TRANSCRIPT OF TODAY'S EPISODE
Announcer: You're listening to The Doctor Is In Podcast, brought to you by MartinClinic.com. During the episode, the doctors share a lot of information. As awesome as the info may be, it is not intended to diagnose, cure, treat, or prevent any disease. It's strictly for informational purposes.
Dr. Martin: Well, good morning everyone. How are you once again, welcome to another live this morning, and we appreciate you guys coming on with us. I got seven studies I wanted to talk about. I probably won't get to them all, but let's start Numero Uno, the one that I am starting with. Here's the headline. I might've posted this yesterday. You know what? I can't remember if I posted it on our private Facebook group. Nutrient Found in Beef and Dairy improves immune response to cancer. It's called TVEA fatty acid improve the ability of the immune cells to fight cancer. Isn't that good? Okay. And again, what's common out there? The animal kingdom not good for you. That's common. It's part of the narrative today. It's worse today than ever. And as meat and dairy consumption go down, cancer goes up, doesn't go down, and meat has got a bad wrap. Beef has got a bad wrap, and dairy has a bad wrap. And it's not right. It's not true, and I don't like it. And I've been consistent about it. And this study says nutrient found in beef and dairy, it's a fatty acid, helps your immune response in cancer.
So when they tell you that dairy is acidic and red meat to avoid, well, you avoid listening to that nonsense because that's what it is. It's nonsense. Don't ditch dairy. Switch it. Okay? Like I said, I'm not big on milk unless you have a cow in the backyard. Okay? Nutrient found in beef and dairy improves immune response to cancer and the ability of immune cells to fight cancer. Now, what food out there is very cancer promoting sugar. Okay, number two, muscle mass and strength training is anti-cancer. Another one on cancer. And now they're talking about your muscles. What a retirement fund.
These puppies get strong when you get stronger, when you get strong ger, okay? Muscles. The more we study muscles, what we know today at the end of 2023, what we know today in muscle and muscle biology compared to what I knew in the 1970s, it's incredible because muscles are storage bins. I talk about that all the time. Take an enormous amount of pressure off your liver to store glycogen. If you have muscles, you have bins, muscles and osteoporosis, 10 times better than taking calcium. Eat your calcium. Never take a calcium supplement, in my opinion. Okay? Eat your calcium because it's surrounded by vitamin K two when you eat eggs, meat, and cheese. Now, muscle, biologically, metabolically, they've shown in this study, okay? Muscle mass and strength training is anti-cancer. Headline. Why? It's because it increases your cytokines and aids in the production as they target your cancer cells aid in the production of cytokines and they target your cancer cells. That was the study muscle mass. And strength training is really part of your metabolism that we don't give enough credit to. And this is why at the Martin Clinic, we have been big proponents for a whole long time on getting strong because I went through the aerobic craze, running and jogging and go to the gym and you see people on the treadmill. I'm not saying that's not good for you, okay? I'm not saying that. What I am saying is, you know us at the clinic, good, better, best.
And so I'm not against aerobics, but what's more important is strength. You can be skinny as a rail and be very unhealthy muscles. The more they study that, the more they study these puppies, the more they realize that it has a major effect on insulin. Major effect on storing glycogen has a major effect. Now they're talking about cancer, and you and I have talked about this quite a bit. Mu is a retirement fund to prevent Alzheimer's. It's a vitamin sun, steak and steel. It's really important because it helps down the road to prevent Alzheimer's. And a lot of that has to do with insulin. A lot of that has to do when you lower insulin, you lower inflammation. It helps with your blood vessels. So even the small vessel Alzheimer's or dementia. So the more they study it, okay, let me just see. I think there was something else.
Okay, let's stick to Alzheimer's. Let's stick to Alzheimer's because there was a few out there for Alzheimer's. And this is one like therapy and Alzheimer's, a meta-analysis of 15 studies. Looked at light therapy in Alzheimer's patients. So the patient already was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. They gave them light therapy, bright light therapy, it helped them, hello, sun, is there any better bright light than sun? Okay, now winter is upon us, okay? And depending where you are on the globe, some see a lot less sun. But even if it's 40 below, even if it's 40 below and the sun's out, that's actually good for you. Now, not for vitamin D, but just the fact, the bright light of the sun. We talk about how it produces melatonin, okay? And there's certain lamps that like therapy, they've shown, okay, with Alzheimer's patients, they improve. Now, not going to cure it, but they improve. And two things they improve in, they're sleep improves. So in an Alzheimer's patient, their sleep improves. And psycho behavioral symptoms in patients with Alzheimer's improve.
