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. One of the most common questions I get
Speaker 2: is what vitamins should I take to improve my brain function?
Speaker 2: And the answer is none. There's no vitamin or supplement
Speaker 2: that you could take that's going to improve your brain function,
Speaker 2: prevent Alzheimer's dementia, improve your memory, your focus. Right, So
Speaker 2: if there was a magic pill medicine supplement that people
Speaker 2: could take to improve their memory, everyone would just take
Speaker 2: it and everyone would have a good memory. But there
Speaker 2: is no magic pill, so stop looking for it. You're
Speaker 2: not gonna be able to get you know, pavagen or
Speaker 2: something like that that's just gonna fix your brain. That's
Speaker 2: what people want, is the easy, quick fix. But that's
Speaker 2: not reality. Now, supplements can be dangerous, just like medicine can.
Speaker 2: So people think about the side effects of medication, but
Speaker 2: nobody talks about the side effects of supplements. En vitamins.
Speaker 2: Ninety nine percent of these supplements, they have contaminants, they
Speaker 2: have fillers, they have impurities. They're full of some sort
Speaker 2: of artificial flavor, some sweeteners, some food dye, some preservative,
Speaker 2: some crappy chemical that's in these pills. It's not natural.
Speaker 2: We're not living in the Jetsons where you just eat
Speaker 2: a pill for your breakfast. We have food. Start eating
Speaker 2: real food from the earth, not stuff that's in pills
Speaker 2: and cans and boxes and bags and processed. The closer
Speaker 2: to the Earth, the better. And don't take a multivitamin.
Speaker 2: I don't know why people take multivitamins and it's so popular.
Speaker 2: I remember as a kid everyone used to take those
Speaker 2: Flintstone vitamins. But those are full of sugar, food diving.
Speaker 2: It's literally just like eating candy. And they liked it
Speaker 2: because the kids loved it, and they the marketing made
Speaker 2: the parents think that they're giving their kids all their vitamins.
Speaker 2: But you don't need a multivitamin. If you want to
Speaker 2: get all your vitamins, the basic, simple way to do
Speaker 2: it is to eat each color of the rainbow. If
Speaker 2: you eat each color of the rainbow, you get all
Speaker 2: your nutrients. So every day eat something that's red. I
Speaker 2: don't care if it's a raspberry, a strawberry, an apple,
Speaker 2: a red pepper, a tomato. Just eat something that's red,
Speaker 2: and then you eat something that's orange, whether it's a carrot,
Speaker 2: sweet potato, salmon, an orange. And don't drink orange juice
Speaker 2: and think that's healthy. Juicing is not healthy. Juicing takes
Speaker 2: the way all the nutrients, all the fiber, and leaves
Speaker 2: you all the sugar. So if you want a juice
Speaker 2: in a healthy way, you actually juice. Pour out the
Speaker 2: juice and eat all the scraps. That's the best way
Speaker 2: to juice. Pour out the juice, eat the scraps. But
Speaker 2: it's much better to eat an orange than to have
Speaker 2: orange juice. It's much healthier to eat an apple than
Speaker 2: to have apple juice. That's too much healthier to eat
Speaker 2: celery than drink celery juice. All right, so stop juicing.
Speaker 2: Eat the food in its most natural form. And even
Speaker 2: when you eat a carrot, don't cut up the carrot.
Speaker 2: Eat the whole carrot, eat the whole celery stalk, take
Speaker 2: a big piece of lettuce. Don't cut everything up. Your
Speaker 2: digestive process starts from when you touch it, so don't
Speaker 2: use forks and knives either. Use your hands. Eat the
Speaker 2: food's whole, eat one ingredient foods, and to get all
Speaker 2: your nutrients, eat each color of the rainbow. Right. If
Speaker 2: you ate red orange, Now you gotta have some yellow.
Speaker 2: I have some squash, I have a banana, some califlower,
Speaker 2: some pineapple, right, yellow pepper, get that yellow in there. Green. Right,
Speaker 2: that's the easiest. You got cucumbers and celery, and spinach,
Speaker 2: and broccoli, and asparagus and artichokes. Right, a lot of
Speaker 2: good healthy green stuff. You got blue, blueberries and blackberries.
Speaker 2: You got purple. You got some purple leaf lettuce, got
Speaker 2: some eggplant, got plumb grape, got purple cabbage. There's plenty
Speaker 2: of option for all the different colors. Make sure you
Speaker 2: eat each color of the rainbow every single day, and
Speaker 2: you will never need a multi vitamin because you're getting
Speaker 2: all your nutrients all right, So be careful with taking vitamins.
Speaker 2: One of the most common vitamins that people take is calcium.
