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. This month is Health and Wellness Month. What
Speaker 2: is health and wellness? What does that mean? In my opinion,
Speaker 2: it's all about prevention. An ounce of prevention is worth
Speaker 2: a pound of cure. The modern medical model is all
Speaker 2: about treating symptoms. Right, So you have uh sleep, sleeping problems,
Speaker 2: take a sleeping pill, take this ambient. If you have
Speaker 2: you know, anxiety, take this pill. Take a xanax. You
Speaker 2: have diabetes, take me foreman. You got high cholesterol, take
Speaker 2: a lipotoire. Right, So there's a draw ug that goes
Speaker 2: with the diagnosis you have. Add here's your adderall, here's
Speaker 2: your riddlin. You got depression, here's your lexipro. So it's
Speaker 2: a pretty easy game when all you gotta do is
Speaker 2: give a pill for each condition. But the easy way
Speaker 2: isn't the right way. The hard way is the right way.
Speaker 2: The hard way is getting to the root cause of
Speaker 2: the problem and changing your lifestyle or your habits, or
Speaker 2: working on your weak links. If you get to the
Speaker 2: root cause of the problem, stop what's aggravating you, take
Speaker 2: care of any damaged areas. Then you don't need to
Speaker 2: take pills, you don't need to see doctors, you don't
Speaker 2: need to do all these tests. That is health and wellness.
Speaker 2: They should not be calling you know, uh, insurance healthcare.
Speaker 2: That's that's it care. That's when you're sick. Healthcare is
Speaker 2: focusing on the stuff they don't tell you about. But
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you about it. And there's seven
Speaker 2: important factors that are going to improve your brain, improve
Speaker 2: your body to prevent future problems such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, obesity, dementia, Alzheimer's,
Speaker 2: weak immune system, allergies, add low motivation, fatigue. We don't
Speaker 2: want to treat these problems by covering up the symptoms.
Speaker 2: If you have if you're tired in the morning, what
Speaker 2: do people do to cover up their symptoms? Drink a
Speaker 2: cup of coffee? Is that really fixing the root cause? Yes,
Speaker 2: it's giving you little burst of energy, But is that
Speaker 2: real energy? No, it's fake. Right. If you have trouble sleeping,
Speaker 2: what do people do they might take a melatonin that's
Speaker 2: not good. Even if it helps you sleep, You're actually
Speaker 2: not getting to the root cause of the problem. True
Speaker 2: health and wellness is changing your bad habits improving it
Speaker 2: on your own. So you don't have symptoms to cover
Speaker 2: up with a pill or an herb or a supplement
Speaker 2: or medicine or some injection or some iv Those are
Speaker 2: just covering up symptoms. Don't be in the medical mindset.
Speaker 2: Don't take a pill or an herb or homeopathic remedy
Speaker 2: to cover up a symptom. If you have low energy
Speaker 2: in the morning, you got to figure out why do
Speaker 2: you have low energy in the morning. Maybe you're not
Speaker 2: sleeping well at night. That's the biggest cause, right, So
Speaker 2: what do you have to do to improve your sleep?
Speaker 2: Maybe you have to walk outside during sunrise and sunset
Speaker 2: so you see the sun coming up and coming down
Speaker 2: and get in a good circadium rhythm. So if you
Speaker 2: have difficulty with sleep, that's the first thing I would do.
Speaker 2: Ten minutes every morning you walk outside during sunrise. Outside,
Speaker 2: don't look out the window. You have to go outside
Speaker 2: for ten minutes if it's sunny, and if it's cloudy,
Speaker 2: twenty minutes. Now you have to do the opposite ten
Speaker 2: minutes during sunset and relax your brain say okay, good,
Speaker 2: Now I could chill out and get some good sleep.
Speaker 2: So you have to do the work. You got to
Speaker 2: get a root cause of the problem. May you have
Speaker 2: low energy in the morning, not necessarily because you're a
Speaker 2: bad sleeper, but you have poor digestion and you didn't
Speaker 2: break down the food that you ate yesterday to produce
Speaker 2: energy for you. Or maybe you ate too late at
Speaker 2: night and then you used up energy breaking down the
Speaker 2: food while you're sleeping. You should only eat four hours
Speaker 2: before bedtime. Don't eat after four hours before bedtime. Then
Speaker 2: your food has to digest and it's gonna drain. You
Speaker 2: have energy, and you might wake up fatigued. It could
Speaker 2: be sleep, could be poor digestion, could be eating too
Speaker 2: late at night. Your cortisol levels could be off. So
Speaker 2: we want cortisol high in the morning and low at night.
Speaker 2: If your cortisol is high at night, when you wake
Speaker 2: up in the morning, you're gonna have low energy. Now,
Speaker 2: what's the cause of high cortisol at night? Electronics? So
Speaker 2: if you're watching TV before bed, you're scrolling on your
Speaker 2: phone before bed, you're on your iPad before bed, you're
Speaker 2: on the computer, you're on social media, any smart device
Speaker 2: amidst a blue light. Whi's going to increase cortisol, which
Speaker 2: is the stress hormone, and that's going to prevent you
Speaker 2: from re energizing at night. It's when we fill up
Speaker 2: our tank. But if you're not re energizing at night,
Speaker 2: you're not gonna wake up ready to go in the morning.
