You're actually wrong about kids getting hyper after they eat. Kids 100% get hyper after they eat. In schools we schedule things around this fact. If the kids go play outside then go eat then go back to class, you just wasted half the afternoon. You need to make them eat then send them to play outside before going back to class. I absolutely believe you that anatomically this makes no sense, but that just means there's another non-medical explanation, not that it doesn't happen

What is the criteria for us to ask you questions for you to answer? I have a few. PS I found our Cells at Work analysis very entertaining.

The sugar rush study I read had kids and parents in a room, and in one part the parents watched the kids play with toys and each other.
Then the kids were given sugary snacks, and the researchers noted that while the children didn't behave any differently, the PARENTS were the ones that started acting differently.
In expecting their children's behaviour to worsen, they started intervening in situations that previously they were okay with.
When interviewed the parents had to rate their children's behaviour before and after, and the researchers found that in almost all cases, the parents rated their children's behaviour as way worse on the sugar, even though objectively, the difference in the children's actual behaviour was negligible.
But sugar does generate a potent dopamine and serotonin response which can cause an euphoric or "hyper" effect, this is why its so addictive.
@@ViDeTool just going based off the study, don't disagree that sugar can be addictive.
The control group got a sugar pill
@@arshputz How to make your study fail HARD

As a former Walmart night manager, the fruit and vegetables are actually pretty decent. They are delivered daily and they do a good job of keeping refrigerated and room temperature produce separate.
Depends on the store. I bought a bag of onions from a Walmart, went to cut some up for dinner the next day and found half the bag was rotting. Won't shop there for produce again.
Might go there for produce. I saw oranges in a grocery store that were moldy. Like, to the point where I began to wonder if it was a health hazard
I just had surgery last week and had an allergic reaction to sugammadex. It’s the medicine that wakes you up from anesthesia. It’s very rare but my heart completely stopped and they had to give me cpr and 3 injections of adrenaline straight to the heart. It’s crazy that all I thought about was Dr. Mike yelling chest compressions 😂. That’s what got me through my days in icu.
sugma
Thank God you're alive and for an awesome, reactive medical staff that was able to resuscitate you!
What happens if you have to have surgery in the future?
As a doctor with severe allergies (anaphylaxis) myself, your point about allergies is so important and we need better awareness!! You can grow out of allergies but you can also develop them! For example, penicillins are one of our most effective antibiotic groups; if you’ve grown out of your allergy, it might be the best option! Love your vids Dr Mike 😊
Yup I’ve never had any sort of allergies, but recently I had to take amoxicillin for a tooth infection. I mostly just had a rash and hives for like 4 days or so after taking it. Weird it wasn’t during, but after. I’m not sure how you’re allergic after it should be out of your system? But yeah now I have that allergy apparently. I’ve only taken it once and was fine, but this is years later. 🤷🏻♀️
I hate allergies , got me almost half dead in Turkey , so I will never live in ghetto places , some people from central Asia Latino countries Arab counties can live there but a rich Chinese man can not
I developed a shrimp allergy when I was twelve and didn't realize it was an allergy, because all it did was make my throat scratchy. It wasn't until I was sixteen when I touched shrimp again and it made my throat swell up a good bit, but not enough to cut off airwayd, that I realized I had an allergy to it. It died down within an hour but I've stayed clear of it ever since, I don't want to test wether or not if I'm still allergic or not because there's that chance it could have developed into a more severe allergy then it was before
@@byuftbl My story exactly! And I still list amoxicillin as an allergy of mine.
I actually developed an amoxicillin allergy randomly. I used to tolerate it well, but the last time I needed it for a wisdom tooth infection I broke out in hives all over my body. Fun times.
About salt killing slugs:
Slugs and snails, like us, have a very high water content that they need to maintain to survive, but unlike us their skin is very porous, this is how they get their water. They don't drink water like other animals do, they absorb it from the environment (this is why they are often seen in large quantities in the morning when there is dew or after a rain shower). The trouble with absorbing water through your skin is that it goes both ways, and they can very easily lose water through their skin. When you cover them in salt, the salt draws the water out of their bodies via osmosis, causing the slug to die of dehydration. The reason humans can eat loads of salt, is because we're so much larger, and therefore have a much much larger amount of water to expend (we also have much more sophisticated methods of retaining water), but the same principle does apply to humans. If you eat too much salt, you may feel like your tongue, mouth and throat are dry even if you drink water - because they are filled with less water than they should be. And consuming large amount of salt can lead to comas and even death due to removing too much water from cells. It's just that the amount of salt that requires is huge, compared to the handful of salt being all it would take to kill a slug.
