Speaker 3 (00:17):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Caplan, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Now, an ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure. Now, how can you prevent diseases that

(00:39):
come from the brain. There's lots of different diseases, whether
it's Parkinson's, Alzheimer's dimension, a stroke, multiple sclerosis, depression, anxiety, insomnia, fatigue. Right,
most of these problems actually come from the brain. Even

(01:02):
high blood pressure that actually comes from the brain. How
come the cardiologists isn't analyzing the brain. When your brain
controls your blood pressure, your brain controls your heart rate.
So if you relax your brain, your blood pressure goes down.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
We have lots of.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Patients that come to us for high blood pressure and
then when we fix their brains, now their blood pressure
goes down. Now, the medication that they're taking for the
blood pressure overworks and they become under pressure. Right, so
instead of high blood pressure, it's low blood pressure. And
when they have low blood pressure, they get dizziness and

(01:46):
light headed, and they might come to me for dizziness
or lightheadedness, and then I actually say, hey, it's not
actually the brain that's the problem. Your brain is actually
functioning better. But because your brain is functioning better now,
the high blood pressure medication makes your blood pressure lower,

(02:09):
and that's not good. Same thing happens with diabetes. People
come to us with diabetes, and then as their brain
starts getting better, their pancreage starts working better, their nutrition improves,
they start going to bed earlier, they stop having a
less sedentary lifestyle. Now the diabetes medication, instead of becoming hyperglycemic,

(02:32):
makes you hypoglycemic, and then you get light headed and dizzy.
So a lot of the patients that come to us,
it's the medication that's causing their problem. Sometimes the cure
is worse than the condition. When we are helping people

(02:53):
that have thyroid problems and we fix their brain and
their body, now the thyruloid medication overworks and instead of
becoming instead of being hypothyroid, now they're hyperth thyroid, and
that's even worse. So we got to make sure we're

(03:14):
not over medicating. Sometimes what you feel isn't the actual
problem in your brain and your body, but it side
effects of medication. The healthiest people in the world take
the least medicine. The healthiest people in the world see

(03:34):
the least amount of doctors. The healthiest people in the
world take the least amount of tests. I pride myself
in doing as least testing as possible and try and
figure it out so I don't have to expose people
to unnecessary radiation. If I'm a good doctor, we don't

(03:57):
need to radiate the patients. We could discover the problems
without chemicals, without radiation, without contrast fluid. The rule of
a doctor is do no harm. It's the first rule,
do no harm. Why are so many doctors breaking those rules?

(04:20):
Radiation is harm. If you don't need to radiate, don't
radiate the patient. If you don't need to medicate, don't medicate.
And now we have all these over the counter stuff.
It's so easy for patients to get might be profit
and tail and all and aspirin and all these allergy
medications and sleeping medications and cold remedies, and oh my god,

(04:41):
there's so much medication. You don't even need a doctor's
prescription for this stuff. And this stuff is poison. You
could cause internal damage you're not even realizing. Just because
it's over the counter doesn't make it safe. I'm also
talking about supplements. The healthiest people in the world do

(05:04):
not take supplements. You don't need supplements if you're healthy.
The only supplement I take is vitamin D because I'm
inside during the day, you know. And I'm still trying
to figure that out, because why am I going inside

(05:25):
all day? You know? My hours are ten to five.
That's when I see patients. But it's all inside, and
that's when the sun's the strongest, from ten to five.
And I do that five days a week. So I'm
not getting the proper vitamin D. Nobody's perfect, but only

(05:45):
do it if you absolutely need it. If you don't
need it, don't take it. I'm sick of my patients
coming in on twelve twenty thirty forty supplements. That's not healthy.
Do you think God wants you to eat food from
this little pill? Or do you think God wants you

(06:06):
to use the sun use the air, use the water.
And the food that's on this earth so beautiful. All
the different colors, all the fruits and veggies, all the
different animals, and the nuts and the seeds, all the fish,
everything all on this earth. There's so much good, real
food out there. But it doesn't come in a pill

