There you also find access to Instagram, x, LinkedIn news from around the globe. All of that is there for your consumption. We're going to begin with a somewhat controversial topic here, especially if you were inked, especially if you had tats or a tat. It doesn't matter.
Size doesn't matter here. If you've got one tat or a lot of tats, researchers are saying you are at greater risk of lymphoma, which is a form of cancer. Now I'm going to disclose to you from the outset about my status or the lack thereof, related to tattoos. I don't have a singular tattoo on my body. I'm not bragging or complaining, and I think people should have the ability to choose whether they're going to make their canvas inked
or tatted or not. It's fine. I'm fine with tattoos on someone else, just not me, So just understand that. But I'm here to report the news. The news is not good for people who have tattoos, and size doesn't matter. New research raises concerns about possible toxic ink ingredients that tattoos you've been dreaming of to express your individuality. They could become at a great
price to your precious health, and I hope not. A new study finds that the ink used in creating popular body art contains toxic ingredients linked to a higher risk of lymphoma cancer that begins in germ fighting lymphatic system. We have more lymphatic fluid in our body, folks that we do blood, and you don't want lymphoma cancer, And having just a single tattoo seems to raise the risk of odds. You know, obviously, the more toxicity you get,
the worse off you are. But one a single dose of a toxic inked tat could set things in motion. It's not me saying this now. Tattoos, of course, have grown increasingly popular as a means of self expression. Around thirty two percent of Americans have at least one tattoo, and an estimated twenty two percent have multiple tattoos. However, as tattoos become more widespread, so too has the incidence of malignant lymphoma. According to the researchers, cancer
increasing three percent to four percent over the past forty years. Recent research from Lundon University in Sweden, published in the Lancet's E Clinical Medicine suggests a potential connection between the toxic inks on these tattoos and the rise in lymphoma. The study analyzed data from nearly twelve thousand people between the ages of twelve, twenty and sixty years of age, matched with control group of the same age and
sex without lymphoma. Participants completed questionnaires about lifestyle factors, including tattoos. Researchers found that those with tattoos were more likely to develop malignant lymphoma cancer compared to those without tattoos. People with tattoos had a twenty one percent higher risk of developing any type of lymphoma after adjusting for other factors. The lymphoma risk was highest eighty one percent higher for those who got their first tattoo less than two
years before being diagnosed. The risk decreased for those who had gotten their tattoos between three to ten years ago, but increased again nineteen percent higher for those who had gotten their first tattoo eleven or more years ago. Are you keeping this straight? If you're tatted or you're inked, and size doesn't matter. Apparently, a larger tattoo size did not seem to increase the risk. Further over, eighty percent of tattoo ink contains unlisted unlisted substances that can cause organ
damage, allergies, and the list goes on. According to the study, one of the lead researchers said to I quote, we did not know yet why this was the case, said Crystal Nielsen, who led the study. Take it a press release. One can onways speculate that a tattoo, regardless of side size, triggers a low grade inflammation in the body, which can
true which can in turn trigger cancer. There's the smoking gun. You put another toxin on an already burdened system, perhaps an ink tox and that we know little or nothing about these ingredients because they don't list them, and it could create inflammation which can generate or cause the genesis of that cancer to take off. Now, the research is the first to investigate tattoos as a risk
factor for cancer in the lymphatic system. Further studies investigating potential risk between tattoos and other types of cancer is underway right now, but growing evidence for tattoo related cancer risks. That's what's going on. The researchers. This doctor Nielsen went on to say, and I quote, we know that tattoo ink often
contains hazardous chemicals and that it is deposited in lymph nodes. And she was in an interview not long ago with Epoch Times in discussing this, in talking about the toxicity in many of these tattoo inks that are being used, because a lot of them, over eighty percent of them, according to the researchers, eighty percent of these tattoo inks contain unlisted substances that can cause damage allergic reactions. And I know a lot of people saying, well, I've had
a lot of tats. I've never had any allergic reaction. I'm just fine. Well, look it's the delayed reaction. It may take a while based on what I'm reading here, the toxicity of that substance which is not of man, which is not of nature, which is some type of chemical that
your body is going to recognize as foreign. It's like having a splinter rolling through your body in a chemical form, in a liquid form, and your body's seeing this chemical, this foreign object, this foreign substance which ought not be in your body as something that it doesn't like because it's irritating, it's
grinding away, and it's that very grind biochemically on your system. That may be the match that lights the fire of inflammation that sets into motion the increase of this form of lymphatic cancer, lymphoma that the researchers are talking about here. So this is a call. If you have the inclination of getting a