i dont know why i read all of this but thank u for the fact
Thank you for taking the time to share.
That.... Is.... Horrible... :O Why would you even pour salt on a slug? Who came up with the idea to begin with?! Wtf >.
@@TheOpacue Somebody who hates having slugs in his/her backyard.
@@granearl2438 throw them away then? Or stab them if you're to lazy? Don't torture them to death 😖
Dr. Mike: “you can even get this delicious apple juice delivered from Walmart!”
Dr. mike 30 seconds late: “just stay away from fruit juices”
he said that with totally different contexts
I worked at a Hello Fresh warehouse for about a year, and I was SHOCKED when I looked at their "plant based protein ground" and saw how many carbs were in it. Sure, there was a decent amount of protein, but that little 10 ounce block had something like 50 or 60 carbs in it. That's a lot of carbs to add to a meal that probably already contains carbs!
Just use your brain and don't add carbs to it. So just don't have bread or pasta or rice with it. Treat it like it includes those things already. It's not that hard, I do it all the time. Amazing. And my hemp, pea & brown rice protein powders have no carbs either. And neither does my tofu. Wow it's like I have an actual brain and can read the label and see how much carbs are in the things I'm putting in my body. Amazing.
@@Animal_lives_matter I'm not actually a vegetarian. I don't even really like most kinds of meat, so I wouldn't want substances that try to emulate the flavor and texture of it. My point was that Hello Fresh meals are very carb-heavy meals already, so the people ordering plant based protein from them are going to be eating a lot of carbs.
SLUG QUESTION ANSWERED: Water moves in order to dilute salts & slugs have incredibly porous bodies meaning water moves through their flesh very easily. By pouring salt on slugs you’re drawing so much water out of their bodies that they dehydrate and die. (salt has a similar effect on humans, just not to the same extent. It’s why we get thirsty after eating salty foods)
YES! Same Osmosis.
doesn't salt retain water? meaning we'd feel not less hydrated? not challenging you, just curious
@@abdulwakil2613 water moves towards salt, so it causes swelling, i don't think this equates to usable water. we then need more water to dilute the saltyness?
@@abdulwakil2613 Salt dissolves into water, technically slightly changing the composition of water to where it's utilized differently within the body, I feel there's a bit of a misconception that salt "hydrates" or "retains" water but realistically all salt does is give and help with regulating and balancing the bodies water content. Electrolytes after a workout come out through sweat, hence why having an electrolyte rich drink handy is a good thing while also having pure water. While the thirst we get from eating salty objects exists you'll more likely simply have "dry" mouth rather than become outright thirsty.
Save the slugs!
Major respect mentioning that sugar rush isn’t a thing, there was a study of parents and their “sugar rush prone” kids, they interviewed the parents and kids to get a baseline, gave the kids sugar, then interviewed again. The parents said “see how hyper they are? It’s out of control” but the kids were no different than when they were interviewed the first time
That is a hard study to do, because as soon as you put the children in a different environment you alter their behavior.
Are you really trying to make the case sugar rush doesn't exist?
I used to get told off for being hyper and constant teased and always blamed on a carton or juice or sweets no I just have adhd
Feingold. Food dyes.
As a teacher, I think a lot of it comes from the excitement of getting candy. When are we giving kids candy/sugar at school? Usually at a party or as a reward. They get excited and amped up about it, because it's something they really want and they're happy to get it.
Thank You Dr Mike for Keeping your videos so upbeat and positive.
Mike, I love your videos. I enjoy every single one I watch, and I feel that I’m taking in useful knowledge when I watch your videos. That being said I work at Walmart, and seeing the Walmart ads immediately reminds me of my next shift. This hurts me Mike, it truly does
the salt on a slug thing is because they become quickly dehydrated and the salt destabilizes the mucus covering their skin.
And when you relativize the amount of salt to their bodyweight and that your bodyweight, no human would survive ingesting 5Kg of salt
And it absorb moisture out of the slug. Human made of 70 percent water. Slug is that squishy must have more water content. Plus, I think they respire using basic resporation through skin and pressure gradient. Hence easier for the water to seeps out. It does the same as human, although it makes us thirsty and the urine will be really dark.
No hate but I can't believe he didnt know that. It was quite basic I think.
So thats why they use salt to get rid of leeches, eh?
@@ananthim7358 I mean a lot of people don’t know, so I wouldn’t say it’s basic. I would say basic is something most people learn in high school.
Dr. Mike is literally the best, he's interactive and educational as well as entertaining!
Yeah. How is he interactive though?
@@banehog I guess he asks the viewers for questions and answers them

