Is an absolute pleasure and honor to 59 00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:15.560 be here and have the opportunity to discuss relevant health 60 00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:19.240 topics with you. Is somebody that I look up up 61 00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:20.600 to as a as a mentor. 62 00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:25.639 Well, thank you for that I took. It was a 63 00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.319 long and hard consideration for me not to get help 64 00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:30.680 because I've needed help on this radio show. Because this 65 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.639 radio show is growing by leaps and bounds all the time, 66 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:39.480 we just want to give a shout out to WNEW 67 00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:43.800 in New York City, new affiliate, number one radio market 68 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.639 in the United States. I mean, this show is just growing, 69 00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:49.279 in large part, Doctor Brockman, thanks to our audience. The 70 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:55.519 audience of this radio show continues to tell people about 71 00:04:55.519 --> 00:05:00.199 the show. Listeners are telling their family members, their friends, 72 00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.160 or coworkers or neighbors, and as a result of that, 73 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.240 the message is getting out. And in this day and 74 00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:10.439 age when our health in the United States is in 75 00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:16.800 complete turmoil and circling the drain, as we say, the 76 00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:19.879 health of our nation, we need help. We need we 77 00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:23.920 need young people to step up and help educate people 78 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:26.079 as to how to stay healthy in the first place 79 00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:29.079 and not wait to break down, not fix it when 80 00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:31.560 it's broken, sort of an attitude which is what the 81 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:37.040 American sick care system has revolved into. I mean, no 82 00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:39.959 doubt there is emergency medicine nine to one to one 83 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.879 ambulances and all the fine things that dedicated doctors do 84 00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:51.399 to save lives is absolutely amazing. But I think we 85 00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:53.600 need to focus on and I know that you agree 86 00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:56.399 with this, we need to focus on keeping people well 87 00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:59.680 and not getting into the crisis that they get into 88 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:04.360 trying to hail Mary, you know, bring Santa claus On 89 00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:06.920 at the end. If we're bad boys and girls to 90 00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:09.800 our bodies. Would you agree with that, Doctor. 91 00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:14.160 Brockman, Absolutely, we need to focus on natural health, and 92 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:18.160 the term alternative does not fit this. This should be 93 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.680 mainstream and now as good a time as any to 94 00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:22.560 make that happen. 95 00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.759 I look at conventional medicine as the alternative medicine because 96 00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:30.319 it certainly is the youngest of the medicines. I mean, 97 00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:33.399 when you look at traditional Chinese medicine, it's over two 98 00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:38.920 thousand years old. When you look at iravetic medicine thousands 99 00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:43.199 of years old. When you look at remedies, at our 100 00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:50.439 grandmothers and great grandfathers practiced and utilized to improve their 101 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:54.240 quality of life and to help them. I mean, the 102 00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:58.120 way that we roll today with pharmaceutical drugs is certainly 103 00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:02.319 relevant and can be life saving. But it can also 104 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.879 take your life too. It's risky to go into a hospital. 105 00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:08.199 We know that you can get saved, have your life 106 00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:10.560 saved there, but you can also die there of a 107 00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:13.199 condition you didn't have when you went through the door. 108 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:18.399 So I think the more educated people become, the more 109 00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:21.560 self reliant they become. And that's what this show is 110 00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:25.160 dedicated to. As you well know, being your own best 111 00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:27.160 doctor most of the time, and in order to get 112 00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:29.399 to that, you need to educate people. You need to 113 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:33.040 tell them how to get to that space and not 114 00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:35.600 just expect them to do it on their own. And 115 00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.439 that's I hope