Speaker 2: And guess what. The most dangerous vitamin that people take
Speaker 2: is calcium. And doctors are going around telling people to
Speaker 2: take calcium. Now, you have to be aware that in
Speaker 2: medical school, doctors are not taught nutrition, so they may
Speaker 2: not be your best option for getting nutritional advice. You
Speaker 2: want to go to an expert. I am a brain expert.
Speaker 2: If you want to know anything about the brain, you
Speaker 2: come to see me. You're not going to go to
Speaker 2: a cardiologist for your brain questions. Now, your brain controls everything,
Speaker 2: all right. So if you're taking vitamins, but you don't
Speaker 2: have good absorption in your gut because your brain's not
Speaker 2: telling your stomach to produce stomach acid. Proper bacteria have
Speaker 2: the proper peristalsis, contractions, the lubrication, the enzymes, all the
Speaker 2: stuff that we need. Your brain controls your gastro intestinal system.
Speaker 2: But everyone's busy doing all these colonoscopy, these endoscopies. They're
Speaker 2: taken antibiotics and acids, tombs, rollaids, these protein pumps, inhibitors.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's all these inflammatory conditions of the GI
Speaker 2: track that is being treated inappropriately. Many medicines are just
Speaker 2: hiding symptoms. We don't want to hide symptoms. We want
Speaker 2: to get to the root cause of the problem. Sometimes
Speaker 2: supplements hide symptoms. If you have trouble sleeping, don't take
Speaker 2: melatonin because now the brain says, oh, you're supplementing melatonin.
Speaker 2: So I don't need to produce it on my own.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna actually decrease the melatone and I produce.
Speaker 2: Now my sleep's gonna get worse. You gotta be very
Speaker 2: careful with how you approach your health. You gotta be
Speaker 2: careful taking all these supplements. You don't need a multi
Speaker 2: vitamin to get all your nutrients. You don't need melatonin
Speaker 2: to help you sleep. You don't need to take iron
Speaker 2: because you're anemic, or B twelve because you're a vegetarian.
Speaker 2: All these things that we're taught is incorrect. You should
Speaker 2: only take a supplement if you absolutely need it, and
Speaker 2: the way to know if you absolutely need it is
Speaker 2: to do blood work. But you need to see a
Speaker 2: functional doctor like myself who can let you know what's
Speaker 2: appropriate and what's not appropriate. You need a doctor with education,
Speaker 2: so you don't just start taking pills for no reason.
Speaker 2: The only reason to take a pill is because you're deficient.
Speaker 2: The only reason to supplement because your body isn't doing
Speaker 2: it for you. So I personally take a vitamin D supplement.
Speaker 2: It's a liquid called Ultra D five thousand that's in
Speaker 2: fat so it could get absorbed. There's four vitamins A, D, E,
Speaker 2: and K that are fat soluble and they all work together.
Speaker 2: So if you're taking D but you're not taking the A,
Speaker 2: the E and the K along with it, it's not
Speaker 2: gonna get absorbed. If you're taking D but it's not
Speaker 2: in fat, it's not gonna get absorbed if it's not
Speaker 2: in a proper ratio of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus biot's in.
Speaker 2: So all these things need to be put together in
Speaker 2: a specific formula for your vitamin D three to get absorbed.
Speaker 2: Nine percent of the supplements and vitamins out there aren't
Speaker 2: set up that way. That's why I only personally take
Speaker 2: the Ultra D five thousand from Apex Energetics, and I
Speaker 2: only suggest that to my patients, and I would only
Speaker 2: suggest that to my listeners as well. Now, the reason
Speaker 2: we need vitamin D in the winter is because we
Speaker 2: get vitamin D from the sun, and in the winter
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of sunlight and you're wearing long
Speaker 2: sleeves and you're covering your head and you're wearing not
Speaker 2: too much skin exposure. So that's for you're gonna check
Speaker 2: your vitamin D levels in your blood work, and if
Speaker 2: your vitamin D levels in your blood work are very low,
Speaker 2: then you need to supplement. So again, the only reason
Speaker 2: to ever take vitamins or supplements is because you look
Speaker 2: in the blood work and you find an abnormality that
Speaker 2: you need to work on until you could get it
Speaker 2: up in a natural and holistic way. But it must
Speaker 2: be analyzed by a functional doctor so you know exactly
Speaker 2: what you need to take, how long to take it for.
Speaker 2: Don't just guess and just read an article and say
Speaker 2: I'm going to take the supplement because I heard this
Speaker 2: is good for energy, or this is good for sleep,
Speaker 2: or this is good for memory. Don't do it. Everyone's
Speaker 2: an individual. You got to check your blood work, do
Speaker 2: a proper analysis, get an evaluation by a functional doctor,
Speaker 2: and that way you'll function better, feel better, and live
Speaker 2: a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan. You're listening

Speaker 2: This is doctor Eric Aplin, and you're listening to boost
Speaker 2: your brain power. Now. In your lifetime, you're only allowed
Speaker 2: a certain amount of radiation before your body shuts down.