Shortly after I got ‘19 I could smell it when the infection set in and then right around when my partner got it and started quarantining along side it I could smell it on him. It was horrible! I can also normally smell when I am getting a cold, or when I need more water due to how bad my sweat smells, as well as if I’ve eaten to much of certain things.
The advice to have probiotics is such good advice! I’m currently 4 months into a 7 month course of antibiotics, I hadn’t had a solid stool for weeks until I saw one of your videos. My doctor never mentioned them once despite knowing I have a hiatus hernia
People who shake their legs (while sitting) burn more calories. So my anxiety and ADD with the constant fidgeting is actually working out, ha!

To me, the point of the Impossible Burger shouldn’t be health. Sometimes vegetarians really miss the taste and feel of a good burger. That’s ultimately all it is; an approximation of that. I think the listing everything vegetarian as “healthy” does a disservice to the vegetarian lifestyle, mainly because it is difficult to make health food taste as good as unhealthy food.
Yeah burgers are unhealthy and so are vegan ones
Glad to hear this acknowledged. I am a vegan and I love beyond meat. For me it isn't a health motivated at all, rather I just love burgers and am happy to eat them without having to eat an animal. Move of the morality of eating animal product for myself, and perhaps for many other Vegans.
@@GriffinK10 depends what is used in the burger
From what I understand, Impossible is aiming at eventually being a meat substitute for meat eaters, because meat is so resource intensive and bad for the environment. I think the idea is to eventually be cheaper than meat.
The point is to kill fewer animals, which is good for the environment. And yes, great for vegetarians and vegans because we get to have a burger once in a while. The question about whether it’s healthier seems to be a question brought up by meat manufacturers to deflect from the horrors of animal slaughter and the damage meat production causes to the environment.
I love learning from Doctor Mike. His videos are so interesting.
I’m diabetic, so when he said whole grain foods help your bg not to spike as much I was so exited. And then I remember in cieliac too 😭
"There is a certain amount of potassium that's radioactive...
If you ate 40,000 bananas in 10 minutes, you would die of radioactive poisoning."
"Ah yes, the RADIATION would kill you!"
It is technically possible if you eat them like an ancient roman senator. Doing it in 10 minutes would still be hard though. A couple hours would definitely be doable though.
Is that a Russian badger reference I smell sydaschu?
This is just like the aspartame thing. "Aspartame is poisonous! It can cause cancer!"
Yeah. Sure. But the amount you would have to consume is so high that if you tried to kill yourself from aspartame poisoning or give yourself cancer by drinking diet soda, you'd die of water toxicity INFINITELY before you could ever die of aspartame poisoning.
@@joshnabours9102 40,000 Bananas in 10 minutes, that's 66.67 bananas per second, so I would say that's definitely not doable, nor in a couple of hours or even a day or two.
@@arnehenkler8391 technically it would work of you prepped them into smoothie form first. You might not have n esophageal lining afterwards though.
Edit: I just registered the "seconds" part of your comment.
That Gatorade part is so true and highlights the importance of speaking to a doctor. I used to only drink water during workouts and was having leg And chest pains. Doc suggested I drink Gatorade, helped me tremendously. I asked if that’s unhealthy, and she explained it like Dr. Mike.
Try water with a bit of salt in it. If you don't like the taste you can do a yoghurt-shake with salt and sugar.
The sugar and coloring in the Gatorade and other similar drinks takes away from the benefit of electrolytes. Make your own lemon/lime water or add some berries and a pinch of quality salt like Himalayan or sea salt.
Another great way to replace those electrolytes is to eat bananas or drink a coconut water-based sports drink. Potassium is just as good as sodium for replacing electrolytes
@@Nitrotix1 himalayan salt is anything but quality
Try Body Armor. Blows gatorade away in the taste and electrolyte department. And its about the same price. Little less calories per serving too. Less artificial colors and flavors.
Its my go to for a sports drink when i want some sugar calories (quick fuel) and electrolyte. Its good stuff.
If i just need electrolyte and don't need additional fuel - i use a product called endurolyte fizz by hammer nutrition - drop a tab in your water bottle and let it dissolve.
Makes a palatable sports drink that goes down easy and is high in electrolytes, low in calories, That stuff is a lifesaver.