tattoo in the future, this is something to consider. I don't. And if you have tattoos already, you may want to start doing some detox programs, some fasting, some clean slate, eating, a better diet, all of that, sweating, all of that to get it out of your system. We'll be right back. I'm doctor Bob Martin. Well hopefully natural medicine when applicable. Welcome back to this hour of the Doctor Bob Martin Show,
Ladies and gentlemen, and again thank you for tuning into the program. And I want to let you know that we have a toll free number that you can utilize to access this program in terms of laying down a health related question or health related comment, maybe about something you heard on the show or you've just got something going on with you or somebody you care about that you'd like to call on in behalf of that's fine. Our toll free number nationwide is
eight hundred and six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Eight hundred and six zero six eighty eight twenty two. And remember, the only bad health question is the one you're not asking, So call that number and tell doctor Bob where it hurts already eight hundred and six zero six eighty eight twenty two. Of course, the website doctor Bob dot com. Now, this week's health alternative of the week is going to be interesting, and we're going to get
to it momentarily here. But it really ties into something that I dealt with in our number. Let's see, it would be our number one of the show, or it could be our number two. It's a blur to me already, No, it's our number one. It had to do with cholesterol and how the American Heart Association is now suggesting a lot fewer Americans need to take these cholesterol lowering statin drugs, almost half, almost half. Can you
imagine that? Just literally overnight boom, just like that, magically they do some recalculation at the American Heart Association saying, uh, for thirty seven years, we've had these drugs on the market, and almost half of the people taking them shouldn't have been taking them according to our new calculations. Let's get this reinstituted. Well, folks, I get it. Medicine is far from perfect. It is an inexact art and philosophy based on scientific principles, but
very limited in its ability to really figure things out. And this is proving it once again. So we're tying the first hour of the show, and if you missed that segment about statin drugs, you'll want to get into my podcast library over at doctor Bob dot com. That would be our number one or no, no, I'm sorry, our number two, hour number two where I talked about statin drugs. Get into that and listen to it, and it ties right into this week's Health Alternative of the Week. Here we
go. Now, the reason it ties into the Health Alternative of the week is because this sort of helps people to understand that there are options for people who have cholesterol issues, who want to manage your cholesterol within normal limits, or have problems with taking these statin drugs. The statin drugs have so many adverse side effects unbelievable. You read them from liver damage to muscle damage, to nerve damage to bringing damage to diabetes risk. It increases that increases the
risk of cancertaining these statin drugs. And yet from here we go American Art Association where recalculating about half of the people taking them I ought not be taking them well. The Health Alternative of the Week kind of addresses this topic, and it's a Quinella this time. Yes, you need to eat rite and stay away from the standard American diet that's high inflammatory which causes your body to
make too much cholesterol. And get that exercise program going, lower your stress, don't smoke cigarettes, chill more often, etc. And know that there are a couple of supplements that can help you to better manage excessive lipids. If that's what's going on with you. The best diet to support your cholesterol is one that is in low processed foods and refined foods like sugar, refined carbohydrates, not the complex ones, and rich. Your diet should be rich
in colorful vegetables and healthy fats as opposed to unhealthy fats. We're talking about healthy fats like cold pressed extra virgin olive oil and avocado oil and coconut oil. And if you want to use yes, you can use organic butter or ghee. Those are all good and using in your diet. Making sure you're getting plenty of quality lean protein, nut seeds, all of that. Stay away from sugar. That will help you reduce your heart disease risk. Staying
away from sugar. That's a huge risk factor for people with heart disease and high cholesterol. And in addition to adopting a healthy lifestyle including diet the health alternatives of the week, it's a quinella. Have you heard of? Modu cholest mogicoal moduic call from Wakhanaga supplies one point three grams of plant sterols and sterile esters that compete with dietary cholesterol. Modu call, that's the supplement from
Wakunaga is consumed with your food. Us cholesterol is absorbed by the small intestine, thus lowering harmful LDL cholesterol. And that is the one, of course, the smoking gun that everybody worries about. Modu calldu cho L Modu called the first half of this week's health Alternative of the Week quinella. Here for people who are concerned about lipids, they're lipid panels their cholesterol. That's Leg number one. Also Leg number two because it's a quinella. You want to
look at Formula one oh nine. It's called Formula one oh nine blood pressure from Kyola garlic containing four hundred milligrams of H garlic extract, best selling odorless H garlic extract. Along with and here are some of the magic things that help with the lipids in the body when they're in excess. And that is nato kinase, an enzyme extracted from nato a fermented soil. And in this Formula one oh nine blood pressure from kyolic they've got L three andine, which
