I was a funeral director for a few years and I remember a time when a family member of a decedent was waiting to go into an arrangement, they came up to me after I had finished up with a family and told me it was incredibly unprofessional of our funeral home staff to be laughing in the back room while there were families waiting to be seen. I checked in the office and there was only one other funeral director quietly working back there. I realized that the he had overheard an arrangement in the next room where the family was laughing and sharing wonderful stories of their loved one. Everyone grieves differently. Some find it a relief that their loved one is no longer in pain or want to celebrate that they had lived a beautiful, full life. For others it can be incredibly traumatizing and joy is sucked out of life for a long time. It can be so hard when someone you love dies and the world doesn't stop, just yours does.
I guess few people could have said it better. Even those who have felt that pain firsthand, we have a hard time truly putting words to the feelings and experiences one goes through after losing someone far too young at just the worst possible time. And yes it can be very different when losing someone elderly. And I can't say it can exactly ever really be any easier. Just what you said, people experience it differently, and process it differently. Absolutely, thank you. It really fucking sucks when people simply don't understand.
I completely understand, my daughter laughs at awkward occasions (to her sadness is awkward as she said). She even laughs when she gets really hurt. But I try to teach her that she has to try to control it because how she feels shouldn't be a priority to express, especially since someone is going through hell (emotionally). I told her, "Imagine a guy cheats on you and he starts laughing about it. Would you be ok and let it go?!" She told me she gets it and she is slowly trying to change that. One thing that many of us are forgetting is humanity, we need each other so why not think about others before ourselves. Also, think about situations where it could affect you and how it could affect others as well. Trust me, if people really want to change their habits, they could...they just don't want to. Anger gives consequences, but compassion is free.
I'll be honest, I avoided Dr. Mike's stuff online BECAUSE he was a pretty face and I assumed he was using it for his own fame and prosperity. I trust your selection of guests, so I watched, and I'm glad I had this opportunity to hear Dr. Mike's heart.
Y'know, Mike, you may not have made any life-long friends during medical school, but you've created a huge community of souls who appreciate the efforts you've made to clear up missconceptions ... and sprinkled humour throughout.
When Steven asks questions like "If I were a fly on that wall in that household at that time, what would I have observed?" that's what sets him apart. Listens, responds, gives the guests breathing room to think and respond without filling up every moment with noise. It's really an amazing and highly respectable talent.
I lost my dad to cancer just this past may one week after my birthday. He had single cell prostate cancer. I was the only one who stayed bedside with him. My fiancé was so amazing and watched my kids at a hotel while I stayed bedside with him. It was terrible to watch but I knew he needed someone, anyone. I am his only daughter and youngest out of 5, and I love my dad. His very last words were so faint compared to his usual healthy self, but I got to hear him say he loves me and that it something nobody can ever take away… but I wanted to type this and share it because I know the pain behind losing a parent to cancer and the heartbreak behind it. I too, felt the way dr Mike did. I heard people laughing moments after he was pronounced and it tore me up inside, but yes, I also understood the situation, however, understanding doesn’t stop the pain from occurring. Also, previously before he had passed and I was just sitting in the room keeping company, I had a dr approach me saying I didn’t have to stay and I could go home, etc. yes, I understood that, but obviously all I wanted was to be by my dad so he knew he was cared for and loved in his last moments. All I needed to hear was what I had heard from an older nurse, bless her heart, she sat with me for a moment and talked about going through the same situation I was sitting through and she said just being there, meant the world to him, even if he couldn’t express it. Just thinking about her saying that, makes me want to cry. She doesn’t realize it herself, but her saying that, has burned a permanent memory of the love people have when they pursue medicine in my brain. It’s to be there for the people. Not just to push in and push out patients to save time in between appointments..
Lost my father at the end of August to primarily pancreatic cancer, but end-result of blood clots in the lungs and heart.. I also was the only one by his side for the last 8 days of life once they stopped administering antibiotic, I got robbed of the ability to hear those words of "I love you" from him due to the worsening encephalopathy. But it makes me happy to hear other people got that special moment. Fk cancer.
@@vtwinbreedI'm so sorry for the loss of your dear dad. I learned the hard way how pancreatic cancer kills; it almost always does this by causing clots so it's usually a sudden passing, not like the movies where there are many lucid days to say goodbyes. It robs you of your ability to have a more complete closure with your loved one. 😢 Even tho my dad had said a lovely "I love you" the night before he passed, and I did too, I didn't know that exchange would be our last, as he was unexpectedly gone in the morning. I try to focus on the countless times we exchanged those words. The many moments we were there for each other. I hope you can too, it brings some peace to the hurting heart. 💝 ((hugs))
I think this should be titled different. There is very little discussion on the dangers of vaping but so much more to this conversation that people need to be aware of. Thank you for the insight of information.
I have worked in the theatre industry for 20 years and most haze/smoke machines uses the same main ingredient (propylene glycol) in vape juice, there are days where I spend 12 hours just breathing that stuff. I was hoping for more information from a doctor on individual health rather than effects on society of vaping.
I started the video and started scrolling and after what seemed like a hundred comments I finally found one about vaping and it’s this one talking about how vaping is hardly part of the video lol
People who can easily say, "I don't know" almost instantly earn my respect. At the very least I just appreciate it & is definitely a good 1st impression.
My favorite doctor would readily admit "I don't know" and would whip out the medicine reference book and look up the right meds & dosages right in front of me because as he said, " I can't possibly memorize all this stuff" 😂 (and he wanted to be sure to get it right!) I loved his candidness. I had a lot of faith in his ability to help & do no harm.
“Put on your shoes” that is literally a perfect simple way to put it! It’s so true, everything is a huge effort when you’re struggling mentally, but every effort can make a difference over time. And small things can make a bigger difference than you think if you give it the time to produce an effect.
Feeling like not exercising….. I would get dressed in my gym clothes and stay at home. Most days I would end up training. Get dressed, no pressure, no expectations and often it just happens. As he says don’t punish yourself for not being perfect.
@@Pippinlakewooddid you get your dog yet? I volunteer at a shelter and there are so many wonderful dogs who need homes. If you've got the love and time to give, they'll give it back to you X10 ❤
That's partially why people flock to quack solutions. They are promised guaranteed results. Uncertainty in the medical field serves the patients, it comes from a place of caring for the lifes of patients, care for risks and side effects, opportunity cost of care and therapy that might not work. That same uncertainty is met with annoyance, impatence, and sometimes anger from some people.
My dogs have been the single biggest impact on improving my mental health. Taking them to the park to play with other dogs is my favorite thing to do. I'm in tears now just typing this.
Our pets make us more authentically human. They are a daily object lesson in unconditional love, and by loving us they increase our capacity to love. It is usually true that you cannot buy love...but pets are the major exception. Go adopt a pet, and you have guaranteed love in your life. You get so much more than you give. It is no accident to me that "dog" is "god" spelled backward. Dogs (and other pets too, but dogs in particular) love as God Himself loves...without reservation. They give us a glimpse of heaven with their love. They are a real treasure. If we could be as good to one another as animals are to us (and one another too); the world would be a far better place! Enjoy your walks!❤🐾❤️🐾❤️👣👣👣👣
I don’t believe Dr. Mike has ever been as open and as vulnerable as he was in this interview. I’m very impressed, he is not just a pretty face. A few years ago and I saw him walking his dog, should have came up introduced myself.
Dr Mike is as honest as it gets and a very effective commentator. His ability to be humbled, take accountability and show vulnerability is remarkable ❤
True I like his ways as well... But he misquoted Gary Brecka, About Salt... so... It's speaks for itself Dr. Mike is also a victim of Misinformation himself
So true. He appears to he kind and respectful to ALL hcp's - even just the bottom CNA like myself. I've learned helpful things I could use from him they failed to teach me - on the job or in that class that certified me.
I love that Mike outed being in a phase where he’s falling off his exercise goals because of stressors. That’s so cool and relatable and human. And why I love Dr. Mike, in addition to his having a very sharp, balanced and honest intelligence.
My Human Biology lecturer at Uni used stories, analogies and humour to get the information across. Very very patient. I adored him. What a great guy. Really got you to understand.
I am a psychologist and have been working as a Clinical Communications Tutor at the Medical School, helping students and future doctors become more effective communicators with their patients, families, and co-workers. Dr. Mike is absolutely right-it's crucial to find ways to provide information to patients without overwhelming them. Simply being in a hospital or doctor's office is already a stressful experience that can hinder understanding. It's wonderful that we now have various platforms to share information and guidance in a clear and accessible manner, free from jargon.
I wish doctors did the simple thing of......writing things down. What would be even better is an info sheet/ infographic. I leave the doctor's office with medical terms and no understanding of what is wrong with me or my loved ones.
@Ana_Lev that is absolutely correct and the patient's perogative! The communication protocol - at least the one we utilise at the Uni also suggests that if you are sharing a ton of info, you should at least offer to provide some reading/viewing material for home.
My entire practice was explaining in layman’s terms to patients. Drawing out simple understandings about their condition. Leaving with a treatment plan in hand. Every patient understood, referrals were exponential, people became well because the root cause was addressed on a physical-emotional-spiritual level. Drop the ego and medical “speak” and connect with patients.
Watching this right now and had to share…I lost my brother to suicide in January this year and then got a puppy a month ago. She has pulled me out of the hole that I wasn’t able to pull myself out of. Dogs (and lots of other animals) really are therapy. Sometimes you don’t want to talk about it and you can just snuggle with your fluffy baby ❤
Congrats on getting a fur baby. My Rescue kitty fur baby has done so much for me in ways I can't describe. I've too lost loved ones as tragically as you. I hope you and your furry baby and you had a fun walk today. ❤
I can relate. I found my puppy during a difficult time. I didn’t want to get out of bed… but I would get up to take her out to potty. I didn’t want to eat… but I would make her food and might as well feed myself since I’m in the kitchen. Giving her a toy was all it took for me to smile because she would get soooo excited to play and I just couldn’t help but feel joy by seeing her bouncy, puppy joy. 💖 I’m glad you have your puppy and I hope her love radiates out to the rest of your life.