So that's significant. This is a big problem today. Dementia, Alzheimer's being 50% of all cases of dementia. It ain't no fun. And I think one of the biggest fears that seniors have and their children is that Alzheimer's is major, major factor in senior citizens. Of course, we're worried about that. You know that about me. I am so cognizant of my brain, I want to protect it. Okay? So light therapy, is there a better light than the sun is there? 93 million miles away from us. But whoa, boy, you can't live without the sun plants and we can't. We need that sun. And they were using light therapy, bright light therapy. I got no problem with that.
They also mentioned good improvements without side effect. Now we know that the whole plaque based theory, 2022, summer of 2022, big summer when it came to mental health, Dr. McEwen and I have talked about this quite a bit. The whole plaque theory of Alzheimer's was thrown out the door in meta-analysis looking at all the studies. And they said, man, that theory is just, well, number one, it ain't true. And number two is that all the drugs that came down the pipe, this is a major story. In the summer of 2022, all the drugs that came down the pipe for Alzheimer's were a colossal failure. And you know why? Because they were looking for love in all the wrong places. It was the plaque theory. So they just said, look, let's try and get to medications. That's going to decrease plaque. They weren't talking about insulin, they weren't talking about circulation.
They weren't talking about inflammation. They weren't talking about mitochondria. The battery packs in the brain and it was a colossal failure. And once a patient gets Alzheimer's, I mean, then they go, well, let's do some light therapy. I'm not against that. Of course, all I'm saying is, isn't it better to prevent it? The number three killer in North America and number one in the United Kingdom kills more people than anything else in the United Kingdom. It is crazy. And we haven't even made a dent. We haven't made a dent that's gotten worse. It's one of the proofs that I tell you all the time, you know where medicine got hijacked by big pharma and big pharma does some wonderful things. Okay, please. Okay, I want to balance things out a bit. I'm picking on them a lot.
But there was no treatment for Alzheimer's other than medications that were coming down the pipes. The FDA even allowed them to come down, even though they couldn't show that they did anything. And yet colossal failure, it's still out there today, by the way. It's not like they've taken them off the market better to do muscle mass and strength training, not only for cancer, but for your brain. Better to do eggs, meat and cheese. Boy, you should see the stuff coming out on choline, okay? And the brain, I've always loved choline. An amino acid that's found in, somebody say it. Eggs, meat and cheese. Eggs, meat and cheese. You find choline. How can that, my friend, you should see the stuff coming out on choline. It's so good for the brain. Your chemistry in the brain, your synapses, your electric grid needs choline. And they say, well, you better limit your eggs because of cholesterol. And I'm the quack. You want to know what gives me a headache is when someone talks stupid like that. Well, I got cholesterol. Good, you'll do better. Okay? Oh, here's another one. Here's another study. Okay, flavonoids. Okay. This was a real, I really liked this study. And again, it was a meta-analysis study of flavonoid therapy. And they really queued in on a few flavonoid. What is a flavonoid?
Well, when I think flavonoid, I think coffee. Okay? Coffee is a powerful flavonoid, okay? And I think cetin powerful. Flavonoid, okay? I think kirkin powerful. Flavonoid coffee keratin kirkin number four. You know what is a powerful flavonoid pine bark. Powerful flavonoid pine bark extract of all extracts. It's my favorite. Okay? Now here's what the study said. Meta-analysis study. Okay? And again, try and find this in mainstream. I couldn't find it, but thank God for my service. That gives me all these studies. Okay? Now, flavonoids has a promising molecules in cancer therapy. Three reasons. They said, okay, in this meta-analysis study, they did a meta-analysis and said it's very promising in cancer therapy.
So what do you think of coffee? Keratin, carmin, pine bark. Listen to what it says. Three reasons. It works in cancer, according to the research they scavenge. Free radicals. What? Free radicals are oxidation. Guys, get a picture of yourself when you were a kid. Then get a picture of yourself when you're 20. Then get a picture of yourself when you're 50. And you can take a picture of me going to be 72. Okay? You don't look like you used to. I don't care how much Botox. I don't care. Okay? We're all aging, okay? Something faster than others. I agree that with that. Okay? But we are all aging. I look at pictures of myself when I graduated 1974. Holy smokes. I had a lot of hair back then. I can hardly recognize myself. I look at it, I go, that's me.
