I Heeartradio's hosting of this podcast constitutes neither 2 00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:11.320 an endorsement of the products offered or the ideas expressed. Hello and welcome to 3 00:00:11.359 --> 00:00:17.399 boost your brain power. I am your host, doctor Eric Kaplan. Hope 4 00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:23.079 everyone's having a great day so far. Summer is starting. We just want 5 00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:28.239 to make sure that we have a lot of experiences. If you want to 6 00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:33.039 improve your mood, you want to get out of depression, anxiety, It's 7 00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:40.840 not about staying at home. It's about getting out. That is the key. 8 00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:50.359 Being social, getting sunlight, getting exercise, getting oxygen, being in 9 00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:57.359 nature. We have to do these things for our brain to grow and improve. 10 00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:02.359 Your brain like a muscle, you use it or you lose it. 11 00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:07.959 But you've got to strengthen your brain. You've got to challenge the brain. 12 00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:14.400 The three most important things for your brain function are doing new activities, brain 13 00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:23.400 stimulation, getting the proper amount of oxygen, and eating the proper nutritional diet. 14 00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.359 And what's the proper nutrition. Don't complicate it. Just make sure you 15 00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:32.359 get each color of the rainbow every day, and you get all your nutrients. 16 00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:38.519 You don't need multivitamins. Multivitamins are unnecessary. So many patients to take 17 00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:42.280 multivitamins, and it's like, you're not deficient in all these vitamins. You 18 00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:48.400 start taking vitamins that you're not deficient in, they can become toxic. Yes, 19 00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:51.879 you can get a lot of benefit from vitamins, but you want to 20 00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:56.640 be a minimalist. The very least amount of vitamins you take, the better, 21 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:01.400 The very least amount of medication the better. The body is amazing at 22 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:07.239 healing itself. We just need to unleash its potential. We got to feed 23 00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:10.159 a proper nutrition, proper oxygen, get the water, get the exercise, 24 00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:17.520 and do brain stimulation. Everyone understands, oh, brushing your teeth every day, 25 00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:21.240 or I gotta go to the gym, or I gotta eat healthy, 26 00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:24.319 or I gotta get a good night's sleep, or drink water. But when 27 00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:29.120 I say you gotta do brain exercises every day, it's a new concept. 28 00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:32.360 But you got to challenge your brain. You gotta do something new every day. 29 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:38.520 You gotta make yourself think. Retirement is the worst thing for the brain. 30 00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:43.520 If you retire and then you don't have to think because there's no job 31 00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:51.240 stimulating your brain. That's an issue that's a big problem. So it's you 32 00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:54.759 know, you can change careers, but you can't retire. You gotta keep 33 00:02:54.800 --> 00:03:00.560 your brain strong. You've got to keep working, keep move and keep exercise 34 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:05.560 and keep eating healthy. If you want to enjoy your life, you got 35 00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:08.719 to be healthy. People say, oh, I want to live along life. 36 00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:12.560 I don't want to live along life. I just want to enjoy my 37 00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.960 life. Well, guess what. You might live a long life, but 38 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:21.520 we need a quality of life. That's the key. It's all about your 39 00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:27.960 quality of life, and the way to have a good quality of life is 40 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:34.719 to be healthy. That's the number one most important thing. It's not money, 41 00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:42.000 it's not relationships, it's not love, it's not good looks, it's 42 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:51.639 not materials, it's not spirituality. It's health. Health is the most important 43 00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:59.639 thing. Nothing else matters without your health, okay, and everything gets boosted 44 00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:06.960 when you are healthy. Then you can be more social, be more spiritual, 45 00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:14.159 exercise more, earn more money, love more people, do more charity. 46 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:16.639 You know, if you're not healthy, how are you going to help 47 00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:20.279 people? You always got to take care of yourself first, take care of 48 00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:25.319 your health first, just like they tell you on the airplane, put your 49 00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:31.240 mask on first. Then help your child, then help others. But you've 50 00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:39.160 got to prioritize your health. It's number one priority. So eating healthy is 51 00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:45.360 eating each color of the rainbow every single day with your fruits and vegetables. 52 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:53.360 And avoid the white foods sugar, you know, flour, bread, basta, 53 00:04:54.279 --> 00:05:00.600 all those carbs. Got to stay away from those colorful cars, zucchini 54 00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:09.160 and squash. It's that color in there. Your brain likes that. Stay 55 00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:13.240 away from the white. Eat the color. Not too complicated. Don't eat 56 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:18.680 things in boxes and cans and bags, that stuff that's stored, that stuff 57 00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:28.439 in the middle aisles and the supermarket. Get everything fresh, organic, wildfish, 58 00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:38.959 free range chicken, organic meats, grass fed, humane conditions, no 59 00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:44.240 steroids, no antibiotics. You know, you might not take medication, but 60 00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:49.040 if you're eating conventional meat, you are. You're taking steroids and antibiotics because 61 00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:54.839 all that meat, all that chicken, all that turkey, all that beef, 62 00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:06.199 it's pumped with medication and they could be fed genetically modified corn. So 63 00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:09.360 where you're getting your eggs from, where you getting your chicken from, where 64 00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:16.240 you getting your turkey from, super important. Even the fruits and vegetables. 