Speaker 1: The following is a paid podcast. iHeartRadio's hosting of this
Speaker 1: podcast constitutes neither an endorsement of the products offered or
Speaker 1: the ideas expressed.
Speaker 2: Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
Speaker 2: is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
Speaker 2: brain power. We always want to improve function of our brain,
Speaker 2: but many people don't know how to. Modern medical society
Speaker 2: is based on medication, and you have a condition, and
Speaker 2: this medicine goes with that condition. So it's more like
Speaker 2: a flow chart, so they say okay, yes, no, yes, no, okay,
Speaker 2: this is your diagnosis and this medication goes with that diagnosis. However,
Speaker 2: the medication for Alzheimer's dementia, it doesn't work too well.
Speaker 2: So there's no medication that suddenly improves your memory. And
Speaker 2: that's what people want. They want a medication to improve
Speaker 2: their memory. They want some herb to they can take
Speaker 2: that will improve their memory, some magic supplement. You know
Speaker 2: in the commercials they have previleging and say oh this
Speaker 2: will improve your brain function. And they'll have research and
Speaker 2: say Omega threes help with your brain and glue the
Speaker 2: bione and X Y and Z and homeopathic and this
Speaker 2: has been research so that's all this stuff that claims
Speaker 2: to improve memory. However, if there was some magic pill
Speaker 2: that would improve your memory, everyone would just take it
Speaker 2: and no one would have memory problems. And Alzheimer's is
Speaker 2: the fast and growing disease on the planet. Okay, there's
Speaker 2: more people getting Alzheimer's after sixty five than ever before.
Speaker 2: One out of every three senior citizens has some sort
Speaker 2: of memory issue to Mancha or Alzheimer's, one out of
Speaker 2: every three. And guess what, it's getting even younger. Now
Speaker 2: I have teenage, twenty year olds, thirty year olds, forty
Speaker 2: year olds complaining that their memory is bad, and a
Speaker 2: lot of people blame COVID that their memory was much
Speaker 2: better before COVID. Now what happened after COVID. Number one,
Speaker 2: they closed the gyms, people stopped exercising. Number two, they
Speaker 2: were eating a lot of takeout and unhealthy foods, comfort foods.
Speaker 2: Number three, people started drinking more. Alcohol abuse increased. Number four,
Speaker 2: drug addiction increased, medication abuse increased. So all these things occurred,
Speaker 2: and that is not even mentioning the social isolation. Social
Speaker 2: isolation will make your brain worse. They also close the churches.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna yes, spirituals. You're not going to pray
Speaker 2: as much. So you're not seeing your friends and family.
Speaker 2: You're not going to church, you're not eating healthy food. Right,
Speaker 2: You're drinking more, doing more drugs. You're watching the news,
Speaker 2: which is more stressful than ever. What do you expect?
Speaker 2: How is your brain gonna get better when everything you're
Speaker 2: doing is bad. So when they said, okay, we're closing
Speaker 2: the gyms, I said, I'm exercising more. When they said
Speaker 2: I'm closing the churches and temples, I said, I'm going
Speaker 2: to pray more. When they said isolate, stay home, I
Speaker 2: went to visit my parents. And they might call me
Speaker 2: a grandma killer, but I call me a grandma savor. Right.
Speaker 2: How many people died without seeing their loved ones? Right?
Speaker 2: How many grandparents weren't able to see their kids or
Speaker 2: their grandkids before they died because of these COVID rules.
Speaker 2: How many people died because of the socialization. So socialization
Speaker 2: is very important. Healthy diet is very important, Stress reduction
Speaker 2: is very important, working out, sleep, not having alcohol, not
Speaker 2: eating sugar, not doing drugs. But those things all increased,
Speaker 2: and now Alzheimer's is worse than ever. Now, what are
Speaker 2: we gonna do about it, sit around and wait, no,
Speaker 2: do nothing. No, you better take action because the longer
Speaker 2: you wait, the worse your brain's gonna get. I have
Speaker 2: all these patients that you know, their worried because their
Speaker 2: grandparents had Alzheimer's or their parents had Alzheimer's, and they
Speaker 2: saw the miserable death. I saw my grandma daddy die
Speaker 2: from Alzheimer's, and it happened over forty years. It wasn't quick,
Speaker 2: it was very slow. And first it starts off, Uh wait,
Speaker 2: why did I come in the kitchen? Uh wait? What
Speaker 2: is that person's name? That's how it starts off. Where
Speaker 2: did I put my keys? Right? Those are basic, easy
Speaker 2: things that people just accept as they get older, but
Speaker 2: don't accept that start taking action. I see mild Alzheimer's,
Speaker 2: I see moderate, I see severe, I see it all.
Speaker 2: The mild is the easiest to reverse, the moderate's a
Speaker 2: little bit harder, and severe is the hardest. Okay, sometimes
Speaker 2: it's a win just to stop the progression. Alzheimer's, dementia,
Speaker 2: Parkinson's their progressive diseases, and what that means is that
Speaker 2: we're told they just get worse and worse over time.
Speaker 2: A progressive disease. However, that's if you don't do anything.
Speaker 2: If you take the proper action and do the proper intervention,
Speaker 2: your memory can get better as you get older, even
Speaker 2: if dementia already started. There's a test called the Mocha
Speaker 2: Test Moca. You can download it online for free, and
Speaker 2: you can just do it with one of your family
Speaker 2: members or your spouse. One person asks the questions and
Speaker 2: the other person answers, and then you give yourself a
Speaker 2: score at a thirty and you need twenty six out
Speaker 2: of thirty to be normal. If you're doing it with
Speaker 2: a partner, you do Mocha Version one and then the
Speaker 2: other person does Mocha Version two. All right, and then
Speaker 2: you can get a score. If you're less than twenty six,
Speaker 2: you better call my office immediately and do neurologic testing.
