So we'll continue our conversation here this hour with open line, 35 00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:12.639 open topic health related questions, anything that's on your mind. Happy to 36 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.360 try to help you out. But I'm going to begin this hour talking about 37 00:04:15.399 --> 00:04:24.199 a very troubling bit of information that I ran across published in the Epidemiology and 38 00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:31.959 Psychiatry Sciences related to birth control pills. Now, obviously birth control pills are 39 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:40.360 designed mostly to stop women from becoming pregnant, but women take birth control pills 40 00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:45.319 for a variety of reasons, maybe their menstrual cycle is off, or some 41 00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:50.759 other reason that they have at endometriosis, or trying trying to somehow modulate the 42 00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:58.519 immune system. But birth control pills, you may not know this can greatly 43 00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:04.560 increase the risk of depression those women who are taking birth control pills. I 44 00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:11.240 wonder if it was disclosed to them beyond the normal disclosure. You know, 45 00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:15.360 it can cause blood clots, and it can cause you to gain weight and 46 00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:19.639 have tender breasts, and the many many and B six deficiency and all the 47 00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:25.279 different things that birth control pills. When you fool with mother nature and especially 48 00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:30.319 the hormone system, what can happen. But most women, I dare say, 49 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:39.000 do not hear that taking birth control pills could cause depression, could increase 50 00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:44.519 the risk of being depressed. And if there's anybody out there listening right now 51 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.360 to the sound of my voice and knows a woman who is on birth control 52 00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:55.040 pills and they develop depression, I'd like to hear from you. New research 53 00:05:55.160 --> 00:06:02.519 suggests that women who use combined contracept to pills are significantly more likely to develop 54 00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:09.920 depression than women who do not. A recently published study found that contraceptive pills 55 00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:15.680 birth control pills increased women's risk of depression. Get this. You're sitting down 56 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:16.680 for this, and you might say to yourself, Oh, I've got a 57 00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:21.759 daughter that's on birth control pill I've got a niece that's on birth control pills. 58 00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:28.319 My wife is on birth control pills. It increased the risk in this 59 00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:34.560 published study, the risk of depression by taking birth control pills by seventy three 60 00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:42.319 percent during the first two years of use. Seventy three percent. That's huge. 61 00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:44.560 I know what you're saying. Well, then you just go back to 62 00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:46.959 the doctor, you get something for the depression. Now you've got birth control 63 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:53.160 pills going in, messing with the immune system and the hormone system, and 64 00:06:53.279 --> 00:07:02.160 you've got now drugs psychotherapy type drugs with the brains chemistry in some manner. 65 00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:09.079 Study I'm talking about where it showed that the risk of depression goes up seventy 66 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:16.079 three percent was published in Epidemiology and Psychiatric Services and was conducted by researchers at 67 00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:24.519 Uppsala University in Upsala, Sweden. Although women have long reported symptoms of depression 68 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:30.639 due to their birth control pills, few studies have shown evidence of the phenomena. 69 00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:33.839 And you're saying to yourself, well, this is probably a very small 70 00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:41.240 study on a very small group of women who suddenly got depressed with taking birth 71 00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:43.600 control pills. No, no, this is not a small study. This 72 00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:53.920 was two hundred and fifty thousand women. Two hundred and fifty thousand women were 73 00:07:53.959 --> 00:08:01.680 studied from birth to menopause, collecting data on their use of birth control pills 74 00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:09.199 and the onset of depressive symptoms. Researchers focused only on combination contraceptive pills containing 75 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:16.120 synthetic progesterone to prevent ovulation as well as estrogen to inhibit implantation of a fertilized 76 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:22.959 egg, and according to the researchers, their data indicate that women who use 77 00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:31.360 contraceptive pills as teenagers had a one hundred and thirty percent higher incidents of depressive 78 00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:35.960 symptoms than those who did not. Among the adults on contraceptive pills, the 79 