a part of what we do here 116 00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:40.759 on this show and others like it, so that the 117 00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:44.519 public can benefit their most precious possession, that of course, 118 00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.839 that being their health. All right, enough set about that. 119 00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:54.720 The topic we're going to discuss today and right out 120 00:07:54.759 --> 00:08:01.160 of the gate is the exciting news about the astronauts 121 00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:05.480 that recently were returned to the Earth who had been 122 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:10.279 stranded in outer space. Oh my gosh, I don't know 123 00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:14.639 about you, ladies and gentlemen, but I aspired, like a 124 00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:17.720 lot of others, to be an astronaut when I was 125 00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:22.319 growing up. In fact, the Apollo eleven mission that landed 126 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:25.040 on the Moon in nineteen sixty nine. I think it 127 00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:28.360 was like fourteen or fifteen years of age. That really 128 00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:30.759 caught my attention, and as it did a lot of people, 129 00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:34.639 and I thought, geez, wouldn't it be so cool to 130 00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:37.879 go up in outer space and see those things and 131 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:41.720 experience those things. So of course, I from that point 132 00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.159 fixated on it and had a lot of aspirations in 133 00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:50.159 that regard. It never worked out, but I still think 134 00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:54.759 about it. And yet when you see these pictures that 135 00:08:55.519 --> 00:09:00.759 were recently released, photographs depicting the you know that just 136 00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:05.480 came back from outer space with the physical effects of 137 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:09.879 their bodies. Man, oh man, that got my attention in 138 00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:13.679 a big way. And I'm thinking to myself, WHOA. I 139 00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:18.679 wonder what astronauts are paid. I don't know if anybody 140 00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:21.200 could pay me enough to take that kind of risk today, 141 00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:24.440 knowing what the risks are both to I mean, you 142 00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:28.480 could die easily and your physical health going forward being 143 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:32.559 in outer space. And doctor Brockman, I looked this up here. 144 00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:37.559 It is the average salary for an astronaut, and I'm 145 00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:40.399 talking about seasoned astronaut is between one hundred and four 146 00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:43.960 thousand dollars and one hundred and sixty one thousand dollars 147 00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:49.240 per year to go up in space and take that 148 00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:51.600 kind of risk and do that kind of ravage to 149 00:09:51.639 --> 00:09:53.879 your body, which we're going to be talking about here shortly. 150 00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:57.720 And then I looked up the average salary for a 151 00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:03.799 National Basketball Association a player, an NBA player in the 152 00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:08.559 in the NBA basketball player twelve million dollars per year 153 00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:12.559 average salary. I'm saying myself, what's wrong with this picture? 154 00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:16.480 Oh my gosh. Okay, Well, so we we have a 155 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:18.840 break to take here, Doctor Brockmann. When we come back, 156 00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:23.159 I want to get into this idea of aeronautic medicine 157 00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:28.679 and aeronautic healthcare and what astronauts go through and why 158 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.840 is it that you know they end up with the 159 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:35.879 type of maladies and infirmities, and when you consider that 160 00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:39.600 we're looking at trips to Mars in the not too 161 00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:42.879 distant future. According to Elon Musk and others, it's an 162 00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:45.600 important topic to discuss because I know a lot of 163 00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:48.320 people want to go to outer space. So we'll have 164 00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:50.519 some of that information when we come back. So stick around. 165 00:10:50.600 --> 00:11:00.720 You're tuned into the doctor Bob Martin Show. I must 166 00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.200 stay conscious. 