3
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:17.120
boost your brain power. I'm your
host, doctor Eric Kaplan. We're gonna

4
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:22.879
talk about how to improve your brain
function. One of the things that's super

5
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:30.600
important to understand is that most of
the brain's function is happening automatically. You

6
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:35.679
ever hear the expression, oh,
we only use ten percent of our brain.

7
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:40.840
However, ten percent is what we're
aware of, meaning that's the voluntary

8
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:44.799
part. You know, when you
want to go drink a glass of water,

9
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.159
you voluntarily say, Okay, I'm
gonna, you know, go to

10
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:52.000
the fridge. I'm gonna get the
water. I'm gonna get a glass.

11
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:55.439
I'm gonna take my hand and pour
the water. I'm gonna sip it,

12
00:00:55.439 --> 00:01:00.640
it's gonna swallow. You're consciously thinking
of all these things, but ninety percent

13
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:07.319
of your body's action that's occurring is
happening automatically, just keeping you upright and

14
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:11.239
stabilizing, moving your hips and your
legs, getting your heart to beat,

15
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:17.840
your lungs to breathe. Everything that's
happening you don't even think about it.

16
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:23.680
It's automatic. That's ninety percent of
your brain's bodies function. Most of it

17
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:32.280
is coming from the autonomic nervous system, the autoonomic nervous system. The autonomic

18
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:38.560
nervous system controls everything, the eyes, the ears, the thyroid, your

19
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.640
lungs, your heart, your liver, your spleen, your pancreas, your

20
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:47.799
kidney, your adrenal gland, your
esophagus, your stomach, your intestines,

21
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:53.280
your bladder, your prostate, your
uterus, your testes are all controlled by

22
00:01:53.959 --> 00:02:01.200
your autonomic nervous system. So my
suggestion is to take care of your autonomic

23
00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:08.879
nervous system so all those body parts
function and optimal levels. If you're having

24
00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:17.479
breathing difficulties, if you have COPD, if you have asthma, if you

25
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:24.000
have bronchitis, if you get pneumonia, you get sick easily, you get

26
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:31.080
a lot of congestion, you're always
coughing, there's an issue in your lungs.

27
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:38.719
Most of the time it's coming from
your autonomic nervous system. I can't

28
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:45.919
tell you how many people I evaluate
and their breathing is off. You're supposed

29
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:53.599
to have a one to two ratio
of your inhale to exhale. That's most

30
00:02:53.800 --> 00:03:00.000
appropriate breathing. The majority of patients
that come into my office with these neurals

31
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:06.960
logical problems are breathing at a one
to one ratio. And what that means

32
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.280
is you're not getting rid of the
carbon dioxide and you're not maximizing your oxygen

33
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:19.280
intake. The brain needs more oxygen
and the body needs to get rid of

34
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:27.599
that carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide creates
an acidic environment, and disease loves a

35
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:31.240
cidic environment. I don't care if
it's diabetes, heart disease, obesity,

36
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:37.879
cancer, they love an acidic environment. So you've got to get rid of

37
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.599
your carbon dioxide. So most people
tell you to focus on the inhale.

38
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:46.319
It's much better to focus on your
exhale. You want to excel really long.

39
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.240
That relaxes your nervous system, and
that gives all the trees and the

40
00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:53.800
plants and the bushes and the fruits
and the veggies all the carbon dioxide they

41
00:03:53.879 --> 00:04:00.560
need to thrive. We have a
symbiotic relationship in nature. We have animals

42
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:06.840
take in the oxygen from the plants, and the animals exhale the carbon dioxide,

43
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:13.240
which is bad for us, but
very good for the plants. So

44
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.439
start focusing on your exhale. That
is going to give you your biggest bang

45
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:24.079
for your buck. But it's controlled
by your autonomic nervous system. So in

46
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:28.920
the beginning, if your lungs aren't
working properly, you might have to do

47
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:33.680
some breathing exercises. Inhale for four
seconds, hold your breath for seven seconds,

48
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:39.560
exhale for eight seconds. That's one
of the best breathing exercises you could

49
00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:44.360
do. Or another good one is
you take a big breath in and then

50
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.600
towards the very end of the breath
at the inhale, you take another big

51
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:51.240
breath even deeper. So you like
this, so you take a big breath

52
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:58.839
and then another big breath and then
you slowly exhale. That's gonna be good

53
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.240
breathing exercise. Make sure you get
plants, snake plants, spider plants,

54
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:09.160
money plants, alobara plants. Fill
your apartment or house or home with lots

55
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:15.000
of plants. If you can be
around trees, make sure your house or

56
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:19.000
home or apartment is around trees and
nature. And you know or even the

57
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:25.399
ocean is great, and you know
salt water air is amazing, and the

58
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:30.600
salt water almost cures everything. You
know, if I have a beasting,

59
00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:33.199
I go into the ocean and it
helps it. If I have poison,

60
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:39.240
ivy goes into the ocean, it
helps it. Somebody has exema, go

61
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:46.639
into the ocean, it helps it, scar lesions, everything. The salt

62
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:54.959
water is really good for healing your
body. If the nail problem, your

63
00:05:55.000 --> 00:06:00.240
nails aren't looking too good, put
your feet in that ocean water. There's

64
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:05.639
no better cure than nature. Use
the ocean water, use the sand,

65
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:12.839
use the trees, eat those fruits
and veggies. The earth is made to

66
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:16.600
give you health, and outside the
earth we have the sun. So just

67
00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:27.600
use nature. Stop depending on supplements, vitamins, herbs, medicine, drugs,

68
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:36.639
coffee, alcohol, cigarettes, Stop
depending on all these things to feel

