Most Replayed Moment: The Antibiotic Alternative Big Pharma Doesn't Want You To Know!

Now the package is ready.

“The best way to test a gratis test is to have a cheese cheese.”

Now the gratis test is ready. No matter what, it's time to test.

The case of the case is not ready for the first time.

But it's time to test the gratis test. The final solution for the package is to have cheese minus action. So there are three things that I've been able to attain. As risks of misuse or overuse or inappropriate use of antibiotics, which is the impact on the gut microbiome.

And you're contributing to the rise in antibiotic resistance. And that's what the main thing. I guess even with the diseases you get, you'll be slower to heal, because you're less if you've got that resistance. That is one of the things that we do see,

particularly those who are a long-term ill, we know that they lose some of the healing capacity, and that's so much of the work I do is to aim to put some of that right.

“And there's links to colorectal cancers.”

Well, that's it, because we're talking about the microbiome,

so those are the cancers and the lower gut. And we know that the microbiome is a major factor in how well we've got it. So things like Crohn's and ulcerative colitis and cancer of the bowel, very closely linked to the state of the microbiome. Okay. So are there alternatives on this table,

or in the world of plants to antibiotics that I should maybe also consider, instead of just jumping straight to antibiotics for everything that I experience. Yes. If you've got a serious gut or other infection, you may need the antibiotic, so let's put that straight away. But if you've got a cold, flu virus, a viral problem,

particularly the airways, you, A antibiotics won't have no use at all, and B, as we just said, they just add to the risk of more. Because every time you take an antibiotic, you're growing a small population of that,

of the species of bacteria that's affected, who are resistant to that,

is natural selection.

“You have a thousand little bacteria that's a small amount by their terms,”

and you kill 999 of them. The one that survives will then become two and 20 minutes, and four and 40 minutes, and suddenly become a new population. And you know, I, I ducked that bullet, and so that group of bacteria will already be resistant.

So we're creating resistant every time we use an antibiotic. So try, let's try and do something else, shall we? So let's say you've got a cold. You're feeling the cold, it's got a good name, by the way. So cold is one of the things you feel when you've got a cold,

and that's interesting because in four more times, we didn't have tests, we didn't have laboratories, we didn't have paramedics, we didn't have people poking things in you, or we could know as what a felt like. And when you've got a cold, you often feel cold,

and you feel chills, and you want to wrap up, and you want to hop, water, you want to have a pass. All that in the old language meant that you were cold, and what you needed to do was to heat up. Now you take this fella, this is ginger.

It's grown widely around the well, and it's a original Asian form. It was made extinct around the time of the Romans. So popular was it. And every since all the ginger sense of this species has got to go from rootstock as no longer seeds itself.

So this has been the most valuable natural commodity ever. In its dried form, worth more than its weight in gold. And the reason why all those Europeans ended up in Asia, running in Deer and South of the Dutch and the Indonesia and so on, is because that's where these things came from.

That's where the spices came from. And so we decided in a good capitalist to go and control the business. So ginger became very popular over here, because we don't have nothing I could over here. The nearest thing we've got is horse radish,

which I promise you is no substitute for this. So how do we use this? We've got an opportunity here about the size of your thumb. That's about good dose. You create it fresh ginger into a mug.

Can you do that for me? I've got only got a great tip. I've got a great tip for you. So we've got here a piece of ginger as I said about the size of your thumb. The thumb is a good measure because it's your measure.

So if you're a small person, you'll have a small thumb. But I'm a bigger person, so I'm going to use. And you literally make a bit of a mess here.

It's literally creating a great nice isn't into a mug.

“And let's say that was the whole thumb I don't want to take up too much time on this.”

And then the one thing that works brilliantly with ginger is cinnamon. Now this is cinnamon by an any shop. It comes in different forms. There's one from China called Cassia, which looks like one be called bark.

If you look at this one, you'll see that it's tightly wrapped with lots of little curl. Lots of little filaments in it. That's the one you go for. It's got it's more aromatic. And do either great that with if you've got a spice meal or you take a teaspoon of it.

Let's say that's a teaspoon full. And you put that in your mug. So that's ginger and cinnamon.

Ginger and cinnamon, that's it.

Then you add your hot water. You're going for real. Yeah, for real one. Good on you. At this point, it's silver's useful.

Why? Because it's going to be as full of... Oh, bits, bits.

“And then let's say this is a nice Japanese green tea mug.”

But let's say this is your mug. And we'll pour a little bit in there. You see all the stuff that you leave behind? Ah, yeah. Ah, okay.

And if you don't mind sharing a mug. So what's in here? This is just ginger and cinnamon. Ginger and cinnamon. Just ginger and cinnamon. It's fairly weak.

Oh, it is nice, though. It is nice. It is nice. Can you feel it warming already? Yes, straight away.

