"This Is Decreasing Our Lifespan" - Key Cause Of Disease, Obesity & Mental Illness | Dr. Elisa Song

[@shelchicago8997]

She’s such a calming doctor. Her voice soothes and her knowledge heals.

Important to address the damages caused by awful school lunches. Fast foods, cheap and processed food franchises everywhere in the USA. Hospital foods / nursing homes, daycare… all around s consistently making people sick. Kids taste buds get numbed earlier on… even through breast milk - moms unfortunately from generations of fast foods, junk, cheap, processed foods.

[@juliesmith4548]

I wrote to state leadership, politicians and got a message back that said the school lunches were sufficient. It is not when you see what they feed then it is cheap food. Same for pregnant women in congregate care, food for health was not a consideration on the radar for meeting standards. Sad for babies already compromised.

I did the Feingold Diet with my hyperactive 3 year old son 43 years ago and it was like a miracle for him. Even in adulthood he could feel himself getting hyper with food that had food colors in it, especially red.

We buy our meat/eggs from local farms, grow our herbs veggies and fruit (not all, but most), and make all of our snacks at home. I make big batches so it lasts for the week. No processed junk in the home. These things are not hard, and make a HUGE difference. Everyone is amazed at what my 3 year old eats. It’s nothing amazing, it’s what should be the norm.

I am so hooked on Dr Mark's podcasts, this stuff is so educational and informative! It bodes well with what I learn from the Wellness Company, its all about health, the testimonies are remarkable!

On the topic of vaccines, it's not so much the individual vaccine, it is the number that the pediatricians require at one time. We had to fire our daughter's pediatrician because they refused to spread out the vaccine schedule. Fortunately, we were able to find an office that was willing to spread out the schedule.

[@gigibrown_wright]

The dirty looks and sneers I would get from my children’s pediatrician for not allowing them to give 5 vaccines at one time was constant. Then when I refused to give them a flu vaccine she about pooped her pants! She says.. can I ask why you’re refusing, I said they don’t need it!

I remember meeting Dr Song at her first IFM convention! Bravo ! She's really taken off! I'd love to hear an interview with the subject of bariatrics. I'm finding patients who are NOT being told the truth of their future, post surgery! With several surgical options, how are we as practitioners supposed to help them? Their doctors and surgeons are not fully giving them information and with a compromised digestive tract, how exactly can we help them. So little help for such radical procedures and serious vitamin, mineral, EFA deficiencies! Oi!! These people need our help!! Please address this need!

My father was a doctor and he used to talk about the vagus nerve and I never paid attention to his words. I am not a doctor or anything scientific, but I now know he was on to something important.

[@kikimich]

Thank you! As a mother of 2 young children, this discussion was so impactful and encouraging. I, and some other core mom friends, have been educating ourselves on how to best nourish our families. It's a crazy world out there... Also, the vaccine talk was SO refreshing. Why can't we civilly discuss the pros and cons?? My husband and I 'went against the grain' and created a customized schedule for our kids. Zero regrets.

[@GenkiSugiru]

Excellent discussion between Dr. Hyman and Dr. Song. This is how I wish more medical doctors would provide health and wellness care to their patients. Just like these two doctors, it amazes me how sick kids are these days, compared to when I was a kid and almost no one had autism or severe allergies. Maybe there would be a rare case of asthma or hay fever here or there, but that's about it. And peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were the number one lunch kids brought from home to school 50 years ago. I think the number of vaccine doses kids are given these days has much to do with the deterioration in kids' health, as does the proliferation of ultra-processed foods.

[@RSJ1947]

Let food be thy medicine is one the oldest quotes whether or not Hippocrates said it. We moved far from basics and are reaping what we had sown. I am glad nutrition is gaining importance but it is costly affair to eat right for most people. Not realizing they wouldn't spend at doctor's office later in life if they took charge now.