Speaker 2: So again, you gotta get to the root cause of
Speaker 2: the problem. That's health and wellness. All right, What if
Speaker 2: you have headaches. We see a lot of patients with headaches.
Speaker 2: But what does the medical doctor do. Just give you
Speaker 2: a headache medication. Here's your etcrin, here's your migrate mads,
Speaker 2: take an ass brain call me in the morning. Nope,
Speaker 2: don't do it. Those medications are just covering up the symptoms.
Speaker 2: You gotta get to the root cause. Could be a
Speaker 2: tension headache where you have this band around your head,
Speaker 2: and you might need to decrease your overactive sympathetic nervous
Speaker 2: system which is increasing your blood pressure, which is creating
Speaker 2: more tension in your head. Get a band around your head.
Speaker 2: Could be a stress headache, so you're gonna have a
Speaker 2: tention headache, or you gonna have a stress headache. Stress
Speaker 2: headache so when your muscles are too tight and they're
Speaker 2: pulling on the back of your head, you you feel
Speaker 2: this achy pain in the back of your head. That's
Speaker 2: a stress headache. For that, we have to do what
Speaker 2: it's called active release technique, will remove certain muscles and
Speaker 2: positions of the joints to dig into the fibers to
Speaker 2: break them up so they're not stressed out and pulling
Speaker 2: on your head as much. It's totally different type of
Speaker 2: treatment than a tention headache. Well, we gotta reduce the
Speaker 2: tension and the pressure by working on your power sympathetic
Speaker 2: nervous system, so you can have a tension headache. You
Speaker 2: gonna have a stress headache, you have a migraine headache.
Speaker 2: Migraine headache is that sharp pain behind your eye, light sensitivity, nausea,
Speaker 2: turn off the lights, you're out for a day, that's
Speaker 2: a migraine migraine headache. We have this great technique, insulfration technique.
Speaker 2: There's only about fifty people in the whole world that
Speaker 2: do it, where we have this instrument that pumps air
Speaker 2: into your ear to get rid of migraine on the spot. Now,
Speaker 2: we always want to, you know, work on the oxygen
Speaker 2: when we're worried about migraine headaches. Migraine headaches are lack
Speaker 2: of oxygen and blood flow into the head. So then
Speaker 2: we gotta get to the root cause. We gotta focus
Speaker 2: on getting blood flow and oxygen into the head. That's
Speaker 2: for migraine. Cluster headaches. Those are bad too that you
Speaker 2: might get it for weeks in a row. Migraine is
Speaker 2: usually only like a day. Cluster headaches you could go
Speaker 2: for a week, two week, three weeks straight with a headache.
Speaker 2: Those are really bad. Usually the root cause of that
Speaker 2: is something that you're putting in your body. Could be
Speaker 2: cigre those cause cluster headaches, or coffee or alcohol. You know,
Speaker 2: it's usually something bad. Sometimes it's medication. So what we
Speaker 2: want to do is work on the root costs. You
Speaker 2: might have to quit smoking, you might have to quit coffee,
Speaker 2: you might have to quit drinking, you might have to
Speaker 2: quit sugar. So that is when it causes the root
Speaker 2: cause of the problem, that's a cluster headache. You want
Speaker 2: to get to the root cause you got to stop
Speaker 2: the bad habits. Sometimes it's preservative sometimes it's bad oils.
Speaker 2: I had a patient that I helped with cluster headaches
Speaker 2: a month ago, and we had to get rid of
Speaker 2: all the bad oils in his diet. That's what it took.
Speaker 2: So it's not always cigarettes or alcohol or coffee or
Speaker 2: you know, sugar. It's actually sometimes oils. Sometimes it's artificial
Speaker 2: sweeteners splendid sweet and low aspartame, diet soda, diet snample,
Speaker 2: diet coke, all that stuff. The gums are all full
Speaker 2: of that stuff. There's a lot of crop out there,
Speaker 2: but sometimes you need to avoid it. You gotta avoid it.
Speaker 2: Those energy drings, some of them have cyanide in it.
Speaker 2: Look at your ingredients. See what's in that stuff that
Speaker 2: you're putting in your body. All right, So the less
Speaker 2: toxins you put in the body, the easier it is
Speaker 2: to heal its well. Teach you this stuff so that
Speaker 2: you can improve your body, improve your brain function, get
Speaker 2: to the root cause of problem so that you prevent
Speaker 2: future problems. Therefore you'll function better, feel better, and live
Speaker 2: a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan. More when
Speaker 2: we come back from the break.

Speaker 2: This month is health and Wellness month, so we want
Speaker 2: to get to the root cause of the problems. Before
Speaker 2: the break, we were talking about headaches. To get to
Speaker 2: the root cause of the headaches. And there's all different
Speaker 2: types of headaches, migraines, clusters, tension, stress headaches, there's sinus headaches.