@@TheDiaryOfACEOthanks a lot for you amazing podcast and great guests. We really enjoy the conversations with such guests . I congratulate you on this great podcast
You’ve got to be kidding me. This guy is a paid shill. He doesn’t even address the basic premise of industry bias, which is paid for, or the defunct approval process for drugs, which is why so many harm people. I doubt he has anyone that’s he’s actually healed.
This man is an incredible hero. He’s not just a doctor. I’m listening to every word and I absolutely love everything you say I’m 61. I’ve lived a long time and he’s right about everything. He’s being so honest everybody just wants to make money and I believe that doctors get kicked back on a lot of these pharmaceuticals. That’s how something happened to me and now I’m not taking an anti-chemo because it could create another problem rather than just leave alone what I have. Thank you for always having the greatest program and yes, everybody needs to subscribe!!
Thank you again for showing the other side of the medical world. Listening to him has given me a better view on today’s doctors. Also in April, my stepson had a cardiac arrest in a movie theater. His friends noticed he was having a seizure which in turn was suffering a cardiac arrest. 2 seats down was a cardiac doctor and his fiancée who was a nurse. Immediately they began CPR while one of his friends called out for help. THANK YOU for showing how important CPR is and calling out!! He is alive and well today. ❤️🙏
The shoes and grooming thing are so true. In my darkest days I always cleaned and took care of my appearance and put on shoes and went out. I always felt better after. Now that life is amazing I look back and am thankful for each tough step I took.
I agree. I saw that in lots of people who started to get lazy with personal hygiene and proper dressing. This is like giving up yourself entirely. Every animal, even insects put so much effort into cleaning themselves and maintaining their appearance daily, that I always feel alarmed if i hear people say things like "i don't care how i look or if i shower daily, it's my body and I don't care what others think". It should not worry you what others think, but it should worry you that you don't think much about yourself. And nobody chooses how he looks, but you choose how you appear. Trying to make the best out of yourself is healthy for the mind, and being clean and wearing fresh clothes that look nice to you AND to others is beneficial. Even in elderly care, people who haven't given up on life demand from their nurses to clean them and give them fresh clothes. They sometimes don't even go out but want to appear well dressed on every day.
@@lars5288 This also applies to being poor. I see so many people just give up and live in filth. My grandparents were very poor but the house was clean and yard was always pickup up and nice. Every little step helps the journey. I think in the craziness of today’s world we have forgotten ourselves and our friends.
@@SnappyWasHereYes! We grew up poor, but our hardworking mother always made sure the house was spotless. I'm struggling now (same as everyone), but I always make sure to take care of my house and clothes and my vehicle.
Probably one of the most impactful interviews I’ve ever watched. I’m at a loss to describe the feelings evoked but every time he spoke of his mother, his experience, and you could see the pain it still brings him, it was difficult not to tear up. Thank you for having him on your show.
Probably one of my favorite episodes ever!! So much great information and so realistic. Sometimes, the guests on DOAC feel like they're salespeople. They're selling a lifestyle, a book, an idea, or something, and the tone of the conversation reflects that. This felt different. I am rethinking my relationship with supplements and really my health in general. So thank you!
He's still profiting off of his channel. Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
You're the best interviewer I have ever seen/heard in my life!! I feel so comfortable listening to the podcast because its not rushed or fake. It's just very natural A relaxed atmosphere. In a world where everything is so rushed its nice to sit and relax and enjoy listening. Thank you
The distrust of science, doctors and the medical field, and growing medical misinformation since the pandemic has been very discouraging for me. Hearing Dr. Mike and his passion for good, thoughtful, honest health promotion in this interview brought me to tears. Thank you for having him.
Hey, remember during the pandemic when Dr Mike went and had a huge beach/sea/lake party, unmasked, with a large group of people? And then had to do an apology video? I do. Never believed him the same way again.
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
My father passed away suddenly from a heart attack at home when I was 14. I handled the situation very similarly to Dr. Mike. I started taking care of my mother during her grief and it was the only time I ever saw her cry. I think the only thing back then that truly helped me with my grief was my horseback lessons. Horseback was something my dad always took me to since I started in middle school. Looking back now it gave me both a motivation to leave the house and animal therapy. If I didn't have horseback I would have just gone to school and then gone home. We had just moved states before he passed so I was in a brand new large high school where I knew no one. So I had no friends yet to lean on. So as sad as it sounds the horses were my friends. I always talked to the horses while brushing them and tacking them up. Sometimes about nonsense, but sometimes about my day/week. I would not say it alone healed me, but time has. I'm 28 now. I fully agree with Dr. Mike put your shoes on and go outside, find a hobby you love, a motivation to leave the house. It is so easy to stew with your thoughts and feelings in your own home. It's harder to do so somewhere in public while doing an activity. And if you are interested in animals for therapy there are ways to do so. Horseback was mine, and owning and taking care of a pet was Dr. Mike and his father. If neither of those interests you, you could volunteer at a shelter or be a dog walker for your community as other options as well.
I felt that so deeply, My grandmother passed away from heart failure. It went from, “yes she’s going well. Her vitals are strong “ To telling them to stop chest compression. It would’ve been so easy to be anger, but I thanked the staff for everything they did for her. Life can be cruel, but we have to find that light. 💜💜💜 Love DR, Mike 💜🫡🩺
I have reach a time in my life where listening to you guys in a podcast opens up so many thoughts in my mind as to how i can do better, Not only with my own ;life, but my children. The whole Family. I am 84 this year I am on no meds. Looking to go another 36 years, and you have no idea how much you are helping me. Thank You both so much.
I like listening Dr. Mike when he's jokingly giving info on his channel or serious like here. I feel he's always weighing his words carefully not to spread misinformation and I appreciate that. Great conversation ❤
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
So unfortunate how your mother passed from complications of the exact medications that cured the cancer. Thank you for having that heartbreak turn you towards sharing truth in such a kind way with others. We appreciate you Dr. Mike ❤
I've watched Dr Mike & Bear for years. I love that he explains typically complicated diagnostic information & medical information in everyday understanable terms. As an RN I always tried my level best to meet my patients at their level of understanding.
I could have listened to this all day! What a REAL n HONEST conversation! I have never heard of this gentleman and you can bet he is now on my podcast rotation as CEO is. The common sense and rational balance talk Dr. Mike speaks is, well 🤯. I have completed LOST my faith in the medical professionals and community being treated HORRIBLE by so many drs. At 62 I grabbed a bit of hope back listening to him. Bless his soul 🙏🙏🙏
i have been following his youtube channel for some years now, you might want to check him out, i believe he is really honest and science-based. the second one i recommend is the cardiologist dr. Francis Rohin ("Medlife Crisis") ❤ lots of love and good health to you 😊
There are good ones, like Dr Mike which I follow for years. I am a nurse myself and I know how unfair and at time healthcare experiences can be (even I as a nurse had horrible experiences) but all that show not move us away from quality care medicine. You got this!
I suffered an iatrogenic illness and saw 17 doctors and other medical professionals over the span of a year and a half. I was at the point where I had lost faith in all doctors, especially since I was ill because of a mistake a doctor made and adverse reactions which happened as a result from the other doctors I saw afterwards. I came across Dr. Mike's videos during the time I was bedridden and just hearing his empathy and knowledge gave me faith that there are good doctors out there who genuinely care and want to help. He says things as it is. He investigates things, isn't afraid to be proven wrong and seems like he tries to put himself in the shoes of the patients. He's how doctors should be.
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
I have been watching Dr Mike for years and as a nurse, I love to see the debunking sessions. Dr Mike comes across as a genuine person and I think he is a great guy. My 10yo daughter loves watching him too, he makes his content so adaptable to all ages. Thanks again Steven another quality podcast ❤
He's not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
I had the same thing happen as you described about hospital staff laughing, talking about their weekend, etc. as my partner of 26 years and father of my children lay dying in a medically induced coma. You are a better human than myself as I went ballistic on them. I told them they needed to be more professional and described what a wonderful person that body lying in that bed was. They were apologetic and I thanked them for their apology and understanding. In my defense, I was in an extremely fragile, emotional state… Angry, sad, scared, you name it, and I was it.
Same thing happens with dispatchers and firefighters bro I was a dispatcher and talked to firefighters, the simple matter of fact is these are people too and they can’t be expected to be sorrowful all day everyday at their job, its not personal and they all understand why it makes people upset, but we still don’t wanna be depressed all day long either.
They were professional! These people are confronted with death daily. Having and maintaining a distance to this and communicating with colleagues about private life and future plans is very healthy. I would be feared if anyone would be depressed and mourning, not smiling, not laughing. People should get beyond the idea that people in intensive or Palliative care are dedicated to every single patient personally. They are dedicated to work professionally, no matter who lays there. And that needs distance. What is for you a personal drama, is their daily work. Did they make any mistakes in treatment of a patient? If not, then let them be humans.
RN here…We MUST take a step back while caring for patients…all that we see…death death death. We all have PTSD so if we didn’t take a step back emotionally-we would not exist. Everyone deserves compassion and understanding by walking in their shoes. I’m sorry for you’re loss
I felt the same way when my grandma was in agony screaming in pain and they were outside laughing telling me she’ll be fine. She passed way “unexpectedly” several days later …a day before she was supposed to be discharged everyone in the staff was shocked. Not the nurses fault but it did hurt to experience and felt like they didn’t care. I quote unexpectedly because I knew it was coming since she was getting so sleepy and couldn’t even stay awake and she didn’t know why but the nurses and doctors didn’t think it was an issue. But it’s true you have to desensitize to work that kind of environment every day.
