That's the Doctor Bob Martin Show caller hotline. Again, it's
eight hundred six zero six eight eight two to two. Remember, folks,
knowledge is power, but laughter is the best medicine. So

(02:30):
grab your green smoothie or your coffee. No judgment here
and settle in and let's make this hour your your
healthiest yet. If you're ready, let's dive in. First up,
I'm gonna expose vaping a little further. It's the shocking
truth they don't want you to know, ladies and gentlemen.

(02:51):
Here it is Big tobacco has been replaced by big vape,
and they're so called healthy alternative might be even deadlier
and cigarettes. Today, we're going to blow the lid off
the shocking new research that proves disposable vapes are pumping
cancer causing metals into your LUNs at levels that'll make

(03:11):
your hair stand on end. If you are your kid's vape,
you need to hear this the hard truth about vaping.
I want to cut through the candy flavored smoke screen here.
Vaping isn't the harmless habit it's been marketed as. Researchers
at UC Davis just dropped a bombshell study showing that

(03:34):
popular disposable vapes like elf bar and es Go bars
are leaching dangerous heavy metals into every puff you take.
And get this, some of these devices release more lead
in a single day than smoking nearly twenty that's twenty
packs of cigarettes. That's right. While Big Vape has been

(03:58):
busy convincing teens that may go flavored nicotine is cool,
their products have been quietly poisoning a generation. The lead
levels were so high in these tests that researchers actually
thought their equipment was broke. Let that sink in for
a second. The toxicity was literally off the charts. The

(04:22):
metal mayhem, the toxic cocktail. This is what they found
in these devices. Lead, The same neurotoxin we spent decades
removing from paint and gasoline is now being inhaled directly
into young LUNs, increasing risk for lun kidney and brain damage.

(04:45):
These vapes also have nickel in them. That's a known
carson gen and it's linked to nasal and sinus cancers.
It's found at levels that are exceeding safe limits. It
also has a flame retardant chemical that has no business
being in anything that anybody inhales. Yet here we are
in vapes. These metals aren't just floating around in the liquid.

(05:10):
They're leaching from the heating coils themselves, turning every puff
into a toxic metal smoothie for your LUNs. In teens
have really taken to vaping. It's an epidemic. While only
six percent of adults vape, these disposable devices have become
an epidemic among teens, with brands like we mentioned elf

(05:32):
Bar dominating the market. And why wouldn't they With flavors
like blue ras, lemonade and strawberry banana, they're clearly designed
to hook kids. But here's what they don't advertise on
these colorful packages. These devices exceed the cancer risk limits

(05:54):
for what mentioned before Nickel, They contain enough lead to
cause respiratory diseases like asthma, and they're illegal to sell
to youth, yet sold openly in convenience stores in many
vape shops nationwide. That's right, every single flavored vape on
the market is being sold to hook youth with little

(06:15):
oversight about what's actually in them. We've already had our
first vaping related cancer death. Just this year, we saw
the first documented case of lung cancer caused by vaping.
A New Jersey man paid the ultimate price for believing
the safer alternative myth. How many more are following this

(06:38):
dangerous path. The truth is, while cigarettes contain more carcinogens
over all vaping delivers concentrated doses of heavy metals directly
to your LUNs in wigs. Cigarettes never did. It's like
comparing being hit by a bus versus being slowly poisoned.

(06:58):
Neither is good, but one just may kill you faster.
So my suggestion this is what you need to do.
If you vape, stop now today. If your kids vape,
have them listen to this and encourage them to stop
now as well. Let's cut through the vape cloud. Your

(07:25):
harmless flavored habit is a nicotine. A nicotine addiction causes
lund damage, and even worse, it causes mental health issues.
Studies show that vaping doubles depression risk, It shrinks blood
vessels and delivers heavy metals straight to your LUNs and brain.

(07:45):
And here's the kicker. It's not even helping smokers quit.
Many end up dually addicted your stress relief stick or
an adult pacifier. It's a lie that ages your skin,
sabotages your workouts, and turns your LUNs into a science

(08:06):
fair project. If you ditch the vape and in seventy
two hours, your taste buds will throw a party, your
wallet will fatten up, and your cells will finally stop
screaming for mercy. So this is what I asked you
to do. Stop the vape immediately if you can make
sure your kids aren't vaping, and I think what we'll

