High Blood Pressure? Don’t Fall for the Salt Myth

Hey, It’s Dr. Martin (www.martinclinic.com) here…

Why does high blood pressure matter?

For one, if you have high blood pressure in your 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s — Your brain is at risk for Alzheimer’s and dementia. If you’re worried about the long-term health of your brain, then you should know -

In a study published in 2017: “Researchers followed nearly 16,000 adults, ages 44 to 66, for 24 years. They found that people with high blood pressure in midlife had nearly a 40% higher risk of dementia.”

But the BIG problem with high blood pressure is not what it will cause down the road the issue with high blood pressure is what it means for you RIGHT NOW.

Your body follows the law of CAUSE and EFFECT. Symptoms are an effect.
This means that high blood pressure is an effect.

And the key to proper healthcare is finding the CAUSE.

Let me say that again if you want to get healthier you can’t simply treat symptoms.
Because when you only treat symptoms it’s like turning up the radio when your car engine makes funny noises. Does turning up the radio solve the problem?

Of course not. Just because you can’t hear the engine making weird noises anymore doesn’t mean the problem has gone away. At some point you have to treat the cause.

Sadly, this is where doctors get high blood pressure wrong. Visit a doctor today for high blood pressure; he will want you to start taking drugs. Of course, the doctor won’t mention when you’ll stop taking the drugs.

(People don’t stop taking high blood pressure drugs because their doctor has said they’re cured. Instead, people stop taking the drugs because they’re sick and tired of all the side effects).

But does taking high blood pressure drugs fix the problem?

Well, a review of four randomized-controlled trials enrolling 8,912 people showed
“At a period of four to five years follow up, no differences were seen in mortality, CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS, CAD, or stroke. Approximately 9% more patients in the treatment arms withdrew to medication side effects”.

The study found no differences between those treated with high blood pressure medications compared to those who didn’t take the drugs and many high blood pressure drugs have side effects like dizziness, low energy, anxiety, headaches, and messed up bowels.

Why do you think high blood pressure drugs aren’t doing any better than doing nothing over 5 years? Because the underlying problem is still there. High blood pressure drugs do nothing to FIX the CAUSE. So....

What about cutting out salt?

EVERY doctor and CARDIOLOGIST will tell their patients to cut out salt to lower high blood pressure. So cutting out salt must work then, right? Well one of the most extensive meta-analyses done found that low salt diets helped lower systolic pressure by an average of....wait for it…4mmHg!

That’s it.

(Systolic pressure is the top number when you check your blood pressure. So…if your blood pressure was 160/90 and you cut out salt you might be able to lower your blood pressure to 156/90).

Imagine cutting out all the flavor in foods and then struggling with leg cramps and fatigue all so you can lower your high blood pressure 4mmHg.

I’d also argue that low-salt diets make the problem worse. A study done in 2011 found that low-salt diets INCREASE insulin resistance in healthy subjects. And low-salt diets increased insulin resistance in only 7 DAYS!

That’s not good, and it’s COUNTERPRODUCTIVE.

When you get more insulin resistant, you end up with HIGHER INSULIN which then leads to higher blood pressure and other heart issues.

Why doesn’t cutting out salt work?

Because high blood pressure is not a salt intake problem. High blood pressure is a METABOLIC PROBLEM causing salt retention. That’s why cutting out salt doesn’t work.

If you have high blood pressure it’s because you have a metabolic problem. And if you have a metabolic problem then you have an INSULIN problem.

So if you want to lower high blood pressure you have to fix insulin.

How To Naturally Lower Blood Pressure

The first step is to FIX insulin.

And the 3 best ways to lower insulin are:

1. Cut out crappy carbs, sugar, and vegetable oils.
2. Lift weights
3. Fasting

I can’t talk about high blood pressure without mentioning magnesium.

Magnesium plays a massive role in regulating blood pressure. it’s safe to say if your blood pressure is high you’re not getting enough magnesium.

Remember High Blood Pressure is a metabolic disorder.

Hygiene Habits That Can Do More Harm Than Good

Analysis by Dr. Joseph Mercola ? Fact Checked October 02, 2023

Based on a Reader’s Digest article citing a number of so-called “healthy” hygiene practices, I call out 10 popular personal care habits I consider to be harmful

There are many misconceptions about hygiene and you may be doing something you consider to be helpful — such as brushing your teeth immediately after a meal — when it, in fact, does more harm than good

Some examples of harmful hygiene routines are applying hand sanitizer, cleaning your ears with cotton swabs, douching and using fragrance-laced products on or near sensitive skin areas

Editor’s Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published April 28, 2018.

