We began this hour in a discussion of a popular fermented food linked to the decrease incidents of colon cancer. Maybe you've been reading about this, how scientists are seeing the incidents of colarectal cancer skyrocketing. They don't know what's going on.

They're all itching their heads wondering what the heck is going on a recent study by the American Cancer Society. Researchers are talking about this and they're looking at seeing a rise in twenty seven of fifty countries and territories worldwide. What is up? Well, here is the deal. A popular fermented food linked to decreasing the incidents of coalorectal cancer. Can you guess what that food is? If you guessed yogurt, you would be correct. Yogurt linked to decreasing the incidence

of colorectal cancer. Wow, something that simple, A fermented sort of a kind of like a spoiled form of food going into the body, creating good bacteria in your gut and helping you out. Why is that Well, because most of your immune system resides in your gut, in your gastro intestinal area, yogurt contains several live strains of bacteria that are believed to help protect against many types of diseases. Some studies suggest that it could help to reduce the

risk of coalorectal cancer. Taking a deeper dive into these protective effects, a study published in Gut Microbes from mass General Bringham found that long term consumption of yogurt may help protect against colorectal cancer by promoting changes in the gut microbiome. We've been talking about that on this radio show for twenty eight years, encouraging people to protect their gut microbiome because it is the center of your health's universe.

When it goes down, the whole body suffers. Some of you have picked up on that encouragement with doctor Ohiris probiotics. Others just it just falls off their back like water off a duck. But now maybe this will motivate you investigating the potential benefit of yogurt and good bacteria supplanting

that in the gut is important. The lead researcher says, our study provides unique evidence about the potential benefit of yogurt, according to doctor Shunji Ogino, mdphd, the chief of the Program in Molecular Pathology Epidemiology the Department of Pathology at Brigham and Women's Hospital, a founding member of Mass General

Brigham Healthcare System. The study utilized data from the Nurses Health Study and the Health Professional's follow Up Study, which followed over one hundred thousand female registered nurses and more than fifty one thousand male health professionals who had been followed over a period of forty to fifty years. It has long been believed that yogurt and other fermented products

fermented food products are beneficial for gastro intestinal health. In their paper, In their scientific paper, they add to the growing evidence that illustrates the connection between diet, gut microbiome and the risk of cola rectal cancer. Now you might be saying to yourself, well, I don't want to take in yogurt because I don't want to eat dairy products. Well, then if that's the case, stick around for the health alternative of the week, because I have you hooked up

big time. There is a healthier yogurt than using cow yogurt, So stick around for that. We will have it. But first let's get back to work with your telephone calls and your health questions on the Doctor Bob Martin Show caller hotline phone number of eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Next up on that line is And from Mount Vernon, Iowa.

Speaker 4

Hi, Bob, this is And from Mount Vernon, Mount Vernon, Iowa. I would like to know if you have any pits on satty liver disease. Apparently I was just recently diagnosed to us that I haven't seen my healthcare provider yet, and I just was wondering what non prescription things nobody can do for that.

Speaker 5

Thank you.

Speaker 3

Oh, and there's absolutely no game in town medically that can help this condition. This is a lifestyle situation.

Speaker 6

It is.

Speaker 3

It's the cause of its excess accumulation of fat that leads to a fatty liver in the diagnosis of non alcoholic associated fatty liver disease. It's really that simple. And what you have to do and is get away from sugar and alcohol. That's key. And the standard American diet, the SAD diet, which is all about greasy fried foods. If you're overweight, you must you must lower your weight

because that's a big part of it. Another part of it is insulin resistance, which is caused by not exercising and eating too many fast acting, processed, highly processed, fast acting carbohydrates. That's what you have to get away from. So we've got to get your blood sugar under control. Roll it's your A one C where it needs to be, and make sure you're eating the right types of fat, staying away from the excessive amount of saturated fats and

you'll do well. Now, there are supplements that you can take for faty liver, no question about it. One is called salimarin or thisilin works very well at helping this. Another one is alphai polic acid. But I'm telling you here, if you're not exercising, if you're not losing your weight, if you're not making those adjustments in your diet, stay away from refined carbohydrates. If you're drinking a lot of alcohol, well,