Speaker 2: Do not wait, Okay, do not wait. Take the test,
Speaker 2: get your score, and if it's below twenty six, you
Speaker 2: call my office immediate. Lee. An ounce of prevention is
Speaker 2: worth a pound of cure. Don't wait for it to
Speaker 2: go from mild to moderate to severe. Take action, so
Speaker 2: we could go from severe to moderate to mild to normal,
Speaker 2: just like we could get people from a wheelchair to
Speaker 2: a walker, to a cane to no aids. We can
Speaker 2: get you from severe dementia to moderate dementia, to mild
Speaker 2: dementia to know dementia. But you gotta do the work.
Speaker 2: And that might include changing your diet. That might include
Speaker 2: increasing physical exercise. That might include increasing social activity. That
Speaker 2: might include being more charitable with your time. That might
Speaker 2: include physical movement. That might include memory exercises, balance exercises,
Speaker 2: lights and smells and sounds. It might include how much
Speaker 2: water you take, how much sleep you get, stress reduction.
Speaker 2: It's work. As I said before, there's no magic pill
Speaker 2: that is just going to fix your brain and you're
Speaker 2: never gonna have memory problems. But if you do all
Speaker 2: the right things, your memory will start to improve as
Speaker 2: you get older. The most important thing you could do,
Speaker 2: and you could share this with your friends, family members,
Speaker 2: and loved ones, is novelty new things. There's nothing more
Speaker 2: important to improve your memory and brain function than novelty.
Speaker 2: Stop doing the same thing every week, Stop eating the
Speaker 2: same foods, stop hanging out with the same people, stop
Speaker 2: going to the same places, stop doing the same activities.
Speaker 2: Stop watching TV and YouTube and Facebook and Instagram and
Speaker 2: tiktoc and Netflix and Disney and you know Amazon Prime
Speaker 2: and Sports, you know stations and HBO and all this stuff.
Speaker 2: Turn it off, Start to unplug and do something new.
Speaker 2: Get off your butt and get out of the house.
Speaker 2: I'm sick of people waking up, drinking coffee, going to work,
Speaker 2: commuting home, eating a big dinner, watching Netflix, scrolling on Facebook,
Speaker 2: watch a few YouTube videos, and go to sleep and
Speaker 2: repeat every single day. You want dementia, that's what you
Speaker 2: do every day. Coffee, work, computer, eat TV, social media,
Speaker 2: the news, bedtime. That is the recipe for disaster. Okay,
Speaker 2: so your home should be for sleeping. Okay, outside of sleep,
Speaker 2: I want you out of the house. I want you socializing.
Speaker 2: I want you doing new activities, Meeting new people, going
Speaker 2: to new places, learning new things, joining new groups, adding
Speaker 2: new physical exercises. You have to use it or you
Speaker 2: lose it. Don't let your brain die off. Just like
Speaker 2: your muscles become weak if you don't exercise, your brain
Speaker 2: becomes weak. If you don't do new things. You have
Speaker 2: to do new things. You know, learn a new word
Speaker 2: in a different language, learn a new dance move, learn
Speaker 2: how to play an instrument, Join a club that teaches
Speaker 2: you how to garden, you know, learn how to make
Speaker 2: a fire, how to change a flat tire, how to
Speaker 2: put up a shelf, how to clean water, how to
Speaker 2: grow a fruit and vegetable garden. Learn how to do
Speaker 2: stuff that's productive. It's gonna help you. And if you
Speaker 2: can learn it outside while you're getting sun and oxygen,
Speaker 2: even better. Right. But the key to improving your memory,
Speaker 2: the most important factor is novelty. Don't be a creature
Speaker 2: of habit. You have to switch it up. You have
Speaker 2: to do new things. You have to challenge yourself. You
Speaker 2: gotta be uncomfortable. You got to think outside the box.
Speaker 2: You gotta be okay with failing and doing things wrong,
Speaker 2: because when you try new things, you'll fail. But failure
Speaker 2: is gonna get your brain stronger. And if your brain
Speaker 2: gets stronger, you're gonna function better, feel better, and live
Speaker 2: a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan. You're listening
Speaker 2: to boost your brain power more when we come back
Speaker 2: from the break.
Speaker 3: If you want to improve your brain function, help with memory, focus, sleep, digestion,
Speaker 3: energy depression, anxiety, dizziness, balance, vision, headaches, brain fog, weight loss,
Speaker 3: or simply want to maximize your human potential and prevent
Speaker 3: future diseases that this is the show for you. Don't
Speaker 3: misboost your brain power with doctor Eric Kaplan and you
Speaker 3: will learn natural, integrative and holistic approaches to modern day
Speaker 3: medical problems such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's stroke, autism, add concussion,
Speaker 3: autoimmune diseases, insomnia, fibromyalgia, vertigo, migraines, four posture pain, TBI,
Speaker 3: skin and digestive problems. Doctor Kaplan is most famous for
Speaker 3: getting to the root cause of a wide variety of
Speaker 3: brain and health conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional
Speaker 3: medicines and risky surgeries. To contact doctor Kaplin, you can
Speaker 3: call his team at two oh one two six one
Speaker 3: two one five zero or visit his website at kaplindc
Speaker 3: dot com.
Speaker 2: Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
Speaker 2: is Eric Caplan and you're listening to boost your brain power.
Speaker 2: The key to improving your memory is novelty. That's the
Speaker 2: number one most important thing. Number two most important thing
Speaker 2: is fuel delivery. Now we get fuel delivery from different sources.
Speaker 2: Number one the most important is the sunlight. Vitamin D,
Speaker 2: which is a hormone. The more vitamin D you have,
Speaker 2: the less likely you are to develop Alzheimer's that's been
Speaker 2: proven through neuroscience. The second part of fuel delivery is oxygen.
