Whether it's riveting or lame, it doesn't matter, And I'll give out the phone number here in a little bit. But here are the
books that we're giving away. These are brand new, by the way, and they are authored by doctor cass Igram, who is a health expert and its authored more than twenty five different books. The first book is called The Health Benefits of Whole Food Turmeric, the world's top natural anti inflammatory herb. Now you know, turmeric has a lot of different medicinal activities associated with it that have been scientifically proven, including treating pain, both acute and chronic pain.

chronic infection, skin conditions. A reginal oil is an amazing oil. And I have used reg oil as well as turmeric, but to a lesser extent. Pine pollen, which is the latest greatest stuff out. But most of these plants, most of these botanicals have been used safely for probably thousands of years. All right, here's our phone number again, as we're celebrating a book health book giveaway in our number one only, so jump on it,
don't get shut out, avoid disappointment and future regret. Our phone number into the program toll free nationwide eight eight eight five five three seven two six two. That's eight eight eight fifty five. And then on your touchdown phone Doctor Bob, Dr Bob eight eight eight five five three seven two six two. Here's also some very important information we're going to be discussing on the show today that you will definitely not want to miss out on. This is just a
hint of what we're going to be talking about. We are loaded full of information. We're gonna be talking about antidepressants. Do you know anybody who is taking antidepressants right now? Well, we know they're dished out to tens of millions of people despite shockingly lack of evidence, wow, lack of evidence for dishing out these antidepressant drugs, and you'll learn why on the program today. So much I guess for the science behind what the big pharma and conventional medicine
bragg endlessly about in their justification for prescribing this class of pharmaceutical drugs. Because we know millions of antidepressants are being dished out for chronic pain each year despite lacking evidence that they actually work. And so a major scientific review that's what it's found, and investigation into these medical drugs to manage long term pain found
that they harm so many people. Yet tens of millions of these prescriptions and tens of millions of people are taking this class of drugs every day and throughout the year, and yet it lacks scientific evidence. And we're going to get
into that today. So stick around for that, because sooner or later you might run into somebody who is taking some form of drug for pain, and they may be taking an antidepressant drug because when you go into a doctor's office, it's just so overly common that the doctor may prescribe a drug as an antidepressant if the person's depressed. But they also say, well, you know, my knee hurts too, doc, and I've got pain and I'm sore
and i'm stiff all the time. Well let's give you this antidepressant for that pain. We're going to be getting into that conversation today, so stick around. Also, I'm going to be telling you how to improve your memory. The weirdest scientifically proven methods you likely haven't heard of. So if you believe that your memory could stand a little improvement, we'll have that and I think you're going to find it highly interesting and it's self directed. These are things
you can do on your own. Some of them you don't have to take pills, powders, or potions either to actually improve your memory safely and naturally. We also have a health poll question love to get your opinion up here goes like this, Do you believe it's a good idea to have birth control pills available over the counter over the counter, en just go in and just grab one off the shelf? Yes or no? Well, that may be
coming this summer. FDA's thinking about approving birth control pills over counter over the counter this summer. What do you think? Yes or no? Vote over at doctor Bob dot com. We'll be right back. The number one health concern as we move toward orden beyond the age of retirement is fear of losing our vision and therefore the ability to remain independent.

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.