As someone with a penicillin allergy, it can be extremely frustrating that doctors never believe I'm allergic. When my daughter was born via c-section, the anesthesiologist was dead set on using penicillin with my spinal. As I'm being rolled into the ER, he's telling me he really doubts I'll have a reaction since most people who think they're allergic really aren't, but if I do have a reaction, I'm in the best place to have one. About 5 minutes into the c-section, I start vomiting, my blood pressure bottoms out, and he's pushing fluids like crazy to try to keep it up. He pushed so much fluid that my heart started struggling, so now they've got a cardiac specialist in there who ended up having to monitor me for days. And I couldn't hold my newborn for hours afterwards because I was so out of it and felt like crawling out of my own skin. It was a truly awful experience and 100% avoidable. A couple of years later I had strep throat and even though I told the doc at that very appointment that I am allergic to penicillin, what drug do you think she called in to the pharmacy?? Very, very frustrating!
That's so awful... They especially shouldn't risk it when you're pregnant! And ruined your first moments with your newborn 😢
That's terrible. I had a similar SNAFU when I had surgery. The doc gave me amoxacillian and wondered why my mom called him pissed off because I was still vomiting and covered in hives 3 days later. She took a look at the bottle of antibiotics... 🙄
I would've talked to a lawyer about that anesthesiologist. Willfully ignoring your allergy sounds like good grounds for a malpractice suit.
its ultra annoying tryign to explain i have a MASSIVE tolerance to painkillers, even thugh rarely take them. i guess that helps me thugh if they try to OD me liek i hear they been doing
A lot of doctors need to learn to listen to and believe their patients. As for that anesthesiologist, if there are alternatives (which there were in your situation) why not err on the cautious side?
I remember watching an Abbey's Kitchen video recently that talked about how the "sugar rush" is a myth. Her theory was that since most households deem sugar as a treat, then kids get a rush afterwards because of the excitement of having it. If people didn't treat it as a restricted food, then that rush wouldn't necessarily happen.
yeah, I've seen it on scishow and maybe also healthcare triage. I think scishow also went into the psychology behind why the kids are "more hyper than usual"
Really suspicious about this still since I get a definite pep after eating something high carb low fat and or protein. Theres usually a small crash later too. I feel like people arent taking blood sugar changes into account.
That actually makes so much sense.
I wish the doctors I went to were as helpful and as knowledgeable as you. I rarely walk away from a doctors appointment feeling like I was listened to or helped in any kind of significant way.
Same
Thank you very much for your information. I have learned alot. Good job.