69
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:47.000
better. Start using your own body
potential. You have a pharmacy in your

70
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:54.199
muscles. You start lifting weights,
that's going to increase brain function. You

71
00:06:54.240 --> 00:07:00.839
start exercising, increase brain function.
Start socializing, increase brain function. You

72
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:05.879
start helping other people and doing charity
work. That increases brain function. If

73
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:13.160
you spend time with your friends and
family, that increases brain function. Grandparents

74
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.839
who spend more time with their grandkids
are less likely to develop to mention Alzheimer's,

75
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:23.399
and grandkids who spend more time with
grandparents are less likely to have anxiety

76
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:32.399
depression troubles with focused add ADHD.
It's another symbiotic relationship, and the parents

77
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:38.360
get benefit too because they get a
little break from the kids. So spend

78
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:44.439
time with your grandkids. Spend time
with your grandparents. Make it happen if

79
00:07:44.439 --> 00:07:46.839
you want to boost your brain power. If you want to boost your brain

80
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:49.639
power, you gotta drink water.
Supposed to drink half your body weight in

81
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:54.040
ounces. If you weigh one hundred
and fifty pounds, you need seventy five

82
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:58.399
ounces of water a day. You
want to drink it on an empty stomach.

83
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:01.360
Water is best absorbed on an empty
stomach. Stop drinking water with your

84
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.920
meals or after your meals. Only
until your food's fully digested can you drink

85
00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:09.000
water. So the best time is
right when you wake up in the morning

86
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:13.199
and a half hour before each meal, and then right before bed. That's

87
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:22.480
when your stomach is most empty.
Also add salt because the salt helps to

88
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.720
bring in the water. So when
you drink your water, put a pinch

89
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.159
of Pinkimelaine salt or Celtic salt,
which has a lot of minerals which is

90
00:08:31.200 --> 00:08:37.000
going to help to bring the water
and get absorbed in your body. Just

91
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.080
a pinch, a little bit.
You don't want to taste the salt,

92
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:46.679
but you want to have enough for
it to create this where the water gets

93
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:50.039
drawn into the cells. You don't
want to waste your water by drinking acidic

94
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:54.919
water. You want the water to
be useful and drink alkaline water. And

95
00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:58.960
the way to do that is to
take a pinch of pink melaine salt or

96
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:01.039
Celtic salt. Be careful with all
these things that you're gonna see at the

97
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:07.559
supermarket. Oh, electrolyte water,
Oh you know, alkaline water. You

98
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:11.360
know most of those waters are crap. Get a filter at home and put

99
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.559
your salt in it manually. That's
the best way to do it. Squeeze

100
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.000
some lemons, some lime, give
it some flavor. Squeeze some oranges,

101
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:20.720
Put some cucumbers in there, pineapple, whatever you want if you want to

102
00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.399
give it some flavor, natural flavor. But just get that salt in there.

103
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:28.679
It's called solay water, pink kimelane
salt, and your filtered water from

104
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:33.320
home. You can get reverse osmosis
is pretty good, but you want to

105
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:39.039
get the ones that they see them
for your shower too, because you cansorb

106
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:45.639
through your skin as well. Getting
back to the autonomic nervous system right that

107
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:50.759
controls everything controls your thyroid. Can
tell you how many my pictures have thyroid

108
00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:54.440
problems. But guess what. You
don't always need to use medicine to help

109
00:09:54.480 --> 00:10:00.720
with your thyroid. It always depends
on what the thyroid cause, and the

110
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:05.200
way to figure that is to do
blood work. So what you have to

111
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:11.320
do is do a whole thyroid panel, including antibodies. Most thyroid problems actually

112
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:18.759
aren't a primary thyroid problem, but
they're an autoimmune disease that's called hashimotos or

113
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:26.679
Graves disease. But very few people
are actually checking for these antibodies. So

114
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:31.799
we actually have to do blood work
and check for these thyroid antibodies, peroxidase,

115
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:39.080
the TPO, so you know,
there's lots of different thyroid antibodies tests.

116
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.600
We can't just check for TSH or
T four. You know, we

117
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:45.879
got to do a whole panel.
There's about ten thyroid tests that need to

118
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:46.799
be done, and then we can
figure it out. Hey, is it

119
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:50.559
coming from the petuitary. Sometimes it's
not coming from the thyroid, but it's

120
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.879
coming from the petuitary, and then
that's a different type of therapy that you

121
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:58.840
would need to do. Okay,
the thyroid is not so simple. It's

122
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:05.399
not just underactive thyroid, overactive thyroid. It's not that simple. It's a

123
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:09.320
little bit more complicated. Do we
have a hashimotos, do we have a

124
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.879
graves? Do we have a pituitary
issue? Is it autoimmune disease? Is

125
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:18.399
it a primary thyroid, is it
a secondary thyroid? Is it hyperth thyroid?

126
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.639
Is it hypothyroid? So we need
to do a thorough analysis of the

127
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:28.279
blood work to figure that out,
because each one of those thyroid problems requires

128
00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:31.919
a different type of treatment. It
might be brain rehab, it might be

129
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:39.159
herbal remedies, it might be UH
dietary changes, nutritional habits. So it

130
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:43.759
might be a different type of treatment
depending on what the cause is. But

131
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:54.919
that's controlled by your autonomic nervousnes system
with your HPA access, your hypothalamo put

132
00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:58.480
tuitari adrenal access, and people with
this problem, they're going to be stressed

133
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:03.240
out and anxiety. They can get
insomnia, they could get panicked, they

134
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:09.759
could feel heart palpitations. They can
also get poor circulation. Their hands,

135
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.120
their feet get cold easily. They're
always cold, or they're always hot,

136
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:18.799
or they're always sweating, or they
don't sweat enough. They don't have a

137
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:24.799
good communication. Are they hungry?
Are they not hungry? Are they thirsty?

