sure. How to improve your memory, that's what I want to talk about, as promised, and boy oh boy talk about some of the weirdest but yet scientifically proven methods on how to improve your memory. Now you might be saying, well, I don't need to improve my memory. I am sharp as attacked. I really can recall stuff. Well, a lot of people can. They forget where they put their car keys, They forget where they laid their last set of cheater glasses down, which room it's in there searching
around for it. They can't remember when they walk through the threshold of a door or went into from one room to the next. They can't remember why they walked into the room and they stopped cold in their tracks, going why did I come in here? Or people notice that suddenly people's names and places and dates suddenly are fading and they sky, yeah, I just it's on
the tip of my tongue. Well, there may be a way to help improve your memory, because simply put, memory there's really a mental activity of recalling information that you've learned or you've experienced. Your memory is stored and as a result of a complex electrical signal system in your brain, which causes the change in the physical structure your brain. And whether you have a stored memory, whether it's short or long term, it depends on exactly how the event
of that information is received by your brain. So the good news is there are ways, as weird as they may sound to you, ways to help improve your memory, your cognition. And we're gonna start with this one that everybody's gonna love, especially you chocoholics in the audience today. The good news is for chocolate lovers. It turns out that a compound in chocolate, the bean, the cacao, a compound in coco can actually help boost your memory.
It's true. Twenty twenty one study found that the flavlavon als these are plant chemicals, flavor and alls that are abundant in coco beans improve the performance in a list of learning tasks for people between the ages of fifty and seventy five. These are the who are struggling with their memories, so think little
do for people who are even younger than that. These flavinyls belong to a group of compounds called polyfenols, which we have talked about on this radio show a lot, especially with Terry Lemron from Terry Naturally Vitamins, the Polyfinol Defense system and polyfinol defense supplements that his company puts out at Terry Naturally Vitamins.
And these polyphenols, which are also abundant also in certain foods that you can consume like onions and leeks and broccoli and blueberries, and olive oil and tea and even red wine have these flavanols in them that help improve your memory and preserve memory function. Flavanols are their bioactive food constituents that protect against cognitive aging and enhance your cognitive performance because they improve blood flow to your brain. That's
what these polyphinals are capable of doing. Here's the next one. Sunshine. Yeah, sunshine. As simple as being out in the outdoors and getting sunshine. Spending more time in the sun can help boost your short term memory that's what the research shows. This is not anecdotal. Here. In twenty twenty one, experts from the University of Bradford looked at how and this is in
the animal model, but they believe it's the same in humans. They looked at how these animals performed in memory tests when exposed to short and long term photo periods, which is in the sun periods of exposure to light, and they found a significant link between poor memory and short day lengths, akin to
what humans experienced during the winter season and in memmos. There's an explanation for the loss of short memory during daylight periods of time during the winter when there are fewer resources around like certain food types and also less light i e. Sunshine and vitamin D being converted from cholesterol in your skin. The body shuts down all sorts of functions, including your memory in some instances. So get
some short term sunlight exposure, especially during the winter months. Not to get a sunburn, of course, avoid that, but short periods of sunlight exposure with sunglasses on, if you're out in the you know the bright sun, bright daylight sun you'll help, it'll benefit you. Here's another one. Having sex can boost your memory your long term memory. Twenty fourteen study University of Maryland found the middle aged in this in the case of the animal studies,
middle aged animal products animal studies made more brain cells. In these animals that were exposed to sunlight more neurons after mating, and these neurons, of course, are located in a part of the brain called the hippocampus where long term memories are made, and this stimulation in adults, what is called neurogenesis or the development of neurons, is thought to restore cognitive function. However, after
sexual activity is stopped, the improvement in brain power was lost. There was even another study at McGill University in Montreal revealing that those who enjoyed the most frequent sex registered higher scores on memory tests. It's true. So there you have it. We've got more of these freaky, weird and sometimes hard to explain ways to improve your memory, and we'll get to the rest of them
and your phone calls after this. I'm doctor Bob Martin. The number one health concern as we moved 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 in blocks light from entering, which interferes with sharp, clear vision. A science based cataract reversal eye drop
called CANC is changing lives of people with poor vision caused by cataract.