The point about gym gloves, thanks for addressing them! Truth be told even though I use grips when lifting I still get calluses. However they are still small and do not bother me. What's more important is I have naturally sweaty palms, and using grips really makes the lifting experience more tolerable as bars and handles don't slide in my palms.
"Can you smell diseases from sweat"
Mythbusters actually had a thing about smelling fear [though I still see that as describing monsters with presumably better senses in movies, not human people]. A nose specialist came in, and pretty accurately guessed which samples of sweat were of fear. So apparently you can detect a few things, it's just not reliable unless you're always smelling those things.
Men also have the ability to subconsciously know when a woman is ovulating based on sweat smell from places such as the armpit
@@hughdarilek8189 are you a man?

One of my favorite lines "Statistics mean nothing to the individual" - Dr. Cox (Scrubs)
Very true. Powerful studies may show that 90% of people have outcome A and 10% of people have outcome B, but is the patient sitting in front of you in the 90% or the 10%? Who knows.
Slugs have a mucous membrane. When you pour salt of them, the water wants to go the the place with a higher salt (osmosis) and the it quickly dehydrated the slug and it dies.

You have inspired me to become a doctor, thank you so much.
Cat allergies: I know tons of people who were allergic to cats and grew out of it, but ONLY because they started living with cats. It's exposure therapy, just like allergy shots (shocked he didn't mention this.) My favourite example is that an old roommate's girlfriend used to come over and avoid my cats like the plague. She eventually moved in with us, her allergies went away, and after moving out she got 3 cats of her own!
My mom’s allergic to cats and we’ve had quite a few of them over the years, and after a bit, she gets used to them
I think there are different levels of allergy; and for instance there is a theory that the dreaded peanut butter allergy is much less prevalent here in Asia because expectant Mothers often eat foods cooked in peanut oil. But it would be wrong of Dr Mike to mention something that could (potentially) cause very real harm.
Everyone's allergies are different though, which is probably why he didn't say that! I too have an allergy to cats, never gotten over it :D
I have a dog and I'm allergic to my dog. I've lived with her for 8 years or so, and I am still allergic to dogs. So, yeah, I'm envious of all the people that grew out of their pet allergies 😅
@@clarissagafoor5222 yeah, I think this might be the reason. Like... It's great if **someone** benefits from exposure therapy, but if somebody else suffocates due to it then it was by far not worth it. The point is that it can change and if you're interested seek professional help personalized to you - imo

A taste for sugar and sweet things in general changing with aging IS a real thing. Everybody I know is MORE sensitive to sweet things as they age, i.e. when younger you can tolerate and even crave a lot more sugary things...
Haha! I was diagnosed with a Penicillin allergy when I was no older than 10 years old. Just recently I needed an antibiotic and they wanted to prescribe me Penicillin and I told them I am allergic. They sent me to an allergist and she said she is sure I have outgrown it. She proceeded with the test and I am still allergic 50 years later! Turns out I haven't outgrown it. But I have outgrown my allergies to cats and dogs! Go figure! 🙃
Interesting, as a physical therapist, I see Apley Scratch Test performed quite often. While it can be used to test for a possible rotator cuff tear, we use it more often to assess capsular restrictions in the glenohumeral joint. We often use more specialized tests for suspected rotator cuff involvement
Every time I end on a video about the body, there’s always another joint or muscle with a crazy name 😂 What in the world is a glenohuneral joint 😂😂
@@brandonhoover2120 Oh, the glenohumeral joint? That's an important one, it's where your arm goes into your shoulder socket. Just your classic ball-and-socket diarthrosis. If you really want to get wild on a Friday night, look up the joints in the bones of your inner ear.

I was severely allergic to cats as a child
Got a hypoallergenic cat, and spent one week per summer with a relative with a cat. Now I am comfortable saying I’m no longer allergic to cats, and given how my allergic reaction steadily dropped in severity I think I can accurately state that life with a hypoallergenic cat had a significant effect.