🙂 WOW you got my favourite Doctor sitting with my favourite CEO in one place! 🙂 This world needs more precious people like you. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME.
Love Dr. Mike! I love to watch his debates, it's a breath of fresh air to have content creators like him actively fighting misinformation. We need more people like him.
He's not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
@maggiepie8810 if this is your first exposure to Diary of a CEO it's one of the best podcasts on the internet. Steven is one of the best interviewers and they get the best guests. You will often hear the guests say "I've never cried on a podcast before"
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, alcoholism, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Switzerland. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
I'm a psychotherapist specialised in weight and body image issues. Exercise doesn't make you lose weight but it puts you in a better place to make some lifestyle changes. Over the years I have found out that the most difficult things on our way to a healthier weight are our beliefs and habits.
It will make you lose weight but it's minimal. The bulk of weight loss is from diet. Exercise is good for everything else, heart health, brain health, respiratory health and it gives you an amazing sense of achievement. If youre looking for weight loss through exercise the best thing you can do is resistance training.
Ikr, #1 promo clip I think was "calories in, calories out is true". Go for a run and you will burn more energy faster, i.e., calories. All else remaining equal, the more you run, the more weight you will lose. Does it really need to be debated in 2024?
Building muscle increases your resting metabolic rate by taking in more glycogen, meaning it goes from the mitochondria into the muscle fibers instead of remaining glucose and being converted into fat. Because of this increased energy need, the fat is then converted to be used by the mitochondria for energy. This is also why building muscle reverses insuline resistance. More muscle to take up sugar means less sugar in your bloodstream, covering your red blood cells prohibiting them from carrying oxygen. Therefore, your pancreas secretes less insuline because your body isn't freaking out about possibly not getting oxygen because you ate a twinkie. So yes, exercise definitely helps you lose weight. The real issue is people tend to overeat when they start working out because our bodies freak out and think we're now starving, so get hungier. If people allow 21 days for the body to adjust to the higher performance, they will start burning fat. But if they increase food intake before their body has adjusted, they won't lose weight. It's the difference between giving an addict methadone vs. cold turkey. Cold turkey is definitely more effective, but methadone feels easier.
I’m nearing my 70th birthday and I can honestly say that Dr. Mike teaches me something new every time I listen to him. He is a great communicator and has such empathy for people and he puts his life experiences to good use. He is one of the best interviewers I have ever seen. Blessings upon him.
I was introduced to Dr Mike channel by my son, who was 9 at the time. We watched it together and talked about Dr Mike, still do now in his teenage years. God Bless you Dr Mike, you are our hero.
If I only learned one thing from this podcast it was learning that when you're doing CPR that you may not save a life but you are stabilizing them until professionals arrive. Thank you so much Steven for this wonderful podcast ❤️🎉
Dr Mike talks about scientists and how they go about proving hypothesis by even trying to disprove them. Has he seen scientists do this or is he believing what he was told in medical school? He admits to corruption in big pharma, it is also a known fact that " science" and the paid scientists are part of that capitalistic corruption.
There’s very good reason for the drop in trust of doctors. My family has been burned by doctors and would have been burned several times more but thankfully my wife did the research and was able to understand what was happening, preventing much worse issues that the doctor was about to prescribe. We were gaslit really hard by a specialist that should have known better. I am very careful about which doctors to trust. Many are not up to date on the literature, and others are just trying to get us out of their office to get to the next patient rather than actually trying to address the real health issue.
I am glad you brought on board Dr.Mike for this interview session, Steven. Such an humble person he is with so much of knowledge. I respect a lot his dire passion to end the cycle of misinformation and feed people with the correct information. My respect for Dr. Mike just goes up after watching this podcast episode. Keep doing whatever you are doing for the goodness of the society. May God always bless you. Thank you for making this interview session happen, Steven!
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
I have been watching his stuff for a couple of years now, he's a good source of information, he's funny, and he has a great attitude. Definitely recommend subbing his channel, his critiques on Tik Tok medical trends, and his reviews of medical scenes in shows are my favourite videos he does, but it's all good.
I don't normally leave comments on RUclips but i just had to do so because while I obviously enjoyed the conversation and learned a lot as i always do when watching Dr. Mike or this podcast ,but I LOVED the part of the conversation on Dr.Mike's mother passing . I lost my father very suddenly and one of the things i believe saved me especially in the early stages of grief is walking my dog . Having the nessecety to put on shoes and walk my dog on the days i felt like isolating in my room was really life saving . I love the simplicity and truth of his Answers while being vulnerable is so refreshing and relatable.
Dr. Mike, fellow physician here. -Insidious misinformation sometimes is worse than outright disinformation - wow. Bravo. Hit the nail right on the head in such a succinctly medical way lol. What a truism there. Well done. Im going to steal that for my patients! Boy did you pin down a huge amount of thr problems today with that.
@TheDiaryOfACEO I know this wasn't the main focus of the video, but hearing Dr. Mike talking about the loss of his mother, and the advice, "Just put on your shoes" is probably the best advice I have ever heard. Having lost my mother in 2022, in a similarly traumatic way, I wish I had that advice when it happened. Hearing him say that, was a beautifully sad moment for me. Thank you for this podcast and the talks that you engage in.
Hi Dr Mike, I just wanted to say that you are such a kind, caring and amazing person. I've been watching your videos for a while now and i love them. You speak with such heart and You're so passionate about everything you talk about. You're so intelligent and knowledgeable. I love that you are being honest, informative and telling us the truth. I really respect you for that. On another note, you are super funny and I love that you make medicine and everything medical interesting and light hearted. Your videos make people laugh, entertain you, pay attention and want to watch you. You're the Whole package. I think you're totally awesome. You're such a nice guy, so passionate and hilarious. Thank you Dr Mike xo
This was fabulous! As a Catholic priest I was surprised somewhat by how much thinking about and acting out those thoughts are similar to what you do as a doctor. How what I say and do will help my parishioners is paramount! Thank you Dr. Mike! Since your practice is very close to mine, I am sure that you have cared for, or will care for, my people. That makes me glad! Who knows, we may even have “mutual patients! I will include you in my daily prayers.
I saw it in the movie, that if you are depressed you have to get up in morning and made your bed. Less chance you will go back immediately or at all. For almost 20 years helping me when I'm depressed. Rest of the time is just a feeling i did something that day and looks like i have some control over my life 😅 so ridiculous so good. If you are depressed, get up in the morning and make your bed even if the rest of the room is like battlefield 😅
I frequently don't make my bed but making the effort to get dressed means that if I find myself wanting or needing to leave the house I am ready to go. Another thing that helps me is aiming to leave a clean sink with no dirty dishes, I don't always succeed but I try. Maybe I should add bed making to my routine :)
I’d be Dr Mike’s friend for sure. What a podcast…enlightening and informational. Open honesty that money can’t buy! Our journey shapes us and we, as a people, are better for his particular journey. 🙌🏼
Love your DOAC podcasts Steven. They have been a great escape for me these past 6 weeks. This was a rough one for me though at the end with the discussion of CPR reasons and the training occurred. Brought me right back to the trauma of the night my 22 year old son collapsed, me on phone with 911 and then doing CPR with 19 year old son until EMS arrived. Unable to revive, he died at home of bilateral pulmonary emboli from a DVT. Total shock. Thanks for discussing your grief tips DR Mike they will help. Had to pull car over to finish this one. It was a tear jerker. Will need to look into Dr Mikes talks more. GOD bless.
Just finished listening to the whole thing. Dr mike did a great job to express his mission and showing part of his vulnerability on the podcast. Especially he’s a critic of a good amount of guests from this podcast. Good job dr mike. 👍
I have so much respect and admiration for Dr Mike. I appreciate his honesty and integrity in who he is. Thank you for making such a positive impact to the world.
This podcast resonated with me more than any other I have watched on your channel. A really honest doctor saying it in layman's terms that everyone can understand and digest. His best advice was put on your shoes and go somewhere (I suggest get a dog and walk it twice a day) to improve your mental and physical health.
@DoctorMike embodies what health professionals should strive to be (ethical integrity), bridging the gap between medical and patients. Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring many more to continue on this mission
I'm adhd diagnosed almost 8 years now at 40, female. To answer that question Stephen....more people have an awareness, ie symptoms. More women have been diagnosed lately rather than males and the reason for this here in the UK is women,girls present differently to men,males. So boys especially in the 70's, 80's and 90's where easier to spot with predominantly hyper rather than the day dreaming girls. I only know this because I asked the same question last month to my adhd Dr. I've known 3 women in the last year ro be diagnosed and actually had other diagnosis. So women have even been misdiagnosed with things such has bpd, depression disorder, anxiety disorders rather than adhd and same with other neuro diverse things like autism.
This “you are on Tiktok so you think you have ADHD and ask for pills” stereotype drives me CRAAAAAZYYYY!!! So many doctors out there just give an opinion without knowing the conditions. Many doctors lack knowledge about what is affecting biological women and how they are affected. Even “common” things like ADHD and ASD. I don’t mean that this doctor is misogynistic by any mean but he probably doesn’t realize the gender biais in his field, the discrepancy in diagnosis for men and women (conditions over diagnosed for one gender and under diagnosed for the other) , that things are catching up and that there is still a lot of catching up to do. He’s talking about weightloss for example and no mention of thyroids, PCOS, and Lipedema that are affecting a LOT of women. Even ADHD causes more obesity for multi reasons that are still being researched. So many biological women with lipedema try the “calories in and out” and exercise and can’t lose weight and their condition makes them suffer (heavy legs, vein issues, bruising for no reason etc.). 1/12 women have it. Normally you need some kind of special surgery to get rid of it but apparently Ozempic helps with it … I bet my top dollar some women with Lipedema will use Ozempic and be accused of taking the easy way out and causing drug shortage.
