Speaker 1: My Billy Cunningham, the Great America. Welcome, there's a wonderful
Speaker 1: Wednesday after in the Tri State Reds baseball last night
Speaker 1: they were impregnable, unbeatable, and they beat up on their
Speaker 1: Kansas City Royals. Play again tonight starting about six forty
Speaker 1: first bitch about seven forty Ella Dela Cruz is sitting
Speaker 1: two home runs about total of about one thousand feet unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Off tomorrow then back out of Chicago. But until then,
Speaker 1: I try my best as much as I can. Every
Speaker 1: day or two to watch Liz Bonus and the Power
Speaker 1: of twelve the Medical Reporter, all the health issues going on,
Speaker 1: and I discover things like vaccines, when to take them,
Speaker 1: when not to take them, vacation hoarding. We're going to
Speaker 1: talk about that gloom and doom. We're going to talk
Speaker 1: about building testosterone and men and women, yes women, I
Speaker 1: think if some testosterone plus the new COVID nineteen variant
Speaker 1: spreads rapidly in the US, experts warn plus we're told
Speaker 1: by the federal government that if you're a healthy child,
Speaker 1: don't get the vaccine COVID, and if you're pregnant with
Speaker 1: a healthy child, don't get the vaccine. That is COVID nineteen.
Speaker 1: But the woman with all the answers is Liz Bonus.
Speaker 1: Liz Bonus, Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham showing Liz,
Speaker 1: how are you? Hey?
Speaker 2: I am doing great and so far I don't think
Speaker 2: I've had this NB dot one dot eight dot one
Speaker 2: new COVID variant.
Speaker 3: Say that again, what is it?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Let me right, So it's NB dot one dot eight
Speaker 2: dot one and it is going crazy in China right now.
Speaker 2: And you know what happens to us, Those lovely little
Speaker 2: variants for COVID don't understand the border control that we've
Speaker 2: been working on. Yeah, and it's already here. They've tested
Speaker 2: it in free airport studies. You know, they know like
Speaker 2: where it is. Hey, have you ever gone into an
Speaker 2: airport and they said, let me swab your nose?
Speaker 1: It hadn't happened yet. I'm sure well at some point,
Speaker 1: but I'm not been swabbed in an airport. No.
Speaker 2: So just so you know, they have these sites set
Speaker 2: up especially for international travelers. So if you go to
Speaker 2: another country and you come back, they'll say, can we
Speaker 2: swab your nose? And that's how they find out like
Speaker 2: what variants are coming in and they're doing this around
Speaker 2: at airports, and this COVID thing has not stopped. I know,
Speaker 2: like you know, RFK Junior is saying that he doesn't
Speaker 2: want these vaccines for healthy people, and he doesn't want
Speaker 2: them for pregnant women. But there are experians that are
Speaker 2: coming here that we do not have immunity to. So
Speaker 2: we should be thinking that we should have options.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, is the new COVID vaccine which I
Speaker 1: will not take, by the way, I just I'm done
Speaker 1: with that. But should I be done with? Because I'm
Speaker 1: like a normal, god fearing American. I took four or
Speaker 1: five COVID shots, did it all in the last year
Speaker 1: or two.
Speaker 3: I said, to hell with it.
Speaker 1: Head on the cardiologist about a year or two ago,
Speaker 1: who said, the interior walls of cardiac arteries are being
Speaker 1: infected and weakened, either by either by COVID itself or
Speaker 1: by the vaccine or by pax slovin. We're not sure
Speaker 1: yet five or ten years we might know. I've had
Speaker 1: two or three buddies that got COVID, got the vaccine,
Speaker 1: did it all, and that they died of heart problems.
Speaker 1: I was told by doctor Fauci that if you get
Speaker 1: the vaccine, and Joe Biden said, if you get the vaccine,
Speaker 1: you can't get COVID and you can't pass it on
Speaker 1: the government's been misrepresenting the facts to us for so long.
Speaker 1: What do you believe, Liz Bonus? We rely upon you
Speaker 1: for the facts. What are the facts? There's a question
Speaker 1: in there somewhere. Can you answer it?