Speaker 2: Alzheimer's loves an acidic environment, which means less oxygen and
Speaker 2: more carbon. So you want get rid of the carbon dioxide,
Speaker 2: and you want to increase oxygen and start by going
Speaker 2: outside opening up a window right. Stop being inside all day.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna get the oxygen you need, so you
Speaker 2: gotta go outside. Do your breathing exercise. The best breathing
Speaker 2: exercise to maximize your oxygen intake is to inhale for
Speaker 2: four seconds, hold your breath for seven seconds, and exhale
Speaker 2: for eight seconds. We always want to exhale to last
Speaker 2: twice as long. If your exhale is twice as long,
Speaker 2: that means you get rid of the carbon dioxide. When
Speaker 2: you get rid of your carbon dioxide, then you're opening
Speaker 2: up more space in your lungs to let oxygen in.
Speaker 2: So you gotta get rid of the bad stuff, the
Speaker 2: nitrogen carbon dioxide, and then you got to increase your
Speaker 2: oxygen levels. Start breathing from your diaphragm. When you inhale,
Speaker 2: push your diaphragm down and out. When you exhale, your
Speaker 2: diaphragm should come in to squeeze out all the carbon dioxide. Also,
Speaker 2: don't use your accessory muscles for respiration, which include the
Speaker 2: neck and the shoulder. You shouldn't be breathing with the
Speaker 2: your shoulders and your neck. You should be breathing with
Speaker 2: your diaphragm. So practice right now, where you put your
Speaker 2: hands on your belly. Take a big inhale and you
Speaker 2: should feel your belly go down and out. Then you
Speaker 2: hold it for seven and then you slowly exhale for
Speaker 2: eight and the belly comes in in. Heal four seconds,
Speaker 2: hold it for seven seconds, exhale for eight. When you
Speaker 2: get really good, you just count slower. Keep the ratio
Speaker 2: at four, seven, eight, Just count slower. That's going to
Speaker 2: maximize your oxygen intake. Also, you can get oxygen producing plants.
Speaker 2: You can put them in your apartment, your house, your office.
Speaker 2: There's four plants that produce the most oxygen. The first
Speaker 2: is a snake plant, the second is a spider plant,
Speaker 2: the third is a money plant, and the fourth is
Speaker 2: alo vera plant. Put those plants together. The plants need
Speaker 2: socialization just like the humans do. Just like our brains
Speaker 2: will die off without human contact with social isolation. Plants
Speaker 2: also die much quicker if they're isolated, So don't isolate
Speaker 2: your plants. Don't put one plane in one room, another
Speaker 2: plant in another room. Put them all together and that's
Speaker 2: your air purification room. A snake plant, spider plant, money plant,
Speaker 2: and alo vera plant, those will all increase your oxygen
Speaker 2: levels inside your house. Outside your house, spends some time
Speaker 2: in the forest, in the trees, in the woods, in
Speaker 2: the jungle. That's where we get the most oxygen. One
Speaker 2: tree gives enough oxygen for five people, So how about
Speaker 2: you do one person with five trees. They're gonna be
Speaker 2: twenty five times more oxygen than the average human. So
Speaker 2: you have to go and do breathing exercises in the
Speaker 2: woods where there's lots of trees surrounding yourself, doing diaframatic
Speaker 2: breathing in a four to seven eight ratio. That is
Speaker 2: going to boost your brain power to function at the
Speaker 2: highest level. If you have bet memory or focus, you're
Speaker 2: literally not getting oxygen into your brain. So we need
Speaker 2: to increase oxygen so it could be delivered to the
Speaker 2: brain and utilized properly. Right, that's for oxygen. So you
Speaker 2: have the sunlight that gives us our vitamin D hormone
Speaker 2: you got. The oxygen increases our alkaline environment, so there's
Speaker 2: not a cidic. The other fuel delivery is water. You
Speaker 2: gotta drink more water. Supposed to drink half your body
Speaker 2: weight in ounces every single day. If you weigh one
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty pounds, you got to drink eighty ounces
Speaker 2: right every day. And if you want to get the
Speaker 2: water absorbed, put some salt in there, pink and Malayan salt,
Speaker 2: Celtic salt. Because what happens is if you just drink
Speaker 2: the regular bottled water or tap water that's not having
Speaker 2: the electrolytes, you end up just peeing it out, so
Speaker 2: you you know, end up getting drinking water. But then
Speaker 2: you just pee it out. Drink water, peet out, drink water,
Speaker 2: peeed out. Sound familiar. You're not absorbing. You don't have
Speaker 2: the salt in the water. Pink laand salt, Celtic salt.
Speaker 2: Just a pinch. Shouldn't be a lot where you taste
Speaker 2: the salt, but it should be at least a pinch
Speaker 2: so that you can put it into your cells. You
Speaker 2: don't want to pee out the water. You want the
Speaker 2: muscles to absorb it, the heart to absorb it, the
Speaker 2: brain to absorb it. Right, we need that to get absorbed.
Speaker 2: Oxygen is life. That's why they're always in outer space
Speaker 2: or looking for oxygen, right, And that's why you know
Speaker 2: when the astronauts go, they need the spacesuit for oxygen,
Speaker 2: or you go scuba diving, you need oxygen. We're all
Speaker 2: dead without oxygen. So why are we not breathing properly?
Speaker 2: Why are we polluting the air? Why are we always inside?
Speaker 2: You're not gonna be healthy without your oxygen. If you
Speaker 2: have a headache, it's a lack of oxygen into the brain.
Speaker 2: If you have dizziness, lack of oxygen into the brain.
Speaker 2: You got chest pain, lack of oxygen into the heart.