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:45.679 studies showed a ninety two percent increase risk of depressive symptoms. That is so 80 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:50.879 large and people cannot put their finger on it. You know, suddenly somebody's 81 00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:56.639 taking birth control pills for a variety of reasons, maybe to stop having you 82 00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:03.600 from becoming pregnant, and suddenly they're depressed. According to doctor Teresa Johannesson of 83 00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:09.240 the Department of Immunology and Genetics of the Pathology Upsolete University, on the studies 84 00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:16.240 leading researchers, she says, and I quote the powerful influence of contraceptive pills 85 00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:22.679 birth control pills on teenagers can be ascribed to the hormonal changes caused by puberty. 86 00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.720 As women in that age bracket in that group have already experienced substantial hormonal 87 00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:33.639 changes, they can be more receptive not only to hormonal changes but also for 88 00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:39.879 other life experiences. So you add stress on an already changing system on a 89 00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:48.919 woman by giving these synthetic analog drugs two young women, and nasty things can 90 00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:54.240 happen, can go wrong. Now, there are obviously plenty of women that 91 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:58.879 have taken birth control pills, and beyond the breast tenderness and the water retention 92 00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:03.960 and maybe increasing the risk of gall bladder problems and problems with their female system, 93 00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:07.320 they don't feel a thing. They feel great. In fact, they're 94 00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:11.720 less depressed because they know that they can stay sexually active and not become pregnant. 95 00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.440 I get it that there's a group, but I wonder how many women 96 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:22.159 knew, how many women cared that they had such an increased risk of the 97 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:31.320 development of depression as a result of taking birth control pills. The question becomes 98 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:35.799 is it worth it? Was it worth it? And some might say, 99 00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:39.120 yes, I didn't get pregnant. I'd be very depressed if I got pregnant. 100 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:41.240 But at the same time, I wondered why I was so depressed after 101 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.720 I started those birth control pills. Well, at least now I know, 102 00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:48.639 all right, We'll come back to your questions here On The Doctor Bob Martin 103 00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:54.960 Show one, Triple eight five five three seven two six two be right back. 104 00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:01.360 The number one health concern is we moved to warden beyond the age of 105 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:05.639 retirement is fear of losing our vision and therefore the ability to remain independent. 106 00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:09.840 Most of us, at some point in time have uttered the words I'm not 107 00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:13.720 seeing as well as I used to, or I think I need stronger glasses. 108 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.600 If you are nearing or past age forty, it's not your imagination that 109 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:24.080 your vision is getting worse.

Welcome to 149 00:14:54.200 --> 00:15:01.639 the program, Alan, Hello, Hello Dot Bob. Yes, go ahead, 150 00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:05.320 you're on the airline. Okay. Um. I'm sixty five, fairly 151 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:11.759 good health. Um, just a week or so ago, started getting a 152 00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:16.639 pain in my right bodock. I went to a doctor. They think it's 153 00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:22.480 a satic nerve, and over the last few days it's starting to get worse 154 00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:31.080 or it's moving down into my leg deeper, and it's just the expruciating pain. 155 00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:37.679 Um. Basically they gave me mock the cam or something. It's a 156 00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:46.840 I'd be like and I'd be profen uh anti inflammatory, and I'm taking that 157 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:50.960 that's not doing anything for me whatsoever. Okay, trying to figure out if 158 00:15:52.000 --> 00:16:00.320 you had me right ideas on what made what the best course going forward here? 159 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:02.679 All right, let me ask you a question, Allen. Is the 160 00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:07.120 pain that you're experiencing or the sensation that you're experiencing, is it lower than 161 00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:10.519 your need? Is it going to your calf or your heel or ankle or 162 00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:18.600 foot? Um? Hey no, not necessarily no, but it's starting to 163 00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.360 move further down my leg then nother than it has in the last few days. 164 00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:30.480 Okay, it sounds yeah, it sounds