Speaker 3 (00:17):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power? Are you aware that stress is one of
the biggest health threats in today's world. According to the
American Psychological Association, nearly seventy seven percent of people regularly

(00:43):
experience stress related physical symptoms. You know, the most common
reason people call out of work is back pain, But
most of that back pain is caused by stress, and
it could even lead to headaches, fatigue, muscle pain. So
we have to reduce our stress levels so we can

(01:05):
function at a higher level and be more product of
at work, more productive at school, so we have a
higher quality of life. Stress is the silent killer. It
leads to heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and even cancer.
Right people are always looking for the cure for cancer.

(01:28):
They're never going to find the cure for cancer, but
what they will have to find is how to reduce stress.
Because if you could reduce stress, then you prevent it
from ever occurring in the first place. Most people don't
realize it's caused by stress because they focus on just

(01:48):
the treatment, which is usually chemotherapy or radiation. But not
only do you want to cure the cancer, you want
to figure out what caused it. Same thing with stroke
or heart attack. The most common cause is stress. So

(02:09):
rather than just taking high blood pressure medication, maybe we
start reducing our stress levels. That's why Monday morning is
the most common time for heart attack or stroke. It's
because people are under high stress and it even leads

(02:30):
to Alzheimer's disease. There's so many patients that come to
me with memory problems, and they all say their memory
gets worse when they're stressed. Even leads to diabetes. I'm
working with this Japanese pharmaceutical company whose found this vague

(02:52):
nerve stimulator which is reversing diabetes. Now they need to
figure out why this vegas nerve stimulator is working, and
I'm there to help them to figure out, Okay, is
it affecting the vegas nerve, so we do pretests and

(03:14):
post tests, but they're actually looking for a cure. In America,
they don't want the cure. They want you to have
diabetes so you keep taking their drugs. So some of
these pharmaceutical companies are evil. They're not looking out for
your health. They're looking to make a profit. So the

(03:35):
advice you're gonna get it's going to keep your diabetes.
That's why they have the food pyramid. Why it's full
of grains. Eat a lot of cereal and rice and
potatoes and bread and pasta. There's something like sixteen servings
a day they want you to eat. Come on, that's
a recipe for diabetes. And diabetes is one of the

(03:57):
leading causes of Alzheimer's disease. They're all linked. Now, stress
is unavoidable, but it's how you handle the stress, right,
So if you can handle the stress better, it's not
going to have a physical manifestation. And have you handle
your stress better, well, maybe you have to exercise, maybe

(04:23):
you have to go to bed earlier, Maybe you have
to get out of a bad relationship. Maybe you have
to leave a bad job, leave a bad living situations,
move out of a stressful city, sometimes you have to
break up with a family member or a loved one.

(04:46):
Maybe you need a vacation right. Maybe you need to
drink more water. Maybe you need to have less negative
people around you. Maybe you need to to work harder
so you could earn a better living so you could
pay for your lifestyle. Maybe need to pray more. Maybe

(05:09):
you need to give more, volunteer more, give to more charities.
Find what's going to reduce your stress levels, because stress
is the silent killer. You know. Stress doesn't just impact
your mood and reads havoc on your body. When you're

(05:30):
under stress, your body releases cortisol. That's the stress hormone
that's on your adrenal gland, which sits on top of
your kidneys, so it can affect your kidneys. You can
have kidney infections from stress. You could get stomach ulcers
from stress. You could get heart attacks from stress. Stress

(05:59):
is the silent killer you don't know it's called. It's
by stress. Cortisol when it's stimulated will mess with your sleep.
So if you have insomnia or sleep deprivation or fatigue,
it could be because you're in stress mode. Your cortisol
level is too high and you're not getting in the
deep sleep, you're not getting in your circadium rhythms. So

(06:24):
you don't want to be at night watching the news
that's gonna increase your cortisol. News is very stressful. You
want to be at night watching you know, with Law
and Order Special Victims Unit where they're talking about rapes.
That's not gonna get you a good night's sleep. You
don't want to watch, you know, The Walking Dead or

(06:49):
whatever that is where you're about zombies. I think you're
gonna get a good night's sleep if you if you
watch a zombie apocalypse right before bed. You don't want
to watch all these murder mysteries right before bed, or
World War two documentaries about Hitler killing everybody. Be aware

(07:15):
of what you listen to, what you read, what you watch,
because if you are watching or listening to a reading
stressful stuff, that's what you're gonna dream about. That's what
your whole night's gonna be. They need to create more
stress when you're supposed to be in a relaxed state.