(06:30):
or a box or can or a bag. Health does
not come in a bottle. Don't think you're healthy if
you're taking anything in bottles. That's not true health. It's
not complicated. We complicate too much. We try and outsmart

(06:50):
the human body. Oh, stop outsmarting the human body. If
you have a temperature, your body's heating up to kill
off the virus. If you have a pain, your body's
letting you know something's wrong. If it's a headache, you're
not getting oxygen to your brain. If it's a chest pain,

(07:10):
you're not getting oxygen to your heart. If it's stomach pain,
you're not getting oxygen to your stomach and it might
be depleted. And when you don't have enough oxygen, that
means you have too much. Carbon dioxide and viruses. Bacteria
they love carbon dioxide. Parasites they love it, worms love it.

(07:37):
Yeast mold they love it, all these toxic substances. Cancer
loves it, diabetes loves it. They love that carbon dioxide.
So when you don't get oxygen, your brain's telling you
right when females are on their period, because they're losing

(07:57):
blood and oxygen. That's why a lot of them will
put hot packs. That helps me more blood and oxygen.
You get sore muscles, right, A lot of people do
a hot pack. Blood and oxygen. Acupuncture is for oxygen,
and blood massages for blood and oxygen, electrical stem blood

(08:20):
and oxygen, exercise, blood and oxygen. It's all about the
blood and oxygen. And when you don't have it, you're
gonna have a consequence, and a lot of times it's
just pain. That's why patients love our hyperbaric oxygen chambers,
which is increasing oxygen and the toxins can't live. That's

(08:43):
why breathing exercises are so important. More oxygen inhale for
four seconds, hold your breath for seven seconds, and exhale
for eight seconds. That's the breeding exercise that's gonna maximize
your oxygen. It's gonna get rid of your carbor dioxide.
It's gonna activate your vague nerve. It's my favorite breathing exercise.

(09:04):
Inhale for four seconds, hold your breath for seven, and
exhale for eight seconds. And on the inhale, if you
want to get a few extra oxygen molecules into those
lungs on that last second, take a big inhale, and
if you want a detox on that last exhale, push
it all the way out. Push push, push push. All right,

(09:26):
so you're gonna inhale for four seconds, hold your breath
for seven seconds, exhale for eight It's good to be
a diaphragmatic breather. A diaphramatic breather is when you inhale,
push your belly down and out. That's gonna push your
diaphragm down and out on the exhale. Everything comes in

(09:46):
on the inhale, diaphragm down and out. On the exhale,
diaphragm up and in. It's gonna squeeze that carbon dioxide
out and come from a giving nature. When you accel,
you are giving the plants the carbon dioxide they need
to thrive. Just like we need oxygen to thrive, they

(10:09):
need carbon dioxide to thrive. So every exhale you do,
you're giving the trees and the bushes, and the plants
and the grass, all the carbon dioxide they need to
function at highest level. So not only are you getting
rid of your toxins, our toxins are beneficial to them.
It's a symbiotic relationship. They're getting rid of their toxins,

(10:31):
which is oxygen, we're inhaling that. Then we're exhaling carbon dioxide,
which is good for them. It's unbelievable, you know. It's
like the water hydrates us, and then it keeps the
plants strong, and then it evaporates and then it comes
down again. It's like this ecosystem we live. It's only

(10:54):
it's too unreal to even imagine. This exists in the
human brain controls everything, and we're trashing it with alcohol,
with dairy, with gluten, with sugar, with coffee, with drugs.

(11:14):
We're killing our brains. You only get one brain. It's
the most important organ. Take care of it. Do the
right thing. Start cherishing your brain by listening to the
suggestions at this show. Your brain is going to function
at the highest level. Don't wait for your memory goes
bad to start working on it. Don't wait for you

(11:35):
to get depressed to start working on it or get anxious,
or to get parkinsins. Don't wait. An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure, but you have to
take action. Novelty is the most important thing to keep
your brain strong, so start doing new things to function better,
feel better, and live a better life. This is doctor

Speaker 3 (12:59):
Hello and come to boost your brain power. I'm your host,
doctor Eric Caplan. Now is the perfect time to get
into good habits. The best habit to begin is your
morning power hour. During the morning power Hour, you're gonna
get a lot of stuff done to start your day

(13:20):
off in a good way. The worst thing to do
is start your day off pressing the snooze alarm. That's
literally starting your day with a failure. So you set
an attention, I'm getting up at this time, and I
couldn't do it, all right, so don't press the snooze.
I follow Mel Robbins and she does the five second rule.