I'm a psychology major student and I just had a class about ADHD. Although you are right, here in the U.S. it is still a huge problem in girls getting diagnosed. The reason for that is that boys show visual symptoms like hyperactivity and girls are more inattentive...you cannot see when a child is not paying attention unless you look for the signs (when the psychologist does their job correctly). I'm glad they are doing a better job over there, but here it's still a problem unfortunately.
Honestly love doctors trying to not use medication as a first option. My doctor knows that being on multiple medications, I hate being prescribed more and takes that into account. I like that he discusses all my options with me and lets me be involved in my health plan. He even took my recommendation when I suggested a specific medication for my narcolepsy because of some studies I showed him which made me feel like I had even a bit of control over my health
What a great episode. I've never heard of Dr.Mike before and I am so glad you brought him to us all. I am one of those everyday people who were going down the rabbit hole and falling pray to some of the misinformation out there even though I am a pretty intelligent person with a lot of common sense. After starting to treat my clinical depression I am slowly coming back to my senses ( weird by product of treating my depression, not expected this effect) and have stopped with the gazillion supplements, and tests and am back to a more balanced common sense approach to my health. Dr.Mike's views and opinions really resonate with me and make perfect sense to me. He's got one more fan in me. Thank you for the great podcast and the CPR refresher.
He's not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
YES!! My two favourite RUclips people combined! 💃🎉 I love how Dr. Mike answered the question about corruption in pharma. It’s easy to become disheartened when we hear about negative instances but discarding an ENTIRE profession, especially one that holds itself to such high objective standards, would be a loss to ourselves as individuals and society as a whole. Think of all the medical advances that have increased our longevity in the past 100 years! We have science and the rigours of scientific research to thank!
I walk in my local forest, partly to enjoy the forest but mostly to say hello to all my doggy friends. I've made some friends among their owners too! It has helped me deal with my loss, even though I had to explain my partner's absence...which was so hard...we shared some tears and some laughter.
Great episode ,getting better, brighter guests as promised !😊 Could we have someone clued up about the past 4years? and the massive increase in sudden unexplained deaths and turbo cancers ? Mike yeadon would be amazing !!but there are plenty out there now brave enough to speak out .im sure you wont get cancelled for having a genuine guest on sharing facts.
Im so so blessed to be quiet healthy, I'm 48, I have 2 friends going through cancer and all I want to do is learn, when I'm at appointments with them, I want to understand what the consultant is saying, want to try to understand the treatment they will be getting, what are the benefits and side effects. We all should try to understand & take more control of our health
Don't remember that this is learning through the scope of a few doctors that have probably been biased with modern western medicine (not saying it's all bad or anything of course) though. But it's definitely much better than simply saying "ok please do it" to anything for sure !
This whole interview was pure gold, so much useful advice. It’s truly great seeing a Dr making its best efforts to teach people, and having so much compassion for people. Thank you both ✨
Amazing. I enjoy Dr. Mike. But he made me a big fan today. The truth will free you. He reminded me that medicine is a practice not a perfect. Hey so is life. Your questions were appropriate and he picked up and stretched topics to be so insightful. Now I am subscribing to your site too. His advice was genuine, logical and not hysterical. What a gem. Now I need to see who else you have talk. Thanks.
OMG!!! So glad to see Doctormike on your show!!! I was waiting for this, i knew it’s gonna happen soon!!! Thanks! He’s amazing, you’re amazing, GREAT combo! Congrats!!!🎉 👏🏼❤️
This explains why it’s such a good thing to remove the aesthetic focus from exercise. I have struggled with and ED and still feel bad for not going to the gym every day if I wanna “lose weight” or look good. But exercising for strength, increasing my QOL, reducing disease risk, all of these reasons are so much more motivating and are reasons why we should WANT to work out…and I think exercise should be explained in that holistic way. Not as a punishment for eating/the way we look
Next IDEA 💡 being two guests that presented contradicting ideas and have them discuss what they believe and why… and bring evidence… TRUE science discussion & lesson happening live 🙌
The impact of Dr. Mikes's work is immeasurable. Though the silent majority often remains quiet, their gratitude resonates deeply, radiating out into the universe. In your tranquil moments, Dr. Mike, feel the love: it's present with a resounding volume, despite the silence...
Agreed. All of us quietly enjoying the amazing content from people like these two aren’t heard, but all the hateful, bitter, angry people are screaming non-stop. Please believe that there are a thousand people quietly enjoying for every loud hater.
He has spread misinformation himself in the past quite a few times because of being ill-informed or not educated enough in the field of medicine he was talking about. The silent majority that call him out on this are quiet because he deletes their comments or manipulates his audience to believe he's the right one by pointing at 1 research that supports his claims while the 1000s others don't. The fault is with people like you who don't cross verify what these fame hungry influencers say. You do this with other things and people too and then blame the state of the economy on the govt or the previous/current generation. Messed up.
Anti aging needs to start when you are young,not when you are old already, Don't dtink alcohol and don't use drugs. You czn not stop aging unless you die. But you can slow down the degradation of the body by not drinking or drugging. Exercise is also the way to slow the effects of aging, but aging can not be stopped or reversed. You can not turn back time.
There’s still such a thing as one’s “biological age”. Even on an organ-to-organ level. It can be pinpointed and be “reversed” by diet/lifestyle. Also, Bryan Johnson.
Looking younger than your age absolutely has to start in your youth. Your lifestyle choices determine how well you will age, so the earlier the better. Avoid processed foods, avoid alcohol, avoid drugs, avoid excessive sun AND sun screen, avoid wearing foundation, drink clean water, have a healthy bodyweight, exercise, keep stress low, and get adequate sleep. That will do wonders. I had my first facial at 42.. The girl demanded to know what I do because, aftwr looking at my face under a blue light, she said there was nothing for her to do. She kept thinking I had to be using some mysterious Skincare routine. No, just soap and an oil (any oil) for moisturizing. Skin health comes from internal health.
I was a hardcore drug user for almost 30 years..... I've been off the hard stuff completely for over 2 years.... but I still use Cannabis and Psilocybin for anxiety and depression. For years people used to warn me of aging early..... One thing I didn't do, was DRINK! I used other things instead.... but I'm on the spectrum and studied the shit out whatever I would use. Well, here we are all these years later, and I'm in better shape than any of the people that used to say that to me. It's really all about being smart about your use. Study contraindications... study mechanism of action of all the substances.... and you don't have to live an ascetic lifestyle to be healthy.
@@JustJenLive The earlier the better, absolutely, yes. I agree with you immensely on what you wrote, except you CAN change the course of how you look, no matter how late, just as how you can feel. Keep promoting how.
I watch many of your videos and enjoy them, but this interview ranks as one of the very best. Thanks to both of you for such informative and sensible content.
So many points resonated in this episode. Loved that he had so much humility, vulnerability and care in his delivery. Genesis (my dog) has been in my life for 8 years and as someone with anxiety, her support has done wonders for my emotional and physical health.

I was a funeral director for a few years and I remember a time when a family member of a decedent was waiting to go into an arrangement, they came up to me after I had finished up with a family and told me it was incredibly unprofessional of our funeral home staff to be laughing in the back room while there were families waiting to be seen. I checked in the office and there was only one other funeral director quietly working back there. I realized that the he had overheard an arrangement in the next room where the family was laughing and sharing wonderful stories of their loved one. Everyone grieves differently. Some find it a relief that their loved one is no longer in pain or want to celebrate that they had lived a beautiful, full life. For others it can be incredibly traumatizing and joy is sucked out of life for a long time. It can be so hard when someone you love dies and the world doesn't stop, just yours does.
Thank you for your insight
I guess few people could have said it better. Even those who have felt that pain firsthand, we have a hard time truly putting words to the feelings and experiences one goes through after losing someone far too young at just the worst possible time. And yes it can be very different when losing someone elderly. And I can't say it can exactly ever really be any easier. Just what you said, people experience it differently, and process it differently. Absolutely, thank you. It really fucking sucks when people simply don't understand.
I hate when customers jump to conclusions
I completely understand, my daughter laughs at awkward occasions (to her sadness is awkward as she said). She even laughs when she gets really hurt. But I try to teach her that she has to try to control it because how she feels shouldn't be a priority to express, especially since someone is going through hell (emotionally). I told her, "Imagine a guy cheats on you and he starts laughing about it. Would you be ok and let it go?!" She told me she gets it and she is slowly trying to change that. One thing that many of us are forgetting is humanity, we need each other so why not think about others before ourselves. Also, think about situations where it could affect you and how it could affect others as well. Trust me, if people really want to change their habits, they could...they just don't want to. Anger gives consequences, but compassion is free.
Lies again? Vigrx Plus Doctor Ugly
I'll be honest, I avoided Dr. Mike's stuff online BECAUSE he was a pretty face and I assumed he was using it for his own fame and prosperity. I trust your selection of guests, so I watched, and I'm glad I had this opportunity to hear Dr. Mike's heart.
Y'know, Mike, you may not have made any life-long friends during medical school, but you've created a huge community of souls who appreciate the efforts you've made to clear up missconceptions ... and sprinkled humour throughout.

After Covid don’t believe the science
When Steven asks questions like "If I were a fly on that wall in that household at that time, what would I have observed?" that's what sets him apart. Listens, responds, gives the guests breathing room to think and respond without filling up every moment with noise. It's really an amazing and highly respectable talent.