(07:35):
Cortisol will miss up your circadium rhythms. What we want
is to have high cortisol in the morning when we
wake up and low cortisol at night when we're relaxing
and sleeping. Most people are the opposite. Their cortisol levels
are too high at night because that night they're watching TV,
they're checking their cell phone, they're eating, they're snacking, the

(07:57):
lights are on. Level is gonna be high, Anxiety is
gonna be high. If you have caffeine, that's gonna increase it. Coffee, energy, drinks, sodas.
If you have high stress and you increase caffeine in
your system, that's gonna make it worse. You can get

(08:19):
more cortisol, more adrenal activation. So you gotta stay away
from stimulants. So caffeine's a stimulant. Sugars are stimulant. Artificial flavors, preservatives,
those are all stimulants, bread as stimulants, pasta, all those

(08:40):
starchy carbs. Stay away from them. If you're trying to
reduce stress and anxiety, the more cortisol and more stress
you have, the more inflammation, and when you have inflammation,
that could literally shorten your lifespan. Inflammation is the most

(09:01):
common factor of all diseases, whether it's heart disease, cancer, diabetes,
Alzheimer's on immune disease. I don't care what it is.
It's all inflammation. There's two natural products which reduce inflammation.
The best one is risi vertrol that's in Japanese, not

(09:23):
weed and the skin of red grapes. Then you can
also get tumeric that's also a natural anti inflammatory. It's
got curcumen what's going to bring down inflammation. So those

(09:45):
are the best natural anti inflammatories. Also omega threes like
fatty fish oils. If you have fish, make sure they're
small fish such as sardines, salmon, mackerel, herring. And if
you do have fish, make sure it's from the Atlantic, Norwegian,

(10:06):
Icelandic Mediterranean. Don't get fish from the Pacific. The Pacific
Ocean has nuclear radiation from Japan for over a dozen years.
The whole ocean is radiated. Make sure when you get fish,
get wildfish, not farmed raised. The bigger the fish, the

(10:29):
more mercury. We don't want mercury. There's mercury in your
dental fillings. You gotta be careful of mercury and the fish.
The old thermometers have mercury. Mercury will cause more inflammation.
Aluminum causes inflammation, so don't use aluminum foil. Use the
parchment paper, don't use aluminum pans, use stainless steel, use

(10:56):
glass to store things in. Don't use plastic either. Those
are endocrine disruptors, all right. So we don't want to
have more inflammation by increasing cortisol, increasing heavy metals, increasing stress.

(11:16):
All right. So we want to make sure we decrease stress.
And that might be being social, hanging out with some friends,
playing some sports, working out, going on vacation, reading a
good book, listening to some music, going for a walk,
getting some sunlight, going and breathing some oxygen, getting a dog.

(11:41):
There's so many ways to reduce stress. You can meditate,
practice mindfulness, do yoga, pilates, go to a concert, take
a class, an art class, a sculpting class, learn how
to cook. So many ways to reduce your stress, bring

(12:02):
down cortisol, and improve the function of your body so
that you perform at the highest levels. So there's natural, holistic,
and integrative ways to improve your body's function through process
called neuroplasticity, to rewire your brain so you function better,

(12:26):
feel better, and live a better life. This is doctor
Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your brain power.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
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 mis boost your brain power with
doctor Eric Kaplan and you will learn natural, integrative, and

(12:58):
holistic approaches to mud and 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 Kamplin
is most famous for getting to the root cause of
a wide variety of brain and health conditions, rather than

(13:20):
treating symptoms with traditional medicines and risky surgeries. To contact
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 3 (13:34):
Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. There are four major stresses in today's world.
The first stress is physical stress that includes sitting at
a desk all day. You know Most people sit all day.

(13:58):
They wake up, they sit at the breakfast table, eat
their breakfast. Then they sit at the car or on
the bus on their way to work. Then they sit
at the computer all day of work. Then they sit
at the lunch table. Then they sit more at work
at the computer. Then they come home and sit at
the dinner table. Then they go sit and the couch
and watch Netflix. It's like sitting all day. And then

(14:18):
the weekend comes and then they sit at the bar,
they sit at the restaurant, they sit at the movie theater,
they sit at the play. Everything's sitting. Even the social
events are sitting. Start choosing activities that get you off
your butt. Maybe a sport, Maybe take a dance class,
Maybe take some martial art class, maybe even learning a

(14:44):
musical instrument. Right, you can move your body. Try and
find stuff where you're moving your body. Take a tai
chi class. Doesn't have to be strenuous, but move your body.
Move it or you'll lose it. Sitting is the new smoking.

