3
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:17.760
boost your brain power. I'm your
host, doctor Eric Kaplan. Now,

4
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:26.960
there's lots of ways to improve your
brain function, but the most important necessary

5
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:34.079
thing to do every single day is
to get good sleep. You gotta get

6
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:41.679
good, consistent sleep. There's twenty
four hours a day. Eight hours should

7
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:47.920
be sleep, eight hours should be
work, and eight hours should be fun.

8
00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:51.719
Don't forget the fun part. A
lot of people just work sleep,

9
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:56.000
work, sleep, work, sleep. We gotta have fun, and if

10
00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:00.359
you can combine work with fun,
that's even better. You know what I

11
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:06.719
do. I love my work,
whether it's treating patients at my clinics in

12
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:11.079
New Jersey and New York, whether
it's writing my books, writing my newspaper

13
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:19.319
health column, doing my radio show, talking to live audiences, doing my

14
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:30.439
online Zoom seminars, or doing my
in person lectures. So I love to

15
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.680
just always help people and give to
others. I'm very blessed to love what

16
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:40.799
I do, and I always tell
my patients, you want to find something

17
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:47.280
that you love to do that way
you never work a day in your life,

18
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:53.239
and if you could do something that's
even active, even better. You

19
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.000
know, sitting at a computer all
day isn't the best thing for the brain,

20
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:05.640
especially if you have to do computer
work at night and is really bad.

21
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:10.560
That's gonna mess your sleep up.
Okay, so always love what you

22
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:15.080
do. Have eight hours of fun, eight hours of work, and eight

23
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:20.759
hours of sleep. Now how are
we gonna get that eight hours of sleep.

24
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:27.719
One of the most important ways to
accomplish that is through intermittent fasting.

25
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:36.919
And what we want to do is
eat from ten am to six pm and

26
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:42.520
then sleep from ten pm to six
am. That's your eight hours of sleep

27
00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:51.400
ten pm to six am. Then
when you do intermittent fasting from ten am

28
00:02:51.439 --> 00:03:00.520
to six pm, that gives you
four hours from your last meal to time.

29
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:08.719
Those four hours are key to getting
proper rest because four hours is enough

30
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:16.719
time to break down your food right. Food's broken down at different time periods.

31
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:23.319
Fruit is the easiest to digest.
It only takes about twenty to thirty

32
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:30.639
minutes to go through. Carbohydrates take
about two to three hours. Proteins take

33
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:38.120
about three to four hours, so
meaning you need at least four hours to

34
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:47.520
digest your food. Now, if
you don't wait and you go to bed

35
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:55.439
very very close to after eating,
now your cortisol levels are too high.

36
00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:01.919
Now your melatonin levels are too low. If you want good sleep, you

37
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:08.759
need to bring your cortisol levels down
and your melatonin levels up. But you

38
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:15.039
can't do it synthetically. It's no
good to take melatonin because then your brain

39
00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:18.720
says, I don't need to produce
it on my own because you're taking this

40
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:27.839
vitamin that you bought at CBS.
You want your own body to produce melatonin.

41
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:34.160
When I'm helping patients with Parkinson's,
I'm not the doctor that writes a

42
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:43.079
prescription for the el dopa. But
what I try and do is rewire the

43
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:50.560
brain through a process called neuroplasticity to
improve connections and improve neurotransmitters, oxygen,

44
00:04:50.639 --> 00:05:00.519
mitochondria ATP to get these collaterals,
these bridges, these connections. Therefore,

45
00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:05.680
the brain will produce the dopamine on
its own, and it comes from this

46
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:12.800
area of your brain called the basal
ganglia. That's where dopamine's produced. But

47
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:19.439
if your brain's not functioning at optimal
levels, it's not gonna produce dopamine,

48
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:30.279
and that's why people get Parkinson's disease. But I'm not gonna prescribe you dopamine

49
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:38.079
for Parkinson's disease. I'm going to
try and get your brain stronger through neuroplasticity

50
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:44.560
and rewire your brain. That's what
functional neurology is very different than a medical

51
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:50.240
neurologist. If you have sleeping troubles, they're gonna give you sleeping pills or

52
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:56.959
give you a seapap. What's a
seapap. That's that little thing that you

53
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:00.319
It's a mask that you wear when
you're in bed. But the only when

54
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:04.399
you get a seapap is to do
a sleep study. So a lot of

55
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:08.480
times when you go to the doctor
and you say I can't sleep, say

56
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:11.360
okay, let's do a sleep study. And then they hook you at all

57
00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:15.680
these machines and electrodes and measure your
brain ways and say, uh, you

58
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.639
got sleep at in there. And
what's the solution for sleep at in there?

59
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:27.839
It's called the sea pap. That's
always the solution, the sea pap,

60
00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:33.319
and that's to get you to breathe
better through your nose. But why

61
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:38.720
don't we get to the root,
cause how come you're not breathing well through

62
00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:48.000
your nose. Maybe you need to
exercise those muscles and those passageways because maybe

63
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:51.600
you've been using your mouth for too
long and now your brain's wired that way,

64
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:59.519
so you got to rewire your brain. One of the best things I

65
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:03.240
suggest for my patients with sleep abnea
who don't want to use a sepap,

66
00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:12.319
it's called hostage tape. So you
get this hostage tape. It's pretty cheap,

67
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:15.759
which is like this tape that covers
your mouth and it forces you to

68
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:21.399
breathe through your nose, so you
exercising those nose breathing mechanisms, and then

69
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:27.839
your brain after twenty one days,
gets rewired and starts to breathe through its