It's really nice. Yeah. Now you see what's happening there is that you... I mean, ginger is an example of a group of remedies which includes turmeric. By the way, and that's other root.

They are the root there. Oh, that sounds turmeric. It's normally seen in a yellow powder. And we might talk about that later. And black pepper and chilies.

I've got a chili here. Which when you take them, you think you're burning a mouth on to it. The interesting thing is that there's no burning. You can actually have full Madras level chili. And no harm will be done.

Too all lining because there's no burning going on. What you're doing is you're stimulating the pain fibers. You've got pain fibers all the way through the lining of the mouth. When you take a hot thing like ginger, it's stimulating the pain fibers. And immediately there's a...

What we call a reflex response, which opens at the blood vessels. It's called Hyperemia, more blood. And the vessel's lining these mecosis. The ones that you just swallow and then screwing a little bit up in the nasal passages are opening up. The mucus cells producing mucus will loosen up and you get more runny mucus,

which is helping to flush through the... The grott on the mecosis. And the main thing you feel is the warmth. And if you're dealing with something down here in the lungs, you actually start bringing up more gunk up the airways.

There's a natural escalator that we use to... The body uses to get stuff out of the lungs. That's stimulated.

“And the mixture of cinnamon and ginger was created, I think, in heaven.”

I mean, I think there's subtle natural complement. And anybody can do that. And the point about it is that it's warming.

And in the old days, that was the key thing.

You wouldn't matter if you had a headache or a joint pain or a menstrual cramp. If you wanted to put hot water bottle on it, or heat it up, then that was a cold problem. And putting a heating medicine would begin to make difference. So you can use the same thing. If you have a headache and you want to put a hot pack on it.

If you've got a menstrual cramp, you want to put a hot water bottle. You want to join pain and you want to put a heating element on it. You can use the same thing. Ginger, just because it's heating. And that's simple, old medicine.

So when you're experiencing different types of pain or a cold, then cinnamon and ginger are good. I think I've got what, only if it responds to heat.

"Tell me, would you prefer a hot pack or a nice pack?" "For your migraine?"

“And migraine suffers generally split, 70, 30 preferring heat.”

70, but a third of people with migraines actually want a cold pack.

You don't use ginger for that. You use cooling remedies which will come on to later. Okay. My girlfriend, she drinks ginger tea all the time. Almost every day.

Yeah, she likes the heat. She drinks it before bed as well. Mm. You can help with sleep if that's the way it goes. I mean, people are different.

And there are some people who can't take ginger at all because there's stomach object. Or because it literally heats up too much. They get simulated by it. But that's where the individuality comes in. Okay, so any, any condition where I might be looking for heat.

Ginger and cinnamon. First place to go. First place to go. Yeah, you could, if you wanted to be text mexia, you can take the jellies. As well.

Well, you know, there's a, we think of them as a much more stream version of the heating. And, you know, remind ourselves there was only when your opinions discovered the Americas that chilies became used over here. Can you imagine an Italian meal without, you know, without tomatoes and chilies. But in the old days, there were none of those because they all came from America.

But the chilies were the American equivalent of ginger. Use for the same purpose. So if someone comes to you and they say, "Son, when should I use chilies as a form of medication, what would you say?"

First of all, I don't know yet.

And, you know, if I'm dealing with someone that's a distance in a long line or on the phone or something, and they say, "Oh, no, what shall I try?" I said, "The first thing to do is you've figured it out. You can start with herbal teas." You are, Dave.

I'm going to drop it into the, I'm going to drop it into here. Is that a bad idea? Yeah, yeah, no, go for it.

“But you should notice that should be quite a hot one.”

I will ask suggest that they start with herbal teas because herbal teas are a very low dose. But they'll allow you to figure out what suits you. And you can divide as a, as a, hinting at earlier, old medicines were often divided into those that were more warming. We were now called stimulating circulation.

And more cooling, which we were now translators stimulating digestion. And depending on which of those you prefer, it would really give me a clue. So if you were looking at warming remedies, it could be ginger tea, it could be phenol tea. You know, that's a warming remedy, or it could be cinnamon, or any of the spices. Cardamom is one of my favorites, by the way.

And this is, I use cardamom, this is the cardamom pods inside of this little black seeds. App seeds are lovely taste. Do you know him? Do you know a cardamom? Who tried it? Not really now. Or have a bite of that.

I just bite the seeds. Yeah, just bite into it. You don't, just get a hint of the taste. In many parts of the Middle East, cardamom is one of the main flavours, things like coffee and so on. It reminds me of, oh, it's going to be Indian food. I've had this used a lot in India.

And in China, it's a convalescent tonic. So they use it when people building up their digestion after being ill for a long time. They would often use cardamom. That's one of my favorite remedies for that when people really run low their digestion doesn't functioning. It was appeared in one or two of these stories I've got here.

