0:00 A Man Ate 120 Gummy Probiotics 🦠 For Lunch
0:29 29 seconds in and we're already 😏 here
1:52 haha gummy probiotic 😋 go nom nom
2:50 stomach 😞 hurt (but is it the stomach?)
3:25 What's happening 😳 in 😳 his 😳 abdomen?
4:51 There's a country of more than 1 billion people where dentistry is not separate from medicine. As insurance spirals out of control here, separating them makes us even less healthy.
5:39 Another important clue
7:04 Despite any memes, we've told you many details of this case to give you an idea of what's happening
8:10 What 😳 is 😳 that??
10:38 Sorry Bacteria 🦠 u can't 😩 be 😖 here
11:24 So what 😲 exactly 😲 happened?
11:58 I'm definitely not wearing a different suit than earlier in the video
12:18 These are scarier than BC's case, but very rare and not likely to happen to you
13:05 Greek Yogurt good
13:19 The answer to this question might be yes. But ask your dentist for your particular case.
14:08 Take only as directed. Do not exceed suggested dosage. That's the takeaway from this video. Take care of yourself 🙏 and be well.

I used to think chubbyemu vids were a bit embellished. Then, my 30-year-old buddy had a near-fatal stroke caused by an inner ear infection. Against the odds, he made a full recovery. So, yeah... Sometimes sh*t really goes sideways.
Hope your buddy’s doing alright!
Well they are extreme examples of what can happen, not every day stuff, and often they are revealing some underlying problem.
When they were making the 'House MD' series, the writers were initially worried that they would run out of bizarre medical cases that they could make episodes out of. Then then did a little research and discovered that they would NEVER run out of bizarre medical cases. The human body is amazingly complex and we are still discovering new and unusual ways in which things can go sideways every day. Kinda makes you happy just to get by!
I’ve learned that’s the stages of being on the internet:
1. Wow, that’s crazy!
2. No way that’s possible, fake!
3. ..no, life really is that crazy.
Your buddy was a 30-year-old man presenting to the emergency room with slurred speech, paralysis with weak muscles, double vision and/or sudden visual loss, fatigue, lightheadedness, and/or vertigo. He was unable to communicate with staff that these signs and symptoms followed the onset of an inner ear infection. With the correct diagnosis and proper treatment, your buddy made a full recovery.
3:07 "Maybe something's wrong with his brain."
We crossed that threshold long before he landed in the ER.
Nah, having serious bowel issues can cause even the sanest person to do crazy things trying to fix them. Studies of IBS patients have found that people say they'd happily give up _sex_ to be able to eat whatever they wanted to again. It's truly that bad.
Look up the scene from House, M.D. about the “jelly” during his clinic hours. You’ll laugh your ass off. “We have a neurological problem…”
@@ManabiLT
Sounds like lacking basic self control and discipline problem to me.
@@sandboy5880 Right, because some internet troll that feels the need to punch down at people has the self-discipline necessary to be hyper-vigilant about what they eat, lest some tiny amount of an ingredient in it cause a flare-up that makes you want to die or, in some cases like with Chron's, literally puts them in the ER. I have to do that every day, I can only eat a couple of different meals on a regular basis and my options for occasional treat meals are quite limited.
I've been doing that for _years,_ as has everyone that suffers from things like IBS, IBD (they're different) and Crohn's Disease. Tiny amount of corn will make me badly nauseous and miserable for _hours._ Once got hit with that because the two catfish fingers I'd eaten turned out to use cornbread in the breading. Even trace amounts of gluten can make people with Crohn's disease wish they were dead for a day or more. All of us have to have iron self-control and discipline or we'd kill ourselves over all the flare-ups. Constant bowel issues destroy all quality of life for those who suffer from them.
I doubt you'd last even a week with any of those bowel issues.
@sandboy5880 I agree with both of you. If the issues are serious enough, you’ll do whatever you can to alleviate those symptoms. Poor self-control in this case, I absolutely agree, but I don’t think many of us truly understand his mental state at the time. Pain makes people do irrational things.
So 119 gummy probiotics is the limit

"He accidentally ate 120 gummies for lunch" is a sentence I'd never thought I'd hear.
tbf they are gummy candies so it could hve been a mistake
This man ate 120 weed gummies for lunch, 3 weeks later, he's still stoned.
With the way science and medicine is weakened by red tape, corporatization and politics, this won't be the last goofy thing you'll hear a doctor say.
I ate an entire bottle of Maalox chewables when I was a kid cuz I thought they were candy. Didn’t end up doing anything to me luckily.