An article featured in Reader's Digest called out a number of so-called "healthy" hygiene practices that actually do more harm than good. Given the condensed nature of their commentary and the many misconceptions involved with these particular areas of
hygiene, I would like to elaborate on some of them.

You are probably aware that many commercial personal care products, such as bubble bath and hand sanitizer, are laced with harmful chemicals that can potentially damage your health.
But, what's your view on brushing your teeth right after a meal, cleaning your ears, douching or exfoliating? Are those widespread practices helping or hurting you?

I call out 10 popular personal care habits I consider to be harmful on your health. Below are 10 hygiene habits that do more harm than good.

Harmful Hygiene Habit No. 1: Applying Hand Sanitizer

If you are still under the impression hand sanitizer is as good or better for you than regular handwashing with soap and water, it's time to get educated. Many hand sanitizers contain rubbing alcohol as the active bactericidal ingredient, which may dry
your skin.

Even worse is an ingredient called triclosan, which has been shown to not only contribute to the development of bacterial resistance, but it also increases the amount of bisphenol-A (BPA) you absorb when handling thermal receipt paper or other BPAcontaining products.

BPA is an endocrine-disrupting chemical found in countless everyday products and it is associated with several negative health effects, including, according to Newsweek, "interfering with proper function of hormones like estrogen. Animal studies have linked it to a number of concerning health effects, including abnormal brain function and sexual development."

Research published in PLOS One about the interplay of BPA, hand sanitizers and thermal receipts calls out this serious health hazard. The study authors suggested:
"Not taken into account when considering thermal paper as a source of BPA exposure is that some commonly used hand sanitizers, as well as other skincare products, contain mixtures of dermal-penetration enhancing chemicals that can increase by up to 100-fold the dermal absorption of lipophilic compounds such as BPA. The elevated levels of BPA we observed due to holding thermal paper after using a product containing dermal-penetration enhancing chemicals have been related to an increased risk for a wide range of developmental abnormalities as
well as diseases in adults."

Although the U.S. Food and Drug Administration banned triclosan in December 2017, manufacturers were given a year to stop including it in over-the-counter antiseptic products, which means you still may find products containing triclosan well beyond
December 2018, especially if stores keep them on shelves until they're sold out.

Your best option for maintaining clean hands is to use a mild soap and water. As much as you can, avoid using antibacterial soap because it contributes to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. If you really must use hand sanitizer, you'd be better off making your own.

Harmful Habit No. 2: Brushing Your Teeth Right After a Meal
Daily teeth brushing is one of the basics of good hygiene. A thorough twice daily brushing using light to moderate pressure for about two minutes seems to be ideal. Brushing your teeth harder or longer than necessary may do more harm than good.
Unless you have a reason to brush midday, it's generally accepted that brushing once in the morning and again in the evening are sufficient.

It's best to wait about 30 to 60 minutes after eating. The reason experts recommend you wait at least 30 minutes is because brushing immediately after eating may weaken your tooth enamel. The pH level in your mouth at that time is lower and more acidic, which makes brushing more abrasive.

A 2004 study published in the journal Caries Research found that brushing your teeth too soon after eating or drinking, particularly when consuming acidic foods and drinks like soda, accelerates dentin erosion.

Dentin is the layer below your tooth enamel. The late Dr. Howard Gamble, former president of the Academy of General Dentistry, told The New York Times, "With brushing [right after meals], you could actually push the acid deeper into the enamel and the dentin."

Harmful Habit No. 3: Cleaning Out Your Ears With Cotton Swabs

Ear cleaning is another common hygiene habit that creates more potential harm than good. Putting cotton swabs, hair pins or other small objects into your ear canal is dangerous. Any attempt you make to swab out ear wax, shampoo or water is not worth
the possible damage that may occur, which may include cuts, eardrum perforation or hearing bone dislocation.

Because your body naturally will take care of waxy buildup in your ear canal, why risk the possibility of bleeding, dizziness, hearing loss, ringing in your ears or worse?

Glands in your ears produce earwax as a lubricant and protectant. It acts as a trapping agent to prevent dirt, dust and other debris from passing further into your ear canal.

You may not realize your earwax contains natural elements, including "long chain fatty acids — both saturated and unsaturated — alcohols, squalene and cholesterol." That
said, it's important to recognize your attempts to expel earwax have more potential for harm than the presence of earwax itself.

So, the next time you're tempted to stick something into your ear canal, take it easy and let nature run its course.

Harmful Hygiene Habit No. 4: Douching

Despite what you may read or see in advertisements, douching is not a healthy, recommended practice. Flushing your vagina with water or another cleansing agent only serves to disrupt your healthy bacteria balance, which may give bad bacteria the
advantage.