(13:43):
So your alarm goes off and you count down five four, three,
two one, then you jump out of bed. Once you
get out of bed, it's pretty easy to get your
day going. But it's easy to stay underneath your covers,
staying and warm, relax a little bit, but nope. Once

(14:04):
you set the alarm, time to get up. The first
thing you should do every single morning when you wake up,
it's called oil pulling. What oil pulling is is where
you take coconut oil. All right, it's morganic coconut oil.
Swish it around in your mouth for thirty seconds, so
you swish it all around. It's called oil pulling, and

(14:25):
try and squeeze it in between aill your teeth, use
your tongue, use a toothbrush if you need, but get
it all around your gums, your mouth, your teeth. What
Coconut oil is a natural antibiotic, and it kills off
all your bad bacteria in your oral microbiome, the bad

(14:46):
bacteria much better than listerine or mouthwash that has alcohol,
because the alcohol kills off the good bacteria, and we
want good bacteria in our mouth. It's called ooral mic
roll biome. Okay, So we want more good bacteria and
less bad bacteria. So you're gonna do oil pulling for

(15:07):
thirty seconds every single morning. Swish it around your mouth,
and then spit it out in the garbage. Don't put
it in the sink because that'll, you know, mess up
your pipes, So just spit it out in the garbage
and don't swallow it either, because you don't want to
swallow the bad bacteria. You want to get rid of
the bad bacteria. Okay, so that's thirty seconds. Then right

(15:29):
when you wake up, cold water on the face. Splash
your face with cold water. Okay. Then it's good to
go to the bathroom, have a bowel movement. You're in
a then I like to read part of my book.
So whatever it is, you can read one page, that's
all you gotta do. But at least it's something. If

(15:53):
you have time, read two pages, and if you have
even more time, read three pages. But every single day,
and hopefully it's like something that's helpful, like a self
help book or a motivational book, or a business book,
or a health book or a brain book, something that's
going to improve your health, your well being, your quality

(16:14):
of life. But you gotta read every day, even if
it's just one page. But get in that habit where
every day you read something. Okay, and you got to
do a gratitude journal, and I don't care if it's
just write one thing. I'm grateful for a roof up
over my head. I'm grateful for food being in my refrigerator.

(16:38):
I'm grateful for clothes on my back. I'm grateful for
my spouse or my kids, or my parents, or my friends,
or my neighborhood, or my job or my coworkers, or
the term I live in, or the city I live in,
or the country I live in. Just be thankful for something.
Be grateful for your life, for your health. Be grateful

(17:01):
that you could see. I see lots of blind patients
in my office. Be grateful that you can hear. There's
lots of people that are deaf. Be grateful you could walk,
lots of people in wheelchairs. Stop taking for granted stuff
that will create your happiness. You know, I heard this

(17:22):
one interview and the guy asks the person on the show.
He says, hey, would you be happy if they gave
you ten million dollars? And the guy's like, yep, I'd
be very happy. Be hard for someone to get you
in a bad mood if I just give you ten
million dollars And I goes, Yep, it'd be very tough
to get me in a bad mood after giving me

(17:43):
ten million dollars, I'd be really happy. But then the
interviewer goes, now, what if I gave you that ten
million dollars but you couldn't wake up the next day.
And the guy goes, no, I wouldn't take that ten
million dollars if I couldn't wake up the next step,
And so the inviewer says, so, what you're saying is

(18:06):
that waking up every morning is worth more than ten
million dollars, And the goes, yeah, I didn't even.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
Think of that perspective.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
So it goes, why don't you wake up every morning
like you just won ten million dollars. People don't do that.
They don't wake up every morning. He's like, oh, I
could see, I can eat, I could pee, I could poop,
I could walk, I could talk. Right, they don't say that.
They're not grateful for what you have. You have to
show gratitude. If you show gratitude, it's very hard to