138
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.759
Are they not thirsty? It's the
regulatory centers in this hypothalmus. Are

139
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:30.840
we hot? Are we cold?
Are we hungry? Are we thirsty?

140
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:33.039
Are we up? Are we tired? Those systems are getting messed up.

141
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.480
They're tired during the day, they're
up during the night. You know,

142
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.799
you're hungry at night when you shouldn't
be. You're not hungry in the morning

143
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:46.480
when you should be. So everything's
thrown off with this HPA access. So

144
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:50.799
what we'd have to do is figure
out where the breakdown is. And all

145
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:56.600
my solutions are natural and holistic.
Don't call me up, don't contact me.

146
00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:58.919
If you're looking for a doctor who
just wants to write you prescription,

147
00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:03.080
he just wants to do surgeries,
he wants to give you pills, who

148
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:05.840
doesn't want to get to the root
cause of the problem. What I do

149
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:09.519
is get to the root cause of
the problem and teach you natural and holistic

150
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:16.320
ways to improve the function of your

website at kaplindc dot com. Hello
and welcome to boost your brain power.

165
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:31.960
I'm your host, doctor Eric Aplan. We're gonna be talking about the autonomic

166
00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:41.679
nervous system. The automatic nervous system, it controls everything that you don't think

167
00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:48.360
about, for example, your heart
right do you have to think, Oh,

168
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:52.559
I gotta beat my heart fast,
or I gotta slow it down,

169
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:56.960
or I gotta increase my blood pressure, I gotta open up the blood vessels.

170
00:14:56.240 --> 00:15:01.759
You don't think of any of that
stuff. Your body doing it automatically.

171
00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:07.600
But you want to make sure the
part of your brain that's responsible for

172
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:16.240
controlling your heart rate and your blood
pressure is functioning optimal levels. Because you

173
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.840
have troubles with your autonomic nervous system
that could lead to high blood pressure,

174
00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:26.799
that could lead to arrhythmias, that
could lead to heart palpitations that could lead

175
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:37.759
to poor circulation and blood flow,
called your cardiovascular system hypertension. You don't

176
00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:43.240
want to get put on all these
medications blood thinners and high blood pressure medication.

177
00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:52.519
Those are just trying to treat the
symptoms rather than get to the root

178
00:15:52.639 --> 00:16:00.000
cause of the problem. What if
the root cause of your high blood pressure

179
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:06.759
sure is that your nervous system is
overactive and you're in stress mode. What

180
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:11.039
we call the fight or flight mode. It's this fear mode. If you're

181
00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:15.279
in fear mode, then your blood
pressure is going to be high. Even

182
00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:22.799
when you're not doing anything that's stressful. It's normal for your blood pressure to

183
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:26.639
raise if you're you know, someone's
chasing you in the street trying to mug

184
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:33.000
you, or you're in a fight, or you're playing a football game and

185
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:37.399
you're in a sport or boxing or
karate or something like that. So when

186
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:41.200
you're doing something intense, you got
to run and catch the bus. You

187
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:47.639
have to. You're trying to beat
somebody in a race. Okay, we

188
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:52.279
want that heartgoing, that blood pressure, we got that blood pumping. But

189
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.320
most of the day you should be
in a relaxed state. Your blood pressure

190
00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:00.440
should be calm, your post right
should be reduced. You only want that

191
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:07.680
active. If you're really stressed out
or active or doing something physical other than

192
00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:11.160
that, it's a problem. Then
you're gonna wear out your heart. You're

193
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:15.519
gonna overuse it, and then you
get heart attacks and strokes and stuff like

194
00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:19.440
that. Don't wait till you get
a heart attack or stroke to start working

195
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:23.559
on calming down your nervous system.
The time is now. An ounce of

196
00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:29.279
prevention is worth a pound of cure. So how are you gonna reduce your

197
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:34.240
blood pressure now without medication? They're
very simple answers. Maybe you gotta start

198
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:40.880
eating healthier. Maybe you gotta eat
more fruits and vegetables, get the colors

199
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:44.720
of the rainbow every single day.
Maybe you have to eat less of the

200
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:51.960
white food, the sugar, the
milk, the bread, the pasta,

201
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:56.000
the potatoes, the rice, the
fried food, the pizza, the ice

202
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.160
cream, the desserts, the cakes, the pastries, the muffins, the

203
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:03.880
bagels, the suns, the cereals, the old meals, the crackers.

204
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:10.599
Stop all the white foods, start
eating the colorful foods. Maybe you got

205
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:14.920
to exercise more. Start off with
this little thing. I don't care if

206
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:19.319
you just start off running to the
end of the block, and then the

207
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:23.079
next day you run to the end
of the block and then walk a block,

208
00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:30.160
and the day after that you run
a block. Walk a block.

209
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:37.880
Run a block takes you five minutes, super simple. First day is one

210
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.119
minute, second day is three minutes, third day is five minutes. If

211
00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:48.759
you do it that way, it
becomes easier. It's not much a challenge.

212
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:52.799
Everybody could do one minute. You
just gotta do it. Just run

213
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:57.319
to that end of the block and
come right back. It's one minute of

214
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:00.359
exercise. But get in the habit
of doing every day. Every morning.

215
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.720
You want to exercise in the morning
with testosterone its highest, cortisols highest,

216
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:10.319
the sun's coming up. Boost your
energy. Stop drinking that cup of coffee

217
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:12.240
on an empty stomach first thing in
the morning. It's one of the worst

218
00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:18.599
things you could do for you.
That's gonna increase your blood pressure, your

219
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:25.519
pulse rate. That's gonna create anxiety, sleeping difficulties, energy problems, headaches.

