      You're actually wrong about kids getting hyper after they eat. Kids 100% get hyper after they eat. In schools we schedule things around this fact. If the kids go play outside then go eat then go back to class, you just wasted half the afternoon. You need to make them eat then send them to play outside before going back to class. I absolutely believe you that anatomically this makes no sense, but that just means there's another non-medical explanation, not that it doesn't happen

    As a doctor with severe allergies (anaphylaxis) myself, your point about allergies is so important and we need better awareness!! You can grow out of allergies but you can also develop them! For example, penicillins are one of our most effective antibiotic groups; if you’ve grown out of your allergy, it might be the best option! Love your vids Dr Mike 😊

      Yup I’ve never had any sort of allergies, but recently I had to take amoxicillin for a tooth infection. I mostly just had a rash and hives for like 4 days or so after taking it. Weird it wasn’t during, but after. I’m not sure how you’re allergic after it should be out of your system? But yeah now I have that allergy apparently. I’ve only taken it once and was fine, but this is years later. 🤷🏻‍♀️

      I developed a shrimp allergy when I was twelve and didn't realize it was an allergy, because all it did was make my throat scratchy. It wasn't until I was sixteen when I touched shrimp again and it made my throat swell up a good bit, but not enough to cut off airwayd, that I realized I had an allergy to it. It died down within an hour but I've stayed clear of it ever since, I don't want to test wether or not if I'm still allergic or not because there's that chance it could have developed into a more severe allergy then it was before

    The sugar rush study I read had kids and parents in a room, and in one part the parents watched the kids play with toys and each other.
    Then the kids were given sugary snacks, and the researchers noted that while the children didn't behave any differently, the PARENTS were the ones that started acting differently.
    In expecting their children's behaviour to worsen, they started intervening in situations that previously they were okay with.
    When interviewed the parents had to rate their children's behaviour before and after, and the researchers found that in almost all cases, the parents rated their children's behaviour as way worse on the sugar, even though objectively, the difference in the children's actual behaviour was negligible.

    SLUG QUESTION ANSWERED: Water moves in order to dilute salts & slugs have incredibly porous bodies meaning water moves through their flesh very easily. By pouring salt on slugs you’re drawing so much water out of their bodies that they dehydrate and die. (salt has a similar effect on humans, just not to the same extent. It’s why we get thirsty after eating salty foods)

Electrolytes after a workout come out through sweat, hence why having an electrolyte rich drink handy is a good thing while also having pure water. While the thirst we get from eating salty objects exists you'll more likely simply have "dry" mouth rather than become outright thirsty.

    About salt killing slugs:
    Slugs and snails, like us, have a very high water content that they need to maintain to survive, but unlike us their skin is very porous, this is how they get their water. They don't drink water like other animals do, they absorb it from the environment (this is why they are often seen in large quantities in the morning when there is dew or after a rain shower). The trouble with absorbing water through your skin is that it goes both ways, and they can very easily lose water through their skin. When you cover them in salt, the salt draws the water out of their bodies via osmosis, causing the slug to die of dehydration. The reason humans can eat loads of salt, is because we're so much larger, and therefore have a much much larger amount of water to expend (we also have much more sophisticated methods of retaining water), but the same principle does apply to humans. If you eat too much salt, you may feel like your tongue, mouth and throat are dry even if you drink water - because they are filled with less water than they should be. And consuming large amount of salt can lead to comas and even death due to removing too much water from cells. It's just that the amount of salt that requires is huge, compared to the handful of salt being all it would take to kill a slug.

    As someone with a penicillin allergy, it can be extremely frustrating that doctors never believe I'm allergic. When my daughter was born via c-section, the anesthesiologist was dead set on using penicillin with my spinal. As I'm being rolled into the ER, he's telling me he really doubts I'll have a reaction since most people who think they're allergic really aren't, but if I do have a reaction, I'm in the best place to have one. About 5 minutes into the c-section, I start vomiting, my blood pressure bottoms out, and he's pushing fluids like crazy to try to keep it up. He pushed so much fluid that my heart started struggling, so now they've got a cardiac specialist in there who ended up having to monitor me for days. And I couldn't hold my newborn for hours afterwards because I was so out of it and felt like crawling out of my own skin. It was a truly awful experience and 100% avoidable. A couple of years later I had strep throat and even though I told the doc at that very appointment that I am allergic to penicillin, what drug do you think she called in to the pharmacy?? Very, very frustrating!

    Mythbusters actually had a thing about smelling fear [though I still see that as describing monsters with presumably better senses in movies, not human people]. A nose specialist came in, and pretty accurately guessed which samples of sweat were of fear. So apparently you can detect a few things, it's just not reliable unless you're always smelling those things.