I lost my dad to cancer just this past may one week after my birthday. He had single cell prostate cancer. I was the only one who stayed bedside with him. My fiancé was so amazing and watched my kids at a hotel while I stayed bedside with him. It was terrible to watch but I knew he needed someone, anyone. I am his only daughter and youngest out of 5, and I love my dad. His very last words were so faint compared to his usual healthy self, but I got to hear him say he loves me and that it something nobody can ever take away… but I wanted to type this and share it because I know the pain behind losing a parent to cancer and the heartbreak behind it. I too, felt the way dr Mike did. I heard people laughing moments after he was pronounced and it tore me up inside, but yes, I also understood the situation, however, understanding doesn’t stop the pain from occurring. Also, previously before he had passed and I was just sitting in the room keeping company, I had a dr approach me saying I didn’t have to stay and I could go home, etc. yes, I understood that, but obviously all I wanted was to be by my dad so he knew he was cared for and loved in his last moments. All I needed to hear was what I had heard from an older nurse, bless her heart, she sat with me for a moment and talked about going through the same situation I was sitting through and she said just being there, meant the world to him, even if he couldn’t express it. Just thinking about her saying that, makes me want to cry. She doesn’t realize it herself, but her saying that, has burned a permanent memory of the love people have when they pursue medicine in my brain. It’s to be there for the people. Not just to push in and push out patients to save time in between appointments..
Lost my father at the end of August to primarily pancreatic cancer, but end-result of blood clots in the lungs and heart..
I also was the only one by his side for the last 8 days of life once they stopped administering antibiotic, I got robbed of the ability to hear those words of "I love you" from him due to the worsening encephalopathy. But it makes me happy to hear other people got that special moment. Fk cancer.
I am so sorry. You are so strong. Hugs to you and thank you for typing this.
@@vtwinbreedI'm so sorry for the loss of your dear dad. I learned the hard way how pancreatic cancer kills; it almost always does this by causing clots so it's usually a sudden passing, not like the movies where there are many lucid days to say goodbyes. It robs you of your ability to have a more complete closure with your loved one. 😢
Even tho my dad had said a lovely "I love you" the night before he passed, and I did too, I didn't know that exchange would be our last, as he was unexpectedly gone in the morning. I try to focus on the countless times we exchanged those words. The many moments we were there for each other. I hope you can too, it brings some peace to the hurting heart. 💝 ((hugs))

Disagree.
I think this should be titled different. There is very little discussion on the dangers of vaping but so much more to this conversation that people need to be aware of.
Thank you for the insight of information.
36.00 in.
100% right. Sent it to someone and said not interested in vaping topic
There’s about 45 seconds where he says it’s better than smoking? Is that it?
I have worked in the theatre industry for 20 years and most haze/smoke machines uses the same main ingredient (propylene glycol) in vape juice, there are days where I spend 12 hours just breathing that stuff.
I was hoping for more information from a doctor on individual health rather than effects on society of vaping.
I started the video and started scrolling and after what seemed like a hundred comments I finally found one about vaping and it’s this one talking about how vaping is hardly part of the video lol
People who can easily say, "I don't know" almost instantly earn my respect. At the very least I just appreciate it & is definitely a good 1st impression.
Check out Dr. Mike’s Ted talk in Monaco 🙌🏻 he earned my respect then
But we then say, "let's find out"
My favorite doctor would readily admit "I don't know" and would whip out the medicine reference book and look up the right meds & dosages right in front of me because as he said, " I can't possibly memorize all this stuff" 😂 (and he wanted to be sure to get it right!) I loved his candidness. I had a lot of faith in his ability to help & do no harm.
“Put on your shoes” that is literally a perfect simple way to put it! It’s so true, everything is a huge effort when you’re struggling mentally, but every effort can make a difference over time. And small things can make a bigger difference than you think if you give it the time to produce an effect.
This is why I’m getting a dog, to help me get out of the house and exercise while I’m at it
At one point I had to put on my shoes and walk to coffee, that was the goal. Slowly I added more and crawled out of my misery
Feeling like not exercising….. I would get dressed in my gym clothes and stay at home. Most days I would end up training. Get dressed, no pressure, no expectations and often it just happens. As he says don’t punish yourself for not being perfect.
@@Pippinlakewooddid you get your dog yet? I volunteer at a shelter and there are so many wonderful dogs who need homes. If you've got the love and time to give, they'll give it back to you X10 ❤
"The reality is that we just don't know."
Honesty can be frustrating some times but it's usually the best option in the long run.
That's partially why people flock to quack solutions. They are promised guaranteed results.
Uncertainty in the medical field serves the patients, it comes from a place of caring for the lifes of patients, care for risks and side effects, opportunity cost of care and therapy that might not work. That same uncertainty is met with annoyance, impatence, and sometimes anger from some people.

@@gabrielamcb9157 Thank you for missing the point entirely, guess I'll go off myself.
Our pets make us more authentically human. They are a daily object lesson in unconditional love, and by loving us they increase our capacity to love. It is usually true that you cannot buy love...but pets are the major exception. Go adopt a pet, and you have guaranteed love in your life. You get so much more than you give. It is no accident to me that "dog" is "god" spelled backward. Dogs (and other pets too, but dogs in particular) love as God Himself loves...without reservation. They give us a glimpse of heaven with their love. They are a real treasure. If we could be as good to one another as animals are to us (and one another too); the world would be a far better place! Enjoy your walks!❤🐾❤️🐾❤️👣👣👣👣
@@merodobsondon't feed the trolls. They aren't worth it. Enjoy your dogs, and love like they do!❤
@@gabrielamcb9157what a stupid and cold out of context comment.
I don’t believe Dr. Mike has ever been as open and as vulnerable as he was in this interview. I’m very impressed, he is not just a pretty face.
A few years ago and I saw him walking his dog, should have came up introduced myself.
Dr Mike is as honest as it gets and a very effective commentator. His ability to be humbled, take accountability and show vulnerability is remarkable ❤
True I like his ways as well... But he misquoted Gary Brecka, About Salt... so... It's speaks for itself
Dr. Mike is also a victim of Misinformation himself
So true. He appears to he kind and respectful to ALL hcp's - even just the bottom CNA like myself. I've learned helpful things I could use from him they failed to teach me - on the job or in that class that certified me.
He's a big pharma shill
I love that Mike outed being in a phase where he’s falling off his exercise goals because of stressors. That’s so cool and relatable and human. And why I love Dr. Mike, in addition to his having a very sharp, balanced and honest intelligence.
My Human Biology lecturer at Uni used stories, analogies and humour to get the information across. Very very patient. I adored him. What a great guy. Really got you to understand.
I am a psychologist and have been working as a Clinical Communications Tutor at the Medical School, helping students and future doctors become more effective communicators with their patients, families, and co-workers. Dr. Mike is absolutely right-it's crucial to find ways to provide information to patients without overwhelming them. Simply being in a hospital or doctor's office is already a stressful experience that can hinder understanding. It's wonderful that we now have various platforms to share information and guidance in a clear and accessible manner, free from jargon.
I wish doctors did the simple thing of......writing things down. What would be even better is an info sheet/ infographic. I leave the doctor's office with medical terms and no understanding of what is wrong with me or my loved ones.
I haven't found a REAL platform that doesn't ask for payment to get it...they are as bad as lawyers
@Ana_Lev that is absolutely correct and the patient's perogative! The communication protocol - at least the one we utilise at the Uni also suggests that if you are sharing a ton of info, you should at least offer to provide some reading/viewing material for home.
My entire practice was explaining in layman’s terms to patients. Drawing out simple understandings about their condition. Leaving with a treatment plan in hand. Every patient understood, referrals were exponential, people became well because the root cause was addressed on a physical-emotional-spiritual level. Drop the ego and medical “speak” and connect with patients.
This is absolutely how I practiced.
Watching this right now and had to share…I lost my brother to suicide in January this year and then got a puppy a month ago. She has pulled me out of the hole that I wasn’t able to pull myself out of. Dogs (and lots of other animals) really are therapy. Sometimes you don’t want to talk about it and you can just snuggle with your fluffy baby ❤
Congrats on getting a fur baby. My Rescue kitty fur baby has done so much for me in ways I can't describe. I've too lost loved ones as tragically as you. I hope you and your furry baby and you had a fun walk today. ❤
@RondeeDesigns, Sorry for your loss! I’m glad your got a fur baby!
I can relate. I found my puppy during a difficult time. I didn’t want to get out of bed… but I would get up to take her out to potty. I didn’t want to eat… but I would make her food and might as well feed myself since I’m in the kitchen. Giving her a toy was all it took for me to smile because she would get soooo excited to play and I just couldn’t help but feel joy by seeing her bouncy, puppy joy. 💖 I’m glad you have your puppy and I hope her love radiates out to the rest of your life.
My condolences on the loss of your brother. I lost someone dear to me to suicide and I hate it. Glad you’re taking care of yourself ❤

You’ve got to be kidding me. This guy is a paid shill. He doesn’t even address the basic premise of industry bias, which is paid for, or the defunct approval process for drugs, which is why so many harm people. I doubt he has anyone that’s he’s actually healed.
@@ZFabia2010
He's well respected, especially for certain vids, prime example (pun not intended) the lunchly issue that he talked about
This man is an incredible hero. He’s not just a doctor. I’m listening to every word and I absolutely love everything you say I’m 61. I’ve lived a long time and he’s right about everything. He’s being so honest everybody just wants to make money and I believe that doctors get kicked back on a lot of these pharmaceuticals.
That’s how something happened to me and now I’m not taking an anti-chemo because it could create another problem rather than just leave alone what I have.
Thank you for always having the greatest program and yes, everybody needs to subscribe!!
Here, a nurse in primary care, listening to dr mike from france for inspiration. Thanks to him.
Thank you again for showing the other side of the medical world. Listening to him has given me a better view on today’s doctors.
Also in April, my stepson had a cardiac arrest in a movie theater. His friends noticed he was having a seizure which in turn was suffering a cardiac arrest. 2 seats down was a cardiac doctor and his fiancée who was a nurse. Immediately they began CPR while one of his friends called out for help. THANK YOU for showing how important CPR is and calling out!!
He is alive and well today. ❤️🙏
Was it vax related?
