You're testic native driver on the Highway to health. Doctor Bob Parton, he's on the Better Health networking friends and he go doctor. They are not with them any time. Old doctor Robinson, Well, I consider it my privilege and honor to be with you here on the radio today because long ago I answered my chosen calling and talent, which is all about giving help and assistance to people who are not well or sick or infirm, and those who want
to be well and don't want to be sick or infirm. It's awesome, it's fabulous to participate in a radio show forum where sick people tune in to get healthy naturally, and will people tune into this radio show to stay healthy in the first place by gaining knowledge and information and putting it into action being their own best doctors most of the time. That's really what the theme of this show is all about. I mean, we all need doctors, sooner
or later. We all have certain things that happen in our lives where there may be a crisis management scenario that needs to take place and be corrected. And that's good and we should have that and we do and we have a good crisis management system, but we don't have a healthcare system wherein we are concerned about teaching our citizens about how to stay healthy so they don't need doctors
as often we don't have that. You must become that in and of yourself, being your own best doctor most of the time, which is really all about taking responsibility for your health. Who should be more responsible for your health than you? When you subrogate that, when you give that up to another individual, it can be very problem. And I think I know a lot
of you recognize that. So we appreciate you being here today. Coming up next hour, we're gonna have the features, the Health alternative of the Week, the Health outrage of the Week. We've got a product recall to tell you about, plus the top ten happiest cities in America. Let's find out if you're living in one of those cities that is claiming to be one of the happiest cities in America. And I have to tell you, and upon review of that list of cities, I was shocked, and you will be
too. I'm certain you will. They'll be commentary all right now, We're going to begin this hour talking about tats short for tattoos and from the outset. I want to let you know that I have kind of a built in bias about tattoos for my own body. I don't care if anybodybody else has tattoos. It's their canvas, it's their skin. They can do with it what they wish. When I grew up, the only people who had tattoos were people from the military. Military men and women who may have had an
insignia or something special tattooed on their skin. That was pretty much it. And boy has it taken off over the last decade or two. And again, I don't criticize. I don't judge anybody with tattoos. If that's what you want to do, more power to you. Personally, I don't have a single tattoo. Let me see my co pilot on the other side of the glass. His name is Daniel. He is the guy who keeps this show from crashing and burning. Daniel, I'm gonna ask you a personal question
here. If you're there, do you have any are you ink? Do you have any tattoos on your body? No? No, I've I've come out clean the many years I've been here. Oh my gosh, there's two of us in the same space here, that don't have tattoos, which has got to be rare, because I don't think you could go down the street and you know, if you had one hundred people, you'd probably find what fifty percent of them have tattoos in some manner or another. Yeah, something
like that. Oh my gosh. All right, so that leads all right, Daniel, you and I are outliers. I guess now we're the weirdos without tattoos. And that's fine. I choose not to have one. But here's an interesting article about how maybe this is why innately I have never gotten a tattoo. Besides the fact that my dad threatened my life if I ever got one without his permission when I was growing up, maybe that had something to do with it. I don't know. I'm just saying I tried that
on my kids, but I'm not successful on a number of occasions. But here we go. Ninety percent of tattoo ink contains chemicals that can cause organ damage. Daniel, Congratulations, you did not ink your canvas with chemicals that cause organ damage. Woo. So feel good in that today you have victory for Daniel, Victory for doctor Bob or anybody else listening that has not had a tattoo. Now, does that mean you're gonna get organ damage on every