Speaker 2: Sinus headaches usually will be like there's four sinus points.
Speaker 2: There's two above your eyebrows and two below your eyes,
Speaker 2: so I might have to do a sinus release. I
Speaker 2: have an instrument that helps to eliminate all the sinus pressure,
Speaker 2: all the toxins. So if you get to the root
Speaker 2: cause of problem, you don't need to take the medicine.
Speaker 2: You don't need to take the herbs or the supplements.
Speaker 2: Many people love popping pills. Stop being a pill popper.
Speaker 2: God gave you this amazing body to heal its own,
Speaker 2: and it gave you this amazing earth. It's full of
Speaker 2: fruit and veggies, and the sun to give you vitamin D,
Speaker 2: the air to breathe, water to drink. It's all here.
Speaker 2: Don't complicate it. It's easy to be healthy. Do it
Speaker 2: the way they've always did it, where they're playing outside,
Speaker 2: eating real food, having fun. Don't forget to have fun.
Speaker 2: There's twenty four hours a day, eight hours of sleep.
Speaker 2: Eight hours is work. Gotta work for it. Life isn't easy.
Speaker 2: Eight hours is fun. You gotta enjoy life. We have
Speaker 2: to enjoy the time you're here. You're not here that
Speaker 2: long on earth. Have some fun. Stop just watching TV
Speaker 2: and working. It's not a life. Experience life, be with
Speaker 2: people and friends and family, and visit places and explore

Speaker 2: go to the Jersey Shore Fire Island. Actually taking more
Speaker 2: than twelve doesn't have to be a whole week or
Speaker 2: two weeks. It could just be for the weekend. But
Speaker 2: why are we here on this earth. It's not to
Speaker 2: watch TV, go on Facebook, work, eat and sleep. Just
Speaker 2: to experience life. Get out of the house. Your house
Speaker 2: is for sleep, that's it. You should be out and
Speaker 2: about all day long, experiencing life. Don't buy people materials
Speaker 2: or presents. Do something with them. Take them to a show,
Speaker 2: do a little dance lesson, go to a concert. Try
Speaker 2: and do something where you're not sitting. Go to the rodeo,
Speaker 2: go to medieval times, go to Disney World, go to
Speaker 2: Great Adventure, go hiking and kayaking, go biking. Take some lessons,
Speaker 2: learn how to sew, join a book club, learn a
Speaker 2: new language, learn an instrument, learn how to play the
Speaker 2: ukulele or the harmonica. Read some new books. People don't
Speaker 2: read anymore, start reading again. Could learn so much from books.
Speaker 2: You could do audible books too. You know, if you
Speaker 2: have a commute to work, do audible books. Don't always
Speaker 2: just listen to the news or the radio, or you
Speaker 2: put on your music or your Spotify. Learn something. You
Speaker 2: gotta keep learning. You don't want dementia alzheimers. You gotta
Speaker 2: learn new stuff every day. Gotta do new things, Gotta
Speaker 2: go to new places, meet new people. Use that brain.
Speaker 2: You're always on these smart devices. Your brain gets worse.
Speaker 2: It's called digital dementia. Do you want dementia? I don't.
Speaker 2: Got to stay away from the devices. Gotta be social,
Speaker 2: don't be at home, you can't sit called the twenty rule.
Speaker 2: Never sit for more than twenty minutes. The twenty rule.
Speaker 2: Every twenty minutes, you get up for twenty seconds, you
Speaker 2: walk twenty feet and you look twenty feet away. The
Speaker 2: twenty rule. It will change your life. I don't care
Speaker 2: if you're working, you're eating, you're reading, you're studying, you're
Speaker 2: at the computer, you're watching TV, you're on the airplane,
Speaker 2: on the bus. Every twenty minutes, you get up and
Speaker 2: move your body. You use it or you lose it.
Speaker 2: Health and wellness is about prevention. Now let's cover the
Speaker 2: seven key pillars to success of health and wellness. Number one,
Speaker 2: which we spoke about a little bit already, is sleep.
Speaker 2: You gotta get your seven to eight hours of sleep
Speaker 2: a night, and you want to sleep when it's dark.
Speaker 2: So idealistically you're sleeping from ten to six, or if
Speaker 2: it's the summertime, the sun comes up a little bit
Speaker 2: earlier ten to five. At your seven hours in the
Speaker 2: summer eight hour in the winter. You go to bed early,
Speaker 2: you wake up early. When you wake up, exercise right away.
Speaker 2: That's when your cortisol is highest. We said before go
Speaker 2: outside during sunrise, you gotta do computer work. You do
Speaker 2: it in the morning, not at night. We want that
Speaker 2: cortisol high in the morning, So get that light. Get
Speaker 2: the sunlight, the computer screens, whatever it is, the TV,
Speaker 2: check your messages, your iPhone. Do it in the morning.