you need to live. And I'm gonna say this, not meaning to scare you, not meaning to be mean, but you need to be living real close to a real hospital that does liver transplants, because this disease can get so out of control and so bad and can cause scarring into your liver and affect your quality of life that someday a doctor may say, well, and it's time for a liver t We've just tried everything. There's nothing

you can do about it. And geez, a huge amount of population of the United States, I think last time I looked at like twenty to thirty percent of people either have it or going to have it. So the key is exercise, staying away from the sugar and the fast acting carbohydrates. That includes not drinking fruit juice. Do not drink fruit juice unless you dilute it like maybe ninety percent pure water to just a little bit of fruit.

Why not just go with the herbal teas and find a functional medicine trained healthcare provider, a chiropractor, a nature path a homeopath, somebody who can actually counsel you as to how to get better with this. Conventional medical care is not going to cut the mustard in this condition. They're just not. I mean, how can they give you a drug to poison an organ that's already poisoned your liver? Because everything rolls through there. I wish you well though,

stay tuned. We're coming right back. It's the Doctor Bob Martin Show.

Speaker 6

This is my Sunday side, not that lisson.

Speaker 3

I welcome you back to the Doctor Bob Martin showed. If you like what you hear and you think other people could benefit by listening into this show, by all means,

refer them to the program. The way to do that successfully is to jot down the call letters of the radio station you're listening to right now, and whether it is an AM or FM station, look at the frequency or listen to or listen for the frequency on the dial, and of course note the time of the day, and just tell as many people as you can about it so they too have the opportunity to tune in to hear about all this good stuff that we bring to

the table, about our most precious possession, that's health. Without it, you have nothing. With it, you have everything. And that's what we are dedicated to and all about helping you with your health. You become your own best doctor most of the time. All right, on the theme of what we talked about, and we began this hour, the fact that yogurt now linked. Consuming yogurt linked to decreasing the

incidence of colorectal cancer. And as I said, there are other forms of yogurt beyond cow milk yogurt, And of course you can always take doctor Ohiris probiotics to accomplish the same thing by replanting the good bacteria in the coalon to reduce your risk of all kinds of health related problems. So we decided that you need an healthier alternative to cow yogurt. They do exist, and here we go the health alternative of the week. That's right. We talk about not only the problems, but also how to

solve those problems, plugging you in, hooking you up. As I mentioned, yogurt is amazing. Fermented foods are all amazing, and how they benefit the human body. Some people choose not to consume cow yogurt because they have read that cow yogurt may have in it, not just the friendly bacteria, the probiotics in it if it makes it to the site. So much of the gastro intestinal region is hostile in terms of its pH and acidity, so a lot of that good bacteria may not even make it to the site.

But you also need to know that there are non cow probiotics in the form of yogurt available to you at health food stores. It's true, and that is where we're going to focus our attention right now in the health alternative of the week, and that is for non dairy, non dairy yogurt, because some of you are afraid of getting that recombinant bovine growth hormone in cow milk yogurt. Some of you are concerned of not getting traces of antibiotics in your cow milk yogurt because cowls often get

excessively shot up with antibiotics. They get hormone shots to increase their milk production. There's all kinds of allergies associated with cow milk, and so here's the healthier alternative. Doctor Bob Hooking you up. It's called non dairy yogurt, found

at finer health food or health grocery stores nationwide. You can certainly find it at natural grocer stores because when you're eating or consuming non dairy yogurt, did you know that the yogurt contains calcium, phosphorus, zinc, selenium, idine, riboflaviing vitamins V five and B twelve.

Speaker 6

Yes.

