Speaker 2: health and wellness. You've got the podcast library, which are
Speaker 2: past shows and other opportunities over there at doctor Bob
Speaker 2: dot com d octrbob dot com. All right, coming up
Speaker 2: this hour, we have for you the health alternative of
Speaker 2: the Week. We also are going to get into at
Speaker 2: the bottom of the hour, the health outrage of the week,
Speaker 2: followed by the product recall of the week, and we'll
Speaker 2: finish out the hour with the health mystery of the week.
Speaker 2: But we begin this hour with talking about your microwave oven.
Speaker 2: Everybody in America, I think, knows about microwave ovens. Most
Speaker 2: people have one, some people have two of them, and
Speaker 2: many people use microwave ovens regularly, almost every single meal.
Speaker 2: But did you know that deadly germs may be lurking
Speaker 2: in your microwave oven? It's true. Listen up if you
Speaker 2: have a microwave oven, or you know somebody who does
Speaker 2: and uses the microwave, whether it's heating up already made
Speaker 2: meal or warming up a cold cup of tea. Many
Speaker 2: Americans use microwave ovens multiple times every single day, but
Speaker 2: a new study might make you think twice before turning
Speaker 2: on your microwave appliance. Researchers at Darwin Bioprospecting Excellence in Paterna, Spain,
Speaker 2: have discovered radiation resistant microbes inside microwave ovens. These scientists,
Speaker 2: worryingly said several strains could prove deadly to humans that
Speaker 2: are percolating inside microwave ovens, unbeknownst to the users of
Speaker 2: those microwave ovens. According to the team of scientists, now
Speaker 2: they're saying that some of the species of the genera
Speaker 2: found in these domestic microwave ovens, the species called club Ziella,
Speaker 2: which when you're becoming a doctor, you have to learn
Speaker 2: about all these bugs and these microbes, and club Ziella,
Speaker 2: let me tell you, is a bad, bad microbe, a germ.
Speaker 2: You never ever want to have club Ziella. But they
Speaker 2: also discovered and Toro, caucus and aromanas in the microwave ovens,
Speaker 2: lurking just waiting to make people sick. And the fact
Speaker 2: that these researchers believe they may pose a risk to
Speaker 2: human health, and that according to Daniel Torrent, one of
Speaker 2: the authors of the scientific study. In their study, the
Speaker 2: team sampled microbes from inside thirty different microwave ovens, ten
Speaker 2: from single household kitchens, ten from shared domestic spaces such
Speaker 2: as cafeterias, and ten from specific laboratories using microwave ovens
Speaker 2: to heat food or fluids. An analysis of samples uncovered
Speaker 2: seven hundred and forty seven different bacterial microbes living in
Speaker 2: microwave ovens just lurking and they're waiting to drop into
Speaker 2: your food so that you can ingest them and get sick. Worryingly,
Speaker 2: several of these microbes, as I mentioned, clubs Yella in
Speaker 2: orcacas and arimantus, can be dangerous to humans. Clubs Yella,
Speaker 2: for example, the species can cause a range of health
Speaker 2: associated infections, including pneumonia, blood infections, wound or surgical site infections,
Speaker 2: and even meningitis. A lot of people get Clubs Yella
Speaker 2: in hospitals, by the way, I nosocomial infection in other words,
Speaker 2: an infection you get that you obtained in a hospital
Speaker 2: that you didn't walk in with and that's why there's
Speaker 2: so much death that happens in hospitals unfortunately. Andrococcus, on
Speaker 2: the other hand, another organism they're finding in microwave ovens,
Speaker 2: unbeknownst to microwave oven owners, meanwhile, have the potential to
Speaker 2: cause a range of illnesses including urinary track infections, blood
Speaker 2: stream infections, and wound infections. And then finally, the third
Speaker 2: organism that they found proliferating in all these microwave ovens
Speaker 2: that they're testing, and they feel that it's universal. This
Speaker 2: other aromaannos, a bug have been linked to gastrointestinal infections,
Speaker 2: kidney disease, cellulitis, and even meningitis. And here we're blaming
Speaker 2: it on the college kids, you know, sharing utensils when
Speaker 2: they get meningitis in college. Maybe it was their microwave
Speaker 2: oven all along, dirty microwave ovens that are causing the
Speaker 2: problem in the first place. We're learning a lot here,
Speaker 2: and based on the findings, the researchers are urging people
Speaker 2: to make sure they regularly deep clean their microwave ovens.