(08:29):
try to do here. We got a couple of minutes
before break. I'm gonna go ahead and try to answer
a question from Bill from Sea con Massachusetts.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Pull up, doctors. My name is Bill, and I'm calling
from Sea Hunk, Massachusetts. I had heard that the stilled
water can help leach out heavy metals from the body.
I don't know if that's two or not. I was
just wondering if either one of you would know if
heavy metals can actually help get rid of I'm sorry,
if the stilled water can get rid of heavy metals,

(09:02):
thank you. I'll be waiting for your answer on here.
You guys can.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
All right, Hi, Bill, thanks for your question. Distilled water
it's a pure water that has been boiled and then
condensed to remove impurities, including minerals and contaminants. Because of this,
some people believe it can help flush out toxins like
heavy metals from the body, and while drinking distilled water

(09:27):
can help you stay hydrated in free of added minerals
or chemicals. It doesn't directly pull heavy metals out of
your tissues or your bloodstream. The bodies detox systems, especially
the livers, liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system are responsible for
filtering and eliminating heavy metals. Supporting these organs with proper nutrition, antioxidants,

(09:52):
and hydration is key for heavy metal detox Natural approaches
would include nutrients like cilantro which binds to metals and
it helps to eliminate those. Antioxidants such as those found
in chyolic age garlic extract which support liver health and

(10:13):
ensuring good hydration, whether it's with filtered water, spring water,
or even distilled water supporting gut health with probiotics like
doctor Ohroes probiotic which can enhance detoxification. There's also heavy
metal detoxes supplements out there, but I recommend these under
the supervision of a natural health provider. So bill, while

(10:36):
distilled water is safe and helpful for hydration, it is
just one part of the broader natural detoxification plan. Again,
always consult with a healthcare provider before becoming beginning any
heavy metal detox or gene and ensure that it has
safe and effectiveness for you. All right, Bill, we're coming
up on a break. You're listening to The Doctor Bob

(10:58):
Martin Show.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
This is my side Star Fight.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Welcome back. You are listening to The Doctor Bob Martin Show.
I'm doctor Adam Brockman, your co pilot on your health journey. Now,

the conversation going and empower each other to live our
healthiest lives. Okay, So we're gonna get back into our
summer series. That is, basically we're talking about different things

(12:19):
that you need to know about to stay healthier this summer.
We're gonna get into a pool party panic. It's the
shocking truth about your summer oasis. So listen up, pool lovers,
that crystal clear water you're diving into. It's a battleground
between invisible killers floating feces in chemical cocktails. Your summer

(12:40):
oasis is more like a biohazard zone. I want to
start with an alarming statistic that we should all be
aware of. Drowning. Drowning is the number one killer of
children ages one to four. And here's the nightmare fuel.
It happened silently, no screaming, no splashing, just gone. This

(13:05):
is what's scary. This happens at backyard barbecues or while
watering flowers while the kids play. But there's hope in this.
A four sided fence cuts drownding wrist by eighty three percent.

Speaker 5 (13:20):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Your toddler needs a ford knocks around a pool and
always assign a water watcher at every gathering. Their only
job is to stare at that water like it owes
them money. Outside doors to pools should be locked with alarms.
I suggest a lock at the top of the door

(13:42):
only adults can reach. And swim lessons are a must
and should be taught at an early age, as early
as infants, and keep those little tykes safe and having
fun this summer. Okay, now that we have everyone safe swimming,
let's discuss the pooh, the pea, and the parasites. It's

(14:04):
a news flash. Chlorine doesn't kill everything. Once you meet
cryptosporidim it's a diarrhea demon that can survive in pools
for up to ten days one accidental gulp of water
in VAM, it's a liquid shame for weeks. And parents,

(14:24):
listen up. Those splash pads that your kids love. Last
year alone, they were linked to over ten thousand illnesses.
Your child is running through a cocktail of strangers, pea, sunscreen,
and who knows what else. If your kids say the
pool water tastes salty, trust me, it's not salt. And

(14:48):
the pools they have a dirty little secret. It's chloromine
gas that clean chlorine smell you associate with pools, that's
a lie. What you're actually smelling is chloramine. It's a
toxic brew of chlorine mixed with pea, sweat, and body oils.
Breathing it in can trigger asthma attacks, cause rashes, and

(15:12):
leave your LUNs screaming for mercy. Indoor pools are the
worst offenders. If your eyes are burning, they aren't just tears,
it's your body's begging for fresh air. So some community
pool tips here. Choose outdoor pools when possible, look for
proper ventilation at indoor facilities, and I suggest a sixty

(15:36):
second pre swim shower and no cheating here please. You
can also protect your gut with probiotics and vitamins. That
gut armor is real, and inspect public pools before you
get in. You see some of them that enforce bathroom
breaks for your crew about every sixty minutes, or you

