Hello, I'm Kimberly king and welcome to the mother's market radio show, a show dedicated to the Truth, Beauty and Goodness of the human condition. On today's show, we have something for everyone, we're gonna discuss oxygen and give you some information on how just changing the way you breathe can enhance your quality of life, cure what ALS you? And give you more energy and vitality. You won't wanna miss this one, plus, we'll tell you what's new at mother's market as we approach the holiday season and give you a chance to win a 100 gift card. So listen carefully to the cohort this week, but first up, it's time for a breath of fresh air.
Okay, and I'm in that literally. Dr. Donald jolly gave rias, been practicing hyperbaric medicine for over 30 years, including 15 years at the London hyperbaric oxygen Institute, and has studied in London, Aidan, Scotland, and here in California.
He is an expert in the application of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and has even worked with Mother Teresa and Calcutta Mexico. It was my pleasure to welcome him to the mother's market radio show, Dr. jolly, how are you?
I'm great.
And you look right, I'm happy to be here.
Well, it's a pleasure to have you here. And for those in our audience that may not be familiar with your mission and your work, why don't you fill our audience in a little bit before we get to the show's topic.
Well, my mission is to teach people how to use God's drug, God invented a drug unpainted. Well, actually it's not patent that it's regulated now by the FDA, the FDA has declared oxygen a drug, so it's an official drug, it needs a prescription before administration, but it's my job to tell people that it's the most important drug on Earth, and it's the most necessary one that we need without it, we die very quickly a couple of minutes without food, without water, we can live a while without oxygen. We die very quickly. So my mission is to teach people how to use oxygen to their benefit...
I love it. Is it still free?
Some of it, it ends how you get it, if you breathe it, I can teach you how to breathe it more effectively, and that's all for free.
Okay, I like it, and I like your style.
And today we're talking about oxygen and something we all take for granted, we do, and not too many people that are familiar on how we can help do this, of course, it's a very unique topic, so Dr. jolly tell us outside of keeping us all alive, what are the benefits of oxygen?
Well, we have to know that, first of all, in ancient times, the oxygen level on earth was about twice what it is now... Right, that's amazing.
So it's very amazing, and we have to be very aware that we're living in an age of deprivation at this point, plus none of us... I say None of us, and I mean none of us breathe to our full potential, we have a lung capacity that allows us to breathe in and breathe out a great volume, we don't do it, we breathe probably 50% to 60% of what we can, which means our oxygen saturation, what we absorb on the oxygen in the air is much less than we really need, some people are wandering around with a 91% saturation, 92%... It should really be about 98%. And some of the problems that we have are asset, stomach, bacterial infections, viral infections, lower immunity, because our oxygen levels are too low.
Now, you and I could sit here and we could breathe for eight minutes and elevate your oxygen levels to normal because you'd be breathing properly.
So this is what I wanna do. I want people to breathe properly, to use oxygen as a drug, if you will, because it will help heal certain things... Oxygen Maintains life. Without oxygen, there is no life. The other job of oxygen is to promote healing, to promote a balance in the body where there are certain levels of oxygen, certain bacteria and virus cannot live, so the higher those levels are, the better off we are.
I mean... And it's absolutely true. Without oxygen. We wouldn't be here. Isn't that true?
Absolutely.
Well, how can I tell... Which is important to know, what is our oxygen level? How do I know?
Well, if you really wanna know your oxygen level and you want a free OT level task, you can come to the center for new medicine, and we will give you an Occitan writing down your oxygen level, and I could even throw in a couple of breathing lessons for you and show you how you can elevate it, and that's all a free service that we offer to people because we think it's so important to do... You know what, going back to something that you said in the very, very beginning, why are the statistics so drastic from years ago to now, why are we breathing so differently, why are we getting in on the Earth has changed dramatically. And we have polluted our environment with exhaust from automobiles and airplanes and motorcycles and boats and whatever, you reduce the oxygen level because you increase the level of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the air, so it's a matter of our civilization of how we're living, and that's one of the basic reasons why the oxygen levels have diminished so remarkably... Okay, so if you're so low or I needed treatment, what are the types of therapies... Well, the first therapy is to breathe, real to fill the lungs and to empty the lungs, fill the lungs and to empty the lungs, if you do that for about 8 to 10 minutes, you will increase your oxygen level, so that's the first... The second is to breathe oxygen at something similar to an oxygen bar, and it doesn't increase your oxygen levels dramatically, but it will increase them by about 15, maybe 18%, and at that level, you will feel different. The next level is to breathe oxygen, what we call 100% 02, 00% 02 means a breathing 100% oxygen from a special mask that seal... So you're not getting the little bit of extra oxygen you'd get in an oxygen bar, you're getting a full dose, and that's a prescriptive, because remember, this is a drug now, so you cannot use 100% pure oxygen unless you have a prescription.