Speaker 2: You got stomach pain, lack of oxygen into the gut,
Speaker 2: you get menstrual craps. You're getting rid of all that oxygen.
Speaker 2: You don't have enough everything. Every pain you get a
Speaker 2: muscle pain, you're not getting oxygen to the muscle. That's
Speaker 2: why all these modalities are to get oxygen to the muscles. Right.
Speaker 2: If you do physical therapy, exercise increases oxygen to the muscles.
Speaker 2: Massage therapy increases oxygen to the muscles. Acupuncture increases oxygen
Speaker 2: to the muscles. Electrical stem tens unit increases oxygen to
Speaker 2: the cells. Everything is based on increasing oxygen to the cells.
Speaker 2: When they say put a hot pack on or hot
Speaker 2: water bottle, it's bringing oxygen to the cells. Oxygen is life.
Speaker 2: But you gotta go outside. You gotta get your diafromatic breathing.
Speaker 2: You gotta, you know, work on your posture. And then
Speaker 2: the water. You gotta make sure you put the salt
Speaker 2: in the water so it gets absorbed. Water and oxygen
Speaker 2: are life. Right. When the astronauts go out, they're looking
Speaker 2: for oxygen. They're looking for water, two most important things, right,
Speaker 2: But you gotta make sure it's healthy. Oxygen right, you
Speaker 2: go to China or New York City, the oxygen right.
Speaker 2: The air quality is bad. You're gonna be in hailing
Speaker 2: all this pollution when they had COVID and everything shut
Speaker 2: down for those you know, fifteen days to flatten the curve, right,
Speaker 2: so the whole world shut down. You remember, the air
Speaker 2: started cleaning in China, La. The pollution went away Venice,
Speaker 2: the canals were all clean. The dolphins started coming back,
Speaker 2: so the air was getting clean. The water was getting clean.
Speaker 2: Everything started to heal in just fifteen days. We should
Speaker 2: literally do every year, pick two weeks and the whole
Speaker 2: world shuts down. Nobody works, nobody drives, nobody does anything
Speaker 2: major for two weeks, so we can cleanse the earth
Speaker 2: a spring cleaning. Let's call it all right. So I
Speaker 2: don't know who the next president is gonna be, but
Speaker 2: let's write them a letter. Everyone in the world should
Speaker 2: take off two weeks without any work, without any driving.
Speaker 2: Everything will be closed down. And you want to work out,
Speaker 2: you do your own push ups and sit ups and
Speaker 2: pull ups. You want to go to church, you gotta
Speaker 2: make your own prayer group. Right. It can be done right,
Speaker 2: but you have to do it right. You got to
Speaker 2: tell the politicians, hey, we want those two weeks off.
Speaker 2: We need that cleanse. The whole world needs it. It's
Speaker 2: going too fast. We need to slow down, slow it down.
Speaker 2: Most people are way too fast. That's why coffee is
Speaker 2: the worst thing. You know. Ninety percent of people are
Speaker 2: drinking coffee every morning, and ninety percent of people are anxious.
Speaker 2: If you're anxious, stop drinking coffee. If you have insomnia,
Speaker 2: stop drinking coffee. If you have digestive problems. Stop drinking coffee,
Speaker 2: all right, that's gonna make everything worse. And caffeine, any caffeine,
Speaker 2: and soda in tea, in energy drinks. You want to
Speaker 2: stay away from the stimulants. Other stimulants include food dyes, preservatives,
Speaker 2: natural flavors. So you gotta be very very careful when
Speaker 2: reading the labels of the food that you're eating. In fact,
Speaker 2: if you're eating food with labels, you probably shouldn't be
Speaker 2: eating it because it's in a box and a can
Speaker 2: or a bag. All the good food doesn't have any ingredients.
Speaker 2: It's one ingredient. Now, if you want to make your own,
Speaker 2: you know, whatever, soup or something, because you buy your
Speaker 2: own celery, and you buy your cabbage, and you buy
Speaker 2: your peppers and tomatoes and your onions and your garlic
Speaker 2: and your broccoli and your colliflower, and you buy everything individually,
Speaker 2: but then put it all in a soup so it
Speaker 2: has multiple ingredients. That's fine. And if you want to
Speaker 2: make your own mayonnaise and you get organic eggs and
Speaker 2: you get all of the oil on you and you
Speaker 2: mix it together, fine because you're making it yourself. But
Speaker 2: don't buy Hellman's mayonnaise. Don't buy anything on a commercial.

Speaker 2: Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
Speaker 2: is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your
Speaker 2: brain power. Now we're talking about holistic, natural, and integrative
Speaker 2: ways to improve your memory. The first thing is novelty,
Speaker 2: doing new things doing stuff you've never done before. I
Speaker 2: don't care if you just, you know, eat your food
Speaker 2: with chopsticks with your left hand. Okay, great, never done
Speaker 2: it before. I don't care. If you try and play
Speaker 2: pickleball for the first time. Great, never done it before.
Speaker 2: Take a tangle lesson, learn a few words in Japanese.
Speaker 2: Just do something new. Take off your shoe and walk
Speaker 2: backwards wearing only one shoe. Sure you've never done that before.
Speaker 2: That's new. It doesn't have to be something major. Go
Speaker 2: to a new place, meet a new person, cook a
Speaker 2: new meal, do something different. Challenge yourself and say, oh,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna, you know, buy this desk from Ikea and
Speaker 2: instead of paying someone to put it together, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: do it myself. Right, Do something that's out of your
Speaker 2: comfort zone. Right, be a person who takes challenges who's uncomfortable.