70
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:32.560
nose on its own. Your brain
can change. It's called neuroplasticity. But

71
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:40.000
you gotta do the work. And
it's not only it's not only doing the

72
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:45.800
hostage tape, but you also got
to do brain exercises. Just like you

73
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:51.279
can exercise a muscle, you could
do brain exercises. Specific exercise for the

74
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:57.959
vaguus nerve because that's your rest and
digest So if you have difficulties sleep but

75
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:05.360
also have digests, ibs also rate
of colitis, Crohn's disease, silliac disease,

76
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:13.399
cebow intestinal inflammation, leaky gut.
So if you have these problems plus

77
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:18.000
sleeping, you most likely have an
issue with your vagus nerve. That's the

78
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:22.839
rest and digest. It's part of
your parasympathetic nervous system. And one way

79
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:31.960
to stimulate the vagus nerve is through
gargling. Gargling really intensely, So you

80
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:37.360
just get a bunch of water and
as loud as you can, gargle like

81
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:41.679
for thirty seconds and wake up your
neighbors. The louder the gargle, the

82
00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:46.279
better, the more intense, the
better you could sing with it. You

83
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:48.399
can try and reach up to the
ceiling. Do it in the shower where

84
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:54.159
you can be super messy. That's
for your vagus nerve to get you out

85
00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:58.039
of that stress mode, out of
that fight or flight mode, into a

86
00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:01.600
relaxed rest and digest. Now we're
gonna be able to sleep. So do

87
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:11.759
the gargling. You do the hostage
tape, do the intermittent fasting. Don't

88
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:18.600
eat anything for the four hours before
bedtime. We don't want cortisol levels to

89
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:28.039
be high. What else raises cortisol
levels is electronics. The smart devices,

90
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:35.159
your iPhone and your iPad and your
iMac and your flat screen TV and your

91
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:41.960
computer and your cell phone. All
these smart devices emit blue light, which

92
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:48.279
increases cortisol, which is the stress
hormone. It's going to interrupt your deep

93
00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:52.840
sleep. It's going to decrease melatonin, and it's going to even if you're

94
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:56.799
in bed, not get that big
rest that you need when we want to

95
00:09:56.840 --> 00:10:03.440
get in that delta wave pattern that
m rapid eye movements. We want to

96
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:07.679
get in those deep sleep cycles.
And electronics and smart devices are going to

97
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:11.759
keep you up. We don't want
you up. We want you relaxed.

98
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.120
So unplug And I'm literally saying unplugged. Not just turn off your device,

99
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.960
but I don't want devices plugged in
in your room. If you want to

100
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:30.759
sleep the best, most deep sleep, don't have anything plugged in. I

101
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:35.639
mean in my bedroom. We don't
have a TV. We don't have a

102
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:41.200
clock with bright lights telling us what
time it is. We don't have our

103
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:46.799
cell phones near our heads, the
computer, the iPad, if they need

104
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:52.000
to be charged, they're in the
other room. They're downstairs. They're far

105
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:56.720
away from us. We don't want
our heads near any electronics, and even

106
00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:00.639
stuff that's turned off, we don't
want it near anything that's plugged in.

107
00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:09.120
I had a patient couldn't sleep,
and we found out by doing some investigating

108
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:11.919
that where her head was on the
opposite side of the wall, she had

109
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:16.080
these appliances that were plugged in,
not even in her room, it was

110
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.840
in the next room, but it
was on the same wall that her head

111
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:24.879
was. So we couldn't move these
big appliances in the room next door.

112
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:30.840
So we switched her bed and we
put her head on the other side where

113
00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:33.639
there was nothing on the other side. It was just the outside, and

114
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:39.440
she started sleeping like a baby just
by getting away from the electronics. So

115
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:45.600
if you want good sleep, you
unplug all your smart devices. You keep

116
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.879
it out of your room. If
you have to keep an alarm clock like

117
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:52.039
your phone, put all the way
in the corner and that way you have

118
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:56.720
to get out of bed anyway for
the alarm clock so you can press snooze

119
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:01.360
and go back to bed. The
worst thing is pressing snooze. The snooze

120
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:05.960
alarm is the worst invention. It
literally makes yours day start off with a

121
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:11.039
failure. So you set your alarm
intending to get in at a certain time,

122
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:16.519
but then you fail and you press
snooze, say I'll let me sleep

123
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:20.159
in a few more minutes. The
problem with snooze is you can't get into

124
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:26.399
that deep sleep. Your deep sleep
is ninety minute cycles, so you have

125
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:31.639
to get ninety minutes asleep to get
that deep sleep. So if you're pressing

126
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.840
that snooze alarm seven minutes, seven
minutes, seven minutes, seven minutes,

127
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.039
that does nothing. That makes you
actually worse. So you get out of

128
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:46.879
bed and start your morning routine to
exercise, and that increases cortisol in the

129
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:52.639
morning, which is going to help
you sleep better at night. You are

142
00:13:56.320 --> 00:14:05.159
You're listening to boost your brain power. Let's talk about how to improve sleep.

