I've always believed that laughter was the best medicine. So when my dad was sick, we gave him the best medicine available and laughed at him for a good three hours. At the autopsy, we found out penicillin would've been better.
I appreciate that the doctor actually finds Medicine Crisps an interesting concept. Because it is. We developed chewable tablets and syrup to deliver the medicine better, so medicinal crisps might actually be somewhat of a good idea.
im not sure they do deliver the medicine better, they are for people who cant handle a needle in a lot of cases. Injecting into the bloodstream is more effective. Some medicines may not have the desired effect at all if digested rather than injected.
@@chrism6952 "they are for people who cant handle a needle in a lot of cases" No they are not. Ingestion is in fact much better for medicines which are better distributed through the digestive system than intravenously. You are absolutely correct that some would do nothing if ingested, but ingesting meds is not designed to be an alternative to intravenous delivery.
@@flippy66 Ive had doctors tell me in some cases that it was best if I took the shot but they could give me an alternative if I preferred so I always assumed the shot was the most effective if it is one of my options
depends highly case to case. some medications are better administered IV (intravenous, in the vein) or IM (intramuscular, in the muscle) especially if it's the kind of thing you need to have an effect instantly, such as an epipen. However for something like a long term anti depressant it would make more sense to take a pill because they can be formulated XR (extended release) so they stay in your system and build up to appropriate levels! though i would disagree with the doctor that some fat and sodium automatically outweighs the benefits of the medication, as humans need fat and salt and will be consuming them anyways. plus for some people it's an added bonus! i actually have been asked by my doctor to increase my salt intake to make sure i'm absorbing enough water! would its nicer to get it through crisps than through salt pills 😂
@@chrism6952from what I know, intravenous injections are to get the medicine in there fast. While tablets and other injested medicine slowly break down in the bloodstream. So when I was younger and had bad asthma, I would take tablets to manage it on a regular basis, but take an intravenous shot in the case of a bad attack to get instant relief
They know in advance she’s a comedian but they have no idea what she’ll ask. There’s a making of video on CZcams. They said that very few of these people “break” which tells you how freaking polite Brits are! You can see who gets more exasperated by her though…😅
Having just discovered Philomena a few weeks ago, I'm a big fan. And yet, I root for the straight men she's interviewing. This cardiologist did a good job fielding her questions, patiently explaining the risk/benefit, good/bad "ray-see-oh" of having medicine in "crisps," etc.
I notice the same thing. The men are able to speak to her like she's a 2 yr old, patiently fielding her nonsense questions in actually clear ways. Some of them turn her questions back on her and make her answer the nonsense. The women get lost in her nonsense and end up making literally no sense at all (example: the Thinking Thoughts About Thoughts interview). Makes a strong case for why women are too gullible to be allowed to vote 😂🤣😂🤣
Doctor: *sorry, but you'll have to put up with your allergic reactions because this life saving medicine is only made in crisp form.* *You can always use your epipen- oh wait, that's made of crisps too. Yep, you're gonna die*
He missed the bit where crisps are lying around in the house, and contain powerful chemo drugs. What if the dog ate those?? It doesn't bear thinking about. Nothing does.
"to understand medicine, the best way is to try them on. But apparently that dangerous" - Philomena Cunk pure genius, that's why we don't do taste test on medicines
I'm a heart patient so respect to the medicine man even if he doesn't know what Monster Munch is (plus he's right about crisps being harmful)! These Philomena Cunk films are absolutely brilliant (plus she's right about onions - they are disgusting)!
belletollz I'm just on a Philomena binge watching them all and every one of these makes me laugh. I should be burning out by now, numbed to the comedy but then she says something like, onions isn't medicine, onions is disgusting and I lose it lol
Medicine crisps are nothing to do with the risk benefit ratio and the nutritional value of crisps. It’s because crisps aren’t an effective way of delivering medicine. Sugar is used loads. 1:40
yes. apparently, they weren't informed that this is satire/sketch. so, a lot of them end up confused or they'd assume that it's a kind of documentary for the "layman's peoples" in one interview, dianne (philomena) has stated that one of the experts got so mad, they had to end the shooting because the guy was getting aggressive and was about to punch her. lol
They are in on the joke. The team didn't tell some of the early experts. That was uncool and led to some of them being understandably annoyed. So they changed their approach.
It is quite possible that an upper-middle class busy professional never goes into the shops that sell monster munch, never watches commercial T.V. and is so preoccupied with work and high brow culture that the details of modern shite snack brands is out of his field of experience.
By risk/benefit does he mean risk of being sued vs benefit of receiving compensations from big pharma ? Does he think munch are more riskier than shooting millions with an untested vaccine of untested type while compared to 7 working types of vaccines and dozens that proved their efficacies over decades ?
That little clip from some forgotten Panorama or News Report... 0:43 to 0:49... wow...so much to say- just look at the orgasmic power trip hairy armed blue eye shadow is getting over the shame-faced, slightly older, probably slightly poorer customer. Well 40 years later, I bet they're both equal now.
She makes fools of so many of the experts. This time was no exception. He was wrong to say that the salt and fat and carbohydrate would do more harm than the good the medicine mixed in with it would do. It would depend on which medicine was in there, and what condition the patient the patient had, wouldn't it? That's common sense. If the patient's life was saved the medicine, the tiny amount salt, fat, and carbohydrate might do some harm but this would not outweigh the benefit that the medicine did.
I believe he knows it very well, but, realizing what he's up against, decided to go full grandpa mode and just explain it like you would to a five year old: not necessarily acurate, but enough to move on from the question.
@@silvasilvasilva They are told in advance it's a comedy programme, and that she will ask silly questions, but they are asked to respond professionally as if they're talking to a child. Still, apparently some get really impatient even knowing it's all for laughs.

Sounds like something Cunk would say to an expert to make them uncomfortable
"They are working on this as we speak, and even when we're not speaking, because some of them work nights."
Pure genius.
I love how the guest here has clearly decided before the interview that this must be a programme for children. xD
He was told to treat her like an inquisitive child.
"we gonna talk to a medicine man. Hello, who are you"
"It's a sobering thought. And that's useful, because many comedians are also alcoholics."
Lol
That was gold 😂😂
I love hearing that posh bloke saying the words "Monster Munch".
I hate how he says 'racio' as if the letter is not 't'....

Aye it's a posh British accent, many in the upper classes use it to distinguish themselves and be better understood

"Onions are disgusting." Finally, someone brave enough to fight big onions directly on mainstream media.

“They literally didn’t know their onions”
Well they literally didn’t know their Soviet onions either
She's brilliant.

Pickled onion Monster Munch are delicious though
Onions are only disgusting when you don't have any authentic Indian mint sauce to dip them in, or when they're not inside an onion bhaji.

most shocking thing about this episode was that the doctor had no clue what monster munch was
John Martin‘s voice is so soothing.
Brilliant

Onions are not disgusting. Neither is garlic. Very tasty stuff, and it does not need to be in Indian food.
