1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Doctor Jim Keeney is the Chief Medical Officers for Dignity

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: a chief medical officer for Dignity Saint Mary Medical Center

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 1: in Long Beach.

4
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 2: Jim, good morning, It's Wednesday morning.

5
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 3: Bill.

6
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: All right, I'm sorry, Happy Wednesday to you. Okay.

7
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 1: I want to get right into this with Robert Kennedy,

8
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 1: Robert RFK Junior, because he's one of my favorite cabinet secretaries,

9
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: and he is advocating for more saturated fats, not fewer

10
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 1: faturated saturated fats.

11
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 2: But I thought saturated fats were not healthy.

12
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 1: And is he going to say, don't weigh one hundred

13
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: and eighty pounds, weigh two hundred and eighty pounds because

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: that's good for you.

15
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 3: Right? Yeah, I mean so again, I love how crazy.

16
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 3: The more time you give this guy, the more crazy

17
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 3: it sounds. So and he confuses things, right, he puts

18
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 3: things together that don't belong together, Like we should replace

19
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 3: simple carbohydrates with saturated fats. You know, that's not it

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: doesn't even make any sense. That's not what you replace

21
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 3: them with. There's plenty of randomized controlled studies, really good

22
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 3: quality studies that show when you replace saturated fat with

23
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 3: unsaturated fat, you know, polyontaturated monountaturated you actually improve every

24
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 3: marker for heart disease and stroke and everything else very significantly.

25
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: And there's good studies that show that high diets and

26
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 3: saturated fat increase your risk for cardiovascular disease, so that

27
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 3: this makes no sense at all.

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of crazy.

29
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: For example, the vaccine connected to autism based on one

30
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: study by this doctor Wakefield who was later had his

31
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,559
Speaker 1: license taken away and his.

32
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: What he was basing his study on was just false.

33
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: I mean literally it was just straight out false. But

34
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: it's still there, right, that's what RFK is looking at.

35
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he's got a pattern going where he

36
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: seems to put things together right. So it's almost like

37
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 3: there was a movie playing and he was falling asleep

38
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 3: intermittently through the movie and then he tells you the

39
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: plot and it's all wrong because he's missing big chunks.

40
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 3: So you know, it's a good idea to reduce these

41
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 3: ultra processed foods and to reduce simple carbohydrates and the

42
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 3: kids diet. That makes sense. He had something going there,

43
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 3: and then he took a left turn with yeah, we're

44
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 3: going to replace it with saturated fats, So you.

45
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: Know, Yeah, have you ever you know, as a doctor,

46
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen pregnant women. If you ever said,

47
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: do not take tile at all, your kid's going to

48
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: be autistic?

49
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 3: No, I tell him take them.

50
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 2: Well, I got okay, got it? Just kidding, all right?

51
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: Something all right, Something you have talked about, and that's

52
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: peanut allergies and that lots of pretty serious stuff. You've

53
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: seen kids with peanut or people with peanut allergeries come

54
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: in and you could die. And so you also explained

55
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: how it's being reduced, and we have more information on that.

56
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: So tell us in children particularly what's going on with that.

57
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, So we're seeing a big drop in this in

58
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 3: peanut allergies specifically and overall in early childhood food allergies,

59
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 3: but specifically in peanut allergies because some guidance came out

60
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 3: I think it was twenty seventeen. Some guidance came out

61
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: that we talked about where you're supposed to introduce peanuts

62
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,119
Speaker 3: early in life, and it was an eighty percent reduction

63
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 3: if you were able to introduce peanuts, you know, in

64
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: the first four to six months of life. So we're

65
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 3: not talking about actual peanuts because kids that age canny peanuts,

66
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 3: they'll choke on them. You don't want to give peanut butter,

67
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 3: it's too thick and they can actually choke on that

68
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 3: as well. But when you take, you know, a teaspoon

69
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: or two of peanut butter and mix it in with

70
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 3: formula at that age, it significantly reduces the rest. So

71
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 3: it's something you want to talk about to your pedautrition

72
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 3: about because it depends on your level of risk. Like

73
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 3: a kid with severe egzema, you probably want to do

74
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 3: that kid in the office for the first time he

75
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: eats peanuts so that it can be observed. But for

76
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 3: mild ezema or no risk factors, definitely at home, you

77
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 3: GE's safe to introduce peanut into the diet. And they

78
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 3: say about two grams of peanut protein, which is about

79
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 3: two tea spoons that you would put in and mix

80
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 3: it in with formula and thin it out a little bit.