Speaker 2: Don't be comfortable. Your brain dies off with comfort when
Speaker 2: you're uncomfortable. When you challenge yourself, that's when the brain
Speaker 2: gets stronger. Okay. Novelty number two was fuel delivery. Drinking
Speaker 2: half your body weight of water in ounces, getting your
Speaker 2: sunlight twenty minutes day, doing your breathing exercises, getting the oxygen. Now,
Speaker 2: the other way of getting your fool delivery is your food.
Speaker 2: You gotta eat healthy food. Now. The key to eating
Speaker 2: all your healthy food and getting all your nutrients is
Speaker 2: covering each color of the rainbow. Find something that's red.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's strawberries, orange, Maybe it's carrots yellow. Maybe it's
Speaker 2: squash green. Maybe it's spinach blue. Maybe it's blueberries, purple,
Speaker 2: Maybe purple leaf, lettuce, or blackberries, or plums, or onions,
Speaker 2: purple onions, purple grapes. Right, there's so many different foods
Speaker 2: for each color of the rainbow. But every day, make
Speaker 2: sure you eat each color of the rainbow. That's your
Speaker 2: fuel delivery. Stay away from the white foods. Those are
Speaker 2: not healthy. Sugar, flour, bread, rice, potatoes, oatmeal, cereal, pasta,
Speaker 2: all those carbs, right, the sodas, all the sugar, all
Speaker 2: the crackers and bread and muffins and cookies and cakes,
Speaker 2: and all that white food sugar and flour and milk.
Speaker 2: Get rid of the white foods. No more white foods
Speaker 2: and increase all your colors. Not only will your brain
Speaker 2: function better, you'll feel better, your inflammation will go down,
Speaker 2: you'll lose those extra pounds you're trying to lose your brain.
Speaker 2: Fog will be less, your energy will improve. You gotta
Speaker 2: get all the fuel delivery, all the colors of the rainbow,
Speaker 2: get your oxygen, get your some light, drink your water.
Speaker 2: That's your fuel delivery, all right. So number one is novelty,
Speaker 2: number two is fuel delivery, and number three is brain exercises.
Speaker 2: You gotta challenge your brain. Right, a good brain exercise.
Speaker 2: You guys can try this at home. Take your left leg,
Speaker 2: draw clockwise circles and keep it going next speed clockwise
Speaker 2: to the right, and do it over and over and
Speaker 2: over and without stopping. I want you to do the
Speaker 2: number six. Draw a big number six with your left hand.
Speaker 2: At the same time that you're drawing the big circle
Speaker 2: with your left leg, try and keep your legs in
Speaker 2: your arms completely straight, so it's clockwise circles with your
Speaker 2: left leg, number six with your left hand at the
Speaker 2: same time. And you might not even realize it, but
Speaker 2: a lot of times when you're doing the six, you
Speaker 2: automatically reverse the leg. So a lot of people say, oh,
Speaker 2: look I'm doing it. Say no, you reversed it. You're
Speaker 2: not doing it anymore. Okay, So if you really want
Speaker 2: to improve your memory. You got to challenge your brain.
Speaker 2: So remember people's phone numbers. Don't just put it down
Speaker 2: in your contact list. Remember addresses, don't just put it
Speaker 2: in your GPS. Remember how to remember your grocery list.
Speaker 2: Don't just look at the words that are written. Memorize it.
Speaker 2: Make sure you're the person that remember everybody's name. You
Speaker 2: want to remember names, You got to do some sort
Speaker 2: of emotional connection, right, You got to do an emotional connection,
Speaker 2: some story that's going to remind you of this person's name.
Speaker 2: Your memory is best when there's an emotional connection, right. So,
Speaker 2: whoever you meet, you know, just think of someone really
Speaker 2: important to you that's got that same name or whatever.
Speaker 2: It is your favorite musical artist or your favorite actor
Speaker 2: or baseball play or some connection. You know, your favorite
Speaker 2: aunt growing up it was her middle name, or you know,
Speaker 2: something that is going to remind you of that name,
Speaker 2: some famous song. You know, it could be anything. So
Speaker 2: you know, it's like, I met this girl Michelle the
Speaker 2: other day and I was just thinking of the Beatles
Speaker 2: song Michelle, and then so I love that song growing up,
Speaker 2: but played over and over and over again. So now
Speaker 2: every time I see her face, boom that music comes
Speaker 2: up and I know that's her name, rather than just saying, okay, Michelle,
Speaker 2: remember Michelle, Michelle, Michelle Michelle. Nope, I need an emotional connection,
Speaker 2: then I'm gonna remember it emotional story that's associated with that. Hey,
Speaker 2: there's no stronger memory than emotion. That's why a lot
Speaker 2: of people you know remember you know, growing up the
Speaker 2: street they lived on, there, friends names, but they can't
Speaker 2: remember the person they met last week because they're not
Speaker 2: emotionally connected to them yet. Or you could remember the
Speaker 2: smell of a flower that your mom used to garden
Speaker 2: with growing up, but you smell something, Oh, I can't
Speaker 2: tell what that is. You know, if there's an emotional connection,
Speaker 2: it's gonna work better. So use that to your advantage.
Speaker 2: All right, do you want to improve your memory, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna teach you how to do that, But do not
Speaker 2: come to me if you want drugs, you want medication
Speaker 2: or herbs or supplements that are gonna fix you. That's
Speaker 2: not the type of doctor I am. I'm a functional neurologist. Right.
Speaker 2: If you have anxiety, I'm not gonna give you an
Speaker 2: anti anxiety pill. That's not what a functional neurologist does.
Speaker 2: We figure out where the anxiety is coming from. Do
Speaker 2: you have too much of your sympathetic nervous system going on.
