Robotic surgery is being used more in 35 00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:14.520 the operatory in hospitals all the time. We're now seeing reports of thousands of 36 00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:20.399 people being injured and hundreds of people dying as a result of robotic surgery. 37 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:28.439 But it is considered generally safe. But we want to get your opinion as 38 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:33.480 to whether or not you would allow a surgical robot to operate on you. 39 00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:39.160 Yes or no? Now you can vote on that over on my website at 40 00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:46.360 doctor Bob dot com doctrbob dot com. Also, I want to let you 41 00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:50.160 know that coming up this hour, we're going to have installments of the Health 42 00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:57.720 Alternative of the Week, the Health Outrage of the Week. We've got a 43 00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:00.519 product recall to tell you about. Stick around for that, and the Health 44 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:05.839 Mistery of the Week. Now during the break there top of the hour break 45 00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:13.040 my producer asked me who I was rooting for as with respect to the Super 46 00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:19.480 Bowl outcome today because today is Super Bowl Sunday and a lot of people, 47 00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:24.839 they predict, are going to be watching the Super Bowl hundreds of millions of 48 00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:29.160 people, and I usually don't comment on stuff like that, but I feel 49 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:33.560 like, okay, all right, I will because my producer said, well, 50 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.399 what do you think? And I'm kind of torn. I have to 51 00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:43.879 say that I'm a little bit torn because having grown up in the Midwest, 52 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:54.839 I did my training for acupuncture, which is one of the treatments that I 53 00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:58.360 offered to our patients, one of the mini treatments we offer to our patients 54 00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:03.480 over thirty thousand patients tree By Yours truly over my practice career, acupuncture being 55 00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:10.959 one of them. And I did my acupuncture training in Kansas City, Missouri, 56 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.959 and that's where my instructor was from. It's where the training went on, 57 00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:20.079 and so I'm a little partial there. In fact, my acpuncer teacher 58 00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:28.800 treated a number of the Kansas City Chief football players. So I'm a little 59 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:32.279 torn there. But at the same time, my one of my daughters, 60 00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:40.199 my middle daughter, she lives in Napa, California, and so she's a 61 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:46.759 big fan of the San Francisco forty nine ers team, and so she's been 62 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:48.639 really in my year about you know, dad, you got to be rooting 63 00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:54.399 for the forty nine ers. Dad, come on now, and so I 64 00:06:55.079 --> 00:06:58.759 don't know. It's kind of a toss up. I just hope it's going 65 00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:01.240 to be a great game, that's the hope, and that nobody gets hurt, 66 00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:06.920 even though most football players will get hurt. I've had the great honor 67 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:14.040 in my practice career because at one point in time I practiced in Denver, 68 00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:19.360 Colorado, and I had an opportunity to treat a couple of the Denver Bronco 69 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:26.079 football players and a bunch of other professional athletes. Also, while I was 70 00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:30.560 in Colorado, Olympic athletes actually skiers on the Olympic ski team. So I 71 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:40.839 know what athletes go through in terms of their risk ratio when they are trying 72 00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:46.279 to perform in their given arena that they are interested in, whether it be 73 00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:55.639 football or skiing, or basketball or ice hockey or whatever. Injuries happen and 74 00:07:55.800 --> 00:08:00.399 people need to get the care that is needed. And I know a great 75 00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:05.879 number of Over the years, a great number of my colleagues have treated some 76 00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:11.439 of the professional football players who were involved in the Super Bowl. In fact, 77 00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:16.319 one of my colleagues years ago treated Joe Montana San Francisco forty nine ers 78 00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:24.199 and one of the half backs can't remember his name. He was actually from 79 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:28.000 the Midwest itself. And these football players are oh my gosh. You know, 80 00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:33.120 we think all these guys are overpaid. They get all these millions of 81 00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:39.519 dollars for paying for playing football? Is there? You know why is that? 82 00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:43.879 Well, it's a short window of career. One. You got to 83 00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.159 know that that you're not a football player for very long before you start start 84 00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:56.720 sustaining lifelong quality of life impacting injuries. And I have seen a lot of 85 00:08:56.759 --> 00:09:03.879 injuries of football players and professional athletes that they would be willing to give up 86 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:11.080 all of their material wealth and toys to get their health back. Because