Glyphosate is a broad spectrum herbicide used in agricultural weed control. There have been lawsuits against the maker of the chemical because it ends up in our food.

An interesting study is showing how glyphosate doesn't end up in the actual meat of animal, but instead in what they produce. So, it may show up in the milk or eggs, but not the animal itself. Dr. Martin says this is a big win for the animal kingdom!

How do these toxins avoid getting in the flesh of the animal? It's their gut, the microbiome, that deals with the toxins. Dr. Martin explains further in today's episode!

Autoimmune is when the immune system turns on its healthy cells. In North America, 1 in 12 people will get autoimmune, and if you're a woman, it's 1 in 9. One thing that's consistent with autoimmune is that all forms of it start in the gut.

Join Dr. Martin as he teaches on autoimmune and the gut in today's episode. Every cell in your body has a barcode, and your immune system checks the barcode to see if the cell is friendly or not.

When it comes to your gut, you have trillions of bacteria that are part of your immune system. When the bacteria can't read the barcode of something, it flags it as a foreign invader. Without enough good bacteria, your immune system can turn on its healthy cells.

It's unbelievable how prevalent colorectal and colon cancer have become. The number of cases is causing havoc in our society today!

Dr. Martin talks about what is destroying our guts in today's episode. Another way to put it is, what makes your gut susceptible to cancer? Or what destroys your microbiome? Number one reason on the hit parade is crappy food… sugars and crappy carbohydrates!

Nothing will destroy your microbiome quicker than processed foods. What we eat has changed dramatically over the last 50 years and Dr. Martin explores how that's affecting our gut.

You probably never think of your thymus gland and likely don't know of its purpose. A new study came out showing that this small little insignificant gland actually has a purpose. The research showed that the thymus gland is actually like a university. It's a bootcamp for your white blood cells!

Join Dr. Martin in today's episode as he teaches about the thymus gland and the role it plays in how our body functions. In Dr. Martin's words, it's absolutely incredible!

Dr. Martin recently wrote an article that's just been published. He looks at food choices and asks if our choices are creating deficiencies.

In the article, Dr. Martin focuses on kidney health and talks about 4 things that are detrimental to your kidneys. The number one thing is a lack of water, H2O. Your kidneys are like Niagara Falls flowing all the time. You need to remain well hydrated if you want your kidneys to function properly!

Dr. Martin also focuses on sugar as something that's detrimental to your kidneys. Don't believe it? Ask a diabetic. Join us in today's episode to learn what the remaining items are.

Dr. Martin likes to share with listeners the news behind the news, the stories the mainstream media is unlikely to report on. Case in point this new study talking about the difference between plant and animal protein.

The study looked at the absorption of protein from plants versus that of chicken. What they found was that the body absorbed the protein from chicken better than the plant protein.

Protein is king. It's the king of the castle and when it comes to the nutrients we need. Why not choose the one your body absorbs better?

It's being reported that 45 to 60% of patients seen in the emergency room are deficient in potassium. This is a dangerous situation!

There are certain electrolytes that we all need. Potassium, magnesium, and sodium are all very important for our bodies. Dr. Martin looks at why so many people are deficient in electrolytes like potassium in today's episode.

He also explains how dehydration and a lack of water can affect your heart's electrical grid. The vast majority of people who have a heart attack is when their heart goes into afib.