167 00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:07.360 Through the maness and case. 168 00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:16.080 So I call on my angels say, oh. 169 00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:22.039 It's a little doctor, Doctor victory is in your body, 170 00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:27.759 you know, and you. 171 00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:30.720 Will, all right, Doctor Bob Martin, back with you. Also 172 00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:35.600 with our special co host with us as well, Doctor 173 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:38.960 Adam Brockman is joining me today and from this point 174 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:43.279 forward will be assisting me in this radio show. So 175 00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:46.559 glad to have him. I've needed help for years. Finally 176 00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:51.039 found somebody who is qualified and completely equipped to do 177 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:55.679 just that, and I am excited about it. Doctor Brockman, 178 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.399 thank you for being here and welcome back to the show. 179 00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:03.480 I want you. I want to get into some of 180 00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:09.159 the issues and concerns that astronauts face when they go 181 00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:10.480 into out of space, because I know a lot of 182 00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.080 people are thinking, well, gosh, if I save up enough money, 183 00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.000 because I've heard that you can get a ride to 184 00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:19.879 the space station for about a million dollars. I know 185 00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:24.039 that Putin sold one from Russia, and I think in 186 00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:26.120 the future, this is what's going to happen, and some 187 00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:28.919 of the people listening right now, their children or their 188 00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:33.279 grandchildren may actually travel into space on a journey to 189 00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:39.679 distances that we don't know about right now, planets, maybe Mars. 190 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:46.080 So I thought, let's talk about the risks and the 191 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:51.720 effects of outer space on our astronauts. Let's do that, 192 00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:55.879 and I want to zero in on micro gravity. What happens. 193 00:12:55.919 --> 00:13:00.440 You know this Sanita Williams and Butch Wilmore, the ones 194 00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:05.240 who were stranded on the space station for hundreds of 195 00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:09.879 days and finally got back home thanks to Elon Musk 196 00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:14.240 and the Trump administration. We're so glad that they are 197 00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:18.000 safe and back home. But when when I saw a picture, 198 00:13:18.279 --> 00:13:21.799 doctor Brockman, of Cinita Williams side by side when she 199 00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:26.279 began her journey to the space station, and then when 200 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.000 they took the picture of her stepping out of the 201 00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:36.320 space capsule when she returned to Earth. Seriously, it looked 202 00:13:36.360 --> 00:13:39.480 like she had aged about maybe fifty years. I mean, 203 00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:44.679 it was scary to me. Did you get the same impression, Brockman. 204 00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.519 Yeah, yeah, I did. She looked like she was very 205 00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:53.399 ill coming off of the spaceship. And you know, talking 206 00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:57.399 about aeronautical medicine, doctor Bob, I find this topic just 207 00:13:57.440 --> 00:14:00.679 as fascinating as you, and I'm certain that any of 208 00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:04.840 the listeners find it just as interesting. I do want 209 00:14:04.879 --> 00:14:08.159 to make several observations before we dig into this article 210 00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:14.360 about aeronautical medicine. Many of us, like you said yourself myself, 211 00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:18.240 during our childhood, have aspired to venture into space or 212 00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:23.080 pursue a career as astronauts, and we were all well 213 00:14:23.080 --> 00:14:26.639 aware of the inherent risk associated with space travel, such 214 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:30.080 as being propelled through the atmosphere and then dropping back 215 00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:33.639 through the atmosphere, splashing down an Atlantic Ocean, you know, 216 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:38.440 to be rescued by the NASA crew. However, it was 217 00:14:38.519 --> 00:14:41.720 not until these recent release of these photographs of the 218 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:45.480 astronauts that were stranded that we fully grasp the physical 219 00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:51.639 risk that space travel posts our bodies and health. What 220 00:14:51.799 --> 00:14:55.080 you said, with the originally intended as basically about an 221 00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:57.679 eight to ten day mission extended over two hundred and 222 00:14:57.679 --> 00:15:02.679 eighty days, and so one can only imagine the psychological 223 00:15:02.720 --> 00:15:04.480 toll this must have had on these astronauts. 