My mom could be on this channel in the future. She put 8 ounces of myrrh essential oil on her whole body to anoint herself. Her eyes became needles, her blood pressure went so high she couldn't communicate, she had seizures. It was nuts. I am glad she is alive.
Update: it seems like as of today she is mostly if not all okay from it. I should have said her pupils became needles. Thank you to all the concerned people. I honestly have no outlet to talk to anyone about how crazy she is getting outside of my therapist once a week. My sister still won't have anything to do with her, so it is all on me. She never lets go of pain. 😥
I wish I could teach her to forgive.
...But why did she do that?!
That would be an interesting story. Glad she’s ok now
Don't play with essential oils!
how does that happen? does the skin somehow absorb the oil?
The essential oils scam is harmful. They always waaaaaaay overstate their values, which leads to something like your moms situation. Makes me angry
Bro wanted his Biotics to be as Pro as possible
They were very "pro" indeed.
I'm assuming the gut infection causing a major case of the runs was C-Diff, yeah? My father had gotten C-Diff after receiving vancomycin for a bad staph infection in his right big toe. His infectious disease doctor actually recommended he take a probiotic supplement (by following the normal dosage, of course) to combat C-Diff's tendency to grow back after a full course of antibiotics. Not only did his C-Diff never come back after a full course of Dificid, but he felt even better than before. I think the moral of the story here is that everything is best when consumed in moderation. Anything in extreme excess can be deadly.
Side note, watching your videos has inspired me to apply to medical school to become a neurologist! Thank you Chubbyemu!

Registered Dental Assistant here and it absolutely terrifies and angers me that the United States keeps medical and dental care separate. Not only does it make it totally unaffordable, but also limits access to dental education. Most of my patients are over the age of 60 and 80% (not an actually stat but an educated guess) tell me that they were never taught the importance of taking care of your teeth and how it effects your overall health. Our office is small (just 1 doctor, 1 hygienist, 1 office manager and 1 assistant) so we don’t see a lot of patients but I’ve seen enough to know that if medical and dental would be together I would have healthier and happier patients. We do a lot a work that we know we are never going to see a dime for simply because they are suffering and no one will help them
If it makes you feel any better, this arrangement is quite common even in countries with socialised healthcare (like here in Denmark; dental is not covered after turning 18).
@@casperkampthat’s crazy when dental health is just as important to our well being
What’s also crazy is eye doctors are often not covered by most insurances here either.
Imagine having dentists in your country.
*cries in UK*
a pro-bono dentist, now I've heard everything!
Thank your own advocacy group, the ADA, for this. They want to keep things as expensive and profitable as possible.
I love how organs are so intolerant of random things, two bottles of pepto bysmol, gas station sushi, bleach, 120 probiotic gummies, a gallon of soy sauce, pesticides
Wimps
It's not really random but I get your drift. Most of these are simple overdoses. The overdose causes a chemical change that throws the body's homeostasis way off. The pesticide is just pure poison. There's no safe dose of that. The sushi was not shelf stable, which also sabotages homeostasis. And of course people wait until they can no longer speak or see to get care, so that adds 3d10 damage.
dont forget the back alley wagon chicken tacos
The gas station sushi was tainted before it left the factory.
Foreign metals, accelerating rates of temperature.
My mom died from infective endocarditis. They figured it came from her teeth. They pulled all of her teeth and had her on IV antibiotics. But 2 days before she was supposed to have valve replacement surgery, she had a stroke. She lived 2 months after that before she died at home.
Please take care of your teeth.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My dad also had a broken heart valve, started out really inconspicuous with him being a bit short of breath.
GP thought it was pneumonia at first so they prescribed him something to manage the shortness of breath.
But then one day he nearly had a heart attack or infarct (i can't remember) in his sleep and he drove himself to the hospital, which was about 30 minutes away.
Once there they quickly realised he had almost died and rushed him to a bigger hospital ,with one of the best cardiology departments in the country, by ambulance.
Took them a few days to figure out what exactly was going on but eventually they replaced his heart valve with the valve of a pig's heart, which I think is kinda neat lol.
Anyway, he recovered in full and his heart has been so healthy as of late that they are scaling back some if his cardiology appointments.
Modern medicine is so amazing and human bodies are insanely durable. A pig's heart valve? Sounds medieval yet futuristic at the same time lol. Glad he's doing okay now
My parent had heart surgery a few months ago. I was surprised how seriously they took his dental health before and after the surgery. Turns out proper dental care is vital for overall health but the US doesn't treat it as such. Dental and vision should ALWAYS be included in healthcare and it's bull$hit that it's not.
Many countries treat is as separate from basic healthcare, unfortunately.
$ is right!
If you have too much bad bacteria in your teeth and body you have dental issues, because you don't have enough good bacteria to even make sure the teeth don't get affected by bad bacteria.
It also depends on genetics as well, because I don't have teeth problems anymore.
Profits over people.
any problems you have with your dental needs tell you how the rest of the body is doing
I dont think you've ever described a medical condition as terrifying as "vegetation on the heart". Definitely going to brush my teeth for 120 minutes after watching this.
this person brushed their teeth for 2 hours straight. this is what happened to their mouth.
@@demonindenim brushed until their gums bled, this is how bacteria colonized their heart
We are recommended the 2-2-2-2 method. Put a 2cm string of poothtaste on your brush and brush for 2 minutes, 2 times a day. Finally after brushing your teeth don’t eat for 2 hours.

