I actually think it makes a lot of sense when you think about it. It communicates socio-economic status (aka are you wealthy). Having a tan shows you have a lot spare time, and go on holidays, which might reflect being wealthy and very social. Back in around 1800 in Europe white skin was seen as beautiful because it showed you were rich enough to not work and stay inside. The workers were the ones with a tan. In a lot of African countries being overweight is seen as beautiful because it shows you are wealthy enough to buy more than enough food.

Knowing what healthy teeth looks like is important to. “Pearly white” isn’t normally considered to be naturally healthy, rather a grayish white to a light yellow is an indicator of healthy teeth. Dentin is the layer in your teeth that ultimately determines your teeth’s color, enamel the top layer is supposed to be semi-translucent.

My grandma used a tanning bed nearly everyday for 30 years. Her skin is now like tissue paper, she somehow never got skin cancer, but her skin pretty much just falls off. She goes through a box of band-aids a week because she cracks if she bumps into the wall. She is white, but tanned so much for so long that she looks black. She has looked black (African-American, not the actual color black) for over 20 years. She hasn't tanned in the last couple years because of her inability to drive and other health problems, but her skin is still black. I imagine eventually it will go back to white, but it sure doesn't seem like it. She is the best case scenario for tanning bed use, she never got cancer, but her skin instead falls off. Their is no winning against the tanning bed.

You have to do it all if it isn't working try melatonin. If that still isn't working talk to your Dr about sleep meds, remember to rotate to different ones regularly to prevent tolerance.

I think the best way to view this video is to view the advice advice given by Dr Mike as recommendations. Some of the advice Dr Mike has given won't be very practical for some viewers, e.g. Keeping more active by taking the stairs will not be very applicable for a wheelchair-bound person. So I'd say its best not to get hung up on the point about sleeping as an insomiac. Try your best with sleep and focus on the other areas which may have a domino effect and eventually help your sleep (better diet and cutting out caffeine and sugar before bed or getting adequate exercise in a day to help get rid of "excess energy"). With all that said, try your best! All the advice give is more like a guide to healthier habits and lifestyle, not a rule to follow.

@@GoddoDoggoDermatologists recommend LED light therapy due to the science backing photobiomodulation. I know it seems gimmicky at first, but there’s literal science behind different wavelengths of light. For example, UV light is a wavelength of light and that does stuff, right? Both good and bad, depending on context. He literally mentioned some bad in the context of sun beds. But, it can also be converted to vitamin D by our skin and also by mushrooms. And it kills germs. Visible blue light is a milder wavelength of UV light, which can kill acne bacteria, but isn’t known to cause cancer. Visible red light is a milder wavelength of infrared. You can literally feel the warmth of infrared light. Red light LED masks tend to be a combination of both visible red light and infrared light. Different wavelengths absorbed by our eyes can signal things to our brains and manipulate our circadian rhythm. And you surely know of plants photosynthesising certain wavelengths of light? The reason why you see so many indoor plants under magenta colour grow lights is because science proves which wavelengths are most useful to plants and it’s red and blue light. You can even manipulate plants to grow more leaves or bloom flowers by using more blue or red light. UV light is minimally useful to plants for much the same reason as us, to kill bacteria. I’m not suggesting our skin photosynthesises, just that wavelengths of lights are proven by science to actually do things beyond look pretty. It’s actually fascinating how powerful light can be in so many different areas of life and is a rabbit hole I recommend you go down if the science interests you.

Thank you for doing this summary. It's so helpful when medical providers speak to what people are being told all day so that we don't have to remember to ask about literally every inconsequential thing during our precious in-office time, I can use that time more for follow up questions on topics instead. And I'm sure this makes your visits more efficient too because you can answer follow up questions instead of answering the same questions.

A vast majority of studies done on posture correctors are done on sedentary people. If you are an athlete doing hypertrophy training and you suffer from specific hyper-mobility, posture correctors directly after targeted training can be a useful therapeutic tool for rectifying instability. Muscle fatigue can cause laxity and if you maintain a stretched position over time laxity becomes worse. The trickiest thing about any therapy is to know when it is appropriate and when it is not.

It did help, but the drawback was that it was a bit of a pain to take off and put back on when I had to use the bathroom (which obviously in the third trimester was a lot, lol), but I worked a very active job where I had to often bend down, squat, twist etc and it really helped my back pain!

There are literally trillions of bacteria thriving on, and in, the human body. Each section of the body has "indigenous" bacteria that are good for that area and make us healthier. The harm commences when these different types of bacteria become interchanged with other areas, such as e-coli on the butt tracking to the urethra, causing a UTI.

Unusual female problems that don't get diagnosed enough and on the flip side very common ones that get under diagnosed? I.e. orgasms..what is normal, abdominal pain, muscle issues etc I know it's really common for us to have bladder issues and nobody really care. In fact when talking to my doctor about it a female of all things, I was told it was normal after childbirth and to do kegels it's been years now and nothing has changed I feel embarrassed and shut down by my doctor. I even went to a urologist and they said that I had a problem but they also said they didn't treat it. I'm going to have to travel to go see a bladder specialist I guess in psychology I didn't even know any of those things were a thing😅 I've been in therapy for a long time but I don't really know how my mind is influencing my bladder. I know this affects men too. So maybe it would be better to do the segment over all of these things men included but it also would be nice to see something just for females because we struggle with our health so much and are often put to the side. I can't tell you how many people have given me depression problems when I've been complaining of pain, muscle stiffness lethargy and memory issues of course I have consulted the great Google it has told me I'm dying from everything 😂 it would be really nice to know who to turn to.. and what I should be focusing on. Sometimes I feel lost and really have choice exhaustion... I really don't know how to advocate for myself either sometimes I get so frustrated I've actually been to two different female doctors who told me I could only treat two medical conditions at a time.

Exercise greatly increases blood flow but athletes are just as bald as anyone else, and unless your scalp and hair and roller are all sterile before you start, and your skin entirely free from bacteria like acne bacteria, derma-rolling will deposit unsterile material into your blood, and scrubbing the scalp doesn't clean your blood! Not that you're likely to have any problems. Our bodies are good at dealing with minor irritations.