(15:04):
So you got to get off your butt and move
your body. Find some activity that you like to do
if you want to reduce your stress, if you don't
mind being stressed out, low energy, heart disease, diabetes, obesity,
Alzheimer's cancer. If you don't mind that, then sit all day.

(15:24):
But if you want to prevent that, then you gotta
get off your butt. An ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure. So start finding something that gets
you active, maybe even with a person that holds you
accountable so that you could be workout partners. But you
gotta do something to move your body right. Sitting is

(15:47):
the worst, so follow the twenty rule. The twenty rule
is every twenty minutes, you get up for twenty seconds
and move your body. You could just take twenty steps,
you could do twenty jumping jacks, twenty push ups, twenty
sit ups, twenty squats, twenty lunges. I don't care what
it is, but move your body for twenty seconds, and

(16:10):
then you could go back to work or school or
studies or whatever you're doing. But you got to set
an alarm because you're not gonna remember to get up
every twenty minutes, all right, So make sure that you
get up every twenty minutes. That's the twenty rule. And
for your eyes, look twenty feet away. You know, if

(16:31):
we're always looking at the screens, that's not gonna be good.
So look far away, look out the window, look at
the trees, look at the buildings, look at the skyline,
look at something far away. To exercise your eyes. All right,
So that's the first major stressure, is physical stress. So

(16:54):
less sitting at the desk. The twenty rule. Work on
your posture. Almost everyone's souch is forward, doing shoulder rolls.
Start looking up and rolling your shoulders back. Even just
doing sitting to standing where you just stand up, look
up and reach up, and sit down and stand up,
look up and reach up. We're always looking down. That's
not good for our posture. Start looking up. Look up

(17:16):
into the sky, up into the heavens, Look up into
the sun, up into the moon, up into the clouds.
Look up, look at the birds chirping. Look at the
top of the trees, look at the top of the buildings.
It's beautiful up there. A lot of times it's more
beautiful up than it is down. So look at that

(17:40):
beautiful world, that universe up in the sky. Look at
the stars, look at the meteors and the asteroids and
the shooting stars, and the planet. You can see the
you can literally see Mars. It looks red out there.
Venus is really bright. You could literally see the plan,

(18:00):
but you gotta look up. And that's good for your
physical stress. That's good for your posture. You want to
become one of those old ladies or old men that
are all hunched over, you don't know, to build arthritis
and degenerate. And it's good for your mood. What if
someone who's depressed and said they're always looking down bad posture.

(18:23):
Someone who has high energy, someone who's happy, their chins up,
they better posture. Work on your physical stress is no.
Don't do repetitive stress. So if you always use the
mouse with your right hand, use the mouse with your
left hand. I don't care what your job is or

(18:45):
whatever you do. If you always wear your bag on
the right shoulder, wear it on the left shoulder. If
you brush your teeth with your right hand, brush your
teeth with your left hand. Start switching it up. Don't
do repetitive movements over and over and over again. If
you always stand on the right, stand on the left,
switch it up. You always sleep on the right side,

(19:11):
try to sleep on the left side. The monitors usually
to the right. Now put it to the left, switch
it up. Keep things balanced from right to left. Don't
always do things on one side that creates more physical stress.
Those are imbalances, Those are disconnect The second major stress

(19:32):
in today's world is emotional stress that can come from work, relationship, finances,
and now social media. People get so stressed because they
look at social media and they see, Oh, everyone's so
rich and they're traveling to these great places, and they
look so good and their lives so happy, and everything's perfect, perfect, perfect.

(19:54):
Those are all lies. Everyone just puts out the best
part of their lives, and then everyone else thinks that
that's their lives, and then they feel like they're too poor,
or they don't have enough friends, or they're not as beautiful.

(20:15):
So it makes everyone else look bad. So we got
to unplug from social media because it creates more emotional stress.
And then if you put something on social media and
you don't get a like or a comment, you get depressed.
When you do get a like right away, it releases dopamine.