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't. They just roll from one
Speaker 2: meal to the other. Just flip that baby on two minutes,
Speaker 2: three minutes, they're gone, and they open it up and
Speaker 2: there they go. They've got hot food or hot drink.
Speaker 2: The researchers recommend regularly disinfecting microwaves with a diluted bleach
Speaker 2: solution or a commercially available disinfectant spray. In addition, it
Speaker 2: is in important to wipe down the interior surfaces of
Speaker 2: microwave ovens with a damp cloth after each and every use,
Speaker 2: to remove any residue of food or drink, and clean
Speaker 2: up spills immediately to prevent the growth of bacteria because
Speaker 2: you may not be able to see this stuff splattering
Speaker 2: through the container that it's impeded happens. And not only that,
Speaker 2: all the plastics and everything they're floating around in there
Speaker 2: as well and combining with the food molecules. My personal
Speaker 2: opinion of microwave ovens use is fine. Heating water up
Speaker 2: poses no danger. Just stay back away from the machine
Speaker 2: when it's on at least three feet because every single
Speaker 2: microwave oven leaks. You don't believe me, They all leak.
Speaker 2: They all leak microwaves out. If you're standing right in
Speaker 2: front of it, or a kid standing in front of it,
Speaker 2: they're watching a little thing go around and around around.
Speaker 2: You got them up on a chair. It's cute, right, No,
Speaker 2: it's not. Their eyeballs are being microwaved. And if you
Speaker 2: don't believe me, place your cell phone in your microwave oven,
Speaker 2: close the door, and try calling it from another phone.
Speaker 2: It rings. Wait a minute, how did that happen? I
Speaker 2: thought it was leak proof. I thought that none of
Speaker 2: the microwaves could get out of that oven, or anything
Speaker 2: could get in while it was on. No, not true.
Speaker 2: All microwave ovens leak. Try the experiment. Put your cell
Speaker 2: phone in there. Don't turn the microwave oven on. By
Speaker 2: the way, just call your cell phone when the microwave
Speaker 2: oven is off. When you slam the door, your phone
Speaker 2: is in there. Your cell phone, go to a landline,
Speaker 2: go to somebody else's cell phone and call that line
Speaker 2: and you'll hear it ring. And the reason that it's
Speaker 2: able to ring is because it's leaking and other things
Speaker 2: can get in and get out. So if you have
Speaker 2: a microwave oven your food is in plastic containers, it
Speaker 2: can hasten the rate at which potentially cancer causing chemicals
Speaker 2: can leach out into your food plastics, which are petrochemicals.
Speaker 2: Because all these these quick, easy ready foods and plastic,
Speaker 2: if you put them in there, the plastics being heated
Speaker 2: up as being just woven right into your food. Additionally,
Speaker 2: microwaving creates new compounds that are not found in humans
Speaker 2: or in nature, called radiolytic compounds. You don't want radiolytic
Speaker 2: compounds in your body. We don't yet know what these
Speaker 2: compounds can do to the body. So there you have it.