The shoes and grooming thing are so true. In my darkest days I always cleaned and took care of my appearance and put on shoes and went out. I always felt better after. Now that life is amazing I look back and am thankful for each tough step I took.
I agree. I saw that in lots of people who started to get lazy with personal hygiene and proper dressing. This is like giving up yourself entirely. Every animal, even insects put so much effort into cleaning themselves and maintaining their appearance daily, that I always feel alarmed if i hear people say things like "i don't care how i look or if i shower daily, it's my body and I don't care what others think". It should not worry you what others think, but it should worry you that you don't think much about yourself. And nobody chooses how he looks, but you choose how you appear. Trying to make the best out of yourself is healthy for the mind, and being clean and wearing fresh clothes that look nice to you AND to others is beneficial. Even in elderly care, people who haven't given up on life demand from their nurses to clean them and give them fresh clothes. They sometimes don't even go out but want to appear well dressed on every day.
@@lars5288 This also applies to being poor. I see so many people just give up and live in filth. My grandparents were very poor but the house was clean and yard was always pickup up and nice. Every little step helps the journey. I think in the craziness of today’s world we have forgotten ourselves and our friends.
@@SnappyWasHereYes! We grew up poor, but our hardworking mother always made sure the house was spotless. I'm struggling now (same as everyone), but I always make sure to take care of my house and clothes and my vehicle.
Probably one of the most impactful interviews I’ve ever watched.
I’m at a loss to describe the feelings evoked but every time he spoke of his mother, his experience, and you could see the pain it still brings him, it was difficult not to tear up.
Thank you for having him on your show.
I'm absolutely in awe of Dr. mike, he's such a good articulate speaker and his patients are really lucky to have him. Great podcast, thanks Dr. Mike!
Probably one of my favorite episodes ever!! So much great information and so realistic. Sometimes, the guests on DOAC feel like they're salespeople. They're selling a lifestyle, a book, an idea, or something, and the tone of the conversation reflects that. This felt different. I am rethinking my relationship with supplements and really my health in general. So thank you!
Yes! This! I think that’s the evidence based approach. So happy you noticed it, too.
this guy is selling 😂 what are you on about
@@culturevulturepapi8948 selling what?
He's still profiting off of his channel. Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
You're the best interviewer I have ever seen/heard in my life!! I feel so comfortable listening to the podcast because its not rushed or fake. It's just very natural A relaxed atmosphere. In a world where everything is so rushed its nice to sit and relax and enjoy listening. Thank you
Yes I as just thinking. He doesn’t interrupt. Or change subject.
The distrust of science, doctors and the medical field, and growing medical misinformation since the pandemic has been very discouraging for me. Hearing Dr. Mike and his passion for good, thoughtful, honest health promotion in this interview brought me to tears. Thank you for having him.
You bought his act
Hey, remember during the pandemic when Dr Mike went and had a huge beach/sea/lake party, unmasked, with a large group of people? And then had to do an apology video?
I do.
Never believed him the same way again.

@@jleigh2570 I was sharing my personal response. Serves me right for commenting on social media I guess.
My father passed away suddenly from a heart attack at home when I was 14. I handled the situation very similarly to Dr. Mike. I started taking care of my mother during her grief and it was the only time I ever saw her cry. I think the only thing back then that truly helped me with my grief was my horseback lessons. Horseback was something my dad always took me to since I started in middle school. Looking back now it gave me both a motivation to leave the house and animal therapy. If I didn't have horseback I would have just gone to school and then gone home. We had just moved states before he passed so I was in a brand new large high school where I knew no one. So I had no friends yet to lean on. So as sad as it sounds the horses were my friends. I always talked to the horses while brushing them and tacking them up. Sometimes about nonsense, but sometimes about my day/week. I would not say it alone healed me, but time has. I'm 28 now. I fully agree with Dr. Mike put your shoes on and go outside, find a hobby you love, a motivation to leave the house. It is so easy to stew with your thoughts and feelings in your own home. It's harder to do so somewhere in public while doing an activity. And if you are interested in animals for therapy there are ways to do so. Horseback was mine, and owning and taking care of a pet was Dr. Mike and his father. If neither of those interests you, you could volunteer at a shelter or be a dog walker for your community as other options as well.
I felt that so deeply,
My grandmother passed away from heart failure.
It went from, “yes she’s going well. Her vitals are strong “
To telling them to stop chest compression.
It would’ve been so easy to be anger, but I thanked the staff for everything they did for her.
Life can be cruel, but we have to find that light. 💜💜💜
Love DR, Mike 💜🫡🩺
I have reach a time in my life where listening to you guys in a podcast opens up so many thoughts in my mind as to how i can do better, Not only with my own ;life, but my children. The whole Family. I am 84 this year I am on no meds. Looking to go another 36 years, and you have no idea how much you are helping me. Thank You both so much.
Dr Mike is so honest, his honesty makes you feel that as a human you have successes and failures but you just keep going.
The best. Such a real human.
I like listening Dr. Mike when he's jokingly giving info on his channel or serious like here. I feel he's always weighing his words carefully not to spread misinformation and I appreciate that.
Great conversation ❤
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
So unfortunate how your mother passed from complications of the exact medications that cured the cancer. Thank you for having that heartbreak turn you towards sharing truth in such a kind way with others. We appreciate you Dr. Mike ❤
I've watched Dr Mike & Bear for years. I love that he explains typically complicated diagnostic information & medical information in everyday understanable
terms. As an RN I always tried my level best to meet my patients at their level of understanding.
I could have listened to this all day! What a REAL n HONEST conversation! I have never heard of this gentleman and you can bet he is now on my podcast rotation as CEO is. The common sense and rational balance talk Dr. Mike speaks is, well 🤯. I have completed LOST my faith in the medical professionals and community being treated HORRIBLE by so many drs. At 62 I grabbed a bit of hope back listening to him. Bless his soul 🙏🙏🙏
i have been following his youtube channel for some years now, you might want to check him out, i believe he is really honest and science-based. the second one i recommend is the cardiologist dr. Francis Rohin ("Medlife Crisis") ❤ lots of love and good health to you 😊
There are good ones, like Dr Mike which I follow for years. I am a nurse myself and I know how unfair and at time healthcare experiences can be (even I as a nurse had horrible experiences) but all that show not move us away from quality care medicine. You got this!
I suffered an iatrogenic illness and saw 17 doctors and other medical professionals over the span of a year and a half. I was at the point where I had lost faith in all doctors, especially since I was ill because of a mistake a doctor made and adverse reactions which happened as a result from the other doctors I saw afterwards.
I came across Dr. Mike's videos during the time I was bedridden and just hearing his empathy and knowledge gave me faith that there are good doctors out there who genuinely care and want to help. He says things as it is. He investigates things, isn't afraid to be proven wrong and seems like he tries to put himself in the shoes of the patients.
He's how doctors should be.
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
I have been watching Dr Mike for years and as a nurse, I love to see the debunking sessions. Dr Mike comes across as a genuine person and I think he is a great guy. My 10yo daughter loves watching him too, he makes his content so adaptable to all ages. Thanks again Steven another quality podcast ❤
He's not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
I had the same thing happen as you described about hospital staff laughing, talking about their weekend, etc. as my partner of 26 years and father of my children lay dying in a medically induced coma. You are a better human than myself as I went ballistic on them. I told them they needed to be more professional and described what a wonderful person that body lying in that bed was. They were apologetic and I thanked them for their apology and understanding. In my defense, I was in an extremely fragile, emotional state… Angry, sad, scared, you name it, and I was it.
Same thing happens with dispatchers and firefighters bro I was a dispatcher and talked to firefighters, the simple matter of fact is these are people too and they can’t be expected to be sorrowful all day everyday at their job, its not personal and they all understand why it makes people upset, but we still don’t wanna be depressed all day long either.
They were professional! These people are confronted with death daily. Having and maintaining a distance to this and communicating with colleagues about private life and future plans is very healthy. I would be feared if anyone would be depressed and mourning, not smiling, not laughing. People should get beyond the idea that people in intensive or Palliative care are dedicated to every single patient personally. They are dedicated to work professionally, no matter who lays there. And that needs distance. What is for you a personal drama, is their daily work. Did they make any mistakes in treatment of a patient? If not, then let them be humans.
RN here…We MUST take a step back while caring for patients…all that we see…death death death. We all have PTSD so if we didn’t take a step back emotionally-we would not exist. Everyone deserves compassion and understanding by walking in their shoes. I’m sorry for you’re loss
I am so sorry you went through such a terrible and traumatic experience. I am sure they understood your grief. I hope you are at a better place now.
I felt the same way when my grandma was in agony screaming in pain and they were outside laughing telling me she’ll be fine. She passed way “unexpectedly” several days later …a day before she was supposed to be discharged everyone in the staff was shocked. Not the nurses fault but it did hurt to experience and felt like they didn’t care. I quote unexpectedly because I knew it was coming since she was getting so sleepy and couldn’t even stay awake and she didn’t know why but the nurses and doctors didn’t think it was an issue. But it’s true you have to desensitize to work that kind of environment every day.
I find it surprising how good and soft Dr. Mike voice is. Incredibly pleasant to listen to!
🙂 WOW you got my favourite Doctor sitting with my favourite CEO in one place! 🙂 This world needs more precious people like you. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME.
I love what he is saying. He is like my family Dr. She reluctantly prescribes medication, and says eat healthy, if you want vitamins.
Love Dr. Mike! I love to watch his debates, it's a breath of fresh air to have content creators like him actively fighting misinformation. We need more people like him.
He's not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
This is such an interesting podcast. Not only is Doctor Mike an amazing guest, but you're a great interviewer.
