Dr. Martin has continued sharing about brain health the last few episodes. Today he looks at what we can do to preserve our brains, and specifically the memory centre.

So, how do you protect your memories? Dr. Martin says you start in the kitchen. Start making better food choices that will get your insulin down. You really don’t want to overuse insulin and develop insulin resistance. Insulin is your friend until it’s not.

Probiotics are another thing you can do. Having proper levels of good bacteria will prevent leaky gut syndrome. When yeast crosses the blood brain barrier, then you’re in trouble. Dr. Martin explains why stopping leaky gut is another way to protect your memory!

Dr. Martin again looks at brain health, focusing on Alzheimer’s disease in today’s episode.

When it comes to Alzheimer’s research, it has long been believed that beta amyloid proteins are the cause of the disease. The article Dr. Martin shares looks at how research got hung up on beta amyloids. 

It turns out that autoimmune disorder is more likely the cause. Join Dr. Martin as he unpacks the study and shares how researchers “were looking for love in all the wrong places”.

 

Nov 24, 2022

Dr. Martin reviews several studies on brain health in today’s episode. One study is saying how cognitive decline can be the result of not enough protein in the diet. Understand that our brains are energy factories. They need proper fuel to function! 

The best protein for our brains is animal protein, but when you live on carbohydrates, you’re sure to shrink your brain. Our brains shrink over our lifetime, but if they shrink too much, it could result in Alzheimer’s or dementia.

Join Dr. Martin to learn why red meat is good for preventing cognitive decline!

 

Nov 23, 2022

Dr. Thomas Seyfried is a well known scholar in cancer research and professor of biology at Boston College. He recently wrote an article saying that cancer is not a genetic disease but instead a metabolic one. Dr. Martin agrees 100% with his statement!

For the last 50 years, cancer has been seen as mutation of cells and not as a disease of metabolic health. Dr. Seyfried says that once people understand that cancer is a metabolic disease, you will see a big reduction in death and improvement in quality of life and survival. 

Join Dr. Martin as he discusses this article that backs up what he’s been saying for years!

 

Nov 18, 2022

Dr. Martin shares an article he enjoyed about the almost instant benefits of ditching sugar. From losing weight, to reducing the risk of diabetes, and to lowering your blood pressure, these are just some of the instant benefits.

Since the 1990s, we’ve seen a 300% increase in fatty liver. You get a fatty liver from sugar and the worst is fructose. High fructose corn syrup came into existence in the early 80’s and the world was forever changed. We now see that 93% of the population has some form of metabolic syndrome!

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn the other instant benefits of ditching sugar. Dr. Martin also shares a bonus benefit that he thinks is important.

 

Nov 17, 2022

Dr. Martin loves coffee! If you’ve followed him for any length of time, you know this. He flagged two more studies about coffee over the weekend, and one of them has to do with fat cells.

There are two types of fat cells. White fat cells are the storing machines, whereas brown fat cells help to metabolize and burn off other fat cells. For both of these cells to function, they need blood. If you gain just one pound of fat, your body creates five extra miles of blood vessels to bring the nutrients to the fat!

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode as he looks at how coffee can help starve fat cells and help you to lose weight.

 

Nov 16, 2022

Nov 14, 2022

Join Dr. Martin on Vitamin D Day as he continues his discussion on how to prevent memory loss in today’s episode!

The study from last episode showed how 1 in 8 people over the age of 65 will get Alzheimer’s. It also showed how having low levels of vitamin D resulted in profound and rapid decline in cognitive function.

Dr. Martin says for your brain to operate properly, it needs vitamin D!

 

Nov 11, 2022

A new study out in the States is saying that 1 in 8 people over 65 will be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. This number is worse than we thought, but it’s not surprising considering Alzheimer’s is the number 3 cause of death in North America!

When it comes to Alzheimer’s, the brain shrinking is primarily due to metabolic syndrome. It starts with your food choices, and when you’re continually eating sugar and crappy carbs, your liver can’t keep up!

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode as he teaches on how to prevent memory loss.

 

Nov 10, 2022

Dr. Martin looks at a new study on vitamin D. This study is quite interesting because it looks at E-cadherin, an adhesion molecule that’s the glue that holds your cells together. Without proper levels of vitamin D and calcium, this molecule can malfunction.

Join us in today’s episode as Dr. Martin explains the significance of this new finding. Dr. Martin also looks at a study on vitamin D and depression.

 

Nov 9, 2022

Dr. Martin answers questions sent in by our listeners.

  • Loss of bowel movement control
  • Methylene blue
  • Purpose of appendix

Nov 8, 2022

Dr. Martin has talked before about why you shouldn’t eat at night. Two new studies have come out that are again saying not to eat at night. One about acid reflux and the other about anxiety and depression.

When it comes to digestion, limiting your eating time can have a huge benefit on your health. The same goes for depression. Those who didn’t eat at night were 16 to 26% less likely to get depression.

Join Dr. Martin to learn why not eating at night can improve your overall well-being!

 

Nov 7, 2022

In the last episode, Dr. Martin talked about the big food conglomerates that control nutrition. They influence what we eat in a major way! The same goes for medicine. It’s controlled by big pharmaceutical conglomerates.