(15:59):
can prepare for accidents. So there you have it. Your
pool side paradise isn't just a summer escape. It's a
high stake survival challenge. But don't let the fear run
your splash. With a few smart moves, fort Knox fencing,
militant shower enforcement, in a nose sharp enough to sniff

(16:21):
out the chloramine lies, you can turn that biohazard zone
back into a backyard oasis. Stay diligent, stay informed, and
remember the best pool parties are the ones where everyone
goes home healthy. Now grab your goggles, slather on that sunscreen,
and dive into a smarter water as long as you're

(16:43):
not drinking it. Of course, One last psa. If the
pool smells like a chemical warfare fair experiment, maybe just
stick to the sprinklers all right, and this story is
going to bring us to our health alternative of the week.

(17:17):
This week's health alternative ties into our story about the
hidden hazards in your pool and arm your gut with
armor from chemical imbalances to chlorine resistant parasites. Your summer
oasis might be working against your gut in immune microbiome.
But I've got a remedy that'll keep your body in
sync even if the pool chemistry isn't perfect. Pools can

(17:41):
harbor invisible threats bacteria, chemical byproducts, pesticide runoff, and yes,
cryptosporidium that laughs at chlorine. These exposures can disrupt your
gut microbiome, stretch your detox pathways, and cause low level
inflammation strong defenses your gut can take a hit. That's

(18:04):
where essential formulas Doctor Ohres probiotics come in. This isn't
your run of the mill supplement. It's a fermented blend
of twelve probiotic strains plus a prebiotic fiber in a
post biotic metabolite. The five year fermentation process creates a
complex ecosystem that supports gut lining health in the immune system.

(18:26):
Here's the beauty after swimming in water that's potentially chloramine
heavy or lightly contaminated. You want your gut defenses strong.
Doctor Ohre's formula helps to replenish beneficial bacteria after exposure.
It supports intense testinal barrier repair and reduces inflammation from

(18:48):
water associated stressors. It's like sending in the Peacekeepers after
a summer pool invasion. Each capsule provides billions of friendly
back you need, plus fermented fibers that nourish your gut.
Studies show powerful immune resilience and anti inflammatory effects, essential

(19:11):
when you're regularly exposed to pool chemicals or invisible pathogens,
and unlike refrigerator probiotics, Doctor o'heeres uses natural fermentation to
stay stable, perfect for a beach day, bags, or camping.
Here's how to slot it into your routine. Take one
capsule daily with your largest meal on pool heavy weeks, bump.

Speaker 6 (19:34):
It to two.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
It's shelf stable, so stash it pool side or in
your beach tote without worrying about spoilage. One show listener
said to me, after a weekend pool time, I'd get
bloated in achy, but after a week on doctor o'here's probiotics,
I feel lighter, and haven't had that post swim outset stomach.

(19:57):
That's gut healing and action with out gut chilling side effects.
So if your summer plans include lounging, pool side or
cannonball contest, don't leave gut health to chance. Grab essential formulas,
Doctor Ohere's probiotics. They're your gut summer bodyguard. Nourish your microbiome,

(20:18):
neutralized pool stressors, and enjoy summer naturally optimized. Here's to
water fund that doesn't cost your gut. Has been your
health alternative of the week, Doctor o'here's pro biotics. All right,

(21:55):
of this fantastic resource. All right, before we get into
our health outrage, let me let you in on a
little secret. My entire family plus every health savvy colleague
I know, swears by Spry's dental Defense to dodge tooth
decay gingivitis in the dreaded what's that smell bad breath moment,

(22:17):
here's why Spry's toothpaste mouth rents in gum pack a
plant powered punch with xylatol. That's a cavity crushing plaque
pummeling breath freshening hero no burning mouthwash, no weird aftertaste,
just flavors like peppermint and cinnamon that make your mouth
feel like it won the hygiene Lottery. My routine brush

(22:41):
with Spry toothpaste, rent with Spry mouth rents into Spry
gum Boom. Now, my dental hygienis tells everyone she knows.
Now and find it at CVS, Walgreens, Target, or Sprouts,
or head over to Clear dot com. That's x l
e ar dot com, the makers of Clear nasal sprays,

(23:02):
which I also recommend. And hey, if your Dennis ask
you why your teeth looks so good, just wink and
say Spry because I'd rather chew gum than get a filling.
All right. That brings us to our health outrage of
the week.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
Geese, don't believe it.