We wouldn't go a day without washing our hands, brushing our teeth, and washing our nose. Wa wait, we wash our nose.
Yes. The number one place where bacteria, viruses, and pollen enter your body is through the nose. So the average person breaths over twenty three thousand times a day. That's twenty three thousand opportunities for bacteria, viruses, and irritants to get into your nose and make you sick. For an extra layer of protection, wash your nose with Clear. That is Clear x l e R. Clear's drug free nasal spray features zylatol, an ingredient proven to

You well, hopefully natural medicine whenever the potential or whenever possible. Welcome or welcome back to this hour, Ladies and gentlemen of the Doctor Bob Marchin Show.
We thank you for tuning into the program and telling others about it that you know that could stand to learn about their health, could benefit by doing things better for their their own health. We're here each and every week, same time, same place, and my personal website is an extension of this radio show where you can access news from around the globe all week long that
you may not find anywhere else. In fact, we have a health poll question going right now on my website that I would dearly love to get your opinion of. And it's based on the fact that the Food and Drug Administration they are looking at authorizing over the counter birth control pills by the summer.
So here's the question I posed to you. Do you believe it's a good idea to have birth control pills available over the counter, just like walking into any drug store or convenience store and purchasing a bottle of aspirin or stuff for gas or bloating or whatever. Just having these birth control pills which modulate artificially the hormone system of the person who is swallowing them, just taking them without a doctor's prescription and without any monitoring. Do you think that's a good idea?
Yes or no? Please vote on that atob dot com spelling out the word doctor dctrbob dot com. Now, for those of you who are on hold, be patient. I will get to your call and stand by for that. I wanted to finish this information about how to improve memory with some of the weirdest, scientifically proven methods that you likely have not heard of. We've gone through three of them. Here's the next one. And this may sound really strange to some of you. You can actually improve your memory by
walking backwards. It's true. I have proven it in my own practice with patients who have had trouble with memory. Now, be careful because when you walk backwards, you may stumble, or you may trip on something and fall, So be careful doing this. I would be on grass if I were you, or a sender track or something that's a little bit less harmful if
you do fall backwards. Walking backwards strange. Study twenty eighteen found that people who walk backwards performed better in memory tests than those who stand still or walk forward. University of Roehampton asked one hundred and fourteen volunteers to watch a video and then answer questions a questionnaire about what they could recall, and after watching
the video, participants were split into two different groups. One was told to walk backwards, one was told to walk forward for thirty feet while the control groups stood in place. And sure enough, it was found that those people who walked backwards the walking group that went backwards walked backwards got two more question answers correct on average than the forward walkers and the non walkers. The team deemed that this is an indication that there's a link between the concept of time
and space. It's essential to the way our minds form memories. So as you use your brain in a different way i e. Walking backwards, suddenly the brain starts working better. So get to it. If you're having memory problems. Here's another one, number five eating celery. I mean, how hard would that be to eat more celery to improve your memory? And where are you going to learn about these things aside from here on the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Well maybe nowhere. But I'm glad you're here. I'm glad
you remember to tune in. I know the taste of celery is not, you know, what a lot of people like, and some people never acquire the taste of celery, But eating it may be worth it, as scientists have found it contains a memory boosting compound. The team from the University of Illinois studied the effects of lutiolan Lutiolan, which is also in peppers, and
they found it worked on the and the behavior in animal natial model. They fed them these substances salary in these peppers and this ludiolan to a control group or supplemented their diet for four weeks, and then they looked at their learning and memory task and it was found that the mice who consumed the ludiolan supplement, which you can get it from salary and get it from peppers, those who took this ludiolan supplement in their diet performed better in memory and cognition tests
than their peers. Here's another one. Mozart classical music has been found to have numerous health benefits, including lowering your blood pressure, helping you to de fight infections, and yes, to improve your brain and your memory. So after listening to Mozart, the PARTICU has been showed an increase in brainwave activity linked to memory, understanding and problems solving. How interesting is that. But
when they listened to Beethoven, not so much. Not so much. Sorry about that, Beethoven lovers, it's Mozart when it comes to the effects on your mind and your memory. Can't tell you why, but that's just the way it went down this time. So hopefully you got something out of that and hopefully you'll remember what I said. That would be nice. All right, let's see if we can squeeze Becky. And here Becky is calling in from the state of Kansas. You're on the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Becky.