220
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:30.680
Don't do what everybody else does.
If you do what everybody else does,

221
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:33.279
you're gonna end up like everybody else. Don't be like the ninety nine

222
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:38.839
percent of the Americans. You have
to be that one percent that exercises in

223
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:45.119
the morning, that doesn't drink coffee, that gets sunlight, drinks water,

224
00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:48.559
eats the colors of the rainbow,
stays away from the white foods, goes

225
00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:56.880
to bed early, helps other people, stays up the electronics. You could

226
00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:02.319
do these easy things just a little
bit of a time. Baby steps,

227
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:07.880
atomic hobbits. You just take these
micro steps and they start to build over

228
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:11.160
and over and over again. Stuff's
not that hard to do. You can

229
00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:15.119
wake up, drink a glass of
water, and run to the end of

230
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:25.559
the block in five minutes. But
you gotta do it every day, super

231
00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:30.319
important. Every day good habits twenty
one straight days will start to rewire your

232
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:33.400
brain. But if you want to
heal your heart, and you want to

233
00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:37.359
prevent high blood pressure, and you
want to get off that medicine, you

234
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:45.319
gotta do the work. And the
worst thing is doing too much stress at

235
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.039
night. And what's stressful watching the
news, listening to the news, reading

236
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:56.319
the newspaper. Don't do that at
night, watching these TV shows where you're

237
00:20:56.480 --> 00:21:02.039
you know, people are shooting each
other or zombies are eating you, or

238
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:07.680
people are you know, making drugs
and laboratories and police are finding you know,

239
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:11.039
rapists and murderers, and you know, we're going back to the old

240
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:15.279
medieval wars. And you know this
is what people watch. It's all stressful,

241
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:21.720
blood, gore, murder, killing. You're watching this right before bed.

242
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:25.640
It's not smart. It's gonna create
stress mode, high blood pressure,

243
00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:30.039
anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, muscle
tension, neck pain, back pain.

244
00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:37.240
Stop putting yourself in stress mode voluntarily. You don't have to do that.

245
00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:41.920
You gotta unplug it night. If
you're If it's at night and your lights

246
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.119
are on, the TV's on,
the computer's on, you're looking at your

247
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:51.400
cell phone, looking at the iPad. You're stimulating cortisol, the stress hormone

248
00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:57.599
that's gonna mess with your autonomic nervous
system at nighttime. Dim the lights,

249
00:21:57.880 --> 00:22:03.319
turn off the TV, turn off
your computer. If you need to do

250
00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:07.279
computer work, do it earlier in
the day. If you want to scroll

251
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:11.039
through your Facebook or social media,
your text message, your emails, do

252
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:17.160
it when the sun is out.
During nighttime. You have to relax your

253
00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:26.079
brain, so start reading a book, start listening to music, start playing

254
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:33.039
a board game, start writing in
a journal, Start giving gratitude, Start

255
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:41.400
talking to your spouse or family members, walk the dog, clean your closet,

256
00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:48.599
organize your life. Be productive.
Do something healthy. Take a dance

257
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:56.039
class, take a music lesson,
join a book club, do something social.

258
00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:04.480
Play poker with your friends, join
a tennis club, do something fun,

259
00:23:06.079 --> 00:23:12.240
social, active, get out of
the house. You want to improve

260
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:21.480
your brain function, then start unplugging
at night. Start turning off those electronics.

261
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:27.640
It's too stimulating. You should also
not eat at night. We eat

262
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:34.119
for energy. Why are you gonna
eat at night when you're trying to relax.

263
00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:41.359
You need to eat during the day
when you need energy. You eat

264
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:44.440
like a king for breakfast, a
prince for lunch, and a pauper for

265
00:23:44.480 --> 00:23:49.200
dinner. So you should eat very
little at night. And you want to

266
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:56.279
stop eating four hours before bedtime.
So the ideal way to do that is

267
00:23:56.359 --> 00:24:04.240
to eat from ten am to six
pm and sleep from ten pm to six

268
00:24:04.440 --> 00:24:10.200
a m. That's the only thing
you did. Your blood pressure would go

269
00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:15.680
down, your energy would improve,
you would lose weight. There's so many

270
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:19.160
easy ways to lose weight. People
just don't do the work. Just stop

271
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:22.880
eating at night. You would lose
weight. Go to bed at ten o'clock

272
00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:33.400
you will lose weight without changing anything
else. It's so easy to stop eating

273
00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:37.839
at night. Your life will change. In the beginning, it might be

274
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:41.319
hard because you might get hungry.
When you get hungry, you just drink

275
00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:42.200
the water, like I said,
on an empty stomach, that's when you

276
00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:49.960
drink your water. But if you're
doing something to distract yourself, then you

277
00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:56.480
won't be as hungry. You're just
sitting on the couch watching TV and you

278
00:24:56.519 --> 00:25:03.160
see the people on TV eating the
commercials are getting your salvary glands stimulated.