single person who gets tattooed. No, it doesn't. It just means you're putting yourself at risk when you do. Because we don't know exactly what's in these inks. These inks seep into the body. The body has bloodstream all the way to the skin, and that's the problem. That's where the linkage is. More than nine in ten people who get tattoos here in the US could be unwittingly exposing themselves to chemicals that cause organ damage. Is it worth
it? That's what a study is suggesting. Tests in New York on fifty four ink samples found forty five contained compounds that were not listed on the label. In other words, they bootleg these compounds they knew were illegal or toxic, so that people wouldn't know, and therefore ignorance is bliss right. The most common was polyethylene glycol a compound that has been linked to damage to organs, including a type of necrosis in the kidneys. Now, in case you
don't recognize the word necrosis, here's the definition of it. Necrosis is the death of most of all the cells in an organ or tissue due to disease, injury, or failure of the blood supply. That's what these tattoos are capable of doing. Necrosis of your kidney. Kidneys are your body filter. You're causing damage potentially to the filters of your body by dumping these poisons that
exude into your body from the tattoo ink. Other in this tattoo ink scenario, others included two feno ethanol, which has been linked to nervous system dysfunction, and an antibiotic. The Food in reg Administration is set to start regulating tattoo ink in the coming months. Man, are they slow to the trigger or what the FDA? What a joke? The FDA is needs to be dismantled and reform. They were behind this also the complete disaster of the management
and partly behind it the management of COVID. We know this. In the coming months though, they're gonna look at tattoo inks to see if they can regulate it. Finally, after a vote in Congress in late twenty twenty two gave the agency the power to do so, Legislators decided on the shift after multiple reports of illness caused by microbial contaminations in tattoos. In other words, you got hygiene and sanitation issues. What do you think all the hepatitis is
caught in the tattoo shops? Not always. Many tattoo artists are very conscientious about this and do everything they can, but that's where a lot of the exposure occurs. About a third of Americans have tattoos now, suggests a survey, and among adults aged thirty to forty nine years of age, as many as half have been inked we were right, Daniel. About fifty percent of people between the age of thirty and forty nine years of age have tattoos.
Tattoos are also becoming more common among celebrities, which may be fueling their popularity with such figures as Justin Bieber, Alan Levine, Adam Levine, I should say, and actors and sports celebrities jumping on the trend. And as soon as a celebrity gets a tatt oh man does that set into motion the desire for the sheeple to go get one too, and more extreme versions you see
like machine gun Kelly blackout. Tattoos are also becoming more common. In a study published in the Journal of the American analytical chemistry scientists collected INC samples from nine US based manufacturers. The ingredients found in the tests were then compared to those listed on the ink labels in order to reveal the discrepancies. The tests also spotted an antibiotic propelein glycol, which is typically used for urinary track infections
and wasn't declared on the label. So you see where this is going. I mean, when you get a tattoo, you're taking a lot of risks that you don't understand and realize that could happen. I will finish this up. On the other side, it isn't good. You're tuned into the Doctor Bob Martin show. The number one health concern is we move towards and beyond the age of retirement, is fear of losing our vision and therefore the ability
to remain independent. Most of us, at some point in time have uttered the words I'm not seeing as well as I used to, or I think I need stronger glasses. If you are nearing or past age forty, it's not your imagination that your vision is getting worse. What is likely causing your vision to deteriorate is cataract formation. Cataracts occur when the lens of the eye becomes cloudy and blocks light from entering, which interferes with sharp, clear vision.

We'll get back to the conversation and finish up on the information that I started out talking about this hour related to the fact that ninety percent of tattoo ink, the chemicals within the ink that are imparted into a human being skin, can cause organ damage. We'll get back to that momentarily, but I also want to let you know that if if there's something that you'd like to comment about.