@@Soundbrigadeand before too. Eating carbs just before brushing can over time damage your teeth
In Bulgaria, we make yogurt using the Lactobacillus bulgaricus bacteria and it's considered a medicine, but we eat it like every day as normal yogurt, we've made it for like hundreds of years and never got a case of someone getting very ill from it. Some foreigners however, can't tolerate it very well and get symptoms similar to drinking fermented milk.
I'm sure there were cases, only the medical system in Bulgaria is so bad that nobody noticed or announced it. Many people die without correct diagnosis.
If you sat and ate 4 pounds of your special yogurt every day I think you’d be sick too. It’s not a matter of whether probiotics are bad (they’re not) but instead a matter of dosage and that he took FAR too much of it
@@maddieb.4282 I agree. The dose makes the poison.
Probiotics are great for recovering from antibiotics however do NOT take 50 of them a day
Agreed. I make my own naturally fermented kimchi and hot sauces and have never in over 30 years had a problem. Have also taken high potency pro biotic supplements per medical advice after a treatment with a very strong antibiotic, but I followed the instructions I was given to the letter. The problem is that many times people think if a little is helpful then excess is great

@@Omerfayyaz2001 Stem-cell and lab-grown organ tech is really coming along lately. I hope things like heart valve replacements eventually become as simple as pulling a fresh scaffold out of a meat incubator in a closet.