143
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:09.720
You got to get in what's called
circadian rhythms. And the way to

144
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:16.759
get in circadian rhythms is to have
high cortisol in the morning and low cortisol

145
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:24.559
at night, as well as low
melatonin in the morning and high melatonin at

146
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:30.559
night. That's gonna get your deep
sleep. That's gonna activate your pineal gland

147
00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:35.559
in the correct way, which controls
your circadian rhythms. But how can you

148
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:43.200
do that? Well, the best
way is to use the sun. The

149
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:50.200
sun will help you sleep better than
anything. Now what do I mean by

150
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:56.480
the sun will help you sleep?
You have to see the sun. You

151
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:03.919
have to go outside during sun rise
and during sun set. And it doesn't

152
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:09.279
have to be long, literally five
ten minutes so you go outside during sunrise

153
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:15.000
for five to ten minutes. That's
if the sun's out. If it's really

154
00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:18.440
cloudy, it still works, but
you might have to be there closer to

155
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:22.879
twenty minutes. You gotta double it, all right, But go outside,

156
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:31.720
not look outside. Go outside.
You have to see the entire sky so

157
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:35.000
your brain can figure it out.
Okay, this is north, this is

158
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:37.799
south. This is the way the
sun's rising, this is the way the

159
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:43.559
sun's setting. It's moving in this
direction. It's this amount of brightness,

160
00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:50.720
it's this angle. So this time
of the year, the brain needs to

161
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:54.240
see the sun to work. But
if you're inside all day and you're inside

162
00:15:54.279 --> 00:16:00.120
all night, the brain has no
idea what time it is, and I'm

163
00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:03.720
not going to figure it out by
looking at a clock. Doesn't work like

164
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:07.360
that. It figures it out by
light. That's how our brains are designed.

165
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:15.840
Time is a human concept that we
just made up to communicate to others,

166
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:26.639
but it really doesn't exist. What
does exist is sunlight and moonlight.

167
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:33.679
So as the brain sees the sun
rising and the sky getting brighter, it

168
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:37.879
says, okay, it's time to
stimulate increase energy. Now it's time.

169
00:16:38.000 --> 00:16:42.720
We're ready for that hunting or that
gathering. It's getting us ready these modern

170
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:45.960
days. It's getting us ready for
work, getting us ready to school,

171
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:51.919
to think, the focus, to
do your chores and your errands. Daytime

172
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.919
is when we get stuff done.
That's when we need our energy. When

173
00:16:55.919 --> 00:17:00.360
we need cortisol, we need that, We need that light. You're gonna

174
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:03.519
use electronics, you use them in
the morning. When we want cortisol levels.

175
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:07.359
You want to look at those screens, you want to do computer work,

176
00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:11.440
do it in the morning. When
we want cortisol high, we need

177
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:18.200
to increase our levels, and light
is the key. So you go outside

178
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:25.880
for five ten minutes during sunrise,
increase cortisol, decrease melatonin. Then you

179
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:32.920
also go outside for five to ten
minutes during sunset. Okay, that's going

180
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:42.880
to decrease cortisol. That's going to
increase melatonin. Now after sun set and

181
00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:48.920
you come back in the house,
we don't want to confuse the brain.

182
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:52.960
And have the lights on, all
these big bright lights, and then have

183
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:57.559
the TV on and you watch your
TV show, and then the computers on,

184
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:02.960
so you're going on Face, Facebook, and then your cell phone's on.

185
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:08.079
You're checking your text messages and the
iPads on and you're browsing on YouTube.

186
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:14.240
And if you come home and you
have all the lights on, all

187
00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:18.799
the electronics on, in the brain
says, oh, looks like it's daytime.

188
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:25.880
We got to increase cortisol. That's
going to interrupt your sleep. So

189
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:36.039
just like you did intermittent fasting and
you stop eating at six pm to decrease

190
00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:47.160
cordisan, you should also stop electronics
after six pm and start dimming the lights

191
00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:52.759
and seven pm, dim the lights
even more at eight pm and turn all

192
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.359
the lights off in just one little
desk lamp and nine pm and then turn

193
00:18:57.200 --> 00:19:03.839
everything off and just listen and into
some podcast or an audible book or a

194
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:11.279
some music or you know, just
spend some time with your loved one.

195
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:17.000
And so now it's time to chill
out. And now it's ten o'clock we

196
00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:21.319
should be asleep. So six o'clock, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, nine

197
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:25.359
o'clock, the lights get less and
less and less and less, and your

198
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:30.519
brain increases. It's melatonin more and
more and more and more. So use

199
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:36.160
the lights to your advantage, use
the sun to your advantage. If you

200
00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:41.799
have a jet lag, you travel, you know to California the three hour

201
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:45.400
time change. You go to Europe
or Asia and your circaina rhythms get messed

202
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:49.440
up. What you have to do
is go outside. I don't care what

203
00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:55.160
time it is. If you land
at nine pm and there's no sun,

204
00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:59.880
you go outside and look at the
moon, and the brain says, oh,

205
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:06.079
there's the moon. It's nighttime.
I should be going to bed.

206
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:11.880
You want to decrease jet leg,
you go outside, and if you're in

207
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:17.480
California with a three hour time zone, you go outside for three hours.

208
00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:21.960
If you're in Europe and there's an
eight hour time difference, you go outside

209
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:26.119
for eight hours and then your brain
has enough time to adapt. Okay,

210
00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:30.519
so being outside is your friend.
You're also gonna get more oxygen, more

211
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:37.759
vitamin D, more exercise, more
socialization, get out of the house.