Maybe last hour, when I was talking about the drug ozempic, and we wed a large portion of that hour, we dedicated it to playing excerpts from Tucker Carlson's podcast, where he interviewed a former pharmaceutical consultant by the name of Callie Means, the co founder of truemed dot com. I thought it was an excellent interview. They covered a lot of ground as it relates to the
drug ozempic which is being abused big time. And if you didn't, if you weren't able to listen to last hour, it'll be in the podcast library as of this coming Wednesday at doctor Bob dot com doctr bob dot com. You'll see a button right on the home page. There a colored button at the very bottom, and just click on that takes you over to the podcast library, which is where all shows, past shows are there to listen to
again or for the first time. If you have somebody in your life that is currently taking o sempic and you believe that it would be important for them to learn about the potential downside of this drug, which are many. It's just an absolute disaster drug, you know, originally earmark for type two diabetes, now being abused. Anybody who wants to lose five pounds or ten pounds or fifteen or fifty is taking ozembic, but they don't realize what they're getting
into. And I think that that interview that Carlson Tucker performed with Kelly Means covers a lot of it, and it's just shocking anybody taking that drug after hearing that ought to be Really there's something wrong in my opinion against not a judgment, And I want to also let you know that there is a health phole question we'd love to get your opinion of on my website at doctor Bob
dot com. Do you believe it's fair for doctors to charge you for refilling a medication that they already made during an office visit just to refill it, just to allow a refill prescription takes about two seconds. Are you okay with them charging you one hundred dollars to do that? Up to one hundred dollars? Are you okay with doctors charging you up to one hundred dollars to write a sick note so that you can get out of work or your child can
get out a gym, class, or school. Are you okay with doctors charging you one hundred dollars for replying to an email that you send over to that doctor's office or a text message or something like that. Are you okay with that? Yes? Or no? Please vote on my website at doctor Bob dot com. We'll have the results and tell you about the reason why
we're asking that question. And if you want to join us here with a comment, whether it's about tattoos and organ damage or something related to that or osimpic which we covered last hour, you're welcome to call in, or if you have a general health question about yourself, I'll do my best to help
you out with that.

And then on your touchdown phone Doctor Bob Drbob eight eight eight five five three seven two sixty two. And of course my website always there. You have options of Instagram x formerly Twitter LinkedIn. It's all there,
plus news from around the globe. And again it's where the podcast library lives. Back to the issue about tattoos and the ink in tattoos causing potential organ damage and individuals tattoo ink being put into the body by tattoo artists and there's a lot of you know, great and very skilled tattoo artists out there who are very creative, they're very conscientious about hygiene and sanitation, but there are plenty of them that are not. And I think that a lot of them
who do tattoos are not aware that the tattoo inks that they're using. There's a lot of stuff in there that is not even on the label tattoo. Ink put into the body by tattoo artists may be absorbed by these cells white blood cells called macrophases, the type of white blood cell that's so important to your immune system, which then hold the ink in the skin, keeping the
tattoo in place. But in some cases, it is possible for the impurities within that ink that's in the skin that's impacting the macrophase or the white blood cell, to leach into the bloodstream and spread through the body, raising the risk of unwanted side effects, such as the lead part of this article, which has to do with damaging certain organs, perhaps your kidneys. Now Dermatologists had previously warned against tattoos, saying these make it harder to detect skin cancers
and contain impurities that can raise the risk of complications. There was a doctor by the name of doctor Mark Everett, a plastic surgeon, commenting on this, he's I think he practices in New York, who is not involved in this study, that says he has previously suggested the tattoo inks can also cause inflammation and lymph nodes which are also there to carry away fluids around the body
and contain white blood cells to fight infection and disease. This is, by the way, the first study, the first study to explicitly look at ink sold here in the United States, and is probably the most comprehensive look at it about the pigments that are being used by tattoo artists on your son and your daughter, or your aunt and your uncle, or your cousins or your nieces and nephews who are wandering in sometimes higher than a kite, into a
tattoo parlor because they have now a packed if you get one, I'll get one, or they go in on a bet, or they you know, they just like tattoos. And again, no judgments, because I think everybody should have the ability to decide whether they get a tattoo or not. I choose not to the co pilot of this show on the other side of the glass, taking care of all the technicalities of the Daniel. He doesn't have any tats either. I'm surprised because usually i'm odd man out, I'm the
outlier. But and I'm glad because you know, after I might have gotten tattoos had I not realized that there just for me is just if you put an ink inside the skin and that skin has access to the bloodstream. It just made sense to me. And then that with the threat of my dad in the back of my head saying, son, you will not have a tattoo. You will not walk through that door before age eighteen with a tattoo.
Don't do it. I'm warning you now. Of course they never told me what I would what would happen if I got a tattoo, But it didn't matter. I didn't want to face it, and that was I'm sure part of my motivation not to muck up my canvas, my skin. But again, no judgment, because I believe that if you want a tattoo, you should get a tattoo. It's your prerogative. It's your skin, your choice, your decision. But for me, no, And when I read
articles like this, it confirms that it was probably a good decision. But I want other people to know too, because I don't think young people even give it a second thought as to whether or not there are chemicals in the tattoo, inc Or the possibility that they could get a hepatitis infection, even though it may be low getting a tattoo. I don't think a lot of young people say to themselves, yeah, I think I'm going to pass on tattoos because if I do, I've heard that I could get organ damage.