Despite evidence the practice is unnecessary and potentially harmful, according to theU.S. Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) office of women's health, about 1in 5 American women ages 15 to 44 douche. The HHS women's health team also states:

"Douching can change the necessary balance of vaginal flora (bacteria that live in the vagina) and natural acidity in a healthy vagina. A healthy vagina has [both] good and harmful bacteria. The balance of bacteria helps maintain an acidic environment. The acidic environment protects the vagina from infections or
irritation.

Douching can cause an overgrowth of harmful bacteria. This can lead to a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. If you already have a vaginal infection, douching can push the [infection-causing] bacteria up into the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries. This can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, a serious
health problem. Douching is also linked to other health problems."

Similarly, a 2002 study published in Epidemiologic Reviews highlighted the negative effects of douching. The study authors stated:
"The preponderance of evidence shows an association between douching and numerous adverse outcomes. Most women douche for hygienic reasons. It can be stated with present knowledge that routine douching is not necessary to maintain vaginal hygiene.

Again, the preponderance of evidence suggests that douching may be harmful. [We] believe that there is no reason to recommend that any woman douche and furthermore, that women should be discouraged from douching.

If you douche primarily to mask the scent of vaginal odors, rest assured that most smells are natural and are affected by many factors, including your diet and reproductive cycle. If you consistently notice an offensive odor or are experiencing unusual vaginal discharge, it's time to visit your gynecologist because you may have bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection.

Harmful Hygiene Habit No. 5: Exfoliating Too Frequently

Frequent use of exfoliating products not only can damage and dry out your skin, but also harm the environment. In the U.S., a ban on microbeads, which had been used widely in facial scrubs, body washes and even toothpaste, was signed into law in 2015.

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), manufacturers have until July 2019 to completely phase microbeads out of cosmetics.

These tiny beads, which are nothing more than tiny bits of plastic, pose a huge risk to the environment mainly because they are so small. Given their size, they can easily travel down your drain, through your local wastewater treatment plant and straight into waterways.

Because they resemble fish eggs, microbeads are eaten by various forms of marine life, including fish, plankton, seabirds and whales. If you're concerned about giving up microbeads, there are far safer, natural options that will leave your skin glowing without exposing it to dangerous parabens and other chemical contaminants.

Dry skin brushing, for instance, removes dead dry skin, improves the appearance of your skin, clears clogged pores and allows your skin to "breathe." You can also make a homemade exfoliant for your face and skin simply by combining a natural abrasive, such as salt, sugar or coffee grounds, with a carrier oil such as coconut oil. If you have normal or combination skin, you should exfoliate two to three times a week. Once a week is sufficient if you have sensitive skin.

Harmful Hygiene Habit No. 6: Lingering in a Long, Hot Shower

Besides being a drain on precious natural resources, taking a long, hot shower is extremely drying to your skin. If you shower with unfiltered water, you are inviting all manner of harmful chemicals into your skin pores, which open naturally in hot water.

A better strategy is to shower in water that is warm, not hot, and move through your cleansing routine in straightforward fashion. Standing for a long time in a hot shower will not only encourage dry skin, but you may also risk becoming overheated and
lightheaded. Fainting in a hot shower is an ugly business and could be potentially lifethreatening. So, when it comes to showers, I recommend you:

Install a shower or whole-house water filter
Turn down the heat
Wash your body with mild soap; shampoo as needed
Rinse
Get out

By avoiding long, hot showers, your skin will thank you, particularly during wintertime when dry skin is common.

By the way, if you suffer from dry skin, you can slather on
coconut oil after your shower to seal in moisture and eliminate dry, itchy flakes. You may want to take a shower before bedtime to help you relax and prepare to sleep.

Harmful Hygiene Habit No. 7: Moisturizing Too Much

Similar to allowing your skin to dry out, moisturizing it too often with over-the-counter skin care products can also do harm. The best way to promote and maintain radiant, healthy skin that is supple and moisturized is to:

Apply coconut oil to your skin as needed
Avoid processed foods and sugar
Drink more water
Eat fermented foods and organic vegetables
Maximize your omega-3 level

You may also want to try skin brushing. Not only does dry skin brushing get rid of dry skin flakes, it is a powerful detoxification tool as well — helping your body eliminate toxins and waste products via your lymph nodes.

Some of the purported benefits of dry skin brushing include:

Acts as a stress reliever Exfoliates your skin
Feels invigorating
Improves digestion and kidney function
Increases circulation
Reduces cellulite
Stimulates your lymphatic system

Harmful Habit No. 8: Coughing or Sneezing Into Your Hand

To stop the spread of bacteria and viruses from coughing and sneezing, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends you use a tissue to cover your mouth and nose, then discard the tissue and wash your hands.