like you have sidica. You're 165 00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:34.799 describing the sidic nerve, and that is a problem. It's not a good 166 00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:41.240 fit for you to be in or medical care for a structural problem like this, 167 00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:47.480 because if this sidic nerve is being encroached or entrapped in your lower back, 168 00:16:47.559 --> 00:16:52.039 which is the most common sight in the lumbar spine lower lumbar spine, 169 00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:56.840 lumbar vertebrae number four or five, or lumbar sacrum segment, or it's being 170 00:16:56.960 --> 00:17:03.360 entrapped within your butt muscle itself in a muscle called the puriformist. It can 171 00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:07.039 be spasmodic and it can squeeze the pureformist muscle there. So you have a 172 00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:11.400 couple of two or three or four different sites where that siding nerve can be 173 00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:15.920 irritated. The doctor of choice with a condition like this, Allen is a 174 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:18.680 chiropractic physician. That's who you need to see. That's the doctor of choice 175 00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:22.839 for this condition. Meanwhile, what you should be using, what you should 176 00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.519 be doing before you get there, is using ice over the area. I 177 00:17:26.559 --> 00:17:30.920 would get go to the drug store and get several of these gel ice packs, 178 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:37.799 put them in the freezer, take out one once it's frozen, and 179 00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:42.039 put it over the area where you're feeling it in your hip or buttox area, 180 00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.759 maybe one on the lower back as well, and leave it on there 181 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:51.279 for fifteen to twenty minutes. Fifteen to twenty minutes, then off for an 182 00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:55.480 hour, and then back on and try to rest, don't exercise, stay 183 00:17:55.519 --> 00:18:00.039 off your feet, and try to let this calm down own until you can 184 00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:07.599 get in and properly get evaluated, which means you need an exam that includes 185 00:18:07.759 --> 00:18:11.200 orthopedic tests, neurologic tests, range, emotion, and you need to have 186 00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:15.680 an X ray. Was an X ray taken of your back yet, Alan, 187 00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:19.400 No, I have not. No. Yeah, that's a mistake. 188 00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:25.920 When you have that kind of pain, you need to have a roadmap so 189 00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:30.640 you know what's going on. This is most likely structural, biomechanical and a 190 00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:36.720 drug on this even though I have no problem with people taking painkilling drugs short 191 00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:37.920 term, but you got to get to the reason for it, and you 192 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:42.960 got to correct the underlying problem. And the reason it's not helping you is 193 00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:48.039 because the underlying problems not being addressed the drugs, not even numbing it up. 194 00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:53.160 So there's your body's telling you something's much worse than just a minor strain 195 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:59.400 of a muscle for which analgesics and rest will help. So I would first 196 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:03.400 thing Monday morning, if I were you, find a chibropractor in your area 197 00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:07.319 to go get examined, and that should do the job. And I appreciate 198 00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:11.599 your phone call, Alan, Hope you feel well soon. Next up is 199 00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:17.440 Irene. She's calling in from the state of Colorado. Welcome to the Doctor 200 00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:22.640 Bob Martin's show. Irene. Hello, Hello, Doctor Bob. I have 201 00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:26.640 a problem. I'm eighty five and I'm pretty active, so I've got lots 202 00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:30.039 going on in my life, but my scalp has got thick dandruff and I 203 00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:33.759 cannot get rid of it. I've tried everything, even over a prescription, 204 00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:38.960 and I do. Yeah. And dandruff can be caused by a number of 205 00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:44.079 things. It can be caused by yeast or fungus, and that's where a 206 00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:48.480 lot of these drugs that are used on the scalp are targeting, trying to 207 00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:52.519 kill the fungus or kill the yeast. And usually this is a problem that 208 00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:56.480 happens inside your gas or intestinal track. First, it's where it gets out 209 00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:02.240 of balance. It could be second dairy to you being on medications, or 210 00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:07.119 maybe in the past Irhne you took antibiotics and it upset the balance of your 211 00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:12.119 gastrointestinal area. And now this is sort of overtime the problem. The other 212 00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:18.680 part of it is that dietarially, if