how long has it been for you? Well, then you've come to

you want to get the information for them because you know what's wrong with them,
and you want to ask a question here on the program and bring it
back to them. That would be fantastic too. Here's the number into the

Maybe your health or the health of somebody else that you care about and you
want to call in for them, you can do that eight eight eight five
five three seven two six two one triple eight fifty five Doctor Bob. That's
eighty eight five five three seven two six two gets you into the show and
on the air to ask your health question, or if you have something on
your mind you want to make a health related comment related to what we just
discussed last hour with doctor James Lavelle, pharmacist, clinical nutritionist, author.
We had him on the program last hour talking about how to balance out the
immune system using plant sterols and sterilens in the form of something called mogic.
Here that was a fascinating conversation and a great guest to get a perspective from
a doctor who is, in addition to being a pharmacist, also a very
astute clinical nutritionist. So we'll continue our conversation here this hour with open line,
open topic health related questions, anything that's on your mind. Happy to
try to help you out. But I'm going to begin this hour talking about
a very troubling bit of information that I ran across published in the Epidemiology and
Psychiatry Sciences related to birth control pills. Now, obviously birth control pills are
designed mostly to stop women from becoming pregnant, but women take birth control pills
for a variety of reasons, maybe their menstrual cycle is off, or some
other reason that they have at endometriosis, or trying trying to somehow modulate the
immune system. But birth control pills, you may not know this can greatly
increase the risk of depression those women who are taking birth control pills. I
wonder if it was disclosed to them beyond the normal disclosure. You know,
it can cause blood clots, and it can cause you to gain weight and
have tender breasts, and the many many and B six deficiency and all the
different things that birth control pills. When you fool with mother nature and especially
the hormone system, what can happen. But most women, I dare say,
do not hear that taking birth control pills could cause depression, could increase
the risk of being depressed. And if there's anybody out there listening right now
to the sound of my voice and knows a woman who is on birth control
pills and they develop depression, I'd like to hear from you. New research
suggests that women who use combined contracept to pills are significantly more likely to develop
depression than women who do not. A recently published study found that contraceptive pills
birth control pills increased women's risk of depression. Get this. You're sitting down
for this, and you might say to yourself, Oh, I've got a
daughter that's on birth control pill I've got a niece that's on birth control pills.
My wife is on birth control pills. It increased the risk in this
published study, the risk of depression by taking birth control pills by seventy three
percent during the first two years of use. Seventy three percent. That's huge.
I know what you're saying. Well, then you just go back to
the doctor, you get something for the depression. Now you've got birth control
pills going in, messing with the immune system and the hormone system, and
you've got now drugs psychotherapy type drugs with the brains chemistry in some manner.
Study I'm talking about where it showed that the risk of depression goes up seventy
three percent was published in Epidemiology and Psychiatric Services and was conducted by researchers at
Uppsala University in Upsala, Sweden. Although women have long reported symptoms of depression
due to their birth control pills, few studies have shown evidence of the phenomena.
And you're saying to yourself, well, this is probably a very small
study on a very small group of women who suddenly got depressed with taking birth
control pills. No, no, this is not a small study. This
was two hundred and fifty thousand women. Two hundred and fifty thousand women were
studied from birth to menopause, collecting data on their use of birth control pills
and the onset of depressive symptoms. Researchers focused only on combination contraceptive pills containing
synthetic progesterone to prevent ovulation as well as estrogen to inhibit implantation of a fertilized
egg, and according to the researchers, their data indicate that women who use
contraceptive pills as teenagers had a one hundred and thirty percent higher incidents of depressive
symptoms than those who did not. Among the adults on contraceptive pills, the
studies showed a ninety two percent increase risk of depressive symptoms. That is so
large and people cannot put their finger on it. You know, suddenly somebody's
taking birth control pills for a variety of reasons, maybe to stop having you
from becoming pregnant, and suddenly they're depressed. According to doctor Teresa Johannesson of
the Department of Immunology and Genetics of the Pathology Upsolete University, on the studies
leading researchers, she says, and I quote the powerful influence of contraceptive pills
birth control pills on teenagers can be ascribed to the hormonal changes caused by puberty.
As women in that age bracket in that group have already experienced substantial hormonal
changes, they can be more receptive not only to hormonal changes but also for
other life experiences. So you add stress on an already changing system on a
woman by giving these synthetic analog drugs two young women, and nasty things can
happen, can go wrong. Now, there are obviously plenty of women that
have taken birth control pills, and beyond the breast tenderness and the water retention
and maybe increasing the risk of gall bladder problems and problems with their female system,
they don't feel a thing. They feel great. In fact, they're
less depressed because they know that they can stay sexually active and not become pregnant.