279
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:07.599
Yeah, you're gonna eat food,
all right, So unplug at night and

280
00:25:07.799 --> 00:25:12.319
don't eat at night, and that's
past six pm, and go to bed

281

293
00:26:18.319 --> 00:26:25.039
Kaplan. You're listening to boost your
brain power. We want to talk about

294
00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:29.920
your autonomic nervous system, which is
your automatic nervous system. You need to

295
00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:34.720
get this part of your brain functioning
at highest levels so you can perform best

296
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:42.079
and improve your quality of life.
This autonomic nervous system controls your liver,

297
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:48.319
which has to detoxify. Now,
let's say you're exposed to mold, or

298
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:56.359
you have heavy metal poisoning, or
there's some allergies. Right, everybody's exposed

299
00:26:56.400 --> 00:27:06.480
to mold, everybody's exposed to heavy
metals. Everybody is exposed to these allergies,

300
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:11.720
whether it's dust or dog hair or
pollen. We're all exposed to this

301
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:15.960
stuff. But how come some people
get affected by the mold? How come

302
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:22.519
some people get affected by the heavy
metals? How come some people get affected

303
00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:29.680
by the allergies. It's because their
systems aren't working properly. It's not the

304
00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:34.799
environment, it's your inside. It
could be your livers not detoxifying properly because

305
00:27:34.839 --> 00:27:41.720
your autonomic nervous system isn't working at
optimal levels. So, if you have

306
00:27:42.000 --> 00:27:49.319
allergies, mold exposure, heavy metal
poisoning, there's a problem with your systems.

307
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:56.519
It's overloaded. The task is too
hard to handle. Your body cannot

308
00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:00.160
get rid of it. And what
you do, oh, let me do

309
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:11.119
this detox. You can't heal from
the outside. People will drink celery juice,

310
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:18.119
right, so that might help a
little bit. But what happens when

311
00:28:18.119 --> 00:28:22.359
you get more heavy metals. Now
you gotta drink more celery juice, and

312
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:25.599
then you get more mold, and
then you gotta do this mold protocol,

313
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:30.839
and then you get more allergies.
Now you take the allergy medication. So

314
00:28:30.920 --> 00:28:37.519
it's not a permanent solution. We
don't want to treat the symptoms with celery

315
00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:42.000
juice, with herbs, with vitamins, with medication. We want to find

316
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:48.480
out why it's happening. Yes,
obviously you don't want to have mold in

317
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:57.599
your house, Okay, So if
your basement was flooded, Yeah, you

318
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:03.759
might have some mold and you might
have to remedy that. Okay. But

319
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:06.279
there's gonna be mold everywhere, and
most of it you can't see. It's

320
00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:10.559
microscopic. There's always gonna be mold
in your shower, in your bathroom and

321
00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:15.759
the basement. Anywhere there's moisture,
there's mold. But you need to get

322
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:19.240
your body stronger so it can handle
the mold. That's where everybody's getting it

323
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:26.559
wrong. You have to handle it
better. So if your inside systems are

324
00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:32.279
working better, your livers detoxing,
your stomach, acid's killing off the bed

325
00:29:32.359 --> 00:29:36.799
stuff, you're pooping it out,
you're peeing it out, you're sneezing it

326
00:29:36.839 --> 00:29:40.920
out, you're coughing it out.
Your boggers come out, your earwax comes

327
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:45.599
out, your tears come out,
your sweat comes out. Your body is

328
00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:52.400
amazing at detoxifying when it's working properly. But what if it's not working properly.

329
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:56.519
What if your autonomic nervous system isn't
functioning optimal levels. Now you can't

330
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:02.960
handle the allergies, and you can't
handle the mold or the dust or the

331
00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:07.880
pollen, or you can't handle the
heavy metals the mercury in the fish,

332
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:11.200
or the stuff that's in the medication, or the lead that's in the water.

333
00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:18.039
If your body gets stronger, then
it can handle the workload. We

334
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:23.640
don't want to voluntarily put heavy metals
into our bodies. So if we're worried

335
00:30:23.680 --> 00:30:27.599
about eating too much fish, it's
better to have the smaller fish. They

336
00:30:27.640 --> 00:30:32.680
have less mercury. It's better to
get a good water filter that will filter

337
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:37.920
out the lead or the chlorine or
the and they even have a fluorine in

338
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:42.400
the water. You want to get
that out. That's a neurotoxin. You

339
00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:47.720
don't want to give your body too
much to handle. But there's toxins everywhere.

340
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:51.240
You know, when a baby's born, they're born with two hundred and

341
00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:57.200
ninety chemicals already exposed. That's in
utero. I mean, we're every day

342
00:30:57.319 --> 00:31:03.119
more and more chemicals and it's getting
worse and worse. So reduce your chemical

343
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:08.839
exposure, but make your body stronger
so they can handle it. And how

344
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:15.119
do you make your body stronger,
You have to rewire your autonomic nervous system.

345
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:21.839
Through a process called neuroplasticity. You
can actually strengthen your autonomic nervous system.

346
00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:26.799
Just like you could go to the
gym and strengthen a muscle. You

347
00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:33.519
can strengthen your nervous system and your
brain by doing neurologic exercises. They might

348
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:38.799
be eye exercises, or they might
be different lights or sounds or smells,

349
00:31:38.880 --> 00:31:45.119
or different coordination or joint movements,
or memory exercises, or balance exercises or

350
00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:52.640
breathing exercises, or you might have
to do coordination exercises. Your brain can

351
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:59.759
be strengthened. You can even do
stuff with infrared and cold laser therapy and

352
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:07.839
hyperbaric oxygen chambers and neurofeedback machines.
And there's so much cool technology and equipment

353
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:12.920
out there that can stimulate your brain
in a natural way without any drugs or

354
00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:16.160
surgery. And we do these things
at our offices. We have two offices,

355
00:32:16.640 --> 00:32:21.119
one in New Jersey and Emerson and
Bergen County, and then we have

356
00:32:21.119 --> 00:32:24.839
one in Manhattan in New York City
in the West Village where we do these

357
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:30.839
processes called neuroplasticity. So I'm a
functional neurologist, which is very different than

358
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:35.920
a medical neurologist. So right,
I said, don't come to me if