Speaker 2: That's when you need the light. That's when the blue
Speaker 2: light is not harmful. The blue light's only harmful at
Speaker 2: night when the sun is down. People think blue light
Speaker 2: is always harmful. No, it's only at night when the
Speaker 2: sun's down. The sun emits blue light. That's why the
Speaker 2: sky is blue and the water is blue. Blue light
Speaker 2: is healthy during the dead when we want cortisol high.
Speaker 2: During the night, we want cortisol low. That's all you're
Speaker 2: gonna get good sleep. So you don't want to have
Speaker 2: TV at night, specially you don't want to watch the news.
Speaker 2: That's more stressful, more cortisol. Stay away from the news.
Speaker 2: Turn off the news. It's not real. They have their agenda.
Speaker 2: They're not telling you what's real. It's not the news.
Speaker 2: It's not keeping you informed. It's keeping you misinformed because
Speaker 2: they're only telling you the little tidbits that they want
Speaker 2: you to know, so you're actually not informed. People have
Speaker 2: this big misconception that they have to watch the news
Speaker 2: to be informed. The more people that watch the news
Speaker 2: are the least informed. Stop watching the news, and you'll
Speaker 2: become more informed than ever. You'll start understanding how the
Speaker 2: real world works, now, how people are telling you to believe.
Speaker 2: You want to have good sleep, stop watching the news.
Speaker 2: You want to reduce anxiety, stop watching the news, Stop
Speaker 2: reading the newspaper, Stop going on social media where everyone's
Speaker 2: posting the news. If you want to be stressed and
Speaker 2: you all want good sleep, fine watch the news. If
Speaker 2: that's your goal is to be stressed and not have
Speaker 2: good sleep and have more anxiety, more depression, horrible mood,
Speaker 2: low energy, watch the news. If you want have less anxiety,
Speaker 2: less depression, more energy, better sleep, better brain function, then
Speaker 2: you'll turn off the news, and you'll turn it off
Speaker 2: knowing the fact that it's not informing you of anything.
Speaker 2: They're just trying to put you in fear mode and
Speaker 2: make you think that you need the government to help you,
Speaker 2: or you need the pharmaceutical companies to help you get healthy.
Speaker 2: I was away on vacation last week. I was in
Speaker 2: a Dominican My kids, you know, they love soccer and basketball.
Speaker 2: They love running. So, uh, we don't have cable in
Speaker 2: our house, but we run vacations. In the hotel room,
Speaker 2: they had TV. So my son was like, Daddy, can
Speaker 2: we please watch the Olympics? So I said, sure, let's
Speaker 2: watch the Olympics. The first thing that he noticed was
Speaker 2: that almost every commercial was a drug commercial, a pharmaceutical commercial.
Speaker 2: My ten year old son, he goes, Daddy, why are
Speaker 2: there so many drug commercials? We don't watch TV, so
Speaker 2: he's never seen this before. It's insane how many drug
Speaker 2: commercials are. And it's insane that people would want to
Speaker 2: take these medications when they list all the side effects,
Speaker 2: and why is a pharmaceutical company advertising a drug should
Speaker 2: just be prescribed if the doctor tells it. It should
Speaker 2: not be if the commercial tells you to, or if
Speaker 2: your governor president tells you to take a drug. The
Speaker 2: only people that should be telling you to take drugs
Speaker 2: or medicine are your doctors. It shouldn't be from a commercial.
Speaker 2: Every country in the world has banned pharmaceutical commercials. Accept
Speaker 2: America and New Zealand, that's it. Every other country has
Speaker 2: banned pharmaceutical commercials because they know that it just makes
Speaker 2: the country more sick. So turn off the news, turn
Speaker 2: off the commercials. If you want to function better, feel better,
Speaker 2: and live a better life, this is doctor Eric Kaplan.

Speaker 2: is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
Speaker 2: brain power. This month is Health and Wellness Month. True
Speaker 2: health and wellness comes from healing within your body has
Speaker 2: the power to heal itself. You don't need all these
Speaker 2: doctors and pills to fix you, but you gotta work
Speaker 2: for it. The more work you put in, the more
Speaker 2: healthy habits you do, the more p the intitive measures
Speaker 2: you take, the least chance you have of developing some
Speaker 2: neurological disorder, some you know, gas intestinal disorder, some cardiovascular problem, obesity.
Speaker 2: There's all types of things that you can avoid by
Speaker 2: making the right decisions today. So the first important factor
Speaker 2: or pillar of your health and well being that we
Speaker 2: spoke about already with sleep. The second pillar to natural
Speaker 2: health and wellbeing is water. You have to drink half
Speaker 2: your body weight of water in ounces. So if you
Speaker 2: weigh one hundred and twenty pounds, you have to drink
Speaker 2: sixty ounces of water every single day. If you weigh
Speaker 2: two hundred pounds, you have to drink one hundred ounces.
Speaker 2: Always drink water on an empty stomach, drinking a half
Speaker 2: hour before each meal. Your brain is like a grape.
Speaker 2: When it gets dehydrated, it shrivels up into a raisin.