I get it that there's a group, but I wonder how many women
knew, how many women cared that they had such an increased risk of the
development of depression as a result of taking birth control pills. The question becomes
is it worth it? Was it worth it? And some might say,
yes, I didn't get pregnant. I'd be very depressed if I got pregnant.
But at the same time, I wondered why I was so depressed after
I started those birth control pills. Well, at least now I know,
all right, We'll come back to your questions here On The Doctor Bob Martin
Show one, Triple eight five five three seven two six two be right back.
The number one health concern is we moved to warden beyond the age of
retirement is fear of losing our vision and therefore the ability to remain independent.

welcome or welcome back to this hour of the Doctor Bob Martin's Show, and
thank you so very much for tuning into the program. Today. We're gonna
go to the phone calls and open topic questions here. The phone lines are
loaded, so if you're on hold right now and you've been screened to go
on the air Be patient. We'll get to all of your calls. We're
gonna begin with Alan, who's calling from the state of Iowa. Welcome to
the program, Alan, Hello, Hello Dot Bob. Yes, go ahead,
you're on the airline. Okay. Um. I'm sixty five, fairly
good health. Um, just a week or so ago, started getting a
pain in my right bodock. I went to a doctor. They think it's
a satic nerve, and over the last few days it's starting to get worse
or it's moving down into my leg deeper, and it's just the expruciating pain.
Um. Basically they gave me mock the cam or something. It's a
I'd be like and I'd be profen uh anti inflammatory, and I'm taking that
that's not doing anything for me whatsoever. Okay, trying to figure out if
you had me right ideas on what made what the best course going forward here?
All right, let me ask you a question, Allen. Is the
pain that you're experiencing or the sensation that you're experiencing, is it lower than
your need? Is it going to your calf or your heel or ankle or
foot? Um? Hey no, not necessarily no, but it's starting to
move further down my leg then nother than it has in the last few days.
Okay, it sounds yeah, it sounds like you have sidica. You're
describing the sidic nerve, and that is a problem. It's not a good
fit for you to be in or medical care for a structural problem like this,
because if this sidic nerve is being encroached or entrapped in your lower back,
which is the most common sight in the lumbar spine lower lumbar spine,
lumbar vertebrae number four or five, or lumbar sacrum segment, or it's being
entrapped within your butt muscle itself in a muscle called the puriformist. It can
be spasmodic and it can squeeze the pureformist muscle there. So you have a
couple of two or three or four different sites where that siding nerve can be
irritated. The doctor of choice with a condition like this, Allen is a
chiropractic physician. That's who you need to see. That's the doctor of choice
for this condition. Meanwhile, what you should be using, what you should
be doing before you get there, is using ice over the area. I
would get go to the drug store and get several of these gel ice packs,
put them in the freezer, take out one once it's frozen, and
put it over the area where you're feeling it in your hip or buttox area,
maybe one on the lower back as well, and leave it on there
for fifteen to twenty minutes. Fifteen to twenty minutes, then off for an
hour, and then back on and try to rest, don't exercise, stay
off your feet, and try to let this calm down own until you can
get in and properly get evaluated, which means you need an exam that includes
orthopedic tests, neurologic tests, range, emotion, and you need to have
an X ray. Was an X ray taken of your back yet, Alan,
No, I have not. No. Yeah, that's a mistake.
When you have that kind of pain, you need to have a roadmap so
you know what's going on. This is most likely structural, biomechanical and a
drug on this even though I have no problem with people taking painkilling drugs short
term, but you got to get to the reason for it, and you
got to correct the underlying problem. And the reason it's not helping you is
because the underlying problems not being addressed the drugs, not even numbing it up.
So there's your body's telling you something's much worse than just a minor strain
of a muscle for which analgesics and rest will help. So I would first
thing Monday morning, if I were you, find a chibropractor in your area
to go get examined, and that should do the job. And I appreciate
your phone call, Alan, Hope you feel well soon. Next up is
Irene. She's calling in from the state of Colorado. Welcome to the Doctor
Bob Martin's show. Irene. Hello, Hello, Doctor Bob. I have
a problem. I'm eighty five and I'm pretty active, so I've got lots
going on in my life, but my scalp has got thick dandruff and I
cannot get rid of it. I've tried everything, even over a prescription,
and I do. Yeah. And dandruff can be caused by a number of
things. It can be caused by yeast or fungus, and that's where a
lot of these drugs that are used on the scalp are targeting, trying to
kill the fungus or kill the yeast. And usually this is a problem that
happens inside your gas or intestinal track. First, it's where it gets out
of balance. It could be second dairy to you being on medications, or
maybe in the past Irhne you took antibiotics and it upset the balance of your
gastrointestinal area. And now this is sort of overtime the problem. The other
part of it is that dietarially, if you're not taking in the right kinds
of oils in your diet, like the essential oils, essential fatty acids like
Omega three. These are the kind of oils you get from eating fish like
salmon and eating sardines or anchovies, or even you can even use coconut oil
if you want. But where to start on This is the simplistic part.