Speaker 2: Do you have too much cortisol being stimulated. Do you
Speaker 2: have a hyper thyroid condition. Do you have inflammation in
Speaker 2: your intestines? Do you have heavy metal poisoning? Do you
Speaker 2: have an issue with your heart? Do you have an
Speaker 2: issue with post traumatic stress syndrome. We see a lot
Speaker 2: of that. People who were mugged or raped, or they
Speaker 2: went to war with or they got shot at, or
Speaker 2: they got beat up by their mom or dad, or
Speaker 2: they got you know, molested as a little kid. So
Speaker 2: there's all different causes, but we got to figure out
Speaker 2: what the root caused. There's always a reason. The number
Speaker 2: one cause of anxiety is a mother being stressed when
Speaker 2: she's pregnant. That's literally the number one cause of anxiety.
Speaker 2: If the mom is stressed when she's pregnant, then the
Speaker 2: baby is gonna be born in stress from day one.
Speaker 2: So if you're pregnant or you're trying to get pregnant,
Speaker 2: you better start working on stress reduction. If you're the
Speaker 2: man and your wife is pregnant, you do anything to
Speaker 2: reduce her stress levels. If you're the female and you
Speaker 2: are pregnant, you better chill out. You better stop worrying
Speaker 2: so much. You better start doing some breathing exercises, some meditation, exercise,
Speaker 2: practice mindfulness, get your fuel delivery, eat all the colors
Speaker 2: of the rainbow, get some sunline, get some oxygen, drink
Speaker 2: your water. Obviously, if you're pregnant, do not drink alcohol.
Speaker 2: Don't drink coffee. If you're drinking coffee when you're pregnant,
Speaker 2: then the kid's gonna be more anxious and more stressed.
Speaker 2: Stay away from caffeine when you're pregnant. Stay away from
Speaker 2: alcohol when you're pregnant. If you have alcohol, they're gonna
Speaker 2: become depressed, their low motivation. There's nothing more important for
Speaker 2: your brain development than how your mother is when she's
Speaker 2: pregnant with you. And when I had my kids, you know,
Speaker 2: I said, for the first month, before we even started trying, Okay,
Speaker 2: let's reduce our stress levels. Let's eat super healthy. It's exercise.
Speaker 2: I wanted to give the healthiest sperm possible, and I
Speaker 2: wanted my wife to give the healthiest egg possible, so
Speaker 2: that our kids are the healthiest possible. And my kids
Speaker 2: never get sick. They never go to the doctor, they
Speaker 2: never take any medicine. They are awesome. Their life is great.
Speaker 2: They don't suffer from all these conditions that everyone else does,
Speaker 2: whether it's allergies or add ADHD, autism, dyslexia, Aspergers, turetts,
Speaker 2: autoimmune disease, pain, troubles with focus, getting distracted easily, depression, anxiety.
Speaker 2: We don't need that stuff. None of that stuff is normal.
Speaker 2: Just because it's common doesn't mean it's normal. So I'm
Speaker 2: teaching you how to be the one percent, not the
Speaker 2: ninety nine percent. So that way, if you're the one percent,
Speaker 2: you'll function better, feel better, and live a better life.
Speaker 2: This is doctor Eric Kaplan. You're listening to boost your
Speaker 2: brain power.
Speaker 3: If you want to improve your brain function, help with memory, focus, sleep, digestion, energy, depression, anxiety, dizziness, balance, vision, headaches,
Speaker 3: brain fog, weight loss, or simply want to maximize your
Speaker 3: human potential and prevent future diseases. That this is the
Speaker 3: show for you. Don't mis boost your brain power with
Speaker 3: doctor Eric Kaplan and you will learn natural, integrative, and
Speaker 3: holistic approaches to modern day medical problems such as Alzheimer's,
Speaker 3: Parkinson's stroke, autism, add concussion, autoimmune diseases, insomnia, fibromyalgia, vertigo, migraines,
Speaker 3: four posture pain, TBI, skin and digestive problems. Doctor Kaplan
Speaker 3: is most famous for getting to the root cause of
Speaker 3: a wide variety of brain and health conditions, rather than
Speaker 3: treating symptoms with traditional medicines and risky surgeries. To contact
Speaker 3: the Doctor Kamplin, you can call his team at two
Speaker 3: O one two six one two one five zero or
Speaker 3: visit his website at kaplindc dot com.
Speaker 2: Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
Speaker 2: is doctor Eric Caplan. You're listening to boost to brain
Speaker 2: power now to improve your memory and focus. We need
Speaker 2: novelty doing new things. We need fuel delivery, which is sunlight,
Speaker 2: minamin d oxygen, goold breathing exercises, water half your body
Speaker 2: weight in ounces. Make sure you drink on an empty
Speaker 2: stomach and use pink cameley and salt just a pinch
Speaker 2: to get your electrolytes okay. And food which is eating
Speaker 2: all the colors of the rainbow and avoiding the white feud.
Speaker 2: That's the fuel delivery. Then the third thing is activation.
Speaker 2: You gotta challenge your brain. You got to do things
Speaker 2: a little bit harder. Don't make life easier and make
Speaker 2: it harder. Okay, so you got to challenge your brain.
Speaker 2: Challenge your memory. Don't use Google and YouTube so much.
Speaker 2: Use your brain. See if you could figure it out
Speaker 2: on your own. It might take a little bit longer,
Speaker 2: it might be a little bit more inconvenient. You might
Speaker 2: fail a few more times, but at least you're using
Speaker 2: your brain. When you use your brain, you create more connections.
Speaker 2: The more connections in your brain, the better. That's what
Speaker 2: makes your brain more powerful. It's not the amount of
Speaker 2: brain cells, it's the amount of synapses or connections between
Speaker 2: the brain cells. When they analyze Albert Einstein's brain, they
Speaker 2: found out he had less neurons than the average human,
Speaker 2: but he had more connections, more synapses, more bridges. Right,
Speaker 2: you need more connections. The more connections you have, the
Speaker 2: stronger your brain is. So that if you do get
Speaker 2: exposed to something bad, whether it's lime disease, mold, COVID nineteen,
Speaker 2: heavy metal poisonings, concussion, head trauma, stroke, autoimmune disease, when
Speaker 2: you do get exposed, if your brain is more connections,
Speaker 2: then it could be more resilient. Then it can handle
Speaker 2: the virus or the bacteria, or the worm, or the impact.