Speaker 2: Do you want your brain to be nice and juicy
Speaker 2: and big and round, and you're gonna be all small
Speaker 2: and shriveled up an atrophed well. One way to prevent
Speaker 2: that atrophe, to prevent dementia Alzheimer's is to stay hydrated
Speaker 2: half your body weight in ounces. If you work out,
Speaker 2: you have to drink a little bit more. If you
Speaker 2: have coffee that's a diuretic, you're gonna need to drink
Speaker 2: more water. You drink alcohol that dehydrates you, you have
Speaker 2: to drink more. Put a pinch of pink and moine
Speaker 2: salt or the Celtic sea salt into the water to
Speaker 2: get the electrolytes, so you absorb the water. If you're
Speaker 2: drinking poland springs to Sonny, you're just going to drink
Speaker 2: the water. Pee it out, drink the water, peet out.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna absorb it. But what you are gonna
Speaker 2: intake is those chemicals in the plastics that leach into
Speaker 2: the water. Those plastics can affect your estrogen. So a
Speaker 2: lot of men come to see me for a rectile dysfunction.
Speaker 2: The more plastics you have, the more estrogen. If you
Speaker 2: have tofu soy if you have soy sauce, you have
Speaker 2: soybean oil. That's gonna affect your hormones. Right, If you
Speaker 2: have ed. Stop storing food and plastic. Stop drinking out
Speaker 2: of plastic water bottles. Stop eating soy bean curved out
Speaker 2: of mamee tofu. Stay away from it. All those fake meats,
Speaker 2: soybean oil, stay away from it. Most restaurants are gonna
Speaker 2: cook with some sort of soybean oil. Have some soy sauce.
Speaker 2: That's gonna mess with your hormones. All right, So you
Speaker 2: got your sleep is number one. Water is number two.
Speaker 2: Exercise is number three. You have to exercise. You gotta
Speaker 2: move your body every day. Sitting is the new smoking.
Speaker 2: Harvard came out with a study that chose that sitting
Speaker 2: will kill you. You have to get off your butt,
Speaker 2: gonna move your body. Find something that you like to do.
Speaker 2: I don't care if it's taking a dance class, biking, swimming,
Speaker 2: play some sports, tennis, basketball, soccer, run around the track,
Speaker 2: some hiking, rollerblading. Find something that you like to do.
Speaker 2: I don't care if it's kayaking, but if it gets
Speaker 2: you out of the house, move in your body, that's fine.
Speaker 2: Take some classes, pilates, yoga. You could take dance class,
Speaker 2: pole dancing, hip hop dancing, zoomba. You can take line dancing.
Speaker 2: You can take tango, salsilescent, you do belly dancing. Just
Speaker 2: find something that's fun, find something that you like to do.
Speaker 2: Some people are really into the psycho classes, the peloton,
Speaker 2: whatever it is. There's a community. Great, but social great.
Speaker 2: But exercise every day. At least people say, oh, you
Speaker 2: don't have to exercise every day. Yes, you've got to
Speaker 2: move your body every day. It is very rare someone
Speaker 2: is over exercising. Almost everybody's under exercising. And if you
Speaker 2: work out so hard that you gotta take a week
Speaker 2: off because you're so sore, that's too much. Don't push
Speaker 2: yourself too much, but push yourself enough where you can
Speaker 2: exercise every day. You gotta be a little uncomfortable, gotta exercise,
Speaker 2: move your body. The worst thing is sitting. The twenty rule.
Speaker 2: Every twenty minutes of sitting, you get up for twenty seconds,
Speaker 2: you walk twenty feet and you look twenty feet away.
Speaker 2: You're gonna change your life, all right. So we got sleep,
Speaker 2: we got water, you got exercise. The fourth pillar nutrition,
Speaker 2: You gotta eat healthy. Eating healthy is not complicated. You
Speaker 2: don't have to follow the ketogenic diet or the paleo
Speaker 2: diet or Atkins or carnivore, be a vegan, or do
Speaker 2: the blood type diet, or do the thirty thirty forty
Speaker 2: or you know, it's like there's so many these rules
Speaker 2: and counting calories and wade watchers, and it's just too stressful.
Speaker 2: Don't complicate it. You want to eat healthy, Give you
Speaker 2: a couple simple rules. Number one, every day, make sure
Speaker 2: you eat each color of the rainbow. You have to
Speaker 2: eat something that's red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
Speaker 2: Every day. You've got to cover the rainbow. The second
Speaker 2: thing that's super important is avoid the white foods. Milk, sugar, dairy, flour, bread, sandy.
Speaker 4: Juice, noodles, rice patoes, crackers, cereal, bagels, croissants, all those
Speaker 4: white grains.
Speaker 2: Stay away from them. You want to be healthy, you
Speaker 2: eat the colors. You stay away from the white foods.
Speaker 2: It's that's simple. Don't eat processed foods. Nothing in boxes
Speaker 2: and cans and bags, nothing stored, these non perishables. I
Speaker 2: want food that molds, that's real food. Eat fresh food.