    Little known fact! The Eustachian tube is just the vessel in which the pressure in the ears is equalized. It's actually your inner ear cavity behind the Tympanic Membrane (eardrum) that is causing that pressure/release when you feel the popping in your ears. The eardrum begins to flex inward when negative pressure happens in the inner ear and pops back out when pressure is normalized. This is why yawning or opening your mouth wide helps reduce that pressure since the Eustachian tube is indeed located in the back of your throat and adjusts pressure accordingly.

Now I am comfortable saying I’m no longer allergic to cats, and given how my allergic reaction steadily dropped in severity I think I can accurately state that life with a hypoallergenic cat had a significant effect.

    RE growing out of allergies:
    I had an egg allergy as a little kid, I could still eat cake or similar, but would get a really itchy mouth and a bit of redness around the mouth if I ate an omelette or similar that was mostly eggs.
    It went away when I got older without me ever realising until someone made double Dutch pancakes (bacon and egg in the pancakes) and I got concerned that I might have a reaction but nothing happened. Tested it a few times afterwards and I have no reaction at all even eating boiled/scrambled eggs alone with nothing else.
    Always wondered the mechanism as to how that works, does the immune system just realise it's not a threat somehow or what?

    Fun fact: According to the latest research in the microbiome field, taking probiotics is probably not so smart of an idea. On one hand, in most store-bought probiotics, the number of bacteria that are actually alive and fit enough to colonize your guts are negligible. On the other hand, a healthy micribiome is not just about the amount of bacteria, but the diversity of the bacterial population. Most of these probiotics are made of one bacterial species, typically Lactobacillus species, which are prominent in the gut micobiome, but not the most prominent. So, overall, taking probiotics, or food that supposedly can be good for the gut microbiome has a minimal effect on the recolonisation of your gut, and might be even harmful in some cases because it shifts the natural diversity of the bacteria. The only surefire way to build back a degraded microbiome is fecal transplant, but, for obvious reasons, that is only used as a last resort. (Sincerely, a microbiologist)

    I never knew that not wanting to eat was a known effect of GAD! I have had severe GAD from childhood and unless someone offered me an exceptionally rare treat, I just never wanted to eat because my stomach was always in knots and eating made me nauseous. Mealtime with the family was a huge ordeal for me (which made it hard on the whole family, leading to a lot of fighting and more anxiety). Then as a teen I was left to my own devices a lot, so I would go days without eating. Needless to say, I got extremely sick, but no one really intervened, or even thought to ask me if I was eating. I got so weak that it eventually scared me enough to propel me to start forcing myself to eat small amounts regularly. Over time it became easier and I was able to get both this and the GAD under control, but it took years of therapy, meds and consistent effort.

    THANKS for confirming that probiotic foods CAN actually help you feel better during and after an antibiotic therapy. I was starting to think it was all just my imagination (placebo effect, which I'm fine with as long as it helps), but hearing from a doctor that eating my yummy bifidus yoghurt with some fresh fruit mixed into it might actually have a positive impact makes it even tastier. As for the the allergy question: I think I somehow trained my immune system to no longer overreact when confronted with cat allergenes. When I got my cat, I sneezed every single time I cleaned her litter box, and her little scratches would itch for hours. At first, I sometimes had to take antihistamines in the morning so I wouldn't have red itching eyes all day. However, over the course of the months, things got better. My theory is that through her little scratches, she brought a tiny amount of allergenes under my skin, which is similar to what they do in certain desensitization therapies. Also, I never started freaking out and trying to avoid contact with allergenes. I WANTED to get used to it, and it worked. Sometimes I tell people that I bascially just willed my body into accepting the fact that I love cats, lol.

Wish I could have arranged to have gotten her everytime! Then discovered that a local CO OP was only selling at the door. A lot more expensive, but worth it for the freshness. (Only bought greens, and I could see them before they went into a paper bag).

      I agree. I've been given moldy produce on more than one occasion.

      It seems like a lot of people out there are very unbothered by nasty produce. I get grocery deliveries and pick up orders from the Kroger near me and also frequently have problems with what they pick out for me. I've actually seen regular people at the grocery store just grab some produce and go without checking it

      I mean … that line is so clearly just marketing parroted back. A bit disappointing, really. :-/

    Funny thing about smelling a disease-when my mom was growing up (so, the 1930s) the pediatrician in town could have a kid walk in with just a fever and runny nose and tell that they had measles just by the smell.

    I can answer the slug question. It’s because of Osmosis, water is drawn outside of the slug by the salt.
