Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. A lot of my patients come to me
with high stressed anxiety, panic, worry. The minds raising a
million miles per hour. They can't sleep, they wake up
(00:39):
all stressed out. Their cortisol levels are high, they can
lose the weight. So everything is overactive. Even their muscles
are in spasm. Their joints are emplaned. The immune system
can be overactive. It's called autoimmune disease. So when the
brain's overactive, the immune system becomes overactive and starts a
(01:00):
attacking your thyroid and can create hashimotos, and it can
attack your joints creating rheumatoid arthritis. You can attack your
gut causing siliac disease, or your brain causing MSS or
pain all over calling fibromyalgia, or skin problems or hair
problems like psoriasis or lupis exima. These are all autommune
(01:27):
diseases because the brain is overactive. When the brain is overactive,
we need to calm it down. It's not rocket science.
Most people's brains are overactive. They're in stress mode. And
what the worst thing to do is to have a stimulant.
So a lot of people who have anxiety or difficulties
(01:49):
sleeping actually drink coffee or have energy drinks, or eat
a lot of sugar. These are all stimulants and the
stimulants will increase in over active brain. So if you
do have anxiety difficulties, sleeping, stress, panic, ADHD, the mind's going.
You get distracted, can't focus, you can't think, you have
(02:13):
negative rumination. We got to calm down your brain. And
the good news is there's a process called neuroplasticity where
you could actually rewire your brain to get it in
a more relaxed state. And what that means instead of
being in the fight or flight mode, you're in a
more relaxed, rest and digest state. And so that means
(02:38):
we need to actually strengthen what's called your parasympathetic nervous system.
The parasympathetic nervous system is gonna get you in a
more relaxed state. There's four nerves that you can activate
that's going to relax your brain to reduce your stress
(03:01):
and get you out of that fight or flight mode
into a calm, relaxed, rest and digest state. So the
four nerves that are going to relax your nervous system,
it's called the ocular motor nerve, the facial nerve, the
glossopharyngeal nerve, and the vegas nerve. Now you don't have
(03:26):
to memorize them because I'll explain to what each these
nerves dick. So the ocular motor is your eye exercises.
There's lots of eye exercises that you could do to
strengthen this cranial nerve. Number three called the ocular motor nerve. Now,
you could do a few things such as near far exercises,
(03:51):
brock string exercises, no no, yes yes exercises, microscods, visual pursuits,
vestibular ocular reflexes, optokinetic eye exercises. There's all these different
eye exercises and they could be applied different ways to
(04:14):
stimulate the ocular mode or nerve to get you out
of that stress mode. So the eyes are very important
to heal the brain. The eyes are the only part
of the brain we can actually see. Right, I can't
see your brain. I can't see your spinal cord. I
(04:37):
can't see your central nervous system. I can't see your
peripherle nerves. We can't see any of that part of
the nervous system. But the eyes we can actually see.
So we could diagnose and treat lots of conditions through
the eyes and not just for the brain. You can
actually tell if there's a liver problem by looking at
(04:57):
your eyes if they become yellow jaundice. You could tell
if there's a heart problem. You can actually look inside
the eyes and look at the red arteries and the
veins and look at the size of them and see,
you know, is there increased tension or pressure. You can
see if there's issues with increased pressure, you know, like
(05:25):
a tumor or something like that. You could see how
the circulation is going. You could see so many things
through the eyes. The eyes are the window into the
brain and the nervous system. So in our offices in
New York and New Jersey, we do lots of eye
exercises but specific to the weak areas, and we can
(05:49):
use eyes to stimulate different areas of the brain. The
one we're talking about now, it's called the ocular motor nerve,
and there's different specific exercise that can strengthen that nerve
to increase input into your parasympathetic nervous system to get
you out of that stress mode into a calm, relaxed state.
So that's cranial nerve three. That's the first of four
(06:13):
nerves that will relax your nervous system. The second nerve
is called the facial nerve, and that's pretty self explanatory.
It innervates your face, So we could do different sensory
types of stimulation, motor types of stimulation. Even the ear
(06:33):
rubbing on what's called your tragus will stimulate the facial nerve.
