Hyperbaric Centers of Texas was established in 2004 to treat both FDA approved indications and “off-label” (non FDA approved) indications that have been unavailable to patients, either due to lack of insurance coverage or to limited income.
Most of the “off-label” conditions have been studied quite extensively and have shown remarkable results with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Some of these conditions include: Autism, Traumatic Brain Injury, Stroke, Sports Injuries, RSD and Cerebral Palsy.

a new study says if you drink bottled a new study says if you drink bottled water you could be doubling how many water you could be doubling how many water you could be doubling how many micro plastic particles you actually micro plastic particles you actually micro plastic particles you actually ingest and we are joined now by dr. al ingest and we are joined now by dr. al ingest and we are joined now by dr. al Johnson from the hyperbaric centers of Johnson from the hyperbaric centers of Johnson from the hyperbaric centers of Texas and dr. Johnson I think there was Texas and dr. Johnson I think there was Texas and dr. Johnson I think there was a study that came out last week that a study that came out last week that a study that came out last week that said over the course of a year the said over the course of a year the said over the course of a year the average person ingests about the as much average person ingests about the as much average person ingests about the as much plastic that's contained as a credit plastic that's contained as a credit plastic that's contained as a credit card I did had you seen that yes I had card I did had you seen that yes I had card I did had you seen that yes I had and we get small particles of plastic and we get small particles of plastic and we get small particles of plastic and all kinds of things that have been and all kinds of things that have been and all kinds of things that have been packaged in plastic and nurses study packaged in plastic and nurses study packaged in plastic and nurses study that we were referring to came from that we were referring to came from that we were referring to came from Australia where they were looking at Australia where they were looking at Australia where they were looking at bottled water mainly in plastic that bottled water mainly in plastic that bottled water mainly in plastic that would shed these small particles that would shed these small particles that would shed these small particles that you ingest when you drink the water or you ingest when you drink the water or you ingest when you drink the water or you know what food look good or so forth you know what food look good or so forth you know what food look good or so forth right yeah you know I guess is there an
Is there an answer 0:56
right yeah you know I guess is there an right yeah you know I guess is there an is there an answer to get to this to is there an answer to get to this to is there an answer to get to this to move away from this is it to go back to move away from this is it to go back to move away from this is it to go back to glass that's the answer I dealt with glass that's the answer I dealt with glass that's the answer I dealt with people with different sensitivities people with different sensitivities people with different sensitivities toxic exposures for over 30 years and toxic exposures for over 30 years and toxic exposures for over 30 years and the patients that really have problems the patients that really have problems the patients that really have problems with chemicals in the environment I with chemicals in the environment I with chemicals in the environment I recommend they do use glass bottled recommend they do use glass bottled recommend they do use glass bottled water that is the safest and then of

water that is the safest and then of water that is the safest and then of course I mean you know a lot of the course I mean you know a lot of the course I mean you know a lot of the stuff that we're ingesting we don't even stuff that we're ingesting we don't even stuff that we're ingesting we don't even really think about it because it's really think about it because it's really think about it because it's actually getting into the food during actually getting into the food during actually getting into the food during you like you said during the production you like you said during the production you like you said during the production and packaging process there's really no and packaging process there's really no and packaging process there's really no way to avoid that except avoiding way to avoid that except avoiding way to avoid that except avoiding processed and prepackaged foods right processed and prepackaged foods right processed and prepackaged foods right exactly and one of the biggest things exactly and one of the biggest things exactly and one of the biggest things though is when people microwave in the though is when people microwave in the though is when people microwave in the plastic container so if you have plastic container so if you have plastic container so if you have packaged food and it's been cold then packaged food and it's been cold then packaged food and it's been cold then the plastic doesn't degrade is rapidly the plastic doesn't degrade is rapidly the plastic doesn't degrade is rapidly and you take it out and then you might and you take it out and then you might and you take it out and then you might if you microwave or cook it you cook it if you microwave or cook it you cook it if you microwave or cook it you cook it in glass or stainless steel cookware and in glass or stainless steel cookware and in glass or stainless steel cookware and you avoid a lot of that so that's my you avoid a lot of that so that's my you avoid a lot of that so that's my message is a black bottled water or and message is a black bottled water or and message is a black bottled water or and don't microwave or heat things up in don't microwave or heat things up in don't microwave or heat things up in plastic