So that's the next step.
The ultimate step is hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which is done in a hyperbaric chamber utilizing 100% oxygen. The magic of hyperbaric oxygenation is that normally the only part of our blood volume that receives dissolved oxygen, the only part is what's called Hemoglobin or red blood cells, the red blood cells constitute only 15% of our blood volume, the other 85% of our blood volume is plasma plasma is a delivery fluid, we carry the oxygenated blood cells using the plasma to get throughout our entire body, the plasma does not receive dissolved oxygen, so we're breathing in this studio right now, we're not receiving the SOLVE oxygen into our plasma only or hemoglobin.
Since hemoglobin is only 15% of our blood volume, we're only oxygenation, 15% of our blood, when we go into a hyperbaric chamber, what happens is the pressure from the chamber causes actually causes the oxygen 100% oxygen to dissolve into the 85% of the plasma that never gets oxygen.
So at that point, we are originating 100% of our entire blood, if you come in here and get a free oxygen test on our exhibitor program, we can tell you what your oxygen saturation level is, but it's only majoring your hemoglobin, which is 15% of your blood volume, so if you wanna oxygen ate the other 85%, therefore oxygen Ting, 100% of your blood volume, you go into a hyperbaric chamber, you will dissolve hundreds of times the amount of oxygen into your blood, which causes all kinds of healing cascades.
I was just gonna ask you what happened to...
Well, I'll tell you, if you have been told you have to have an amputation because you have a serious wound on your foot, you may or may not be a diabetic, but you have a blood flow problem, and they just can't get it to heal.
We can put you in a hyperbaric chamber, we have 90% chance of healing you, 90% chance because that hyperbaric therapy will cause angiogenesis, which is the growth of new blood vessels in the body that will feed the area that's not getting fed blood and oxygen. And begin a healing cascade, and that is true with so many other conditions, so how many patients do you have that utilize This hyperbaric chamber? This seems to be... I would think that people that have illnesses or cancer... I think that everybody should know about this.
Well, as far as I'm concerned, our mission is to really preach the gospel of oxygenation because it's very important, very important, but it's one of the best kept secrets, and one of the reasons it's a best kept secret is because the cost of some of these hyperbaric therapies and hospitals is very high, and most of the information that has gotten out to the public comes from the hospitals about hyper-BRAC oxygen and the pricing, for example, if you need a hyperbaric treatment and you go to UCLA... Hyperbaric department, which is par, excellent, is wonderful. We have the same kind of equipment in terms of what it does and how it works as UCLA, but you walk into UCLA and you ask them, I want a hyperbaric therapy regime. I have a gangrene or something that hyperbaric will treat. Can you please tell me how much it's gonna cost?
I did this, I did this with a patient who lived right next to UCLA on Gale Avenue, because I thought, well, it would be much easier for them to walk five blocks or drive five blocks and two hours. So I called him up in front of the patient on the speaker from, and I said, I have patients, two patients, they both need hyperbaric therapy, they go through a noble accident, they have some non-healing problems in the lower legs. What would be your fee? She figured out what they needed. She said it would be 60000.