Speaker 2: Because your brain's always going to be challenged. Right, There's
Speaker 2: gonna be times where you don't sleep, and you want
Speaker 2: your brain so strong that it could still function on
Speaker 2: no sleep. There might be times you drink alcohol. Well,
Speaker 2: you need your brain so strong that even if you
Speaker 2: drink alcohol, you're not gonna fall over. You're not gonna crash,
Speaker 2: You're not gonna trip and hit your head. You're not
Speaker 2: gonna slur your words. You're not gonna say stupid things
Speaker 2: or make stupid phone calls or get into a fite.
Speaker 2: You need your brain so strong. If you get bit
Speaker 2: by a tick, you don't get lime disease. Everybody gets
Speaker 2: exposed to bacteria, everybody gets exposed to viruses. Right, everybody
Speaker 2: got COVID nineteen. Some people got sick, some people didn't.
Speaker 2: Why do you think that is? It's because their immune
Speaker 2: systems different, their brain's different, their oxygen levels are different.
Speaker 2: Everybody's different. The ones that got COVID the worst were
Speaker 2: the ones who were obese, had diabetes, heart disease, had pneumonia,
Speaker 2: had the flu, were stressed out, didn't sleep well the
Speaker 2: night before. There's always another reason. And the people that
Speaker 2: got exposed them were fine, had a strong immune system,
Speaker 2: good oxygen, good blood flow, nutrition, less inflammation, alkaline environment,
Speaker 2: no acidic, no sugar, no coffee, no alcohol. Those are
Speaker 2: the people that did the best. You want to do
Speaker 2: well when you're exposed to a virus. You've gotta boost
Speaker 2: your immune system. You gotta stay strong, you gotta be resilient.
Speaker 2: But it's all about creating good habits every day. You
Speaker 2: gotta exercise every day. You gotta eat healthy every day.
Speaker 2: You gotta drink your water every day. You gotta get
Speaker 2: good sleep. You gotta do these things every day. Right
Speaker 2: in your gratitude journal, give to others, reduce your stress levels,
Speaker 2: do some breathing, do some meditation, read a little bit
Speaker 2: in your book, get some education, challenge your brain. It
Speaker 2: doesn't have to be a lot. You could do everything
Speaker 2: I just said in less than an hour. You could
Speaker 2: do a thirty second meditation. You could do a thirty
Speaker 2: second breathing exercise. You can do a thirty second sprint
Speaker 2: to the end of the block. It doesn't have to
Speaker 2: be long hours. You could do thirty seconds of reading
Speaker 2: one page of the book, thirty seconds a writing two
Speaker 2: things you're grateful for. You could do it all in
Speaker 2: ten minutes if you really want, right, but make that
Speaker 2: time prioritize that you have more time. They can ever
Speaker 2: imagine if you work forty hours a week and you
Speaker 2: sleep eight hours a night, you have over seventy hours
Speaker 2: of freedom to do whatever you want. And that's your
Speaker 2: work is done and your sleep is done. It's all
Speaker 2: free time, over seventy hours every week. But what are
Speaker 2: you doing with those seventy hours? Are you choosing to exercise?
Speaker 2: Are you choosing to eat home cooked meals? Are you
Speaker 2: choosing to be more spiritual? Are you choosing to volunteer
Speaker 2: and help with charities. Are you choosing to do your
Speaker 2: breathing exercise, or you're reading and get education. What are
Speaker 2: you choosing to do with your time? Is it scrolling
Speaker 2: through Facebook, watching Netflix, watching the news? Do something more productive,
Speaker 2: Do something that's going to help society. You know, watching
Speaker 2: who's going to be the next president doesn't help you,
Speaker 2: doesn't make you a better person, It doesn't help society.
Speaker 2: It just makes you more stressed. Most people, you know,
Speaker 2: they have their decision made. It doesn't matter. So if
Speaker 2: you want to know about politics, read the platforms. Don't
Speaker 2: watch the news. The news is just biased and they're
Speaker 2: going to skew their stories the way they want you
Speaker 2: to believe. So don't watch the news. That's not the truth. Right,
Speaker 2: turn off, unplug, Right, do your own research. Don't listen
Speaker 2: to other people's opinions to make your opinion. Yeah, to
Speaker 2: improve your memory. Not only do you want to unplug
Speaker 2: and turn off your TV and your computer, but what
Speaker 2: you do want to do is reconnect with friends and
Speaker 2: family members, create better relationships. Remember we were talking about
Speaker 2: before how social isolation is the worst thing for the brain.
Speaker 2: That's why people in jail who have solitary confinement is
Speaker 2: the worst punishment. They'd rather sleep next to a murderer
Speaker 2: than be in solitary confinement. It's the worst punishment you
Speaker 2: can have. Social isolation will kill your brain. So start
Speaker 2: being more social. Start talking to people and not over
Speaker 2: social media. That is not social. Commenting on somebody's post
Speaker 2: is not being social. Texting somebody is not being social.
Speaker 2: You know, a phone call that's better, but FaceTime even better.
Speaker 2: But no, be in person. We want we're three dimensionals.
Speaker 2: We have to see three dimensions. We got to hear
Speaker 2: their voice. We gotta hug that or shake their hands
Speaker 2: or give them a kiss. You know you have human
Speaker 2: touch is important, that's very important. It releases certain hormones, oxytocin, serotonin, dopamine.