Speaker 2: It's been picked that morning, all right, So you gotta
Speaker 2: just eat real food like they did when they were
Speaker 2: a hunter gatherers. If you can pick it off a tree,
Speaker 2: pick it out of a bush, pick it out of
Speaker 2: the root. You can get it directly from the earth,
Speaker 2: you know, grab the egg from the nesta, the you know,
Speaker 2: chicken from the earth, the fish from the ocean, right,
Speaker 2: just anything that the earth produces. Not the stuff in
Speaker 2: the middle of the supermarket, in the aisles, which are
Speaker 2: the processed foods, boxes, cans and bags. Stay on the
Speaker 2: outside of the supermarket where everything's fresh. Get a fish
Speaker 2: that was just caught, right, something fresh fruit, fresh fruit,
Speaker 2: fresh vetchies raw. The closer to the earth, the better.
Speaker 2: Don't chop up everything. Eat it as whole as you can,
Speaker 2: you know, don't chop up your carrots or your apples,
Speaker 2: your legs. Eat it whole. That is very good for digestion.
Speaker 2: So the digestive process starts from when you touch the food.
Speaker 2: So it's even better not to use forks or spoons
Speaker 2: or knives. Your knives are your teeth. Cut it with
Speaker 2: your teeth, don't use a fork, use your hands. Let's
Speaker 2: put that digestive process and look at your food. Smell
Speaker 2: your food. Get those different colors make it more enjoyable.
Speaker 2: Such a stuffing food down your face from some microwave
Speaker 2: meal while you're washing the news and scrolling through Facebook.
Speaker 2: Let's do it old school where we eat fresh food,
Speaker 2: home cooked meal with no electronics and everyone actually eats
Speaker 2: and talks about their day, a really good family meal.
Speaker 2: That's ideal. We need to be more social. Right, So
Speaker 2: we got sleep, we got water, we've got exercise, we
Speaker 2: got nutrition. Now we need to talk about oxygen. We
Speaker 2: need lots and lots of oxygen. All right. The normal
Speaker 2: air in the atmosphere is about twenty twenty one percent oxygen.
Speaker 2: We have some cool technology in our office, like an
Speaker 2: oxygen concentrator that filters out that nitrogen and the carbon
Speaker 2: dioxide and increases the concentration of oxygen to forty percent.
Speaker 2: It doubles it. You can do it when you work out.
Speaker 2: You can do it when you do brain exercises. It's
Speaker 2: really cool stuff, an oxygen concentrator. They work very well
Speaker 2: to increase your oxygen levels. Your posture is important for
Speaker 2: your oxygen. If your shoulders are rolled in and your
Speaker 2: head's tilted forward and down, it's going to be harder
Speaker 2: to breathe also get oxygen producing plants for inside money plants,
Speaker 2: alovera plants, snake plants, spider plans. Those increase your oxygen levels.
Speaker 2: The trees outside, go outside in the woods and in
Speaker 2: the forest, one tree gets enough oxygen for five people, right,
Speaker 2: so you want to increase your oxygen do breathing exercises.
Speaker 2: The best breathing exercise is where you exhale twice as
Speaker 2: long as you inhale. So if you inhale for three seconds,
Speaker 2: you exhal for six, then try and do the next
Speaker 2: day inhale for four seconds, excel for eight, and then
Speaker 2: the next day inhale for five seconds, excel for ten.
Speaker 2: You always want to double the act that gets rid
Speaker 2: of the carbon dioxide and increases the oxygen levels. Eventually
Speaker 2: you want to get to where you inhale for eight
Speaker 2: seconds and exhale for sixteen seconds. That's going to maximize
Speaker 2: your oxygen. When you inhale, make sure you breathe from
Speaker 2: your diaphragm, not your shoulders, in your neck. So when
Speaker 2: you inhale, your belly should go down and out, pushing
Speaker 2: your diaphragm down, and then when you exhale, belly should
Speaker 2: come in, pushing the carbon dioxide out. That's called diaframatic breathing.
Speaker 2: And you always want to excel twice as long as
Speaker 2: you inhale, you want to focus on your posture. You
Speaker 2: want to get a nice oxygen concentrator, then you want
Speaker 2: to go out in the woods and for home, you
Speaker 2: want to buy some oxygen purifying plants. Right, that's one
Speaker 2: of the key pillars to improve your health and well
Speaker 2: being so you function better, feel better, and live a
Speaker 2: better life. This is doctor Eric Caplan your list listening
Speaker 2: to boost your 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: 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: doctor Caplin, you can call his team at two oh
Speaker 3: one two six one two one five zero, or visit
Speaker 3: his website at kaplandc dot com.
Speaker 2: Function Better, feel better and live a better life. This
Speaker 2: is doctor Eric Kaplan. You're listening to boost your brain power.
Speaker 2: So we're talking about the pillars to your health and
Speaker 2: wellness starts with a good night's sleep. Gotta get your
Speaker 2: proper rest. You don't get a good night's sleep. It's
Speaker 2: not suggested to take a nap during the day. If
Speaker 2: you need to and you get a good night's sleep,
Speaker 2: that's fine. But if you have trouble falling asleep or
Speaker 2: staying asleep, you want to make sure you don't take
Speaker 2: a nap, so you keep your body up the whole
Speaker 2: day so that it's so exhausted at night you get
Speaker 2: a deeper sleep. A real good deep sleep is when
Speaker 2: you wake up and you're like, WHOA, what day is it?