Speaker 2: Shuts down. It could actually create cancer, you can get sick,
Speaker 2: you can mess up your immune system on immune disease.
Speaker 2: It could create a lot of inflammation. So we're only
Speaker 2: allowed a certain amount of radiation in our lifetime. So
Speaker 2: you have to limit it as much as you can.
Speaker 2: And there's lots of areas where you could limit right,
Speaker 2: so you can, you know, not get so many dental
Speaker 2: X rays. You cannot stand in Starbucks for so long.
Speaker 2: When you're in Starbucks, It's like you're in a microwave
Speaker 2: because all the Wi Fi, all the radiation. Everyone's on
Speaker 2: their data plans, everyone's on their five G. They're just
Speaker 2: hanging out there. They're on their computers and their cell
Speaker 2: phones and their iPads. There's a lot of radiation when
Speaker 2: people just hanging out all in this one little coffee
Speaker 2: shop there. The airplanes have lots of radiation. You gotta
Speaker 2: limit your flying. Start driving more right so you know
Speaker 2: when you go to the airport, get the pack down.
Speaker 2: You know, when you go to the doctor. Don't always
Speaker 2: do all these X rays and cat scans and pet scans.
Speaker 2: And there's a lot of radiations everywhere. Your microwave, that's radiation.
Speaker 2: Your cell phone, that's radiation. You should always have your
Speaker 2: cell phone minimum six inches away from you at all times,
Speaker 2: and at night you want it six feet away from you.
Speaker 2: Then all these little Bluetooth devices they have radiation. You know,
Speaker 2: the AirPods for your ears to listen to your music,
Speaker 2: the Apple watches, you know, these little devices. The arid
Speaker 2: device is the swoop. You know these things. They measure
Speaker 2: whatever it is, your respiration and your heart rate and
Speaker 2: your sleeping patterns. But you're radiating your body. You got
Speaker 2: to limit your radiation. Stay away from electricity towers, stay
Speaker 2: away from cell phone towers, stay away from the big cities.
Speaker 2: There's a website, I think it's antennas dot Com. You
Speaker 2: could go and you could see how much antennas are
Speaker 2: near you, how many cell phone towers are near you,
Speaker 2: So you could see are you exposed to a lot
Speaker 2: of radiation? And you put it well within two miles,
Speaker 2: like how many towers are near me. It's pretty scary.
Speaker 2: You go into the middle of the country, you know
Speaker 2: you're in Kansas or you know, Idaho or someplace like that,
Speaker 2: there's very low amount of antennas and towers and stuff
Speaker 2: like that. You go towards the suburbs, it's a lot more.
Speaker 2: And when you go in the inner city it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2: So when you're in the inner city, it's just like
Speaker 2: a you're just constantly being radiated because there's so many
Speaker 2: people using all these devices, so many five G towers
Speaker 2: close together, so many electricity towers, there's so many antennas,
Speaker 2: there's so many you know, these boxes, there's so much
Speaker 2: Wi Fi, there's so much five G. I mean, it's
Speaker 2: crazy amount of radiation. So the more in seclusion you are,
Speaker 2: the more open space you are, the more in nature
Speaker 2: you are, the less radiation. You might have to think
Speaker 2: about moving out of the big city if you don't
Speaker 2: want all this radiation. Okay, so you got to make
Speaker 2: good decisions. You have to make healthy decisions. If you're
Speaker 2: on your cell phone, don't hold it next to your ear.
Speaker 2: Get a wire headphone set, not a Bluetooth device, but
Speaker 2: wire old school. Keep your phone six inches away from you,
Speaker 2: so you could be with your phone six inches away
Speaker 2: from you, have the wire connected and still talk and
Speaker 2: not get the radiation. If you are talking on your
Speaker 2: phone and your phone is near you, just turn off
Speaker 2: the Wi Fi. You don't need the Wi Fi, so
Speaker 2: don't add extra radiation. Only use your Wi Fi when
Speaker 2: you actually need it. You're downloading something, you're you know,
Speaker 2: on the internet. You know there's not a good cell
Speaker 2: phone signal, but your Wi Fi should be off most
Speaker 2: of the day. It's only when you don't have your
Speaker 2: cell phone signal, and then turn off your five G.
