Dr. Martin has always been a big proponent of vitamin D. He sees it as something your body needs and an important biomarker of your overall health. Join Dr. Martin as he looks at two new studies on vitamin D!

 

Jan 2, 2023

A new study on seed oils has come out, and it’s bad news. It turns out that these bad oils can stay in your tissue for up to 6 years! Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode as he discusses the study and shares the 7 dirty oils you want to avoid.

Did you know that your liver is the key to your metabolic health? Dr. Martin says once you get that, the rest is easier to understand. This also applies to holiday eating.

Dr. Martin says you need to protect your liver. That’s the first thing you need to do, as in just 3 short weeks, you can develop a fatty liver. One of the culprits is high fructose corn syrup as it’s in everything. It’s much better to fill up on meats than on carbs. Dr. Martin also discusses intermittent fasting in today’s episode.

 

Dec 29, 2022

If you watched the World Cup finals in soccer (football everywhere else in the world), you may have heard of Leo Messi. He’s widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time and plays for Argentina.

It has been reported that he had 6,000 pounds of meat brought to the World Cup to fuel the energy needs of the Argentinian soccer team. These elite athletes perform at another level and it’s protein that fuels their performance.

Join Dr. Martin as he relates what we eat doesn’t correlate with what we need. If you don’t eat meat, you’re bound to be low in B12, and that’s problematic. Learn why in today’s episode.

 

Dec 28, 2022

Did you know that the first fast food was bread? In the late 1800’s they went from stone ground to porcelain rollers and this changed bread. Fast forward to today, and bread now has very little nutritional value. Bread used to be good for you, but not any longer.

The world has changed big-time in terms of food in the last number of decades. The biggest change happened 40 years ago when the great switch from sucralose to fructose was made. Sugar was switched out for high fructose corn syrup, and our health has declined ever since.

Join Dr. Martin to learn how the great switch has been detrimental to our health!

 

Dec 26, 2022

There’s a war going on against meat. Red meat in particular has become vilified in recent years. Do a search on red meat and cancer and you’ll see article after article saying that there’s a connection. Dr. Martin says it’s not true and explains why in today’s episode.

 

Dec 23, 2022

There is a war going on against vitamin D despite its many many documented benefits.

Dr. Martin looks at a new clinical study where 26,000 participants were given vitamin D and omega-3 over a 5 year period. The study looked at the impact on deaths caused by heart disease and cancer, the number 1 and 2 biggest killers in North America.

The participants came out winners! The results showed that when you take vitamin D and omega-3 together, you significantly reduce your risk of heart disease and cancer.

 

Dec 22, 2022

Brain fog is something that has become more prolific in the last few decades. Low mood, mild depression, apathy, mental sluggishness, problems with focus, difficulty remembering and processing information, these are all symptoms of having brain fog.

When Dr. Martin wrote his book about chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia in the late 90’s, one of the common symptoms of chronic fatigue was brain fog. This symptom was usually caused by adrenal gland exhaustion.

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to discuss the symptoms of brain fog. A sedentary lifestyle, chronic dehydration, poor diet, and lack of sleep can all lead to the condition.

 

Dec 21, 2022

Dr. Martin answers questions sent in by our listeners.

Some of today’s topics include:

  • Kids & dairy

  • Alpha-lipoic acid
  • Aspirin & vitamin D
  • Best time to work out

 

Dec 20, 2022

An important topic that Dr. Martin could talk about all day is the health of your thyroid. The thyroid is not a large organ at all, but it sure is an important one.

There are two nutrients that really support thyroid function. One is quite common, iodine, but the other, selenium is lesser known. Most people don’t know what selenium does or where to get it. 

Join Dr. Martin as he discusses the importance of selenium, the forgotten nutrient!

 

Dec 19, 2022

In 2021, $4.1 trillion dollars was spent on healthcare in the United States. Despite that, 93% of the population has some form of metabolic syndrome. That number went up 5% since 2016 when it was 88%. We’re spending more money than ever and it’s not producing results.

Dr. Martin says it’s because of the current health philosophy. Medicine is into treating disease and not preventing it. Their modus operandi is viruses, viruses, viruses. The goal is to eliminate viruses entirely instead of equipping people to live with them.

Join Dr. Martin as he discusses the recent Tufts University article, Five Components of Heart and Metabolic Health.

 

Dec 16, 2022

A study coming out of Japan has found a link between bad food choices and allergies. The university sponsored study had students with allergies clean up their diets by eliminating seed oils, fast foods and soft drinks. They instead consumed meat and fish, eggs and dairy and almost invariably saw their allergies go away.

Dr. Martin says he’s seen the same result with the Reset. People with terrible allergies saw them subside when they changed their diets. They started eating eggs, meat and cheese and eliminated inflammation causing foods.

Join Dr. Martin to look at the connection between bad food and allergies!

 

Dec 15, 2022

Dr. Martin previously wrote a book on the three kingdoms of food. The first is the animal kingdom, the second is the plant kingdom, and the third is man-made food.