In today’s episode, Dr. Martin looks at how big pharma has a major influence in the world of medicine. Doctors have essentially become firefighters, managing people’s symptoms, and not getting to the root cause.

Join Dr. Martin to learn how cardiologists got it wrong when it comes to cholesterol.

 

Nov 4, 2022

In a typical grocery store in North America, you’ll find around 33,000 products. That number may be surprising, but what’s more surprising is they’re all owned by 8 to 10 large conglomerates. Big food companies that own everything!

In the article Dr. Martin read, it was saying how these big companies also control what’s being taught to nutritionists and dieticians. What that means is what we’re being told to eat benefits their bottom line more than our health.

We’ve been indoctrinated in our thinking. In today’s episode, Dr. Martin challenges listeners to change their thinking. Things aren’t what they seem, and especially in today’s world!

 

Nov 3, 2022

October is breast cancer awareness month. Dr. Martin promised he would talk about breast health this month, and he didn’t forget.

An article caught Dr. Martin’s eye about probiotics and breast cancer. A study looked at women who had breast cancer that were taking probiotics. Their outcomes were better because the probiotic enhanced the effectiveness of the breast cancer drug tamoxifen.

Join Dr. Martin as he discusses breast health in today’s episode. He says we’re continuing to lose the war on cancer because they’re “looking for love in all the wrong places.” Learn why estrogen is the culprit when it comes to breast cancer.

 

Nov 2, 2022

Dr. Martin answers questions sent in by our listeners.

Some of today’s topics include:

  • Visceral fat levels
  • Eating carbs with protein
  • Phosphorus
  • Oxalates & the kidneys
  • Enzymes for digestion
  • How to heal gastritis
  • Antifungals
  • B12 deficiency
  • Pork rinds
  • Angioma

 

Nov 1, 2022

Don’t ignore skin tags! That’s the headline of a new study that says you’re 11 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome if you have a skin tag.

What are skin tags anyways? Dr. Martin says they’re a sign of hyperlipidemia or hyperemia, meaning you have high circulating cortisol. They’re an early warning sign of a bigger problem that should be taken seriously.

Metabolic syndrome comes from food and primarily from sugar and crappy carbohydrates. If you have skin tags, it’s time you look into the problem!

 

Oct 31, 2022

A recent article is saying that 70 million Americans now suffer from irritable bowel syndrome! For Canada, that translates to about 10 million people that have digestive problems.

Join Dr. Martin as he discusses the pain and discomfort that people with IBS experience on a daily basis. In order to fix the problem, you need to address the issues in both the stomach and intestines. Dr. Martin says it needs to be a top to bottom approach to be effective.

Join Dr. Martin as he shares how stopping leaky gut is the key in preventing IBS!

 

Oct 28, 2022

Dr. Martin looks at an interesting study that shows how people with sleep problems are likely to also have digestive problems. The study looks at the actual gut-brain connection that Dr. Martin has spoken of before.

There are several things that can happen when you don’t sleep properly. One of them is that your hormones get messed up. Your brain has a drainage system that only works when you sleep. Another thing is that you can develop digestive problems.

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn about sleep and its connection to the health of your gut!

 

Oct 27, 2022

The FDA has told cereal companies that they can no longer say their products are healthy. People have this idea that they’re making healthy choices when they eat cereal. This can’t be further from the truth and Dr. Martin says it’s a win for us!

Cereal companies in the United States and in Canada have a lot of money and influence. They have convinced the world that lower cholesterol is good for you, and big pharma is in lockstep with them. Creating a health problem and providing the remedy is big business!

Join Dr. Martin as he shares several headlines recently in the news.

 

Oct 26, 2022

Dr. Martin answers questions sent in by our listeners.

Oct 25, 2022

A recent study looked at 90,000 cancer-free participants to see what would happen when they started drinking their sugar. Dr. Martin has always said that drinking sugar is worse for you than eating it. The study actually found an increase in pancreatic cancer when the participants drank diet soda.

Cancer cells are like teenagers looking for sugar and study after study, including this one, are saying that cancer needs fuel and until it becomes a tumor it will thrive on sugar. Join Dr. Martin as he looks at orange juice and soda and what happens when you regularly drink it.

 

Oct 24, 2022

Often when we’re looking for a diagnosis, we present a series of symptoms and that can mean this, this or the other thing. This is what we call a differential diagnosis. You need to rule out the symptoms until you get to the right diagnosis.

A zinc deficiency is one of those conditions that presents a series of symptoms. Join Dr. Martin as he teaches about zinc and explains what causes its depletion. If you’re not getting enough zinc from your food, you need to be supplementing!

 

Oct 21, 2022

What happened to the flu season the last couple of years? It seemed to disappear, but Dr. Martin says in all reality, it didn’t disappear at all.

When the temperatures drop, and the days get shorter and shorter, people, and especially Canadians, experience a drop in vitamin D levels. People are covering up with more clothing and spending more time indoors. This is why we see an increase in cases of the flu.

Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn why increasing your intake of vitamin D is crucial in preparing for flu season!