I had a n aortic valve replacement (to fix a genetic defect) and got infective endocarditis on the artificial valve 3 months later. The new valve was basically about to fall off which would be very fatal. They did an immediate re-operation to replace the valve again. I had to go on 6 weeks of aggressive IV antibiotics to make sure the infection wouldn’t come back. The cause of the infection was never identified. It was 10 years ago on March 15.
That's because they were the cause of infection and didn't want a lawsuit. Nosocomial infections are common unfortunately
@@sempergumby2341 You still wouldn't be able to sue them for it even if they said so. If people started sueing for nosocomial infections, hospitals and healthcare would go extinct overnight. No doctor would look at any patient out of fear of getting sued. And it's.ot even the doctors' fault - some bacteria are just really, really good at surviving and spreading.
@@sempergumby2341 That's like me suing you when you coughed from 6 ft away and I happened to get a cold, claiming you coughed on me.
@raerohan4241 on the contrary, an investigation could and often does find egregious violations of safety protocols usually involving failure of proper applications aseptic technique throughout the hospital. Not just in the O.R. either, but even the centralized sterilization department where the operating equipment is sterilized.
@gachatana9656 No, that's a big false equivalency. One can be spread from airborne droplets or contacting a contaminated surface and then contact with mucosal membranes, from any number of people or surfaces, delivering a viral load of varying ranges altering the period of incubation and subsequent symptoms. It is hard to pinpoint the origin, while this case came from direct contact during the specific few hours someone's chest is opened during surgery and the heart being directly contacted. It was either the O.R. team that violated safety protocols, or the sterilization team that was responsible for sterilizing those specific instruments. Either way, it is why they hammer this into healthcare workers' heads during college and what feels like every month with mandatory safety meetings, online training, and review boards. It is also a big reason malpractice insurance exists as well as CGIP and OSHA inspections.
Educate yourself and stop spewing ignorant fallacies trying to gaslight people who actually know the job.
Great video as always. I like the development in editing.
It is frankly criminal to me how little regard is given to dental care in the US. Everything from it being separate insurance to the lack of record sharing and lack of effort on both sides of someone's providers to bridge the gap...your teeth can literally kill you. I feel so strongly about this because of the way it nearly destroyed my family. My mom had a knee replacement, and while it was current practice at the time to give preventative antibiotics after a such a replacement and before dental work for 2 years thereafter, following that 2 years they stopped. She then got her very next dental work done without them, and she nearly died.
She'd developed a massive infection on that artificial knee from that dental work, and it festered so long she went septic and developed necrotizing fasciitis. She lost 80% of her thigh, had to have her calf sliced open from ankle to knee to help it drain, and spent a month in ICU, then 6 months in a level 1 trauma center's burn unit, and much more time after that in assisted care. She lives with me now, can miraculously still walk despite all the damage - frankly she's lucky she didn't lose the leg, let alone her life. But she's forever in pain from all the damage and the changes made to her walking gait that cause her to put her weight down on that leg improperly. I'm terrified she's going to fall one of these days when I'm not around to help her.
She's actually an anonymous case study on the report that made it standard practice for dentists to give those preventative antibiotics for much longer after artificial replacements. However, nothing can heal her mental health or chronic pain or the fact she's going to remain partially crippled the rest of her life, not to mention her ongoing fear of dentists for understandable reasons, but I can't get her to seek treatment she needs for some dying teeth. It's just so frustrating.
As to the probiotics side of this, I'm a big believer in them, but I refuse to take any medical gummies period simply because of their treat-like qualities. At minimum I feel like people need to take them VERY seriously - keep them locked away from children, take them only as directed, understand that probiotics are not a replacement to but rather a supplement with antibiotics, and even then should probably wait if one is currently suffering from any kind of internal open wound like dental work or any other infection in the gut. Bacteria is still bacteria and even with the good ones, there is always a possibility of too much of a good thing. And for the love of all that is holy, brush your dang teeth.
Canada has dental separated from health too.
Holy shit that's awful
@@BassGal92access the UK and Germany and...
Brush & Floss twice a day?
So sorry for what your mom went through. I am wondering if by any chance your mom had other underlying conditions or any complications with the knee replacement surgery. The guidelines in Canada stopped supporting prophylactic antibiotic for dental procedures for joint replacements with no complications since 2016.
I was dealing with a lot of strange medical problems since last summer. My motto to motivate me to not lose faith in fighting for myself was that “I don’t want to be the subject of a ChubbyEmu video” and finally got an MEI and they scheduled me with a neurologist because they discovered what they think is MS. My pcp thought I was just “beginning to notice my age.” I’m 30 and I told her my retiree neighbor shouldn’t be out pacing me mowing the lawn.

The idea that it is even possible to get an infection inside of your heart is horrifying to me
Yes - It is disquieting! Maybe the reason the bacteria are able to adhere and reproduce is because it's on the bottom side of the valves, and blood rushes past it all the time. The white cells aren't there long enough to see the problem and phagocytize the bacteria because they keep getting flushed away by the next heartbeat-full of blood.
Pretty sure you can get in infection in anything.
It tends to happen a lot in IV drug users.