(18:41):
be anxious. It's very hard to be stressed. Show gratitude
in your life. Every single morning when you wake up,
you at least write one thing and say it out loud.
I'm grateful, I have a dog, you know whatever. It is,
just be grateful for something every single day. Right, So

(19:04):
you wake up, you got your oil pulling, got your
cold water on your face, have your bowel movement, go peep,
read a page of your book. Write at least one
thing you're grateful for. Then write at least one goal
that you want to accomplish, either that day, that week,
or that year. I want to get a raise, I

(19:28):
want to make more money. I want to lose five pounds.
I want to get bigger muscles. I want to learn
a new language. I want to learn how to play
a musical instrument. I want to have a better relationship
with my wife. I want to get my kid something nice.

(19:50):
Just have a goal, spend ten minutes with my son something.
Have some goal that you're going to accomplish, and then
when you check it off, celebrate the small wins. Those
little check those small wins. Those release dopamine. We like dopamine.
But then when you have long term goals, long term relationship,

(20:13):
long term health habits, then it builds serotonin. That's the
mood stabilizer. So we want dopaminea those quick hits. We
want serotonin those long lasting neurotransmitters. We want oxytocin, the
love hormone. Start holding people's hands, start hugging people, kissing people.

(20:35):
Human touch is very important, and I don't care if
you get it with the dog. Also pet a dog,
cuddle with a dog. But have some sort of affection,
have some touch in your life. It's oxytocin, and you
get it from holding hands, you get it from hugging,

(20:57):
you get it from the sixth second from now on.
When you kiss your spouse in the morning, and hopefully
you do it instead of just kissing for one second,
kiss for six seconds. Then you release all those love hormones. Okay,
you could do it. You can get those endorphins going. Yeah,

(21:20):
that's when you go for a nice run that runners high.
Even a piece of dark chocolate could get the endorphins going.
Love relationships smiling, laughing. There's so many natural ways to
boost your brain. All right, getting back to the morning

(21:45):
power hour. Now it's time to meditate. And I don't
care if it's a thirty second meditation, but start meditating
every single day. I call it the relaxed technique. So
I start at the top of my head and I
say relax, and I relax all those muscles on the
top of my head. Then I say relax, and I

(22:06):
relax my forehead. Then I say relax, and I relax
my temples and relax my eyebrows, relax my eye lids,
relax my cheek, relax my jaw, relax my neck, my shoulders,
my back, my hips, my knees, go all the way
down to my toes. So I pick thirty spots. Each

(22:26):
spot is a second it's a thirty second meditation. Each spot.
You're just saying relax, relax. Internally, it's called a mantra. Relax, relax, relax.
Everybody could do thirty second meditation. That's your power hour.
You do it every single morning. So I don't care
if you read one page of a book, do a

(22:49):
thirty second meditation, write one thing in your gratitude journal.
Just do something every day. Do something every day to exercise.
I don't care if it's a ten second run down
your block. Just run down to the edge of your
block for ten seconds. But at leash you start breathing
a little heavy and your heart started beating and maybe

(23:11):
even a little sweat. But every day, do something active.
I don't care if it's ten pushups, ten sit ups,
ten jumping jacks, a ten second run, ten second bike,
just do something. If you got thirty seconds, do thirty seconds.
If you got a minute, do a minute. If you
got five minutes, do five minutes. But minimum do ten seconds.

