00:00:00
that is the most widely prescribed drug
00:00:02
in this country and I believe in the US
00:00:03
also. But the list of problems acrewing
00:00:06
from long-term use is beginning to grow
00:00:08
and is serious cancers, dementias. But
00:00:11
the other thing is is that once you're
00:00:13
on it, it's really difficult to come off
00:00:15
it. And that's not all. We use far too
00:00:17
many antibiotics and that's coming a
00:00:19
serious health issue now because the
00:00:21
number of people dying from antibiotic
00:00:23
resistance infections is beginning to
00:00:25
rise dramatically. It's quite
00:00:27
frightening. So, are there alternatives
00:00:29
on this table that I should also
00:00:31
consider as a form of medicine?
00:00:32
Oh, yes. And most of these ones I'm
00:00:34
going to be talking about have a pretty
00:00:36
immediate effect. Now, have a bite of
00:00:38
this.
00:00:39
Wo.
00:00:40
These things have medicinal properties.
00:00:42
So, let's start with dark chocolate. In
00:00:44
terms of long-term brain health and
00:00:46
cardiovascular health, it's one of the
00:00:48
best medicines around.
00:00:49
Really?
00:00:50
Oh, yes. The next one is garlic. And in
00:00:52
some parts of the world, they use garlic
00:00:54
instead of penicellin. In fact, there
00:00:56
was an old trick where if you had enough
00:00:57
garlic, breathe on a petri dish and you
00:00:59
could kill various pathogens just by
00:01:01
your breath.
00:01:01
Wow.
00:01:02
And then there's this to reduce your
00:01:04
cholesterol levels. This can really help
00:01:06
with your eyesight. This is your blood
00:01:07
flow, gut health, cardiovascular health.
00:01:10
Now, this is one of the ones to watch in
00:01:12
terms of long-term brain health.
00:01:14
Rosemary, we actually did a clinical
00:01:16
trial on this. All you need to do is
00:01:18
press it and sniff. So, you can see why
00:01:20
some of this stuff already is powerful.
00:01:21
Now, we have some more to go through.
00:01:23
And this is where it gets interesting.
00:01:24
There's a lot of people listening who
00:01:26
will want to hear this. Coffee.
00:01:27
Oh god, what do I need to know?