How can I help you? Yes, I have a question. My brother was diagnosed with macular degenerations several I think it was a couple of years ago. My sister in law stud and he recently had we thought a detached retina as of yesterday, and they were going to send him by amulance to get some help and im to find out he didn't have he had macular degeneration. It was the vessels behind the eye, yes, causing his problems. So what can I recommend that maybe I could get or to help him in
some way because he's got spots. I found out that he was watching Okay, the doctor wasn't touching in the other eye, and he's already lost the vision and his eye is completely gone one of them. All right, Well, first of all, you need to stay under the care of the doctor for supervision. But the next thing you need to do is go to the
health food store and pick up something called saffron saffron. The saffron, just like the saffron herb saffron has been shown to help age related macular degeneration both wet and dry. Next, most people who have macular degeneration are as zinc deficient. They have severe zinc deficiency. And I've also seen studies where people with macular degeneration benefit by eating spinach because if it's a nutrient density, it's
a nutrient composition, so you have options. I would also give a call over to Wise Choice Medicine, the makers of Cancie drops, And the reason for that is even though the Cancie drops are for earmarked for cataracts, they've also helped anecdotally people with age related macular degeneration by putting this ncetal carnacy carnacine in the eye in the form of an eye drop. So I would call, or I would log onto their website because I don't have their phone number
readily available to me right now. Go to Wise Choice Medicine dot com. The website Wise Choice Medicine dot Com. All one word, and maybe there's a phone number on their website. Maybe you can call over there and just becky and explain to them what you just told me and get some recommendations. They may have a supplement. I think there is a supplement that you can specifically take four age related macular degeneration that they recommend along with their natural eye
drops that are non prescription. They're fantastic and I've had people who have had cataracts who also had macular degeneration benefit by these eye drops there. It's an amino acid that goes into the eye that helps the eye to get healthy again without any adverse side effects. Non prescription, Wise Choice Medicine dot Com.

Let's get back to work with your phone calls and your questions. Next up, we say hello to Claire, who's calling in from the state of California. Welcome to the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Claire. Hello, thank you. When COVID hit, we started taking original and my question is should we make this a permanent daily supplement. Okay, that's a good question. I wish more people would ask this question. When you are challenged and you
know that you're around microbes or bugs or viruses. Let's say you're getting on an airplane. Oh my gosh, have your oreganol with you. Take it before, during, and after. If you are around the grandkids and you know they're sneezing and wheezing and coffin and spitting and things are going into the air, pump up the volume on taking the oreganol oil. And you can take it in capsule form tube with the oil in the mouth under the tongue.