I go, now, that's a 2000 of treatment. 2000 a treatment... Our fees at the center for new medicine or 200 of treatment, so there's a big difference and we have the same kind of equipment, but we're not a hospital, a hospital charges as you know, a lot of money, so the cost of it is high and that scares a lot of people away. So what we need to do now is to educate people that it is available here, and it's even a little less if you have more than a certain number of treatments, and insurance will cover some problems, not everything, not everything by any means, but they will cover some of the, I like to say insurance will cover only the things that are borderline between you and death, osteo necrosis, which is a breakdown of bone osteomyelitis, which is a bone infection. They will cover that radiation poisoning, hyperbaric is about one of the only effective treatments for radiation poisoning, and they will cover that they will cover non-healing wounds that are so bad that gangrene is about ready to in... Or has already set in. And very, very serious issues like that, the flesh-eating bacteria is one of them, I've never seen one flesh-eating bacteria case that we haven't helped.
Wow, this is very interesting information, Dr. jolly, we have a lot of questions to get to. We have to take a break right now, but we are going to get to more of this information, more on oxygen, so stay with us. We will be right back.
We'll come back to the mother's radio show, and we wanna take time to remind you that if you missed any portion of today's show, you can download the podcast from our website, mother's market dot com, click the link for radio podcast. And listen to our past shows. Plus, you can always download our Healthy Recipes and money savings coupons, all available at mother's market dot com. And now back to our interview with Dr. jelly, you were talking about oxygen therapy and how we can all benefit from it, so let's talk about how many treatments you need before you can start to see results, it really depends on what's wrong if you have a wound... Non-healing wound, we can tell in 10 treatments whether you're gonna heal quickly or not, you will see great differences if you have a stroke, for example, because we can grow new blood vessels back in the brain to replace the ones that were damaged in the stroke, it may take a number of treatments or may take 40 treatments, but you also have to do some physical therapy and do some work along with it to get all the brain signals and the neurological signals functioning properly, so it's a matter of What's wrong? What do you wanna do? One or two treatments for some things, and athlete can have an injury, we can do five or six treatments and have them healed very quickly if it's not a severe injury.
Okay, and Dr. Jan, do you wanna go back for a second, I do wanna also talk about how often... You mentioned something earlier about the eight to 10 minutes and how often should we breathe that 8 to 10 minute, the breathing exercise that I do for about eight minutes, every day, I do six to eight times. It's very helpful to me.
Very, very helpful.
Our oxygen levels are very important for us emotionally, psychologically as well as biologically, so if we would get up in the morning, drink some really good clean water and do some breathing exercises, the best way to start the day, I never use caffeine in my body. I never use caffeine, I use water and oxygen in the morning... And that's what we all should do.
Okay, I'm gonna remember that depending on how early you get up, water and oxygen at... Right.
Okay, so moving on, what are some things that people can do to prevent having chronic pain... Well, of course, pain is a symptom, you know that, and I look at oxygen as being a very important factor in diminishing pain, oxygen therapy, the ultimate oxygen therapy, which is hyperbaric oxygen, because what it does is it very rapidly Decreases inflammation, and inflammation is one of the sources of pain, and as it decreases inflammation, it increases the healing cascade, so I would look at that use of hyperbaric for pain issues, certainly a little bit of breathing and some oxygen outside the Chamber can help, but the real help is gonna come from being in the hyperbaric... Now, we've been talking about the hyperbaric chamber, and you been talking a little bit about athletes with injuries, what can happen with an athlete that has had an injury... Well, my experience is... My experience is that the people I have worked with over the last 25-plus years who have been injured in an athletic event, that we can get them back on the field, off the bench in half of the time... Half the time.
So that's pretty good, and economically for the team owner is incredible.
That's amazing.
It is amazing, and teams can afford that, right?
Well, of course.
So why not? Why don't they do that? That would be an amazing thing. Or half the time... Well, I know some of the secrets, and I know some of these athletes have their own chambers...
Oh really?
Oh yes, absolutely.
