When we hear about melatonin, most of us think of it as helping us sleep better. That’s true, but did you know that melatonin is a very powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant? It helps your cells not to rust out so quickly.
Dr. Martin teaches about melatonin in today’s episode. We all have a small pea-sized gland at the base of our brains. This gland, the pineal gland, has been referred to as our ‘third eye.’ When light enters our eyes, the pineal gland is what makes melatonin. Melatonin is also made in complete darkness.
Listen to today’s episode to learn all about melatonin, and how it has a shelf life for some people.

A recent discovery of a specific protein called ROC has got Dr. Martin excited. This protein actually feeds the good bacteria of your microbiome.
Your microbiome is made up of trillions and trillions of bacteria on your body, and in your body, and most of it is found in your gut. In the last number of years, scientists have been studying the microbiome and bacteria and are seeing how it affects everything. They're finding out that Hippocrates was right 2,000 years ago when he said that all disease starts in the gut.
Dr. Martin also discusses how high fructose corn syrup is changing our microbiome. Learn more by listening to today’s episode!

Dr. Martin shares two fascinating studies in today’s episode. One of them is showing how the virus can hijack certain receptors in our cells to gain access to the body. People with high blood pressure, and those especially on medication, are more susceptible to getting the virus.
When you take blood pressure medication, your body creates more ACE2 receptors in order to lower your blood pressure. The problem with having more of those receptors is that it allows more opportunity for the virus to enter your body.
But there’s good news… the second study is showing how cholesterol shields your cells with a dome of protection. The higher your cholesterol, the more dome you have over your cells so they don't get hijacked by a virus or a bacteria.
Listen to today’s episode to learn another reason why you want your cholesterol to be high!
Did you know it was World Vitamin D Day on November 2nd? Of course Dr. Martin couldn’t pass up the chance to celebrate, what he calls, World VitDerma Day!
He brings you a shocking study from researchers at the Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. They have made a recommendation to their government and to other governments to change their opinion on vitamin D. They’re recommending that everyone should be taking vitamin D.
One of the things that surprised researchers was that the amount of vitamin D you had in your bloodstream was directly proportional to the outcome with the virus. That’s right, the more vitamin D you had in your system, the less likely you were seriously affected.
Did you know that 70% of the population has some form of sleep disorder? That statistic probably isn’t as surprising nowadays as it was 30 years ago.