Speaker 3

A twenty twenty study found that regular yogurt consumers had a higher quality diet, a lower risk of obesity, and higher intakes of fiber, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin D. One of the drawbacks with traditional cow based yogurts is the high amounts of sugar content, and a lot of

people like yogurt because it's like eating ice cream. To them, it's like a sugar orgy because at the bottom of that cup of yogurt it's jam full of sugar, which pretty much defeats all the good bacteria in that yogurt cup. It's easier to find candy flavored yogurt at the store, which is really what I'm talking about if it's the prototypical yogurt. But the health alternative of the week is gonna address that standby then it is to find no sugar yogurt. And if you're gonna eat cow yogurt, at

least get the plain stuff. Don't get any flavors in there, because that yogurt is jam full of sugar that increases your calorie content, that suppresses your white blood cells. Oh, it's just not good for you. And there are other drawbacks besides that, as I mentioned antibiotics and bovine growth hormone and cow yogurt. You would be better off buying a plane yogurt and adding your own flavors of fruits.

You put the blueberries, you put the raspberries in there, or whatever fruit you like, without any sugar in it. And if you're thinking, well, I'll get one that doesn't have sugar, it's got the nutritive sweeteners in it. The non no, don't get those. Those are even worse.

Speaker 5

Well.

Speaker 3

The health alternative of the week is dairy free yogurt made with plant based milks, which are lower in fat than traditional cow yogurt, do not contain lactose, which is milk sugar which a lot of people are sensitive and allergic to and are lower or they have no sugar added whatsoever. Here are the options that you have in the health alternative of the week. Non dairy yogurt brands include So Delicious yogurt made with coconut milk. There are other milks, by the way, besides cow milk, so expand

your vision So Delicious yogurt made with cow milk. You've got kite Hill yogurt made with almond milk. You've got painter Land Sisters yogurt made with cashhee milk, and you have oat Lee oat l y Oatly yogurt made with obviously oat milk. These healthier alternative yogurts can be used just like people using cowmilk yogurt, but without all the other cow junk that's in there that you don't need

or want. That way, it becomes very easy to eat a more plant based food diet and keeps you another step closer to being healthier and changing up into healthier habits. Non dairy yogurt exists, and it exists in the health grocery stores maybe near you. You can find out more about if there's a natural grocery store to you by logging onto the website naturalgrocers dot com. Natural Grocers dot com.

And if you don't have a natural grocery store near you, maybe the store you go to can order it for you. There's all kinds of plant based yogurts out there to find. I just listed them. If you missed him, you'll be able to hear it in the podcast library either over at Radioamerica dot com or on my website at doctor Bob dot com in about two days. All right, let's get right back to work through telephone calls and questions. Remember, as you hear people calling into the program, you can

too with your health related question or health comment. That number eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Next up, we say hello to Dell in Jonesboro, Tennessee.

Speaker 7

Hi. My name is Dell. Love your show. I'm from Jonesboro, Tennessee. And with all the talk about floride at the water, I just want to mention that when I was a kid, my parents also were healthshed nuts, which I am, and they said that floride was used as rap poison. I didn't hear that on your show today, so I thought i'd mentioned it, and they didn't like when they put the floor in the water and sixties or whatever.

Speaker 3

Thank you, all right, thank you for your comment. Don't know, floride is not really rat poison, but it is toxic. It's a neurotoxin. I used to interview a guy by the name of doctor Johnny Emianness, PhD, back in the eighties, and he was already hollering very loudly about how bad fluoride is and you shouldn't be habit in the water. It's cancerous, it damages the human body. And all of his colleagues and of course the big pharma and big

Agra and conventional medicine attacked him. Now we're finding out that fluoride is bad news. It's terrible to put it in your body, whether it's in a dental florid treatment, in the mouth, or in your water. It's just not good. It's a neurotoxin. It causes cancer over time. I agree with you. All right. We're gonna come back soon with the health outrage of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martin.

Speaker 8

Anybody's got fame, mistakes, but everybody's.

Speaker 3

Got a choice to make. Everybody needs to.

Speaker 6

Leave the faith. When are you taking your.

Speaker 5

Money?