Speaker 8 (23:23):
Come on each to for the health outbradge because it's nothing.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
Blood Ladies and gentlemen, brace yourselves because today's health outrage
of the week is so shocking you might want to
sanitize your ears after hearing it. We're exposing the filthy,
disgusting and downright dangerous hygiene fail that's putting millions of
patients at risk in hospitals worldwide. You've ever been to

(23:50):
a hospital, This will make your skin crawl. Picture this.
You're lying in a hospital bed recovering from surgery. The
nurse comes in, checks your blood pressure, wheels the machine away.
Seems routine, right wrong? That machine, the one that just
touched your skin, might be coated in bacteria from the
last patient. And guess what, no one cleaned it properly.

(24:14):
A GRAMD breaking study from Australia published in the Lancet
Infectious Disease Journal just revealed that shared medical equipment like
blood pressure cuffs, thermometers and dressing trolleys are breeding grounds
for deadly infections. And here's the kicker. Hospitals know this,
but they're still not cleaning them.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
Right.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
Let me hit you with the numbers, because this is
mind blowing. Before the study, only twenty four percent of
hospital equipment was properly cleaned. It's like eating at a
restaurant where they only wash one out of every four forks.
After implementing basic cleaning protocols, that number jumped to sixty
six percent. The result is thirty five perc sent fewer

(25:00):
infections just from wiping things down. Now, let's talk about
real victims here. The patients in the US alone, hospital
acquired infections contribute to ninety nine thousand deaths every year.
That's ninety nine thousand people who went in for treatment
and ended up worse off because of lazy hygiene. In

(25:24):
the US, one in thirty one hospital patients get an infection.
That's over a million people every year, and many of
these infections are preventable if hospitals would just clean their equipment.
This is not just a US problem, this is a
global problem. Here's the real outrage. Hospitals no cleaning works.

(25:47):
The study proves it. So why isn't it standard practice?
Because nobody's making them. Cleaning protocols for operating rooms they're strict.
Cleaning protocol for shared equipment almost non existent. And let's
be honest, hospitals are busy places. Nurses and doctors are overworked,

(26:12):
but that's no excuse for putting patients at risk. If
McDonald's can clean their tables between customers, why can't hospitals
clean a blood pressure cuff? This has been your health outrage.
Let's get those nurses some cleaning help, especially cleaning shared
equipment between uses. All right, we're gonna get right back

(26:35):
into our next color question. It's Jan from Pullman, Washington.

Speaker 9 (26:41):
Jam Pullman, Washington. They've been diagnosed with scolera deerma and
is vitamin D three a problem? And what can I
do for scholar dera derma? Thank you?

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Okay, Jan, thank you for your question regarding sclare doma
derma and vitamin D three. First, let me say that
sclare deerma is a complex autoimmune condition where the body
produces too much collagen, leading to the hardening of skin
and connective tissue. It can not just affect the skin,
but also internal organs in some cases, so your concern

(27:25):
and proactive approach is absolutely warranted. The question of is
vitamin D three a problem, I think it's. On the contrary,
in most cases, viamin D three is not a problem,
and in fact it may be part of the solution.
Low levels of vitamin D have been linked to worsen
autoimmune activity. However, it's critical to test your vitamin D

(27:48):
three levels through a vitamin D blood test before supplementing
it aggressively. Optimal levels are in the range of fifty
to eighty units per mile leater for immune support. Other
natural support methods for sclaoderma A few natural medicine science
based tools that you can put in your toolbox. You

(28:11):
might consider omega three, fatty acids that are found in
flax seed oil, fish oil, even algae oil. These help
reduce inflammation and support skin health. Also consider vitamin E
and C. These antioxidants help protect connective tissue and can
reduce free radical damage involved in the disease process. I

(28:36):
also want you to consider it coyolic age garlic extract.
This is a trusted immune support. It's aged garlic and
it has anti inflammatory properties and cardiovascular benefits which may
help in systemic sclaoderma cases. You may look at doctor
Oher's probiotics. Gut health plays an important role in autoimmune

(28:58):
disease that gut my biome. It helps support immune function
and regulation and jan I also want you to consider
a low inflammatory diet. Avoid processed sugars, gluten, and dairy
if you're sensitive those. Focus on leafy greens, berries, olive oil,
and fatty fish and Jan other therapies to explore general

(29:23):
detox via infrared sauna or dry brushing, a chiropractic physical
therapy or mild fascial massage for improving skin elasticity in circulation,
and something known as low dose nltroxone. It's l DN.
Ask that at your integrative doctor. It's used a lot

(29:43):
of times to modulate autoimmunity, So Jan, the bottom line here,
D three is typically beneficial, not harmful in autoimmune conditions
like SCLAIDMA, but test your levels first, and from a
natural medicine perspective to focus on modulating your immune system
gently and consistently with anti inflammatory nutrients and lifestyle adjustments.