how can I help you, sir. I like the information that you're giving out today, and one that I wanted to speak on was Lion's Main. Yes, sir, I love that herb Yes, my wife was doing the powder and then we actually grew quite a bit of this last year and try to promote the benefits to individuals, just in terms of having the ability to promote brain cell development with a disclaimer, don't want to mix that with alcohol. But I just thought maybe your audience would like to hear more on
the benefits of Lions Main. And I'm glad you brought it up. I'm glad you brought it up. Jeff. You go ahead. And there's also a lot of folks that seem to be having Parkinson's disease and it seems to be a great help for that as well. Okay, well, let me just for those people who may not be familiar with this, Jeff, and I'm glad you called into the program with that, because that's how people learn. It's just triggering things, and that's the power of talk radio. Lions
Main, folks, is mushrooms. It's a special genus of mushrooms, strain of mushrooms, which has we're just starting I think to learn about lions main mushrooms. I mean, we just don't time you turn around, there's something new about that particular mushroom that is discovered through scientific research. And as Jeff pointed out, we know that swallowing this mushroom or ingesting this mushroom in any form food or powder or capsule, which it is available in health food stores,
it helps the growth of brain cells. I have used a Jeff for helping treat people with ringing in the ears because we know that's a nerve related disorder, and we think that Lionsman helps to stimulate what is called nerve growth factor and GF nerve growth factor. But interestingly enough, it has other potential benefits beyond that, helping people with depression and anxiety and problems with their gut health, even the immune system, because most mushrooms have a lot of other
special medicinal activity to it. So it's safe, it's highly a effective, And we've got you down, Jeff, and you're in the contest to win and actually get a copy of these special books that we're giving away today. All right. Next up, we say hello to Dab and Dab is calling in from the state of New Mexico. Welcome to the Doctor Bob Martin Show, DAB. Hello, Hello, and thank you for taking my call. I appreciate it greatly. Yes, I've got a question, but it's kind
of a two part question. Make it as quickly make it if you can. But there's a lot of people waiting to get on the air, and that I should have said from the outset. It's the reader's digest condensed version. Brevity is appreciated, so making it fair for everybody wishing to get into the show, DAB. So if you can't, please Okay. How do you tell the difference between a heidel hernia and an ulcer? And how do you cure that ulcer naturally? Okay, good question. It's going to be
difficult because the symptoms are the same. You can have a heidel hernia, which is a diaformatic her which is really not the same as let's say, a peptic ulcer or de waudenal ulcer that is an irritation that is caused by usually H. Pylori. He look a bacter pylori, which is a bacterium. About seventy to eighty percent of ulcers are caused by this little bacterium that sixty percent of people were therefore close to it have any at any given time.
According to the World Health Organization, a heidel hernia is a stretching, an opening of the sphincter in the lower esophageal area where the stomach protrudes back up through this little sphincter into the esophagus, spilling the contents of the stomach into the esophagus, and it can go all the way up the throat, into the throat and into the mouth. So that's the difference. One is a muscular stretching and the other is a irritation and may possibly causing a hole
or perforation. How do you deal with it? Well, one with a heideal hernia, which is a biomechanic muscular problem, you don't eat and lie down on a full stomach. You find a chiropractic physician or somebody that's trained and applied kinesiology that can do this stretching technique to pull the stomach down and get it back into its proper position through a series of stretches. In fact, the results the actual way to do that is right on my website in
the self help section of my website at doctor Bob dot com. How to help naturally a hideal hernia as far as the ulcer. If it's an ulcer caused by let's say this bacterium that I just mentioned, H. Pylori helico back to pylori, you can use gum mastic to help that. You can use zinc carnessine to help that. We've had great results using doctor Oherra's probiotics
for stomach ulcers, dwaldenal ulcers and other ulcers in the digestive system. Kyolic garlic age garlic extract also helps because it helps knock the bugs out that are causing the ulcer, which is H. Pylori. So there are plenty of ways to help with these kinds of stomach distresses, whether it's you know, a gastritis or an ulcer. Obviously, if if you're having black stools, you need to see a doctor because you're bleeding in the upper GI track.
That's serious. That requires medical intervention. If it's serious enough to stop it, that may even require something else, but at least that gives you a running idea of what to do.