That's a big deal right there. Okay, let's talk about the epidemic of sleep and oxygen... Well, it's deprivation of oxygen during sleep, because we have all kinds of problems that the store our ability and capability of breathing, the quality of our breath at night is not good, especially for people who are overweight, that's gonna be a really big problem for them, and oxygen levels are diminished at night because the breathing mechanism is Dominus, it's the fact that the air doesn't get through the nose, down into the lungs, and enough volume to supply the oxygen that's necessary for us to sleep. And what happens is our heart starts to pump faster because the brain monitors our oxygen levels, the heart starts to pump faster when we're not getting enough oxygen, so when you do that every night, you're over-burdening the heart, there are all kinds of problems that you come up with, you can come up with propensity for stroke, for heart disease, for memory loss and many other problems, and it is epidemic. It is epidemic, and we have a sleep program at the Center for new medicine that can help identify whether or not you have a problem and there are answers to these problems, you don't have to live with sleep, sleep apnea can give you incredible fatigue during the day, I just had a beautiful situation with a very highly placed executive in Orange County who was a zombie everyday zombie, and he is doing so well now, and his wife said, Thank you for giving... Thank you for giving my husband back to me and that wonderful.
It's wonderful. How long does that result takeover body pretty much to this particular gentleman, would you believe like four nights, four nights of sleep, and people can wake up 50-60 times an hour.
Oh my God, because the brain monitor your oxygen levels all night long, and if you get too low, the brain doesn't wanna die and it knows at which level it will not survive, so it wakes you up and it doesn't wake you up fully, consciously not, but almost but it completely distorts and disturbs your sleep level and your quality of sleep is diminished beyond the point of sleep being any good to you at all, so once you start sleeping three or four nights in a row... It changes your life.
Yeah, totally.
Wow.
Wow, that's a great story.
In a great innocent. Yeah, but it's over and over and over and over.
It's not just one story right now that happens here, I hear that a lot here at the Center for New Moon. That's great. Let's talk a little bit about types of foods or supplements that can increase your oxygen level... Well, all kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits, things that are natural. Not things that are dead. And there's a great supplement that's available at mothers, it's an oxygen-stabilized oxygen liquid that you can add to fruit juice or water and drink it, and it will help to elevate your oxygen levels, I think if you did that as well as breath, that would be a very wonderful thing to do, to have higher levels of oxygen that you normally would if you were just a lazy breather. Okay, so products. Yeah, can you say what the products that they are... Well, one is called soul food. There's an aerobic 07, and there's one just to stabilized oxygen, you can ask... You go in to Corgan there all the time on... I just ask the clerk for the stabilized oxygen section and they take me there and I buy it on my way, I go there for dinner about three, four times every single week.
At mothers, they say Dr. caller table is ready and that with the S. Well, I love it in that big, beautiful new restaurant in the store and coach to mass. And it's absolutely magnificent.
If you'd make a recommendation to people, what would that be for oxygen.
Well, number one, start breathing well, number two, take a sleep test to be sure that your oxygen consumption in the night during your sleep time is appropriate and not debilitating to you, because if it is debilitating to you, you're in trouble, come on down to the center for new medicine for a free oxygen test level test, and we can give you a little bit of advice as what to do, there's not a medical appointment, it's just a free quick test, but you get a couple of words of advice about oxygen along with it.
Perfect. Well, thank you for your time today, Dr. jolly, we look forward to having you on again, but in the meantime, you can get more information on Dr. jolly, and here at the Center for new medicines on the website, CF, NEON dot com, and perhaps schedule an appointment as Dr. Joe suggested, we look forward to our next visit. Thank you, thank you very much.
Hi, today we're gonna give you a recipe for perfect pumpkin pie. This recipe starts with a 15-ounce can of Farmers Market pumpkin, 114 ounce can, Santini sweeten condensed milk, two large eggs, one teaspoon ground cinnamon, one half taste boon Ground Ginger, a half teaspoon Ground Nutmeg, a half teaspoon salt and 19 inch unbanked Pires.
First, you want to pre-heat your oven to 425, you're gonna wish together the pumpkin, the sweet and condensed milk, egg spices and salt in the medium ball until smoothbore it into the crust and you bake it for 15 minutes, at 15 minutes, you reduce the oven temperature to 350 and you continue to bake the pie 35 to 40 minutes until that knife inserted one inch from the crust comes out clean, you wanna call it completely garnished if you desire to and serve. It's delicious, and this recipe is also available in our mother's Marketing kitchen, local November 2010 ad that comes to your home in your local paper and can also be found at the front of every register at the store, have a great holiday and happy pump complied or thanks for listening to the mother's market radio show.