And some people don't like it, but it's very strong medicine. You'll get over it, you'll get used to it. But then on a maintenance level, if you want, Claire, just to keep some in your system, one drop a day, maybe for maybe five out of seven days, is a good idea because we're bombarded with thousands and thousands of organisms that we come in contact with, viruses, mold, yeast, you name it. And having this herb in your system which is medicinal and it's an antiseptic,
it is mic recital, viruscital. It has all these properties that the germs that come in your direction hate because it's a very hot herb. They cannot stand the heat. Viruses and bacteria and mold and yeast, and a regano does that. So if you take let's say, on a maintenance level, one drop in your mouth, let's say at the end of the day or the beginning of the day, five days a week, and then skip it
for a couple of days, no problem. But when you know you're under siege, when you know that you've been exposed, or you're in an area where there's a bunch of sick people breathing on you, that's when you take maybe three or four drops, you triple or quadruple the dose and maybe even take it twice a day rather than once a day. And I think if you do this, you're going to be a whole lot better off, and you're gonna notice you're gonna get sick a lot less often. Does that help
you out, Claire? Thank you that answer my question. You're very welcome. Thank you for your call. All right, that opens up another line and that number into the program here to have your health related question answered is eight eight eight five five three seven two six two. We're taking questions on the topic of health, Your health or the health of somebody else that you care to call in on. Behalf of that's okay with me, or maybe

All right, doctor Bob Martin back with you. Thank you so very much for tuning into the program. Today, Ladies and gentlemen, we are in the middle of an open line conversation on the topic of health, and you are invited to join in that conversation. Should you have a health related challenge, a health problem, some type of a dilemma associated with your health, and you call in and ask that question, I'll do my very best to try to help you out. That's what this show is dedicated to.
It's what it's about, it's why it's been on the air for forty years. In some fashion, we're in our twenty seventh year of nationwide syndication, but I was doing talks shows locally in the states of Colorado and Arizona way before we even got into national syndication. There's such a pent up demand for this type of information and knowledge. The cost of healthcare today is soaring.
Doctors are overburdened. They don't have enough time to spend with their patients in a six to eight minute to ten minute visit, and people are not getting their questions answered adequately or at all. And that's why this show helps to filling the gaps. So we're here for you, working hard for you, each and every weekend, same time, same place, and we so very much appreciate you telling other people about this radio show. So they too can
take advantage of it and benefit through and buy it. And the way you do that is you jot down the call letters of the station that you're listening to right now, the frequency on the diet, whether it's an AM or FM station, time of the day, and you pass it on to as many people as you can, be a good samaritan for both your loved ones,
your friends, your neighbors, your co workers. Send that information out on your social network, your Instagram, your Facebook, your you know, text, text message it to as many people as you can how to get to the program. And we so appreciate that. All right, let's get back to work with your questions and comments. Next up is Janice calling in from the state of Washington. Welcome to the Doctor Bob Martin Show. Janice, Hello, Hi doctor Bob. Yes, hello, how can I help
you? Well? I have severe balance problem and it's gotten so bad that I get, you know, down to dry jeeves, I move around. I had to go to the hospital. They told me that there's crystals in my ear and one evidently dropped down in the wrong place and affected me and that it would, you know, eventually disappear. How long has has been going on, Jennie about two and a half weeks. Two and a half
weeks and prior to that, was there anything that happened? Did you hit your head, were you involved in a car accident, did you fall? Was there anything? Did you have a cold, did you have some confection, anything that you can think of that may have set this into motion. Nothing. I'm very healthy. I'm eighty two years old. I take no medication, just supplements that you recommend. All right, well, let me tell you this. This can happen. These are crystals that can dislodge that
are in the inner ear. And there's a maneuver that I want you to try at home and maybe ask your doctor or nurse in your doctor's office to show you via some type of system, face time them and they can show you how to do what is called an Eppley maneuver. Epple maneuver. In fact, you can go online and just google it and that you can find out how to do it. And the basis of it is to help the little crystals, these little calcium crystals that build up and sometimes disclodge in your
in your ear, your inner ear area, the cochlea area. There's little hairs in there. They're very sensitive. And one of these little crystals gets dislodged in there, it can cause that problem. And you lie in your back. You go lie on a bed and you put your head just over the edge of the bed and you slowly turn your head back and forth. You rotate the head to the right and left. Not enough to cause further equilibrium problems even though you're gonna be lying down. But I don't want you
to vomit or get sick. But do it very slowly and try that. But you should get instructions on doing this epily maneuver to do it correctly. And the idea is that you're going to try to facilitate gravity and movement of that area to help improve it. Now, there's also a homeopathic remedy that's in the marketplace I would also try called vertifix vr ti fi x. Vertifix. Vertigo is short for vertigo in this case, ship it could be dizziness
or vertigo. They are different, but nonetheless the same area. The inner ear is often involved in this, and provided that this has nothing to do with your blood pressure or your blood sugar or your possibility of anemia with oxygenation I'm hoping that they've already screened at and this is an inner ear problem. Over time, this can be helped. Now, I also find great benefit of putting hot and cold up against the ear to dilate and constrict, and
dilate and constrict. That helps to increase the blood supply, flushes it and help. So you go with a moist hot water bottle up against the ear followed by an ice pack for maybe a couple of minutes, just enough to get the area, heat it up and then cooled down. And you'd do that over and over throughout the day and the night. You know, not waking or not sleeping two hours, but when you're awake maybe every hour or every two hours. That along with the eppily maneuver and some other things could
help you out appreciate your phone call. Genis I wish you well? I'm doctor Bob Martin.