Not a wrinkle. Not anything. So what they say? Flavonoids are very, very antioxidation, meaning they are very anti-aging. That doesn't mean you ain't going to age. It means it slows the process down. And when someone gets cancer, think about it. Okay? Not in the first stage or whatever. Oxidation is out of control. Free radicals, their spinning out of you. Ever see a cancer patient? You ever seen a fourth stage cancer patient? Man, you don't have to be a rocket scientist. In my mind's eye, I can still see people that came to see me in the office in my practice days. Dr. Martin, someone said to come and see you. I said in my head, yikes, it's kind of late. You got death written all over again. That's oxidation my friend on steroids. Okay? Just that's what's happening inside the body. We're all aging. But that process takes over.
And what you get when you take a flavonoid, is it literally rust proofs your good cells. That's what these studies are showing. It rust proofs your healthy cells. So cancer cells can't come and destroy them. Okay? You go in a deep dive on this study. It's fascinating. You often get into the weeds, okay? Some of these studies, I'm telling you, it's just not meant for the public. I mean, the headline's hard, but you get into details on how free radicals work. And man, it gives you a headache. I'm a simple person. Give me simplicity. Oh, they rust proof yourself. Okay, I got that. I know what rust proofing is. You buy a vehicle and if you want to keep it for a long time, you rust proof it. Not a bad idea right now. So these are flavonoids and they inhibit. Okay? Two analysis, looking at all the studies done with flavonoids and cancers, but it inhibits cancer metastasis. While we all know what that is, it inhibits the spread of cancer. Guys, if you knew me back in the seventies, I talked about antioxidants.
Like vitamin C is an antioxidant. You're thinking coffee. It really is a much better vitamin C than the other one. But even vitamin C, like an eating an orange is an antioxidant. They rustproof your cells. And I talked to you, when was it yesterday or about IV therapy for vitamin C in cancer? Well, good luck. I think it's very, very promising. And I've counseled many a patient over the years, if you can get IV vitamin C therapy, like go for it, man. Go for it. So they scavenge free radicals. They inhibit cancer metastasis, and they induce autophagy, autophagy, autophagy. Okay? Dr. McEwen told me how to say it right? Hey, I get twisted tongues with big words. Autophagy, flavonoids, drink your coffee. Okay, Cetin, curcumin, pine bark, nal induce autophagy. Now, autophagy has gotten a big boost recently in the last few years. More and more people are talking about autophagy your body's self-cleaning oven.
You know me and the brain and your self-cleaning oven in the brain, right? It's got its own. Your brain has its own autophagy, okay? Call your glymphatic system. But what they're showing is flavonoids really induce autophagy. Isn't that wonderful? Isn't that a good reason to take them? I showed studies on coffee and people are mad at me. I actually get people. It's either because they don't like coffee or they think it's too simplistic. I don't know. Hey, don't shoot the messenger, but I've been telling you for 50 years that coffee's good, have I not? You bet your boots, okay.
Oh, and they got very specific, by the way. Okay? They got very specific. Here's the cancers that these promising molecules flavonoids. And one of the flavonoids, by the way, is proin what's in pine bark. But anyway, breast ladies, prostate men, and you know me at the Martin Clinic, I just got to tie things together. Women's breast cancer, men's prostate cancer. I've said it and I'll say it again. They're identical. They're identical twins. One in the female and the other in the male. And they're both out of control today. They're both getting worse today than ever before.
Now that makes me angry, makes me angry. And again, big pharma, they want to control the narrative and they hijack medicine. And I can guarantee you, if there ever was a pushback on flavonoids fighting cancer, man, oh man, you can't patent this stuff. Can't patent coffee. It won't be mainstream, in my opinion. I haven't seen it. Maybe you guys could show it to me. If you see it somewhere. Flavonoids as promising molecules. Breast, prostate, colon, ovarian and lung. Those are the cancers that they've done research on and promising. Promising. Hey, that's some good news, isn't it? Take care of yourself. Okay?
Okay, guys, by the way, off tomorrow, okay? Traveling tomorrow, okay. Tony, Jr and I we're traveling together. Should be fun. And back on Friday for question and answer Friday, okay? So get your questions in for Friday. Okay guys, we love you more than we'll talk to you soon.