I don't think people even get that a consideration when they get tattoos, because usually they don't know about it. But now you do pass it on. That's what the Doctor Bob Martin Show is all about. All right, we're going to come back. We're going to take your phone calls open topics here on the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Will you were right back?

Doctor Bob. Now, this doctor in my entire family and most of my healthcare colleagues who are interested in avoiding excessive problems associated with the oral cavity ie the mouth, as in the case of tooth decay, gingervitis, periodontal disease, and even bad breath, we all use something called Spry Spry toothpaste. Now, you may not have heard of Spry toothpaste because the big boys on the block, Crest and Colgate and Rembrandt and Sensidine and all of those been
out there forever. They're giant, and they have so many chemicals in them. I would never put them in my mouth or allow my children to use them whatsoever. But Spry is clean, it's healthy. It is also the one that is full of xylatol. That's the secret sauce, if you will, inside that toothpaste that keeps your mouth clean and shuts down the decay and all these other problems you don't want. So if you get as uptight as I do about visiting a dental provider, here's what I do to be my
own best dental hygienist and my own best dentist, if you will. Most of the time I burst my teeth was Spry, Spry toothpaste and mouthrints. They also have, by the way, chewing gum and mints that are full of xylotol as well, and they are delicious, including flavors like peppermint and cinnamon and spearmint. As they said, the secret sauce, which is really not a secret sauce because it's science based is xylotol. It's used by millions
of people. Xylotol is a plant based ingredient in the Spry, Spry toothpaste and mouthrints, gum and mint. It's anti cavity, anti plaque, anti bad news. The next time you go to your dentist and dental provider, they're going to take a look in your mouth and whisper, hey, what are you doing. Whatever you do and keep it going because it's good if you don't need or you don't want fillings, root canals, crowns, extractions, ouch use Spry Dental Defense system, which includes the toothpaste, the mouth
rints, and all the rest of it. It creates an easy, inexpensive way to have xylotol throughout the day without needing to change your habits. If you want a squeaky clean oral cavity, gums, breath, mints, all of it works well. Spry Dental Defense Spright Dental Defense is available at CBS, Right Aid Pharmacies. Spray Dental Defense and all the goodies in it available at Target, Vitamin Shop, Sprouts, and all natural grocer stores nationwide.

All right, let's go to the phones now. First up, as promised, is Merwin. Merwin's calling in from the state of Iowa. Welcome to the doctor, Bob Martin show Merwin. Hello, Hello, Yes, sir, go right ahead. Put motor oil on a burn, non detergent motor oil. It will take the heat away. Uh
not all no stars or nothing. Yeah. Not the best idea in the world, uh Merwin, because that motor oil has petrochemicals in it, which will then seep into the wound of the burn. There's better idea. Let me give that to you, sir, if I were you. If you get a burn from motor oil, hot motor oil, and I've gotten that many men have that work on cars when we're young. The best thing you can do is clean it so that there's no potential infection. Maybe even put
some hydrogen peroxide on it. After that, cool it down, maybe with some ice like an ice pack. Then find yourself an aloe plant and break the alloy plant open and let that alo plant ooze over the burn on your skin and you see there. With plant material, you don't have to worry about petrochemicals toxins that come from gasoline, which is what oil is. You know, it's how things happen, and when you have that kind of material,
it's it's not that optimal. There's also something called Willard water. I have used this and recommended this to many patients over the years that got burns. It doesn't matter if it's a burn with an iron burn, if you're ironing clothes or hot grease that pops off the stove. If you get a little burn, if you use Willard water, which is available by the way, in health food stores. It's a concentrate. It's not something you drink
straight. You add it to your water to change the surface tension of water. It makes the water actually wetter, which sounds a little strange, but it's true. It makes it more absorbable. So the idea is that Willard water on top of the burn will suck into the burn and give it hydration and reduce some of the inflammation. There's also an old remedy that you may want to take a look at if you ever get a burn, where you use a combination of lavender which is an essential oil. You know, the
lavender flowers in a extracted concentrate and honey. You mix those together, you put it over a burn and it works phenomenally at reducing that burn, so you don't have to put petrochemical on there. And then while you're working on the outside in on a burn to get it calmed down and keep it from becoming infected, you know, with a bandage or peroxide or whatever you need
to use to disinfect it, make sure it's clean internally. What you do to hasten the healing process of any kind of a wound or burn, whether it's a sunburn or a burn from oil hot oil, is you increase your level of vitamin C, which means more fruit, more vegetables, and maybe a supplement of vitamin C bioflavonoid, vitamin C complex, extra amount of zinc, which is the body's natural band aid, and vitamin E. Vitamin C, E and zinc are the nutrients going inside out, and this alo and
the willard water and the lavender honey perhaps outside in, and you have a good regimen to heal this up without putting petrochemicals on your skin. Thanks for your call, though, Merwin.