Speaker 3

You infote? All right, doctor Bob Martin back with you. Coming up very shortly. Here will be the health outrage of the week, and then we're gonna get right back to work with your health related questions and or comments on the Doctor Bob Martin Show Caller hotline, which is eight hundred six zero six eighty eight to two to two. This opens up an opportunity for me to help you with your health or to field your health related comment your choice. Simply dial into this number. It is told

free nationwide any time of the night or day. You can call now if you want, you'll hear me answer the phone. I'll ask you to state your first name, city and state you're living, and that's it. Make sure your radio is not blaring in the background. Make it short and sweet. That number is eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two one eight hundred six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Before we get to the health outrage of the week, let me remind you how

important your oral cavity is. I mean, I see a lot of people that are out exercising excellent, they're eating well, perfect, they're trying to think positive, positive mental attitude, they're lowering their stress really good. But they're not taking good care of their oral health. They're not. And I know this because when you take case histories from patients and you ask them about these things that go well. Do you brush your teeth every day? Oh well, maybe every other day.

Do you floss No? Do you use a swisher through your teeth?

Speaker 9

No?

Speaker 3

How often do you see your dental hygienis for deep cleaning maybe one every two years. Really, and I'm starting to think, Wow, you're missing a huge opportunity to keep the inflammatory process down in the entire body, because sometimes it begins in the oral cavity and it spreads into your body in the form of well peridonal disease, gingivitis, of course, tooth decave. You don't take good care of your health, and then you have bad breath. What I do, and what I suggest people do, is ay focus more

on their oral cavity to begin with. You have control that you can be your own best dentist most of the time. Do what I do. Use the Spry Spry toothpaste and Spry mouth rints. You can also use their gum and mints to impart the secret sauce which stops these things. These dental problems from happening, so that when you go to your dentist or hygenis, they're gonna say, wow, what are you doing because you're looking good in your

oral cavity. And then you can keep the inflammatory process down starting in your mouth that convey deeper into your body, into your heart, into your joints, fatigue you all of it. You can put the fire out right where a lot of people's fire begins in the mouth that they're not paying attention to. It's the spry dental defense system. Now, the secret sauce is a plant based substance in these tooth bases and mouth rents and gum and mints called xylotol.

It's a science based substance and the studies have shown it's used by millions of people and it works by competing with these germs, the Streptococcus mutants. There's a byproduct of their metabolism that's like pure acid in the mouth. And when you don't stop those germs from overpopulating in your microbiome in your mouth, they get out of control and they increase your risk of tooth to gauge, gingivitis,

peridontal disease, and tooth loss. This xylotol tricks them into believing there's food there, they chow down on it, they die, they leave. It's that simple. That's the secret sauce in the Spry Dental Defense System. It is an easy, inexpensive way to have this happen in your life like we do in the Doctor Bob Martin household and all of my colleagues who understand this, and if you want squeaky clean teeth, gums and breath that is fantastic, then use

the Spray Dental Defense System. Spray Dental Defense is available at CVS and Rite Aid Pharmacies, Target, Vitamin Chop Sprouts, and all natural grocery stores, or you can go directly to the company and their website for more information at Clear dot com. That's spelled X as in xylotol x L ear clear dot com. Or you can find the Spray Dental Defense System in finer stores everywhere. They're the same makers of the Clear nasal sprays that I talk

about here on the show all the time. All right, let's now transition over to the health outrage of the wheat She's I don't believe it. Come on each to for the health outradge because it's nothing.

Speaker 2

But.

Speaker 3

It is outrageous and I will never drink another bottle of this bottle Top brand water ever again. I thought it was the purest water that you could find, but there's been a lot of problem associated with it. Just this last week you probably heard about it. Fuji Water not good. Top bottle water brand sued over claims it contains toxic chemicals linked to cancer. Premium water brand Fiji

is being sued. Would I say Fuji Fiji being sued overclaims it misled customers about toxic chemicals in its bottled water. The environmental advocacy group the Plastic Pollution Coalition has filed a complaint against the La based water brand, stating that lab tests revealed both microplastics and biz phenola or BPA

in its water, bottles water products. These undisclosed substances, the nonprofit organizations say, have been linked to a range of health problems, including cancer, fertility issues, autism, cardiovascular complications, and even death. There is no publicity available research showing that Fiji water contains microplastics or BPA. That's, of course what

the spokesman says. But this other group says otherwise. Researchers at Columbia University, of course, previously found that the average leader bottle of stored bottle water contains two hundred and forty thousand nanoplastics in it. So if this is true, and they are found to have this biz phenol a BPA and microplastics in Fiji water, I will never ever drink another bottle that because we think, oh, Fiji, way out in the middle of the South Pacific, that water's

got to be really pure over there without pollution. I think I'll get it, and I'm willing to pay a premium for it because my body deserves clean as possible water. Never again with Fiji water. If this holds true, and that is the health outrage of the week. All right, let's get right back to work with your telephone calls and questions. Next up is Nancy calling in from Johnson City, Tennessee.