I'm always amazed at how thorough so many of these medical teams are in these vids. I almost died of pneumonia as a kid b/c the quacks I was taken to see first called it a "chest cold" and then said it had been so long that I must be faking it to get to stay home from school. I went to a diff place where the lady who became my new dr heard me get haflway thru a breath before she snapped "get her to x-ray NOW".... I found out 20min later that I was 2-3 days away from dying of walking pneumonia if I went w/o treatment b/c of the quacks in my previous clinic. :/
What was the previous clinic?
@@deltalima6703 a duck pond.
Yooo similar experience, but it was the local regional hospital. There are too many doctors and nurses who let personal prejudices and/or unprofessional behaviour, incompetency, ego, etc. affect the quality of care they give their patients.
story:
Felt sharp pain for months in my abdomen but only when I slept, until I collapsed to my knees and had to hold back my screams [I would've screamed the loudest in my life, but was volunteering at a daycare and childhood trauma is not a nice gift] twice 6 days apart. Went to the emergency room twice. Saw two different doctors, first young and second old. First said, and I quote, "There is absolutely no possibility for you to be suffering anything more than a muscle strain/pulled muscle. Take tylenol, take this topical numbing cream, and you'll be fine in two to three weeks." and his reasons were age [14, "You are too young for any serious health issue, in fact I won't even bother for x-rays or tests because we both know they'll come back clean], gender [not his at the time], and physical fitness [I appeared fatter than I was] . . . he should've been held accountable but we didn't get his name.
The second doctor took one look at me, left, came back asking my mother to take a picture of me to compare to a photo from a month or two prior. We could see what was wrong instantly. I was literally bright yellow compared to my typical olive tan so nobody could tell that over the last month or less I had been getting progressively sicker bc everyday was more yellow than the last.
An ultrasound fifteen minutes later confirmed it for us; I was on the verge of liver failure. My gallbladder and gallduct were so obstructed that nothing could leave my liver and it was essentially eating itself away. I was immediately taken for thorough ultrasound scans, xrays, and then over the next two days I underwent two emergency operations, one of which had to be done out-of-town.
Sure a week is a week...but according to the second doctor, he guesstimated I'd have hit liver failure within the next 2 weeks at most.
And then a nurse pushing my gurney to the operating room fatshamed me on the way and made assumptions about my dietary habits regarding McDonald's in front of my mum (she blamed my situation on eating fast food every day, a burger or two at least, but shut up when my mother told her off---read: shouted at her--and I made sure to smugly inform her I preferred fruits and veggies over meat, dairy, bread, etc. and my McD's order at the time was a ceasar salad, grilled chicken on the side [I never ate it], and used only half the dressing; with orange or apple juice depending on my mood).
Yup, you can't sleep because you are coughing so much? Here's a codeine syrup prescription. Next doctor, let's get you to the hospital
What do you call someone who graduated top of the class with flying colours, and what do you call someone who barely passed?

I just wanted to say the phonology is extremely helpful, breaking down words to understand their definition is an amazing excercise that will let you know the definition of words without having to check, and I've been obsessed with it my whole life, it always helps when you break down a biology word into the origins of each part of the word.

Every time i visit the dentist I have to take antibiotics for at least three days before I get any work on my teeth done. I was born with a very rare heart condition and due to the surgery my valves can catch bacteria more easily than a normal person never happened yet, but this is the exact reason why i need to take antibiotics beforehand.

