about.
I do not go anywhere, I do not travel anywhere
without my Clear Rescue nasal spray. We'll get into that
a little bit, but back to the conversation with Nathan Jones,
(33:02):
CEO of Clear.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Now, Nathan, you are now.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Instead of taking the blows from the FTC in terms
of their threatening and letters and censure all that, you're
now suing them.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Why is that.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
So?
Speaker 2 (33:22):
The FTC dropped their lawsuit. They called us and said, hey,
you know, we're going to drop the lawsuit in March.
I think it was March tenth, right around there. And
I think that the reason why they were doing that
is because they understood and knew that they their chances
of losing were huge. Like I mean, I would have
(33:43):
said ninety nine percent, but let's go with ninety percent.
And if they pushed that through all the way to
a court case, then they would have a judgment against
the FTC that would limit them and how they could
react and go after other companies in the future. And
so that's the huge int enitor for them to drop
the case. What we're doing is we are actually suing
(34:05):
the FTC, not because we expect to get money, but
because what we want is we want a judge to
come out and interpret the law that they were suing
us under. Because the law that they sued us under
said that companies cannot make false or misleading statements. And
in the four years that they were suing this, at
no point did they show us a single statement that
(34:27):
we made that was false or misleading. And you know,
I think that they just understood they weren't going to
be able to succeed in court. We want them to
build back. We want the court to actually give clarity
as to what the FTC can and can't require as
far as substantiation. And I think this is an important
case for the for the entire industry, not just the
(34:50):
supplement industry, but also the cosmetic and the pharmaceutical industry.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
I love working with principled and dedicated companies. Our special
guest is CEO and founder of Clear Inc. X L
e a r Inc, Makers of Find nasal spray products
and oral care products at Clear x L e r
dot com.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
I'll tell you what.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Most people would have folded tent and went running into
the another because they were afraid. Let's face it, FTC
has all the money that comes to bear because taxpayers
are paying to chase people that they don't like or
they believe are the bad ombres out there. And you
stood your ground because you knew you were right, and
(35:34):
most people don't. I have to give you credit for
that because obviously you were holding all the aces and
they weren't, and they finally realized your resolve. And for that,
I very much respect what you're doing because you are
not only protecting your company and the consumers who are
relying on Clear nasal sprays to keep healthy and the
spry dental defense system, but it's also, like you said,
(35:56):
it's going to send a message and set a precedence.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
For other nutritutical call but other nu staciutical companies.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
Nathan Jones ought to be sending you money to help
with the the legal expenses that you have obviously probably
to the millions have spent trying to defend yourself against
Goliath here, you know, attacking you, which I absolutely so
much so respect. Now we're going to take a break
(36:25):
and I want to in the last three minutes or so, Nathan,
I want to get into you know, just what the
Clear company is.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
What do you do?
Speaker 3 (36:34):
I mean, what is the spry dndal defense system in
a capsule if you can do that? And why why
why did you invent the Clear nasal sprays? And I
know that's a long answer, but I know you can
encapsulate it so our audience can understand the benefits of them.
And why you have been such a long term sponsor
of the Doctor Bob Martin's Show.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
We'll get to that right after this. Ladies and gentlements,
stay with us.
Speaker 6 (36:58):
This is much side. Take that money side, then.
Speaker 7 (37:09):
Not do Lisson.
Speaker 3 (37:13):
Health. It's the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Welcome, We welcome
back to the program. Thank you so much for tuning
into the program. Remember our toll free number into the
show should you want to ask a health question or
make a health related comment is eight hundred six zero
six eight eight two to two eight hundred six zero
six eighty eight twenty two or the website doctor bob
dot com spelling out.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
The word doctor.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
We have with us the CEO and founder of clear Ink,
makers of the science based, safe and effective nasal sprays.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
And oral hygiene products.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
They just happen to be celebrating twenty five years in business,
which means they have to be doing something real right
and helping millions of people with their health, their oral
health and their nasal health, which leads to helping them
with their entire body, because a lot of these problems
that we have start in the oral cavity or the
(38:06):
nasal cavity, and they're providing products for consumers that shut
that down to help protect them.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
So, Nathan, just.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
In a couple of minutes we have left, let's get
into just the two different product categories, the oral health
products that would be Spry sp r y. Can you
give us a sort of overview of the Spry Dental
Defense system products.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
It's a toothpaste, mouth wash, chewing the mints, candy, stuff
like that. But the original research has been going on
for well over five decades has shown that using xylotol
products actually changes the microbiome in your mouth. You know,
most dental professionals, they'll talk about fluoride, fluoride and when
you get hired of fluorid, more fluoride and brush and slots.
(38:52):
But fluoride does not at any point have they ever
even claimed it does not address the bacterial infect in
your mouth that causes tooth decake. Using flour it is
the perfect example of treating the symptom instead of and
leaving the infection. And what zylientol does is it actually
gets rid of the kyiogenic the bacteria that create the acid,
(39:14):
and so you're actually treating the disease, not the symptoms.
Speaker 4 (39:18):
Excellent.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
So the big body of science behind that is use
alotol oral care products like Spry get rid of the cappys.
Speaker 4 (39:26):
All right, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
When you go to the store, any store, you're looking
for Spry s p r Y dental defense system. It's
what doctor Adam Brockman and doctor Bob Martin and our
families and our colleagues use. Why we don't want to
have a drill in our mouth or a fill, or
a tooth extraction or a root canal anymore, pat it up,
we can't take it anymore. Well, that's fantastic. And also
(39:49):
the Clear nasal sprays. We've got one minute left here.
The Clear nasal spraise, what are they about?
Speaker 6 (39:54):
Heyvid?
Speaker 2 (39:56):
It's most of the bacteria and viruses that enter our
body 'st majority of reasons why people go see your
primary characterisation our upper roof story issues. Sin xylot hal
again blocks bacteria viruses from hearing, facilitating your body to
wash nout and you just don't get sick.
Speaker 4 (40:12):
Fantastic prevention. I love it, and this stuff works, ladies
and john to trust me.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
You can find Clear products online at Clear x l
ear dot com or retailers like Walgreens, Right Aid, Target, Kroger, Sprouts,
Farmers' markets, natural grocers are more or most i should
say natural product retailers nationwide. You can also find Clear
products both the nasal sprays and the Spry dental defense
(40:37):
system Amazon, I Herb, Lucky Vitamins and Vita costs, so
it's available pretty much everywhere. All right, Nathan Jones, thank
you so much for your time.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
And your dedication. I'm doctor Bob Martin. We'll be right
back