My sweat had an entirely different smell to it, and it was from me dry-heaving so much. It took about 3-5 days combined with me showering to get rid of the smell and have my natural odors come back. Our bodies are terrifying yet amazing lol
sir i really enjoyed this video thank you for the info... well can u make video on related to thyroid . like not to do or should do , interesting facts and so more... waiting for to see this type of video thank youuu>3 :)
Fun one to help prove your first question. I loved dairy products when I was a kid, became lactose intolerant when I was 16, can now 20 years later introduce some lactose in my diet in limited amounts and be fine. So yes like your taste buds your allergen tolerances can change. My dad did the same thing with his cat allergies(funny he’s now more allergic to dogs now)
RE growing out of allergies:
I had an egg allergy as a little kid, I could still eat cake or similar, but would get a really itchy mouth and a bit of redness around the mouth if I ate an omelette or similar that was mostly eggs.
It went away when I got older without me ever realising until someone made double Dutch pancakes (bacon and egg in the pancakes) and I got concerned that I might have a reaction but nothing happened. Tested it a few times afterwards and I have no reaction at all even eating boiled/scrambled eggs alone with nothing else.
Always wondered the mechanism as to how that works, does the immune system just realise it's not a threat somehow or what?
I was deathly allergic to strawberries as a baby but one day I told my parents that I wanted to try one again to test if it went away, and luckily it did!
Egg allergy is actually one of the most commonly outgrown allergies. I had an egg allergy too but the doctor did blood tests and said I should be able to eat eggs and I could.
@@GamingGardevoir Your parents were just like “well ok if you die today, you die today”
Not sure if this is true or not, but I heard that childhood allergies are often grown out of, but allergies developed after 25 tend to stick around for the rest of your life. Would love to know if anyone has confirmation of this.

In elementary school we played to see who could put their arms together with other exercises, and now that I think about it they were somewhat risky. Sugar rush, it reminds me when I took care of my nephews and we saw the movie of wreck-It ralph, they grow up so fast. I love this content, I always learn something new, and I remember many things too.
I bet the sugar rush myth also comes from families eating together: grown-ups getting tired, they'd perceive the children's less reduced wakefulness as a rush, because they just could not possibly keep up. :)

I remember getting severe allergies from eating seafood, went to an allergist who prescribed allergy meds to me, then my allergy got worse and I was sent to the ER like 2 days later. Found out I was allergic to the meds. Haha!
I am curious, are you also allergic to betadine?
It's another one of those things that is in that same allergy group. Might be good to know ahead of any surgeries that you end up needing.
That’s sad. I’m glad I’m not allergic to Zyrtec, since I’ve got a horrible pollen allergy
Every time I tell people I have an allergy to allergy meds people look at me like I'm crazy. I find it odd though that a doctor would prescribe allergy meds for a food allergy,especially without further investigating your reaction to the seafood.
@@amyharris2121 I have an allergy to Benadryl and penicillin. I feel your pain. People, especially doctors, also look at me weird too.
@@helloiamalexa Benadryl is the one I am actually not allergic to at the moment. However I cannot use this for allergies, it puts me to sleep. When I was in the hospital I had an allergic reaction to the pain meds, they used benadryl to counter the reaction. It put me to sleep again lol.
Every time I turn around I have a new sensitivity or allergy happening.

Salt hurts slugs and snails because it rapidly dehydrates them via osmosis; while eating too much salt could throw your system off a bit and dehydrate you, humans can just rehydrate 🤷🏻♀️
Lol i tried adding salt to a new family of snails in my plants cuz these btches started eating ma plants
you the kinda person to cause themselves brain damage cause they think they can just overeat on salt and fix it by drinking shittons of water.
@@MedievalSolutions me?? I’m just answering questions about slugs; I’m not saying anyone should eat shittons of salt