Speaker 2: Most cell phones have was setting where you could turn
Speaker 2: off five G and only use three G or four G,
Speaker 2: so they have a the regular landline is one G,
Speaker 2: you know, and that's when I was growing up. You'd
Speaker 2: have the phone that was attached to the wall with
Speaker 2: the long wire. That is one G. Then they invented
Speaker 2: the portable phones that's without a wire at all, but
Speaker 2: you still need a landline connection into the base. That's
Speaker 2: two G. Then the cell phones were invented where you
Speaker 2: don't need any plug, you're just using the signals there.
Speaker 2: That's three G. Then we started using you know, all
Speaker 2: the stuff for the Internet and stuff. Then it became
Speaker 2: four G. And now we're up to five G because
Speaker 2: they've won all this super speed. You know, to me,
Speaker 2: three G and four G were plenty fast. Five G
Speaker 2: is not that much faster. We don't need five G.
Speaker 2: It's just more radiation. So that's not good. And they're
Speaker 2: building these towers everywhere, and they build them usually you know,
Speaker 2: by the I know in New Jersey they're at the
Speaker 2: police stations and the firehouses and the schools and near
Speaker 2: all these government buildings. I wouldn't be surprised, you know
Speaker 2: if a few years from now we're gonna see all
Speaker 2: these police and firemen and all these jobs that are
Speaker 2: right next to the five G towers start to get
Speaker 2: a little sick because it's a lot of radiation. We're
Speaker 2: gonna be very very careful. Don't use your microwave oven.
Speaker 2: That's radiation. Microwaves are not safe and they kill all
Speaker 2: your food. They kill water. If you microwave water and
Speaker 2: then try and use that water for your plants or
Speaker 2: something like that, those plants will die. You don't utilize
Speaker 2: the nutrients if you microwave your food. And if you
Speaker 2: use plastics, even if it says microwaveable safe, it's not.
Speaker 2: Those plastics are leaking into the food. The plastics in
Speaker 2: the water bottles, they leak into the water. Stop using plastic,
Speaker 2: and definitely don't cook in the microwave with the plastic.
Speaker 2: The average American eats about a credit card size worth
Speaker 2: a plastic every year. We got to stop eating the plastics.
Speaker 2: They're endocrine disruptors. They mess up your hormones. It goes
Speaker 2: you to gain weight. You want to lose weight. Stop
Speaker 2: using plastic water bottles, Start using glass and stainless steel.
Speaker 2: Store all your food in glass or stainless steel. Cook
Speaker 2: with stainless steel. Don't use aluminum pans or a taflon
Speaker 2: or a non stick. Use stainless steel all right, don't
Speaker 2: use aluminum foil to cook with. Don't wrap stuff in
Speaker 2: aluminum foil. You can use the parchment paper, you know,
Speaker 2: those old school brown paper. You know. We have to
Speaker 2: start thinking, how can I reduce my radiation? How can
Speaker 2: I reduce my heavy metals, How can I reduce my
Speaker 2: chemical exposure? How can I reduce my plastics? Start making
Speaker 2: healthy decisions. There's so much stuff that you have no
Speaker 2: control over. So the stuff that you do have control over,
Speaker 2: start utilizing it. You gotta use glass over plastic, stainless
Speaker 2: steel over muminum. Make better decisions. Turn off your Wi Fi,
Speaker 2: turn off the five G. Don't take so many X
Speaker 2: rays and cat scans and pet scans. The pet scans
Speaker 2: have the most radiation out of all of them. Don't
Speaker 2: always do these mammograms for your breasts. If you want
Speaker 2: to check, do thermography, do digital use your hands. Just
Speaker 2: feel your breasts every day. Same thing for the men.
Speaker 2: Feel your testicles, feel your skin. You'll know what's good
Speaker 2: and what's not good. You gotta be old school doctors.
Speaker 2: Do a prostate exam. You don't necessarily need to do
Speaker 2: MRIs and use those contrast fluid Okay, there's so many natural, holistic,
Speaker 2: easy ways to analyze your health without using radiation, and
Speaker 2: then you can function better, feel better, and live a
Speaker 2: better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan. You're listening to
Speaker 2: boost your brain power more when we come back from
Speaker 2: the break.
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 Caplan 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 Caplin
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 Kaplin, 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 Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
Speaker 2: brain power. Now. Currently, right now, it is almost the
Speaker 2: shortest day of the year where we have the least daylight, right,
Speaker 2: and it's like, you know, five o'clock and it's already
Speaker 2: dark outside, right, so the sun's going down very early
Speaker 2: and there's less daylight. It's almost the shortest day of
Speaker 2: the year, the winter solstice. Now, the shorter the day is,
Speaker 2: the less sunlight, and the less sunlight, the less vitamin
Speaker 2: D and a lot of people get what's called seasonal
Speaker 2: affect disorder SAD, and that means people get depressed in
Speaker 2: the winter. So when you have less vitamin D, which
Speaker 2: is a hormone, it could actually cause depression. When you
Speaker 2: have less vitamin D, it can affect your thyroid, and
Speaker 2: your thyroid controls your hormones, so when you have a
Speaker 2: thyroid problem, it can affect your energy. A lot of
Speaker 2: people get fatigue, they might have difficulty losing weight, they
Speaker 2: might have dry skin, might have low energy, brain fog, headaches.