Speaker 2: I can answer it. So the current vaccine would cover
Speaker 2: you for this newest variant because it's like a cousin
Speaker 2: still if they're drifters. We've got some immunity, so you
Speaker 2: could get a vaccine, or if you've had COVID, you
Speaker 2: may have immunity to this. That is what we did
Speaker 2: not have when this virus first came out. Remember it
Speaker 2: was the novel virus. So you probably have some immunity now.
Speaker 2: And if you choose not to get another COVID nineteen vaccine,
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: I tell you that there are some populations, especially older adults.
Speaker 2: I mean, well, they like three hundred people a week,
Speaker 2: are still dying from COVID nineteen. If three hundred people
Speaker 2: we were dying from chicken pox, we'd be saying something.
Speaker 1: That's that's like a fully loaded plane going down every week.
Speaker 1: Is what if there's seven forty sevens crashing every week,
Speaker 1: that'd be a crisis. So you're saying two hundred people,
Speaker 1: are they healthy, unhealthy, or they're going to die? All
Speaker 1: of us are going to die anyway, But did they
Speaker 1: have something else? You know?
Speaker 3: What is it? Is it helpful?
Speaker 2: When I talk to our infectious to these people here,
Speaker 2: they tell me that most of the people in the hospital,
Speaker 2: which would be the ones who would at risk for
Speaker 2: dying from COVID still do have other comorbidities, do have
Speaker 2: other complications. So you shouldn't say nobody should get a vaccine,
Speaker 2: and you probably shouldn't say everybody should get a vaccine.
Speaker 2: I do like the idea of making it suggested for
Speaker 2: high risk groups, but the concern is that to say,
Speaker 2: you know, no kids need it isn't true either, because
Speaker 2: there are kids with comorbidities. And then to say no,
Speaker 2: no women need it isn't accurate either because pregnancy is
Speaker 2: considered a high risk group. So what if you're pregnant
Speaker 2: and you have diabetes already and you have several other
Speaker 2: major health problems. You know, you're now thinking, oh, I
Speaker 2: don't need to do that, and maybe you should ask
Speaker 2: your obgyn what that person thinks, because it may be
Speaker 2: something that you and your baby could be protected from.
Speaker 2: And there's all kinds of complications when mom gets that
Speaker 2: and a baby's in utero and gets it too. So
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a one size fits all, which
Speaker 2: is what we want to hear.
Speaker 1: You know what, I You have to rely upon your
Speaker 1: own doctor in whom you trust, and many people don't
Speaker 1: have doctors. There's a whole group of Americans living in
Speaker 1: the Tri State that don't have a regular activity with
Speaker 1: a doctor. For some reason. I see doctors all the time.
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I guess I pay my bills
Speaker 1: and they want to make sure I'm probe correctly. I
Speaker 1: know my PSA numbers. Despite Joe Biden, I think lying
Speaker 1: to us about not knowing he had stage four price
Speaker 1: day cancer that it's a different issue. But if you
Speaker 1: don't have regular access to a doctor, there's a whole
Speaker 1: group of people out there, probably the majority of Tri
Speaker 1: State residents that don't have a doctor they can see
Speaker 1: every three to six months to check things out, and
Speaker 1: so they wait till a crisis happens. Then they show
Speaker 1: up in an er and then it's too late. So
Speaker 1: you're saying, what do you say if you're a healthy
Speaker 1: woman with a healthy baby and no underlying conditions. Let's
Speaker 1: say you're twenty five years old and you're pregnant and
Speaker 1: the OB's telling you baby's fine, you're fine, you have
Speaker 1: no underlying conditions. Should you get the vaccine?
Speaker 2: I think that it would depend on if when you
Speaker 2: were pregnant. So say you're pregnant, and because again you
Speaker 2: can be healthy and that's still considered a high risk condition,
Speaker 2: and say there's a new variant now sweeping the country,
Speaker 2: say that one's coming in from China, that we don't
Speaker 2: have any immunity too. You should be talking to your
Speaker 2: doctor about what you what might protect you because if
Speaker 2: you get that new variant, you know you can end
Speaker 2: up in the hall and it can do really harsh
Speaker 2: things to your baby. We know that from the flu.