Start drinking more pure water, get rehydrated, because sometimes it has to do
with dehydration that leaves this susceptible too. Then I would say to go to
the health food store, pick up some Omega three fatty acids in the form
of salmon oil, maybe Nordic Naturals ultimate omega, and take three to four
thousand milligrams that on an empty stomach each day. You can also use coconut
oil as well. In fact, you can Massage coconut oil into your scalp,
which has something in it called loric acid and caprillic acid. These are
very strong antimicrobials, anti fungal agents. Because I can tell you that people
who get dandruff usually the problem starts in their gastrointestinal system, their bowel,
and it's caused by something getting out of balance there and eventually the weakest part
of the body wherever it is, is going to experience the symptoms. To
get your attention, so start using in your diet more garlic and onions.
These are foods that help fight fungal infections and these yeast over growth infections.
It ultimately leads to dandruff, very recalcitrant, hard to clean up, hard
to clear out dandruff. Massage that coconut oil into your hair just before you
go to bed at night. If you want to put something on your head,
like something so that the oil doesn't get over your betting your pillow,
you can do that as well, and then to simply wash it out the
next day. And you do not want to use harsh chemicals as a shampoo.
When you go to the health food store to pick up the supplements,
either the omega three fatty acids, maybe some Kyowa lagarlic that would be good
internally as well, and maybe even some probiotics because the gas or intestinal region
needs to be re established. Something has hit it hard and until you manage
that, the skin problem on your scalp is not going to get better.
So you come at it from the outside end and the inside out. That
is the best approach for something like this. Now there's a whole bunch of
other considerations to people who have got, you know, dandruff, certain deficiencies,
zinc. I've used zinc on people in the past. There are other
nutrients as well, But this will give you the basis of where to start,
because if you only focus on the head where the problem is, you're
not going to get to the core or the central genesis of this problem,
which was in your gastrointestinal track, your ball and so many of the drugs
that are used on this just makes the problem worse. So think fungus,
yeast, and mold. Get away from sugars. Sugar is the one thing
that will feed this. It's like pouring gasoline on a fire. Sweets and
sugar and junk food, candy, ice cream, those are things you want
to stay away from those exacerbate this problem. All right, I hope this
helps out. It's going to take time to get rid of it, but
I think if you stay on track, Irene, you're going to be better
off. Thank you for your phone call. We'll be right back. All

telephone calls and questions. Next up is and she's calling in from the state
of Colorado. Welcome to the program, and hello Hike, You're so informative.
Thank you so much. I wanted to mention to Allen in Iowa that
I went to a trigger point chiropractor, and I tell you that made a
big difference, because I went to another chiropractor and it didn't make any difference.
But anyway, what I'm calling about is armor thyroid. I've been on
it. I'm on the lowest dose for a long time. And because the
pork industry maybe putting mRNA vaccines into the pork, I don't want to stay
on armor thyroids? What can I do to get off? Have you been
on? What can I do to support my thyroid? You know? So
I wouldn't you know or other alternative? Okay, let me ask you a
question. How long have you been on armor thyroid? Ten years? Yeah,
Well, you're not going to be able to get off of it once
you're on a thyroid support, whether it's T three and T four, which
is what you're taking with armor thyroid, the desiccate type of thyroid, which
used to be the gold standard. Now it's of course LEVI a thyroid synthroid
all you all the different synthetic forms of thyroid, usually just one or the
other T three or T four. So in this case, since you've been
on it a year, there's no turning back. You will probably and unlikely
because I haven't seen anybody lately that have been able to get completely off thyroid
once you're on that support, which which is okay because it doesn't it's not
the end of the world. You need your thyroid. Your thyroid is your
largest undercren organ It affects every tissue in your body, and you can't allow
it to crash by simply saying, well, I don't like it anymore because
of this what you just stated with mRNA going into the livestock, and that's
of course where the desiccate forms of thyroid armor come from. What you have
to do is find the dose that is the least amount that you need to
take. Do you let me ask you a question, and do you perform
mr tests at home where you measure your own body metabolic rate temperature with a
thermometer under your arm to see how your thyroid is actually working. That in
combination with blood tests I've had I have in the past, and I'm very
low, like I'm a degree below normal, will say, in the ninety
eight points or whatever the temperature risk. Because I haven't done it for a
long time, I could, but on the whole I can. I find
that when I'm tested for us things, my temperature is lower. Okay,
Well, the temperature that you're looking for, just to kind of circle back
to that is ninety seven point six. That's the minimum basal metabolic great temperature
with a thermometer under your arm, first thing in the morning, before you
get out of bed, before you stir. You leave it under there,
and you measure it seven days in a row, and you should be somewhere
between ninety seven point six and ninety eight point two. That's the sweet spot.