(23:31):
Don't say oh, I don't have time to do a
ten second jumping jacks. Everybody's got ten seconds. But do something.
Move your body every single morning before you leave to
do your errands, to go to work, to go to school,
take your kids, run whatever you gotta do, but do
ten seconds of an exercise every single morning. It's all

(23:54):
about the consistency. And then get a meal prep. Don't
go your house without eating and without food prep. Because
you want organic food. You want healthy food. You want
colorful food. You want stuf full of dairy and sugar
and cheese and cream and boxes and cans and bags.
You want stuff with all these oils. You don't want
takeout food. You want real food from the earth, fruits, veggies, nuts, eggs, fish, chicken, turkey,

(24:23):
real food from the earth. Stop eating all this processed
crap with food dies, artificial sweetness, artificial flavors. You want
one ingredient food. So prep every morning. If you do
all these things every morning, you food prep, you exercise,
you gratitude, you read right, you cold water on your face,

(24:44):
you oil pull, you go to the bathroom, You write
down in your journal, you write your goals down. Then
you are gonna conquer the day. But if you press
your snooze alarm and you sleep in, you start off
your day with a failure. So start doing morning power
hour so you could function better, feel better, and live

(25:05):
a better life. This is doctor Eric Caplan and you're
listening to boost your brain power.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
If you want to improve your brain function, help with memory, focus, sleep, digestion, energy, depression, anxiety, dizziness, balance, vision, headaches,
brain fog, weight loss, or simply want to maximize your
human potential and prevent future diseases, that this is the
show for you. Don't misboost your brain power with doctor
Eric Caplan and you will learn natural, integrative and holistic

(25:35):
approaches to modern day medical problems such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's stroke, autism,
add concussion, autoimmune diseases, insomnia, fibromyalgia, vertigo, migraines, four posture pain, TBI,
skin and digestive problems. Doctor Caplin is most famous for
getting to the root cause of a wide variety of
brain and health conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional

(25:58):
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact the Doctor Kamplin, you
can call his team at two O one two six
one two one five zero or visit his website at
kaplindc dot com.

Speaker 4 (26:10):
Function better, feel better and live a better life.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
This is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost
your brain power now, in your lifetime. You're only allowed
a certain amount of radiation before your body shuts down.
And when it shuts down, it could actually create cancer.

(26:38):
You can get sick, can mess up your immune system,
on immune disease. It could create a lot of inflammation.
So we're only allowed a certain amount of radiation in
our lifetime, so you have to limit it as much
as you can. And there's lots of areas where you

(27:01):
could limit right, so you can, you know, not get
so many dental X rays. You cannot stand in Starbucks
for so long. When you're in Starbucks, it's like you're
in a microwave because all the Wi Fi, all the radiation.

(27:22):
Everyone's on their data planes, everyone's on their five G
they're just hanging out there. They're on their computers and
their cell phones and their iPads. There's a lot of
radiation when people just hanging out all in this one
little coffee shop there. The airplanes have lots of radiation.
You gotta limit your flying. Start driving more right, so

(27:46):
you know when you go to the airport, get the
pat down. You know when you go to the doctor.
Don't always do all these X rays and catscans and
pet scans. It's a lot of radiation. It's everywhere. Your
microwave that's radiation. Your cell phone that's radiation. You should

(28:13):
always have your cell phone minimum six inches away from
you at all times, and at night you want it
six feet away from you. Then all these little bluetooth
devices they have radiation. You know, the AirPods for your
ears to listen to your music, the Apple watches, you know,

(28:36):
these little devices, the are devices, the swoop, you know
these things. They measure your whatever it is, your respiration
and your heart rate and your sleeping patterns. But you're
radiating your body. You got to limit your radiation. Stay

(28:59):
away from electricity towers, stay away from cell phone towers,
stay away from the big cities. There's a website, I
think it's antennas dot com. You could go and you
could see how much antennas are near you, how many

(29:21):
cell phone towers are near you, So you could see
are you exposed to a lot of radiation? And you
put it well within two miles, like how many towers
are near me. It's pretty scary. You go into the
middle of the country, you know you're in Kansas or

(29:41):
you know, Idaho or someplace like that. There's very low
amount of antennas and towers and stuff like that. You
go towards the suburbs, it's a lot more, and then
when you go in the inner city it's ridiculous. So

(30:01):
when you're in the inner city, it's just like a
you're just constantly being radiated because there's so many people
using all these devices, so many five G towers close together,
so many electricity towers, there's so many antennas, there's so
many you know, these boxes, there's so much Wi Fi.