4:39 Props to the AfterEffects guy or the editor who made letter " A " filling the gap. Those little details make the video a whole lot better.
1:49 well this explains why I never felt effected by it even though everyone told me I’d get hyper by eating so much sugar
I also believe many people interchange the term “allergy” with “intolerance”. I work in pharmacy and i would say probably at least 75% of the time when I ask what someone’s reaction was to what they’re allergic to, their response is more indicative of an intolerance or side effect.
The smell thing was interesting to me because I can smell when people have migraine headaches or even if they are about to get one
🤔
Woah 😻 so cool
That's amazing. How did you figure that out?
Little known fact! The Eustachian tube is just the vessel in which the pressure in the ears is equalized. It's actually your inner ear cavity behind the Tympanic Membrane (eardrum) that is causing that pressure/release when you feel the popping in your ears. The eardrum begins to flex inward when negative pressure happens in the inner ear and pops back out when pressure is normalized. This is why yawning or opening your mouth wide helps reduce that pressure since the Eustachian tube is indeed located in the back of your throat and adjusts pressure accordingly.
Ok, but what if I have this popping in my ears all the time? It's usually when I swallow, but not only that, I can somahow control it whenever I want to hear it between swallowings (because when I swallow I can't control it)... I don't know if this makes sense, but I've had this for like 2 years or something like that and I just learned to live with it, it's just I don't know if this is normal or not and if it will cause me problems.....
@@teonabaraboiu2295 I would definitely schedule a consultation with an audiologist to check your ears out if you have a persistent problem like that.
@@5naxFax I had two actually when this appeared, they both said it's nothing, it's normal for the eardrum to make a little sound when I swallow (this is what they said).... plus, it doesn't bother me anymore since I got used to it and my hearing is perfectly fine
@@5naxFax but thanks for the advice
You can control the pressure in your ears through trying to breathe in and out through your nose while clamping down your nostrils.
This video answered all the questions i Google when am bored.

THANKS for confirming that probiotic foods CAN actually help you feel better during and after an antibiotic therapy. I was starting to think it was all just my imagination (placebo effect, which I'm fine with as long as it helps), but hearing from a doctor that eating my yummy bifidus yoghurt with some fresh fruit mixed into it might actually have a positive impact makes it even tastier. As for the the allergy question: I think I somehow trained my immune system to no longer overreact when confronted with cat allergenes. When I got my cat, I sneezed every single time I cleaned her litter box, and her little scratches would itch for hours. At first, I sometimes had to take antihistamines in the morning so I wouldn't have red itching eyes all day. However, over the course of the months, things got better. My theory is that through her little scratches, she brought a tiny amount of allergenes under my skin, which is similar to what they do in certain desensitization therapies. Also, I never started freaking out and trying to avoid contact with allergenes. I WANTED to get used to it, and it worked. Sometimes I tell people that I bascially just willed my body into accepting the fact that I love cats, lol.
In ADDITION to the antibiotic/probiotic: please remember to take them separately. If taken together, it negates it since the antibiotic will just kill the probiotic. I’ve always been told to take the probiotic 2 hours after taking the antibiotic to replace the good bacteria. 😊
If I’m wrong, Dr. Mike: let me know ❤️
Isn’t probiotics like a myth
@@haaton3116 How so? Your body has all kinds of bacteria in it - good and bad. When you take antibiotics, it wipes out both good and bad. So you use probiotics (good bacteria) to replace the good so you’re not left with diarrhea and potentially even C. Diff (a type of intestinal infection caused by not having the correct amount of good bacteria in your gut). It’s not a myth - I promise. Look into it :)
@@Ashleyy.Taylorr exactly this. It's why a lot of doctors prescribe acidophilus when they prescribe strong antibiotics
My biochemistry teacher used to tell us: ça sert à quoi de boire 8 verres d'eau par jour? Which means why do we need this much water daily? We take it from food, etc.. and I still remember it till now

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I had dogs and cats as a kid, and ate all kinds of nuts (though I was never a huge fan). No allergy to any of them. As an adult, when my fiancé moved in with his cat, i had allergy symptoms for two weeks, then my body got over it. We later got a second cat, and i again reacted for two weeks, then was fine. A few years ago, I nibbled on a macadamia nut at a bar and felt some tingling and swelling in my throat. So yeah, some allergies definitely can come and go in response to exposure (or lack thereof).
"Or even pumpkin spice, 'cause come on, it is that season." Wait a second, 2 puns in 1 sentence?
For as long as I can remember, I cannot run at my max speed for more than 30 seconds without getting terrible pain in my side and having trouble breathing afterward. Why? Love your videos! You're such an inspiration!
Side stiches are actually diaphragm cramps/spasms
if you breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth it helps!!
I’m starting to hear this so often but water has helped clear my skin and migraines quite a alot
It does help migraines, even strong ones. But clear skin is something of a false. It does a little boost to the liver and kidneys and maybe even get sugar levels down, which levels down inflammation, which reduces a lot of most acne.