Speaker 2: So I can't say nobody should now. I would like
Speaker 2: to think that if it's right now, when all my
Speaker 2: infectious that these people say so far our levels are low,
Speaker 2: then you know that's probably a reasonable thing not to
Speaker 2: have that. But you know, what, where do you ever go?
Speaker 2: Where there's one medical recommendation for everyone, never Yeah, And
Speaker 2: so I think that we just want one thing to
Speaker 2: be the answer. And so it's kind of misleading to say,
Speaker 2: you know, we're not going to give this to we're
Speaker 2: not going to recommend it for pregnant women, and we're
Speaker 2: not going to recommend it for kids. And it's healthy kids.
Speaker 2: You know, if you talk to doctors and children and
Speaker 2: they'll tell you they have a lot of children with,
Speaker 2: you know, several illnesses that they are very much at
Speaker 2: risk for lung problems and COVID could do horrible things
Speaker 2: to them. So they might recommend if there's a new
Speaker 2: vaccine that comes out in the fall, that a certain
Speaker 2: child would get it. And you know what they'll tell
Speaker 2: you is like if I could predict which kids would
Speaker 2: and which kids wouldn't, we wouldn't tell everybody to the
Speaker 2: problem is we don't know, and healthy people have died
Speaker 2: of COVID nineteen. We all know that. So I don't
Speaker 2: think that this is as cut and dry as we
Speaker 2: want to make it out to be. I think that
Speaker 2: when we started it was a broad recommendation because nobody
Speaker 2: had any immunity. It was a novel virus, I think
Speaker 2: now you could argue that you have some immunity so
Speaker 2: far to many of the variants and if you're willing
Speaker 2: to take your chances. But you know, I got an
Speaker 2: eighty year old mama just got out of the hospital,
Speaker 2: and she's had COVID like three times. We'll not get
Speaker 2: the vaccine, and she has a chronic lung condition. She
Speaker 2: gets really sick. Like we're surprised every time she's been
Speaker 2: able to get out of the hospital. The next time
Speaker 2: she might not. And that's that's really scary to me.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 1: I'm a hairy ass man, and I'm thinking, you know what,
Speaker 1: I can withstand this. But we men tend not to
Speaker 1: want to go to doctors anyway, and just so we
Speaker 1: avoid that. I'll never go to the doctor and get
Speaker 1: good news. You know, I always go to the doctor. Well,
Speaker 1: you got checked, and men just don't want to go
Speaker 1: to Can you answer that question? How come you ladies
Speaker 1: love to go to the doctor but men don't.
Speaker 3: Can you tell me why?
Speaker 2: So? I think it's the same thing about asking directions.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't have it.
Speaker 2: So that was the thing that came out of you
Speaker 2: mentioned the Biden prospect cancer thing. And you know, all
Speaker 2: the doctors I talked about that said he may have
Speaker 2: not been getting regular tests for a PSA because it's
Speaker 2: not something that is necessarily something that every doctor does anymore.
Speaker 2: A lot of people think, if you want it, I'll
Speaker 2: give it to you. But it's not kind of a
Speaker 2: mandatory standard. And so he could have been tested when
Speaker 2: he was in the sixties and seventies and they stopped
Speaker 2: now and then he gets something very aggressive and in
Speaker 2: a very short amount of time. My oncologists have said
Speaker 2: that I've talked to, have said that that could spread quickly.
Speaker 2: And the first thing they said was, guys, just go
Speaker 2: to the doctor, you know, like, just go and ask
Speaker 2: if that's something you should need. But I think it's
Speaker 2: because you were made to be the strong one. Like
Speaker 2: we take care of others. We don't take care of ourselves,
Speaker 2: and that's how you're wired. But in this case, taking
Speaker 2: care of you allows you to take care of others.
Speaker 2: So we know a lot more about these things now.
