The Secret Fruit That Widens Blood Vessels and Boosts Blood Flow to Legs & Feet! Dr. Mandell​

Dec 18, 2024

Discover the incredible health benefits of watermelon, a natural fruit packed with nutrients that support your cardiovascular system and boost blood flow. Watermelon contains citrulline, a compound that converts into arginine and then into nitric oxide, a molecule that helps relax and widen blood vessels. This process improves circulation, particularly to the legs and feet, where healthy blood flow is crucial for reducing discomfort and enhancing mobility. By promoting better circulation, watermelon can also support heart health, maintain optimal blood pressure, and provide energy for daily activities. Whether you’re looking to improve your vascular health or simply want a refreshing and heart-friendly addition to your diet, watermelon is a powerful choice. Watch now to learn how this amazing fruit can benefit your body in so many ways!

Late to this.

Also, I post as a diabetic - Type II, controlled.

The key to control is simple: Lifestyle. Regular sleep, and enough of it, with your natural sleep/wake cycles. Food, heavy in proteins. Fats are fine; watch total caloric intake.

As much exercise as you can squeeze into your daily routine. Walk, don't drive. Take a bicycle if walking is not practical. If the weather is bad, mall-walk or find another sheltered area.

The PROBLEM is, first, diabetes often manifests in age. Old people don't want to be out peddling bicycles. Walking hurts, especially with old-people problems like knees or hips.

Second problem is, limiting the caloric intake is HARD. Lots of heavy sweets, pies and the like, are fine if you're an active teenager or you just spent two days working a harvest-bee with the neighbors, getting the crops in before the first October rains.

They're NOT fine if you're sitting on your nethers, reading or watching a screen. YOU HAVE TO CUT IT OUT.

How many are able to do this, especially in today's slack culture? Grandma isn't like her own grandmother. She's a Boomer. We're a bit short on self-discipline, sadly.

European Nutritionist Explains Why American Food Is So Unhealthy​

You can't outrun a bad diet. Food — not lack of exercise — fuels obesity, study finds​

Back in the 1800s, obesity was almost nonexistent in the United States. Over the last century, it's become common here and in other industrialized nations, though it remains rare among people who live more traditional lifestyles, such as the Hadza hunter-gatherers of Tanzania.

So what's changed? One common explanation is that as societies have developed, they've also become more sedentary, and people have gotten less active. The assumption is that as a result, we burn fewer calories each day, contributing to an energy imbalance that leads to weight gain over time, says Herman Pontzer, a professor of evolutionary biology and global health at Duke University who studies how human metabolism has evolved.

I'm here to tell ya. Drop the weight, drop the A1C readings.

It's hard, with the filthy engineered food we have today...but, feel better, live longer, take fewer pills...whack off 20 pounds.

I recommend intermittent fasting - one meal a day. Save time, save money, eat a few things that diets don't allow. Like, occasionally, ice cream or fried chicken.

90% Of Pasta On Grocery Store Shelves Is Contaminated With Teflon.

Shiny Smooth Pasta Dough Gets Extruded Thru Heated Teflon Die Plates.

This Releases PFAs Forever Chemicals Into Each Noodle.

Here Are Vital Shopping Tips For Choosing Non Teflon Pasta & Noodles At Every Store.

Pasta Is Cut In 2 Ways:
Teflon Die Cut (Avoid):
Teflon is cheaper on the shelf & replaced most bronze cut pasta because of profitability for big food manufacturers. Teflon, as we know, causes harmful health effects to the body, including neurological & cancer.

Teflon cut pasta signifies that the pasta dough has been squeezed thru a teflon extruder, which causes friction & subsequent heat, allowing PFAs forever chemicals to end up in the pasta. These pastas will be smooth, shiny & without any texture in appearance.

Bronze Drawn Die Cut (Preferred):
Bronze cut signifies that the pasta die cut mechanism used with the pasta extruder is made of pure bronze. There are no chemicals involved, which results in a healthy PFAs free pasta that is rough & textured looking in appearance.

Nearly all pasta on grocery-store shelves has been made with Teflon dies, which allows a quick & cheap production. These industrial teflon dies create extruded pastas with a slick teflon coated surface that’s nearly impenetrable to sauce or seasoned oils.

The same dough passing through pure chemical free bronze dies emerges with tiny abrasions on each strand of spaghetti or elbow macaroni. These abrasions allow sauce & seasoned oils to cling & saturate each forkful with rich flavor.

Labeling By Law:
*⃣ Teflon Cut pasta has no distinct labeling nor is it required to be stated as such.
*⃣ Bronze Drawn Cut pasta WILL 100% be labeled somewhere on the front or the back of the label.

Cost Considerations For Budget & Economics:
Prior to 2024, healthy bronze die cut pasta was higher priced than teflon pasta, but today the price per pound is almost identical & there are options for Bronze Drawn Die cut pasta in dollar stores, discount stores & bulk club stores.

Healthiest Nutrition Without Pesticides When Buying Pasta & Noodles:
Because of heavy pesticide & herbicide use in the US that contaminates all grains, when budget allows, look for pasta from Italy, GMO free & certified organic which will allow someone to enjoy pasta once in awhile free from GI distress & allergic reactions from chemical laden US grains.

