Dr. Martin has a love/hate relationship with aspirin! He loves it for acute conditions like if someone is having a stroke, but not for long-term use.
Aspirin was once recommended by doctors to reduce strokes as it's an anti-clotting medication. But over the last 20 years, it’s been discovered that the benefits of aspirin are far outweighed by the risk of taking aspirin.
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn why taking aspirin daily may cause more harm than good!
Dr. Martin looks at a recent exhaustive study showing a 60% reduction in cancer. The study says you’ll lower your risk of cancer if you’re taking high doses of vitamin D, omega-3, and doing strengthening exercises.
This trifecta is something Dr. Martin has been preaching for years. Join him in today’s episode and learn why this trio is so effective in promoting wellness!
Dr. Martin shares two studies that confirm something he’s been saying for a long time… that fibre is overrated!
The first study shows that insoluble fibre in particular feeds your bad bacteria, and that’s not good. The second study goes along with the first showing that fibre can actually help grow tumours. Again, not good!
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to understand why these studies are significant!
Dr. Martin looks at a Harvard study from 1997 that was swept under the rug. The study concluded that people with the highest triglycerides and the lowest HDL are 16 times more likely to die of heart disease!
Cardiologists are taught to look for total cholesterol and LDL and they don't look at triglycerides the way they should. Dr. Martin has been screaming about this study for decades and thinks it needs to be revived.
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode as he looks at this forgotten study!

A new study out of Sweden is saying that 40 cents of vitamin D saved the cost of hospitalization by 21 days! Researchers gave one group of participants 10,000 IUs daily, and the other 2000 IUs daily. Dr. Martin shares the results of the study in today’s episode.
Dr. Martin says if vitamin D was a pharmaceutical it would have won a Nobel prize, but because it’s a vitamin, there’s no money in it. If researchers would give it a chance they’d see how essential vitamin D is to every organ in our bodies!

The number one food allergy is milk and It’s estimated that close to 70% of the population has some form of lactose intolerance.
Dr. Martin looks at an observational study on acne and dairy. The study looked at people that had acne and stopped consuming dairy. Milk is not what it was in the 1970s and you shouldn’t be drinking it today.
Dr. Martin then discusses one of his favourite topics… cheese! He doesn’t want you drinking milk but wants you eating cheese. Learn why in today’s episode!
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are used for acid reflux and conditions such as GERD and Barrett's esophagus. Many people have trouble with their stomachs with acid coming up. It can be a very unpleasant condition and literally so painful at times, it mimics a heart attack.
A new study is showing that people who take PPIs are much more susceptible to diabetes. Join Dr. Martin as he breaks down the study and looks at insulin resistance as a possible cause.
Every now and then, Dr. Martin brings you a knock your socks off moment, and this is one of them. The American Heart Association is now linking non-alcoholic fatty liver to heart disease!
Dr. Martin says this is maybe the first time he’s seen the connection, at least in mainstream medicine. In the 70’s there was cirrhosis of the liver, but never non-alcoholic fatty liver. The study goes on to say that 1 in 4 people, including children, in North America have a fatty liver.
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to understand why the linking of fatty liver and heart disease is so significant!

A new study is saying that 90% of the population is walking around with sticky blood vessels. What does this mean? Dr. Martin teaches on insulin resistance, or high circulating insulin like we call it at the Martin Clinic.
In every chronic disease, cancer, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's, diabetes, autoimmune… the elephant in the room is food. The food we eat causes our pancreas to secrete insulin, and when we’re eating crappy carbs and sugars, this insulin never shuts off. When this happens we become insulin resistant and in most cases, you’re already a diabetic.
Learn how sticky blood vessels occur and why they’re dangerous to our health!
A new study is saying red meat will shorten your life. Of course Dr. Martin disagrees and he uses the “motorcycle gang theory” to explain why this claim is false.
When guys join a motorcycle gang, they generally die young. They tend to love red meat, 90% of them smoke, and nearly 100% of them drink hard. So, to say that red meat shortens your life and to exclude the other factors, makes the claim invalid. This is the motorcycle gang theory – to look at the obvious and not consider the other factors.
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn more about the importance of eating red meat!
When Dr. Martin talks about vitamin C, it’s usually about coffee, but in today’s episode he talks about the actual vitamin, ascorbic acid.
It was Linus Pauling who put vitamin C on the map. Before him, vitamins weren’t popular at all in North America. He actually won a Nobel Prize in medicine for his work on vitamin C.
Dr. Martin shares some points from a recent article he read on vitamin C and provides his thesis on the topic.

Oxalates are found in the vegetable kingdom and are little crystals that your body makes from food. The highest sources are found in spinach, almonds, and legumes.
Dr. Martin reviews a new study showing that oxalates can be bad news for some. The study is saying that dietary oxalates can be a factor in heart disease if you don't eat them with calcium. They can cause hardening of your arteries.
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn all about oxalates and why they can be bad news.
Dr. Martin reviews an interesting study on omega-3 and metabolic syndrome.
We have about a 30:1 ratio of omega-6 over omega-3s and the biggest reason for that are crappy carbohydrate vegetable oils. When you consume so many omega-6s, your body starts an inflammatory process. This is bad.
Join Dr. Martin in today’s episode to learn the benefit of increasing your omega-3 intake and decreasing your omega-6.
We’ve always been told that calories are important and to lose weight you need to eat less and move more. Dr. Martin has always fought this idea as they’re not taking into account insulin, estrogen, or a sluggish thyroid.
Dr. Martin wants you eating nutrient-dense foods. When you do this, calories are irrelevant because you need less food to feel full. An example is one slice of pizza that has the equivalent calories of eating 9 eggs. We usually eat more than 2 slices of pizza, so the caloric intake is like eating 2 dozen eggs!
Join Dr. Martin as he discusses calories and why we don’t count them on The Reset!

Learn why this is and the steps to take to fix leaky gut!