Speaker 2: They also might get some really greasy hair, and they
Speaker 2: might get heart palpitations, and they might get difficulties sleeping
Speaker 2: and anxiety and dizzyness and autoimmune disease, and so there
Speaker 2: could be a lot of different variety of symptoms when
Speaker 2: you have a thyroid problem, So why a lot of
Speaker 2: times it goes undetected because most doctors don't even check
Speaker 2: for that. Now, when you do blood work, and hopefully
Speaker 2: you do that at least on a yearly basis, you
Speaker 2: should check your thyroid. It's a very common condition and
Speaker 2: it's usually aggravated by autoimmune disease. So when you check
Speaker 2: your thyroid, it's necessary. You have to check what's called
Speaker 2: your antibodies. If you don't check your thyroid antibodies, you'll
Speaker 2: never know what type of thyroid problem you have. Because
Speaker 2: the most common thyroid problem is called hashimotos, which is
Speaker 2: an autoimmune disease. So it's not actually a primary thyroid disease,
Speaker 2: which would tend using medicine. That's not what we want.
Speaker 2: It's an auoimmune disease, which is an immune system problem
Speaker 2: where the body's attacking itself. So you always want to
Speaker 2: get to the root cause of your condition, so fix
Speaker 2: your immune system as opposed to taking medicine to balance
Speaker 2: out your thyroid numbers. So what it is is you
Speaker 2: don't need to take medicine if you have an aoimmune
Speaker 2: disease of the thyroid, which is called Graves disease of
Speaker 2: its hyper thyroid and hashimotos if it's hypo thyroid. Those
Speaker 2: are autoimmune diseases of the thyroid that need to be
Speaker 2: checked with blood work. So you do a full thyroid panel,
Speaker 2: including vitamin D, including your thyroid antibodies, including TSH, T
Speaker 2: three T four free T three free T four TI,
Speaker 2: all these things that we need to check. There's about
Speaker 2: ten different things TPO, the antibodies, the ab so we
Speaker 2: got to check all these things to get to the
Speaker 2: root cause. Is your thyroid coming from your petuitary? Is
Speaker 2: it a primary thyroid, is it a secondary? Is it
Speaker 2: an autoimmune? Is it a grave is it a hatshimotos?
Speaker 2: But we need to do a full thyroid panel to
Speaker 2: figure out what is the root cause. So I'm not
Speaker 2: the type of doctor that hides symptoms with pills and
Speaker 2: supplements and herbs. But I'm like a detective type of doctor.
Speaker 2: So I do a good analysis to figure out, Okay,
Speaker 2: where is the problem coming from. To get to the
Speaker 2: root cause, not just to hide symptoms with a band
Speaker 2: aid and have to take pills for the rest of
Speaker 2: your life, but actually educate patients and teach them where
Speaker 2: their problems are coming from, and then they can help
Speaker 2: themselves because the power that made the body heals the body,
Speaker 2: and a lot of time the dysfunction can come from
Speaker 2: a vitamin D deficiency. So vitamin D deficiency will cause
Speaker 2: thyroid problems, and thyroid problems can cause depression. Low vitamin
Speaker 2: D levels will also call that seasonal affect disorder that
Speaker 2: will cause depression. When you have low vitamin D levels,
Speaker 2: that has been proven that you could be more likely
Speaker 2: to get Alzheimer's disease. So a lot of people come
Speaker 2: to me with brain fog. They didn't want to improve
Speaker 2: their memory, improve their focus. Most of these people are
Speaker 2: vitamin D deficient, So you gotta check your blood work
Speaker 2: and don't take vitamin D from CBS, Whole Foods, Vitamin
Speaker 2: Chop GNC. You don't want to go to these mass
Speaker 2: produced companies where things aren't done with good quality control,
Speaker 2: where it's more about the bottom line, which is the dollar.
Speaker 2: So they're trying to make a few extra bucks. They're
Speaker 2: not actually trying to reverse any of the neurologic or
Speaker 2: hormonal conditions. They just want you to keep buying their
Speaker 2: d just the business, all right. I am a functional doctor.