what 87 00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:15.879 is the value of having a lot of money in the bank and a big 88 00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:20.200 house and a nice car and and all of that lifestyle If you're hurting every 89 00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:26.480 day, if you've got bionic knees, if you have a key breaky joints, 90 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:31.559 and you're degenerated because of all the hits that you took, all the 91 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:35.799 injuries that you resist, and all the surgeries that were necessary to try to 92 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:41.600 patch you back together to get you back on that field, what is that 93 00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:50.320 worth? Geez? I see some retired football players you know that are doing 94 00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:56.639 commercial work on television where I see them walking across the field to get an 95 00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:01.159 honor of some some in some manner, and I see them limping, and 96 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:05.120 I see them all hunched over, and they're not that old. We're talking 97 00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:09.960 about maybe, you know, fifty sixty years of age, and it looks 98 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:13.840 like they're ready to croak already, and they should be living another you know, 99 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.320 thirty years at least, and they don't. But what's more important than 100 00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:26.320 longevity of life is the quality of life. What happens when you're injured to 101 00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:33.000 the degree that people are injured in these contact sports and they don't get the 102 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:37.720 care they need, is that they suffer with these chronic, ongoing injuries for 103 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:41.399 which they have to take drugs to try to numb themselves. Never really works, 104 00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:46.600 and then they have low quality of life. So you got to think 105 00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.480 that FOBO players are usually underpaid, not overpaid, at least in my opinion. 106 00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.600 All Right, the health alternative up next. I'm doctor Bob Martin. 107 00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:03.600 If you're a big sports fan like me, sometimes the best part about watching 108 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:05.960 a football game are the pre and postgame shows.

Life would not exist if humans were on able to make nitric 132 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:03.919 oxide within our blood vessel walls.

You can gift a box of chocolates if you choose 179 00:17:56.799 --> 00:18:00.240 to for somebody, eat it and then get off of it.

Or you can bake 181 00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:11.039 your own legally chocolate treats with Natural Grocer's brand of gluten free brownie mix. 182 00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:18.119 Oh so good for Valentine's Day. So why natural grocers chocolate, you might 183 00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:22.319 ask, and their treats well, one reason is they are organic, and 184 00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:26.759 that means you don't have to worry about pesticides and other things that are going 185 00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:32.559 to go into your body that are undesirable. And they are created using cocoa 186 00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:41.880 beans which have not been treated with synthetic fertilizers, synthetic herbicides or synthetic pesticides, 187 00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:45.599 toxins that will accumulate in your body. That's what you get with organic 188 00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:49.839 chocolate at all natural grocery stores. And if you're lucky to have a natural 189 00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:53.839 grocery store near you, great, If you're not, hit their website naturalgrocers 190 00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:57.960 dot com. Now. One of the most shocking discoveries for me was to 191 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:07.400 find out that conventionally grown cocoa is one of the highest pesticide using crops out 192 00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:15.119 there. I did not know that that in order to keep the bugs away 193 00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:19.880 from the cocoa plant, they use a ton of pesticides, and in these 194 00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:22.279 other countries where a lot of it comes from, you don't even know what's 195 00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:29.400 happening. Organic chocolate is much more satisfying, obviously a lot healthier for you. 196 00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:34.920 And I remember back in the day, I could devour an entire big 197 00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:41.200 chocolate bar in one sitting. I loved eating chocolate when I was young, 198 00:19:41.519 --> 00:19:47.480 but with organic chocolate, the pure, smooth and mouthwatering flavors, you know, 199 00:19:47.559 --> 00:19:48.440 you can get it in squares, you can get in all kinds of 200 00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:52.759 different forms, and yeah, there's gonna be a little bit of shoe gar 201 00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:57.759 in it, but you know, if you do it mildly and maybe once 202 00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:00.880 in a while once a year's so, I think, no big deal. 203 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:07.640 So Wednesday, this coming Wednesday, February the fourteenth, is Valentine's Day, 204 00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:12.720 and what's more perfect than chocolate. Here's the really good news, though, 205 00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:19.480 if you happen to be lucky enough to be near a natural grocery store on 206 00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:25.920 the fourteenth of February Valentine's date, you walk into the store and they will 207 00:20:25.960 --> 00:20:32.720 tell you how to obtain a free chocolate bar for just walking into the store 208 