(30:27):
There's so much five G. I mean, it's crazy amount
of radiation. So the more in seclusion you are, the
more open space you are, the more in nature you are,
the less radiation. You might have to think about moving

(30:47):
out of the big city if you don't want all
this radiation. Okay, so you gotta make good decisions. You
have to make healthy decisions. If you're on your cell phone,
don't hold it next to your ear. Get a wire

(31:13):
headphone set, not a bluetooth device, but wire old school.
Keep your phone six inches away from you, so you
could be with your phone six inches away from you,
have the wire connected and still talk and not get

(31:35):
the radiation. If you are talking on your phone and
your phone is near you just turn off the Wi Fi.
You don't need the Wi Fi, so don't add extra radiation.
Only use your Wi Fi when you actually need it.

(31:56):
You're downloading something, you're you know, on the internet. You know,
there's not a good cell phone signal, but your Wi
Fi should be off most of the day. It's only
when you don't have your cell phone signal, and then
turn off your five G. Most cell phones have a
setting where you could turn off five G and only

(32:17):
use three G or four G, so they have a
The regular landline is one G, you know, and that's
when I was growing up. You'd have the phone that
was attached to the wall with the long wire that
is one G. Then they invented the portable phones that's
without a wire at all, but you still need a

(32:40):
landline connection into the base. That's two G. Then the
cell phones were invented where you don't need any plug.
They're just using the signals there. That's three G. Then
we started using you know, all the stuff for the
Internet and stuff. Then it became four G, and now

(33:01):
we're up to five G because they've won all this
super speed, you know, to me three gene. Four G
were plenty fast. Five G is not that much faster.
We don't need five G. It's just more radiation. So
that's not good. And they're building these towers everywhere, and
they build them usually you know, by the I know

(33:22):
in New Jersey they're at the police stations and the
firehouses and the schools and near all these government buildings.
I wouldn't be surprised, you know if a few years
from now, we're gonna see all these police and firemen
and all these jobs that are right next to the
five G towers start to get a little sick because

(33:43):
it's a lot of radiation. You know, we're gonna be
very very careful. Don't use your microwave oven. That's radiation.
Microwaves are not safe, and they kill all your food.
They kill water. If you microwave water and then try
and use that water for your plants or something like that,

(34:06):
those plants will die. You don't utilize the nutrients if
you microwave your food. And if you use plastics, even
if it says microwaveable safe, it's not. Those plastics are
leaking into the food. The plastics in the water bottles,

(34:28):
they leak into the water. Stop using plastic, and definitely
don't cook in the microwave with the plastic. The average
American eats about a credit card size worth a plastic
every year. We got to stop eating the plastics. They're
endocrine disruptors. They mess up your hormones. It goes you
to gain weight. You want to lose weight. Stop using

(34:50):
plastic water bottles. Start using glass and stainless steel. Store
all your food in glass or stainless steel. Cook with
stainless steel. Don't use aluminum pans or a taflon or a
non stick. Use stainless steel, all right. Don't use aluminum

(35:16):
foil to cook with. Don't wrap stuff in aluminum foil.
You can use the parchment paper, you know, those old
school brown paper. You know. We have to start thinking,
how can I reduce my radiation? How can I reduce

(35:36):
my heavy metals, How can I reduce my chemical exposure?
How can I reduce my plastics? Start making healthy decisions.
There's so much stuff that you have no control over.
So the stuff that you do have control over, start
utilizing it. You gotta use glass for plastic, stainless steel

(36:03):
over aluminum. Make better decisions. Turn off your Wi Fi,
turn off the five G. Don't take so many X
rays and cat scans and pet scans. The pet scans
have the most radiation out of all of them. Don't
always do these mammograms for your breasts. If you want

(36:25):
to check, do thermography, do digital use your hands. Just
feel your breasts every day. Same thing for the men.
Feel your testicles, feel your skin. You'll know what's good
and what's not good. You gotta be old school doctors.
Do a prostate exam. You don't necessarily need to do

(36:48):
MRIs and use those contrasts fluid. Okay, there's so many natural, holistic,
easy ways to analyze your health without using radius, and

Speaker 3 (38:18):
This is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening.