Speaker 10

Van C.

Speaker 11

From Johnson City, Tennessee. My question is, Okay, I have supposedly plethoratis in my eyes. The jail that I have been that I am given every time is not working. I have swollen olids, very dry pilley stand around. So my question is could it be something else, or could it be a symptom of another eye illness that I have not been told about.

Speaker 3

Oh, yes, it can be blepheritis. It can be anything. You could be a staff infection. It could be something that you're coming in contact with, environmentally and skin care products, medical drugs you're taking, could be eyelid mites, could be an autoimmune flare up of some sort. If it's blepheritis, you know, I would suggest you try using warm, moist camomile tea bags over your eyes. You close your eye lid and you put warm, not hot camomile tea bags over the eye lid three times a day to reduce

the swelling. Then you apply a small amount be very careful not to get this into your eye, A small amount of Ta tree oil. That be really careful. If it doesn't clear up in a couple of weeks, you need to go back and see if a doctor, a function medicine doctor to check internal issues. Thank you for your phone call.

Speaker 6

So you sor.

Speaker 2

A Bossom number signonmencible Bee never single.

Speaker 3

Sore tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin show and for that I appreciate you doing so and telling others to do the same thing. Stay in touch with us. Always stay apprized of all the latest news over on my personal website at doctor Bob dot com spelling out the word doctor D O C T O R Bob dot com.

We're in the middle of an open line conversation related to the topic of health, inviting you with your health related question or comment to TiAl into our Doctor Bob Martin Show caller hotline phone number, which is eight hundred and six zero eight eight two to eight hundred six zero six eight eight two two. Next up is Radu from New York.

Speaker 12

Thank you, Doctor Bob for the opportunity, and I make a point of catching your radio show every week. I do wish it was on more often because I think that you provide a tremendous, tremendous service not only to us, but to the world. My name is Rando and I'm calling from New York. It's concerning something that's not talked about, but things that I need to know about. It's concerning

the past pandemic with the Kobe virus. And I don't know how much you know about this that I wouldn't be surprised if you don't know a lot, But it's concerning the whole thing around the shedding of the virus, and the shedding part means that the people that have had the virus or have come in contact with it can then pass certain elements of it onto another person

by the exchange of bodily fluids. What I want to know is, is the shedding of this COBY virus the same as when people got AIDS and they could spread it that way and it didn't seem like it mattered how long after they had come in contact with it, which the other way that happened, but they carried on this ability to pass.

Speaker 3

Okay, the answer is yes. COVID virus shedding to other people typically happens through air or close contact and is estimated to about third days from the acute onset, but some experts believe RADU that COVID shot recipients can shed through close contact or through sexual contact indefinitely, since the mRNA is designed to take over certain genes and continue

replicating the virus. So exchange of bodily fluids or IV needle sharing is of course how HIV is typically spread, and a person with HIV is of course more susceptible to contracting COVID nineteen because of a week in immune system.

So the answer is yes. I think if somebody gets COVID nineteen naturally and they haven't been vaccinated, they haven't got given the clot shot, their body builds up immunity and therefore after thirty days they may not be able to spread or do shed germs, shed vibeviral germs to those people who they come in contact with sexually. However, the people who have had the COVID shots, and because they shed forever, according to the experts, the's MRA because

you take over and just keep replicating. They are passing that through sexually, through sexual contact and through close contact kissing and vapors through the air. So yes, I hopefully that answers your question. Appreciate your kind comments to rad do. I sure do? All right? Next up is Jim in Franklin, North Carolina.

Speaker 8

Hey, doctor Bob, this is Jim in Franklin, North Carolina, and my question is one on parasites and then another one who's on tonight. Thank you.