That's the area using a not a digital thermometer. Do not use a
digital thermometer. Use an all fashion find one. They have them out there,
not the mercury thermometers, but just the oral thermometers, non digital,
and take those readings. And if you're below that far below the minimum allowable
temperature basiment about a great temperature of ninety seven point six, you are under
supplying your thyroid with what it needs and you need to goost that up.
Boost that up. Go to your doctor whoever's prescribing the armor. They need
to work with you, and then they can also talk to you about certain
nutrients may need to be on, like iodine and tyrazine and zinc, selenium,
other nutrients that support thyroid function. And just a lifestyle. You know
what does exercise have to do with thyroid a lot? How about eating sugar?
Does that suppress thyroid? Yes? How about caffeine? That message your
thyroid up. You can't convert thyroid hormone on caffeine. Hope this helps out
an thank you for your phone call. We'll be right back. All Americans

It's not always easy for women to achieve better health, especially these days.
The key is to work smarter, not harder, be wise about weight
loss and workouts, eat strategically, and take your supplements. I'm best selling
nutrition author Cat James. I've learned firsthand that probiotics are key to women's health.
They protect your digestion, your immune system, your skin. They support
balanced hormonal levels, and very important for both women and men, they counter
the build up of bad bacteria and yeast in our bodies. Researchers have even
found that probiotics promote a more positive mood and mental sharpness due to the gut
brain axis. The one I take doctoral herost probiotics. It's a superior formula
with prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics, a smart advantage in these challenging times.
Find Doctoral heros probiotics through Vitamin Shop, Whole Foods, Sprouts, and other
natural health retailers, also available online. So sorry, I'm a bush of
the Big one. Never single. You're tuned into The Doctor, Bob Martin
showed if you like what you hear, let other people know all about this
radio show. Simply shot down the call letters at the radio station you're currently
listening to, the frequency on the dial, whether it's an AM or FM
station, the time of the day, and then pass it on to as
many people as you can so they have the opportunity to tune into this program
and get healthy naturally. Now, at the bottom of the hour, I
was talking about how important it is to use toothpaste and mouthwash that's rich in
zyol at all. It's really a health a simple way to extend your life
and your health span. But we can take it a step further. Did
you know that the simple act of flossing your teeth can also extend your life?
And health span. It's true, you only get one set of adult
teeth, and flossing your pearly whites could end up making a huge difference in
your life span. Flossing removes plaque from your teeth, a key contributor to
gum disease, but according to researchers at Harvard Medical School, preventing gum disease
might also help protect against heart disease. They found that gum disease could contribute
to chronic inflammation as the body reacts to continuing presence of plaque in your teeth
and ends up negatively impacting your cardiovascular system your heart. A study in the
Journal of Aging among people over the age of let's see sixty found that those

Won't you join us with a question about your own health or a health
related comment eight eight eight five five three seven two six two or one triple
eight fifty five Doctor Bob. Next up is Share. She's going from the
state of Kansas. Welcome to the program, Sherry, Hello, hello doctor.
When you were talking about birth control, Now, I'm a boomer and
I never used birth control pills, but I've read this book in the last
year or two about it's by Sarah. I think her mental initial is T,
but I'm not sure about Sarah Hill. At the time she wrote the
book in twenty nineteen, she's a professor at TCU. She does have PhD.
