The Checkup with Doctor Mike · Are Everyday Chemicals ACTUALLY Harming Your Health · 7 May 2025 podcast
When the polio vaccine came out, there was a cutter incident that happened as a result of the polio vaccine, where one lab mismanufactured the vaccine. They messed up. They didn't kill the virus. And as a result, this vaccine actually ended up giving kids polio. Kids were paralyzed. Kids died.
I think I've heard this story.
Terrible story. It was the worst vaccine situation in history. The reason why that happened was the lab messed up because all the other labs made it correctly. Public outcry happened. They said, get rid of this vaccine. This vaccine is so bad. Look what it did to these children. What ended up happening is we swapped to a different vaccine, an oral vaccine.
This vaccine actually ended up giving people true polio because it wasn't the same type of polio vaccine that was given before. What ended up happening is because of public outcry, we literally overcorrected and ended up giving a vaccine that while wild type polio was eradicated, lab type because of the vaccine was still happening.
So I worry about these situations where we overcorrect because of a chemical. and then come up with a solution that might be worse than the initial problem. You know, there's no question. Do you think that's an issue?
I think that's, you know, these are great stories and anecdotal and I agree and I think I've heard that story and we've never been perfect in a lot of things. Truly, humans are, you know, not perfect. Natürlich.
Aber die Idee ist, dass die Idee in Bezug auf das, was ich tue, und ich versuche, in meiner Linie zu bleiben und wirklich darüber zu sprechen, was ich tue und was ich schreibe und was ich poste, ist, dass man sich bewusst hält, dass ich keine Ausstrahlung erzeugen kann. Ich bin nicht eine dramatische Person in meinem Leben. Es ist wirklich, dass man wirklich einfach eine Idee gibt, wo...
Issues may exist. Give them reasonable resources should they choose them or not. And I do give those lots of resources that are managed and evergreen and taken care of by other people. Because that's what they do for a living. That's what their jobs are. It's not me to tell which brand to do. I don't even endorse brands. I don't endorse products at all.
I've chosen not to do that so that the work that I teach people... ist unbiased. Das ist, wie ich die Arbeit, die ich mache, ausgewählt habe. Aber ich denke, was du sagst, ist, wie du den menschlichen Ausruf kontrollierst. Wir sind so kompliziert als Menschen und sehr wenig, ich würde sagen, besonders jetzt, unsere Niveaus sind viel niedriger.
Wir werden sehr hyperentzündet über Probleme und es ist wirklich eine schmerzhafte Sache. Ich stimme dir zu. Aber wenn es um Messungen über Chemikalien geht, sage ich einfach, Think about what we put on in and around our bodies. Be conscious. Here are some resources to look up.
Here are the companies that I know are looking them up as well and have rating systems based on their science that they pulled. These are the things that we now know could potentially be harmful. It's not all black and white. Never been. It's how do we make our bodies less vulnerable by... Ja, genau. How do we exercise? How do we move?
Well, I don't know if we want to live 20 years life expectancy.
Well, you know, listen, we are living longer, but we are also living pretty sick. We have, on average, 6 out of 10 people have chronic health conditions in this country. And that's because we don't have universal health care.
Well, that's why I think a good point for us to end on is to talk about the things we agree upon, which is the exercise component, the decreasing of processed foods, getting more fiber in our diet.
Which have chemicals.
Absolutely. Everything has chemicals. Chemical is a complicated word.
Yeah.
In fact, many synthetic chemicals... That's a very large statement to make out of 95,000 chemicals. But isn't it equally large to say that it's dangerous? Aber die Unterschiede sind, dass ich Leute frage, was sie persönlich wählen sollen. Wenn sie eine Erkrankung in ihrem Haus machen, welche Teile sie einsetzen, was sie in ihrem Haus wählen sollen.
Ich habe entschieden, Ceramische Teile in meinem Büro zu verwenden, weil ich nicht Carpeting wollte. Ich wollte keine Synthetische Fibre, ich wollte keine Schmutzungen. Das sind Chancen, die wir haben, die wir machen können.
No one's arguing about your choice to make that. But why would, as a doctor, you would recommend someone to not get carpet in their home?