212
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:44.400
Go outside, not just to sleep, but to improve your brain function,

213
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:52.200
your cardiovascular function, your mood,
your energy everything. You want to be

214
00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:59.400
one of these natural people, like
those tree huggers. You want to put

215
00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:03.160
your feet in the grass and in
the sand and in the dirt. You

216
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:07.160
want to touch those trunks of trees, and you want to breathe that salt

217
00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:11.359
air in the ocean, and you
want to put your feet at the beach,

218
00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:17.519
in the sand, be in nature, be in the sun, be

219
00:21:17.640 --> 00:21:22.440
in the forest and the trees to
get that oxygen. One tree gives enough

220
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:26.920
oxygen for five people. I like
one person for five trees. It's like

221
00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:34.519
you're in an oxygen tank. Increase
your time outside. Being inside is the

222
00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:41.880
worst thing for your health. You
just sit on the couch on the electronics,

223
00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:48.799
eating junk food. Get outside,
exercise, breathe, get your sun,

224
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:55.160
like, be social, interact with
people. That's gonna get your brain

225
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:59.839
functioning in a higher level. All
right, now, getting back to their

226
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:07.119
saum rhythms. We want to have
the light on our side, so at

227
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:12.000
nighttime we have to decrease that light. If you have a job where you

228
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:15.759
have to be on the TV,
or you have to be on the computer

229
00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:21.039
or your cell phone, do yourself
a favor and get a blue light filter.

230
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:26.400
There's also settings on your computer and
your phone and your TV to put

231
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:33.000
a night shift or night mode mode
or blue light filter mode. It's getting

232
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.160
rid of the blue light so it'll
look kind of orange. I have these

233
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:42.440
blue light filter glasses that I wear. I really like those. I suggest

234
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:52.519
those if you're interested for the first
seven people that call text or email you

235
00:22:52.519 --> 00:23:00.480
could get these blue light filter glasses
for only ten dollars. Amazing, and

236
00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:03.920
we're gonna give you a big discount. It's only gonna be ten dollars for

237
00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:07.640
the first seven people that call text
or email. Uh it is six four

238
00:23:07.759 --> 00:23:14.400
six two two one sixty seven three
eight. Or you can email info at

239
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:18.759
kaplanbraininbody dot com tell me you want
to be the first seven people to get

240
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:23.039
the blue light filter glasses for only
ten dollars. Well, also, if

241
00:23:23.079 --> 00:23:30.519
you get those, throw in a
free book that I wrote called Boost your

242
00:23:30.559 --> 00:23:36.440
Brain Power, A Guide to Improving
your Memory and Focus. It is the

243
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:42.079
seventeen most important ways that improve in
through neurosigns to boost your brain power,

244
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:48.119
improve your memory, improve your focus, which will in turn prevent dementia,

245
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:56.480
prevent Alzheimer's as well as a lot
of neurological and physical conditions. So if

246
00:23:56.559 --> 00:24:03.839
you get those blue light filter glasses
for only ten dollars, we will also

247
00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:08.880
throw in a free book signed by
me about how to Boost your brain Power,

248
00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:15.400
A guide to improving your memory and
focus. Now, as far as

249
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:22.160
there's circadium rhythms, right, reading
a book at night is good drawing is

250
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:26.519
good. Writing in your journal is
good, joining a book club, doing

251
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:33.720
something social, you know, maybe
joining a tennis group, maybe taking a

252
00:24:33.799 --> 00:24:37.039
dance class, taking a musical instrument
class. So get out of the house.

253
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:40.799
Do something. But if you're in
the house, you know, he

254
00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:44.440
said, you could listen to an
audible book, a podcast, listen to

255
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:48.640
some music, play a board game
Monopoly, chess, connect for play some

256
00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:56.920
cards, talk to your family members, do something artistic, take up sewing,

257
00:24:56.039 --> 00:25:00.960
do a hobby, you know,
do some legos, build some stuff,

258
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:07.880
do some you know, uh,
experimenting. You could start finding how

259
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.240
to cook new meals, and you
know, start learning new things, learn

260
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:15.279
a new language, learn a new
skill. Just do anything that doesn't have

261
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:23.359
to use electronics that will increase your
brain function and improve your sleep. This

262
00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:29.680

275
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:33.519
dot com. Hello, this is
doctor Eric Caplan. You're listening to boost

276
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:37.640
your brain power. One of the
best ways to boost your brain power,

277
00:26:38.079 --> 00:26:45.160
improve your memory, your focus,
your energy is to get good sleep.

278
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:52.680
We need proper sleep. You need
to rest. It will literally take years

279
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:59.240
off your life if you don't sleep
all right, But we gotta get what's

280
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:07.160
called your gland in order. The
pineal gland controls your circanium rhythms, and

281
00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:12.880
a lot of times this can happen
if you're in stress mode. Your brain's

282
00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:21.039
overstimulated. Most people their brain's overstimulated. The worst thing is watching the news,

283
00:27:21.319 --> 00:27:26.279
especially at night. If you're watching
the news at night and you're you

284
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:34.680
know, thinking about Israel getting bombed, and you're thinking about the war in

285
00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:41.000
uh Palestine in the Middle East,
and you're thinking about Ukraine and Russia,

286
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:45.799
and you're thinking about all the you
know stuff that the news is reporting.

287
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:49.759
The stabbings in the Bronx and the
you know, people murdered on the subway,

288
00:27:51.000 --> 00:28:00.279
and all these wild fires and hurricanes
and earthquakes and racism and police brutality

289
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:10.400
and political corruption and inflation and poverty
and starvation and death and disease and drama.

290
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:15.799
That's what's on the news. How
are you gonna get a good night's

291
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:19.319
sleep if you're not even watching the
news. What if you're just watching you

292
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:25.839
know, these TV shows where you
have zombies killing each other and uh,

293
00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:30.039
you know, uh cops capturing sexual
predators and you know, people in jail

294
00:28:30.119 --> 00:28:34.920
getting raped and you know, so
if you watch the news, that's bad.