(20:37):
It's like a drug. Social media is the new drug.
It's like taking a line of cocaine, Like, Oh, I
need those likes, I need those comments, I need those friends,
I need those views. Could create a lot of emotional
stress and start having some good relationships. You are who

(21:00):
you hang out with. If you're around a negative person,
you're gonna become negative. Get negative people out of your lives,
and they When you hang out with a negative person,
they'll make you negative. They'll make everyone around them negative.
Whoever you hang out with, that's who you'll be. If

(21:21):
you hang out with negative people, you'll be negative. If
you hang out with unhealthy people, you'll be unhealthy. If
you hang out with poor people, you'll be poor. If
you hang out with sad people, you'll be sad. But
do the opposite. If you hang out with happy people,

(21:45):
you'll be happier. If you hang out with rich people,
you'll be richer. If you hang out with positive people,
you'll be more positive. If you hang out with healthy people,
you will improve your health. So start hanging out with
people that you aim to be. You know, one of

(22:07):
my mentors always said, you know, if you're the smartest
one in the room, you better find a new room.
So if you want to learn, then you be the
dumbest person in the room and you be around smart people.
You don't want to be the smartest person in the room.
You want to be the dumbest person in the room
so you can learn from everybody around you. You don't

(22:28):
want to be the richest person in the room. You
want to be the poorest person in the room so
you can learn from the rich people around you. You
want to be more spiritual. Hang out with people who
go to church every week. It's not rocket science. You're
going to learn from those around you. You want to

(22:51):
give to more charity, Start hanging out with people that volunteer,
and then you'll start doing more charity. You are who
you hang around with. If you run negative people, you
get negative emotions. Negative emotions triggle trigger physical symptoms such
as headaches, trouble sleeping, even high blood pressure just from negativity.

(23:16):
So that's the emotional stress. The third stress is the
electromagnetic radiation. We get so much radiation from the computers,
these smart devices, our cell phones. Start to unplug, turn
off Wi Fi in your house, use the Ethernet cable,
turn off five G on your cell phone, put everything
on airplane mode. We don't need all this radiation. I

(23:41):
didn't notice the difference once they put up all these
five G towels. It's not like, oh, the Internet's so fast,
doesn't make any sense. We don't need all this fast internet.
Everything's fine a three G. So turn everything off. Turn
off your cell phone, unplug your devices. Don't use all
these bluetooth, don't use these earbuds. Reduce your radiation. Reduce

(24:06):
the X rays. You don't have to get an X
ray every time you go to the dentist. You don't
need to take all these pet scans and cat scans
at the hospitals. You don't need all these mammograms and ultrasounds.
There's all radiation. Reduce your electromagnetic radiation stress. And the
last stress is biochemical stress that's caused by processed foods, pesticide,

(24:33):
heavy metals, toxins, and beauty and cleaning products, so many chemicals,
all the plastics. The worst is suntime lotion, so worst chemicals.
Everyone's so scared of the sun. The sun is great.
It gives us vitamin D, helps our thyroid, our immune system,

(24:55):
helps our mood, our brain, our memory. So I'm gonna
block the sun. No, take off the sunglasses, stop wearing
suntan lotion. You know, unless you have a history of
skin cancer, that's different. That's between you and your doctor.
But for most people We need sun exposure. We need
vitamin D and the sun needs to hit your eyes.

(25:17):
So if you're wearing contacts or glasses or sunglasses, you're
blocking the light. If you're inside, you're not getting the sun.
It needs to enter that black pupil in the middle
of your eye. That's a hole, but the sun needs
to go in there to get your optimal vitamin D.
So go outside, roll up your pant legs, roll up
your sleeves, take off your glasses, take off your hat.

(25:39):
Expose yourself to some sunlight when it's most strong between
twelve and two even if it's just twenty minutes a day,
to increase your vitamin D so you function better, feel better,
and live a better life. This is doctor Eric Kplam

this is Doctor eric caapp and you're listening to boost
your brain. Power the pharmaceutical industry wants you to believe

(27:08):
that the only way to manage stress is with. Pills
so they're gonna give you anti anxiety. Medication they're gonna
give you. Xanax they're gonna, say, hey.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Take these medications which are gonna shut off your brain
so that you don't feel all the stress and. Anxiety
the problem is when you shut off your, brain it
almost makes you like a, zombie and then you lose
joy and love and passion for. Life when you take these,

(27:45):
pills they don't tell you the side. Effects sometimes the
cure is worse than the. Condition sometimes these anti anxiety
pills have a side effect of suicide or violent. TENDENCIES
a lot of these school shootings are kids that are

(28:06):
on anti anxiety. Medication you give a kid with a
developing brain some of these drugs and it messes up
the whole chemistry and stuff gets, rewired and they start
attacking people and become. Violent it's on the side of the,
bottle and then they, say don't operate. Machinery yet they're

(28:28):
driving these. Cars they could kill people and get into.
Accidents women take these pills at night and it's still
in their body in the. Morning because the medication is
done research on men and not, females they don't know
how to, absorb and then you, know the women end

(28:48):
up getting into, accidents whatever it. Is they burn the
kitchen down or they get into a car accident because
they're all loopy from these, medications which shuts off, everything
so they can't, think can't react quick. Enough it's. Dangerous
the medication just covers up, symptoms and that's not what

