I'm a doctor, ex-feature film maker and professional ball slapper (against walls that is). I make sciencey videos with a Stealth Health spin - i.e. off the mainstream and for topics you might not think of as 'traditional medicine'. I try to be a bit funny, a bit educational and where I can, I'll try to make you think as well.
Most vids are researched pretty heavily and I'll link you to the sources where I can. No pseudo-science here. Probably.
Subscribing to this channel is considered to be an excellent source of life enrichment, so what are you waiting for?

Doctor Reacts to PewDiePie and Steroids - Hot Take
Thank you so much for this video! very helpful, informative and clear. It should have a lot more views :)
I have MCAD and almost all of the foods & drinks that can make gout worse are all things I’m allergic to or don’t have, for example I’m allergic to most seafood (not worth risking trying something new) eggs also cause a reaction and wine…I’m not allergic to I just don’t like it. Give me a glass of Ribena over wine every time 😂
4:24 I wonder how many Japanese people see someone filming & playing with the toilet lock/privacy glass, roll their eyes & think ‘another visitor’ 😂 I mean the first ‘village of toilets’ you went into
6:06 my children would say ‘why are there decorations that look like poo on the walls?” 😂
Nottingham is famous for lace too but having EDS, I’ll go with the medication being the best 😁though after years of taking it on an empty stomach I can’t have it now
My ferritin level is 6.0 but iron is within the desired range. What does that mean
Stuck with what seems to be gastroenteritis, taking paracetamol to combat the fever and the headache. While waiting I think "Eh why the hell not, might as well find out how it works" very informative video, thanks!
The dehydration and losing electrolytes can give you a headache too. I know from having undiagnosed MCAD, which caused a reaction (nasty stomach issues that’s tmi) to gluten. I have loads of allergies but hadn’t realised. My gps weren’t taking any notice. Slimming world diet cracked the ‘case’ because soft fluffy white bread is naughty on that plan. But from all that I’ve realised that I was severely dehydrated and why & my electrolytes were really low too. Causing fever and headaches, oddly the fever symptoms don’t show on a thermometer… Hope you feel better soon, those symptoms make life miserable
@@lilacscentedfushias1852 thanks buddy, I overcame within a day. I was sipping on electrolytes all day but what really sealed the deal was the paracetamol
I want space medicine for not-quite beginners specifically for me and for me only. I’m not sharing.
From a colleague across the channel, thanks! Did know the backgrounds:-)
Love it,which hormone name fo girl med focusing
Clicked on this video cause i recently watched the movie Perfect Days. Both this and the movie were a good watch. Well done
Thank you! It's a great film!
i have a fascination with architecture and urban planning, and this was not an aspect i have thought that much about! super interesting and very important!
Thank you! Glad you found it interesting!
Very overlooked topic. Planning around toilets is one of the biggest hassles when I travel with my family anywhere that involves being any serious distance away from a hotel room.
Thank you! It's certainly often overlooked and a much bigger issue than people give it credit for.
the glass toilet room was the best idea because just being able to see that no one is lurking inside can give peace of mind.
I came here clueless. You just explained this in a more simpler way . Thank you
What an intreating and informative video! I had no idea how stylish public loos should be.

There are now at least five meta-analyses which say that dietary FAT/saturated fat have ZERO effect on atherosclerosis, i.e. saturated fats in the diet do not trigger nor accelerate atherosclerosis/CAD! Please take a look at the work done by Professor Bart Kay on this topic!
There seems to be an ever increasing amount of data and research which DESTROYS the outdated and bogus lipid-heart hypothesis. In other words, the LDL-C is a WORTHLESS blood test to inform on future CVD "risk"!

Bound testosterone to shbg is it accurate to say it doesn’t do very much, or is bound testosterone primarily used in the brain and regulates mood and emotions ? 6:52

Great video
Had no idea stinging nettles were so complex!!! Hope the dog didn’t get stung!
Such an insightful video. Great work
Oh one of the 'doctors' that helps make us sicker, by prescribing more medication.
When I juice fast like I'm doing now, I do them. Ive held them in for up to an hour. You feel so much better. Only the ignorant or arrogant use his type of argument to dismiss it. Pharma or researchers either cannot make money investigating it or can't get funding to investigate it. It works.
dear colleague, you should have a look at FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE....
Keep up the great work 👍
I feel calm and good on Propranolol or Atenolol but bad on Bisoprolol??
Me and everyone I know personally who's on bisoprolol have all started with tinnitus
I was on a large dose of Beta Blockers for 2 months, and I couldn't take it. I had to get off of them. I tapered in half and then in half again over the last month, and when I finally stopped them, I had 2 weeks of feeling like I was having a heart-attack. It was terrible. I hope they help some people, but the way I felt while taking them didn't work for me......
So when you finally stopped them were you okay?
❤❤❤
I love how you explain everything so clearly! Thank you
Keep up the great work ❤
Thank you
You're a "doctor" and can't figure out that alkaline foods and the medications work the same way?
Correct. I've even looked at the evidence and everything 🤷
@@TheStealthDoctor so what does tums do? And what about sodium bicarb in the ICU? Why is that needed?
3:05 so am wondering why my TIBC isn’t high according to your video.? Pls help me. My results. TIBC 265 ug/dL. (250 to 450) Iron. 68 ug/dL ( 38 to 169) % iron Sat 26 ug/dL. ( 15 to 55) Ferritin 48 gn/mL (23.9 to 336.2) So if iron level
What is wrong with those results? They look normal.
My grandma still dont want to die until now as she is aged 89. She did coffee anema every sunday. Shit.
I’ve been put on beta blockers, fine so far in dealing with the palpitations after the Covid jabs but finding they give me very loose bowels.

Can i take Omeprazole twice a day before meals?
20mg morning and 20mg evening is okay but dont take more than 40mg a day.
Rectal burns 😂😂😂 Fkn seriously now. If you’re stupid enough to pour scalding hot beverages up your rectum maybe … oh nevermind.
Can you drink alcohol wen take paracetamol
If you want your liver to die faster.
Good video but get rid of the music
Is 108mg total cholesterol to low
I've found it quite difficult to get good information for my situation: normal iron in blood, but elevated ferritin. It's not super-high, but finding info online of how to normalize ferritin when other markers seem okay was nearly impossible. I've since donated blood more frequently (once every 2-3 months) and it seems to have fixed it.
Are u doing the donation on your own or recommend by provider? Hopefully you are using other labs since you’re iron level is normal to begin with.. ferritin has different influences…
If you're not in iron overload there's no reason to donate blood. Your ferritin is ( was ) high for other reasons.
@@shinola228 Isn't donating blood good anyway? And yes, I've switched doctors and gotten better advice.
@@mandykal Yes, got better help. Provider said I was fine to donate blood, but ordered more tests. Looks like it may have been a temporary situation. My first doctor said ferritin was fine, nothing to worry about (because he had seen worse LOL) - I tried to communicate that I want the best for my long-term health, not a comparison to an unhealthy population.
@@OnlineCoachPaulStrobl Right, I've read the most likely reason donating blood is often heart healthy is because it lowers iron levels. Just like women have lower rates of heart disease than men - but only until they reach menopause.
Thank you