359
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:38.160
you want the medicine. So,
if you have headaches, I'm not going

360
00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:43.440
to write you a prescription for headache
medication. If you have anxiety, I'm

361
00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:46.599
not going to write you a prescription
for anxiety medication. If you have sleeping

362
00:32:46.599 --> 00:32:52.039
difficulties, I'm not going to write
you a prescription for sleeping pills. I

363
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:58.119
don't write prescriptions for antibiotics and steroids. I'm not giving you pread in his

364
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:06.440
zone I'm not trying to hide your
problem and cover up symptoms with a band

365
00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:12.319
aid of medication. But my job
and what my staff and team does at

366
00:33:12.359 --> 00:33:16.240
Caplin Brain and Body is get to
the root cause of the problem. But

367
00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:23.000
how are you're going to know where
the problems coming from? The best way

368
00:33:23.599 --> 00:33:34.079
to determine where the problem is is
through a qEEG brain mapping. This is

369
00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:38.920
a neurologic evaluation that has no radiation. You don't have to take any contrast

370
00:33:38.960 --> 00:33:45.119
fluid, you don't have to sit
in some small claustrophobic tube. It's super

371
00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:50.799
quick, only takes about ten to
twenty minutes to perform. All you have

372
00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:53.720
to do is where this little cap. It looks like a swimmer's cap,

373
00:33:54.200 --> 00:33:59.559
but it's got electrodes attached to it, and it measures all your brain ways,

374
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:02.640
which is your alpha brain waves and
your beta and your theta and your

375
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:08.360
delta. Alpha brain waves are how
our brain is pretty much most of the

376
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:15.239
day. Now it is probably right
now. The beta bain waves, those

377
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:19.599
beta brain waves, those are when
you really got focused and you gotta think,

378
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:22.840
and you're reading a book, or
you're taking a test, or you're

379
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:24.800
giving a speech, When you really
got to focus, you got a big

380
00:34:24.840 --> 00:34:30.440
project at work, that's when your
beta bain waves kick in. Then you

381
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:35.480
have your theta brain waves, your
theta brain waves. That's when you're daydreaming.

382
00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:38.519
You're just looking out the window,
listening to the birds, kind of

383
00:34:38.599 --> 00:34:43.920
just in La la land, not
really focused or thinking, just kind of

384
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:49.480
daydreaming. That's the Theta brain waves. And the last one is those delta

385
00:34:49.519 --> 00:34:52.960
brain waves. That's when we're sleeping, when our brain should be shut off

386
00:34:53.000 --> 00:34:57.800
and calm and relaxed, and we
get that rest and digest and we get

387
00:34:57.800 --> 00:35:00.960
those rims. That's when we're you
know, kind of out. The brain's

388
00:35:01.000 --> 00:35:06.599
not active, it doesn't need to
do anything. We're sleeping. Now,

389
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:12.480
what's more important than the different types
of brain waves is the location of where

390
00:35:12.519 --> 00:35:17.320
we find these abnormal brain waves when
we do a qEEG brain mapping, So

391
00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:23.599
based on the location of the abnormal
brain waves, we can determine what areas

392
00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:29.199
of the brain are functioning well and
which areas of the brain are not functioning

393
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:32.079
well. And it's really cool.
It'll tell us do you have anxiety,

394
00:35:32.360 --> 00:35:37.840
do you have depression? Do you
have short term memory problems, long term

395
00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:43.079
memory problems? Do you have immediate
memory problems, working memory problems. Do

396
00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:49.239
you have difficulties shifting tasks? Do
you have confusion, brain FuG low motivation,

397
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:54.599
poor organization, planning skills, executive
functions. Do you have trouble with

398
00:35:54.719 --> 00:36:00.519
sensory issues with your eyes or your
ears? Ringing in the ears, loaders,

399
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:04.679
headaches, dizziness. Do you have
balance problems? Do you have a

400
00:36:04.719 --> 00:36:09.760
thyroid problem in testinal inflammations there heavy
metal poisoning. Have you had a concussion.

401
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:19.320
Do you have any anger, aggression, insomnia, sleep deprivation, neurotransmitters,

402
00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:23.880
problems with dopamine, aceto coline.
This test literally picks up all of

403
00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:30.800
this stuff without any risk or side
effects. It's one of my favorite tests

404
00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:36.119
to perform on our patients because it's
very valuable with very little risk and high

405
00:36:36.239 --> 00:36:40.639
reward. This test normally is five
hundred dollars, but we're gonna give it

406
00:36:40.639 --> 00:36:45.719
a gift for the first seven people
that call text or email can get this

407
00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:52.760
qEEG brain mapping that's normally five hundred
dollars for only twenty one dollars, but

408
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:59.480
it's only for the first seven people
that call text or email. The phone

409
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:02.280
number that you could call her text
is six four, six, two two

410
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:09.039
one, six, seven three eight, or you can email info at kaplanbrainbody

411
00:37:09.360 --> 00:37:13.239
dot com. Just tell them you
want to be one of the first seven

412
00:37:13.320 --> 00:37:17.599
people to do the QEG brain mapping
for only twenty one dollars. Because you

digestive problems. Doctor Kaplan is most
famous for getting to the root cause of

423
00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:12.480
a wide variety of brain and health
conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional

424
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.840
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact
doctor Kamplin, you can call his team

426
00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:28.519
website at kaplindc dot com. Hello, this is doctor Eric Kaplan. You're

427
00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:34.679
listening to oost your brain power.
We always want to make sure for our

428
00:38:34.760 --> 00:38:39.559
brains to function at highest levels,
that our autonomic nervous system is in hip

429
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:45.960
top shape. The better your autonomic
function is, the better your health is.