This is damn near exactly what happened to me last year. I was 29 too, and had a vegetative growth of staph bacteria in my tricuspid heart valve and horrible sepsis. Aka bacterial endocarditis.
I almost died and had to have heart surgery to remove the growth. No blood clots whatsoever luckily.
i.v clindamycin and flucloxacillin for multiple weeks and a 3 month hospital stay later i was released and am completely fine now. Even like 50 years ago this wouldve been a completely life-altering thing and i would've needed a pacemaker, meds, and a mechanical valve for the rest of my life. I'm also very lucky it wasnt MRSA.
I owe my life to the surgeon and cardiologists who figured out what was going on with me and fixed me up ❤
I Uber a lot. and the amount of horror stories I hear (bc my area also happens to have a shitton of hospitals) is just astounding. One lady, was talking about how she was visiting her bro, who had a bacterial growth over his heart/lungs, and spread to his brain. So I told her, "well thank God you got him admitted to a hospital, if they keep him on antibiotics and stabilize him, full recovery ez) and she said how she almost didn't bc her bro kept telling her not to for like a week straight.
Then I bring up the topic of health and diet, and i recommend stocking supplements/vitamins etc. and keeping in touch w/ others so you can ping off eachother when either of u looks off. and she tried to give me an excuse about how she can't justify the cost of getting vitamins.
The lady smokes, but she won't put 3 bucks aside a year for a bottle of vitamin C?!
@@bobzillathebabykicker2981 Most people tbh. Friend has numerous health issues, is obese, and assumes he won't live to 40. Eats junk food all day, hasn't even bothered to buy a bottle of oregano oil I recommended years ago but buys every new FOTM game that comes out, and complains he's always low on money.
The lack of nutritional education (or even logical thinking) in this country, if not the entire world, is astonishing. It should be taught in schools since it's so important to actually living, whereas crap like history, chemistry and animal biology isn't. Or worse, it is taught, but it's completely wrong (US food pyramid).
2 billion people in the world are iodine deficient. 1.2 billion are obese. And even if you try to educate folks, many don't even listen, or worse; call you wrong. It's lunacy.
I lost my wife of over 41 years to sepsis, rapidly advancing from a dental infection on a weekend. Within around 6 hours of initial pain, she had died while I was outside having a cigarette. Initiated CPR to no avail, while on the phone with 911. Brief interruption to open the door for law enforcement, who ran and retrieved his AED to no avail. EMT's arrived, took over compressions to no avail when the paramedics arrived and plugged in the monitor. No pattern, not even pulseless electrical activity and I recommended discontinuing CPR (old military medic here, I know those monitors and treatments intimately). They continued for another 20 minutes, then called the hospital for the code to be called.
Four hours earlier, she'd helped me carry in $400 in groceries.
Couldn't eat for a week, as every time I saw that food, I saw her carrying it inside for me.
Two weeks of nightmares of her ribs fracturing under my compressions.

I never would have guessed it could do all that without even swallowing the main body of the gummy. I sometimes drink probiotic stuff like Kombucha in excess, but it never feels like it's altering my health in a perceptible way.
I just found this channel and am now addicted to the videos. Subscribed!

I take a probiotic supplement every day, 50 billion live cultures. However, mine is a capsule which i take with a meal. My doctor recommended it because i had some gut issues after an antibiotic course (actually after a wisdom tooth removal). He had said at the time that most bacteria you get in a probiotic yogurt that reaches your stomach likely wont survive the stomach acid to the point they can replicate later, but a longer lasting capsule has a better chance of surviving the roughly 6-8 hours it will take to get to the large intestine. But ye, he definitely wasnt a fan of probiotic yogurts etc, said basically most healthy people will get nothing more than bacteria in their mouth from them, where it wont do any good lol.
How bad was the immune system when wisdom tooth removal requires antibiotics.
@HappyBeezerStudios -- there was an abscess after forming deep below the tooth which is why it had to come out. After the removal of an abscess you will be prescribed antibiotics.
Kefir milk is a good one to try though. Fermented products are good for the gut. But glad you are having success with the pills.
The thing with fermented foods is that they have to be a regular part of your diet for a large enough population to be established in your guts (since few make it at any given time). You also have to eat fibrous foods that will feed these bacteria. Most people would benefit immensely from both, but if for whatever reason someone isn't able to make that change, then yeah, a probiotic supplement will do more for you than eating yogurt for a few days.
@@vanessac1721
As someone who is lactose intolerant since birth... Thanks, but no thanks. I think my gut feels a lot better without any milk products.