295
00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:40.920
But if you watch even the fiction
television, that's bad. It's always

296
00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:47.000
something dramatic. It's always murder,
it's always killing and blood and guts and

297
00:28:47.119 --> 00:28:52.920
gore. You know, start laughing. You know, I'm gonna maybe watch

298
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:55.960
a movie or TV. I wanna
laugh, I wanna, you know,

299
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:00.319
see something that's funny. Right,
so you wanna have you know, remember

300
00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:03.640
we said this eight hours in a
day, eight hours sleep, eight hours

301
00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:07.720
work, and eight hours fun.
People aren't having fun everymore. It's too

302
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:12.440
serious. But you gotta have fun. You got to enjoy life. Life

303
00:29:12.559 --> 00:29:18.480
is about experiences. It's not about
being angry and being worried and being in

304
00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:23.920
fear mode. If you're angry,
if you're worried, if you're panic and

305
00:29:23.960 --> 00:29:26.559
you're a fear mode, you're not
going to sleep well. And if you

306
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:30.599
don't sleep well, you're gonna take
years off your life. You're going to

307
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:34.039
cause problems. It's gonna be heart
attacks and strokes and cancer and obesity and

308
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:41.359
diabetes. All these bad stuff happens
when you're not sleeping properly. So turn

309
00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:49.920
off the news, stop watching all
these violent shows. Start doing stuff that's

310
00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:57.279
more calm, relaxing. Do some
meditation, practice some mindfulness, do some

311
00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:04.960
yoga, do some taichi, do
some breathing exercises. Get in that relaxed

312
00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:11.279
state. When you inhale, that's
more stimulating for your body. When you

313
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:18.200
exhale that's more relaxing. So if
you're having time trouble relaxing, trouble sleeping,

314
00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:25.400
really focus on your exhale. So
the best breathing exercise is to inhale

315
00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:30.119
for four seconds, hold it for
seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds.

316
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:34.160
So we want to make that exhal
last really long, or you're just

317
00:30:34.160 --> 00:30:38.920
still a breathing exercise. We take
a big breath in and then very slowly

318
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:44.680
breathe O. That's the key.
Very slowly and you just come so you

319
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:48.640
don't push too hard, so you
can last a really long time, long

320
00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:52.400
and long and longer and longer.
So as you get better and better,

321
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:59.279
your exhale could last longer and longer. That's more relaxing. When you inhale,

322
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:03.599
you want to breathe through your diaphragm, so you want to push your

323
00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:07.039
belly down and out, and then
when you excel, everything comes in and

324
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:12.200
squeezes that carbon dioxide, push it
out, push it out. So always

325
00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:18.200
focus on the exhale. That's going
to calm down your nervous system. Other

326
00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:26.599
ways to calm down the nervous system
is through what's called your tragus, this

327
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:32.240
little part of your ear. It's
like that little inner flat, and that

328
00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:37.799
has been proven to relax your nervous
system by stimulating your parasympathetic nervous system.

329
00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:42.480
The parasympathetic nervous system gets you in
this rest and digest rather than the fear

330
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:48.319
mode that bite or flight. You
can also do the gag reflex. The

331
00:31:48.480 --> 00:31:56.000
gag reflex has been proven through neuroscience
to activate your vagus nerve, which is

332
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:05.680
also linked to the parasympathetic nervous system. The vagus nerve will decrease your fight

333
00:32:05.759 --> 00:32:10.079
or flight mode to help you get
in a more relaxed state. That's that

334
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:17.599
rest and digest. So you want
to do exercises such as gargling, the

335
00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:24.599
tragus, ear rub, the gag
reflex. These are neurologic exercises that are

336
00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:31.519
going to relax your nervous system.
Conversely, we need to avoid stuff that's

337
00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:39.119
going to be stimulating. The most
obvious is caffeine. And I don't care

338
00:32:39.640 --> 00:32:46.240
if it's in the morning, that's
still too stimulating for your brain. So

339
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:51.839
we don't want caffeine, whether it's
through your coffee or your tea, or

340
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:59.559
your energy drinks, your Red Bull, your rock star. Stay away from

341
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:06.240
the cafe, Stay away from the
stimulants, the sugar, the artificial sweeteners,

342
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:14.240
the preservatives, the food dies.
I can't tell you how many children

343
00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:20.000
I see in my office is in
New York and New Jersey that when I

344
00:33:20.079 --> 00:33:28.440
suggest to the parents to get off
food dies and all these preservatives and artificial

345
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:37.200
flavors, how quickly they report that
their children are less hyperactive, they become

346
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:39.480
more relaxed. They start sleeping better, they start focusing better, they start

347
00:33:39.480 --> 00:33:45.359
thinking better. They're not as wild, they're not as distracted, they have

348
00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:52.559
a better tention span. Your brain
changes quick, but you might not realize

349
00:33:52.599 --> 00:34:01.640
the connection between preservatives, food dies, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners. They

350
00:34:01.799 --> 00:34:07.759
are stimulants for your brain. They
cause all this inflammation. And if you

351
00:34:07.799 --> 00:34:13.760
want to get good rest, you
have to avoid those stimulants. We have

352
00:34:13.880 --> 00:34:16.800
to keep your nervous system relaxed.
If you want to make a tea,

353
00:34:16.960 --> 00:34:21.400
just make it on your own.
Literally, buy a piece of ginger,

354
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:27.599
Boil it in some water and there's
your ginger tea. Cut a half an

355
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:34.199
apple and put some cinnamon sticks.
Adds your apple cinnamon tea. You could

356
00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:40.880
do whatever you want. You know, you could put some peppermint in there

357
00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:45.559
and get peppermint tea. You know, you could just squeeze lemon and do

358
00:34:45.800 --> 00:34:51.039
lemon tea. You can make whatever
tea you want. Just buy the real

359
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:57.480
ingredients. Don't add any stimulants.
We don't want caffeine. We want to

360
00:34:57.519 --> 00:35:05.800
relax. Sugar chocolate are stimulants,
all right, So stay away from the

361
00:35:05.840 --> 00:35:14.000
stimulants. And there's more natural things
that are more calmon Valerian root, Saint

362
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:20.159
John's wart, you know those have
been proven to calm down your nervous system.