430
00:38:47.480 --> 00:38:57.440
So what that means is when your
autonomic nervous system is not connecting properly,

431
00:38:57.679 --> 00:39:01.360
the neurons aren't firing like they're suppose, it's like the signal is weak,

432
00:39:02.119 --> 00:39:07.960
it's slow. Then what's gonna happen. You're gonna be stuck in what's

433
00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:13.280
called the fighter flight mode, which
is the stress mode rather than a relaxed

434
00:39:13.519 --> 00:39:22.920
rest and digest. So when people
have irritobow syndrome, or they have ulcerat

435
00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:34.480
of colitis, or they have sebow
small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, so they have

436
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:49.320
siliac disease, autoimmune problems, leaky
gut, chrome's disease, gas stritis,

437
00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:58.360
acid reflux, gird these are just
the labels that they give you. But

438
00:39:58.480 --> 00:40:02.800
what's going on is your autonomic nervous
system isn't functioning properly, and you're not

439
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:12.079
in this rest and digest So your
digestive system isn't functioning properly, whether you're

440
00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:17.800
not giving enough stomach acid, or
you have bad bacterial growth, or you

441
00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:27.280
don't have the proper peristalsis contractions,
or your valves, your illeoseekal valve isn't

442
00:40:27.320 --> 00:40:32.400
opening and closing properly, or you're
dehydrated and everything's shriveling up like a raisin,

443
00:40:35.519 --> 00:40:40.880
or your poop is too hard and
it's hard to get through. There's

444
00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:45.800
so many different problems in there,
but it's the issue is the function.

445
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:50.280
So stop just trying to cover up
symptoms. Here, let me take an

446
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:52.039
an acid. That's one of the
worst things people do all the time.

447
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:59.519
When you take an an acid,
you're literally decreasing your stomach acid. Now

448
00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:01.920
you're not gonna be able to digest
food. Your immune system is gonna become

449
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:09.239
weak. Stop hiding symptoms. You
don't want an acids because you need stomach

450
00:41:09.360 --> 00:41:13.800
acid. That's the most important thing
for your immune system and your digestion.

451
00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:22.159
Better then ant acid is figuring out
why do I have acid reflux? Why

452
00:41:22.199 --> 00:41:27.800
do I have gird or gastritis,
Why am I backed up? Why do

453
00:41:27.880 --> 00:41:35.920
I have constipation? It's because the
systems aren't working properly. So maybe you

454
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:43.840
need stomach acid, maybe you need
bacteria, Maybe you need your vegus nerve

455
00:41:43.920 --> 00:41:49.639
to work properly. The vegus nerve
controls your gut, So if your vegus

456
00:41:49.679 --> 00:41:52.599
nerve isn't working, then you're not
going to get those systems. Those peristalsis

457
00:41:52.639 --> 00:42:00.119
contractions, the opening of the valves. Everything is gonna get stuck. You're

458
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:06.800
gonna you're not gonna have good bowel
movements. If you have good digestion and

459
00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:13.440
eat three meals a day, what
you should do is have one good big

460
00:42:13.719 --> 00:42:20.280
bowl movement every morning. And the
bowel movement should be s shaped and it

461
00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:25.639
should be partial sinking and partial floating. That is ideal. Anything other than

462
00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:34.239
that is not ideal. Okay,
then your systems aren't working properly. Okay.

463
00:42:34.280 --> 00:42:37.880
Your food when you sleep at night, that's when it's digesting, breaking

464
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:39.159
it down, and then when you
wake up in the morning, that's the

465
00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:44.280
time to eliminate everything. Shouldn't be
having bowel movements after every meal. That's

466
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:47.320
not good. Shouldn't need four in
the morning, that's not good. Should

467
00:42:47.320 --> 00:42:52.239
have one big bowl movement every single
morning. That's the efficient system. And

468
00:42:52.280 --> 00:42:55.280
if it's not happening that way,
you gotta work on your vegas nerve.

469
00:42:55.719 --> 00:43:00.559
Maybe you need to exercise your vegus
nerve. You could exercise it with gargling

470
00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:04.840
really intensely. You could exercise it
with the gag reflex. As long as

471
00:43:04.880 --> 00:43:08.280
you don't have any history of bolima. There's lots of ways you can exercise

472
00:43:08.360 --> 00:43:14.280
it. We've got thousands of ways. But it's not necessarily going to fix

473
00:43:14.360 --> 00:43:19.599
your problem. You know, that
could help it along the way. But

474
00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:22.119
you might have an issue, let's
say in the right vegas nerve versus the

475
00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:28.639
left, or you might need help
with circulation, or you might have inflammation,

476
00:43:29.239 --> 00:43:31.079
or you might need to change your
diet, or might need to get

477
00:43:31.079 --> 00:43:37.199
better sleep, or you might need
to be more hydration. There's a lot

478
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:42.920
of factors that we need to consider. To figure this out, we should

479
00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:47.519
do an evaluation. One of the
best tests it's called a VNG video and

480
00:43:47.599 --> 00:43:53.199
nostography, and this is a test
where we put these goggles on your head.

481
00:43:53.199 --> 00:43:57.599
They got infrared cameras and they measure
your eye movements. It's also called

482
00:43:57.639 --> 00:44:01.360
video oculography, because I said,
is literally measuring your different eye moves fast

483
00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:06.000
ie mods slow eye moves to the
right, to the left with light,

484
00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:08.559
without light, with a head turn, all these different things over and over

485
00:44:08.599 --> 00:44:13.800
and over again. We can analyze
which areas are overactive and which areas are

486
00:44:13.880 --> 00:44:20.159
underactive. You know, if you're
overactive, you know your digestive system is

487
00:44:20.199 --> 00:44:22.760
gonna be more diarrhea. If it's
underactive, it's gonna be more constipation.

