Insulin is a food hormone. Every time you eat, you need insulin. Its primary job is to take sugar out of your bloodstream. But the key is how much insulin you need. If you use too much, you can develop insulin resistance.

Dr. Martin looks at three new studies on insulin resistance. Researchers have discovered that apart from food, you can develop insulin resistance. A stressful environment, for example, can cause prolonged cortisol that can lead to insulin resistance.

Join Dr. Martin as he teaches on insulin resistance and shares the other ways insulin resistance can be caused.

Oxford University has come out with a study that’s saying seed oils really contribute to cognitive decline. Dr. Martin has been saying this for years, to avoid bad oils, and here’s more reason.

There are two things that will especially destroy your body. Sugar and bad oils. Every dentist in the world knows that sugar causes cavities. We’re told to brush regularly so that our teeth don’t rot. But what about our gut? Sugar rots teeth, but sugar will also rot your gut because you’re feeding the bears. You’re feeding an overgrowth of a third invasive army, fungus.

Join Dr. Martin to learn the ways that sugar destroys our bodies. We don’t need to consume sugar, and after this episode, hopefully you will agree!

The Center for Disease Control in the United States is reporting some terrifying statistics for 2023. It’s being reported that for every 36 births, one child will have autism. That’s the average for both boys and girls, but for boys alone, it’s 1 in 23!

Dr. Martin says it’s an epidemic! In the 60’s and 70’s, autism was unheard of. When something changes like this, Dr. Martin can’t help but ask why. Why is this happening? Why are autism numbers exploding like they are?

Join Dr. Martin as he explains why autism is leaky gut, and leaky gut means leaky brain. He gives 5 reasons why he believes autism continues to be on the rise.

A recent study is saying that 340,000 deaths in the United States and 480,000 deaths in Europe in the last year were preventable. The researchers have concluded that these people died of a lack of sun exposure!

The headline, Insufficient Sun Exposure Has Become a Real Health Problem, appeared in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. The study lists 4 reasons why people are not getting enough sun, and the number one reason is that they’re scared of the sun!

Join Dr. Martin as he unpacks this fascinating study and shares the 4 reasons why people aren’t getting enough sun.

Dr. Martin continues his series on fungus in today’s episode. The CDC announcement about deadly fungal infection spreading at an alarming rate made the mainstream media. Dr. Martin says he saw it at least 10 more times over the weekend.

Why are we seeing so many autoimmune diseases today? Dr. Martin says it’s because of fungus. Doctors are trained to look for bacteria and viruses. It seems they never got the memo on how dangerous yeast and candida can be! 

Join Dr. Martin as he teaches on the immune system and why it’s so important to build it up to protect against these deadly fungal infections.

The CDC in the United States is reporting that deadly fungal infections are growing at an alarming rate. The cause is iatrogenic, meaning it’s caused by medicine, and in this case they’re referring to the overuse of antibiotics.

Dr. Martin isn’t surprised at this news as he has often talked about yeast and candida. When you use an antibiotic, it wipes out both the good and bad bacteria in your gut. Dr. Martin will never tell a patient not to take an antibiotic, but just realize you need to follow up with a probiotic to restore the good guys in your microbiome.

Building muscle is the one of the most important things you can do metabolically, and it doesn’t matter how old you are, you got to get stronger! Muscle is key, and a new study has found the importance of muscle in preventing chronic disease.

Dr. Martin says with all the research coming together, muscle mass should be viewed as an important vital sign. The number one cause of disability in older adults is sarcopenia, which is muscle wasting.

Join Dr. Martin as he shares several studies on muscle strength, and even one on salt and its connection to insulin resistance.

An article Dr. Martin read in a medical journal says that they’re seeing big problems with underdevelopment of the jaw in kids today. Dr. Martin found the article quite fascinating because the reason is that kids are not eating enough meat.

The article went on to say that the underdevelopment of the jaw is one of the reasons they’re seeing so many sleep disorders and airway obstructions in kids.