is really a nutrient found of green tea. And clinical studies for each of these ingredients have shown to support healthy blood pressure levels, and so many people who have blood pressure issues also have lipid issues as well. Both Formula one oh nine blood pressure and Module call call short for cholesterol have a proven track record in supporting overall cardiovascular health. They're free of dairy, free of gluten,
free of animal derivatives, artificial colors, preservatives, and sugar. Of course, none of that exists in these two formulas which are phenomenal to address people's concerns over lipids. Formula one oh nine from Chiolic and Modu you call. This is a dietary lifestyle that will reduce cholesterol, inflammation and oxidation, helping to you to support healthy blood pressure and reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease. Both of these formulas in this week's Health Alternative of the Week, which
turns into a quinela. You get two formulas that ought to be looked at, or at least considered with people who have these kinds of challenges with cholesterol and or blood pressure. Both of these formulas are found in finer health food stores nationwide. You can also find them at natural grocers stores nationwide, natural grocery stores, and if you don't have a natural grocery store in your neighborhood, you can hit their website at Naturalgrosers dot com, Naturalgrosers dot com.
The Health Alternative of the Week is Modu Call and Formula one oh nine blood pressure from Kyola Garlic.

All Right, Shortly, we're going to get to this week's health alternative up the week, but first I want to remind you that your oral cavity is important to you on so many levels, and we kind of covered that in our number one with our special guest, Doctor Ross Pelton, pharmacist, nutritionist and author of thirteen books. He described as a practicing and learned individual in the area of pharmacy and nutrition. He talked about the oral cavity.
How important the oral cavity is to your oral health and to your overall health. He knows this as an expert, and so do I. So it's important to consider the key to oral health, and to me, the key to oral health, good excellent ooral health is knowing about the Spry dental defense system, something that I've been using personally in my family and my colleagues
for over twenty years. Look, it's a bummer when you have tooth decay, ginge of witish you're dealing with, or periodontal disease, or bad breath. It all means something. It means something's out of balance. And yet people are out there using all these commercial toxic toothpaste and mouthwash with all these chemicals that they cannot pronounce or understand. They're three four, five, six syllables long. I don't care if it's Colgate, Crest, Theobrand, Sensindine,
rem Brand, it doesn't matter. They're all full of junk. The one I use is Spry Spry toothpaste and Spry mouth rents, and they also have gum and mints, and Spry is spelled Spry. I don't know about you, but I get uptight just thinking about visiting my dental provider. I like my dental hygienist and my dentist. They do great work, but I don't want to go there on a crisis basis. I want them to peer into my mouth on a maintenance level and say, Wow, things are going
really good for you, doctor Bob. What are you doing? And I always remind them I'm using the Spry dental defense system. The tooth based the mouthwash comes in various flavors, peppermint, cinnamon, spearman, You're gonna love it, used by millions of people. The plant based ingredient in Spry is the secret sauce that makes the germs, the Streptococcus mutans not stick and if they go to digest it, they die the germs and they leave the oral
cavity. You win. It's anti cavity, anti plaque, anti bad news. The next time you're sitting in that dental chair and the dental hygienis goes in there and looks a your mouth, your oral cavity, or your dentist looks in there, you don't want them whispering anything along the lines of time for a filling. You've got a tooth a k there or time for a root canal, time for a crown, time for an extraction? Out No, get the Spry Dental Defense System. Easy to use, inexpensive and it
will help you clean your teeth. You will love it and you will buy hygienically ahead of the game, just like old doctor Bob and his family are my colleagues. Spry Dental Defense is available at CBS and Rite Aid Pharmacies, Target, Vitamin Chops, Sprouts, all natural grocery stores. You can also look up more information on their website at Clear dot com, x L e a r dot com, Clear dot com for Spry tooth based mouth rents, mints and goms, the Spry Dental Defense System. All right, it is
time now, ladies and gentlemen for the health outrage of the week. Don't come on each time for the health outbridge because it's nothing, but it is outrageous and I'm here to tell you all about it. The Department of Justice telehealth fraud related to the drug Adderall That's what I'm talking about here. The CEO and clinical president of telehealth startup Done that's what its name is, Done
have been arrested and charged with fraud. Accused by federal authorities of participating in a scheme to distribute Adderall online through this telemap telehealth marketing fraud scheme out there. These are doctors who are pushing out the door for profitability and greed Adderall, which is used too much anyway. Doctor Ruthea He, the founder and CEO of Don Global, was arrested Thursday in Los Angeles and doctor David Brody, the clinical president of dun Health do any Health, was arrested in San