Some Common Brands Of Teflon Pasta To Avoid:
Ronzoni
Barilla
Divella
Most Regular Store Brands

Some Common Brands Of Bronze Cut Pasta To Buy:
De Cecco
Rummo
Dreamfields
Faella
Barilla al Bronzo
Garofalo
Delverde
Czechos
Mulesana

Why Americans Eat What Europe Bans​

Aug 17, 2025 UNITED STATES
Hate to break it to you, but if you are dining in the United States, your truffle oil wasn't made from truffles. Your vanilla extract? Well, that's probably just a lab-made derivative of crude oil. And your shaker of Parmesan cheese? It probably has wood pulp inside. But fake foods aren’t just misleading, they are also becoming incredibly common in the USA... up to 50% of calories, according to some estimates. So how did America become the imitation nation, while Europe said no?”

This Food Is a Stroke Ready to Happen — Stop Eating It Now! Dr. Mandell​

Sep 30, 2025

Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke. Most people blame genetics or age, but the truth is that the foods we eat every day silently damage our arteries, raise blood pressure, and set the stage for blood clots that can cut off blood flow to the brain in an instant. In this video, I reveal the one category of foods most strongly linked to stroke, explain the deep physiology behind how they scar the endothelium, stiffen arteries, and increase clot risk, and then show you what foods science says can protect your circulation and your brain.
⚠️ Processed meats like bacon, hot dogs, deli slices, and sausages are loaded with sodium, nitrites, and oxidized fats. These compounds inflame the vascular system, disrupt nitric oxide production, and accelerate plaque buildup. When a plaque ruptures, the resulting clot can lodge in a cerebral artery and trigger an ischemic stroke in seconds.
✅ The good news is that your arteries can heal. Leafy greens, berries, garlic, turmeric, omega-3s, nuts, and polyphenol-rich foods can restore endothelial health, reduce oxidative stress, and drastically cut your risk. Every choice you make at the table either inflames your arteries or protects them. The decision is yours.

Try This Once and Notice What Happens After You Eat | Dr. Mandell​

Jan 3, 2026
Most people focus on what they eat, but very few realize that the order you eat your food can dramatically change how your body responds.In this video, I show you a simple eating sequence that can help flatten blood sugar spikes, reduce insulin overload, improve digestion, and support metabolic health, without changing the foods you enjoy.
Starting with fiber and vegetables helps slow gastric emptying and glucose absorption. Adding protein and healthy fats next signals satiety hormones like GLP-1 and PYY. Saving starches and sugars for last reduces rapid glucose entry into the bloodstream, easing the burden on the pancreas and improving insulin sensitivity.
This one simple shift can help with energy crashes, cravings, stubborn weight gain, brain fog, and long-term metabolic stress. Try it once and pay attention to how your body feels afterward.

My 5 simple steps to eat healthier in 2026 (more energy, better focus, lower inflammation)

Jan 4, 2026
📌 Download my step-by-step guide and recipes here: https://tdk.link/free-guide
How do you start eating healthier? It’s something I get asked a lot, and it’s something I’ve had to figure out myself over time.
I didn’t always know much about nutrition. As a junior doctor, I lived on cereal, ready meals and vending machine snacks. Then I developed a heart problem, which made me look a bit closer at how I was eating.
Since then, I’ve spent years studying nutrition and talking to some of the world’s leading experts. And over time, these are the habits I keep coming back to because they help with:
• Fewer cravings, especially mid-morning and late afternoon
• Better gut health by feeding your gut microbes
• Lower inflammation thanks to polyphenols
• Feeling fuller for longer, thanks to enough protein and fiber at meals
In this video, I break it down into 5 simple steps I trust and use day-to-day.
If you already eat fairly well but want a clearer starting point, or something practical you can share with a friend or family member, I hope this helps.

As a junior "doctor" he was compelled to take the Holy Majik Jab. Although, fresh from CIA mind-control programming in "university" he didn't need much arm twisting.

THAT is why the heart issue. He should have taken Statistics 101 instead of "Ethics of Modern Inclusive Medicine."

I didn't watch the vid. If he's holding up a bottle of corn-syrup sugar-water, as how to save money eating at home...a PHYSICIAN doing this...words fail me.
 
Heh. That movie is where I first came across "Plethora".
Many, many moons ago.
Shee-itt.

I used to read books. When all the kewel kids were playing stinkfinger in the drive-in, with Three Amigos playing.

I not only knew that word; I made the social blunder of USING it. And others like.

In public.

A wet fart at the table in the cafeteria would have been less socially injurious...
 

Why experts are divided over the new federal dietary guidelines​

Jan 7, 2026
The Trump administration released new dietary guidelines that will shape everything from school lunches to medical advice. The guidance puts a bigger emphasis on eating more protein and dairy, something Health Secretary Kennedy has long sought. William Brangham discussed the recommendations with Lindsey Smith Taillie, a nutrition epidemiologist and co-director of the Global Food Research Program.