224 00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:10.080 You know, over the years, I've read stories about the 225 00:15:10.120 --> 00:15:16.320 physical challenges that astronauts have going into space and what 226 00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:20.120 happens to their bodies, and I want to discuss that 227 00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:22.559 because there are people who are thinking, hey, you jump 228 00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:24.440 in the capsule, you come out you're good to go. 229 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:27.799 Not so much, Ladies and John when you look in 230 00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:32.559 and you see what's happening. Because, as doctor Rockman just 231 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:36.519 pointed out, when Miss Williams came back, I mean she 232 00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:39.120 would she have an IV. They immediately put an IV 233 00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:43.799 in her arm to get her fluids rehydrate her. Because 234 00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:48.200 that's I think that's an automatic when you're in space, 235 00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:52.039 that that's going to happen. But there are all kinds 236 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:56.039 of other issues, you know, especially related to the muscular 237 00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:02.200 little skeletal system that happen two astronauts, and I want 238 00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:04.879 to discuss that a little bit. The effects of microgravity. 239 00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:07.440 We hear that, you know, when you're in space, you 240 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:11.080 actually get taller. I don't know. I thought it was 241 00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:13.720 like an inch taller, maybe an inch and a half taller. 242 00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:17.519 And then when you yeah and maybe yeah, maybe even greater, 243 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:21.399 and then when you come back, everything compresses back down 244 00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:25.159 and then suddenly you're feeling like not so good. And 245 00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:29.159 it's my understanding, Doctor Brockman, that many of the astronauts, 246 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:31.679 I don't know what percentage it is, maybe you know this, 247 00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:36.559 suffer from spinal paint, like lower back pain and disk 248 00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:42.399 problems and they have pain radiating down, you know, into 249 00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:47.399 their arms and their legs, which is extremely painful due 250 00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:53.120 to the disruption of their spinal biomechanics, you know, compared 251 00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:56.240 to when you have no gravity and you have full 252 00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:01.960 gravity once you re enter the Earth. So I want 253 00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:08.920 people to know my personal opinion of that is that one, 254 00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:13.559 why is it that only a percentage of astronauts developed 255 00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:17.279 these problems? And what can we learn from that to 256 00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:20.599 provide for them going forward so that they don't come 257 00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:24.799 back with those kinds of structural problems which seem to 258 00:17:24.839 --> 00:17:28.759 be probably the easier things to correct. What is your 259 00:17:28.759 --> 00:17:30.279 opinion of that, doctor problem. 260 00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:34.599 Well, if we're just talking about the spinal related pain, 261 00:17:35.079 --> 00:17:39.319 back pain, it's nearly eighty percent of astronauts experience that 262 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:41.880 whether they're on the mission and then when they come 263 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:45.559 back to Earth, it's nearly a third of them thirty 264 00:17:46.039 --> 00:17:49.480 some percent that have chronic back related issues. 265 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:54.599 That eighty percent sounds like the population of the United 266 00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:56.960 States at one time, well, eight out of ten people 267 00:17:57.000 --> 00:18:00.559 will have a lower back problem at one period of time. 268 00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:05.440 So what you're saying then, is that not all astronauts 269 00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:09.200 come back in pain in their spine, in their backs, 270 00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:13.599 in their discs with their nerves only a percentage due. 271 00:18:13.640 --> 00:18:15.519 Is that what I hear you saying? 272 00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:20.119 Yeah? And it does some of the mimics the natural 273 00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:23.880 aging process that we experience with elderly on Earth, which 274 00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:26.920 I'd like to get into it at some point today 275 00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:30.079 if we have time. But I think a lot of 276 00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:34.240 it has to do with the astronaut's core strength before 277 00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:39.000 they go on the mission, which is often ignored by NASA. 278 00:18:39.519 --> 00:18:46.000 They have very health related you know, exams and questions 279 00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:51.119 that lead up to this, dealing with eyesight and mental ability, 280 00:18:51.160 --> 00:18:54.079 but they do not look at the structure. And I 281 00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:57.039 think that's something that maybe need to be researched further 282 00:18:57.160 --> 00:18:57.799 or looked at. 283 00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:02.240 I would agree with you. If you have a certain 284 00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:06.799 percentage of astronauts coming back and they're in a lot 285 00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:10.960 of distress, a lot of pain with their backs, and 286 00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:14.559 there's another percentage that are not, you have to figure 287 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:18.880 and my mind goes to pre existing condition right away. 288 00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:23.400 Why is it that a certain percentage of them are 289 00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:28.279 not impacted with back pain, with nerve pain, with disc 290 00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:32.599 herniations and other problems when a certain percentage are And 291 00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:37.839 my training tells me that those astronauts that are having problems. 