00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:37.599 at a natural grocer's store. Now, you might want to find out where 209 00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:41.880 the natural grocery store is located. I think they're up to around one hundred 210 00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:47.599 and sixty or seventy stores nationwide, but you can certainly find that out and 211 00:20:47.640 --> 00:20:52.759 what's going on over there as far as the free chocolate bar giveaway by going 212 00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:59.480 to their website at natural Grocers dot com. Naturalgrocers dot com. Now, 213 00:20:59.519 --> 00:21:02.839 I'm not sure about all the details about what you have to do to get 214 00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:04.960 that free chocolate bar, but it can't be much. They're giving them away 215 00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:11.839 free on Valentine's Day the fourteenth, this coming Wednesday, So take advantage of 216 00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:15.720 all of that. And if you do go end of the store and you 217 00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:18.440 see somebody telling me you heard about it on the Doctor Bob Martin Show, 218 00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:25.640 that'll be great. All right. Now, as I mentioned earlier in the 219 00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:30.359 hour coming up this hour, still we're going to be have for you the 220 00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:37.160 feature the Health Outrage of the Week that's coming up. That'll be followed by 221 00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:42.000 the product recall of the week. And this is something that we usually stay 222 00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:48.440 on top of when there's a major recall that might be injuring or hurting or 223 00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.079 killing people. And there's a lot of reasons and I see them all the 224 00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:55.480 time. We try to pick the best one. So we've got that. 225 00:21:55.480 --> 00:22:00.160 That'll be followed by the health Mystery of the Week, and then we're we're 226 00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:07.720 also going to finish this hour with a discussion of or two if we have 227 00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:11.599 time. One, I'm going to be talking about a new study which discusses 228 00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:18.640 how a dirt cheap vitamin that you should be taking every single day has been 229 00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:25.640 discovered and found to be scientifically able to reduce your risk of heart attack. 230 00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:33.480 I mean, who wouldn't want to know that information when heart attacks heart disease 231 00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:40.519 is the number two killer of man, only second to medical miscare the number 232 00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:45.400 one killer of man in the United States. So we'll have that information. 233 00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:51.079 And again one of those opportunities after the health outrage at the bottom of the 234 00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:57.200 hour, which we're going to get to, will delve into this latest study 235 00:22:57.319 --> 00:23:03.400 finding about a dirt cheap vitamin to reduce the number two killer of man. 236 00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:06.480 And then of course there's it's never a one trick pony. It's never one 237 00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:10.440 thing. It's a combination of things, which I will get into at the 238 00:23:10.519 --> 00:23:12.559 end of that Once you which I disclosed to you what the vitamin is, 239 00:23:14.559 --> 00:23:18.319 you can get it anywhere. It's it's it's inexpensive, but you know there's 240 00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:22.960 more to it than than just that. And then if we have time during 241 00:23:23.039 --> 00:23:30.720 this hour, I'm gonna also try to get into a discussion of this Sheriff 242 00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:38.640 in Louisiana who claims that sleep apnea using a sleep apnea mask one of these 243 00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:47.200 sleep apne machines caused his kidney cancer.

But first this have you heard of 289 00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:51.720 something called propolis? Propolis is nature's immune defender. Propolis is a resin like 290 00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:59.640 material made by bees from the buds of popular and cone bearing plant material with 291 00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:08.400 three hundred plus beneficial compounds. Propolus is the bodyguard of the beehive. Bees 292 00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:15.640 use it to line the walls of their hives to keep germs out. Researchers 293 00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:22.000 are amazed at how small these bees are and how they function and how smart 294 00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:29.640 they are at protecting themselves and their environment. Propolis has been found to have 295 00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:34.599 antimicrobial properties.

Apparently 316 00:30:52.400 --> 00:31:00.240 a doctor a doctor discovers a severed snakehead in her bag of Giant food frozen 317 00:31:00.279 --> 00:31:08.640 beans green beans. An MD has taken to Twitter recently to ask her medical 318 00:31:08.759 --> 00:31:18.200 colleagues for help after finding a get this severed snakehead in her frozen beans? 319 00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:23.279 I kid you not, and I actually saw a picture of this and it 320 00:31:23.400 --> 00:31:30.519 was kind of nasty and gross. Doctor Rachel, a pediatrician at Atlanta, 321 00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:37.200 Georgia, posted a photo on x which showed the chopped off reptilian head sat 322 00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:42.680 on top of a pan of frozen green beans. Can you even imagine that, 323 00:31:42.720 --> 00:31:48.640 folks staring at you on your green beans? He severed snakehead. The 324 00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:53.720 beans, she explained, were bought from a grocery chain at Giant Foods, 325 00:31:53.759 --> 00:32:00.400 which has one hundred and sixty six stores across the country asks her colleagues for 326 00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:07.160 advice.