Speaker 4 (38:23):
To boost your brain power.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
Now. Don't believe the lie that memory gets worse with age.
That is not true. Your memory can improve with age.
All you have to do is exercise your brain. Your

(38:48):
bones can get stronger with age. All you have to
do is to wait resistant exercise. Your muscles can get
stronger with age. You just got to start going to
the gym. Your posture can get better with age. You

(39:15):
have to do posture exercises. This is not rocket science.
If you want your memory to improve with age, you
have to do memory exercises. If you want your muscles
to get stronger, you have to do weights. If you
want your posture to improve, you have to do posture exercise.

(39:39):
If you want more energy, you have to stop living
a sedentary lifestyle. If you want your vision to improve,
you have to do eye exercises. Anything in your life
can improve, but you got to work for it. So
if you want to imp your vision, the best exercise

(40:04):
is called the Brock string exercise. The Brock string exercises
these different colored beads that are attached to a string,
and you look at one that's close to you, and
then a little bit further and a little bit further,
and you can literally exercise your eye muscles. So don't

(40:26):
listen to all these people that say, oh, as you
get older, your vision gets worse. As you get older,
you get more joint pains, as you get older, your
memory gets worse. Lies, lies, lies. I'm here to tell
you the truth that you could get healthier as you
get older, but you gotta do the work. Nobody's going

(40:51):
to do the work for you. Nobody cares about your
health more than you. So if you want to get healthier,
you gotta do the work. There's no doctor that's gonna
save you. There's no pill that's going to fix you.
There's no injection that's going to create all your health
and well being. There's no IV and all of a

(41:14):
sudden improves every aspect of your health. There's no magic pill.
Stop looking for it. You gotta do the work you want.
Want to improve your posture, you gotta do posture exercise.
You want to improve your vision, do vision exercise. You

(41:34):
want to improve your memory, do memory exercise. There's a
test called the Mocha Test MOCA. That's the standard test
that all of us neurologists do to see if you
have any predisposition to Alzheimer's or dementia. It's out of

(42:02):
thirty and you want to get twenty six out of thirty.
If you get a twenty six out of thirty while
taking this Mocha test, then your brain's doing okay. If
you're less than twenty six, that's not good. That means
you're already having some brain issues and that could lead
to dementia Alzheimer's. Now, remember, an ounce of prevention is

(42:28):
worth a pound of cure. So the three most important
things to prevent Alzheimer's or dementia to improve your memory
and focus are as follows. Number one, novelty, You have
to do new things every single day. Do something new

(42:49):
that you've never done before. Number two is brain activation.
You gotta challenge yourself. You gotta challenge your memory. Memorize
people's phone numbers, Memorize your grocery lists, memorize the address.
Stop relying on Google and the GPS and YouTube for everything.

(43:14):
Start using your brain. Start trying to use your memory more.
Challenge yourself on purpose. Don't use all the technology. You
don't want digital dementia where you get dumb because you're
always relying on these smart devices. Start using your brain

(43:36):
and start unplugging. Then you're gonna get stronger. And the
third most important thing is fuel delivery. Good healthy diet,
making sure you eat each color of the rainbow, staying
away from all the white foods, the sugar, the dairy,
the wheat, the bread, the grains. Process food stuff in
boxes and cans and bags. Make sure you get your

(43:57):
oxygen to your breathing exercise where you're in for four seconds,
hold your breath for seven seconds, exhale for eight seconds.
Get your vitamin D, get your sunlight, and then get
your water. If your body weighing ounces, if you weigh
two hundred pounds, you gotta drink one hundred ounces of
water every single day, and you want to drink it

(44:18):
on an empty stomach, and you want to put a
pinch of Celtic salt so you get absorbed. You don't
want to just drink the water and then pee it out.
So those are the three most important things for your memory.
Novelty doing new things, challenging your brain, exercising it, using

(44:39):
your memory, and then giving a good fuel delivery, giving
it the energy that it needs to function at the
highest level. Those are the three most important things to
improve your memory in a natural and holistic way. Now,