The optic blink reflex where you blow air into the
eye to elicit a blink that actually stimulates the facial nerve.
Taste sweet sour, salty on the tip of the tongue
actually activates the facial nerve, So we can do sensory
(06:55):
motor We could work on the ear, the eyes, the tongue,
all to stimulate this face nerve, just like you could
go to the gym and do weightlifting and bicep curls.
I am a functional neurologist and a brain expert who
teaches you neurologic exercises that you could do to improve
your brain function. Now, don't come to me if you
(07:17):
want medication, if you want a XANX, if you want
anti anxiety antidepressants, alexa pro, if you want lithium, if
you want all these horrible drugs that have lots of
side effects that shut off your brain. We don't want
to shut off your brain. All we want to do
is relax the overactive areas of the brain. But the
(07:39):
areas of the brain that are working well, we don't
want to shut those off. So when you take those
medications to reduce your anxiety, you might be reducing your
anxiety or depression, but you're also shutting off the good
parts of your brain that create happiness and joy and
love and passion and energy. You don't want to be
(08:00):
walking around like a zombie. So if you want to
actually get to the root cause of your neurological condition,
if you're sick of hiding symptoms with medication, then this
is the show for you. We are the people that
are gonna help you out. All our offices in New Jersey,
New York. If you're far away, we do virtual visits,
(08:21):
resume or phase time or whats that. We are here
for you to teach you exercises you could do to
calm down your stressed out brain. To reduce anxiety, reduce
your cordis all your stress hormone, get better sleep, get
rid of that fatigue, improve brain function, no more brain fog.
Because we want to get your nervous system in a
(08:42):
relaxed state. All right, So we got the oculo motor
cranial nerve three, that's the first nerve, the facial nerve
cranial nerve seven, that's the second nerve. Now, the third
nerve that you could activate to relax your nervous system.
It's called the glosso pharyngeal nerve. The glosso pharyngeal is
(09:03):
basically your tongue and your back of your throat like
your palate. You can activate that with the gag reflex,
so you get your toothbrush, get a tongue depressed, or
go all the way to back of your throat and
hit the back of your throat, not to the point
where you throw up, but where you will listen a gag,
like a big gag reflex that will stimulate this glosso
(09:25):
pharyngeal nerve. You could also do taste bitter in the
back of the tongue. If you put bitter in the
back of the tongue, that also activates cranial nerve nine,
the glosso fyryngeal nerve, which is gonna get you in
a relaxed state. And to get better, you could do
dark chocolate, You could do some bitter herbs. You could
(09:47):
do coffee grinds. Don't swallow it, but just hold it
in the back of your tongue for thirty seconds and
then spit it out. That will literally activate this glosso
pharyngeal nerve, which you in a more relaxed state. And
the fourth nerve that gets you in a relaxed state
is the vagus nerve. The vegus nerve you can stimulate
(10:10):
by gargling really intensely for thirty seconds. You could do
a big swallow, get a bunch of saliva on your
tongue and just do one big gollf ball swallow. Imagine
a golf ball that you're swallowing, make a loud sound,
different humming sounds, different animal noises, different tongue noises, anything
(10:32):
with the back of your throat, screaming, coughing, sneezing, something
where you use your mouth, throat, make different noises. That's
going to help with your vegus nerve. All right, So
those are the four nerves part of your parasympathetic nervous
system that are going to relax your brain get you
(10:55):
out of that stress mode. So we got the oculo motor,
the facial, the glossopharyngel, and the vegas. And if you
activate all four of those nerves together and you do
them for thirty seconds, three times a day for twenty
one straight days, you start to rewire your brain in
a process called neuroplasticity to get you out of that
(11:16):
stress mode, that fight or flight mode, into a relaxed
rest and digest. When you're in that fighter flight mode,
it could cause high blood pressure, it could lead to cancer,
cause diabetes from the pancreas, digestive problems from your esophagus
and your stomach and your intestines. It could cause acid reflux,
gas stritis, also rate of colitis, ibs, urinary urgency, urinary
(11:41):
in continence, a rectile dysfunction, hormonal issues, period issues, menstrual issues,
fertility issues. All of this can be affect by you
being in stress mode. So it doesn't just cause you know,
muscle tension and spasm and back pain, but actually affects