As a former Wal-Mart employee, it hurt to hear you call their food "high quality" lol. I mean, it's not bottom quality, but high quality is over selling it a bit.
LOL- Oh my gosh-
depends on a lot of factors like where it came from and what time of year it is like it could be low quality or high quality
You were never paid thousands of dollars to say it was good quality. With all their rights issues on workers as well as only ever paying a pittance for a salary, it is sad to see Mike has sort of sold out. I am sure Mike made more money with this sponsorship than you would working 5 years at Walmart.
I thought the same thing. Why whyyy

Fun fact: According to the latest research in the microbiome field, taking probiotics is probably not so smart of an idea. On one hand, in most store-bought probiotics, the number of bacteria that are actually alive and fit enough to colonize your guts are negligible. On the other hand, a healthy micribiome is not just about the amount of bacteria, but the diversity of the bacterial population. Most of these probiotics are made of one bacterial species, typically Lactobacillus species, which are prominent in the gut micobiome, but not the most prominent. So, overall, taking probiotics, or food that supposedly can be good for the gut microbiome has a minimal effect on the recolonisation of your gut, and might be even harmful in some cases because it shifts the natural diversity of the bacteria. The only surefire way to build back a degraded microbiome is fecal transplant, but, for obvious reasons, that is only used as a last resort. (Sincerely, a microbiologist)
It helps me to lose weight A LOT. It doesn't make me have diarrhoea, but makes everything moving. Never been diagnosed, but I think I have IBS or something, because it doesn't matter what I eat or how much water I drink, I can't go to the toilet, sometimes for a full week. Since I started taking probiotics, everything just seems like working in a normal manner. I don't know if it makes sense.
@@vivienm2037 I have a book on fermentation and the author included a very similar story to yours after he started making and consuming kefir.
Is it true that we should focus on having PREbiotics instead? I.e. food that feeds your healthy bacteria population? I was told I should eat pistachios and other nuts but I don't know if its true or not.
@@chico815 Yes, it's quite true that prebiotics are important. Not sure how much focus is needed. But fermented vegetables have had a long history and should have a place in our diet

The mental is big when it comes to metabolic rate. It's something that can be difficult to observe. How does one account for all the times that they could have wanted to do something? That they could have self-motivated to get something done? That constant drive to move is big. When you're trying to lose weight while depressed it's an uphill battle. You push yourself to move more but also tire yourself out in the process which can cause you to move less the rest of the day. Exercising takes up all of what little drive you do have. You exercise to feel better about yourself but get discouraged by your percieved weakness, lack of progress, or inability to commit sufficiently which just pushes you further into that depression. You're playing an entirely different game than other people even when it looks the same on the outside. So as tempting as it can often be to take what is portrayed as the "Optimal" path sometimes it's better to just make your own and find what works for you instead. Try not to hold yourself to the standards of others and just focus on making consistently making small efforts.
Can we have a dedicated video for vegan meats? Seitan, beyond, impossible, plus others

Dr. Mike: The is water in soda, you are hydrating.
People on the internet: Doc Mike said I should drink a 2 liter of soda everyday.
Haha
Soda doesn’t have water. Your body converts the carbonic acid into CO2 and water. It’s net dehydration.
Soda has a lot of sodium and sugar in it so technically you need regular water to clean out the rest of the soda.
As long as it's diet soda.
@@becks5198 There's an excess of sugar in there to cover up the extra sodium the manufacturers started adding in the 1970's to get people to drink more.