Speaker 2: Deadly germs. I'll cover the answer to this, at least
Speaker 2: from the germs vantage point in the health alternative of
Speaker 2: the week. Stay tuned. I'm doctor Bob Martin. I can
Speaker 2: be assay, Doctor Bob Martin back with you. I'm here

Speaker 2: about how these deadly germs may be lurking in your
Speaker 2: microwave of and to you, and they could contaminate the
Speaker 2: food or beverage that you're going to enjoy. I'm not
Speaker 2: a big fan of microwave ovens, I gotta tell you,
Speaker 2: I'm not for a lot of reasons. So use it
Speaker 2: minimally if at all, or like maybe heating water up
Speaker 2: or something. But if you are going to use microwave ovens,
Speaker 2: and a lot of people are, they're convenient. I mean,
Speaker 2: they've changed a lot of lives. They change lives just
Speaker 2: from the standpoint of practicality and time efficiency. I get that,
Speaker 2: I understand it. But so many of these microwave ovens,
Speaker 2: the researchers are finding, have all these germs lurking around
Speaker 2: and there that can make you sick, and you want
Speaker 2: to make sure that you clean them out, but you
Speaker 2: don't want to use harsh chemicals. Therefore, we have for you,
Speaker 2: once again the solution to the dilemma. We call it
Speaker 2: a health alternative of the week. Here we go, all right.
Speaker 2: The health alternative of the week is about just that.

Speaker 2: other part of your home, your kitchen area, wherever you

Speaker 2: the only game in town is to use harsh, destructive, unhealthy,
Speaker 2: health robbing chemicals. You do not have to use those.
Speaker 2: You don't have to expose yourself or your family to

Speaker 2: Caller Hotline. Now coming up, We're going to have for
Speaker 2: you the health outrage of the Week, followed by the
Speaker 2: product recall of the Week. But first I wanted to
Speaker 2: circle back and remind you that if you were not
Speaker 2: with us during the first hour of the program today,
Speaker 2: we had a very special dynamic guest on by the
Speaker 2: name of Nathan Jones, CEO of Clear, Inc. Talking about
Speaker 2: the importance of being exposed to on a daily basis
Speaker 2: with your oral care products, being exposed to xylotol in
Speaker 2: your toothpaste, mouthwash, rents, gum, and mints in order to
Speaker 2: reduce your risk of dental decay, periodonal disease, gendivitis, and
Speaker 2: other dental related oral health problems. Further, we talked about
Speaker 2: Clear nasal sprays and how xylotol being inserted into the
Speaker 2: nasal cavity and a nasal spray can help reduce the
Speaker 2: germs and the microbes that can bring you down big time.
Speaker 2: And how it was discovered with Nathan's father, who is
Speaker 2: a physician himself, and how he was able to conquer
Speaker 2: the childhood ear infections in his own medical practice which
Speaker 2: were resistant to antibiotics. It just didn't work in otitis
Speaker 2: media or middle ear infections. And so many of these
Speaker 2: children in his own practice, and even his granddaughters were
Speaker 2: or was facing a surgery where they have to punch
Speaker 2: a hole in the tympatic membrane the ear drum to
Speaker 2: put tubes into drain out because these children are crying,
Speaker 2: they're in pain because while the pressure building up in
Speaker 2: the middle of layer. Well, they were able to solve
Speaker 2: that by having the child chew xylotol and use xylotol
Speaker 2: as a saline in the nasal spray to kill the
Speaker 2: germs that are responsible for these infections. Long story short,
Speaker 2: that's how clear Ink was formed. That's the genesis of
Speaker 2: the company that now provides us Spry dental defense system.
Speaker 2: I use it every day, my wife does, Mike children do,
Speaker 2: and many of my wise healthcare colleagues use this because
Speaker 2: they know the science behind it. They know if they
Speaker 2: use it. We know if we use it, we're going
Speaker 2: to reduce our risk of dental problems, dental cavities, dental
Speaker 2: issues across the board. And when we see our dental
Speaker 2: hygienist in the dentists, they are impressed because our teeth
Speaker 2: and gums are a lot healthier. And you don't have
Speaker 2: to worry because the Spry toothpaste and mouthrins comes in peppermint,
Speaker 2: cinnamon inspiment, so you're going to like something there and
Speaker 2: the gum of the mints delicious. Same company that makes
Speaker 2: the Clear Nasal Spray family, whether it be the regular
Speaker 2: one or the one that's the Rescue formula, which is
Speaker 2: the one I love and use, and you should find
Speaker 2: out more about that too, Clear Rescue Nasal Spray or
Speaker 2: the Spry Dental Defense System. They're available at CBS and
Speaker 2: write aid pharmacies, Target vitamin shops, Sprouts, and all natural
Speaker 2: grocers stores. For more information, go to their website Clear
Speaker 2: dot com x l e a R dot com x
Speaker 2: L e a r dot com for the Spry Sbry
Speaker 2: Dental Defense System and the Clear Nasal Spray families. All right,
Speaker 2: it's time now for the health outrage of the week.