Welcome or welcome back to this hour of the Doctor Bob Martin Shoe. Now, shortly we're going to get to some information about how antidepressants. Antidepressant drugs are being prescribed and dished out to tens of millions of people despite the shocking
lack of evidence for those prescription drugs. We'll get to that in just a little bit. Did you know that the US Surgeon General says that good oral health leads to good overall health, that if your oral health is not in tiptop shape, you are at risk for all kinds of significant health problems. That's what the US Surgeon General said. The report states that good oral health leads to good overall health, and a person cannot get healthy without good oral
health. It also states that safe and effective disease prevention measures exist that everyone can adopt to improve oral health and prevent oral disease. Now that leads me to this very important point. If your current toothpaste, I don't care if it's coalgate, crest, thorough breath, sensitying, Rembrandt, whatever, if
it doesn't contain a delicious preferred sweetener in it called xilatol. If it is not rich in xilotolf, you cannot read on the label of your oral health product, whether it be mouth rents or mouthwash or toothpaste, if it is not rich in zilatol, which is that preferred sweetener that is anti gum disease, anti cavity, anti tooth decay, anti periodontal disease, you are missing the boat. You see, when you put any kind of food in your
mouth that is of a carbohydrate nature, that's the food. That's the food supply that bugs love to get hold of and start generating their little family, and then they excrete substances that cause the cavities called Streptococcus mutants. Just ask your dentist about this. Your dental protractitioner will tell you it's the Streptococcus mutagens made in your mouth from the foods that get in your mouth, usually carbohydrates,
that cause all the damage. Well, this sweetener that I'm talking about, which is delicious, called xylatol spelled x y l I t ol tricks those sweet those germs, those bugs that cause all the damage and distress to your oral cavity and beyond. It tricks them and they ingest it and they die, They leave, they go away. This is why we and the doctor Bob Martin family have for twenty plus years used Spry Spry toothpaste and dental mouth rints and mouthwash, and you should too, especially if you want to
reduce your risk of tooth decayed gingivitis and paradigmal zas in your family. The germs cannot digest this sweetener and they die. It's sort of like a beaten switch program, which is good for you. Remember read the label. If your tube of toothpaste or your mouthwash does not say zilatol on it spelled x y L I t o L, put it down, kick it to the curb, and jump on this opportunity to get the cleanest oral cavity and cleanest teeth in town. Now you might be asking how do I get a hold
of the Spry dental defense system. You go to either CBS Pharmacy and get it, Write Aid, Target, vitamin shop, Sprouts, farmers markets, natural grocers. They all carry the Spry Spry toothpaste and mouthwash. And if you can't find it in one of those places where you're in a rural area, go to their website, Clear x L e R the X and Clearstancer Zylatol xl ear dot com, Clear dot com or finer health and grocery and drug stores everywhere for the Spry Spry dental defense system. All right, it
has promised. Millions of Americans are using antidepressants and they're being dished out for chronic pain each year despite very little if any evidence that they work for pain. That's what a major scientific review is found and investigation into medical drugs to manage long term pain. Yes, people are being prescribed antidepressants for long term pain. I guess to just keep them loopy. I don't know why they
found that it harms many of them. Of these common drugs that they're being prescribed, they're poorly researched, yet tens of millions of prescriptions of these drugs, including amitriptylin and also prozac are dished out and have been dished out for
years for long term pain management. Scientists said that this is these drugs, this class of drugs has a shocking lack of evidence around its long term effects of taking antidepressants, leaving tens of thousands of people at significant risk of harm
from taking these unnecessary and not provable for long term pain drugs. They urge physicians to prioritize drug giving for which there is some evidence of their holistic therapies that should be used instead of that, and maybe changing the person's lifestyle or
talk therapy something. With around one in three people suffering from chronic pain in the United States, antidepressant use is increasing as doctors seek to alleviate symptoms without using potential addictive opioids, so they're moving away from the addictive opioids to these
antidepressant drugs which do not work. Other over the counter drugs such as a stamp the active ingredient in its highlanol and ibprofen the active ingredient and motorant are now deemed both ineffective and potentially damaging, leaving doctors with limited options, and that's why they're moving into the antidepressant category of prescriptions. The two year study on this from the Cochrane Group, which is the world authority on scientific medicine.
Two year Cochrane Study largest ever assessment of antidepressants recommended by leading bodies, including in the UK here also in the United States. They are the gold standard review looked at over one hundred and seventy six studies involving thirty thousand people and eighty nine treatments, ranging from various types of antidepressants to psychological therapies and
physiotherapy. It found that there is insufficient evidence to determine either how effective or harmful most of these antidepressants are, with scientists particularly concerned over the lack of research into the long term use of antidepressant drugs for long term pain. So what do you do? Well? Look, there are other ways of treating pain, both acute and structural and acute, including trying to get to the
actual cause of the pain. NUTCH is covered up with painting over termites or putting band aids on people in the form of potent pharmaceuticals, which have lots and lots of adverse side effects. Most of these pains can be handled safely and naturally. Biomechanical problems, muscular skeleton problems see your chiropractor, see your acupunctures, see your massage. Therapists use herbs like percuman ashuaguanda, proteolytic enzymes, homeopathic remedies, and on and on and on. You have options,
and it doesn't necessarily have to include risky pharmaceutical drugs like antidepressants. We'll be right back on, doctor Bob Martin. The number one health concern and as we move toward 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. A science based cataract reversal eye drop called CANC