your organ So if you want to really have the
(12:03):
highest quality of life, start working on your parasympathetic nervous
system so you function better, feel better, and live a
better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening
to boost your brain power more when we come back
from the break.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
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
(12:45):
holistic 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 Kaplin
is most famous for getting to the root cause of
a wide variety of brain and health conditions, rather than
(13:07):
treating symptoms with traditional medicines and risky surgeries. To contact
the Doctor Kamplin, you can call his team at two
are one two six one two one five zero or
visit his website at kaplindc dot com.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. A lot of our patients come for help
with their brain. A specific part of the brain that
is very common is the frontal cortex. When the frontal
(13:45):
cortex has an imbalance from left to right, we can
see a variety of symptoms. For example, a lot of
the childhood developmental delays come from a functional disconnect of
the frontal cortex that includes autism, Aspergers, dyslexia, add ADHD
(14:11):
Turet syndrome. These are these developmental delays and a lot
of times it's because there's an imbalance of the frontal cortex.
So just like you could strengthen your muscle by working out,
doing weightlifting, exercising, you could actually fix your brain that's
(14:34):
underdeveloped by doing neurological treatments. So there's a process called
neuroplasticity where you could rewire the brain through neurologic exercises,
but if it's one of these conditions, we'd have to
be very specific for that frontal cortex, and the frontal
cortex is activated with a lot of different types of
(14:55):
brain exercises. What's called ciccads, which are fa eye movements,
is really good for the frontal cortex, little finger movements,
smell you know, these are all really good for the
frontal core tex. But if you have a developmental delay
such as autism, where the brain's underdeveloped, before you even
(15:20):
work on the motor and the sensory aspect, you have
to work on what's called primitive reflexes. Primitive reflexes with
autism kids or add or ADHD or dyslexia or turetts.
Basically what happens is you have these reflexes that are
supposed to be gone after one year of age, but
(15:43):
with children with these developmental delays, these primitive reflexes are retained.
So the first step is to catch up the brain
to development is to do these neurologic exercises which get
rid of or eliminate these primitive reflexes. Now the brain
can develop properly. The problem is the modern approach seems
(16:05):
to be, Okay, let's do speech pathology, occupational therapy, physical therapy,
behavioral therapy. So but that's the third stage. You have
to do the primitive reflexes first. Then you can do
the motor and sensory second, and then third would be
(16:25):
the cognitive, the behavioral, the speech. So you know, you
have to do that in the correct order or the
brain will not ever function on the way it's supposed to.
But the good news is if you do it in
the appropriate way primitive reflexes first, motor, sensory second, and
then cognitive, behavioral, speech, physical, third, then it starts to
(16:47):
work much better. All right. Now, other things that can
happen with the frontal cortex are anxiety and depression. And
when you have depression, that means your frontal cortex is underactive,
and when you have anxiety, that means your frontal cortex
(17:08):
is overactive. And you might have both. It's like a
bipolar or a manic depressant. So we have one side
underactive and one side overactive. Stick around at the end
of the show, and I'll tell you what you could
do about that. Now, when you have these imbalances of
the frontal cortex, you're going to have areas that are
(17:32):
underactive that need to be stimulated. Right, So if you
have depression, we need to strengthen your brain activate it,
you know, especially right now in December. It's a very
common time for seasonal affect disorder SAD. And that's where
people get depressed in the winter because they're vitamin D deficient.
(17:57):
If you want a good vitamin D recommendation, please email
me info at Kaplanbrainobody dot com. Ninety nine percent of
the vitamin d's out there are crap. Don't go to
CBS or Whole Foods or Vitamin Shop or GNC to
get a vitamin D. That is crap. They're full of impurities,
(18:18):
they don't get absorbed, they're contaminants. We don't want those fillers, Okay,
So don't ever get a vitamin D at the store, right,
and if you want the good one, just email me right.