Speaker 2: She's don't come on east for the Hillbridge. It's nothing
Speaker 2: but it is outrageous and I want to bring it
Speaker 2: to your attention and it needs to change as soon
Speaker 2: as possible. And that is women less likely to get
Speaker 2: correct treatment in the emergency room or the er department
Speaker 2: of hospitals because they're viewed as hysterical and exaggerating. Women
Speaker 2: presenting to emergency departments in pain are less likely to
Speaker 2: receive medications for their pain they need to treat compared
Speaker 2: to men. That's what new research is showing. An analysis
Speaker 2: of discharge notes of more than twenty one thousand patients
Speaker 2: from the state of Missouri and the country of Israel
Speaker 2: showed that female patients were less likely to be prescribed
Speaker 2: pain medication and their symptoms were more likely to be
Speaker 2: dismissed because doctors who saw them believe that they were
Speaker 2: hysterical and exaggerating. How outrageous is that, ladies and gentlemen,
Speaker 2: Doctor Alice Giles Hillel, a co author and doctor of
Speaker 2: Hidasha Hebrew University Medical Center in Jerusalem, said, and I
Speaker 2: quote women are viewed as exaggerating and hysterical, and men
Speaker 2: are viewed as more stoic when they complain about pain
Speaker 2: close quote. It is the latest evidence ladies and gentlemen
Speaker 2: of sex bias in conventional medical circles in medicine, with
Speaker 2: women also less likely to be treated for a heart
Speaker 2: attack than men. I mean, how outrageous is that MD
Speaker 2: physicians put sex bias in medicine to the test by
Speaker 2: presenting both male and female nurses with identical fictional vignettes
Speaker 2: about a male patient and a female patient presenting with
Speaker 2: severe back pain. Well, the first thing they should have
Speaker 2: done is referred them to the proper healthcare provider, a
Speaker 2: chiropractic physician, instead of treating them with those toxic drugs
Speaker 2: that don't work for back pain anyway. But I digress.
Speaker 2: When asked to assign a pain management score to male
Speaker 2: and female patients who had back pain with the exact
Speaker 2: same complaint and history, nurses perceived female patients pain as
Speaker 2: less intense and less deserving of treatment. Another outrage, of course,
Speaker 2: pain is subjective, and doctors and nurses rely on patients
Speaker 2: to rate it on a scale of one to ten,
Speaker 2: with ten being unbearable the worst. Medical professionals decide whether
Speaker 2: to administer pain medication or pain drugs and how strong
Speaker 2: it should be based on the patient's history. What they're
Speaker 2: telling them well. The latest research published in the proceedings
Speaker 2: of the National I Mean of Sciences reported that women,
Speaker 2: even when rating their pain as high on a scale,
Speaker 2: we're nearly twenty percent less likely to give pain, to
Speaker 2: get or to receive from mds. We're less likely to
Speaker 2: get pain drugs or pain medication than men even when
Speaker 2: their self reported pain ratings were the same. What a
Speaker 2: double standard, that is. What an outrage it is to
Speaker 2: treat women differently than men when it comes to pain
Speaker 2: or comes to heart attack symptoms. This needs to change,
Speaker 2: and that's why I qualified as the health outrage of
Speaker 2: the week. You are tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show.

Speaker 2: has received hundreds of reports of unintentional activation of the
Speaker 2: front mounted knobs by humans or pets. These ranges have
Speaker 2: been involved in at least two hundred and fifty fires,
Speaker 2: and at least eighteen of the fires caused extensive property damage.