You need an ambulance, you need crisis management. That's not what this show is about.

over the counter? Just like walking in and buying a bottle of aspirin or an anti acid or some kaopectake. It doesn't matter. You just go in pull it off the shelf, birth control pills, things that can modulate the hormone system. Anybody and everybody could go in and buy it. That's what the FDA is thinking about approving this summer. Do you think it's a good idea, yes or no to allow these birth control pills to go over the counter. You can vote on that on my website at doctor Bob dot com.

It should be every single day of the year in my opinion, and I think a lot of you would agree with that. But a very healthy and happy
Mother's Day to all you special ladies in our lives on this day. All right, let's get back to your phone calls and questions. Next up is Anna calling in from Missouri or Missouri, depending on where you're living. Welcome to the program, Anna, Hello, Hi doctor Bob. And just went to the er and I thought that I'd had a detached RATNA systems are represented as flashes of light to the outside of my right eye and also on a large floaters. I've had floaters before, and I wear glasses that they have
a hard time seeing distances sixty one. They did an ultrastound that the eye looked good and looked okay. They suggested it might be the vitreous fluid that may have detached from what andrewstoomed and recommended that I follow up with anophimologists, which I will do, just wondering is there anything that I can do to improve the situation? Okay, good question, Anna, Now that's true.
You want to rule out any kind of retinal situation, which it can be where you get these flashing white lights, especially when you turn your eyes to the side rapidly or in a dark room where you see these light flashes, that could be the retinal detaching. But it also could be, like they said, the vitreous the floaters. But it can also be an optical migraine going on. You could have a and it doesn't you don't have to have pain in your neck or pain in your head. Sometimes a optical migraine will
manifest itself in these white flashes. These flashes. So in that case of what I would say to you you know what. This could be mechanical. This could be something related to your upper neck area. It could be a misalignment of the atlas or your oxyput the skull, or even your jaw joint. I've seen it in patience with these same things. It's best to have the most damaging thing ruled out with your ophthalmologist MD. Absolutely need to do
that. But if they come up with nothing and all you have is leftover is it might be floaters. We don't know for sure. What I would do is make an appointment with your chiropractor so that they could examine your neck, your upper neck area, especially your jaw joint, or any cranial bone
problems that maybe happen there. I would do that. Additionally, there's no reason why you cannot get started on some type of nutritional eye support in the form of drops and nutrients that will supply the system with nutrients you may not be getting that helped support eyehealth. One the eye drop we talk about and have for years on the program to support the entire eye and that includes the
retina, is the can see eyedrops by Wise Choice Medicine. I would go over to their website at Wise Choice Medicine dot Com and start looking around at what they have available over there. Wise, Choice Medicine dot Com can see eyedrops. They also have some supplements for eye health as well. Anna, thank you so very much for your phone call. I wish you well. I'm doctor Bob Martin.

The worst part about having a team is having to fire an employee. When is the right time to do it well. First of all, if they steal, lie, or do something else that violates their character, you got to pull the band aid off and get them out of here. The second part's a
little bit more nuanced, a performance related issue. If they're performing poorly, have a meeting with them and explain the issue and set the standard and ask them to comply. If they're still not performing, write them up and give them a target. If you don't do X by why you're gone. If they're still not performing, they've chosen not to work here. Make the switch. Give your team members opportunities to correct their behavior, but do not tolerate
lying, stealing, or other character issues. Join America's Small Business Conversation on The Pat Miller Show, Available now at Paton Miller Show dot com.

Could you tell me a little bit about that, please, Well, there's been a lot of advancements in ophthalmology,
optimologic surgery, and lasers. I'm not certain about the scraping of what you're talking about in a post cataract surgery patient.