The tweet resulted in a flurry of comments from her medical 329 00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:25.079 colleagues in the medical community, debating how risky it was to eat the beans 330 00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:34.400 and whether the surprising find in her veggies was in fact a snakehead. One 331 00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:38.640 response from a doctor, Max Witt, an infectious disease fellow at the University 332 00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:46.920 of Colorado, said on x in response to her post, please cook thoroughly 333 00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:53.799 the beans that had the snakehead in it and you'll be fine. Wash your 334 00:32:53.839 --> 00:33:04.079 hands handling raw snake meat, mainly for salomon Ella. Both reptiles and amphibians 335 00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:07.720 can carry germs that make people ill, with the most common being of bacterial 336 00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:13.160 infectioner salomon Ella. Now can you imagine this is another doctor advising her, 337 00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:15.880 Okay, just go ahead and make sure you cook it. It'll be just 338 00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:21.359 fine with a snakehead in it. Oh ow rageous is that? But doctor 339 00:33:21.440 --> 00:33:24.559 Gail Barnes, on the other hand, a scientist from the Elgin Public Museum 340 00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:31.680 of Natural History and Anthropology in Illinois said in a response to her to this 341 00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:37.960 doctor Rachel's of the pediatrician's post about this snakehead being found in her frozen beans, 342 00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:45.960 she said, pathogens are the least of your worries with severed snake in 343 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:51.920 your green beans. Don't try to find any more body parts, throw them 344 00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:55.279 away. Throw everything away, plus any similar products that you may have. 345 00:33:55.880 --> 00:34:02.920 That was the good doctor the scientists recommendations which I concur with. Why would 346 00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:13.840 anybody contemplate keeping a food if it was known to be contaminated with a snake 347 00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:16.039 head in it? Why would you think about, I'll just cook it out. 348 00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:20.320 Well, one of the doctors recommend you do just that. Why would 349 00:34:20.320 --> 00:34:24.360 she even ask a question that's outrages on its face? And according to Outdoor 350 00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:30.440 Publication Action Hub, all snakes in North America are They're just fine to eat, 351 00:34:30.679 --> 00:34:37.599 but it advised caution when eating venomous snakes to avoid eating the head where 352 00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:43.960 the venom is stored, as the venom can get into any open wound in 353 00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:46.880 your mouth as you're chowing down on it, or throat or any of your 354 00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:53.840 bloodstream. Oh my gosh, this thing is so fraught with outrages. I 355 00:34:53.840 --> 00:34:57.199 don't even know where to begin. But I think you figured it out. 356 00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:04.119 If you find a snakehead, severed snakehead in your bag of frozen food, 357 00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:07.159 I don't care if it's green beads, toss it, go back, take 358 00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:08.719 it back to the store, take picture of it, get your money back. 359 00:35:08.719 --> 00:35:12.960 But don't eat it. Please don't eat it. It would be outrages 360 00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:15.719 to eat it. And that's why it qualified as the health outrage of the 361 00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:20.559 week. We move right from the health outrage to the product recall of the 362 00:35:20.599 --> 00:35:23.920 week. Here we go product recalled the week Now, Trader Joe's issues a 363 00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:32.199 nationwide recall of four Cocha cochia cheese products that may be contaminated with deadly Listeria 364 00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:37.480 bacteria after two Americans died from food poisoning from that food poisoning bud. But 365 00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:45.559 Trader Joe's has recalled four products that contain Listeria amid a nationwide outbreak linked to 366 00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:51.679 the contaminated cheeses. They recalled the chicken edtg, Gelata verde, the cilantro 367 00:35:51.800 --> 00:35:59.119 salad dressing. I'm not a big fan of Trader Joe's period. The number 368 00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:01.920 one health concern and as we move toward and beyond the age of retirement, 369 00:36:02.079 --> 00:36:07.079 is fear of losing our vision and therefore the ability to remain independent. Most 370 00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:12.159 of us, at some point in time have uttered the words I'm not seeing 371 00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:15.639 as well as I used to, or I think I need stronger glasses. 372 00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:20.760 If you are nearing or past age forty, it's not your imagination that your 373 00:36:20.880 --> 00:36:24.679 vision is getting worse. What is likely causing your vision to deteriorate is cataract 374 00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:29.719 formation. Cataracts occur when the lens of the eye becomes cloudy and blocks light 375 00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:34.400 from entering, which interferes with sharp, clear vision. A science based cataract 376 00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:38.760 reversal eye drop called can See is changing lives of people with poor vision caused 377 00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:44.920 by cataract.