Speaker 1: All right, now, let's move on a testosterone which is
Speaker 1: a big business. Many commercials, you've seen them, I've seen them.
Speaker 1: It's a darling couple maybe in two bathtubs, overlooking the
Speaker 1: Pacific Ocean. They're sitting there holding hands, I guess, naked
Speaker 1: in the bathtub, looking at each other, and the time
Speaker 1: is right and you know, here comes siallis the blue pill,
Speaker 1: whatever it might be. And you had a segment about
Speaker 1: testosterone boosting foods. Instead of waiting for that special moment
Speaker 1: in a bathtub overlooking the Pacific Ocean with your wife
Speaker 1: or girlfriend, you can actually help things along with testosterone
Speaker 1: boosting foods.
Speaker 3: What are some Okay, so this is interesting.
Speaker 2: Won't be a substitute if you were doctor measures your
Speaker 2: testosterone and says, hey, you need these injections because once
Speaker 2: you are low, it's very hard for any food to
Speaker 2: build something up. And that's true with other nutrients like
Speaker 2: calcium and iron and things like that too. But the
Speaker 2: best things and you're gonna love this, fatty fish and
Speaker 2: oysters top the list. Those salmon, mackerel, tuna, oysters didn't
Speaker 2: really tell you they're good for Yeah, yeah, oysters great
Speaker 2: sources of zinc. And we know that that is a
Speaker 2: mineral needed for testosterone to do we call synthesized in
Speaker 2: the body and kind of get to the place that
Speaker 2: needs to go. So start with your seafoods. If you
Speaker 2: don't need seafood three times a week, you're not getting
Speaker 2: up for your heart. You're not getting enough for the
Speaker 2: boys to be doing what they're supposed to be doing.
Speaker 1: Now, now you know someone you would know the answer
Speaker 1: to this. I am told to eat fish that swim
Speaker 1: at the top of the ocean, and don't crawl along
Speaker 1: the bottom, because at the bottom there's all kind of
Speaker 1: stuff going down there that these critters, I guess, like
Speaker 1: clams and shrimp, eat that.
Speaker 3: Salmon and tuna may not. Am I right or wrong?
Speaker 2: You're wrong. The reason we tell you not to do
Speaker 2: the bottom fishers is what do you always hear about
Speaker 2: bottom fish? A good not a good thing to do?
Speaker 2: Uh So when I think of bottom feeders, I think
Speaker 2: of catfish, you know that really like go along the
Speaker 2: bottom and clean it up. Shrimp is high in cholesterol,
Speaker 2: so we don't recommend you eat that three days a week.
Speaker 2: But it's a low fat, really good, high protein food.
Speaker 2: So I wouldn't tell you not to eat shrimp for sure.
Speaker 2: I would tell you that salmon and things like that
Speaker 2: are the healthiest of fishes because of those omega free
Speaker 2: fatty acids and those omega threes we think help increase
Speaker 2: the thoughts through levels in the body. So good thing. Now,
Speaker 2: the problem is you can't only eat oysters and only
Speaker 2: fatty fish because you need other nutrients to get these
Speaker 2: things like all into your body. And so that means
Speaker 2: when in doubt, eat what.
Speaker 3: Lily eat a lot chocolate.
Speaker 2: That's a guy. That's a guy thing. Win in doubt,
Speaker 2: eat broccoli you don't know the answer, Yeah, breefy. Vegetables
Speaker 2: win every time. Whenever you don't know the answer, win
Speaker 2: a Dicesian. I'm a Dietisian by trade. So whenever a
Speaker 2: Dicisi ask do you win it out?
Speaker 1: Eat?
Speaker 2: Your next words are always going to be broccoli. I
Speaker 2: don'tbles you don't like broccoli? Oh man, I can literally
Speaker 2: like sit down and eat an entire head of broccoli
Speaker 2: for a meal. There's a couple of restaurants in town.
Speaker 2: I can tell you right where to go for the
Speaker 2: best broccoli.
Speaker 3: Oh delicious, forgive me one. I'll talk to my wife.
Speaker 3: May she loves broccoli? Maybe?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Where do I go?
