This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 🙏

This man is a Chiropractor NOT a M.D.

[@Charliehund100]

How do you know what he says is correct and that what every other doctor says is incorrect? In fact, how do you know what every other doctor says? Doctors are people, and like all other people, I'm guessing they have differing opinions on things, especially health and nutrition.

[@iannblanco4341]

He is not a medical doctor. Plus all his teachings are searchable on the internet, you just have to find the correct source and not just random sites. I bet when you ask him about deeper subject matters in medicine like surgery, he couldnt give you detailed answers since he is not a surgeon, so why would you say he should be put on medical schools. He makes his videos simple to understand so normal people with no knowledge about medicine will also easily understand.

[@MrQuadcity]

Dr. Alan Mandell's video provides essential guidance on the timing of vitamin supplement intake to optimize health benefits and avoid sleep disturbances. Here are the key takeaways: 1. **Avoid B Vitamins Before Bed:** B vitamins stimulate the nervous system and can disrupt sleep if taken at night. Best taken earlier in the day without the need for food. 2. **Vitamin D with Fat During the Day:** Vitamin D competes with melatonin, potentially affecting sleep quality. Since it requires fat for absorption, take it with a meal containing healthy fats earlier in the day. 3. **Calcium and Magnesium Competition:** Taking calcium at night can interfere with magnesium absorption, essential for muscle and nervous system relaxation. Avoid calcium supplements before bed. 4. **Fish Oil Timing:** Due to potential for acid reflux and its slow digestion, fish oil (Omega-3s) should not be taken right before sleep. It's best consumed with a fat-containing meal earlier in the day. 5. **Vitamin C Caution:** Its acidity and stimulating effect may cause sleep disturbances and gastroesophageal reflux if taken on an empty stomach before bed. 6. **Multivitamins with Meals:** Since they contain both fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins, multivitamins are best taken with a larger meal earlier in the day to ensure proper absorption and avoid energy spikes at night.

Dear sir, Plz make a vedio on , 1, how to minimise the smoking side effects,,,,,if we can't able to quit smoking, 2, how can we make our lungs and heart healthy,, how can we wash our heart and lunges clean 3,, How can we quit smoking at all,is there any remedy

[@divinewon73]

Quitting smoking is difficult, but not as difficult as quitting sugar! Meanwhile, some thing that really helps you to breathe better whether you smoke or not is organic all of oregano… Six drops under the tongue and it helps you to breathe greatly. It has many other benefits, but it addresses your questions specifically. Best bet for any issue is to look up “food sources“ for whatever topic and look for food sources to help and those to avoid. Both my parents were smokers, 1.5 packs daily and both quit cold turkey and never smoked again. Smoking increases alertness and reduces anxiety, but with so many health issues associated with it, and also inflicting secondhand smoke, which is even worse on others, it is really a great thing to quit, because it cost so much and stinks as well. It really is difficult to do if you don’t want to quit and that is where you need to apply your discipline. You must think about all the benefits of quitting, including saving money! Also, later in life, you may develop emphysema among many other difficulties, but my mother had it, and it was very hard to deal with. Best health to you!😘

I've always wondered about Vitamin D! 🤔 It makes sense that it would signal "it's daylight now" to your brain, making it best taken in the begining or middle of the day.

It interferes with melatonin. Our bodies make melatonin. I wonder if this is why I have had insomnia for months! It coincides with when I started taking it! At bedtime!

Guilty of taking Omega 3, and a Liposomal vitamin c at night. they don't interfere with my sleep though, i take them a bit early, usually after my last meal, and the reason I added C, at night is, to help with collagen / skin health.

[@mariec7092]

Vitamin C is not a stimulant. It is an antioxidant and as such reduces the inflammation that may irritate you and prevent you from sleeping. Also, sleeping actually requires a lot of energy. And if you're sluggish during the day it could also be for psychological reasons and the illnesses we have could also be your body sabotaging itself so it doesn't have to do these things so.... I know I sometimes like to take freshly squeezed orange juice when I can't sleep and it will help me cool down and feel the peace I need.

I took a class from the Cancer Society many years ago to help my husband and I stop smoking Here are a few tips we got from them Put a rubber band around your wrist and snap it when u get the urge to smoke. Don’t buy your favorite brand of cigarettes Wrap cigarette pack in paper and keep in another room These are to delay the urge to smoke. Set a limit on how many cigarettes you smoke a day and how many hours apart. This is most important: Look in mirror, into ur eyes and repeat 10 times: I don’t smoke. That is what worked for me. It changes the way ur brain thinks about smoking. Instead of always saying I want to quit. Good luck

[@museme9767]

If calcium competes with magnesium and melatonin, why do people recommend warm milk before bed?

[@mozit6]

IMHO, It is simply due to lack of knowledge concerning foods and the human body. Calcium is highly regulated in the body to maintain correct ph levels within a very, very, narrow range, especially in the bloodstream. That is why you should never take calcium pills, but rather eat calcium containing foods. Vitamin D acts as a signaling molecule to gut microbes to break down calcium from food and send to required locations only as needed, most often to bones and teeth. Any extra calcium is ideally excreted but many times it is not and finds its way into tissues and blood vessels causing atherosclerosis and heart disease. Vitamin K must be present in order to direct calcium into bones/teeth and keep it out of soft tissues except in limited amounts. Never take Vit D without Vit K. Magnesium is important for many functions and works in conjunction with the vitamins to maintain heart health preventing calcification of arteries, etc. Most all foods will have a bit of calcium so it really is best to never consume food a couple hours before bedtime but not primarily because calcium competes. Digestion and sleep are not compatible. Perhaps only a small sip of warm milk could be conducive to getting off to sleep quickly, but a better choice is ginger or chamomile tea for its sedative effects.