65 00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.920 When you get organic, we don't want all the sprays on the food, 66 00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:29.680 all the chemicals that pesticides, the herbicides. Buy organic. If you can't 67 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:33.839 afford like organic, buy the foods that have the large peels so those chemicals 68 00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:42.079 don't leak into the food. Avocado, bananas, oranges, watermelon. So 69 00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.800 if you can't afford to buy organic, buy food that has large peels that 70 00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:54.000 are going to protect the insides from the chemicals that they spray on these conventional 71 00:06:54.040 --> 00:07:00.600 farms. So we have to eat healthy. It's number one. Number two, 72 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:04.000 you got to get that oxygen. I'm gonna get that oxygen. We're 73 00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:11.040 gonna do our posture exercises, roll those shoulders back, breathing exercises where you 74 00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:15.279 inhale for four seconds, hold for seven seconds, exhale for eight seconds. 75 00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:23.959 By plants in your house and apartment, a lot of them fill it with 76 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:29.360 oxygen, so if you are inside, you're at least breathing some oxygen. 77 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:36.040 Spider plants, snake plants, alo vera plants, money plants, they have 78 00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:43.600 lots of oxygen. Want to increase that oxygen. Got to get rid of 79 00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:47.680 that carbon dioxide. So when you exhale for that eight sessions, really push 80 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.399 out push, push, push, push, push, push, push, 81 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:56.439 every last breath out you get rid of that carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide creates 82 00:07:56.439 --> 00:08:01.639 an acidic environment, and an acidic environment is where disease lives. Cancer, 83 00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:07.680 heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease. We do not want an acidic environment. 84 00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:11.399 When an alkaline environment. To get alkaline water, you could put pink 85 00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:16.680 Himalayan salt in your water. So you get a nice water filter at home, 86 00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.759 one that attaches under the sink. You know, you spend that extra 87 00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:24.959 money now, you save a lot of money later if you're not buying the 88 00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:30.759 water bottles. That costs a lot of money. That creates environmental problems with 89 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:35.399 all the plastic water bottles. That creates a lot of health hazards because you're 90 00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:45.519 drinking literally plastic. The average person has about a plastic as as much plastic 91 00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:48.879 as the size of a credit card every year. That's how much most people 92 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:54.399 intake in plastics. So when you store your food in plastic, you drink 93 00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:00.559 your drinks in plastic, you're getting these little micro filaments there. They affect 94 00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:05.440 your hormones, they affect your inflammation, They cook autoimmune disease, allergies, 95 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:11.039 stay away from plastics, and store everything in glass containers are stainless steel. 96 00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:18.240 It's not gonna leach into the food or the water. Drink in stainless steel 97 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.559 container water drink glass water bottles. You can put a rubber covering in case 98 00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.159 you know you're clumsy and you drop in. You don't want to keep breaking 99 00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:30.879 glass water bottles. You get a little covering there, but at least the 100 00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:37.559 water that you're drinking does not full of plastics. You're right. And cook 101 00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:45.080 your food in stainless steel cookware as well. You want to stay away from 102 00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:52.559 that aluminum the taplon those non stick pands. You know, there's a lot 103 00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:58.879 of easy, healthy ways to clean these pans just using you know, even 104 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.639 I'm in baking, so that vinegar and so there's a lot of natural ways 105 00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:09.159 to keep everything clean without using all these chemicals. All right, the cleaning 106 00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:15.399 products have a lot of chemicals, and there's so many easy do it your 107 00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.679 home ways to make your own stuff that's a lot cheaper, better for the 108 00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:26.960 environment, and better for your health. So those are super important tools. 109 00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:31.279 Now, how else can you increase your oxygen levels by doing diafraumatic breathing? 110 00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:37.639 Super important? When you inhale, you're gonna push your belly down and out 111 00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:41.759 like you're a pregnant woman. And when you exhale, everything's going to kind 112 00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:48.080 of suck back in and squeeze that carbon dioxide out. So on the inhale 113 00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:54.840 to maximize oxygen, you're pushing your belly down and out. On the exhale, 114 00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.759 everything comes back in. So if you're not doing that naturally, better 115 00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:03.200 start practicing that. A lot of people that I evaluate in my office are 116 00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.879 not breathing that way naturally. They breathe through their necks and their shoulders and 117 00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:13.440 these accessory muscles for respiration, which is bad news, and then they're gonna 118 00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:18.240 get a lot of pain and headaches and dizziness. So we got to really 119 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:26.360 make sure we maximize our oxygen intake. Oxygen is key, food, water, 120 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:33.200 oxygen, sunlight, you know, those are the basics that we got 121 00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:35.720 to take care of, right, but we got to do it on a 122 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:41.919 daily basis. Sunlight is very easy. You just go out twenty minutes every 123 00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.440 day between twelve and two. That's it. Roll up those sleeves, take 124 00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:48.679 up those glasses, take up your hat, roll up your pant legs. 125 00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.639 Get some skin exposure. For twenty minutes a day, you're gonna get your 126 00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.720 sunlight. Look up at the sky. Stop looking down so much. Start 127 00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:00.360 looking up at the sky, not directly at the sun, but most to 128 00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:05.519 it. Take off your glasses so your eyes can get the sun. All 129 00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:07.600 right, So not only do we need water, food, and oxygen, 130 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:13.720 but we need sunlight. Just like the plants, water, food, air, 131 00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:16.799 stun all the basics. But we've got to make sure we take this 132 00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:22.320 more when we come back from the brig If you want to improve your brain 133 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.879 function, help with memory, focus, sleep, digestion, energy, depression, 134 00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:31.039 anxiety, dizziness, balance, vision, headaches, brain fog, weight 135 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:35.799 loss, or simply want to maximize your human potential and prevent future diseases, 136 00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:39.240 that this is the show for you.