Life would not exist if humans were unable 381 00:37:00.159 --> 00:37:02.920 to make nitric oxide within our blood vessel walls. There are many factors that 382 00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:07.440 reduce our ability to produce enough nitric oxide to enjoy optimal health. Contributors to 383 00:37:07.480 --> 00:37:13.840 the development of nitric oxide deficiency include consumption of sugar, unhealthy facts, inflammation, 384 00:37:14.119 --> 00:37:17.239 age, and unhealthy lifestyle. Here's the great news about re establishing optimal 385 00:37:17.320 --> 00:37:22.039 nitric oxide levels.

I want to let you know we have a 408 00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:37.360 health phole question going on based on the latest news out A Florida woman dies 409 00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:43.559 after surgical robot burned a hole in her intestine. Now that's not an isolated 410 00:39:43.639 --> 00:39:47.719 case. There are thousands of people who since robotic surgery has come about have 411 00:39:47.800 --> 00:39:52.960 been injured from robotic surgery. Surgery in general's risky, whether it be a 412 00:39:52.000 --> 00:40:00.119 robot or human, but more and more we're seeing more robot surgery employed in 413 00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:05.079 the operatory. And there's also, of course hundreds of deaths reported as well. 414 00:40:05.119 --> 00:40:08.320 But I want to get your opinion of this on our health poll posted 415 00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:15.159 up on my website at doctor bob dot com. Would you allow a surgical 416 00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:17.840 robot to operate on you? Yes? Or no? In other words, 417 00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:22.480 you might have an elective surgery or not an emergency surgery, but an elective 418 00:40:22.480 --> 00:40:25.079 surgery where your doctor says, okay, So I want to let you know, 419 00:40:25.440 --> 00:40:30.840 need to disclose to you that we're going to be using robotic surgery in 420 00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:34.239 doing your procedure. Now, would you put the brakes on that and leave 421 00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:37.320 the building or would you say, okay, fine, I'm good with that. 422 00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:38.960 I'll sign off on that, doc, no problem. Whatever you think 423 00:40:39.039 --> 00:40:44.239 I believe in you, would you go along with robotic surgery? Yes or 424 00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:47.360 no? Please vote on my website at doctor Bob dot com docto r bob 425 00:40:47.400 --> 00:40:50.360 dot com. All right, now, I want to get into this thing 426 00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:54.400 about dirt cheap, a dirt cheap vitamin, because after all, February is 427 00:40:54.480 --> 00:41:00.320 a National Heart Awareness month, and a dirt cheap vitamin found to reduce the 428 00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:04.079 risk of the number two killer of man, number one being, of course, 429 00:41:04.159 --> 00:41:09.519 medical miscare. The vitamin I'm talking about is vitamin D as in dog. 430 00:41:10.239 --> 00:41:14.840 Vitamin D three, commonly referred to as the sunshine vitamin, is a 431 00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:19.199 fat soluble vitamin that your body naturally produces, of course, when your skin 432 00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:25.119 is exposed to sunlight. But despite having the machinery to synthesize this vitamin, 433 00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:30.880 vitamin D deficiency is still very very common as a health problem. In fact, 434 00:41:30.679 --> 00:41:36.639 here in the US alone, it is predicted that forty two percent of 435 00:41:36.679 --> 00:41:43.400 adults and fifty percent of children between the ages of one and five are said 436 00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:49.440 to have a vitamin D three deficiency, and around seventy percent of children between 437 00:41:49.480 --> 00:41:54.119 the ages of six and eleven also have poor vitamin D status, which means 438 00:41:54.119 --> 00:41:58.119 they're deficient. And that's the worst time of your life. You want to 439 00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:02.920 get vitamin D status when you're growing in trying to repair and expand. Being 440 00:42:02.920 --> 00:42:07.519 deficient in vitamin D leads to very serious health problems, such as something called 441 00:42:07.599 --> 00:42:15.400 hypocalcemia, low blood calcium, hyper parathyroidism, overactive parathyroid glands, rickets, 442 00:42:15.800 --> 00:42:20.840 weak bones. In children, there's a condition called osteomylacious soft bones and adults 443 00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:25.239 or osteoporosis brittle