Speaker 2: We need human touch, We need human interaction, all right.
Speaker 2: And we have lots of people that are depressed or
Speaker 2: anxious because they don't have human interaction. Now, how do
Speaker 2: you know what's going on in your brain? Are you depressed?
Speaker 2: Are you anxious? Is your memory bed? Is your focus bed?
Speaker 2: Do you have low dopamine? Do you have low A
Speaker 2: CEO colin these neurotransmitters. Do you have intestinal inflammation? Do
Speaker 2: you have a thyroid problem? You need to do. It's
Speaker 2: called a qEEG brain mapping. It discovers all of that stuff.
Speaker 2: It tells you if you have sleep deprivation, insomnia, It
Speaker 2: tells you do you have trouble with motivation, organization, planning, vision, hearing,
Speaker 2: heavy metal exposure, viral exposure, concussions, Is there cortisol all off?
Speaker 2: This qEEG brain mapping has no radiation. You don't have
Speaker 2: to lie down in some claustrophobic small tube. You don't
Speaker 2: have to take any contrast fluid. There's no side effects.
Speaker 2: There's no risk. It only takes ten to twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: It's super informative. It tells us all those things that
Speaker 2: are wrong with the brain by measuring your alpha brainwaves
Speaker 2: and your beta brainwaves, and your theta and your delta,
Speaker 2: and tells us which areas of the brain are functioning
Speaker 2: well and which area the brains are abnormal. I love
Speaker 2: this qEEG brain mapping, and we're gonna give a gift
Speaker 2: to all my listeners. To the first seven people to call,
Speaker 2: text or email, you could get this qEEG brain mapping.
Speaker 2: Instead of paying the normal five hundred dollars fee, you
Speaker 2: only have to pay twenty one dollars. It's sort of
Speaker 2: a get acquainted visit where we could do this test.
Speaker 2: I can tell you what's wrong. You don't have to
Speaker 2: follow my suggestions at all. I'm gonna give you holistic
Speaker 2: solutions without any drugs or any medication or any surgeries,
Speaker 2: so we get to the root cause of the problem
Speaker 2: rather than treating the symptoms. But it's up to you.
Speaker 2: There's no obligation. That's why we make it so affordable.
Speaker 2: It's only twenty one dollars. There's no obligation. If you
Speaker 2: want to do my suggestions. Great. If you don't, no
Speaker 2: hard feelings, you never have to come back. There's no obligations,
Speaker 2: but you do have to be one of the first
Speaker 2: seven people to call, text or email to get it
Speaker 2: for only twenty one dollars. The number is six four
Speaker 2: six two two one six seven three eight or email
Speaker 2: info at Kaplinbrain and Body dot com. Now there's another
Speaker 2: good test called a VNG. A VNG is where you
Speaker 2: wear these goggles and they have infrared cameras that measure
Speaker 2: your eye movements as you follow this laser red light,
Speaker 2: and it goes fast and slow and up and down,
Speaker 2: it goes back and forth, and there's dark and light,
Speaker 2: and there's with a head turn and eyes closed and
Speaker 2: all these different things. So what happens is that you
Speaker 2: will actually watch this red dot, and depending on where
Speaker 2: the red dot goes, it will tell us which areas
Speaker 2: of the brain are overfiring and which area this brain
Speaker 2: are underfine. And if they're overfined, that means you're gonna
Speaker 2: have anxiety or heart palpitations, or your mind's racing a
Speaker 2: million miles per hour, you have insomnia, you can't think,
Speaker 2: or you're always distracted, or you always worried or panic.
Speaker 2: That means your brain's overactive. Right. The V and G
Speaker 2: will let us know if that's the case. Some people,
Speaker 2: their brain's underactive. These people are gonna have low motivation,
Speaker 2: bad memory, depression, laziness, fatigue, constipation, everything's slow. Right. The
Speaker 2: V and G will pick up if everything's slow or underactive.
Speaker 2: And it's also going to tell us the difference between
Speaker 2: the right side and the left side, which is amazing
Speaker 2: because that really helps me to focus my therapy. So
Speaker 2: because I might only want to stimulate the right side
Speaker 2: but bring down the left side. The VNG is the
Speaker 2: best machine to pick up the imbalances or the disconnect
Speaker 2: between the left and the right brain, which areas are
Speaker 2: overactive and which areas are underactive, and people have these disconnects.
Speaker 2: That's a lot of like autism and add and ADHD,
Speaker 2: and people with reading difficulties and dyslexia, and people with
Speaker 2: movement disorders like tourettes and ticks and eye twitches and
Speaker 2: so uh. The VNG is great for this. That's also
Speaker 2: normally five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people
Speaker 2: to call, text or email, you can also get the
Speaker 2: BNG instead of paying five hundred dollars for only twenty
Speaker 2: one dollars, call text or email six four six two
Speaker 2: two one six seven three eight or email info at
Speaker 2: Kaplinbraininbody dot com. Another test we're going to offer is
Speaker 2: the one on one with me, and what that means
Speaker 2: is where we check your blood work, We check your
Speaker 2: v G or q EEG brain mapping. We're also going
Speaker 2: to check out your posture, your alignment, your memory, your heart,
Speaker 2: your lungs, your gut. It's a very thorough physical evaluation.
Speaker 2: We check out your oxygen levels, your balance, your gait,
Speaker 2: your range of motion, your muscle strength. Normally five hundred
Speaker 2: dollars for one on one with me, but for the
Speaker 2: first seven people to call, text or email you can
Speaker 2: also get a one on one with me. Instead of
Speaker 2: paying the normal five hundred dollars, you could get it
Speaker 2: for only twenty one dollars again six four six two
Speaker 2: two one six seven three eight. And the last offer