Welcome back to boost 145 00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:26.200 your brain power. I'm your host, doctor Eric Kaplan. So we were 146 00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:33.279 just talking about the three major ways to improve brain function, food, oxygen, 147 00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.879 and activation. There right, So food, we said, just eat 148 00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:43.600 each color in the rainbow, avoid the white foods. For oxygen posture, 149 00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:48.000 we got to work on. Got to work on your diaphragmatic breathing. Got 150 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:52.360 to work on the ratio of your breathing inhale for four seconds, hold it 151 00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:58.000 for salmon, exhale for eight. Got to have plants, spider plants, 152 00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.840 snake plants, allow vara plants, money plants in the house. And I 153 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:07.679 gotta go outside in nature, in the trees, in the woods, in 154 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:15.639 the forest, go outside, breathe that oxygen. Give those cheese the carbon 155 00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:20.360 dioxide by doing big exhales, and you take that oxygen inhale. I take 156 00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:24.279 all the power. I literally go outside of my woods every morning. I 157 00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:30.000 take the oxygen from the trees. I give them all my carbon dioxide. 158 00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:35.519 I take the power from the sun. I literally look up towards the sun 159 00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:39.519 every morning as it's rising. I take the power, that energy from the 160 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:43.600 woods and the sun, and I feel it go in my body. And 161 00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:46.120 then I go down. I even touch the ground with my fingers, and 162 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.799 then I explode up and I blow everything out, and I give all my 163 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:54.039 healing energy to the trees, to all the people, to all my family, 164 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.519 all my neighbors, my country, my world. I heal the world 165 00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:03.639 through my energy. I suggest everybody do that. Imagine if the whole world 166 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.519 kind of went outside every morning, did some breathing, got some energy from 167 00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.559 the sun, and said, I'm gonna help heal the world. I'm gonna 168 00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:18.159 help other people. I'm gonna give that's what we need to do. If 169 00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:22.919 everybody did that, the world would function at a higher level. We would 170 00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:31.080 have this higher vibrational energy. The world is limitless, but we have to 171 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.919 create a healthy world. Unfortunately, right now, probably due to greed, 172 00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:43.919 we're poisoning our water, We're poisoning the air, We're blocking the sun, 173 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:52.399 we're putting chemicals on our food. I mean, we're not taking care of 174 00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.480 the most important things of our health. We don't want to block the sun. 175 00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:00.480 We don't want to put chemicals all over the fruits and vegetables that we 176 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:06.200 eat. We don't want to stick our you know, animal products with steroids 177 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:11.600 and antibiotics and raise them in in humane condition and use only genetically modified foods. 178 00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:17.919 We don't want to block the sun. To prevent global warming, we 179 00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:21.639 need the sun. We don't want to hide from the sun. You know, 180 00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:22.720 if you have skin cancer, that's different. But other than that, 181 00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:27.960 the sun is healing. The sun prevents cancer. We don't need gloves and 182 00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:33.799 gloves of all at suntan lotion, especially at suntan lotion that you're gonna get 183 00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:37.519 you know, from the CBS, the pharmacy, Dwayne Read or whatever. 184 00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:44.440 You know, We're not gonna those chemicals literally cause all this inflammation that will 185 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:48.799 cause a lot of damage. It's one of the most toxic stuff you can 186 00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:51.440 put on your body. So keep that in mind this summer if you want 187 00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:55.440 something healthy so they don't get sunburnt. You know, I have very very 188 00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:59.799 pale, so I burn easily. So if I'm out at the beach or 189 00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.759 long time, yeah, I gotta protect myself I don't want to burn. 190 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:07.759 I'll wear a hat, I'll wear glasses, I'll put on some zinc oxide 191 00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:11.720 because I don't like burning, But I do like sunlight, do you My 192 00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:18.720 vitamin D. Vitamin D is super important and it's the most common deficient vitamin. 193 00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.839 It's actually a hormone. Now, you know, we said in the 194 00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:27.680 beginning of the show that we don't want multi vitamins because you're not deficient in 195 00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:34.039 all of those vitamin you are probably deficient in. If you're listening to my 196 00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:37.200 show from the York in New Jersey, if you're a local listener, you're 197 00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:44.400 probably deficient in vitamin D. If you live, you know, in Puerto 198 00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:51.480 Rico or the Dominican Republic, or in Mexico or someplace closer to the equator, 199 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:56.839 and your vitamin D levels are going to be higher, especially if you're 200 00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.319 outside a lot, especially if you're wearing short sleeves and you have lots of 201 00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:07.519 skin exposure. But even here, if you're outside a lot but you're wearing 202 00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:15.079 long sleeves, you're not getting your vitamin D. So I personally in vitamin 203 00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:21.599 D deficient as well, unless I do supplements. So when I do blood 204 00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:26.119 work, if I am deficient in vitamin D. I know it's time to 205 00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:33.400 up my supplement. The supplement that I prefer is from apex Energetics. It's 206 00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:41.119 Ultra D five thousand. It's a liquid that's in fat because vitamin D needs 207 00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:45.279 to get absorbed with the fat. There's four fat soluble vitamins, A, 208 00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:51.920 D, E, K, the apex Energetics Vitamin D formulas all of these 209 00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:57.839 plus it has the fat. Plus it's cut the calcium and know the meaning 210 00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:04.400 to improved absorption. Even as biotin. Biotin is great for hair, skin, 211 00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:10.799 nails, This formula is amazing. All right. You can email me 212 00:19:11.079 --> 00:19:14.960 info at caplambranobody dot com and I can tell you how to get it because 213 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:17.480 you can't just buy it in a store. You have to get it through 214 00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:22.079 a doctor. But that is by far the best vitamin D out there. 