[@lorigarner5725]

This is hear breaking to listen to. You guys are so right. I teach pre k in a Charter school. It is so sad when i look at the food the kiddos eat. I wish the parents would just change their diet. They just don't realize how much thier behavior will change. It's so sad to watch.

[@mayawidyasari6827]

My mom (GP) wanted to give my baby antibiotics before he is 6 months old. And I fought her like crazy. That is the genesis of my trouble. She afraid her grandson will have earache and become deaf. And her solution is always antibiotics. I bring my son to a rational used of medicine peditrician btw, so he saved.

[@breathnstop]

Thats because grandma remembers how many children died or got brain abcesses or meningitis before antibiotics. It's a balance not either or. Don't be so anti antibiotics you put your child in harms way.just be prudent.

[@mayawidyasari6827]

@@breathnstop Yes, my RUM pediatrician have a techniques to avoid earache. And true, high fever can cause brain damage and an earache could make u deaf and no available options before except given kids antibiotics.

[@juliescott4271]

More pressure should be applied to governments on food labelling but also more taxes on unhealthy food and much less in healthy foods. Hopefully communities are getting better at shared garden spaces and education on growing your own seasonal vegetables& herbs. Educating our kids on growing food, cooking and developing healthy relationships with good healthy food. But also so important is healthy mind sets around food and lifestyle.

I ate terrible as a kid . My kids ate terrible and my grandkids do the same . It's generational . I don't see how you can break the cycle . Especially how poor eating habits are promoted on all media platforms . Our holidays are based on unhealthy eating . I radically changed my diet in my early 50s because I did not want to go on medication. Kids have to be scared . Kind of like that show a long time ago called scared straight taking troubled kids to see what jail was like but today they need to see what poor eating habits look like .

[@KJSvitko]

It is just crazy that Doctors do not get nutrition training in Medical schools. Every doctor visit should include some nutrition discussion. The majority of the population is over weight or obese leading to high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer. Schools and hospital cafeterias should be leading the way to good health by setting the example of what is a healthy meal and teaching people what to eat and why.. Every person in the hospital for heart disease should have a nutrition class before being checked out from the hospital with follow up education and training in nutrition. Medicare and Medicaid should require patient nutrition education as part of their standard of care. Nutrition information should be run on the hospital TV channel.

[@bchristine58]

THANK YOU for discussing vaccines! Although I don't totally agree with everything said, I think both Dr. Hyman and Dr. Song made some very good points.

[@wakuwaku-]

Yes, we packed lunch for our kids, avoid processed foods, junk / fast foods, airplane/ airport foods, etc. etc. Succeeded healthy now adults children with no chronic physical / mental illnesses with strong immune system all around. Unfortunately, it is difficult to help my patients, young / old... to educate parents to deal with the sad results of generational bad foods / lack of accurate food education. Many patients still believe vegan or vegetarian diets are healthier... with so many of ADHD/ADD, OCD, depression, anxiety prone youth ... due to this eating disorders... continue to create obesity, diabetic illnesses...and early onset of dementia.

I dont even let my vet give my cat a bunch of vaccines all at once, i space them out. Mainly because i am worried about an overload of the preservatives in the vaccines. I decide which vaccine is most important, like what is my cat most likely to be exposed to. And thats the first vaccine i choose. My vet has a shot now that has all the vaccines in one shot, i want to know if that means less preservatives or more.

The Microbiome is an internal microcosm. It is a reflection of the state of health of our communities as a species. The dominant organizing principles of the last several centuries have been systemically anti-relational and anti-communal. What we see internally in children, adults, pets, all species, as well as externally in ecosystems, populations, species, etc, is all there to point out a dysfunctional worldview or paradigm that we need to step away from immediately if we are to rebalance and survive.

It would be interesting to study kids from different countries.

One other theory for the microbiome of today's breastfeed baby now being in line with the formula fed baby 100 years ago may be that the nursing mother herself was not breastfed...as was the case with myself.