Cute
The statement at the end about how eating yogurt and having other risk factors may correspond to endocarditis is really interesting, since for much of human history, we've eaten fermented foods that contain lactic acid bacteria, like yogurt or sauerkraut. This wasn't just because it tasted good, but also because it allowed longer term storage of perishable foods like vegetables and milk, since that bacteria would out-compete spoiling bacteria that would make it unsafe. Modern consumption of fermented foods has now become more of a dietary choice or trend rather than a survival necessity, so I'd really like to see what the incidences of that type of endocarditis is in cultures that still rely heavily on fermented foods for survival.
That would be interesting. If those cultures have low rates of other risk factors, like diabetes, they might not have an increased rate of infectious endocarditis.
I think South Korea would be a good subject seeing they eat quite a far bit of Kimchi (though not for survival) and is a first world country with good healthcare
@@amicaaranearum Most literature I've personally seen involving such communities (ie. what little is available as a layman) do suggest much lower instances of insulin resistance that correlates with lower consumption of most known dietary risk factors.
Some cultures (like turkey, georgia, etc ---> Joghurt/Kefir!) used to and still drink a lot of tea. There are some studies suggesting tea might protect against cavities, maybe (my guess) in spite of poor dental hygiene.
It's been known for at least 30 years That eating Milk / Dairy products when you get old is really dangerous. My parents got an health boost from switching to standard yohgurt to vegetables ones + Vitamin D.
I got a case of infective endocarditis caused by a small mouth injury at work. I was born with a defected heart valve so the vegetation spread rapidly, within days of the first symptoms. I got what the surgeons called the commando procedure which is a double valve replacement, aortic root replacement, and repair the inside fibrous body. Hats off to the ones that spend decades of their life learning this complex craft
Glad to see you advertising Opera for research purposes. The tools it has for organising online research are honestly amazing.

Nice
This is, as you say, an extreme example, but it really speaks to an issue I have of people calling things in the microbiome "good bacteria" versus "bad bacteria". It suggests, to some people, that there's no risks involved, because they're helpful, beneficial bacteria, not harmful ones.
A good example is staphylococcus epidermidis. Very common as part of the skin flora. And even staphylococcus aureus, which isn't rare (about 21-30%) on the skin and upper respiratory tract, but can also cause issues starting with things like pimples, but can be as bed pneumonia, meningitis and even to sepsis.
There is a similar thing with medications like Methylphenidate (Adderall). Because it benefits people like me with ADHD, Neurotypical people looking for a way focus on studies assume it will give them a boost in concentration. In reality, there is little to no scientific evidence that it has any significant effect on people who don't need it, but is associated with increased satisfaction and a more positive perception of one's own preformance.
That's cause this medication is basically diet Methamphetamine. And yes, it can get you high.
And as a tangent, I wouldn't take this if I didn't need to. You can't consume that much caffine, alcohol is COMPLETELY off the table. I sweat a bunch and get dehydrated easily, and you can forget to eat and drink cause it supresses your hunger.
The phrase "The only difference between medicine and poison is the dose" really needs to be stressed more when it comes to this sort of stuff.
All things are poison, and nothing is without poison; the dosage alone makes it so a thing is not a poison.
I have IBS and while I knew probiotics might help, I didn't try to figure it out on my own. I asked my GP and took the one she recommended (Align Probiotic). I only take it at the dosing it says to a well. It has helped and if I stop taking it my IBS gets worse, so I'm stuck using it for the rest of my life.
It's "good" when it's in your gut... not your heart.

Dental health is so important to heart health. Had gestational hypertension with kids 4, 5, and 6; that developed into preeclampsia with 5 and 6. During that time I had broken teeth. Pregnancy 7, got a lot of my teeth taken care of, two root canals and 8 rounds of antibiotics for various infections. No hypertension through the pregnancy.

If you slow down the video then click on the exact moment youll see a wisdom tooth trying to come out next to it is a pencil drawn face.

Exactly why dental care should be included with normal health care. Dental care is so important for your overall health and many people struggle alone to have health insurance. So I'm sure we have a ton of people with really bad dental care in the US. Hope this changes one day. No matter how little you make you deserve health / dental insurance. Providing for our populations health care makes us stronger as a whole.
Teeth are luxury bones! /s
Not just the US but here in Canada (hopefully it will be included soon with the deal going on with the federal government)
Always nice to see the secret actor in the stock footage
The fact that we consider dental records/dentistry in general completely separate from medical is insane considering how much each affects the other and your body health.
Well, now I know why after an extremely long and arduous wisdom tooth extraction ordeal the dentists insisted I get stuck in the butt with an additional anti-biotic injection in addition to the normal course of oral anti-biotics. Fortunately for me, I don't presume to argue with doctors over things I know nothing about. 🤣
Well, I hope that at least, unlike me, You got a proper anaesthesia for such procedure (extraction).
For me, that was an hour-long drilling out of tooth pieces, with anaesthesia being completely inefficient. As a child.
I don't remember getting any antibiotics, though.
Are you sure he wasn't injecting a tracking device to siphon off you vital essence?