A second option they suggest is to cough or sneeze into the crook of your elbow, taking care to avoid contact with your hands or lower arm.

If using your hands is your only option, be sure to avoid touching anything and wash your hands immediately after an outbreak of coughing or sneezing.

By the way, if you feel a sneeze on the way at an awkward time when it may be disruptive, there are a couple of tricks you can use to stop it without causing physical harm.

"Rubbing the nose, breathing forcefully through the nose and pressing on the upper lip below the nose may relieve the urge to sneeze, but once the sneeze starts, it is usually best to just let it go," says Dr. Alan Wild, pediatric otolaryngologist and assistant
professor in the department of otolaryngology - head and neck surgery, Saint Louis University School of Medicine.

Harmful Habit No. 9: Spritzing Fragrance Into Your Underwear

It seems obvious that spraying body spray, cologne or perfume directly onto your genitals would be unwise, but you should also take note that spraying your underwear is equally problematic.

Applying personal care products in such a sensitive area may
interfere with your body's natural pH, resulting in bacterial vaginosis, a rash, skin irritation, a urinary tract infection or yeast infection.

As you may imagine, the pain and smell associated with those conditions will undoubtedly be as, or more, unpleasant than the bodily odors you were trying to mask in the first place.

Your No. 1 method for ensuring the cleanliness of your genitals, as well as the rest of your body, is using mild soap and water. Beyond that, I suggest you make peace with your body's natural odors and bring any particularly offensive ones to your
doctor's attention.

If you are in the habit of using talcum powder, be advised it has been linked to lung damage and lung cancer, as well as ovarian cancer. Although all talcum products including baby, body and facial powders have been required by law to be asbestos-free
since the 1970s, I recommend you avoid using talcum powder due to the potential health risks.

Harmful Habit No. 10: Taking Bubble Baths or Using Bath Bombs

Similar to the hygiene habit of spraying scented products into your underwear, soaking in scented suds can irritate your skin and disrupt your body's pH.

If you are looking for a safe and healthy bath routine, you can simply add one-half cup of Epsom salt to your bath water.

Another option is to combine one-half cup of Epsom salt with a few drops of one or more calming essential oils, such as chamomile, frankincense or lavender.

Whatever you do, never add essential oils directly to bathwater because the essential oils will sit on top of the water where they will make undiluted contact with your skin.

This potentially can cause a hot burning sensation and painful skin rash. To avoid skin irritation, it's always best to mix essential oils with Epsom salt or to use a carrier oil.

Rodale's Organic Life shares this recipe for a relaxation bath, which may help relieve stress while promoting a more restful sleep:

Relaxation Bath
Ingredients
5 drops lavender essential oil
4 drops German or Roman chamomile essential oil
3 drops frankincense essential oil

Procedure
1. Combine the essential oils with 1 tablespoon of a carrier oil, such as coconut
or jojoba oil
2. Add the mixture to your bathwater after you turn off the water
3. Use your hand to gently blend the mixture into the bathwater
4. Enter the bath and enjoy a time of soothing relaxation

Confused About What to Take for Neuropathy Relief?

If you go on line and search for “natural remedies or treatments for neuropathy”, you’ll find all sorts of different vitamins and herbs talked about. One says to take this, and another one says no, you take this, or maybe this and that.

Do you take everything? Is it confusing? Well, maybe there is a way to sort it out.

You have to first look at what the problem really is. No matter what the cause of the neuropathy, neuropathy is nerve damage. The nerve has been damaged and the body needs to build healthy nerves. They body will do that, if fixes cuts all the time. But why doesn’t it just restore health to the nerves so the nerves are not giving you those stabbing pains, or the burning, or the tingling?

In actuality, the body does build healthy nerves, if it didn’t do this whenever you cut your finger, you would get a numb spot because the nerve wouldn’t be working.

Then why does neuropathy develop to a point where the body doesn’t get better and in some cases continues to get worse.

If you damage a nerve when you cut your finger, the body uses specific nutrients (vitamins) to build a healthy nerve. However, it can only use the vitamins that are available.

If there is significant damage to the nerves – such as damage caused by continuous high blood sugar in diabetes, a major trauma from a car wreck, damage from bacteria or viral infections, etc., your body may not have sufficient amounts of the nutrients to build healthy nerves.

You may not be getting sufficient vitamins from the food you eat. And the vitamins needed (mostly B vitamins) can get used up by other environmental factors, such as riding the body of toxins from foods and the air we breathe, drinking beverages with caffeine, smoking, physical and mental stress and many other things that use up B vitamins.