363
00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:24.920
Okay, so there's lots of stuff
you could do to relax your nervous

364
00:35:24.960 --> 00:35:30.920
system, but you got to figure
out what part of your brain is overstimulated.

365
00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:35.880
The best test to figure that out
is called a VNG. This vg

366
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:39.719
it's a really cool test to where
these goggles they have infrared cameras in them.

367
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:45.119
They measure different odd moments left and
right and up and down and fast

368
00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:47.039
and slow and with a head movement
and with light and in the dark,

369
00:35:47.559 --> 00:35:52.760
and it literally analyze which areas are
overactive and which areas are underactive. Measure

370
00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:57.599
that there's imbalances of your left and
right brain. So if you have anxiety,

371
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.719
if you have depression, if you
have troubles of memory, your focus,

372
00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:04.880
or sleep. If you have any
of these neurologic problems headaches, dizzyness,

373
00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:07.480
this is one of the best tests
for you. It's called a VNG.

374
00:36:07.159 --> 00:36:12.360
It's normally five hundred dollars, but
for the first seven people that call,

375
00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:16.719
text or email, you can get
the entire VNG test for only twenty

376
00:36:16.760 --> 00:36:20.920
one dollars. It's only for the
first seven people, so all you have

377
00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:24.159
to do is call six four six
two two one, six seven three eight,

378
00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:30.480
or you can email info at Kaplanbrain
Andbody dot com. Tell them that

379
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:35.480
you just listen to my show and
you want to be one of the first

380
00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:42.800
seven people to do the VNG test
that normally costs five hundred dollars for only

381
00:36:43.039 --> 00:36:52.519
twenty one dollars. And if you
sign up for the VNG, we will

382
00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:58.679
include for the first seven people a
free autograph book by me, doctor Eric

383
00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:04.679
Kaplan. It's called Boost your Brain
Power, A Guide to Improving your Memory

384
00:37:05.199 --> 00:37:13.599
and Focus. It's the seventeen best
ways that improvement through neuroscience to improve your

385

386
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:27.000
help prevent Parkinson's stroke, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity.

387
00:37:28.199 --> 00:37:32.519
It's a really quick read. It's
only seventy three pages. It's got all

388

403
00:38:53.840 --> 00:39:00.000
You are listening to boost your brain
power. If you want to boost

404
00:38:59.960 --> 00:39:05.079
your brain power, if you want
to improve your energy, your focus,

405
00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:13.360
your memory, your motivation, your
mood, your sleep. We have to

406
00:39:13.400 --> 00:39:16.280
get the proper rest. It's not
just being in bed, it's getting that

407
00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:22.679
deep sleep. It's called the delta
waves. Your brain has different waves brain

408
00:39:22.719 --> 00:39:28.000
waves. You have an alpha brain
wave, that's how you just kind of

409
00:39:28.039 --> 00:39:32.599
normally are during the day. You
have a beta brain wave. That's when

410
00:39:32.599 --> 00:39:37.960
you've got to really focus and think
and concentrating. You're presenting at your meeting

411
00:39:37.039 --> 00:39:42.400
and you're studying for the big test
and you're you know, trying to give

412
00:39:43.400 --> 00:39:46.719
a talk and your boss is asking
you questions about the project you just did.

413
00:39:46.800 --> 00:39:51.039
That's the beta. That's when you
really got to focus and think and

414
00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:54.800
be on point. Then you got
your theta. That's the daydreaming. You're

415
00:39:54.800 --> 00:40:00.559
in La la land, looking at
the window, just watching the listening to

416
00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:06.400
them chirp. You know, that's
that's the theta. Then when you're sleeping,

417
00:40:06.679 --> 00:40:08.000
that's the delta. That's when you
should be totally cool, chill,

418
00:40:08.079 --> 00:40:10.760
calm, relaxed. Right, So, if you want to get that deep

419
00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:15.800
sleep. You got to get your
delta brain waves in order. Okay,

420
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:20.000
if you want to get in that
deep sleep, you got to get everything

421
00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:25.159
connecting properly. Your brain has to
function in optimal levels. Now, how

422
00:40:25.199 --> 00:40:31.960
are you going to know if your
brain is functioning optimal levels. Well,

423
00:40:32.000 --> 00:40:39.239
there's a lot of reasons. Number
one is your memory. You could do

424
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:46.960
what's called a Mocha test. A
Mocha test you could literally download from online

425
00:40:47.000 --> 00:40:55.519
for free. It's the standard test
that all neurologists do. Everywhere you go,

426
00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:04.039
these neurologists do this moch tests and
it will tell you if you're going

427
00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:07.840
to have a problem with memory,
if you're going to be predisposed to dementia

428
00:41:07.920 --> 00:41:14.039
or Alzheimer's or something like that.
The Mocha test is a score out of

429
00:41:14.159 --> 00:41:20.239
thirty. If you get at least
twenty six or higher, then your brain

430
00:41:20.360 --> 00:41:24.800
is considered normal. If you're below
twenty six, that means we have a

431
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:32.280
problem. Now you need someone to
do the test for you. You can

432
00:41:32.440 --> 00:41:38.519
have just your friend or a family
member you know, sit down with you

433
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:44.079
and perform the test, but it's
always best to do it by a doctor.