back to this hour of the Doctor Bob Marson's show. Appreciate you tuning into the program and telling others to do the very same thing. We're here each and every week, same time, same place, and the way that you refer other people in your life to this radio show is very simple. Whether it be a family member, a coworker, a friend, a neighbor,
you simply have them listen into the station you're tuned into right now. In other words, you should write down the call letters of the station you're listening to, the frequency on the dial if it's an a mr FM station, time of the day, and they just pass it on to as many people as you can so they have the same opportunity that you do to tune into this show and learn what you're learning. It could save their life, could
improve their quality of life. And if they are unable to listen to the radio show, or perhaps you're out of the country one day and you cannot get the show in another country or a place, then you can certainly go over to my website doctor Bob dot com live streaming audio. There at the best place to listen to. The show is right there on the radio station
you're listening to right now. All right, now, before we get back to phone calls and questions, I want to talk about men with beer bellies and the fact that the science is now showing that men who have protruding abdomens sticking out like they're three to six months or nine months pregnant. Men who present with these beer bellies may have a higher risk of dementia. Oh boy,
dementia. Now. I have to tell you that when I grew up in the sixties and seventies, men who had the biggest beer bellies were considered manly men, as their gut protrusions garnered genuine respect among peers. Oh yeah, that's what they were. Bigger is better. I mean, he who's got the biggest beer belly holds more beer. Right, That's what I was
led to believe growing up in the sixties and seventies. Well, now we know that that goiter, that beer belly hanging out in front of men and it's a problem tells us that that person has a higher risk of dementia, i e. The worst form of dementia, Alzheimer's. You lose your memory, you lose your identity. You don't know who you are. You don't know if horseback, you don't know if you drive a car or even have
a car if it gets bad enough. But listen to the researchers at Rutgers Health and in Israel claimed beer bellies or pot bellies may cause brain aging and reduced cognition in middle aged men. That's what a study found. Those carrying extra abdominal weight and with a family history of Alzheimer's disease were found to have lower brain function. Researchers believe higher fat deposits in the pancreas and liver may lead to a higher risk of dementia. And of course people with those bellies
hanging out have all that inflammatory fat, all that centralized adipocity. That's just like a stoken fire in their gut and they don't even realize it. Michael Schneider, Mary of Rutger's Health, New Jersey set and I quote in middle aged males at high risk of Alzheimer's risk but not females have higher pancreatic fat, and it was associated with a lower cognition and brain volumes, suggesting a
potential sex specific link. Distinct abdominal fat and with brain health. In other words, the researchers studied about over two hundred healthy middle aged people with a family of Alzheimer's disease, and what they found is men with higher abdominal fat and protruding abdomens had lower cognitive function, meaning lower memory ability. Previous studies have shown that men with a higher BMI body mass index are at a higher
risk of dimension. Now this excludes weightlifters because the body mass index is not that great of an indicator of someone's health. There are flaws, it's not a perfect system, but this new research suggests the problem relates specifically to the
middle age spread. What they're talking about. Their findings indicate stronger correlations compared to the relationships between this body mass index and cognition, suggesting that abdominal fat deposits rather than the just the basal metabolic index score risk factor has to do with a higher dementia risk. Now this study, if you want to look it up for yourself. If you don't believe me, go to the journal Obesity. The excess fat that accumulates around the torso and surrounds these vital organs,