Speaker 2: My job is to get you healthy, all right, and
Speaker 2: that's why, you know, I share this information with you,
Speaker 2: and we have you know, tens of thousand listeners every
Speaker 2: single week that tune in to learn how to improve
Speaker 2: their own health and well being. All right. We don't
Speaker 2: need doctors and pills and all these tests to sell
Speaker 2: our health conditions. What we need is education. We need
Speaker 2: to learn how can I heal myself, whether it's through
Speaker 2: nutrition or physical exercise or stress reduction. We're not living
Speaker 2: a sedentary lifestyle or hydration, increasing your water, or getting
Speaker 2: better sleep, getting more sunlight, getting all your nutrients, having
Speaker 2: better relationships, making progress in your life. If you have depression,
Speaker 2: the most important thing is progression. If you have depression,
Speaker 2: the most important thing is progression. So make progression in
Speaker 2: your life. Make progress with your health, start eating better,
Speaker 2: make progress with exercise, all right. Instead of walking a
Speaker 2: mile a day, walk one point two miles a day.
Speaker 2: Instead of doing ten reps of your bicep curls, do
Speaker 2: eleven reps, instead of you know, lifting fifty pounds, lift
Speaker 2: sixty pounds, instead of you know, jogging at the number
Speaker 2: six on the treadmill. Jog at the number seven. You've
Speaker 2: got to make progression. You know, read more books, go
Speaker 2: to church or temple more, Give more charity progression, Get
Speaker 2: more money, get a promotion, get a better job, position progression.
Speaker 2: Volunteer more, give to more charities, give more compliments. Progression
Speaker 2: in every aspect of your life. Learn more, learn learn
Speaker 2: a new language, learn some new math skills. Learn how
Speaker 2: to garden, Learn how to change a flat tire, learn
Speaker 2: how to make a fire, learn how to clean water.
Speaker 2: Make progression in your life. Don't keep doing the same
Speaker 2: thing every week. That is depressing. But when you start
Speaker 2: making progression, you start getting rid of depression. Gotta check
Speaker 2: your vitamin D levels if you have depression. If your
Speaker 2: vitamin D levels are low, that can cause depression. You
Speaker 2: gotta stop being in the dark. We need more light
Speaker 2: and it's hard in the winter, so sometimes they might
Speaker 2: have to supplement, but that's why you do your blood work.
Speaker 2: Vitamin D is probably the only supplement you'll have to take.
Speaker 2: When I see people in twelve supplements and vitamins. That's
Speaker 2: an issue that's not health. People think that that's healthy.
Speaker 2: You say, oh, I'm not taking any medicine, but I'm
Speaker 2: taking twelve supplements. If you're truly healthy, you don't need
Speaker 2: to take any pills. If you're truly healthy, you don't
Speaker 2: need to see doctors. If you're truly healthy, you don't
Speaker 2: need X rays and MRIs and cat scans and pet
Speaker 2: scans and ultrasounds and mammograns and pap smears and colonoscopies
Speaker 2: and endoscopies. We don't need all these tests. Start living
Speaker 2: more natural, start living from the earth. We don't need
Speaker 2: all these pills. And if you're depressed, don't take anti depressants.
Speaker 2: Bump up your vitamin D levels, Start exercising more, make progression.
Speaker 2: Drink a lot of water with Celtic salt to get absorbed.
Speaker 2: Your brain is like a grape. When it gets dehydrated,
Speaker 2: it shrivels up to a raisin. That's going to lead
Speaker 2: to depression. And in the winter people usually drink less water.
Speaker 2: It's another reason they get more depressed. And then they
Speaker 2: eat a lot more sugar that causes depression. They drink
Speaker 2: a lot more alcohol that causes depression. So the winter
Speaker 2: is a recipe for depression. Less vitamin D, less sleep,
Speaker 2: less water, more sugar, more alcohol, more stress. That will
Speaker 2: cause depression. So start living a life of joy and
Speaker 2: love of happiness and exercise more, drink more water, eat
Speaker 2: healthier food, get more sunlight, get your vitamin D levels up,
Speaker 2: take a vacation, go down south, make progression, and you
Speaker 2: can reverse depression so you function better, feel better, and
Speaker 2: live a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan and

Speaker 2: is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
Speaker 2: brain power. Now. Don't believe the lie that memory gets
Speaker 2: worse with age. That is not true. Your memory can
Speaker 2: improve with age. All you have to do is exercise
Speaker 2: your brain. Your bones can get stronger with age. All
Speaker 2: you have to do is do weight resistant exercise. Your
Speaker 2: muscles can get stronger with age, You just got to
Speaker 2: start going to the gym. Your posture can get better
Speaker 2: with age. You have to do posture exercises. This is
Speaker 2: not rocket science. If you want your memory to improve
Speaker 2: with age, you have to do memory exercises. If you
Speaker 2: want your muscles to get stronger, you have to do weights.