Because I prefer that to most of the other spices when I need warming, as I said before, but also sustaining and nourishing.

“So you asked them, do you prefer teas that are warming, or would you like something more cooling?”

And now one of the most cooling remedies that people know about is this, which is mint. That spear mint, the best one is peppermint. It's kind of lovely smell, isn't it? Yeah.

That has always been thought of as cooling.

And it's a simple test, would you prefer ginger or peppermint tea? And really, you begin to narrow things down a bit. The main cooling remedies throughout history, from the very beginning. And in every part of the world, you'll find them saying exactly the same thing. The main cooling remedies, so called, are the bitters.

And they taste really bitter.

So I want something to cool me down. And there's certain conditions where I will feel of your hot fever, fever. They were often used to fever, manage fever. And what happened? Remember, when we were young, we were told, if you've had a big meal, don't go swimming.

You weren't told that. I can't swim, so that was one of the things.

Some of us, in my generation, at least, were always remembered we were told.

If you've got a big meal, it's not a good idea to go swimming, because the blood's moving into the digestion. And you won't get many as much as you want when you need it in the limbs.

“And that's true, when you are digesting a lot of blood investment, shall we call it?”

It's going into the digestive system, because there's a lot of work needed to break down this food. Turn it into something useful. It doesn't investment. You put a lot in, you get much more out. But what it means is that digestion is all about it. I'm just being bit loose here with the language, but it's not about it.

It's not bringing blood into the core.

When you've got a fever, the blood's all charging around, and your body temperature's going up, which is great, because fever actually is a defense measure. You know, when our body temperature rises by a couple of degrees,

“our white blood cells, the ones that are doing the legwork, two or three times as active.”

So fever is what the body uses when it needs to bring out the big guys, bring out the fight. There's a slight design problem. It's almost as though the creators put a purpose for fault in the system, because a lot of fever comes from the gut. They get gut infections. That's one of the main places. And at that moment, all the blood's going out here, and you want more of it going in more digestion, if you like.

So when you take a bit of, when you're taking a bit of your actually triggering taste buds up here, a bit of, a bit of something of taste bitter. Is there any plants that aren't bitter? Yeah, a bit of plants are very common.

“And we're highly valued in the old world.”

In our times, probably the most bitter plant that people used in European terms were some of your wormwood. Now, you may not be familiar with that word, but the French wormwood is for a muth. And you think of the use of a drink before a meal. The idea was it was they used to call it an aperitif, something that's stimulated your appetite. So they were used bitters to improve your appetite, and a low level of wormwood would be one of them, some dandelion and burdock of two other bitters, which we know have as a soft drink, you know, particularly in America.

And we know that bitters do switch on the appetite, so we sometimes use them when appetite is poor. And, you know, there's all sorts of reasons why you've got a low appetite, but bitters can really help. Well, if you're recovering from an illness, they can help with getting the digestion juices flowing and the appetite up. Because they bring blood to the digestive system. Well, they do all sorts of things, actually, when you switch on these receptors in the mouth, these taste buds, they are hard-wired and they produce hormones down here in the stomach that switch on all sorts of things.

And, in fact, of increased digestive activity, which involves more blood coming into the area. So, yes, let's imagine you're living in some part of, you know, the desert area in the Middle East. You know, you're eating a sheep or something that hasn't seen a refrigerator, and it's a bit dodgy, you know. And you've, you know, after a meal, you turn to something easily available in that part of the world. It's a plant called Cafe Herabica. We call it coffee. Ground the coffee into a sludge of the bottom, poor bit of hot water, and drink that straight.

That's a biter. So, if you ever had an espresso without sugar, that's a biter. Okay. And that was used as the digestive, in other words, after eating, it would help cope with some pretty rough food.

So, bitters were always seen to be good for your digestion and appetite.

And in fever, that actually meant lowering your body temperature, and that's, we can see that happening, you know. It means that you're some of the anger out here just gets some animated into digestion. So, that was where the bitters got their cooling reputation. And we'll get now and after this is all medieval nonsense, but the point that I keep coming back to when I'm seeing patients, I start with that blank sheet of paper.

And as you notice with your ginger and cinnamon, you don't need long.

You've got it there straight up. And, you know, if I give a biter to somebody and, you know, someone is really bitter. They will know within an hour or so what effect is heavy?

What you just listened to was the most replayed moment from a previous episode.

“If you want to listen to that full episode, I've linked it down below. Check the description. Thank you.”

Now there's cheese. A new kind of cheese that you've eaten for the most delicious food.

It's called the "Jazz de la Packung" brand. It's the best. You can test it once again.

“If you want to have a cheese, cheese, cheese, cheese. Now it's the best.”

Time for the 18 year old. The most beautiful and beautiful city in the world. But as long as the preparation, the time for the final performance and the cheese minus action.