(29:10):
we do At Capital brain And. Body we want to
get to the root cause of the. Problem if you
get to the root cause of the, problem then you
can fix. It what if the root cause is your
brain is in overactive stress. Mode it's called a sympathetic
tone where you're in this fight or flight mode instead
of a relaxed rest and, digest and that can happen

(29:32):
sort of like a post traumatic. Stress we have a
history of, abuse physical, abuse emotional, abuse or losing a
loved one or an, accident some, trauma so this can
be where your brain's in stress. Mode we call that
the fight or flight. Mode SO i have to rewire
your brain through a process called neuroplasticity and do brain.

(29:54):
Exercises and it might be certain eye, exercises or it
might be relaxation. Technique we might have to change the,
diet we might have to change sleeping. Habits you might
have to work on what's called your vegus. Nerve so
you could work just like you could work a, muscle
you could work a. Nerve one of the ways to

(30:14):
work the vegus nerve is through. Gargling if you gargle
really intensely for thirty, seconds three times a, day it'll
stimulate your vegus nerve to get you out of stress
mode into a relax calm. State or sometimes if you
feel like, overheated you're on, fire we need to cool,

(30:37):
down splash your face with cold. Water that will also
calm down your overactive nervous. System there's so many easy
nearrow hacks that we could help you with to rewire
your brain to get you out of that stress. Mode
stick around to the end of the show because we're
gonna give you guys a gift on how you can

(30:58):
analyze your brain to figure out which exercises are more
specific for your, brain because there's thousands of, them Right
but we need to figure out what part of your
brain's not. Working maybe there's an area that's, overactive or
maybe that's an air area that's. Underactive maybe it's the right,
side maybe it's the left. Side maybe it's coming from your,

(31:19):
cerebellum maybe it's coming from your. Brainstem we got to
figure out what part of the brain isn't. Working once
we get to the root, cause now we can give
you the appropriate, recommendations but it's up to you whether
you want to do. It maybe you have to quit
coffee and you might not want to do, that but

(31:39):
if you want to do your restress it might be.
Important maybe you have to stop using social media at
night so it's. Work when patients see, ME i don't
just give them a pill like a, xanax BUT i
teach them what habits they need to change to rewire
their own. Brain all the power of your healing is within.

(32:03):
You you don't need, doctors you don't need, pills you
don't need. Tests you could do it on your. Own
but you just need the proper advice to give so
that you know what your weakness. Is and that's where
we come. In we figure out the weakness so that
you can help. Yourself the power that made the body

(32:27):
heals the. Body the body's. Smart you, know when you're
stressed and your heart's beating, fast it's doing that for a.
Reason when you're stressed and you got back, pain your
brain is telling you that for a. Reason when you're

(32:50):
stressed and you get a dreamal fatigue where you just,
crash your body's telling you that for a reason and
saying fix. Me when you get a, headache it's your
brain saying fix, Me i'm not getting blood flow into my.
Head when you get a temperature you're, overheated your brain is,
saying fix, ME i got some virus or bacteria THAT

(33:12):
i need to kill. Off whatever it, is there's always
a reason don't ignore the. Symptoms it's just the stress
manifesting in a physical. Way so if you reduce your
stress and you get to the root cause of the,
problem then no more. Symptoms but is it a physical

(33:32):
cause where you need to get up more and you're
having a sedentary lifestyle and you don't. Exercise is it
an emotional stress where you have to get out of
a bad job or a bad. Relationship is it electromagnetic?
Stress we got to turn off The Wi fi and
turn off your cell phone and your FIVE g and
your data and your computer and your cell, phone Your bluetooth.

(33:57):
Devices is it biochemical? Stress do you need to get
rid of some of those plastics and heavy metals and
clean up your cleaning fluids and beauty. Supplies you gotta
clean your, pipes you gotta get a water felt. There
what do you gotta do to reduce your biochemical? Stress

(34:18):
is you got to figure out where your stresses are
and reverse. Them and there are lots of ways to
deal with. Stress maybe it's practicing deep. Breathing the best
breathing exercise is to inhale with for four, seconds hold
your breath for seven, seconds and exhale for eight. Seconds
you always want to exhal twice as long as you,
inhale because when you, exhale it's more. Relaxing when you

(34:43):
inhale it's more. Stimulating you can practice that right. Now
if you take a big breath, in you feel like
your heart even gets a little bit. Faster when you,
exhale everything becomes more. RELAXED i don't know why a
lot of these places focus on the. Inhale we gotta
