Awesome, great video for raising awareness! It's a simple measure to protect you and your baby
Thankyou 😊
The initial video of the lady with the toothpaste highlights exactly why your videos are so important! People need to be educated and to adjust their lifestyle to help with many conditions including this!
@@user-gu5xn3el3x thankyou
Love this 🙌🏾
@@NebiyePropertiesUnderway thankyou☺️
💔
Really really important topic, especially amongst this cohort of patients. Men are known to bottle things up and this is especially so in the black community where there is a lot of stigma. There are also higher rates of suicide in men. Thanks for raising awareness!
@@user-gu5xn3el3x Glad you've found this video and topic useful
Very informative. How often should men get prostate cancer screenings after they turn 40/45?
@@camiller3235 there's no particular consensus. But in a patient with normal PSA levels and with no symptoms, they would usually be screened every 2 years
@@adumed thanks. Very helpful!
Informative video 👍🏽
Many patients probably won't associate AF and stroke risk so this video is really useful!
Have you ever wondered if you could survive with just one kidney? Don't damage your kidneys...💪😃
Such an important topic, the hpv vaccine is so vital as you have highlighted and having regular screening is the simplest way to pick up on early cancer which is treatable!!! Thank you
Thankyou!
Very informative.
Thankyou☺️
Isn’t it quite similar to randomised control trials (RCT) ?
Tonsillitis is so so common so this is a really useful video highlighting when antibiotics are needed. People automatically assume you need antibiotics but this breaks down the background behind when people may not be appropriate for antibiotics.
thanks for your insightful comment
Great video Dr Derek!!! 🎉
Thanks, glad you found this useful☺️
How would someone know the difference between tonsil stones and tonsillitis? I hope that this is not a silly question.
tonsillitis is an infection so you would usually get infective symptoms such as a fever. Tonsil stones won't usually cause a fever or someone to feel ill
@@adumed thanks for clarifying!
Such a great video, highlighting a really important topic. I really feel strongly that raising awareness of conditions such as this will help reduce delays in diagnosis and management. Well done
Thanks for your kind words
Thankyou for teaching people the symptoms of pancreatic cancer and when help is needed.
You're welcome. Always happy to provide information that people will find helpful. Let me know if any other suggestions or topics you think problem will find helpful to know more about ☺️
Thank you for directly going into content 😅✌️
Glad you found this useful
Informative 👍🏻
Thankyou
Great video, really breaks down the different causes of testicular pain.
Thankyou😊
Great video. ❤
Thankyou
Saw a news report about your videos, and checked this out to see for myself, so good to find a proper NHS doctor giving trustworthy advice and information. Thanks
Thanks so much for your kind words ☺️
Very interesting! This must be so scary if it happens to a person!
I never knew that it could arise from pregnancy. Super interesting. Can you explain more?
Awesome video, so so important to raise awareness 👌🏽
Thankyou☺️
Love this! Such an important issue thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏾
Brilliant video, so true
It’s only 15%.
Great insight and reassuring to know it’s generally preventable !
Glad you found this video useful
Great guidance, as always ❤
thankyou :)
Great video!! Thanks for the tips !
Glad you found it helpful ☺️
Very interesting! Lots of important info packed into a succinct video👌🏽
Thankyou☺️
So informative! And positive because most liver disease is preventable. Thanks AduMed!
Thankyou☺️
To answer your first question, yes! Thanks for this video!
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it☺️
This video hits the nail on the head in terms of highlighting important habits which people may not even realise are harming them!
Thanks, glad you found this useful
I honestly didn't realise most of these things. Thanks as usual for helping us be healthy Dr Derek!
Thanks for your kind words☺️
Once again, you deliver the facts in the best way possible! Love it!
Thanks for your kind words
Great video, thanks for clarifying a really misunderstood topic!
Thanks for your kind words
Excellent and informative video 👍🏽
Thanks for your kind words
What is Schistsomiasis Give me answer
Wow. This video was an eye opener. What are the risk factors for fatty liver disease and is there a way for early detection? I'd be interested in understanding this since most people have no symptoms. Great resource as usual AduMed!
Thanks so much for your comment. I'll be making a video to expand on your question in more detail. One of the main risk factors is obesity. Blood work such as your cholesterol could be an early marker of this risk factor
@@adumed thanks! This is helpful
While I don't doubt the story, the video's title is misleading. The issue is not with intermittent fasting per-se but instead how she broke her fast. Any extended fast needs to be broken with healthy foods, and for those to be taken gradually into the body to get it used to it. I've done extended fasts without ever experiencing any issues, so this isn't something that happens "if you take intermittent fasting too far" but rather "if you don't properly reintroduce foods" after a fast.
Do not trust this video. Recently doctors paid by The big pharma is suddenly saying ridiculous misinformation so that people don't do Intermittent Fasting. It's bad for their business. Watch Doctor Eric Bergs recent video. He exposed them
th-cam.com/video/QMsItnMlhuo/w-d-xo.html
Great way to highlight refeeding syndrome, especially in this time when people are doing all types of fasting, some to the extreme!
Interesting. I didn't know overdoing intermittent fasting could be so dangerous!
I really feel it was the unthinking way the individual broke their fast which was probably most harmful