488
00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:29.039
If your brain is overactive, your
heart rate's gonna be really fast, and

489
00:44:29.079 --> 00:44:32.320
your blood pressure is gonna be high. But it's underactive, there are gonna

490
00:44:32.360 --> 00:44:36.199
be a little bit slower pulse right
in the all be lower blood pressure,

491
00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:39.159
and I get lightheaded and dizzy.
You know, it all depends. If

492
00:44:39.199 --> 00:44:43.360
it's overactive, you might be hyper
thyroid. If it's underactive, you might

493
00:44:43.400 --> 00:44:47.719
be hype both thyroid. So your
brain tells you everything. You know,

494
00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:51.760
if it's overactive, you're gonna breathe
really fast, short, and shallow.

495
00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:59.920
It's underactive, you're gonna send really
slow breaths, very bad, not good,

496
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:04.920
not strong. You know. If
it's overactive, you're gonna have insomnia.

497
00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:08.800
If it's underactive, you're gonna have
fatigue. It's overactive, you're gonna

498
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:13.400
have anxiety. If it's underactive,
you're gonna have depression. And some people

499
00:45:13.440 --> 00:45:17.360
switch back and forth left and right. But the VNG is the best test

500
00:45:17.400 --> 00:45:22.760
for that tells us which areas are
overactive, which areas are underactive. That

501
00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:27.360
test is normally five hundred dollars,
but for the first twenty for the first

502
00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:30.920
seven people that call text or email, you can receive that five hundred dollars

503
00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:36.400
test for only twenty one dollars.
The phone numbers six four, six,

504
00:45:36.519 --> 00:45:39.800
two two one, six, seven
three eight, and the email is info

505
00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:45.400
at Kaplinbrain and Body dot com.
That's gonna tell us the integrity of our

506
00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:49.559
brain, each lobes of the brain, the different areas the right, the

507
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:52.280
left, where the imbalances are.
People whose is also good for people with

508
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:57.960
memory problems, add troubles with focus, you know all that other stuff we

509
00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:00.039
spoke about as well. So this
is a great test. Take advantage of

510
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:05.360
the offer. We're going to do
another gift right now, which is a

511
00:46:05.440 --> 00:46:09.039
one on one evaluation with me,
and with this will go over all your

512
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:12.679
tests. If you do the previous
tests, you can do this one as

513
00:46:12.679 --> 00:46:16.199
well. If you've got blood work, bring in your blood work mriyes,

514
00:46:16.880 --> 00:46:21.400
any past tests that you've had.
We go over your history, your health

515
00:46:21.440 --> 00:46:28.360
recommendations, your health goals, you're
nutrition everything, your sleeping habits, your

516
00:46:28.400 --> 00:46:32.639
blood pressure, We go over your
respiration, your digestion. We do really

517
00:46:32.639 --> 00:46:38.599
good evaluation, rethorough consultation. We
even check your balance, your memory,

518
00:46:39.000 --> 00:46:42.920
all this stuff, range of motion, the eyes, the ears. It's

519
00:46:42.960 --> 00:46:46.280
pretty cool. It takes about forty
five minutes, but it's very valuable because

520
00:46:46.280 --> 00:46:51.239
we come up with a plant,
come up with a diagnosis, a prognosis,

521
00:46:51.280 --> 00:46:53.719
and the most important thing is a
health plan. And the health plan

522
00:46:53.800 --> 00:46:57.800
is going to say, okay,
what do I need to do to function

523
00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:01.119
better, feel better and live a
better life. But it's your responsibility.

524
00:47:02.480 --> 00:47:06.719
So remember I'm not the doctor that's
gonna, you know, do the surgeries

525
00:47:06.800 --> 00:47:09.119
up. You know you're you have
gall stones, let me just take out

526
00:47:09.119 --> 00:47:15.119
your gallbladder. No, we don't
do that here. We don't just write

527
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:19.840
prescription medication. That's not what we're
here. We're not covering up symptoms.

528
00:47:21.159 --> 00:47:23.800
The power that made the body heals
the body. But what we want to

529
00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:30.800
do is unleash the body's potential to
function as highest level. You only get

530
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:35.519
one body, so you got to
take care of that body. You got

531
00:47:35.519 --> 00:47:39.480
to take care of it better than
anything you could ever imagine, because it's

532
00:47:39.519 --> 00:47:43.840
for you, it's for your family, it's for your friends, it's for

533
00:47:43.920 --> 00:47:51.639
your job, it's for your kids, the next generation. If you're healthy,

534
00:47:51.880 --> 00:47:55.960
then you can help others. If
you're unhealthy, you're no good to

535
00:47:57.039 --> 00:48:00.559
your friend's family or the rest of
the world. All right, what do

536
00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:04.480
they say on the airplane, Make
sure you put your mask on first before

537
00:48:04.519 --> 00:48:09.760
helping others. So it's not selfish
to put your health first. So take

538
00:48:09.800 --> 00:48:16.079
that time. You need to get
these evaluations, all right. The evaluation

539
00:48:16.719 --> 00:48:22.239
will get you going. End this
year on a good note, on a

540
00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:28.480
healthy note. Don't wait till January
to take care of your health. Don't

541
00:48:28.480 --> 00:48:32.119
wait till Monday morning to take care
of your health. The time is now.

542
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:38.480
You have to take action. Don't
wait till things get bad. Remember,

543
00:48:38.519 --> 00:48:44.920
an ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure, so we have

544
00:48:45.079 --> 00:48:50.800