bone disease. And this is why getting sufficient amounts of vitamin 444 00:42:25.320 --> 00:42:31.679 D through sun exposure and your diet is crucial in optimal health. So maintaining 445 00:42:31.719 --> 00:42:37.920 healthy vitamin D levels not only helps you to avoid all the aforementioned diseases, 446 00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:43.639 but also, according to a recent study by Australian researchers, it could also 447 00:42:43.880 --> 00:42:51.039 help you cut your risk of major heart problems cardiovascular events. Can you say 448 00:42:51.079 --> 00:42:57.960 heart attack? The cells of the top layer of your skin naturally contain this 449 00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:01.880 pro vitamin D three and when ultra violet radiation from the sunlight hits your skin, 450 00:43:01.960 --> 00:43:07.679 it causes this pro vitamin D three to be converted to pre vitamin D 451 00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:12.679 three, which ultimately is transformed to what we really need, vitamin D three. 452 00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:17.639 And the research has found that your vascular system is also a sight of 453 00:43:17.719 --> 00:43:22.400 conversion of vitamin D. The active form of D three not only reduces inflammation, 454 00:43:22.519 --> 00:43:29.239 but it also helps regulate blood pressure. So this crucial vitamin which is 455 00:43:29.280 --> 00:43:35.400 found everywhere and inexpensive vitamin D suggests that it could influence your cardiovascular disease, 456 00:43:35.840 --> 00:43:45.039 and it does. Observational studies have found an inverse association between blood calcifherol levels 457 00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:50.079 and the risk of cardiovascular disease. Now some of the other benefits of vitamin 458 00:43:50.159 --> 00:43:52.320 D, and I think everybody over the age of twenty ought to have their 459 00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:59.679 twenty five hydroxy vitamin D blood tested on a pretty regular basis. And getting 460 00:44:00.119 --> 00:44:05.039 enough vitamin D can reduce your risk of multiple sclerosis. It helps boost immunity, 461 00:44:05.440 --> 00:44:08.400 it helps provide a positive mood. It even supports weight loss. It's 462 00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:13.280 one of those vitamins you absolutely have. We have it on board to make 463 00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:16.239 it. We just don't get enough sunlight. And so five to fifteen minutes 464 00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:22.159 of sunlight a few times a week between the hours of ten am and one 465 00:44:22.360 --> 00:44:24.559 pm. That's what you need to do. Not getting a sun tan or 466 00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:29.760 a sunburn. Never ever, ever do that. And according to researchers, 467 00:44:29.800 --> 00:44:35.920 this is the best time to get vitamin C synthesis with a minimal minimal risk 468 00:44:35.960 --> 00:44:40.199 of any skin cancer issues or concerns. So you can also get vitamin D 469 00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:47.960 of course through fatty foods, fatty fish, also mushrooms, white mushrooms and 470 00:44:49.280 --> 00:44:55.599 creminy mushrooms, eggs, cheese, and of course quality vitamin D three supplements 471 00:44:55.639 --> 00:45:00.079 found at all health food stores. But that's not the you know, the 472 00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:04.239 long and the short of it. I mean, we still need to exercise, 473 00:45:04.320 --> 00:45:07.199 we still need to lower our stress, We still needed to eat a 474 00:45:07.239 --> 00:45:10.360 decent diet like a Mediterranean diet. But there are also other supplements you can 475 00:45:10.400 --> 00:45:16.320 take to ensure good heart health, like nitric oxide lozenges. We talked about 476 00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:20.079 that with doctor Brian Doctor Nathan Bryant in the first hour of the show. 477 00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:23.400 Nitricoxide lozenges N one O one dot com, N one o one dot com, 478 00:45:24.079 --> 00:45:30.639 co Q ten very important d ribos love that for heart issues, Magnesium 479 00:45:30.679 --> 00:45:35.159 hawthorne, omega three. These are the things that clinicians who are in the 480 00:45:35.199 --> 00:45:39.760 trenches in functional medicine and integrated medicine know about. So you can do these 481 00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:44.320 things if you know about them, and help those patients you're responsible for. 482 00:45:44.440 --> 00:45:47.519 But how hard would it be just to take one thousand to two thousand, 483 00:45:47.639 --> 00:45:52.480 up to five thousand international units of vitamin D three per day found at the 484 00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:55.159 health foods Do Dirt cheap, Go get it.