Speaker 3

Okay, Jim, First of all, parasites, you can get tested for parasites instead of just believing you have. Most people do to some degree. You can get a test called the CDT test Comprehensive digestive extended panel that's through saliva and stool testing and that'll detect parasites and nail down what type of parasite it is, and then you can

find out what that parasite is sensitive to. But generally speaking, taking black walnut tincture or wormwood oil is a good way to get rid of parasites if you want to just you know, shoot from the hip approach. With respect to ringing in the ears, there's a formula out there called Ringstop for tonitis, but also acupunctures help people with tenitis.

Chiropractic care has helped people with tenitis. There are two hundred and fifty medical drugs that cause or exacerbate tenitis or ringing in the ears, including caffeine, aspirin, ibuprofen, in about two hundred and forty seven other drugs that can cause ringing in the ears. So you also need to avoid loud noise, loud music that is a major contributor to ringing in the years. All right, Jim, thank you for your phone call. Next is Bernice in Arizona.

Speaker 5

Hello, My name is Bernice in Arizona. I have a question. I want to know what test can we do to detect arterial plaque? The best test to do for arterial plaque that's not invasive. They could definitely tell us that headed for a heart attack.

Speaker 3

Thank you, all right, Bernice. Well, to detect arterial plaque, it's called a coronary calcium scan, also known as a calcium score or c AC test. It's a CAT scan, which is a really sophisticated X ray that measures the amount of calcium deposits in the arteries. You know you're going to get the hard plaque measured, not the soft however, and that's why you need blood tests to consider the rest of it, like homocysteine and a sea reactive protein and all of that. We talk about it many times

on the show. Thank you for your phone call.

Speaker 6

We'll be right back.

Speaker 3

All right. We are in our final segment here on the Doctor Bob Martin Show, and my co pilot of the program, Phil has made an executive decision on my behalf. He says, Doctor Bob, you're running a little late and you're not answering enough phone calls. You're getting behind on your calls, so let's forego the health Mystery of the week. So if you're missing that, blame Phil folks. But here we go. We've gotten the next caller and that'll be Rick in Saint George, Utah.

Speaker 10

Mine, doctor Bob. This is Rick from Saint George, Utah. I have a question. A couple of my grandkids have excellent What would be the best way to help them deal with that? Thank you very much to no listen on the show.

Speaker 3

All right, thanks for the call. Ric Ezema is a food allergy disease. They can when they're old enough to get a blood test Elisa act Elisa slash ACT could help to determine which food intolerances or food allergies they have. But anything can cause ezema in childhood. Vaccines that they've had. Nutrient deficiencies you must avoid in children or anybody who has eggzem. You've got to avoid dairy foods, sugar, peanuts, corn, soy,

and wheat. Those are the most common allergies until that we can get blood tested to confirm what's going on. Keep them away from French fries, chips, shellfish. Eliminate all gluten, which is all grains. There are certain grains in a non gluten look of that make sure you're not using soaps that are harmful. Children or anybody who has egzemba should be taking Omega three oils like salmon oil, little extra Vitamin D, little extra vitamin E, and doctor ohiraes probiotics.

Beyond those that supplement Doctor oher Is probiotics, there's also a spray you can put on them called zinc pirthig on topically. It's the best thing you can do. And they can take hot baths using dead sea minerals in the hot bass that'll help soothe it. Appreciate your phone call. Next up is Robert from Beaumont, Texas.

Speaker 9

Good morning, Doctor Bob. This is Roberts. I am calling from Beaumont, Texas, and I'm listening to you on Cage tw thirteen hundred Am. I just wanted to make a comment. I appreciated a couple of weeks ago your assessment of the flu vaccine. That was very telling and I did some additional research and found out you were right on target. So keep up the good work. I will be listening to the Doctor Bob Show. Have a great day.

Speaker 8

Bye bye.

Speaker 3

All right, right, well, that sounds to me like a stroker Phil. What do you say, we go out of here, out of the show. On the on the Stroker theme music, here we go. This is a caller calling in to tell the host thank you and compliment the host.