Rafael, California. The Department of Justice reported both of them are medical doctors. The two executives were charged with conspiring to commit health care fraud in connection with the submission of false and fraudulent claims for reimbursement of the drug Adderall and other stimulants. If convicted, doctor He and Brody, both medical doctors mds, will face each a maximum penalty of twenty years in prison on the conspiracy
to distribute controlled substances and distribute distribution of controlled substances counts. According to the Department of Justice. The company Done Marketing Itself has a membership based platform that connects patients seeking treatment for attention deficit hyperactive disorder ADHD with qualified clinicians. In other words, you know, peddling drugs in a tele health manner. In other words, you don't have to have that doctor touch you. You just
talked to him on the phone. They ask you some symptoms. Oh yeah, you got HD, you got add you got ADHD, you got this, you got that. Okay, I'm ready to prescribe. How much do you want? How often do you want it? According to the Department of Justice, doctor he MD and doctor Brody MD arranged the prescription of forty million pills of the drug adderall, used to treat attention that was a hyperactive disorder, as well as other stimulus, generating more than ready for this, generating
more than one million dollars in revenue. As alleged, these defendants exploited the COVID nineteen pandemic to develop and carry out a one hundred million dollar scheme to defraud taxpayers and provide easy access to Adderall and other stimulants for no legitimate medical purpose. According to Attorney General Merrick Garland, man, I'm glad these drug pushers got caught. I am so glad they got caught. They should throw them in jail and throw away the key and go after. Other people were
doing these telehealth schemes as well. We don't need more drugs, We need less drugs. That's the reality, and that's why it qualified as the health outrage of the week. I'm doctor Bob Martin. You happen to be tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Thank you for that. All right, we move right into the product recall of the week. Here we go a
seasoning recall update. As the FDA sets more severe level the food. Your Administration has issued its most severe type of food recall after Newlywed's Food and Carry, Inc. Notify the agency that several of their seasoning products might have been connaminated contaminated with Salomonela. Newlywed Foods, a Chicago based company, initiated the ongoing recall, informing the FDA that foighty five pounds of its steak and burger
seasoning products could have potentially registered the presence of the dangerous bacteria Salomonella. Wisconsin headquartered Carry Ink informed the agency that several of its seasoning products might have been contaminated as well with salmonella. The products were distributed in the states of Florida, Illinois, Texas, Arizona, California, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois,
Kansas, and Maryland, as well as Canada. All of these products are now affected by an ongoing Class one recall, which indicates the reasonable probability that the use or exposure to this food will cause serious adverse health consequences or death, according to the FDA. So if you are using any of these seasonings from newlywed foods or carry ink food seasonings, you might want to take that back or contact the company. You don't want to get ill. We don't
want you to get ill. And that's the product recall of the week. All right, let's get right back to your telephone calls and questions. Next up, we say hello to Kelly, who's going in from Iowa City, Iowa. My name is Kelly from Iowa City, Iowa. I want to know what you guys think about the surgeries or the light lass surgeries, the sleeve and the bypass. What are your guys's recommendations at any Thank you? Okay, thank you Kelly for your phone call. First and foremost, I
know enough about stomach bypass surgery and stomach sleeve surgery to be dangerous. But what I can tell you are the following things that I do know, and that is these are interesting sort of like factoids about it. University of Pittsburgh two times married or divorced within five years of getting bare beiatric surgery. Here's what they found. People who were overweight who got bypass surgery some type of geriatric surgery, they modified their stomach so that they wouldn't eat so much and
gain so much weight and lose weight. If they were unmarried at the time that they got a bariatric surgery, they were two times more likely to get married within the next five years, twice as likely to get married in the next five years if they had bariatric surgery and they were really really overweight, whereas people who got the bariatric surgery when they were married were two times more likely to be divorced as a result of getting the bariatric surgery and losing weight
and looking over at their partner and going I'm out of Here's just an interesting factoid. Now, the benefits obvious of stomach bypass or any kind of bariatric surgery is associated with reduced risk of heart disease, strokes, diabetes, cancer, premature death. We know that because being obese is highly, highly dangerous, especially morbidly obese. And yes, it can certainly improve your mental health, physical health, and general quality of life when you're not carrying around all
of that. But the risks associated with these surgeries, I don't care if it's a sleeve or stomach bypass surgery. Malnutrition, which increases the risk of many diseases. Many people who get these surgeries end up with malnutrition because the hardware, the stomach, the digestive system just doesn't work as much as well it's modified, it's never going to be the same. Gastrointestinal perforation, of course, can happen with these surgeries. Infection, bleeding, acid reflux.