also known as visceral fat. It's a bad, bad type of fat you don't want because it's inflammatory and it impacts everything in its space, and it contributes to the beer belly or the protruding gut abdomen. This visceral fat is the most dangerous type, leaking these fat acids into the bloodstream. Now it differs from the less dangerous subcutaneous fat that accumulates just below the skin's surface
and is responsible for wobbly fat or cellulite. It comes after a study of more than two and a half million people and found that for every four inches in waste size increase was associated with an eleven percent higher chance of dying prematurely from any cause. So the more your wasist line gets larger, you are ticking fast towards higher mortality rates. Big time pun intended. So there you
have it. If you've got the beer belly, there's a way to get rid of it through pulling back on the carbs the beer and getting some exercise. We'll be right back, I'm doctor Bob Martin. Life would not exist if humans were unable to make nitric oxide within our blood vessel walls. There are many factors that reduce our ability to produce enough nitric oxide to enjoy optimal health. Contributors to the development of nitric oxide deficiency include consumption of sugar,
unhealthy fats, inflammation, age, and unhealthy lifestyle. Here's the great news about re establishing optimal nitric oxide levels. Doctor Nathan Bryan, a leading world authority on nitric oxide supplementation, developed the best great tasting nitric oxide lozenge called N one oh one back by twenty years of science. Beware of companies trying to capitalize on doctor Brian's work selling imitation products claiming to increase nitric oxide.

Doctor Bob Martin back with you, and I want you to stick around because next hour I'm going to be talking about really the antidote for people who are concerned about ozimpic. If you weren't with us the first hour of the program, I played excerpts an entire hour of segmented up excerpts from the Tucker Carlson podcast where he was interviewing He had interviewed a pharmaceutical representative about
ozembic and the disaster that that drug is. And in the third hour, next hour of the show, I'm going to be talking about how you should say no to ozempic and yes to beans and toast for healthy weight loss. Since nearly one in three Americans are over weight or obese, and more than two in five adults have obesity as of last year, the last time it was counted, and one in five children in the US are obese. It's
a problem, big problem, pun intended. Now we have Oprah Winfrey recently resigning as a board member from Weight Watchers as she finally admits to taking weight loss drugs, which is the opposite of the original philosophy of emphasizing the importance of portion control, food choices, slow consistent weight loss, changing your behavior, making better choices. Now she's just saying, the heck with all of that, I'm just going to take the ozembic and be done with it and
take my risks with that dangerous drug. And of course now the stock of weight Watchers is plummeting. We'll talk about this study out of Shanghai Clinical Center for Diabetes and how to address losing weight without the adversarsy side effects of ozambic. All right, let's even squeeze a phone calling before the end of the hour. Here is Bernice in the state of Arizona. Welcome to the doctor Bob Martin Show, Bernice. Hello, Hi, good Lorning. I asked
a question about macular degeneration. Has anybody out there or you heard of anybody that's ever been able to reverse it a little too where you can see more than just a white, blurry T shirt And would Willard Water help? Can you put it in your eyes? No, you can't put that in your eyes. And with macular degeneration, once it's diagnosed, you know the key there is shutting it down and stopping it from getting worse. And there are ways to do that, and you do that by knowing what's going on.
This is really about your retina. Your retina. That's what macular degeneration's about. The retina is the thin nerve tissue in the back of the eye. And so what you'd want to do is make sure you're getting plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet, particularly carrots, green juice, berries, sweet potatoes, kale, spinach, blueberries, collared greens, all of that, anything that's colorful you want. You also want high fiber foods, plenty of
fluids. Water Coconut water is excellent, by the way. Stuff to avoid when macular degeneration is too much caffeine, sugar, and inflammatory foods. Get the list of those and avoid those. Also over at Wise Choice Medicine, they make a supplement for that. We'll be right back