you're not taking in the right kinds 213 00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:22.680 of oils in your diet, like the essential oils, essential fatty acids like 214 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:26.640 Omega three. These are the kind of oils you get from eating fish like 215 00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:33.799 salmon and eating sardines or anchovies, or even you can even use coconut oil 216 00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:37.000 if you want. But where to start on This is the simplistic part. 217 00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:42.359 Start drinking more pure water, get rehydrated, because sometimes it has to do 218 00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:48.319 with dehydration that leaves this susceptible too. Then I would say to go to 219 00:20:48.359 --> 00:20:52.079 the health food store, pick up some Omega three fatty acids in the form 220 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:57.160 of salmon oil, maybe Nordic Naturals ultimate omega, and take three to four 221 00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:04.839 thousand milligrams that on an empty stomach each day. You can also use coconut 222 00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:11.160 oil as well. In fact, you can Massage coconut oil into your scalp, 223 00:21:11.519 --> 00:21:15.799 which has something in it called loric acid and caprillic acid. These are 224 00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:22.720 very strong antimicrobials, anti fungal agents. Because I can tell you that people 225 00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:27.440 who get dandruff usually the problem starts in their gastrointestinal system, their bowel, 226 00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:34.200 and it's caused by something getting out of balance there and eventually the weakest part 227 00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:38.400 of the body wherever it is, is going to experience the symptoms. To 228 00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:47.079 get your attention, so start using in your diet more garlic and onions. 229 00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:52.079 These are foods that help fight fungal infections and these yeast over growth infections. 230 00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:59.440 It ultimately leads to dandruff, very recalcitrant, hard to clean up, hard 231 00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:06.119 to clear out dandruff. Massage that coconut oil into your hair just before you 232 00:22:06.160 --> 00:22:07.720 go to bed at night. If you want to put something on your head, 233 00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:11.920 like something so that the oil doesn't get over your betting your pillow, 234 00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:17.119 you can do that as well, and then to simply wash it out the 235 00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:21.480 next day. And you do not want to use harsh chemicals as a shampoo. 236 00:22:22.519 --> 00:22:25.720 When you go to the health food store to pick up the supplements, 237 00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:30.960 either the omega three fatty acids, maybe some Kyowa lagarlic that would be good 238 00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:37.440 internally as well, and maybe even some probiotics because the gas or intestinal region 239 00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:42.319 needs to be re established. Something has hit it hard and until you manage 240 00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:45.000 that, the skin problem on your scalp is not going to get better. 241 00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:48.960 So you come at it from the outside end and the inside out. That 242 00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:52.920 is the best approach for something like this. Now there's a whole bunch of 243 00:22:52.920 --> 00:23:02.680 other considerations to people who have got, you know, dandruff, certain deficiencies, 244 00:23:02.799 --> 00:23:07.079 zinc. I've used zinc on people in the past. There are other 245 00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:10.759 nutrients as well, But this will give you the basis of where to start, 246 00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:14.960 because if you only focus on the head where the problem is, you're 247 00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:19.720 not going to get to the core or the central genesis of this problem, 248 00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:26.519 which was in your gastrointestinal track, your ball and so many of the drugs 249 00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:30.920 that are used on this just makes the problem worse. So think fungus, 250 00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.119 yeast, and mold. Get away from sugars. Sugar is the one thing 251 00:23:33.160 --> 00:23:37.039 that will feed this. It's like pouring gasoline on a fire. Sweets and 252 00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:41.680 sugar and junk food, candy, ice cream, those are things you want 253 00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:48.039 to stay away from those exacerbate this problem. All right, I hope this 254 00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:49.480 helps out. It's going to take time to get rid of it, but 255 00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:52.720 I think if you stay on track, Irene, you're going to be better 256 00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:59.039 off.