Accepting medicare is increasingly unsustainable for physicians, 504 00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:37.239 resulting in many practices either refusing to take new patients or even closing their 505 00:47:37.280 --> 00:47:42.159 doors. That's according to the American Medical Association, which says that reforms are 506 00:47:42.199 --> 00:47:45.679 needed to better meet the needs of patients and physicians alike.

Yes? Or no? And next week 529 00:49:45.159 --> 00:49:47.360 when we get our polling data, I'm gonna get into the reason why we 530 00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:54.960 posted up that question and the story behind this woman who died from a surgical 531 00:49:55.039 --> 00:50:00.920 robot mistake burning a hole in her intestine area. We'll get into that next 532 00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:02.679 week. All right, it is time now, ladies and gentlemen, for 533 00:50:02.840 --> 00:50:12.480 this week's installment of the health Mystery of the Week. Millions and millions of 534 00:50:12.480 --> 00:50:16.519 people suffer from headaches, and one of the most excruciating form of headaches, 535 00:50:16.519 --> 00:50:22.920 of course, is migraine headaches. I've recently read how Simon Cowell, famous 536 00:50:23.400 --> 00:50:31.880 person, television person, American idol Simon cow found a way to relieve his 537 00:50:34.039 --> 00:50:42.320 migraine headaches with a twenty two dollars pair of orange specs to beat migraine headaches 538 00:50:42.519 --> 00:50:47.880 for less than twenty two dollars a pair Simon Cow's orange tinted sunglasses he's now 539 00:50:47.920 --> 00:50:52.920 wearing. I see that are likely to be one of the cheapest fashion accessories 540 00:50:52.960 --> 00:51:00.039 he's ever purchased. Yet the pop industry icon has rarely been seen in public 541 00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:07.079 without them since they first made an appearance during a recording of America's Got Talent 542 00:51:07.280 --> 00:51:14.400 last autumn, and with good reason. Kyles insists the spectacles that he's not 543 00:51:14.519 --> 00:51:19.000 wearing, which he is said to have purchased online for about twenty two dollars, 544 00:51:19.320 --> 00:51:22.920 helped him to combat at crippling migraine headaches that have been apparently affecting him 545 00:51:22.920 --> 00:51:30.039 for many years. Although the TV personality last week missed an audition filming Britain's 546 00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:35.599 Got Talent due to a sudden onset of a painful migraine, he insists the 547 00:51:35.639 --> 00:51:40.599 spectacles are still a big help and have cut down his migraine headaches greatly over 548 00:51:40.639 --> 00:51:45.960 time since he's been wearing them. But can a cheap pair of brightly colored 549 00:51:45.000 --> 00:51:51.320 shades really provides simple solution to a condition that affects forty million people alone in 550 00:51:51.360 --> 00:51:53.679 the United States. The main symptom, of course, is intense, often 551 00:51:53.719 --> 00:52:00.920 one sided headache that can be agonizing, leaving the affected person literally in capacity. 552 00:52:00.000 --> 00:52:07.119 Such is the effect of light sensitivity known as photophobia. That some patients 553 00:52:07.920 --> 00:52:13.719 have to take to a darkened room for hours sometimes, and a lot of 554 00:52:13.719 --> 00:52:17.480 people who have migrant headaches have to take prescription drugs like a triptans, which 555 00:52:17.679 --> 00:52:23.719 can shorten the length of the attack. But who cares? If Simon Kyle 556 00:52:23.840 --> 00:52:30.920 is getting relief by wearing these red shaded sunglasses and his migrant headaches have gone 557 00:52:30.960 --> 00:52:35.280 down, even though we can't figure out what's causing it, it's a mystery. 558 00:52:35.440 --> 00:52:37.639 Who cares? He's better off as a result of it, and that's 559 00:52:37.639 --> 00:52:43.679 all that matters. So that's the health mystery of the week. Stay healthy, 560 00:52:43.880 --> 00:52:45.480 I'm doctor Bob Martin. Be well.