(30:10):
Jan know that with the right support you can feel better.
And thank you for your question.

Speaker 5 (30:16):
Jan.

this anesthesia. Thank you so much, have a blessed day.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
All right, Victoria, thank you for your kind words and
for trusting us with these questions. It sounds like you're
approaching your upcoming outpatient mesh removal from hernia surgery with
great care and intent, and that's how healing should be done.
As far as liver support before and after anesthesia, anesthesia
and other medications used during surgery can place a burden

(35:31):
on your liver, which is responsible for detoxifying. No substances
from your body. Supporting your liver both before and after
surgery is wise. Here are some evidence based strategies.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
For you.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
Pre and post surgery. Liver support include melk thistle. This
is one of the most researched herbs for liver health.
It helps protect liver cells from damage and supports regeneration.
A standardized extract taken daily, start in a few days
before the surgery and continuing afterward is a good IDEA.
Look at NAC, which is in acetyl cystein NAC boost glutathione.

(36:12):
That's the body's master antioxidant and is excellent for detoxifying
the liver after anesthesia, taking on an empty stomach unless
otherwise directed. I also want to mention kyolic age garlic.
It's a unique form of garlic that supports liver detoxification.
It boosts the immunity and even has cardiovascular benefits, making

(36:32):
a great option post surgery. Increase your hydration. Stain hydrated
helps your liver flush out those residual anesthesia. Add some
lemon or a clean electrolyte mix to your water for
extra detox support, and you might consider essential Formula's doctoral
here is probiotics. Since your gut and liver are closely connected,

(36:55):
we call it as some known as a gut liver axis.
Taking a brodd spectrum probiotic can help support both digestion
and detoxification, especially in important It's especially important after surgery
or medications. Will your hernia surgery maybe further out, consider
these pre and post optips here. Like a collagen rich

(37:17):
protein maybe from some warrior, they make a great one.
It promotes connective tissue repair and healing. Vitamin C helps
with collage information and tissue repair and arnica. It's great
for reducing bruising and inflammation after surgery, So Victoria, your
desire to cleanse and strengthen your body naturally is great.

Bob and myself are ready to help you. We're getting
into our final stretch and we're gonna get right into
our health mystery of the week. Our health mystery of

(39:06):
the week, We're going to dive into a bizarre and
alarming outbreak in India where over one hundred and twenty
school children suddenly developed red, burning eyes and even double vision.
No obvious cause, no quick answers, and the little ones
are still struggling. Let's get into what makes this so
confounding and unsettling. In late June, one hundred and twenty

(39:29):
two out of two hundred and twenty five students had
to visit the local hospital with acute eye redness, intense
burning irritation, and many even experienced double vision. That's over
fifty percent of the entire student body. A frightening number
of kids ended up hospitalized, with official scrambling to test water, air,
in food samples. Health officials ruled out liver and kidney issues,

(39:54):
which was some relief, but the source remains unknown. They're
testing everything again, from water samples from the school itself
in dorms to food sources, but so far no bacterial
or viral culprit has been found. Everyone scratching their heads
and parents are understandably panicking. This isn't just pink eye.

(40:18):
The burning sensation in double vision suggests something more serious,
possible chemical irritation, toxic exposure, or even environmental pollutants. It's uncommon.
Acute and inexplainable centered in one school. In many parts
of the world, testing infrastructure is limited in bureaucracy slows action. Meanwhile,

(40:41):
the affected kids in their families are left stranded in limbo.
From a natural medicine perspective, these symptoms suggest potential toxic
or irritant exposure. I'd support symptomatic relief with cold compresses,
eye soothing herbs like eyebright and care as, and eyewashes

(41:02):
in natural anti inflammatories like omega threes in vitamin C.
But the ultimate fix has to come from discovering the source,
whether it's contaminated water, past aside drift, or chemical residue.
So our health mystery of the week is frightening outbreak
of red burning eyes. What's poisoning the kid's vision? Until

(41:25):
official test results arrive, we're left with questions, chills, and
a strong reminder to watch what flows through the water,
wins through the air, and seeps into our schools. And
that's our show. You you're the reason we're shaking up
healthcare one conversation at a time. Never forget your small
steps today are building tomorrow's breakthroughs. Keep those calls coming.