And it was this is your Brain on birth Control, and then the
other the subtitle was something about Unintended consequences. And I tell you what,
she would make a good guess because she really did a lot of went through
a lot of research, other people's research, and it was I really learned
a lot and I read for my granddaughter. That's good to her. That's
good, But you know how to use UM drugs for off label uses and
on birth control pills. They're giving these the young ladies um you know,
for acne stabilize their periods. And according to this lady, girls should not
go on birth control pills till they're real close to twenty because their brains are
changing so much and this messes with your brain so much. How about how
about women girls should never go on birth control pills period if it increases their
risk of depression by seventy three percent or in younger teenagers by ninety some percent,
and not only that. And it sounds like the book that you're mentioning
sounds very interesting. I'm unaware of it. I'll look into it. But
the other part of this is that it just desmodulates your entire system. What
most people don't know is that when you take birth control pills, you deplete
your body of very important nutrients. Folic acid, vitamin B two, vitamin
B six B twelve, vitamin C, vitamin E, minerals, magnesium and
zinc and selenium. These are all things that leave the body as a result
of taking birth control pills. When you try to full mother nature. To
the extent that you're stopping a normal natural process, you're going to pay for
it in some manner, and most women are not told. Look, while
you're on these birth control pills, you need to supplement with additional B complex,
vitamin C, vitamin E, and minerals because they're going to be pillaged
out of your body when you have that kind of deficiency of those vitamins.
B vitamins are important to manage stress, they're important for energy, and people
with B vitamin deficiency, yes, can become depressed. And I have all
kinds of other mental illnesses. It's been proven. So I hear what you're
saying. I totally agree with you, Sherry, and you picked up on
it with that segment that I did on birth control pills and how they can
increase depression. And I appreciate you calling into the program. Good health to
you. All right, we're gonna take a break and when we come back,

The number one health concern as we move toward and beyond the age of retirement
is fear of losing our vision and therefore the ability to remain independent. Most
of us, at some point in time have uttered the words I'm not seeing
as well as I used to, or I think I need stronger glasses.
If you are nearing or past age forty, it's not your imagination that your
vision is getting worse. What is likely causing your vision to deteriorate is cataract
formation. Cataracts occur when the lens of the eye becomes cloudy in blocks light
from entering, which interferes with sharp, clear vision. A science based cataract
reversal eye drop called CANC is changing lives of people with poor vision caused by
cataract. Learn more about CANC eyedrops at wise Choice Medicine dot com, or

Stick around, because next hour I'm gonna be launch into a problem that
is ready to happen may already have happened in the food chain, where a
large food manufacture distributor, Tyson Foods is saying they're going to add back because
they committed years ago to removing antibiotics from all of their products. Now they've
said, well, we're gonna add them back. We're gonna put antibiotics back
in the chicken at no extra arch. Well, we'll see about that when
I comment on that next hour. You won't want to miss that segment of
the program if you eat any chicken whatsoever. All right, let's finish off
with Dan, who's in Tennessee calling into the program. Dan, we have
about a minute or so left in the program, and if you can tell
me what's going on, I'll try to help you out. Sir. Yes,
there, I'm seventy six and I just started having ringing in my ears.
Okay, one thing you'll want to do is stop using caffeine. Caffeine
makes ringing in the ears worse. Next, if you're taking aspirin or ibuprofen,
and there's about two hundred and forty eight other drugs, you might want
to review that with your pharmacist or you're prescribing doctor. All two hundred and
fifty drugs can cause ringing in the ears or can exacerbate ringing in the ears.
There is a formula, a homeopathic formula that you can find in health
food stores called ring Stop. You might want to write that down ring Stop
by Natural Care Products. I would give that ninety days of help or try.
And ringing in the ear is tough. It's sort of like neuropathy within
your ears. It's the cochlear hairs within the cochlea that are malfunctioning, misfiring,
or have been mowed down due to something. There may be a medication
that you're taking that's making it worse. I don't know, but try these
simple things. And also acupuncture has been very successful at helping reduce ringing in
the ears or stop it. So if you can find an acupuncturist in your
area to get some treatments on the right points in and around the ear that
might help. There's also a technique where you can stretch your ear. Stretch
it out, hold it to thirty seconds, then pull it down, hold
it for thirty seconds and do maybe a few sets of that, not to
the point where there's pain, but just stretching your ear lobes. Just take
the whole ear with your hands in your palm, stretch it forward out and
then down thirty seconds, holding on each improving the circulation to that area.
That can even help it. Sometimes stay away from loud noises. That's a
big cause of ringing in the ears, being around law, big noise with
high decibels. And hopefully these things will help you out. Dan appreciate your
phone call. Stick around. We're coming right back. Talking about Tyson Foods
adding antibiotics back into the chicken. Not good. I'm doctor Bob Martin.