434
00:41:44.480 --> 00:41:45.159
And if you wait till the end
of the show, we're going to

435
00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:49.719
give you a special deal where you
can get that done at one of my

436
00:41:49.800 --> 00:41:53.039
offices in New Jersey, New York. So stick around just for the end

437
00:41:53.079 --> 00:41:59.079
of the show. My New Jersey
office is in Emerson, that's in Bergen

438
00:41:59.119 --> 00:42:02.480
County, New Jersey, and that's
sort of by paramis near all the malls

439
00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:07.960
pretty close to there. Uh.
It's a great office. We have all

440
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:14.880
this amazing technology. We have hyperbarrack
oxygen chamber, and we got cold laser

441
00:42:15.039 --> 00:42:22.280
therapy, and we have different what's
called NSI, this Neurosensory integrator, which

442
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:24.320
is this big flat screen TV.
We're doing all these brain games. We

443
00:42:24.360 --> 00:42:30.800
have this caps machine, This balance
board measures your balance and stability. We

444
00:42:30.880 --> 00:42:35.800
have this VNG that measures your brain
function which areas of functioning high and low.

445
00:42:36.639 --> 00:42:43.119
We have different laser pointers and we
do neurofeedback and qee G brain mappings.

446
00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:50.800
And it's really great office with lots
of great staff and great healthcare practitioners

447
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:54.039
that are here to get you to
function best and field best. We have

448
00:42:54.239 --> 00:43:00.119
another office New York City where we
do all the same things. The qEEG

449
00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:06.400
brain mapping that's one of the best
tests that patients love in both of our

450
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:09.320
offices in New Jersey, New York. This is this test where you wear

451
00:43:09.320 --> 00:43:14.920
a cap and it looks like a
swimmer's cap, but it's got electrodes attached

452
00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:17.079
to it and it measures all those
brain waves. We were just talking about

453
00:43:17.079 --> 00:43:21.599
the alpha, the beta, the
theta, the delta, but based on

454
00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:30.119
the location of where the brain mapping
finds abnormal brain ways can tell us how

455
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:35.000
that's going to manifest in your real
life. So it might say, oh,

456
00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:39.480
you're going to be more prone to
panic or fear, or negative thoughts,

457
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:45.000
or short term memory or working memory
problems or long term memory problems,

458
00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:52.760
or sleep deprivation or insomnia or anxiety
or depression, or balance problems, or

459
00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:57.639
eye problems or ear problems, or
if you had a concussion or thyroid problems,

460
00:43:57.639 --> 00:44:02.039
intestinal problems, if you have inflammation
or heavy metal poisoning or viruses or

461
00:44:02.039 --> 00:44:07.679
pathologies, or if you have any
sensory problems or motor problems, if you

462
00:44:07.679 --> 00:44:13.719
have any problems with worry or shifting
tasks, or motivation or organization or planning,

463
00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:20.000
or social behavior or language. This
test literally picks up everything. It's

464
00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:22.400
one of my favorite tests. We
do. This test in both of our

465
00:44:22.440 --> 00:44:28.719
offices. It's normally five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people that

466
00:44:28.840 --> 00:44:35.079
call, text or email you could
get this qEEG brain mapping for only twenty

467
00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:38.920
one dollars. And there's no gimmick, there's no scam. You could literally

468
00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:44.000
get the entire test, have it
for your records. I'll go for I'll

469
00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:49.599
go over at personally one on one
with you. It's the qEEG brain mapping.

470
00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:52.599
Normally five hundred dollars, but for
the first seven people that call,

471
00:44:52.679 --> 00:44:57.760
text or email you could get it
for only twenty one dollars. Just call

472
00:44:57.960 --> 00:45:04.000
or text six four six two two
one six seven three eight, or you

473
00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:09.840
can email info at kaplinbrainebody dot com. Just let them know that you listen

474
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:14.800
to my show and you want to
be one of the first seven people to

475
00:45:14.880 --> 00:45:20.159
get the qEEG brain mapping for only
twenty one dollars. Now, if you

476
00:45:20.280 --> 00:45:24.079
signed up for the VNG also you
can do both tests, so you could

477
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:29.800
do both tests at the same day
as well. Okay, and they're very

478
00:45:29.920 --> 00:45:32.679
valuable. So I want to do
the qEEG brain mapping to measure all your

479
00:45:32.719 --> 00:45:38.920
different brain waves and it will tell
us where the problem areas are what areas

480
00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:44.039
need to be helped with. What
areas are working very well. It's not

481
00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:46.880
broke, we don't fix it.
There's areas that can use improvement. We're

482
00:45:46.920 --> 00:45:52.519
going to let that know. And
the way we help your brain improve is

483
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:57.519
not with medication. It's not with
injections, it's not with surgeries. It's

484
00:45:57.679 --> 00:46:00.320
very holistic, integrated by getting to
the root cause of it. So when

485
00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:05.079
we do these brain mapping we can
figure out the root cause of the problem

486
00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:09.440
and not just treat symptoms with medication. Do not call my office if you

487
00:46:09.519 --> 00:46:15.039
want a prescription medication. I am
not the type of doctor that writes prescription

488
00:46:15.239 --> 00:46:22.199
or performs surgeries. I'm a natural, holistic and integrative doctor who analyzes your

489
00:46:22.239 --> 00:46:28.079
brain and your body and tells you
where your weaknesses are so you could strengthen

490
00:46:28.159 --> 00:46:35.960
them without any horrible drugs or risky
surgeries and let the body heal itself.