Speaker 2: What time is it? How long have I been out?
Speaker 3: Where am I?
Speaker 2: That's a good night's sleep. If you know what time
Speaker 2: it is, what day it is, you got up all
Speaker 2: these things to pee, roll over, think. Your mind's raising
Speaker 2: that's not a good night's sleep. You shouldn't remember your dreams.
Speaker 2: That means you're waking up during your deep sleep. So
Speaker 2: everybody dreams, but you should wake up not even knowing
Speaker 2: that you dreat You just want to be like, WHOA,
Speaker 2: how long have I been out? What happened last night?
Speaker 2: That's a real good night's sleep. Number two. Water drink
Speaker 2: your half your body weight and ounces. We need lots
Speaker 2: of water. Put in the Pinkhmelayan salt for the solet water,
Speaker 2: Squeeze some lemon, and always drink on an empty stomach.
Speaker 2: Exercise You gotta find something that you do at least
Speaker 2: exercise five, ten twenty minutes a day, but be consistent
Speaker 2: every single day. Do something, find something that you love
Speaker 2: that gets your heart beaten fast. But also you have
Speaker 2: to do weight resistant exercise. Not just stuff that gets
Speaker 2: you sweaty and your heart beaten fast, but also weight
Speaker 2: resistant exercise. Nutrition. We said you got to eat all
Speaker 2: the colors of the rainbow and stay away from the
Speaker 2: white foods. That's the fourth pillar's nutrition that's super super
Speaker 2: important to function best and feel best. The fifth pillar
Speaker 2: we spoke about was oxygen. You gotta get your oxygen.
Speaker 2: Do your breathing exercise where you exhal twice as long
Speaker 2: as you inhale. Make sure you breathe from your diaphragm
Speaker 2: as well. On the inhale, pushing the diaphragm down and out,
Speaker 2: on the exhale, pushing the diaphragm up and in. These
Speaker 2: will all help, not only it gets you feel better now,
Speaker 2: but to prevent future problems as well. The sixth pillar
Speaker 2: to health and wellness is sunlight. Gotta get outside. We're
Speaker 2: inside all day. You need the sun. The sun's strongest
Speaker 2: in the middle of the day, maybe from twelve to two,
Speaker 2: so that's usually when people have lunch. Go outside, even
Speaker 2: if it's just for twenty minutes. Take off your hat,
Speaker 2: take off your glasses, roll up your sleeves, roll up
Speaker 2: your pants. Get as much skin exposed as pops possible.
Speaker 2: You know, keep it decin, don't get arrested, but expose
Speaker 2: as much skin as possible. Then you wanna get your sunlight.
Speaker 2: Which is vitamin D, which is a hormone. Vitamin D
Speaker 2: the hormone helps with your thyroid helps prevent dementia and Alzheimer's,
Speaker 2: helps with your immune system. I mean, it's the most
Speaker 2: important hormone is vitamin D, and we get it from
Speaker 2: the sunlight. So we're inside all day. We're literally depleting
Speaker 2: ourselves of D. Get out when the sun's strongest. We said,
Speaker 2: for sleep, you want to walk outside during sunrise for
Speaker 2: ten minutes and sunset for ten minutes. But to get
Speaker 2: your vitamin D, you gotta go out in the middle
Speaker 2: of the day. So minimum you want to go out
Speaker 2: three times a day, but you really want to go
Speaker 2: out more, as much as possible and as many hours
Speaker 2: as possible, especially up here in New York and Jersey
Speaker 2: where the sun is weak. You know, it's different. If
Speaker 2: you're near the equator, you don't have to be outside
Speaker 2: all day because it's so powerful there. Now, if you
Speaker 2: have a history of skin cancer, protect yourself and use
Speaker 2: zinc oxide. Never buy anything from CBS like a suntan
Speaker 2: lotion or sunscreen, banana boat, whatever it is. Those are
Speaker 2: all crap toxic chemicals that actually causes skin cancer. Most
Speaker 2: sunscreens and suntann oceans actually cause skin cancer. Yes, that's right.
Speaker 2: It's not protecting you from skin cancer, it's causing it
Speaker 2: because of all the chemicals. Those are the most toxic products.
Speaker 2: People put on their body. If you want a safe
Speaker 2: way to protect yourself, you could actually use coconut boils
Speaker 2: a five SPF that's good for up north. If you're
Speaker 2: on vacation, you're in the Caribbean, you're gonna be outside
Speaker 2: and the beach all day. Zinc oxide is your safest bet.
Speaker 2: That's going to protect you from the sun but not
Speaker 2: cause toxic chemicals to go to your skin and create
Speaker 2: health issues. Got it, suntan lotionans, stay away from it,
Speaker 2: all right. So you need that vitamin D and you
Speaker 2: need your eyes to get the vitamin D. So take
Speaker 2: off your glasses. Don't look directly at the sun, but
Speaker 2: let those rays hit your sun or hit your eyes.