These are all potential side effects of these surgeries. Lung and breathing problems, blood clots, dumping syndrome, which means you eat and you get diarrheum immediately before you even get off the chair, and then you gain the weight back. Think about how many of these movie stars and talking heads on television had bypass surgery and one day you see that they're thin, the next day they're way overweight. A governor in New Jersey reminds me of that, Chris Christy.
They can get gallstones, internal scarring, blockages happen, hernias, stomach leaking and parrots and ititis, pulmonary embolisms, ball obstruction, death, These are all potential risk of these surgeries. But people are saying to themselves, Hey, look, I am so overweight and morbidly obesi, and I'm going to roll the dice and take my chances. I get it. Sleeve the sleeve surgery, the specific type of bariatric surgery, requires a major change in
your lifestyle. If you're going to have it, you got to learn to eat portions of food small, very small portions. Alcohol, no bread, no rice, no pasta, no high fat, no sugar. Those things will set you off. And of course gastric bypass in surgeries will lower blood, sugar will lower disease. I'm not a fan of it because I think obese city is often associated with sex hormone problems, imbalances, thyroid imbalances,
serotonin and dopamine issues needing to be resolved. Emotional components hugely involved in the mind, body medicine component of being obese. So personally, I'd say get institutionalizer, get a reality show, where they dump you off on an island and you have maybe naked and a freight or something else where you don't you have to forage for yourself. You see these people losing mass amounts of weight without surgery. Maybe that's the answer. I don't know. I'm doctor Bob
Martin. Welcome Loo Baby Control now week even now we do doo b welcome. All right, you're tuned into the Doctor Bob Martsin show. We thank you for that. Stay in touch with yours truly always.

And before that, however, we have any parting feature here for you this week's health Mystery of the Week. Well patients experience an unexplained return of mental acuity in their final days before they die. Just before they die, a mysterious phenomena
called terminal lucidity is the most often seen in dementia patients. Right before they die. They have a brief period of lucidity where they come back to life and regain the qualities that make them who they are or were before the onset of the disease. All of a sudden, they can remember everything and remember
everybody where they couldn't otherwise do it just before death. This form of lucidity can include the ability to recall memories that were thought lost to the disease Alzheimer's the worst form of dementia that slowly destroys the brain, as well as the ability to communicate something that may long ago have disappeared as a consequence of their
illness. The phenomena is mysterious, it's not unique however, to those with dementia, and happens in patients with other conditions such as severe psychiatric conditions, brain disorders, tumors, meningitis, brain abscess to strokes, brain injuries,
as well as patients in comas who may wake up shortly before dying. A study by a German biologist, doctor Michael Naum, defined the terminal lucidity in an article in the Journal of Near Death Studies the reemergence of normal or unusually enhance mental ability in dull, unconscious, or mentally ill patience shortly before, including considerable elevation of mood and spiritual affectation, or the ability to speak in a previously unusual, spiritualized and elated manner. Wow, this is amazing.
So in other words, in these patients who had literally lost all brain function and memory capability suddenly right before death, they had like almost a brain second wind, if you will, and remembered everything and were lucid, very mysterious, And that's why it qualified as the health mystery of the week. Making a healthy day and a healthy week, I'm doctor Bob Martin to be well