81
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: Okay, So you don't take the peanut butter and rub

82
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,679
Speaker 1: it on the gums like you do with your dog

83
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: just to enjoy looking at your dog dealing with it.

84
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, And actually I'm glad you brought that up.

85
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 3: With skin exposure, like when you're exposed for the first

86
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 3: time through skin to any of these allergens that actually

87
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 3: amps up. So if you did rub peanut butter on

88
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 3: the egzema, for example, I don't know who would do that.

89
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 3: That would actually ramp up your peanut allergy and make

90
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 3: it worse. So it's the important part is ingesting it.

91
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 3: You have to ingest it and not just have skin contact.

92
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: All right, And a story about nitrous oxide surging among

93
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: young people here in California. Now, I must tell you

94
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 1: that nitrous oxide is the one one thing I have

95
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 1: not ingested in my history of ingesting stuff like this.

96
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: And I don't know.

97
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how I miss that because I've

98
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: done everything else. But nitrous has been around for a

99
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 1: long long time and all of a sudden it's coming back.

100
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: So tell us about that one. Yeah.

101
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: So the nitrous oxide is a cast that that kids inhale.

102
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 3: You can either do it by you know, they buy

103
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 3: the whipped cream and inhale a little bit of it

104
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 3: by inhaling without tipping the can over and then you

105
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: can get the nitrous oxide off the can. Or they're

106
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 3: just buying actual canisters of a metrosoctide like what you

107
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 3: use in cooking when you can, you have a device

108
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 3: that you can plug that canister in to create whipped

109
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 3: cream and things like that. And then they even have

110
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 3: large like two to three liters tanks that you can

111
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 3: buy for food use, and kids are doing all of those.

112
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 3: So you know, when you see kids with these little

113
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 3: canisters or with balloons, because they'll fill a balloon with

114
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 3: it to inhale later, you know, you should be asking

115
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 3: questions because that's not that they're not going to clown school.

116
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 3: They are actually probably huffing, is what it's called.

117
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what are the questions? Hey, how does that

118
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: feel like? Is it better than, for example, a high

119
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: with something else? Is it good stuff? Are those the questions?

120
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 3: I mean essentially, yeah, no, that's not the questions. But

121
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 3: you know, I think a lot of parents are oblivious

122
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 3: to this, Like a lot of parents don't know about

123
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 3: this at all. And it's true that even doctors, it's

124
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 3: not something that's routinely asked in a doctor's office. We

125
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: might ask if you smoke or if you drink, but

126
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 3: we don't ask if you huff, you know, And and

127
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 3: so it's a it's a good question to add to

128
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 3: the list because it is going up significantly in number,

129
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 3: and it has bad effects. And when you do it chronically,

130
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 3: you know what happens is it actually and activates vitamin

131
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 3: B twelve and also another chemical called methyl malonic acid.

132
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: And what that does is the covering of your nerves

133
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 3: are maintained by these by vitamin B welve. You end

134
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 3: up demilinating your nerves and having serious, chronic, lifelong nerve problems.

135
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: Wow, it's no small deal, okay. And then lastly, marijuana.

136
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: That's one of the products that I have ingested many, many,

137
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: many many times. No longer, by the way, It's been

138
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: a bunch of years since I've done that. And the

139
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: question is can marijuana, which of course is now legal,

140
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: can marijuana really help you sleep? I thought listening to

141
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: this show really help you sleep, but I guess not.

142
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: So let's talk about Marrit Wanna and sleep.

143
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, so marijuana. A lot of people believe that marijuana

144
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 3: helps them sleep. There's even marijuana company sponsor studies that

145
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 3: show that marijuana helps you sleep. But the way they

146
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: do the study is they just ask the person, you know,

147
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 3: they give them some marijuana, they let them sleep, and

148
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 3: they how you sleep, and they wake up and they say,

149
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 3: I slept great, But when you do the actual studies

150
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 3: where you observe their sleep patterns, you look at those

151
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 3: stages of sleep, and you look at it over time

152
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 3: you realize that marijuana is a massive sleep disruptor. So

153
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 3: it may make you feel like you're sleeping better, but

154
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 3: if you did that more than a few days in

155
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 3: a row, you would not feel rested because you're not

156
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 3: actually getting the rest stage of sleep. It completely trashes