Speaker 2: If you want your posture to improve, you have to
Speaker 2: do posture exercise. If you want more energy, you have
Speaker 2: to stop living a sedentary lifestyle. If you want your
Speaker 2: vision to improve, you have to do eye exercises. Anything
Speaker 2: in your life can prove, but you got to work
Speaker 2: for it. So if you want to improve your vision,
Speaker 2: the best exercise is called the Brock string exercise. The
Speaker 2: Brock string exercises these different colored beads that are attached
Speaker 2: to a string, and you look at one that's close
Speaker 2: to you, and then a little bit further and a
Speaker 2: little bit further, and you could literally exercise your eye muscles.
Speaker 2: L So don't listen to all these people that say, oh,
Speaker 2: as you get older, your vision gets worse. As you
Speaker 2: get older, you get more joy and pains. As you
Speaker 2: get older, your memory gets worse. Lies, lies, lies. I'm
Speaker 2: here to tell you the truth that you could get
Speaker 2: healthier as you get older, but you gotta do the work.
Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna do the work for you. Nobody cares about
Speaker 2: your health more than you. So if you want to
Speaker 2: get healthier, you gotta do the work. There's no doctor
Speaker 2: that's gonna save you. There's no pill that's gonna fix you.
Speaker 2: There's no injection that's going to create all your health
Speaker 2: and well being. There's no iv and all of a
Speaker 2: sudden improves every aspect of your health. There's no magic pill.
Speaker 2: Stop looking for it. You gotta do the work. You
Speaker 2: want want to improve your posture, you gotta do posture exercise.
Speaker 2: You want to improve your vision. Do vision exercise. You
Speaker 2: want to improve your memory, do memory exercise. There's a
Speaker 2: test called the Mocha Test MOCA. That's the standard test
Speaker 2: that all of us neurologists do to see if you
Speaker 2: have any predisposition to Alzheimer's dementia. It's out of thirty
Speaker 2: and you want to get twenty six out of thirty.
Speaker 2: If you get a twenty six out of thirty while
Speaker 2: taking this Mocha test, then your brain's doing okay. If
Speaker 2: you're less than twenty six, that's not good. That means
Speaker 2: you're already having some brain issues and that could lead
Speaker 2: to dementia Alzheimer's. Now, remember, an ounce of prevention is
Speaker 2: worth a pound of cure. So the three most important
Speaker 2: things to prevent Alzheimer's or dementia to improve your memory
Speaker 2: and focus are as follows. Number one novelty. You have
Speaker 2: to do new things every single day. Do something new
Speaker 2: that you've never done before. Number two is brain activation.
Speaker 2: You gotta challenge yourself. You gotta challenge your memory. Memorize
Speaker 2: people's phone numbers, memorize your grocery lists, memorize the address.
Speaker 2: Stop relying on Google and the GPS and YouTube for everything.
Speaker 2: Start using your brain. Start trying to use your memory more.
Speaker 2: Challenge yourself on purpose. Don't use all the technology. You
Speaker 2: don't want digital dementia where you get dumb because you're
Speaker 2: always relying on these smart devices. Start using your brain
Speaker 2: and start unplugging. Then you're gonna get stronger. And the
Speaker 2: third most important thing is fuel delivery. Good healthy diet.
Speaker 2: Making sure you eat each color of the rainbow, staying
Speaker 2: away from all the white foods, the sugar, the dairy,
Speaker 2: the wheat, the bread, the grains, process food stuff in
Speaker 2: boxes and cans and bags. Make sure you get your oxygen.
Speaker 2: Do your breathing exercise where you inhale for four seconds,
Speaker 2: hold your breath for seven seconds, exhale for eight seconds.
Speaker 2: Get your vitamin D get your sunlight, and then get
Speaker 2: your water. If your body weighing ounces, if you weigh
Speaker 2: two hundred pounds, you gotta drink one hundred ounces of
Speaker 2: water every single day. And you want to drink it
Speaker 2: on an empty stomach. And you want to put a
Speaker 2: pinch of Celtic salt so you get absorbed. You don't
Speaker 2: want to just drink the water and then pee it out.
Speaker 2: So those are the three most important things for your memory, novelty,
Speaker 2: doing new things, challenging your brain, exercising it, using your memory,
Speaker 2: and then giving a good fuel delivery, giving it the
Speaker 2: energy that it needs to function at the highest level.
Speaker 2: Those are the three most important things to improve your memory,
Speaker 2: and then natural and holistic way. Now, one of the
Speaker 2: things that you want to do is see am I
Speaker 2: predispose to a memory issue. So the Mocha test is
Speaker 2: your first test, and you could do that with a
Speaker 2: partner at home and just kind of test each other.