The third kingdom of food is found in the middle aisles of your grocery store. It’s the prepared foods containing crappy carbs and bad oils and includes cereals and 99% of all breads. This kingdom of food isn't really natural at all!

Join Dr. Martin as he looks at the food kingdoms and shares the advantages of eating from the animal kingdom.

 

Dec 14, 2022

Dr. Martin answers questions sent in by our listeners.

  • Role of EPA in DHA
  • Vitamin D & blood thinners
  • A1C levels changing with age
  • Lipoprotein (a)
  • Prevention of shingles
  • Breast cancer & coffee
  • Activated charcoal
  • Berberine for blood sugar

 

Dec 13, 2022

The last two episodes, Dr. Martin has talked about heart disease and how treatment for it has been a colossal failure. Last episode he started talking about the do’s and don’ts for heart health. In today’s episode Dr. Martin shares more don’ts on how to protect your heart.

There’s no surprise that food plays a major role in heart health. What we choose to put in our mouth has a direct correlation on the health of our hearts. In particular, crappy carbohydrates, bad oils, and sugar can be damaging to your heart.

Join Dr. Martin to learn how continuing to eat bad foods is damaging your heart!

 

Dec 12, 2022

On average, 2,600 people die daily of a heart attack or stroke in the United States. We’re not winning the war on heart disease, and Dr. Martin says the big reason is that we’re looking for love in all the wrong places.

As mentioned in the last episode aspirin and statins haven’t made any dent in the prevention of heart attacks and strokes. If they did, these conditions would now almost be unheard of, but it’s in fact the opposite.

Join Dr. Martin as he shares the do’s and don’ts of heart health in today’s episode!

 

Dec 9, 2022

You may already know that the number one selling prescription medication of all time in terms of revenue is Lipitor. It’s a cholesterol lowering statin drug. But did you know what the all time highest over-the-counter medication is in terms of numbers? It’s aspirin.

Dr. Martin shares two new studies in today’s episode. These are gold standard review studies. They look at a wide sample of studies and analyze the data of those studies to come to a conclusion.

Join Dr. Martin to learn what the studies have concluded about aspirin and statins.

 

Dec 8, 2022

One of Dr. Martin’s heroes in life was his dad. When he got a diagnosis of diabetes in the late 1960’s, he almost immediately started doing something about it. He started jogging on the spot, and quickly turned that into a good healthy habit of running daily.

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode where he talks about habits that can change your life. The forming of good healthy habits. Diabetes is more prevalent than ever and most of us are at risk of having it if we don’t develop new habits now.

 

Dec 7, 2022

  • Mullein leaf extract

  • Sunflower lecithin
  • Fixing torn muscles

Dec 5, 2022

A surprising study out of the US is saying that 77% of adult males are obese. The article Dr. Martin read says those men would not qualify for the US Military if they wanted to! 

The question we need to ask is why. Why are so many men classified as obese? Dr. Martin says that the food pyramid is upside down. We have enough history to show that we’ve been part of a failed experiment for well over 50 years. The experiment failed and we're sicker and fatter than ever!

Join Dr. Martin as he talks about why obesity has become such a problem in our world.

 

Dec 2, 2022

Depression and food go together. That’s what a new study linking depression with insulin is saying. When you have insulin resistance, your risk of depression doubles!

Dr. Martin says the link is incredibly significant and another reason why you want to fix insulin resistance. We can’t control everything in our lives, but we can control the types of food we put in our mouths.

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode as he discusses the study and also answers a couple of questions on B12 that he missed yesterday.

 

Dec 1, 2022

B12 deficiency is much more prevalent today than it used to be. Back in the 50s and early 60s doctors used to give B12 shots all the time. Today, you almost need to be dead before they give you B12! There is a reason for it, and Dr. Martin calls it the hijacking of labs.

Modern medicine relies on blood tests and established thresholds to determine a course of action. When it comes to B12 their limits are too low, so doctors rarely if ever give a shot. Even if people are low in B12, their lab results say they’re within a normal range.

Dr. Martin has said for years that you need optimized levels of B12 to function properly. In today’s episode he talks about why people are deficient in B12 and the symptoms you should watch out for.

 

Nov 30, 2022

Dr. Martin answers questions sent in by our listeners.

Some of today’s topics include:

  • Saturated fats

  • Metallic taste in mouth
  • Concussion & seizures
  • The brain’s self-cleaning oven
  • Cataracts

 

Nov 29, 2022

A headline from an Israeli study says that sperm counts are down 62% worldwide in the last 50 years! It’s not good news and Dr. Martin says it’s caused by a decrease in testosterone in men.

In Dr. Martin’s clinical experience, 90% of men over 40 have symptoms of low testosterone, and it gets worse. Most men over the age of 50 have higher estrogen and lower testosterone levels than their spouse!

Join Dr. Martin as he reviews this study and shares what men can do to increase their testosterone.