@maggiepie8810 if this is your first exposure to Diary of a CEO it's one of the best podcasts on the internet. Steven is one of the best interviewers and they get the best guests. You will often hear the guests say "I've never cried on a podcast before"
Doctor Mike is obsessed with only fan girls that have sex tapes. The new one is Lina belfiore
Two of my best podcasters in one episode and it was as good as an episode as I would have expected.
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, alcoholism, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Congrats on your recovery. Most people don't realize that psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Switzerland. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Thank you Dr. Mike for being a student of life and being vulnerable enough to share your journey.
I'm a psychotherapist specialised in weight and body image issues. Exercise doesn't make you lose weight but it puts you in a better place to make some lifestyle changes. Over the years I have found out that the most difficult things on our way to a healthier weight are our beliefs and habits.
Dude run 5 miles a day and no
Way in hell u WONT loose a weight! Have you seen a fat marathon runner ?
It will make you lose weight but it's minimal. The bulk of weight loss is from diet. Exercise is good for everything else, heart health, brain health, respiratory health and it gives you an amazing sense of achievement. If youre looking for weight loss through exercise the best thing you can do is resistance training.
What?!? 😂 exercise definitely helps you lose weight. You’re a therapist telling people this?!
Ikr, #1 promo clip I think was "calories in, calories out is true". Go for a run and you will burn more energy faster, i.e., calories. All else remaining equal, the more you run, the more weight you will lose. Does it really need to be debated in 2024?
Building muscle increases your resting metabolic rate by taking in more glycogen, meaning it goes from the mitochondria into the muscle fibers instead of remaining glucose and being converted into fat. Because of this increased energy need, the fat is then converted to be used by the mitochondria for energy. This is also why building muscle reverses insuline resistance. More muscle to take up sugar means less sugar in your bloodstream, covering your red blood cells prohibiting them from carrying oxygen. Therefore, your pancreas secretes less insuline because your body isn't freaking out about possibly not getting oxygen because you ate a twinkie. So yes, exercise definitely helps you lose weight. The real issue is people tend to overeat when they start working out because our bodies freak out and think we're now starving, so get hungier. If people allow 21 days for the body to adjust to the higher performance, they will start burning fat. But if they increase food intake before their body has adjusted, they won't lose weight. It's the difference between giving an addict methadone vs. cold turkey. Cold turkey is definitely more effective, but methadone feels easier.
I think this is one of your best interviews. I have never seen Mike so vulnerable and I think your ability to connect plays a big part in that.
I’m nearing my 70th birthday and I can honestly say that Dr. Mike teaches me something new every time I listen to him. He is a great communicator and has such empathy for people and he puts his life experiences to good use. He is one of the best interviewers I have ever seen. Blessings upon him.
I was introduced to Dr Mike channel by my son, who was 9 at the time.
We watched it together and talked about Dr Mike, still do now in his teenage years.
God Bless you Dr Mike, you are our hero.
I think this was one of the best episodes on this podcast. It was so real and honest. I really appreciate this episode.
OMG 2 hour interview with my favorite doctor on my favorite PODCAST!!!! 1 day before my 28th birthday. Thanks for the early birthday gift!
Happy Birthday to you 🎉
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉🎉
Happy Belated Birthday!
If I only learned one thing from this podcast it was learning that when you're doing CPR that you may not save a life but you are stabilizing them until professionals arrive. Thank you so much Steven for this wonderful podcast ❤️🎉
Dr Mike talks about scientists and how they go about proving hypothesis by even trying to disprove them. Has he seen scientists do this or is he believing what he was told in medical school? He admits to corruption in big pharma, it is also a known fact that " science" and the paid scientists are part of that capitalistic corruption.
But that IS saving a life !
There’s very good reason for the drop in trust of doctors. My family has been burned by doctors and would have been burned several times more but thankfully my wife did the research and was able to understand what was happening, preventing much worse issues that the doctor was about to prescribe. We were gaslit really hard by a specialist that should have known better. I am very careful about which doctors to trust. Many are not up to date on the literature, and others are just trying to get us out of their office to get to the next patient rather than actually trying to address the real health issue.
Dr. Mike is so real. I love how realistic he is, he's a real harbinger of truth in medicine these days.
Two kind souls having an earnest convo ♡ I love this to no end
I am glad you brought on board Dr.Mike for this interview session, Steven. Such an humble person he is with so much of knowledge. I respect a lot his dire passion to end the cycle of misinformation and feed people with the correct information. My respect for Dr. Mike just goes up after watching this podcast episode. Keep doing whatever you are doing for the goodness of the society. May God always bless you. Thank you for making this interview session happen, Steven!
Dr. Mike is not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
Never heard of Dr Mike before today, but i appreciate how humble he delivers his information throughout this whole interaction
I have been watching his stuff for a couple of years now, he's a good source of information, he's funny, and he has a great attitude.
Definitely recommend subbing his channel, his critiques on Tik Tok medical trends, and his reviews of medical scenes in shows are my favourite videos he does, but it's all good.
His channel is great! Makes it really fun and quirky too but also covers serious topics as well
@TimKralik he is a pervert doctor obsessed with adult content creators that put stuff animals on their crotches. His new one is Liam belfiore
Lina belfiore. She is a real sicko
Vaping..could be making gen Z looks old as millennials
I don't normally leave comments on RUclips but i just had to do so because while I obviously enjoyed the conversation and learned a lot as i always do when watching Dr. Mike or this podcast ,but I LOVED the part of the conversation on Dr.Mike's mother passing .
I lost my father very suddenly and one of the things i believe saved me especially in the early stages of grief is walking my dog .
Having the nessecety to put on shoes and walk my dog on the days i felt like isolating in my room was really life saving . I love the simplicity and truth of his Answers while being vulnerable is so refreshing and relatable.
Dr. Mike, fellow physician here. -Insidious misinformation sometimes is worse than outright disinformation - wow. Bravo. Hit the nail right on the head in such a succinctly medical way lol. What a truism there. Well done. Im going to steal that for my patients! Boy did you pin down a huge amount of thr problems today with that.
This doctor is a breath of fresh air.
@TheDiaryOfACEO I know this wasn't the main focus of the video, but hearing Dr. Mike talking about the loss of his mother, and the advice, "Just put on your shoes" is probably the best advice I have ever heard. Having lost my mother in 2022, in a similarly traumatic way, I wish I had that advice when it happened. Hearing him say that, was a beautifully sad moment for me. Thank you for this podcast and the talks that you engage in.
I think dr.mike is so grounding and gives me so much inspiration. I genuinely & wholeheartedly love listening to him talk.
Hi Dr Mike, I just wanted to say that you are such a kind, caring and amazing person. I've been watching your videos for a while now and i love them. You speak with such heart and You're so passionate about everything you talk about. You're so intelligent and knowledgeable. I love that you are being honest, informative and telling us the truth. I really respect you for that. On another note, you are super funny and I love that you make medicine and everything medical interesting and light hearted. Your videos make people laugh, entertain you, pay attention and want to watch you. You're the Whole package. I think you're totally awesome. You're such a nice guy, so passionate and hilarious. Thank you Dr Mike xo
This was fabulous! As a Catholic priest I was surprised somewhat by how much thinking about and acting out those thoughts are similar to what you do as a doctor. How what I say and do will help my parishioners is paramount! Thank you Dr. Mike! Since your practice is very close to mine, I am sure that you have cared for, or will care for, my people. That makes me glad! Who knows, we may even have “mutual patients! I will include you in my daily prayers.
I saw it in the movie, that if you are depressed you have to get up in morning and made your bed. Less chance you will go back immediately or at all. For almost 20 years helping me when I'm depressed. Rest of the time is just a feeling i did something that day and looks like i have some control over my life 😅 so ridiculous so good. If you are depressed, get up in the morning and make your bed even if the rest of the room is like battlefield 😅
I frequently don't make my bed but making the effort to get dressed means that if I find myself wanting or needing to leave the house I am ready to go. Another thing that helps me is aiming to leave a clean sink with no dirty dishes, I don't always succeed but I try. Maybe I should add bed making to my routine :)
I love the authenticity and raw honesty that you both share. It makes the being human okay.
OK Dr. Mike has continued to gain my love and respect over the years but the synergy and class displayed between these two is next level wow😍
I’d be Dr Mike’s friend for sure. What a podcast…enlightening and informational. Open honesty that money can’t buy! Our journey shapes us and we, as a people, are better for his particular journey. 🙌🏼
Love your DOAC podcasts Steven. They have been a great escape for me these past 6 weeks.
This was a rough one for me though at the end with the discussion of CPR reasons and the training occurred.
Brought me right back to the trauma of the night my 22 year old son collapsed, me on phone with 911 and then doing CPR with 19 year old son until EMS arrived.
Unable to revive, he died at home of bilateral pulmonary emboli from a DVT. Total shock.
Thanks for discussing your grief tips DR Mike they will help.
Had to pull car over to finish this one. It was a tear jerker.
Will need to look into Dr Mikes talks more.
GOD bless.
We LOVE our Dr. Mike. No quitting social media please!
Just finished listening to the whole thing. Dr mike did a great job to express his mission and showing part of his vulnerability on the podcast. Especially he’s a critic of a good amount of guests from this podcast. Good job dr mike. 👍
You simply don’t miss, Steven! As promised, your guests and episodes keep getting better 👌🏼 Thanks for all your work, DOAC team 👏🏼
I have so much respect and admiration for Dr Mike. I appreciate his honesty and integrity in who he is. Thank you for making such a positive impact to the world.
This podcast resonated with me more than any other I have watched on your channel. A really honest doctor saying it in layman's terms that everyone can understand and digest. His best advice was put on your shoes and go somewhere (I suggest get a dog and walk it twice a day) to improve your mental and physical health.