In fact, sometimes when the doctor says that the neuropathy is from unknown causes, it could be from a number of the factors that can create nerve damage, which means the body is fighting a big battle and needs a lot more vitamins then are usually available.

What is actually needed? *

The B vitamins – B1 and B12 are vital to fixing the nerves. B9 (folate) is needed to activate the B12. You need D3. You also need B2 and B6 in small quantities.

Now you also have to understand that B vitamins are usually water soluble. This means that they wash out of the body rather quickly. And you have to remember that the body is in need of these vitamins in its quest to build healthy nerves. It’s having a hard time getting enough.

There are, however, forms of these B vitamins that are fat soluble and thus when the body breaks it down, the B vitamins are delivered into the blood stream (don’t let the fat soluble fool you, it won’t store in the body, it breaks down) and in the process, the cells get the much needed B vitamins. There are also forms of B vitamins that are much more easily assimilated by the body

No, the body doesn’t need herbs, or other fatty acids etc. to address neuropathy and build healthy nerves. It might bring temporary relief but you have to keep taking it. It needs its normal building blocks – vitamins – to build healthy nerves.

How the Gut-Brain Axis Can Affect Your Health

Medical science has recently discovered that a root cause of particular health issues involves the gut and the Gut Brain Axis.

The Gut-Brain Axis is the communication system between the brain and the trillions of bacteria and enzymes living within our intestines – our gut microbiome.

The gut microbiome weighs about 2 kg and is bigger than the average human brain. It’s an active community of trillions of bacteria and microbes.

The gut microbiome is a crucial part of this gut-brain connection. It develops simultaneously with the central nervous system and has a powerful influence over many different mental processes.

Multiple studies have shown that the composition of our gut bacteria has a profound impact on mental health and the functioning of our nervous system.

Gut microbes make a number of chemicals that affect how our brains function. Gut microbes play a crucial role in brain development and the flow of signaling information across the central nervous system.

As neurotransmitters synthesized by the brain are involved in regulating mental health, emotions, behaviors, and mood, a disrupted gut microbiome can play a significant role in neurological conditions.

“The gut microbiome is the most important scientific discovery for human healthcare in recent decades,” says James Kinross, a microbiome scientist and surgeon at Imperial College London. “We discovered it – or rediscovered it – in the age of genetic sequencing less than 15 years ago. The only organ that is bigger is the liver.”

Professor Jack Gilbert, an award-winning microbiome scientist at the University of California San Diego and author, has stated, “Over the last 80 years and since the dawn of antibiotics, there has been a multi-generational loss of microbes that appear to be important for human health. They are passed from mother to child (during birth, via breast milk and skin contact) throughout the generations, but at some point, in the last three or four generations, we lost some. We’re not entirely sure if the cause was our lifestyle, our diet, cleanliness in our homes or the use of antibiotics. We’re missing certain immune stimulants that people in the developing world have plenty of.”

The gut’s microbiome is critical for short-term and long-term health. Given all the new data about the importance of the gut microbiome and the gut-brain axis, there are steps you can take to ensure you maintain a healthy gut microbiome.

Studies suggest having a diverse population of gut microbes is directly associated with better health.

The Canadian Digestive Health Foundation suggests the following food should be eaten

“Make sure to eat your vegetables!

“Especially the leafy green ones. Vegetables are loaded with fibers which cannot be digested by people but are consumed by the good bacteria in your gut. It has been observed that people who follow a diet rich with fruits and vegetables are less likely to grow disease-causing bacteria. Some great examples of vegetables that feed your microbes are:

Leeks
Onions
Asparagus
Broccoli
Spinach.

Stock up on dietary sources of prebiotics

“Prebiotics are food for your microbiome! It’s important to feed these little guys to give them the energy they need to complete their very important task of managing your enteric (relating to the intestines) nervous system.

Here is a list of dietary prebiotics that should be staples in your home kitchen:

Apples
Leeks
Onions
Cocoa Extracts
Garlic
Bananas
Asparagus
Nuts
Seeds
Red Wine Extracts
Root Vegetables
Beans
Lentils
Chickpeas
Green Tea Extracts.

“Fermented foods are gut-friendly.”

“Fermented foods are another great source of probiotics. The crowd favorite is yogurt, however, if you’re going to be eating a lot of yogurt, make sure that it is sugar-free! There are several other options that are a great source of good bacteria. Kombucha is becoming a very popular source of probiotics. You can also eat things like pickles, kimchee, and kefir to ensure that you’re getting enough live cultures to keep your gut healthy and happy.”

Supplements Can Help, Too