Speaker 2: Approximately forty injuries have been reported, eight of which required
Speaker 2: medical attention. There were reports involving seven fires involving pet deaths.
Speaker 2: The remedy consumers should contact Samsung to receive a free
Speaker 2: set of knobs and knoblocks to cover compatible with their
Speaker 2: model of electric slide in range to install. Consumers using
Speaker 2: the recalled ranges without knoblocks or covers are cautioned to
Speaker 2: keep children and pets away from the knobs, to check
Speaker 2: the range knobs to ensure they are not gonna be
Speaker 2: in trouble now. These were purchased, by the way, just
Speaker 2: so you know, Samsung Electric slide in ranges. They were
Speaker 2: purchased at best Buy, Costco, Home Depot, Lows and other
Speaker 2: appliance stores nationwide or online at Samsung dot com, depending
Speaker 2: on the model, and the ranges were sold for anywhere
Speaker 2: between twelve hundred dollars to three thousand dollars and as
Speaker 2: I mentioned, one million, one hundred and twenty thousand and
Speaker 2: nine hundred and five of these units went out. So
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people listening inside of my voice
Speaker 2: that may have these Samsung slide in electric ranges in
Speaker 2: their kitchens and they don't even know about the hazard.
Speaker 2: That's why we do the product recall of the week
Speaker 2: so that you keep informed where were they manufactured? Well,
Speaker 2: luckily they weren't manufactured in China. We're almost always telling
Speaker 2: you about these recall products in China, but this one
Speaker 2: was manufactured in Thailand. Thailand. All right, that's the product
Speaker 2: recall of the week. Let's get too. There's other news
Speaker 2: that I wanted to share with you today, and it's
Speaker 2: about cucumbers and apple peeling. For hell's sake, you know,
Speaker 2: everybody thinks that washing their fruit and their veggies is
Speaker 2: gonna wash away the pesticides like raid on the fruit
Speaker 2: and veggies that you get in a conventional grocery store.
Speaker 2: Just isn't so, folks. Those pesticides and fungicides and insecticize
Speaker 2: all these things that are sprayed there may have been
Speaker 2: sprayed on these products, these plants when they were like seedlings,
Speaker 2: and so they become incorporated. You can't wash that off.
Speaker 2: Washing fruit and vegetable before eating is common practice in
Speaker 2: most American households because they know that this stuff is
Speaker 2: used extensively, especially in the United States. These toxic sprays
Speaker 2: that are cancer causing. But new research suggests that this
Speaker 2: might not be enough to eliminate potentially harmful cancer causing
Speaker 2: pesticides from your produce. And this gives rise to why
Speaker 2: you need to find a grocery store natural grocers that
Speaker 2: sell one hundred percent USDA certified organic produce. There isn't
Speaker 2: a single piece of produce in their fruits or veggies
Speaker 2: that do not get that stamp of approval. That's why
Speaker 2: natural grocers is a perfect choice if you can, or
Speaker 2: any grocery store that says it has one hundred percent
Speaker 2: USDA certified produce. Experts at this university that discovered this
Speaker 2: used a highly sensitive film to pick up traces of
Speaker 2: chemical pesticides that other tests fail to spot. Tests on
Speaker 2: apples and cucumbers, as what as other foods like shrimp,
Speaker 2: rice found that washing foods did not did not eliminate
Speaker 2: traces of pesticides that have been linked to cancer. The
Speaker 2: scientists say their findings offer evidence that washing fruit and
Speaker 2: vegetables is in sufficient and suggest peeling foods like apples
Speaker 2: and cucumbers instead. Well, that's unfortunate because when you peel it,
Speaker 2: when you peel an apple and you peel a cucumber off,
Speaker 2: you're losing the outside cover, which is packed full of
Speaker 2: anti cancer nutrients and other antioxidants and nutrients you need
Speaker 2: and want so to me. Yeah, it's it's okay to
Speaker 2: peel it, but you're losing a part of the plant.
Speaker 2: You need to help your health out, why not just
Speaker 2: get organic and eat the whole thing in the first place.