@DoctorMike embodies what health professionals should strive to be (ethical integrity), bridging the gap between medical and patients. Thank you for sharing your story and inspiring many more to continue on this mission
I'm adhd diagnosed almost 8 years now at 40, female. To answer that question Stephen....more people have an awareness, ie symptoms. More women have been diagnosed lately rather than males and the reason for this here in the UK is women,girls present differently to men,males. So boys especially in the 70's, 80's and 90's where easier to spot with predominantly hyper rather than the day dreaming girls. I only know this because I asked the same question last month to my adhd Dr. I've known 3 women in the last year ro be diagnosed and actually had other diagnosis. So women have even been misdiagnosed with things such has bpd, depression disorder, anxiety disorders rather than adhd and same with other neuro diverse things like autism.
This!!
This “you are on Tiktok so you think you have ADHD and ask for pills” stereotype drives me CRAAAAAZYYYY!!! So many doctors out there just give an opinion without knowing the conditions. Many doctors lack knowledge about what is affecting biological women and how they are affected. Even “common” things like ADHD and ASD. I don’t mean that this doctor is misogynistic by any mean but he probably doesn’t realize the gender biais in his field, the discrepancy in diagnosis for men and women (conditions over diagnosed for one gender and under diagnosed for the other) , that things are catching up and that there is still a lot of catching up to do. He’s talking about weightloss for example and no mention of thyroids, PCOS, and Lipedema that are affecting a LOT of women. Even ADHD causes more obesity for multi reasons that are still being researched. So many biological women with lipedema try the “calories in and out” and exercise and can’t lose weight and their condition makes them suffer (heavy legs, vein issues, bruising for no reason etc.). 1/12 women have it. Normally you need some kind of special surgery to get rid of it but apparently Ozempic helps with it … I bet my top dollar some women with Lipedema will use Ozempic and be accused of taking the easy way out and causing drug shortage.
Yupppppp
I'm a psychology major student and I just had a class about ADHD. Although you are right, here in the U.S. it is still a huge problem in girls getting diagnosed. The reason for that is that boys show visual symptoms like hyperactivity and girls are more inattentive...you cannot see when a child is not paying attention unless you look for the signs (when the psychologist does their job correctly). I'm glad they are doing a better job over there, but here it's still a problem unfortunately.
@@Alex-Mex very true!
Thank you very very much for not having commercial interruptions 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Honestly love doctors trying to not use medication as a first option. My doctor knows that being on multiple medications, I hate being prescribed more and takes that into account. I like that he discusses all my options with me and lets me be involved in my health plan. He even took my recommendation when I suggested a specific medication for my narcolepsy because of some studies I showed him which made me feel like I had even a bit of control over my health
I’m so very sorry about your mother…..She knows everything about you and your amazing journey as a wonderful Dr. and she is extremely Proud of you…🙏🏼💚
What a great episode. I've never heard of Dr.Mike before and I am so glad you brought him to us all. I am one of those everyday people who were going down the rabbit hole and falling pray to some of the misinformation out there even though I am a pretty intelligent person with a lot of common sense. After starting to treat my clinical depression I am slowly coming back to my senses ( weird by product of treating my depression, not expected this effect) and have stopped with the gazillion supplements, and tests and am back to a more balanced common sense approach to my health. Dr.Mike's views and opinions really resonate with me and make perfect sense to me. He's got one more fan in me. Thank you for the great podcast and the CPR refresher.
He's not perfect. He is still a product of western medicine and still can learn to be open to other forms of health care that have been in practice as long or longer than western medicine.
I absolutely love this, I just started on my health journey and this was the push I needed, thank y’all!
YES!! My two favourite RUclips people combined! 💃🎉 I love how Dr. Mike answered the question about corruption in pharma. It’s easy to become disheartened when we hear about negative instances but discarding an ENTIRE profession, especially one that holds itself to such high objective standards, would be a loss to ourselves as individuals and society as a whole. Think of all the medical advances that have increased our longevity in the past 100 years! We have science and the rigours of scientific research to thank!
big pharma is completely corrupt and this guy is awful....a grifter
I walk in my local forest, partly to enjoy the forest but mostly to say hello to all my doggy friends. I've made some friends among their owners too! It has helped me deal with my loss, even though I had to explain my partner's absence...which was so hard...we shared some tears and some laughter.
Great episode ,getting better, brighter guests as promised !😊 Could we have someone clued up about the past 4years? and the massive increase in sudden unexplained deaths and turbo cancers ? Mike yeadon would be amazing !!but there are plenty out there now brave enough to speak out .im sure you wont get cancelled for having a genuine guest on sharing facts.
I did not want this episode to end. Thank you so much for this one.
Im so so blessed to be quiet healthy, I'm 48, I have 2 friends going through cancer and all I want to do is learn, when I'm at appointments with them, I want to understand what the consultant is saying, want to try to understand the treatment they will be getting, what are the benefits and side effects.
We all should try to understand & take more control of our health
Don't remember that this is learning through the scope of a few doctors that have probably been biased with modern western medicine (not saying it's all bad or anything of course) though.
But it's definitely much better than simply saying "ok please do it" to anything for sure !
This whole interview was pure gold, so much useful advice.
It’s truly great seeing a Dr making its best efforts to teach people, and having so much compassion for people.
Thank you both ✨
Amazing. I enjoy Dr. Mike. But he made me a big fan today. The truth will free you. He reminded me that medicine is a practice not a perfect. Hey so is life. Your questions were appropriate and he picked up and stretched topics to be so insightful. Now I am subscribing to your site too. His advice was genuine, logical and not hysterical. What a gem. Now I need to see who else you have talk. Thanks.
I have been waiting for you two to find each other! Thank you both for your work of transparency, candor, and passion in your individual fields. ❤
OMG!!! So glad to see Doctormike on your show!!! I was waiting for this, i knew it’s gonna happen soon!!! Thanks! He’s amazing, you’re amazing, GREAT combo! Congrats!!!🎉 👏🏼❤️
I love Dr. Mike. I think he's amazing. How could anyone say anything bad about him? Really enjoyed this episode. Thank you 😊
This explains why it’s such a good thing to remove the aesthetic focus from exercise. I have struggled with and ED and still feel bad for not going to the gym every day if I wanna “lose weight” or look good. But exercising for strength, increasing my QOL, reducing disease risk, all of these reasons are so much more motivating and are reasons why we should WANT to work out…and I think exercise should be explained in that holistic way. Not as a punishment for eating/the way we look
The "put on your shoes" advise made me cry. I wish I had heard that a lot sooner in life.
Next IDEA 💡 being two guests that presented contradicting ideas and have them discuss what they believe and why… and bring evidence… TRUE science discussion & lesson happening live 🙌
Lol omg, I just made the same comment!!! 🤣
Dr. Mike does this on his channel regularly . It’s fascinating
I was just thinking Dr. Mindy Pelz and Dr. Mike would make an interesting discussion on nutrition and weight loss.
The impact of Dr. Mikes's work is immeasurable. Though the silent majority often remains quiet, their gratitude resonates deeply, radiating out into the universe. In your tranquil moments, Dr. Mike, feel the love: it's present with a resounding volume, despite the silence...
Agreed. All of us quietly enjoying the amazing content from people like these two aren’t heard, but all the hateful, bitter, angry people are screaming non-stop. Please believe that there are a thousand people quietly enjoying for every loud hater.
1000%
He has spread misinformation himself in the past quite a few times because of being ill-informed or not educated enough in the field of medicine he was talking about. The silent majority that call him out on this are quiet because he deletes their comments or manipulates his audience to believe he's the right one by pointing at 1 research that supports his claims while the 1000s others don't. The fault is with people like you who don't cross verify what these fame hungry influencers say. You do this with other things and people too and then blame the state of the economy on the govt or the previous/current generation. Messed up.
Anti aging needs to start when you are young,not when you are old already, Don't dtink alcohol and don't use drugs.
You czn not stop aging unless you die. But you can slow down the degradation of the body by not drinking or drugging. Exercise is also the way to slow the effects of aging, but aging can not be stopped or reversed. You can not turn back time.
There’s still such a thing as one’s “biological age”. Even on an organ-to-organ level. It can be pinpointed and be “reversed” by diet/lifestyle.
Also, Bryan Johnson.
Looking younger than your age absolutely has to start in your youth. Your lifestyle choices determine how well you will age, so the earlier the better. Avoid processed foods, avoid alcohol, avoid drugs, avoid excessive sun AND sun screen, avoid wearing foundation, drink clean water, have a healthy bodyweight, exercise, keep stress low, and get adequate sleep. That will do wonders. I had my first facial at 42.. The girl demanded to know what I do because, aftwr looking at my face under a blue light, she said there was nothing for her to do. She kept thinking I had to be using some mysterious Skincare routine. No, just soap and an oil (any oil) for moisturizing. Skin health comes from internal health.
and SUGARRrrr!
I was a hardcore drug user for almost 30 years..... I've been off the hard stuff completely for over 2 years.... but I still use Cannabis and Psilocybin for anxiety and depression.
For years people used to warn me of aging early.....
One thing I didn't do, was DRINK!
I used other things instead.... but I'm on the spectrum and studied the shit out whatever I would use.
Well, here we are all these years later, and I'm in better shape than any of the people that used to say that to me.
It's really all about being smart about your use.
Study contraindications... study mechanism of action of all the substances.... and you don't have to live an ascetic lifestyle to be healthy.
@@JustJenLive The earlier the better, absolutely, yes.
I agree with you immensely on what you wrote, except you CAN change the course of how you look, no matter how late, just as how you can feel. Keep promoting how.
I recently had a heart attack and a stroke. After I could "get my shoes on", my wife and I took our dogs to the dog park. It was the best feeling ever
I watch many of your videos and enjoy them, but this interview ranks as one of the very best. Thanks to both of you for such informative and sensible content.
So many points resonated in this episode. Loved that he had so much humility, vulnerability and care in his delivery. Genesis (my dog) has been in my life for 8 years and as someone with anxiety, her support has done wonders for my emotional and physical health.