Welcome to the program, and hello Hike, You're so informative. 340 00:31:53.279 --> 00:31:56.960 Thank you so much. I wanted to mention to Allen in Iowa that 341 00:31:57.079 --> 00:32:02.519 I went to a trigger point chiropractor, and I tell you that made a 342 00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:06.960 big difference, because I went to another chiropractor and it didn't make any difference. 343 00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:12.319 But anyway, what I'm calling about is armor thyroid. I've been on 344 00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:19.480 it. I'm on the lowest dose for a long time. And because the 345 00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:28.160 pork industry maybe putting mRNA vaccines into the pork, I don't want to stay 346 00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:31.319 on armor thyroids? What can I do to get off? Have you been 347 00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:35.079 on? What can I do to support my thyroid? You know? So 348 00:32:35.119 --> 00:32:38.759 I wouldn't you know or other alternative? Okay, let me ask you a 349 00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:44.200 question. How long have you been on armor thyroid? Ten years? Yeah, 350 00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:45.319 Well, you're not going to be able to get off of it once 351 00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:50.960 you're on a thyroid support, whether it's T three and T four, which 352 00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:54.000 is what you're taking with armor thyroid, the desiccate type of thyroid, which 353 00:32:54.200 --> 00:32:59.119 used to be the gold standard. Now it's of course LEVI a thyroid synthroid 354 00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:04.440 all you all the different synthetic forms of thyroid, usually just one or the 355 00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:07.400 other T three or T four. So in this case, since you've been 356 00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:12.920 on it a year, there's no turning back. You will probably and unlikely 357 00:33:12.960 --> 00:33:16.480 because I haven't seen anybody lately that have been able to get completely off thyroid 358 00:33:16.480 --> 00:33:21.960 once you're on that support, which which is okay because it doesn't it's not 359 00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:24.599 the end of the world. You need your thyroid. Your thyroid is your 360 00:33:24.680 --> 00:33:30.039 largest undercren organ It affects every tissue in your body, and you can't allow 361 00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:32.839 it to crash by simply saying, well, I don't like it anymore because 362 00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:37.359 of this what you just stated with mRNA going into the livestock, and that's 363 00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:44.039 of course where the desiccate forms of thyroid armor come from. What you have 364 00:33:44.119 --> 00:33:49.160 to do is find the dose that is the least amount that you need to 365 00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:52.839 take. Do you let me ask you a question, and do you perform 366 00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:58.799 mr tests at home where you measure your own body metabolic rate temperature with a 367 00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:02.119 thermometer under your arm to see how your thyroid is actually working. That in 368 00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:08.960 combination with blood tests I've had I have in the past, and I'm very 369 00:34:09.079 --> 00:34:15.239 low, like I'm a degree below normal, will say, in the ninety 370 00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:19.760 eight points or whatever the temperature risk. Because I haven't done it for a 371 00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:24.000 long time, I could, but on the whole I can. I find 372 00:34:24.039 --> 00:34:30.039 that when I'm tested for us things, my temperature is lower. Okay, 373 00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:34.840 Well, the temperature that you're looking for, just to kind of circle back 374 00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:39.239 to that is ninety seven point six. That's the minimum basal metabolic great temperature 375 00:34:39.239 --> 00:34:43.280 with a thermometer under your arm, first thing in the morning, before you 376 00:34:43.320 --> 00:34:45.239 get out of bed, before you stir. You leave it under there, 377 00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:49.719 and you measure it seven days in a row, and you should be somewhere 378 00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:53.119 between ninety seven point six and ninety eight point two. That's the sweet spot. 379 00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:58.360 That's the area using a not a digital thermometer. Do not use a 380 00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:00.920 digital thermometer. Use an all fashion find one. They have them out there, 381 00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:06.280 not the mercury thermometers, but just the oral thermometers, non digital, 382 00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:14.400 and take those readings. And if you're below that far below the minimum allowable 383 00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:19.920 temperature basiment about a great temperature of ninety seven point six, you are under 384 00:35:20.559 --> 00:35:24.000 supplying your thyroid with what it needs and you need to goost that up. 385 00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:29.519 Boost that up. Go to your doctor whoever's prescribing the armor. They need 386 00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:31.000 to work with you, and then they can also talk to you about certain 387 00:35:31.079 --> 00:35:37.239 nutrients may need to be on, like iodine and tyrazine and zinc, selenium, 388 00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:42.480 other nutrients that support thyroid function. And just a lifestyle. You know 389 00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:45.159 what does exercise have to do with thyroid a lot? How about eating sugar? 390 00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:49.400 Does that suppress thyroid? Yes? How about caffeine? That message your 391 00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:53.320 thyroid up. You can't convert thyroid hormone on caffeine. Hope this helps out 392 00:35:53.360 --> 00:35:58.480 an thank you for your phone call. We'll be right back.