215 00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:27.920 Now, what's another supplement that a lot of people need to take because their 216 00:19:27.960 --> 00:19:38.559 deficient is probiotics. Most people are deficient in probiotics because they've taken antibiotics. 217 00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:45.680 You've ever taken antibiotics, you're probably deficient in bacteria, good bacteria, and 218 00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:56.000 when you need that good bacteria. Now host covid. Everyone uses antibacterial soap, 219 00:19:56.119 --> 00:20:04.160 antibacterial lotion, antibacterial spread, antibacterial cleaning products, antibacterial wipies. Everything's 220 00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:10.920 antibacterial. And what that means is your body's not getting exposed to the bacteria. 221 00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.759 Bacteria is good. Most bacteria is good. Once in a while you 222 00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:21.680 get bad bacteria. But guess what if you have a lot of good bacteria, 223 00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:29.160 that is your best defense against bad bacteria. Understand that. So the 224 00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:37.519 best defense against bad bacteria is good bacteria. So that's why most people need 225 00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:44.680 to take probiotics, not so many antibiotics. Oh my god, everyone, 226 00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:52.799 let's taken antibiotics, or they get put on steroids or anti acids or stating 227 00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:57.000 drugs. Oh my god, these are gonna be really bad for your brain. 228 00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:02.680 He's gonna be really bad for your inflammation. This is going to be 229 00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:10.440 really bad for your immune system, your digestive system. We have to be 230 00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:15.880 careful with all this medication. You know, when a lot of doctors, 231 00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:19.519 when they prescribe this medication, they're not going to necessarily necessarily tell you all 232 00:21:19.519 --> 00:21:25.720 the side effects. Got to be very careful. If they're not going to 233 00:21:25.799 --> 00:21:29.839 tell you the side effects, you've got to look it up on your own. 234 00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:34.160 You've got to read the labels, and then you've got to make a 235 00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:45.920 decision. Does the risk outweigh the reward or does the reward outweigh the risk. 236 00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:52.839 So, if there's a lot of reward with little risk, that is 237 00:21:52.839 --> 00:22:02.119 a procedure that I am all for. Conversely, there's a lot of risk 238 00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:11.359 and there is not so much of a reward, and that's something we have 239 00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:17.799 to avoid. But you got to put it on the scale which is higher 240 00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:27.640 the risk versus the reward. Right, So don't always do surgeries and medications. 241 00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:32.920 Those are very risky. Those should be a last resort. It's always 242 00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:41.960 best to try conservative therapy first, the least risky way, because there's so 243 00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:47.400 little a risk and so much reward. So that is always the best way 244 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:52.599 to do. The conservative way. The least intervention, the least medication, 245 00:22:52.720 --> 00:23:00.599 the least surgery, the least supplements, the least procedures at least radiation. 246 00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:04.519 Not as many X rays, not as many cat scans and pet skins and 247 00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:12.559 MRIs and mammograms and ultrasounds and sonograms and X rays, and you know, 248 00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:22.240 there's a lot of stuff that isn't necessary. All these colonoscopies and endoscopies and 249 00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:26.599 all this contrast fluids and all this radiation, and you know, look at 250 00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:32.039 the procedures you're doing. It's not just the treatment that is risky, but 251 00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:37.519 it's also the testing that is risky. Right, So what type of testing 252 00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:44.200 will give you valuable information but has very little risk. Blood work that's pretty 253 00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:48.400 easy, it's the going to cause any problems. My favorite test as a 254 00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:52.480 functional rologist where we test a lot of brain is the q EEG brain mapping. 255 00:23:53.720 --> 00:23:59.240 So with the q EEG brain mapping, it evaluates all the different areas 256 00:23:59.240 --> 00:24:03.000 of the brain. You're frontal core texture, parietal core text, your temporal 257 00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:07.160 core tex, occipital core text, or cerebellum, your brain stand. It 258 00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:12.720 goes all over the brain, every single area okay, and it says which 259 00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:18.119 areas are good and which areas are bad. Measures your brain waves alpha brain 260 00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:22.160 waves and beta and data and delta, and it says okay. Based on 261 00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:27.039 the location, you can tell us what's going to happen in your real life. 262 00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:30.839 Is it going to affect your memory? Is it can affect short term 263 00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:36.880 memory? Is it gonna affect long term working memory? Sequential memory is it 264 00:24:36.880 --> 00:24:41.039 going to affect your focus, your motivation, your organization, your planning. 265 00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:47.000 It's it gonna affect depression, anxiety, sleep, insomnia. Is it can 266 00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:49.680 to affect your mood? Is it going to affect your energy? If you 267 00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:56.880 can affect your thyroid, your intestinal inflammation, your neurotransmitters. Now, this 268 00:24:56.960 --> 00:25:02.000 test takes about twenty minutes, It's non invasive. It's normally five hundred dollars, 269 00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:04.240 but for the first seven people that call, text your email you could 270 00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:08.400 get this q EG brain mapping for only twenty one dollars.