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you like Jay Alexander's has some of
Speaker 2: the best broccoli could ever eat. Ruby's has some of
Speaker 2: the best Brussels sprouts, which would give you the same thing,
Speaker 2: you know, like you can get their bacon cooks and
Speaker 2: all that, but that doesn't take away the goodness spinach
Speaker 2: and green leafy vegetables. If you're looking for a good
Speaker 2: spinach salad, there's a couple of places in Covington where
Speaker 2: if you just go to those, you know, kind of
Speaker 2: you go down to the main district there and walk around,
Speaker 2: there's the best finish salad and all those leafy greens
Speaker 2: that loaded with magnesium and they boost your fosterone. And
Speaker 2: by the way, women can have flow testosterone too if
Speaker 2: you feel sluggish and things like that. We often have
Speaker 2: many of the same symptoms, not the same cause, but
Speaker 2: like if you've had certain medical conditions, you're on certain
Speaker 2: medications or and sometimes even just with women in age,
Speaker 2: are testosterone declines too. So we should eat all these
Speaker 2: things as well.
Speaker 1: How come all these advertisers and pills and clinics are
Speaker 1: there to help men to get things started, but the ladies,
Speaker 1: the women, the girls are ignored because I don't think
Speaker 1: there's like a little blue pill for women. I don't
Speaker 1: think women have the women's health clinic ready to do
Speaker 1: whatever to jump start thinks, how come these things are
Speaker 1: focused only on men and not women.
Speaker 2: Why because you have greater amounts of testosterone, So when
Speaker 2: you drop you notice things more so than women. But
Speaker 2: the symptoms are often the same. But by the way,
Speaker 2: there is a little pink pill for women to see.
Speaker 3: You know what's it called a martini.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you haven't gotten the the same promotion as a
Speaker 2: little blue pill, but it can be taken with low libido.
Speaker 2: And the problem was that we didn't see the same
Speaker 2: pardon the pun boost in women that we did in me.
Speaker 2: Right in other words, like yeah, why they when they
Speaker 2: look at sexual activity like on average and increase, you know,
Speaker 2: like two more times a month, whereas we look at
Speaker 2: guys and you give them the blue pill and it
Speaker 2: increases like twelve more times a month. So when when
Speaker 2: you make the comparison, it wasn't like this huge jump,
Speaker 2: but it was enough that some women said they experienced it.
Speaker 2: So just so you know, you or your spouse or
Speaker 2: your partner, you can both have these conversations and if
Speaker 2: you're not feeling the love, it's not a bad thing
Speaker 2: to go again. As you said, see a doctor. Imagine that,
Speaker 2: and your doctor can actually help you with the testosterone,
Speaker 2: say you don't need all the special clinics. They could
Speaker 2: do that stuff too. Imagine that.
Speaker 1: I can only imagine if a guy takes takes a
Speaker 1: blue pill and a woman takes the pink pill, then
Speaker 1: what happens?
Speaker 2: You have? Yeah, man, you have like some of the
Speaker 2: best nights you've ever had.
Speaker 3: I could use a few.
Speaker 2: Days or afternoons or weekends or however you want here,
Speaker 2: I could use it.
Speaker 1: A Liz Bonus when he didn't get to vocate vacation hoarding.
Speaker 1: And I love the story you did on this guy
Speaker 1: that began U in a dishroom ends up as a nurse,
Speaker 1: which I think is a fabulous story because we need
Speaker 1: more of that. But once again, Liz Bonus, channel trouve.
Speaker 1: We got to run, but thanks for coming on the
Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham Show.
Speaker 3: Next time we've.
Speaker 1: Got to talk about vacation hoarding and why some people
Speaker 1: do it. But Liz Bonus, thank you very much.
Speaker 2: Hey, great to talk to you. Willie, pleasures all mine,
Speaker 2: go enjoy that little blue deal.
Speaker 1: It would be Liz Bonus, thank you very much. All right,
Speaker 1: let's continue with more news next at your home of
Speaker 1: the Reds News Radio seven hundreds WLW