Speaker 2: There's different versions, version one or version two. Obviously you
Speaker 2: don't want to do you know, the same version over
Speaker 2: because the person who did the test the first time
Speaker 2: is going to do much better. So you do version one,
Speaker 2: version two tech text each other. If you're less than
Speaker 2: twenty six, you better give us a call here at
Speaker 2: KAPL and Brain and Body. We see people virtually now.
Speaker 2: We do it in our New Jersey offices, our New
Speaker 2: York offices. So make sure that you do this Mocha
Speaker 2: test to see how your memory is doing. Now, if
Speaker 2: you don't want to do that and you want to
Speaker 2: actually do a official neurologic test, the best test to
Speaker 2: check how your brain is function is called a q
Speaker 2: E brain mapping. During this test, you wear a cap
Speaker 2: and the cap has electrodes that attach to it, and
Speaker 2: these electrodes measure your brain waves, your alpha brain waves,
Speaker 2: your beta, theta, delta. Your alpha brain wave is just
Speaker 2: how you are normally during your regular daily routine. Your
Speaker 2: beta brain waves is when you need to really focus
Speaker 2: and think and you're studying, or you're giving a presentation,
Speaker 2: or you're speaking in front of an audience, or you're
Speaker 2: reading a book, or you're taking notes in a class.
Speaker 2: That's your beta. Your theta is when you're just daydreaming.
Speaker 2: You're in La la land, you're looking out the window,
Speaker 2: or you're just kind of out in the woods listening
Speaker 2: to the birds chirping and you're just kind of daydreaming off.
Speaker 2: That's your theta brain waves. And then your delta brain waves.
Speaker 2: That's when you're sleeping, when you're at rest, when everything
Speaker 2: needs to calm down and shut off. So this qEEG
Speaker 2: brain mapping measures all your different brain waves and based
Speaker 2: on the location of the abnormal brain waves will tell
Speaker 2: us why your brain isn't functioning right. I'll say, hey,
Speaker 2: this is gonna cause depression or anxiety. Where this will
Speaker 2: cause troubles with memory, whether it's long term memory, short
Speaker 2: term memory, whether it's your working memory. It's gonna say
Speaker 2: if you have sleep deprivation. It's gonna tell us do
Speaker 2: you have heavy metal poisoning, do you have a concussion,
Speaker 2: Do you have any pathogens in there? Do you have
Speaker 2: white matter inflammation. It's gonna measure whether you have low
Speaker 2: dopamine levels. It's gonna measure if you have low acetylcholine.
Speaker 2: It can even tell us if you have a thyroid problem,
Speaker 2: if you have intestinal inflammation. It can tell us you
Speaker 2: have a difficulty shifting task double motivation, balance problems, ringing
Speaker 2: in the ears, low energy. It literally analyzes your entire brain.
Speaker 2: It's non invasive, there's no radiation. It's normally five hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: But we're gonna give a gift to our listeners this week.
Speaker 2: For the first seven people to call, text or email,
Speaker 2: you could get this qEEG brain mapping for only twenty
Speaker 2: one dollars. The phone number to call or text is
Speaker 2: six four six two two one six seven three eight,
Speaker 2: or you can email info at kaplanbraininbody dot com. We're
Speaker 2: also gonna give another gift. It's called a VNG video nostography,
Speaker 2: And for this test, you wear these goggles and they
Speaker 2: have infrared cameras on them. They measure your different eye
Speaker 2: movements and right and left and up and down and
Speaker 2: slow and best and dark and light, all different directions,
Speaker 2: different speeds. It measures the imbalances of your ring and
Speaker 2: it tells us which parts of your brain are overactive,
Speaker 2: which could cause anxiety and stress and difficulty sleeping and
Speaker 2: heart palpitations and ADHD and the mind's racing and worry
Speaker 2: and anger and aggression, and where everything's just overactive. Or
Speaker 2: it'll tell us which areas of the brain are underactive.
Speaker 2: You might have brain fog, poor memory, fatigue, troubles with focus.
Speaker 2: You might have poor metabolism, difficulty losing weight, you might
Speaker 2: have vision problems, hearing problems. That's when everything's underactive. Now
Speaker 2: the V and G tells us, Okay, it's at the
Speaker 2: right side, is the left side? Which areas up? Which
Speaker 2: area is low? That's why I love this test. This
Speaker 2: test is also normally five hundred dollars, but the gift
Speaker 2: is for the first seven people to call, text or email.
Speaker 2: You could get the B and G also for only
Speaker 2: twenty one dollars. The number again is six four six
Speaker 2: two two one, six seven three eight, or you can