Speaker 2: That's sundlight. And the seventh pillar is positive mental attitude
Speaker 2: and not only for yourself, but you gotta be around
Speaker 2: positive people. If you're always around people that are complaining,
Speaker 2: that are negative talking about all the problems in the world,
Speaker 2: that takes a big toll on your health. If you're negative,
Speaker 2: if you're always complaining, if you're always finding the bad
Speaker 2: in people, that's not good for your health. Be the
Speaker 2: one that shows the good and it be the one
Speaker 2: that shows that there are good people believe in the
Speaker 2: good of the world. Be around people who think good
Speaker 2: is better than evil. Good will prevail. I know good prevail.
Speaker 2: Good always prevails. There's more good people than bad people.
Speaker 2: Bad people are just louder, but there's more good people.
Speaker 2: So I have high faith that the world is going
Speaker 2: in a good place. You would never believe that if
Speaker 2: you turn on the news. All right, turn off the news.
Speaker 2: It's not true. There's ninety nine good things going on
Speaker 2: in the world. The news is gonna report the one
Speaker 2: bad thing. They're gonna ignore the ninety nine good things.
Speaker 2: They're gonna report the one bad thing because that's what
Speaker 2: they want you in fear. They want you turning on
Speaker 2: to be scared. All right, So it's a positive mental latitude.
Speaker 2: You be positive. Don't say I want to prevent uh dementia.
Speaker 2: Say I want to improve my memory. Don't say, oh
Speaker 2: I want help with my insomnia. Say I want to
Speaker 2: improve my sleep. Got it. So the words we use
Speaker 2: are important, right. You don't want to say, oh, I
Speaker 2: want to I want to prevent cancer. You want to
Speaker 2: say I want to improve my immune system. Got it.
Speaker 2: So the words we speak are super important. Now, how
Speaker 2: do you know what area of this health and wellness.
Speaker 2: Are you missing well? You have to do a complete evaluation,
Speaker 2: a one on one evaluation with me, where I could
Speaker 2: check out your heart, your lungs, could check out your posture,
Speaker 2: your alignment, your memory, your focus, your gait. Check out
Speaker 2: your respond to lights and sounds and smells. See your
Speaker 2: reaction time, your focus, see your muscle strength, your reflexes.
Speaker 2: So there's a lot. We could check your circulation, your
Speaker 2: heart rate, your digestion, you have bloating, so do full evaluation.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give a gift to you guys. A one
Speaker 2: on one with me normally is five hundred dollars, but
Speaker 2: for the first seven people to call, text or email
Speaker 2: you could get the entire one on one with me
Speaker 2: for only twenty one dollars. Okay, Now, I'm also gonna
Speaker 2: give away a second test, which is called a q
Speaker 2: EEG Brain mapping. For this, you wear cap that's got
Speaker 2: electrodes attached to it and they measure your brain waves
Speaker 2: and they're gonna tell us you have depression, do you
Speaker 2: have anxiety? Do you have a thyroid problem, you have
Speaker 2: intestinal inflammation? Do you have low acetyl coling? Do you
Speaker 2: have difficulty shifting tasks. Do you have short term memory
Speaker 2: long term memory problems? Do you have motivation problems? Do
Speaker 2: you have energy problems? Do you have issues with your
Speaker 2: balance and your eyes or your ears? You have headaches
Speaker 2: and ringing, you have having metal poisoning, you have a concussion.
Speaker 2: So it literally analyzes your whole brain. That test is
Speaker 2: normally five hundred dollars as well, but for the first
Speaker 2: seven people to call, text or email you could get
Speaker 2: that only twenty one dollars. The third test that we're
Speaker 2: going to give as a gift, it's called a VNG
Speaker 2: video listography, And this is a test where we measure
Speaker 2: with infrared cameras on these goggles. They measure eye movements
Speaker 2: fast and slow, and up and down and with light,
Speaker 2: with no light, and with a head movement. And it's
Speaker 2: gonna tell us which areas of the brain are overactive
Speaker 2: and which areas are underactive. You know, for people with
Speaker 2: overactive brain, they might have inzomia or heart palpitations, or
Speaker 2: anxiety or panic disorders, or their minds always racing. They
Speaker 2: can't relax and calm down. Everything's overactive. They might have
Speaker 2: autoimmune disease and might effet. They're thyroid or their gut
Speaker 2: or their digestion, or they might be underactive areas. They
Speaker 2: might have low motivation, bad memory or focus, low energy,
Speaker 2: slow metabolism, trouble losing weight. Is their underactive brain. The
Speaker 2: VG is the best tell us. Okay, it's the right side,
Speaker 2: is the left side which it's overactive, which is underactive?
Speaker 2: I love that test. That's five hundred dollars as well.

Speaker 2: you can get that test for twenty one dollars. And
Speaker 2: the best deal overall is to do all three tests