Now, at the bottom of the hour, I 437 00:39:59.599 --> 00:40:05.519 was talking about how important it is to use toothpaste and mouthwash that's rich in 438 00:40:05.760 --> 00:40:12.119 zyol at all. It's really a health a simple way to extend your life 439 00:40:12.119 --> 00:40:15.320 and your health span. But we can take it a step further. Did 440 00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:22.599 you know that the simple act of flossing your teeth can also extend your life? 441 00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:27.199 And health span. It's true, you only get one set of adult 442 00:40:27.239 --> 00:40:32.079 teeth, and flossing your pearly whites could end up making a huge difference in 443 00:40:32.119 --> 00:40:37.039 your life span. Flossing removes plaque from your teeth, a key contributor to 444 00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:43.440 gum disease, but according to researchers at Harvard Medical School, preventing gum disease 445 00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:50.920 might also help protect against heart disease. They found that gum disease could contribute 446 00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:55.320 to chronic inflammation as the body reacts to continuing presence of plaque in your teeth 447 00:40:55.800 --> 00:41:04.559 and ends up negatively impacting your cardiovascular system your heart. A study in the 448 00:41:04.679 --> 00:41:09.719 Journal of Aging among people over the age of let's see sixty found that those 449 00:41:09.760 --> 00:41:15.000 who didn't floss had a thirty percent higher risk of dying over your an average 450 00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:21.320 of nine years. So flosh your teeth every day and use the Spride dental 451 00:41:21.360 --> 00:41:25.079 defense system tooth based mouth rense gumments all rich in xyle. It's all that's 452 00:41:25.119 --> 00:41:29.000 a great health hack. And I know that sometimes we need to be reminded, 453 00:41:29.079 --> 00:41:34.840 yes, brush, yes, flossy, flush out see your dental hygienis 454 00:41:34.920 --> 00:41:37.480 or Dennis. But flossing is so important. It's a part of my daily 455 00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:39.679 routine. I hope it is yours. All.

Next up is Share. She's going from the 460 00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:06.199 state of Kansas. Welcome to the program, Sherry, Hello, hello doctor. 461 00:42:07.519 --> 00:42:12.760 When you were talking about birth control, Now, I'm a boomer and 462 00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:17.639 I never used birth control pills, but I've read this book in the last 463 00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:24.639 year or two about it's by Sarah. I think her mental initial is T, 464 00:42:25.400 --> 00:42:30.320 but I'm not sure about Sarah Hill. At the time she wrote the 465 00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:37.679 book in twenty nineteen, she's a professor at TCU. She does have PhD. 466 00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:43.559 And it was this is your Brain on birth Control, and then the 467 00:42:43.639 --> 00:42:49.320 other the subtitle was something about Unintended consequences. And I tell you what, 468 00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:54.559 she would make a good guess because she really did a lot of went through 469 00:42:54.599 --> 00:43:01.960 a lot of research, other people's research, and it was I really learned 470 00:43:02.000 --> 00:43:07.440 a lot and I read for my granddaughter. That's good to her. That's 471 00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:16.719 good, But you know how to use UM drugs for off label uses and 472 00:43:19.239 --> 00:43:23.559 on birth control pills. They're giving these the young ladies um you know, 473 00:43:23.719 --> 00:43:31.199 for acne stabilize their periods. And according to this lady, girls should not 474 00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:37.760 go on birth control pills till they're real close to twenty because their brains are 475 00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:42.559 changing so much and this messes with your brain so much. How about how 476 00:43:42.559 --> 00:43:49.039 about women girls should never go on birth control pills period if it increases their 477 00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:58.519 risk of depression by seventy three percent or in younger teenagers by ninety some percent, 478 00:43:59.239 --> 00:44:02.280 and not only that. And it sounds like the book that you're mentioning 479 00:44:02.320 --> 00:44:06.559 sounds very interesting. I'm unaware of it. I'll look into it. But 480 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:10.800 the other part of this is that it just desmodulates your entire system. What 481 00:44:10.880 --> 00:44:15.880 most people don't know is that when you take birth control pills, you deplete 482 00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:22.599 your body of very important nutrients. Folic acid, vitamin B two, vitamin 483 00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:27.079 B six B twelve, vitamin C, vitamin E, minerals, magnesium and 484 00:44:27.159 --> 00:44:30.599 zinc and selenium. These are all things that leave the body as a result 485 00:44:30.719 --> 00:44:35.599 of taking birth control pills. When you try to full mother nature. To 486 00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:42.159 the extent that you're stopping a normal natural process, you're going to pay for 487 00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:45.199 it in some manner, and most women are not told. Look, while 488 00:44:45.199 --> 00:44:49.239 you're on these birth control pills, you need to supplement with additional B complex, 489 00:44:49.360 --> 00:44:53.400 vitamin C, vitamin E, and minerals because they're going to be pillaged 490 00:44:53.480 --> 00:45:00.000 out of your body when you have that kind of deficiency of those vitamins. 491 00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:07.000 B vitamins are important to manage stress, they're important for energy, and people 492 00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:10.599 with B vitamin deficiency, yes, can become depressed. And I have all 493 00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:15.199 kinds of other mental illnesses. It's been proven. So I hear what you're 494 00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:19.119 saying. I totally agree with you, Sherry, and you picked up on 495 00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:22.199 it with that segment that I did on birth control pills and how they can 496 00:45:22.199 --> 00:45:27.400 increase depression. And I appreciate you calling into the program. Good health to 497 00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:32.559 you.