I didn't get any antibiotics. I just had my lone wisdom tooth removed last week. It grew about a year ago. ..I'm 52

4:31 classic "are you gojo because you're the strongest" moment.
infective endocarditis usually happens in drug addicts whom share syringes. immunocompromised people catch it as well as a secondary infection. Sometimes you can find old calcifications on their mitral valves without them even knowing about it which can be mistaken for active vegetation if the echo Cardiographer isn't experienced.
I'm just puzzled why it's call vegetation.
Just then Chubbyemu said to the spleen, "Are you inflated because you are clotted or are you clotted because inflated?"

OMG guys it's the man in all those math problems!
I had breast cancer, and I was learning about how normal food acts in the body against cancer. I was also following a very successful course of treatment outlined by my oncologist and surgeon.
When I told some friends about it, one friend said ginger is good for nausea. Most times I know that's true for me. But not while having cancer. My stomach really hurt. I was also surprised I didn't gravitate toward citrus fruits for vitamin C. But I knew fresh produce has vitamin C, so no problem. Especially since I always started in the produce aisle in my grocery.
One of my friends suggested probiotics. I told her I've got enough going on inside. I don't want to add on any bacteria that might cause something worse.
Now that you put out this video, I'm glad I didn't.
Good call. Probiotics are not innocuous. They aren't FDA regulated so you can't guarantee what you're ingesting in terms of the amount and type of bacteria. Also, your gut is full of several thousands of different types of bacteria that have a different balance for each person. Why would a probiotic with 5 to 10 types bacteria solve a dysbiosis? Additionally, some probiotic strains have been engineered to be antibiotic resistant so when people take them with antibiotics they aren't killed. How do you treat a resistant probiotic infection?
Probiotics are a waste of money. You're better off just trying to get back to your normal diet so your flora can restore itself.
Ginger is good for nausea but it has a strong taste. It's sometimes better to take it with sugar or in a pill
My oncologist gave me ginger tea for nausea
@@kathleenvargovich9539 did it help? I'm always fascinated hearing how the exact same substance affects different people in such vastly different ways.... Or even the same person in different circumstances.
You are so intelligent! Please tell your friends to shut the fuck up. There are many souls lost to alternative bullshit. Steve Jobs didn't die because cancer outpaced modern medicine. He would have been okay if he wasn't so fucking obsessed with "plant based diets" and random shit made in a lab that a guru sold to him. THAT is what killed him. He would have survived the cancer otherwise.
Still "Best underrated Channel" on YT ♡
0:53 had to rewind more than a few times 🤣🤣🤣
Laughed so hard I couldn't concentrate on the plot anymore
i had a major stomach surgery back in 2011 and i remember once i was adding solid foods back to my diet having many issues. I started taking probiotics and still do today. I have however been doing this with my doctors knowledge and advice. To much of anything can make you sick or even kill you, even things usually good for you such as water. Stay safe.
Absolutely, it's all about maintaining homeostasis!
Medical Monday is more of a feeling than a day of the week
Having the actual subject give his testimony at the end of the video really helped me understand the post-treatment effects.
It's a thin line we walk many times oblivious to how close to edge we are... until we cross it.
Blowing out a heart valve is a life long issue. A recovery... one reason I take it easy when I have a fever. Lots of things can break if you push too hard.
Megadeth, Grateful Dead and Slayer... Some good choices.
Also thank you for making me scared of probiotics.
Also maybe a topic for the future... Fungal infections ? My mom had Aspergillus growing in her ear and it took many doctors to diagnose it. Most sent her away thinking "common ear infection" even though she told them there was black clumps of mold coming out of her ear. I actually diagnosed it first with help from a nurse friend by looking at those clumps under a microscope. I also know someone who was a plumber lost a lung to Aspergillus, black mold isn't something to take lightly.
Plain silly
Very interesting video. I'm a PhD student researching probiotic lactobacillus engineering and I was not aware of these instances of opportunistic lactobacillus infection. Food for thought