292 00:19:39.400 --> 00:19:42.839 We're in a distress before they got into the capsule 293 00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:45.839 to take off, and they weren't afforded or were not 294 00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:52.839 provided spinal care by a competent, qualified, licensed chiropractic physician 295 00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:55.319 before they climbed into the space capsule. So they went 296 00:19:55.359 --> 00:20:02.200 in to the program not being carried for fully and 297 00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.640 came back a lot worse, which means that their condition 298 00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:11.559 was simply exacerbated. It wasn't probably created in space, but 299 00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:15.839 rather brought to a head in space because of the 300 00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:20.839 stretching and the elongation that micro gravity has on a spine. 301 00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:23.759 And of course it's always going to impact the area 302 00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:26.880 that is the weakest. You're only as strong as your 303 00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:31.680 weakest link. And if you've got back problems prior to 304 00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:35.000 doing a space trip, you're going to have back problems 305 00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:36.720 when you come back, and they're going to be escalating. 306 00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:40.720 And that's why I think the NASA program needs to 307 00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:47.039 include a proper evaluation by a chiropractic physician on all astronauts. 308 00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:51.000 They deserve it, they need it, and we should provide it. 309 00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:53.519 All Right, we're gonna come right back. Stay with us, 310 00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:57.200 ladies and gentlemen. You're tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show. 311 00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:00.599 Are you waiting on a night? 312 00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:01.440 Next take? 313 00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:05.759 How you meeting for the perfect night? How are you 314 00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:07.720 waiting to the time is night? 315 00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:15.279 Don't you want to learn to deal it? Don't you 316 00:21:15.359 --> 00:21:18.559 want to take the wheel and stand? Don't you be 317 00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:22.519 another man? 318 00:21:21.240 --> 00:21:26.920 What are you in? All right? 319 00:21:27.079 --> 00:21:29.920 Healthy? Welcome to Welcome back to this hour of the 320 00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:32.799 Doctor Bob Martin Show. We'll get back to the conversation 321 00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:38.079 about aeronautic medicine astronauts in space and how it impacts 322 00:21:38.119 --> 00:21:43.640 their health and wellness both in space and afterwards. My 323 00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:46.960 co host, doctor Adam Brockman will be joining in that 324 00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:49.720 conversation shortly, so stand by. But before we get to that, 325 00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:54.759 I wanted to remind you of a very important nutrient 326 00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:58.720 which I dare say most people haven't learned about, but 327 00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:02.720 they will eventually. I've been talking about it for several 328 00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:09.599 weeks now. The initials of this particular special nutrient is pea. 329 00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:14.759 Pea is short for this nutrient found in very minute 330 00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:19.640 quantities in certain foods. There's some in egg yolks, for example, 331 00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:25.240 and other foods, but you would need to eat lots 332 00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:27.759 and lots of eggs, maybe thirty or more eggs to 333 00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:32.960 get a therapeutic dosage of this ingredient, this special ingredient 334 00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:37.880 called PEA well. Scientific research now shows that PA can 335 00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:42.319 address all kinds of health related problems, muscle pain and recovery, 336 00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:48.400 arthritis symptoms, improve mobility, cognitive health sounds like the astronauts 337 00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:50.839 need to get on this before they get into the 338 00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:55.759 space capsule, and a multitude of other health concerns PEA 339 00:22:55.799 --> 00:22:59.759 can handle as a nutritional supplement, including allergies, respiratory symptoms, 340 00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:05.599 even fibromyalgia, very chronic painful condition that people suffer chronically with. 341 00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:10.960 And because of pea's anti inflammatory action, researchers have investigated 342 00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:13.559 its ability to relieve pain in a variety of conditions 343 00:23:13.640 --> 00:23:20.359 including sciatica, neuropathy, temporal mandibular joint, jaw joint problems. Plus 344 00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:27.160 in scientific research on the most common form of arthritis, osteoarthritis, 345 00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:32.319 PEA the nutritional supplement lowered levels of inflammatory markers slowed 346 00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:36.279 the damage of cartilage, which is just the opposite of 347 00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:42.079 what enceds do. They actually accelerate the damage of cartilage 348 00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:46.599 when you take them as painkillers. PEA also reduced nies swung, 349 00:23:46.759 --> 00:23:49.519 so if you are looking to improve your overall health. 