(44:59):
one of the of things that you want to do
is see am I predispose to a memory issue? So
the Mocha test is your first test, and you could
do that with a partner at home and just kind
of test each other. There's different versions, version one or
version two. Obviously you don't want to do, you know,
the same version over because the person who did the

(45:22):
test the first time is going to do much better.
So you do version one, version two, tech text each other.
If you're less than twenty six, you better give us
a call here at CAPL and Brain and Body, we
see people virtually now we do it in our New
Jersey offices, our New York offices. So make sure that
you do this mocha test to see how your memory

(45:43):
is doing. Now, if you don't want to do that
and you want to actually do a official neurologic test,
the best test to check how your brain is function
is called a qEEG brain mapping. During this test, you
wear a cap and the cap has electrodes that attach
to it, and these electrodes measure your brain waves, your

(46:05):
alpha brain waves, your beta, theta, delta. Your alpha brain
wave is just how you are normally during your regular
daily routine. Your beta brain waves is when you need
to really focus and think and you're studying, or you're
giving a presentation, or you're speaking in front of an audience,

(46:26):
or you're reading a book, or you're taking notes in
a class. That's your beta. Your theta is when you're
just daydreaming. You're in La la land, you're looking out
the window, or you're just kind of out in the
woods listening to the birds chirping and you're just kind
of day dreaming off. That's your theta brain waves. And

(46:48):
then your delta brain waves that's when you're sleeping when
you're at rest, when everything needs to calm down and
shut off. So this qEEG brain mapping measures all your
different brain waves and based on the location of the
abnormal brain waves, will tell us why your brain isn't

(47:09):
functioning right. I'll say, hey, this is gonna cause depression
or anxiety. Where this will cause troubles with memory, whether
it's long term memory, short term memory, whether it's your
working memory. It's gonna say if you have sleep deprivation.
It's gonna tell us do you have heavy metal poisoning,
Do you have a concussion, Do you have any pathogens

(47:31):
in there? Do you have white matter inflammation. It's gonna
measure whether you have low dopamine levels. It's gonna measure
if you have low acetylcholine. It can even tell us
if you have a thyroid problem, if you have intestinal inflammation.
It can tell us you have a difficulty shifting, task
trouble motivation, balance problems, ringing in the ears, low energy.

(47:53):
It literally analyzes your entire brain. It's non invasive, there's
no radiation. It's normally five hundred dollars. But we're gonna
give a gift to our listeners this week for the
first seven people to call text or email you could
get this qEEG brain mapping for only twenty one dollars.

(48:16):
The phone number to call our text is six four
six two two one six seven three eight, or you
can email info at Kaplan braininbody dot com. We're also
going to give another gift. It's called a VNG Video nostography.

(48:37):
And for this test, you wear these goggles and they
have infrared cameras on them. They measure your different eye
movements and right and left and up and down and
slow and best and dark and light, all different directions,
different speeds. It measures the imbalances of your brain, and
it tells us which parts of your brain are overactive,

(48:58):
which could cause anxiety and stress and difficulty sleeping and
heart palpitations and ADHD and the mind's racing and worry
and anger and aggression and where everything's just overactive. Or
it'll tell us which areas of the brain are underactive.
You might have brain fog, poor memory, fatigue, troubles with focus,

(49:25):
you might have poor metabolism, difficulty losing weight, you might
have vision problems, hearing problems. That's when everything's underactive. Now,
the V and G tells us Okay, it's at the
right side, is the left side? Which areas up? Which
area is low? That's why I love this test. This
test is also normally five hundred dollars, but the gift

(49:47):
is for the first seven people to call, text or email.
You could get the B and G also for only
twenty one dollars. The number again is six four six
two two one six seven three eight, or you can
email info at kaplanbrainebody dot com. And the last gift

(50:07):
is a one on one evaluation with me where I
go over the qEEG brain mapping, I go over the VNG,
we go over your blood work. We check out your heart,
your lungs, we check out your gut, your memory, the
Mocha test. We check out your balance, your posture, your vision,