I'm doctor Christian Conti. If you've ever tried to dictate a message on a smartphone, the odds are that you can identify with
the experience of having your phone miss hear what you say. And sure, it's likely that the technology just isn't quite up to pinpointing your exact words perfectly, but it's also very possible that you are not enunciating clearly, and the less you enunciate, the more chance there is for error, and if you think about it, the same kind of errors and translation can occur even in
our own minds. If we're not clear with the way we describe our experiences to ourselves, then our self talk can get muddled, and before you know it, things might seem bleaker than they actually are. So be mindful to enunciate clearly the kinds of words you use to describe your world. Speak clearly, even to yourself. For help with yourself talk, visit doctor Christiancanti dot

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 in blocks light from entering, which interferes with sharp, clear vision. A science based cataract reversal eye drop called CANC is changing lives of people with poor vision caused by cataract.

Breast cancer rates are rising. We know this. Each year in the United States, about two hundred and sixty four thousand cases of breast cancer diagnosed in men, and about twenty four hundred I'm sorry in women and about twenty four hundred in men. A leading health panel has recommended that the age at which women are regularly screened for breast cancer should be cut from age fifty down to age forty. The US Preventive Services Task Force said an extra twenty million women
in their forties would benefit from having mammograms every two years. Now, how is it? How is this recommendation for preventive health to have mammograms. That's a reactive test. That's after the fact. Getting a mammogram does not prevent breast cancer. Ladies and gentlemen. It's reactive, not proactive. In other words, do something about it after it's already broken, after the diagnosis.
That's crazy stuff. They call it preventive medicine. I guess how about providing better education about what to increase about you know, about how to decrease the risk of breast cancer in the first place, how to prevent it. Having a mamogram will not prevent breast cancer. In fact, it increases breast cancer risk because of the ionizing radiation. Be it as minor as it is,
it does do that. How about this novel idea? How about teaching people how to prevent breast cancer or any other form of cancer via a healthy lifestyle or modifying one's health lifestyle, for example, about reducing or eliminating alcohol that'll drop out breast cancer, yet they don't recommend it in this task force. How about reducing or eliminating high fat saturated diets, the SAD diet, the standard American diet. How about using healthy fats such as avocado, all of
coconut, and omega three in flax. Don't use tobacco. How about exercising regularly that drenk decreases breast cancer, but yet this task force doesn't recommend it. They're just saying, get more X rays ten years earlier. This is crazy stuff, but that's mainstream conventional medicine. They don't talk about helping people
to learn these things. Even getting adequate sunlight or eating seven to nine servings of organic venchles when possible, like cruciferous vegetables, will decrease a person's risk of getting breast cancer. But this crazy US Preventive Task Force Services task Force doesn't even mention it. All thereabout is taking more X rays which will increase the risk of breast cancer outright, but get it ten years earlier. It's amazing. We call this a healthcare system. We don't have a healthcare system
in the United States. We have a sickcare system predicated on fixing stuff when it's broken. Why do you think this radio show and others like it is so popular. This is what we need more of. You're tuned into The Doctor Bob Martin Show.