Welcome back to boost your brain power. 285 00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:26.119 I'm your host, doctor Eric Kaplan. Now we're talking about the risk 286 00:26:26.559 --> 00:26:37.079 verse the reward. You always want to do examinations, evaluations, treatments that 287 00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:45.839 have very little risk. Your body is only allowed a certain amount of radiation 288 00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:51.880 in your whole life before it becomes really bad, meaning cancer. You know, 289 00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:56.240 all this radiation can cause cancer. I know sometimes they tell you radiation 290 00:26:56.279 --> 00:27:00.680 and curious cancer, but can also cause cancer. So we want to avoid 291 00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:04.839 as much radiation as possible. And everybody you know where they work, they're 292 00:27:04.839 --> 00:27:08.000 gonna say, up, this is not that much radiation. It's very little 293 00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:14.279 radiation. But when you keep doing it over and over and over and over 294 00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:18.640 again. You know, cat scans and pet scans and X rays and ultrastands 295 00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:23.519 and all these sonograms, all these radiation even mammograms. I mean, it's 296 00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:30.200 a lot of radiation. We gotta decrease it, all right, start using 297 00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:34.680 our hands. So you know, your best defense against breast cancer is using 298 00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:41.160 your palpatory skills. So women just every morning feel your breasts. Feel what's 299 00:27:41.240 --> 00:27:45.680 normal every day, the top, bottom, left, right, all around, 300 00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:48.759 and you'll know, okay, wait, this feels weird. I'm not 301 00:27:48.839 --> 00:27:52.920 used to feeling this, and this feels weird. So you have to know 302 00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:56.920 your body and then if you find somebody, okay, then you do. 303 00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:00.559 But it's not just about you know, doing all these prevents that if things 304 00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:04.640 your best prevention is palpatient, all right, that's the hand you know, 305 00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:08.240 the same thing for men. You could do the same thing with your testicles 306 00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:15.000 to prevent testicular cancer. You can for men. Also for prostate you got 307 00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:18.440 to get a prostate exam. The best, the best way to know if 308 00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.559 you have prostate cancers, get a prostate exam, and that's palpatient. It's 309 00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:26.079 quick, it's easy. Your doctor knows how to do it. So they 310 00:28:26.119 --> 00:28:30.920 just go in very quickly and they can feel whether the prostate is too hard, 311 00:28:32.000 --> 00:28:36.200 or it's too big, or its hypercha feed urs inflamed and then they 312 00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:40.759 know, Okay, there's a problem there, but you gotta check it right. 313 00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:44.200 So the best is always the hands. You know, I need think 314 00:28:44.279 --> 00:28:48.119 doctors need to touch patients more. I need to use their hands, feel 315 00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:51.880 their bodies, Listen to their bodies. You know, pal pay, per 316 00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:55.720 cuss all, scultate all the stuffs we're taught in school. We need to 317 00:28:55.720 --> 00:28:57.880 do more and more of it. You know. Feel the pulse pressure is 318 00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:02.759 their difference in left and right. You know, we gotta doctors look at 319 00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:04.799 balances. We gotta look at the blood pressure. When you go to the 320 00:29:04.839 --> 00:29:10.319 doctor, do they measure your blood pressure on the right side versus the left 321 00:29:10.359 --> 00:29:15.880 side? That's significant. You can have normal blood pressure on one side and 322 00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:23.400 really high blood pressure on the other side, or vice versa, and really 323 00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:26.880 low blood pressure on one side and high on the other. A lot of 324 00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:33.920 different variables. You can have difference in pulse rate when you go from light 325 00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:40.480 to standing. That's significant. If you're you know, lying down and then 326 00:29:40.519 --> 00:29:45.799 you stand up and your pulse rate goes up more than twenty beats per minute, 327 00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:52.960 that's a problem that could indicate something called pots positional orthostatic tech cardio syndrome. 328 00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:56.079 These people get light headed or dizzy. When they get up quickly head 329 00:29:56.119 --> 00:30:00.200 down, their heads down, and then they come up they get very light 330 00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:06.279 headed. This could be a problem to be related to your autonomic nervous system. 331 00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:10.119 You know, we need to get these things evaluated. So when you 332 00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:15.160 have symptoms, it's your brain telling you, hey, there's something wrong. 333 00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:22.039 You should have a life with no symptoms, no pain, no headaches, 334 00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:32.119 no dizziness, no visual problems, no skin problems, no problems going to 335 00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:40.000 the bathroom. It is normal to have no problems. That is complete health. 336 00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:45.160 So if you do have symptoms, we want to get to the root 337 00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:51.680 cause of the problem. At my offices, I have two offices, one 338 00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:57.000 in New York and one in New Jersey. We try and be detectives. 339 00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:00.200 Let's get to the root cause of the problem. No, let's not just 340 00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:07.319 treat symptoms. Right, So, if you have trouble with sleep, I'm 341 00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:12.319 not going to write a prescription for a sleeping till. I'm also not going 342 00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:15.519 to say, oh, let's just do something more natural and give you melatonin. 343 00:31:17.559 --> 00:31:22.440 That doesn't work either. You're still treating the symptom. You're not getting 344 00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:30.000 to the root cause of the symptom. Right Because you're taking something more natural, 345 00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:37.880 doesn't mean you're not treating the symptom. If you take melatonin to help 346 00:31:37.960 --> 00:31:41.000 you sleep, you're still in that medical mindset. You're still treating symptoms. 