Now they've 551 00:49:52.440 --> 00:49:57.920 said, well, we're gonna add them back. We're gonna put antibiotics back 552 00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:02.039 in the chicken at no extra arch. Well, we'll see about that when 553 00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:06.920 I comment on that next hour. You won't want to miss that segment of 554 00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:10.199 the program if you eat any chicken whatsoever. All right, let's finish off 555 00:50:10.280 --> 00:50:14.760 with Dan, who's in Tennessee calling into the program. Dan, we have 556 00:50:14.760 --> 00:50:17.800 about a minute or so left in the program, and if you can tell 557 00:50:17.800 --> 00:50:22.039 me what's going on, I'll try to help you out. Sir. Yes, 558 00:50:22.079 --> 00:50:24.360 there, I'm seventy six and I just started having ringing in my ears. 559 00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:30.599 Okay, one thing you'll want to do is stop using caffeine. Caffeine 560 00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:37.239 makes ringing in the ears worse. Next, if you're taking aspirin or ibuprofen, 561 00:50:37.559 --> 00:50:42.119 and there's about two hundred and forty eight other drugs, you might want 562 00:50:42.159 --> 00:50:46.400 to review that with your pharmacist or you're prescribing doctor. All two hundred and 563 00:50:46.400 --> 00:50:51.760 fifty drugs can cause ringing in the ears or can exacerbate ringing in the ears. 564 00:50:52.480 --> 00:50:59.320 There is a formula, a homeopathic formula that you can find in health 565 00:50:59.320 --> 00:51:04.280 food stores called ring Stop. You might want to write that down ring Stop 566 00:51:06.039 --> 00:51:12.000 by Natural Care Products. I would give that ninety days of help or try. 567 00:51:12.119 --> 00:51:15.280 And ringing in the ear is tough. It's sort of like neuropathy within 568 00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:23.039 your ears. It's the cochlear hairs within the cochlea that are malfunctioning, misfiring, 569 00:51:23.159 --> 00:51:27.800 or have been mowed down due to something. There may be a medication 570 00:51:27.840 --> 00:51:31.800 that you're taking that's making it worse. I don't know, but try these 571 00:51:31.840 --> 00:51:38.239 simple things. And also acupuncture has been very successful at helping reduce ringing in 572 00:51:38.280 --> 00:51:43.119 the ears or stop it. So if you can find an acupuncturist in your 573 00:51:43.159 --> 00:51:49.360 area to get some treatments on the right points in and around the ear that 574 00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:52.960 might help. There's also a technique where you can stretch your ear. Stretch 575 00:51:53.000 --> 00:51:59.280 it out, hold it to thirty seconds, then pull it down, hold 576 00:51:59.320 --> 00:52:02.400 it for thirty seconds and do maybe a few sets of that, not to 577 00:52:02.440 --> 00:52:07.800 the point where there's pain, but just stretching your ear lobes. Just take 578 00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:15.440 the whole ear with your hands in your palm, stretch it forward out and 579 00:52:15.559 --> 00:52:22.159 then down thirty seconds, holding on each improving the circulation to that area. 580 00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:25.760 That can even help it. Sometimes stay away from loud noises. That's a 581 00:52:25.800 --> 00:52:30.800 big cause of ringing in the ears, being around law, big noise with 582 00:52:30.880 --> 00:52:37.119 high decibels. And hopefully these things will help you out. Dan appreciate your 583 00:52:37.119 --> 00:52:39.639 phone call. Stick around. We're coming right back. Talking about Tyson Foods 584 00:52:39.679 --> 00:52:44.960 adding antibiotics back into the chicken. Not good. I'm doctor Bob Martin.