Speaker 2: That's the goal, that's the idea. All right, we're coming
Speaker 2: back with the Health Mystery of the week. You're tuned
Speaker 2: into the Doctor Bob Martin Show. You go down. It's
Speaker 2: the Doctor Bob Martin Show, and we so appreciate you
Speaker 2: tuning into the program today. Thank you for that. Now,
Speaker 2: we have been so busy with health related content, we
Speaker 2: haven't been able to take callers. But let's go ahead
Speaker 2: and go to the call. A couple of calls before
Speaker 2: we get to the health Mystery of the week. Here's
Speaker 2: Michael in Lake Kavasoo City, Arizona.
Speaker 4: Michael, Lake Havasu City, Arizona, and I wanted to ask
Speaker 4: about iodine allergies.
Speaker 2: Okay, some people have iodine sensitivity or allergy. Iidine allergy
Speaker 2: is unlikely, but because iodine, you know, sensitivity is there,
Speaker 2: it's possible. But iodine is an essential mineral Michael to
Speaker 2: human health with respect to your thyroid hormone production. So
Speaker 2: if you suspect you have iodine sensitivity your allergy, get
Speaker 2: a blood test and you can nail that down to
Speaker 2: find out if you have it. Because if you're eating
Speaker 2: anything with seaweed or tuna or shrimp or eggs or
Speaker 2: any salt in anything like, you're getting eyed on exposure.
Speaker 2: So find out it's probably not that. But if it
Speaker 2: is that way, you can look for elimination of certain things.
Speaker 2: And I thank you for your phone call. Next up
Speaker 2: we have a caller comment.
Speaker 4: Yes, this is a listener that I want everyone to
Speaker 4: know that they can have their pacemaker set to get
Speaker 4: rid of a trial fibrillation. I had it done about
Speaker 4: two weeks ago. I want the world to know that
Speaker 4: you can get your pacemaker with three wires. Mine has
Speaker 4: three wires. You can get it set so that it
Speaker 4: gets rid of atrial fibrillation. Thank you very much.
Speaker 2: Well, he was one of the lucky people. Who made
Speaker 2: it through the pacemaker. You can also get your pacemaker
Speaker 2: or your heart regulated electrically if you solve the magnesium
Speaker 2: deficiency which often starts a trial fibrillation, or you get
Speaker 2: off the caffeine, or you lower your stress, or maybe
Speaker 2: some other medication is causing that. Yes, pacemakers can help
Speaker 2: people out for sure, but they can also kill people too.
Speaker 2: All right, thank you for your phone call. Next up,
Speaker 2: we have the health mystery of the week. Well neurologists
Speaker 2: attempt to explain why millions of Americans have been struck
Speaker 2: by mysterious migraines about a week and a half ago.
Speaker 2: If you were struck by an unexplained headache, you are
Speaker 2: not alone. Doctors say storms along the East Coast would
Speaker 2: have caused migraine misery for millions of Americans, even those
Speaker 2: who aren't normally prone to them. While the true mechanism
Speaker 2: is unknown, this could be due to changes in the
Speaker 2: atmospheric pressure that come with heavy rain and humidity. When
Speaker 2: this pressure decreases, more air floods into the sinuses, leading
Speaker 2: to head pain and head sinus pain. And extreme weather
Speaker 2: like thunder and an intense wind sets off electrical signals
Speaker 2: in the brain that can cause this pain. Well that's
Speaker 2: all good and fine, ladies and gentlemen, but hey, we're
Speaker 2: all part of atmospheric pressure. We're all part of the atmosphere.
Speaker 2: But only a certain amount of people get these headaches
Speaker 2: from the change, which means those people will already compromise.
Speaker 2: They're already marginal with something, and it just takes the
Speaker 2: proverbial straw to break the camel's back. Find out what
Speaker 2: the other causes are. A lot of cause is the
Speaker 2: neck problem. See the chiropractor for neck distortion. Or get
Speaker 2: food allergies tested or hormones tested. That's the health mystery
Speaker 2: of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martin.