347 00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:51.079 So what do you want to do right? If you have low energy when 348 00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:52.599 you take oh, let me take P twelve just to boost my energy. 349 00:31:52.599 --> 00:32:00.640 It's natural. Let me just drink coffee. Even though you're not medicating yourself, 350 00:32:02.759 --> 00:32:10.160 you're still treating the symptoms. The coffee is treating your low energy, 351 00:32:10.359 --> 00:32:16.319 or your bad mood, or your lack of bowel movements, or your headaches. 352 00:32:19.559 --> 00:32:22.839 Don't drink coffee just so you're gonna have a bowel movement. Don't drink 353 00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:27.039 coffee just so you don't get a headache. Don't drink coffee because you need 354 00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:31.720 a boost of energy in the morning. Then it's a drug. You're treating 355 00:32:31.759 --> 00:32:37.640 symptoms. Get to the root costs. How come you don't have energy in 356 00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:44.480 the morning, how come you're not sleeping properly? That's why that q EG 357 00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:47.920 brain mapping is so important. You get to the root cost Say, oh, 358 00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:52.519 now I know why you're not sleeping. Probably this part of your brain 359 00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:58.279 isn't working. Oh now I know why your energy is low. This part 360 00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:01.799 of your brain isn't work. Now I know why you have anxiety. This 361 00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:07.960 part of your brain isn't working. Now I know why your memory is not 362 00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:13.680 working. This part of your brain isn't working. Problem. So that qEEG 363 00:33:14.200 --> 00:33:19.559 is very good. The other good test is called a VG. This is 364 00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:24.759 video instography and for this test, you where these infrared goggles and the goggles 365 00:33:27.440 --> 00:33:31.359 will measure your eye movements and it can tell the connections between the left side 366 00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:35.039 and the right side. Is one side working too much? Is one side 367 00:33:35.079 --> 00:33:37.519 working too little? It could really focus. Hey, is it more you 368 00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:43.480 know in the frontal because the fast eye movements are delayed or they're latent, 369 00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:49.480 or they're slow, or they're inaccurate. Or is it with the slow eye 370 00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:53.160 movements you have a sensory problem. Do you have approprial sceptive problem? And 371 00:33:53.839 --> 00:33:58.880 it can kind of break down where the problems. Is it underactive, is 372 00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:01.519 it overactive? Is the left side is at the right side, because then 373 00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:05.680 if we get to the root cause of it, then we could really focus. 374 00:34:06.160 --> 00:34:08.239 Right. So a lot of people with anxiety and depression, they have 375 00:34:08.360 --> 00:34:13.599 one side that's overactive and one side that's underactive, and What they end up 376 00:34:13.639 --> 00:34:16.880 doing is taking medication to kind of shut off everything so you don't feel the 377 00:34:16.920 --> 00:34:22.800 anxiety and you don't feel depression. So the medication shuts off everything. However, 378 00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:27.119 some of these medications shut off some of the good stuff. They might 379 00:34:27.119 --> 00:34:30.039 shut off joy, and they might shut off happiness, and they might shut 380 00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:35.800 off love, and they might shut off laughter, and you kind of lose 381 00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:38.840 your personality because it's shutting your brain off. We don't want to shut your 382 00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:45.519 brain off. We want to relax overactive areas, and we want to stimulate 383 00:34:45.719 --> 00:34:51.639 underactive areas. That gets you homeostasis, that gets you balance, that creates 384 00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:59.199 stability, that creates connections, so your brain's not disconnected. Okay, the 385 00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:02.480 best test for it's called a VG. There's no radiation. Again, there's 386 00:35:02.480 --> 00:35:07.480 no risk. We're always measuring the risk verse the reward. So the V 387 00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:12.920 what we want to do is take these infrared goggles, measure your eye movements, 388 00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:15.159 analyze your brain, and then we could tell you right side, left 389 00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:22.519 side, underactive, overactive. This test is normally five hundred dollars, but 390 00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:24.079 we're going to do a special. If you're the one of the first seven 391 00:35:24.119 --> 00:35:30.360 people to call or text, you can get the vg for only twenty one 392 00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:36.239 dollars. All you have to discord that for two two, one, six, 393 00:35:36.280 --> 00:35:40.239 seven three eight, where you can email at Kaplan Brain and Body dot 394 00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:47.840 com. That's for a VNG. Now the other test I was talking about, 395 00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:51.239 you know where I said, Oh, we got to measure your blood 396 00:35:51.239 --> 00:35:53.639 pressure on the right side and the left side, and we want to measure 397 00:35:53.679 --> 00:35:59.559 your pulse rate from lying to sitting. And we want to measure your heart 398 00:35:59.639 --> 00:36:04.719 and your pressure and your muscles and your posture and your alignment. That's a 399 00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:08.000 little bit more evolved. That's a one on one session with me that takes 400 00:36:08.039 --> 00:36:13.639 about forty five minutes. We also go over your history, we go over 401 00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:17.239 blood work, We check out your gut, your heart, your memory. 402 00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:22.639 We do this test called Amocha test, which is as to see how Alzheimer's 403 00:36:22.719 --> 00:36:27.440 or dementia or are you predisposed to it as it can't happen later on down 404 00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:30.920 the line. It's the most common test, takes about five minutes. All 405 00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:35.400 neurologists around the world do this. It's the same test. It's called the 406 00:36:35.519 --> 00:36:39.239 Moocha tests. It's the standard test for dementia and Alzheimer's. We do that 407 00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:44.039 in our office. That would be part of your evaluation. That's part of 408 00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:47.519 the forty five minute evaluation where we do all these tests including your balance, 409 00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:53.199 coordination. You know, we check your eyes and your ears everything. It's 410 00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:58.480 forty five minutes is normally five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people 411 00:36:58.599 --> 00:37:01.199 that call, text or email, you can get the one on one with 412 00:37:01.280 --> 00:37:07.519 me Doctor Kaplan as well for only twenty one dollars.