350 00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:54.640 Consider supplementing with PEA, the nutritional supplement from Terry Naturally 351 00:23:54.759 --> 00:23:58.799 Vitamins for both acute and chronic pain, better physical recovery 352 00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:03.559 from injuries, and prove mood and focus, as well as 353 00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:09.599 a more robust immune system. Take Pea by Terry Naturally Vitamins. 354 00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:13.720 You can find Pea at health food stores nationwide, or 355 00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:19.440 you can go to the website Terry Naturally Vitamins dot 356 00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:25.920 com Terry Naturally Vitamins dot com to find PEA. You 357 00:24:26.039 --> 00:24:28.000 tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Joe. I'm here with 358 00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:34.160 my co host, doctor Adam Brockman, and we're talking about 359 00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:40.559 aeronautic medicine, what happens to astronauts their health. And obviously 360 00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:44.359 astronauts have to be in tip top shape based on 361 00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:50.240 a medical evaluation. Their eyesight has to be even better 362 00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:55.599 than twenty twenty. Like all pilots, they have to have 363 00:24:55.680 --> 00:24:58.279 physical strength. They have to be able to You've seen 364 00:24:58.359 --> 00:25:04.759 these demonstrate on television where they where they whirl them 365 00:25:04.799 --> 00:25:07.240 around over and over. They have to be able to 366 00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:09.640 recover from that. They can't get dizzy in their head 367 00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:15.640 and lose their ability to function inside space. So we're 368 00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:19.759 talking about that with doctor Adam Brockman and some of 369 00:25:19.799 --> 00:25:22.039 the challenges that we have because I dare say that 370 00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:24.880 some people aspire to go into space that are listening 371 00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:27.000 to the son of my voice right now, and you 372 00:25:27.079 --> 00:25:30.160 may have children or grandchildren who do just that. Maybe 373 00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:33.960 they are going to embark upon a mission to Mars, 374 00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:37.680 somebody in your family. It may happen. And knowing a 375 00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:40.880 little bit more about outer space and the impact of 376 00:25:40.920 --> 00:25:43.119 microgravity in the human body, I think is good for 377 00:25:43.160 --> 00:25:46.279 everybody to know, to better understand it, to appreciate what 378 00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:50.839 astronauts who get paid a buck and a half a 379 00:25:50.920 --> 00:25:57.279 year compared to eleven million dollars with the average NBA player. 380 00:25:57.720 --> 00:26:00.599 To me, there's something wrong with this picture. Do you 381 00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:02.319 agree with that, Doctor Brockman. 382 00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:06.480 Yeah, absolutely, and I think you hit it. With human 383 00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:11.200 missions to Mars are projected to commit somewhere around twenty thirty, 384 00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:16.160 with a duration of these mission missions being span of 385 00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:17.480 two and a half years or more. 386 00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:18.079 Wow. 387 00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:21.880 Yeah, In the prospect of space travel become accessible to 388 00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:26.160 the general population, it's coming and perhaps sooner than anticipated. 389 00:26:27.279 --> 00:26:31.599 Exactly a lot of these rich moguls are now buying 390 00:26:31.640 --> 00:26:33.960 their way into outer space. That's how it all got 391 00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.119 started with lay people going up that needed to They 392 00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:40.640 had to have just a minimal amount of preparatory activity 393 00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:43.039 before they allowed them to do this. So it's all 394 00:26:43.079 --> 00:26:46.759 about the dollar right now. But obviously we're going to 395 00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:50.759 expand into space. It's what we do as beings. As 396 00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:53.200 humans were interested in it, but we need to know 397 00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:55.119 what we're getting into. I think the average person does 398 00:26:55.160 --> 00:26:58.440 not know. That's why I wanted to discuss this topic. 399 00:26:58.519 --> 00:27:02.319 It's fascinating to you, doctor Brockman, and myself, and I 400 00:27:02.359 --> 00:27:06.400 think a lot of other audience members are also interested 401 00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:10.680