491
00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:38.639
The human body is amazing at healing
it self. We just got to let

492
00:46:38.679 --> 00:46:45.480
it work. You know, humans
intervene too much. You know, sometimes

493
00:46:45.480 --> 00:46:49.280
if you have a fever, your
body's heating up to kill off your virus

494
00:46:49.320 --> 00:46:52.480
or bacteria. But if you take
a medication to bring down your fever,

495
00:46:52.800 --> 00:47:00.199
then the virus and bacteria can thrive. Or sometimes you have pain because your

496
00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:04.239
body is saying, hey, you're
pinching a nerve. If you bend over,

497
00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:08.679
that's going to cause dysfunction. But
if you take a painkiller or a

498
00:47:08.760 --> 00:47:13.280
muscle relaxer, now you're gonna be
able to do a move that you shouldn't

499
00:47:13.280 --> 00:47:17.679
be doing, and you're going to
aggravate that nerve even more. Right,

500
00:47:19.039 --> 00:47:22.000
if you have diabetes, I don't
want to just write you a prescription for

501
00:47:22.119 --> 00:47:25.559
me form in. That's not the
type of doctor I am. I don't

502
00:47:25.559 --> 00:47:31.159
write prescriptions. But I want to
help you figure out how we can help

503
00:47:31.199 --> 00:47:36.519
the diabetes naturally, because we don't
want to get these neuropathies and need to

504
00:47:36.519 --> 00:47:40.960
get amputated, or you need to
you're gonna get blind, or because diabetes

505
00:47:42.480 --> 00:47:51.000
can cause amputations neuropathies, blindness can
cause dementia. Alzheimer's diabetes is dangerous and

506
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:53.920
it's very common. So we might
have to exercise more, we might have

507
00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:57.599
to change your diet. We might
have to work on your vegus nerve,

508
00:47:57.639 --> 00:48:00.960
work on the pancreas. We might
have to work on intermint fitting and sleeping,

509
00:48:01.000 --> 00:48:04.400
and we might have to work on
nutrition and supplement. So there's a

510
00:48:04.400 --> 00:48:07.559
lot of stuff that can be done, but you got to do it.

511
00:48:07.880 --> 00:48:13.920
So when you come to me,
be prepared to work. Don't be prepared

512
00:48:14.000 --> 00:48:16.440
to just pop a pill. I
don't want to hide the symptom. Want

513
00:48:16.480 --> 00:48:20.159
to get to the root cause of
the problem. And that's what we do

514
00:48:20.199 --> 00:48:22.440
with capital and brain and body.
Get to the root cause of the problem

515
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:29.559
and not just hide symptoms with medication. And medication could be great in an

516
00:48:29.599 --> 00:48:32.159
emergency situation where it could save your
life, like if you're having a stroke

517
00:48:32.280 --> 00:48:36.079
or something and you need to take
that blood dinner. If you don't go

518
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:38.760
to the hospital and take that blood
dinner, you could die. And the

519
00:48:38.840 --> 00:48:45.800
quicker you get that medicine the better. However, for chronic conditions, you

520
00:48:45.800 --> 00:48:49.000
know, you got to be careful
with the medicine. You know, if

521
00:48:49.039 --> 00:48:54.119
you take these stating drugs for lipiatoire
like called lipatore or these other stands you

522
00:48:54.159 --> 00:49:00.079
know, for high cholesterol, that
can actually cause dementia. So statin drugs

523
00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:07.960
have been linked to dementia. So
rather than take the medication to hide the

524
00:49:07.000 --> 00:49:12.199
symptoms and now create new problems,
for the medication. Let's see, Hey,

525
00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:16.880
how can we lower our cholesterol naturally? Maybe we gotta reduce dairy products

526
00:49:16.960 --> 00:49:22.719
or bread products. Maybe you gotta
have less pizza and fried chicken. Maybe

527
00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:28.639
you gotta stay away from all those
croissants and bagel and cream, cheese,

528
00:49:29.079 --> 00:49:34.840
toast and butter. There's so many
ways naturally to bring your cholesterol exercise,

529
00:49:35.239 --> 00:49:39.480
brain stimulation, but you gotta figure
out where your problems are. So what

530
00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:43.760
I would recommend for you, if
you have not sure where to start,

531
00:49:44.159 --> 00:49:49.039
is to sign up for an evaluation. During this evaluation, we'll check everything

532
00:49:49.119 --> 00:49:53.679
from your blood pressure to your pulse
rate, to your respiration. I'll listen

533
00:49:53.719 --> 00:50:00.000
to your gut, your bowel sounds, I'll listen to your lung compacts.

534
00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:04.559
We'll listen and check your balance,
check your eyes, your ears, your

535
00:50:04.599 --> 00:50:07.719
memory, your motor your sensory,
your reflexes, your muscle strength, your

536
00:50:07.800 --> 00:50:12.960
range of motion, your posture,
your alignment, your circulation, your blood

537
00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:15.840
flow. Takes about forty five minutes. This is a one on one evaluation

538
00:50:15.920 --> 00:50:21.360
with me, doctor Eric Caplan.
It's normally five hundred dollars, but for

text or email, you can get the

540
00:50:23.360 --> 00:50:28.360
one on one evaluation with me where

00:50:28.719 --> 00:50:34.079
brain tests, my evaluation that normally
costs five hundred dollars. The first

542
00:50:34.119 --> 00:50:37.280