Doctor Kaplan 432 00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:55.079 is most famous for getting to the root cause of a wide variety of brain 433 00:38:55.119 --> 00:39:00.239 and health conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional medicines risky surgeries. To 434 00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:04.719 contact to doctor Kaplin, you can call this team at two or one two 435 00:39:04.760 --> 00:39:10.840 six one two five zero or visit his website at Kaplin DC dot com. 436 00:39:12.079 --> 00:39:15.719 Welcome back to boost your brain power. I am your host, doctor Eric 437 00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:22.559 Caplin. So we're talking about how to improve your brain function, not to 438 00:39:22.639 --> 00:39:30.239 hide symptoms with medication, but get to the root cause of the problem. 439 00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:36.159 Most people complain about memory and focus, and what they do is they blame 440 00:39:36.280 --> 00:39:39.719 their age and say, ah, you know, my memory is just getting 441 00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:44.039 worse as I get older. A lot of people blame things on age. 442 00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:47.920 Oh my vision gets worse because I'm older. Oh I have more joint pain 443 00:39:49.000 --> 00:39:52.639 because I'm getting older, or my balance is off, or I'm not as 444 00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:58.159 strong. None of those are true. Your memory can improve as you get 445 00:39:58.159 --> 00:40:04.639 older. You can be in less pain as you get older. You can 446 00:40:04.719 --> 00:40:12.159 be more energized as you get older. But the key is to challenge your 447 00:40:12.199 --> 00:40:19.880 brain. And the key is to strengthen your muscles, get your bones stronger. 448 00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:22.679 Right, so people say, oh, I'm getting older, I'm gonna 449 00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:27.760 get osteoporosis. No, but what you have to do is more weight resistant 450 00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:36.920 exercise, more vitamin D. Maybe you have to do more outside activities. 451 00:40:37.719 --> 00:40:44.920 Maybe you need some bands, maybe you need some weights, Maybe you need 452 00:40:45.000 --> 00:40:47.280 to get a gym membership, Maybe you need to take a dance class, 453 00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:52.320 maybe you need to start doing a robix or maybe you need to do calistanas 454 00:40:52.440 --> 00:41:00.440 or But what you want to do is start improving your body, improve your 455 00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:06.679 nervous system, improving your heart. The key is to challenge yourself. So 456 00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:09.840 life is not easy. I always teach my kids. You know, life 457 00:41:10.039 --> 00:41:14.760 is not easy. You have to work for it. If you want results, 458 00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:16.360 you got to work for it. If you want to get stronger, 459 00:41:16.639 --> 00:41:22.280 you got to lift weights. If you want your memory to improve, you 460 00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:29.519 got to challenge your brain. You know. Try and just challenge yourself with 461 00:41:29.639 --> 00:41:35.920 different brain tests. Remember people's phone numbers, and remember your grocery list, 462 00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:42.760 and try and remember directions, and you know, purposely challenge yourself and don't 463 00:41:42.840 --> 00:41:46.760 rely on the technology. We were talking about before, about digital dementia. 464 00:41:47.000 --> 00:41:53.239 When people are relying on the technology, their brains become weaker. They use 465 00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:59.760 the GPS instead of a map, they use a calculator instead of math from 466 00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:05.480 their brain. They look at the phone book rather than memorize somebody's phone number. 467 00:42:06.119 --> 00:42:09.320 You know. They google everything or YouTube everything instead of learning on their 468 00:42:09.360 --> 00:42:15.920 own. So the technology, all those convenient can actually make us worse and 469 00:42:16.199 --> 00:42:22.239 stupider and dumber digital dementiam And I want to do whatever I can to prevent 470 00:42:22.519 --> 00:42:28.639 dementiam. I don't want to wait till my memory starts getting mad and then 471 00:42:28.719 --> 00:42:32.400 start working on it. By that time there could be already permanent problems. 472 00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:37.559 So the key is to prevent. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound 473 00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:44.039 of cure. You know, I don't want people to suffer and get Alzheimer's 474 00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:47.599 disease. I saw it with my Grandma Datty. How every year after she 475 00:42:47.679 --> 00:42:52.159 moved to Florida, her brain got worse and worse. She lived a sedentary 476 00:42:52.239 --> 00:42:57.400 lifestyle. She just sat on the couch watching TV all day. Before she 477 00:42:57.519 --> 00:43:00.280 moved to Florida, when she was in New Yorker, she was always active. 478 00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:07.719 She was playing tennis, yet social interaction. She had her card game, 479 00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:14.519 she made dinner for the family. She was always dressing up and going 480 00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:19.480 out and dancing, and she always looked so beautiful. But then once she 481 00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:22.920 moved down to Florida, she stopped cooking, stopped tennis, she stopped dancing, 482 00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:29.880 stopped cards, stopped the social event. So everything was put on hold 483 00:43:30.320 --> 00:43:35.800 and she became a sedentary lifestyle. Then her brain got worse and worse and 484 00:43:35.840 --> 00:43:38.119 worse. At first, it was just like, oh, where'd I put 485 00:43:38.159 --> 00:43:43.079 my keys? And then it was like, wait a second, why did 486 00:43:43.079 --> 00:43:47.119 I come into the kitchen and the third and then it was like things started 487 00:43:47.119 --> 00:43:52.119 getting dirty or she stopped cleaning, she stopped cooking, she stopped remembering people's 488 00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:59.480 names, and then eventually got to the point where she had dementia and she 489 00:43:59.519 --> 00:44:01.559 was miserable. She had to go to a nursing home, she had to 490 00:44:01.559 --> 00:44:06.440 go to a wheelchair, shit to get a diaper, lost her memory, 491 00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:10.480 lost her passion for life. I don't want that to happen to anybody else. 492 00:44:10.480 --> 00:44:17.400 So I became super obsessed with knowing the brain, learning everything about the 493 00:44:17.440 --> 00:44:22.840 brain and figuring out how to prevent dementia and how to prevent Alzheimer's. And 494 00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:28.119 that is my life goal, and that's what I do in my offices, 495 00:44:28.280 --> 00:44:32.119 that's what I write about in my books, that's what my social media is 496 00:44:32.159 --> 00:44:37.800 about. So if you're interested in preventing Alzheimer's, preventing dementia, you can 497 00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:43.119 follow all our stuff. You can purchase my book on Amazon. It's called 498 00:44:43.320 --> 00:44:46.800 Boost your Brain Power, A Guide to Improving your Memory and Focus by doctor 499 00:44:46.920 --> 00:44:51.679 Eric Cavan. There's a big picture of a blue brain on it with a 500 00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:54.159 black cover. Right. You can get that on Amazon. I have another 501 00:44:54.199 --> 00:45:00.159 book called Concussion Discussions. You can get that on Concussion discussions dot com. 502 00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:05.320 That is about how if you do hit your head in the past, then 503 00:45:05.360 --> 00:45:10.159 we can actually lead to dimension later on. So just remember that. You 504 00:45:10.199 --> 00:45:13.960 know, even if you hit your head twenty years ago, it could still 505 00:45:13.960 --> 00:45:17.840 affect you to this day.

I 550 00:48:37.800 --> 00:48:42.280 am not the doctor for you. If you don't want to put in the 551 00:48:42.320 --> 00:48:45.800 work, don't come to me. So I might say, you gotta change 552 00:48:45.800 --> 00:48:49.840 your diet, you gotta quit this food, or you gotta start doing these 553 00:48:49.840 --> 00:48:52.960 breathing exercise, or you might do some posture stuff, or you might do 554 00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:55.760 some eye exercise their memory exercise. It's not gonna be a lot, but 555 00:48:55.840 --> 00:49:00.599 you gotta do it every day consistently. That is the k. So if 556 00:49:00.639 --> 00:49:04.079 you're not ready to put the work in, don't sign up for me. 557 00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:07.719 But if you're sick and tired of being sick and tired, if you don't 558 00:49:07.719 --> 00:49:12.599 want to keep seeing doctors getting on more medication, doing more surgeries, if 559 00:49:12.599 --> 00:49:19.440 you want to take a more holistic, integrative approach to healthcare, where we 560 00:49:19.480 --> 00:49:23.920 look how everything works together, not individual pieces, not the specialization of modern 561 00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:29.880 medicine. What I am as a very holistic integrative doctor, how it looks 562 00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:34.920 how everything works together. Get to the root cause of the problem. Rather 563 00:49:34.960 --> 00:49:39.920 than treating symptoms with pills, medications, herbs, supplements. We want to 564 00:49:39.920 --> 00:49:45.079 get to the root cause. That's why the evaluations are so important. We 565 00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:49.039 get to the root cause, then we could prevent future problems. All right, 566 00:49:49.519 --> 00:49:51.880 So, if you're ready to put into work, if you're ready to 567 00:49:51.880 --> 00:49:57.039 take the advice, follow my suggestions, and you really want to improve your 568 00:49:57.039 --> 00:50:01.079 health, improve your quality of life, improve your independence, your energy, 569 00:50:01.119 --> 00:50:07.920 your immune system, your brain function, your posture, your vision, everything 570 00:50:07.960 --> 00:50:12.199 can improve. Don't let doctors tell you that things get worse as you get 571 00:50:12.239 --> 00:50:15.719 older. Don't let your friends tell you, oh, it's just old age. 572 00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:21.000 Don't be around people who are negative who criticize you. Be around people 573 00:50:21.039 --> 00:50:23.519 who are healthy, who are positive, because you're going to surround yourself with 574 00:50:23.559 --> 00:50:29.840 people that you want to be like. Don't surround yourself with unhealthy people who 575 00:50:29.920 --> 00:50:35.159 go to the bar every night and get drunk and eat donuts for snacks every 576 00:50:35.239 --> 00:50:39.440 day and eat pizza and fried food. You want to be around people who 577 00:50:39.480 --> 00:50:44.599 care about their health, who want to be active, to exercise, who 578 00:50:44.639 --> 00:50:50.440 want to get outside and be social and get sunlined and have fun. Remember 579 00:50:50.440 --> 00:50:54.559 there's twenty four hours in a day. Eight hours is rest, eight hours 580 00:50:54.639 --> 00:51:00.800 is work, and eight hours is fun. If you function better, you 581 00:51:00.840 --> 00:51:06.000 feel better, you live a better life. And that is my goal, 582 00:51:06.119 --> 00:51:09.280 and that is my passion in life, is to help people improve their health, 583 00:51:09.440 --> 00:51:15.599 improve their well being because the power that made the body heals the body 584 00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:21.320 as long as we get rid of any interference and let the body heal on 585 00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:25.679 its own. The Doctor of the future is not treating patients with surgery and 586 00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:31.880 medication, but is teaching people how to help themselves through diet, through posture, 587 00:51:32.320 --> 00:51:37.800 through brain function, and that is the future of medicine.