Very important during the winter. I personally take ten thousand
on you during the winter and fat five thousand during
(18:39):
the summer. Everybody's vitamin D defishient in the Northeast. You
know it's and even when you're outside, you gotta wearing
the hat, glasses, your long sleeves, long pans, everything's covered.
There's not a lot of skin exposure, all right, So
we sometimes we need to supplement if there's deficiency, but
most people over supplement. So you don't need all the multivitamins.
(19:01):
You don't want to take B twelve and vitamin C
and zinc and magnesium and calcium, and it's oh no, no, no, no,
stop taking all the vitamins. Only only take vitamins if
you have evidence that you're decreased in it in your
blood work, and you know that there's no other reason
(19:21):
that you are a decreased. For example, you don't want
to take iron because you're anemic. You might be anemic
because you don't have enough stomach acid. Right. You don't
want to take melatonin because you can sleep. Maybe you
can't sleep because your sympathetic nervous system is over firing. Right,
So you gotta be careful of what you take. You
(19:42):
need analysis of your blood work done properly so you
could figure out what exactly you're deficient in. What you
need what you need more of? Do you need to
drink more water? Do you need to get more sunlight?
You need to eat these different foods to avoid these foods.
Do you have too much inflammation, you have poor absorption,
you need more bacteria. Whatever it is, we gotta do
(20:02):
a thorough investigation. Don't just take supplements because something you
read is good for you. Everybody's an individual. Most people
are taking way too many supplements. You should only have
to take a supplement is absolutely necessary that the vitamin
D is pretty much the only one I take right.
(20:23):
And you know, most people also need probiotics because you know,
they're always taking antibiotics, and they're taking antibacterial lotions and
antibacterial sprays and antibacterial soaps, and then I mean everything's antibacterial.
That's not good. I'm probiotics. I like pro bacteria. Body
is mostly bacteria. So let's seasonal affect disorder. When your
(20:47):
frontal cortex is weak. You don't need lexapro lithium. You
don't need all these medications. Maybe you just need some
more sunlight, some more exercise, some progression in your life.
Make progression in your life. That's the key to depression
is progression, right, and sometimes you can get depressed. Like
(21:10):
my wife just lost her father. She's depressed, she's crying.
Then her doctor's like, oh, take some anti depressed, And
I'm like, what, You're supposed to be depressed when you
lose your father, You're supposed to cry, You're supposed to
be sad, feel those emotions, Let those tears out of
your body, and I'm just there for her. Just give
(21:32):
her a hug and say anything that's gonna make her
feel better. No magic word that gets rid of, you know,
a depression from losing a loved one. Then she's got
to make progression in her life, make progression in her relationships,
make progression in her health, working out how much water
she drinks. Then she starts to feel better about herself,
(21:55):
getting more socials, getting out in the real world, helping others,
doing charity. That's how you get out of a depression.
Right now. The opposite is the anxiety, right, that's the
overactive frontal cortex, all right, That's where people have the ADHD.
Either their mind's going so fast they can't get those
(22:16):
thoughts out of their head. They always get worried, they
fear and anger. It's overactive. You gotta calm it down.
Easy way to calm down your overactive nervous system is
to do figure eight infinity symbols. You do that for
thirty seconds, three times a day. That has been proven
through neuroscience to reduce anxiety. Make sure you keep your
(22:38):
arms straight and cross over the middle of the body.
Middle of the body, drawing figure eights thirty seconds, three
times a day, very good for anxiety. Now what else?
Helpings in the frontal cortex. That's where dementia starts. Frontal
temporal dementia. You don't want dementia, You better start doing
(23:00):
frontal cortex exercises. You better start doing smell. If you
lost your smell from covid or from the vaccine, this
is an issue. You're gonna have a weak frontal cortex
if you lost it from smoking or drugs. You gotta
work on that. You gotta rewire your brain. It means
your frontal cortex is weak. You gotta really work on that.
(23:26):
You gotta prevent dementia. So to bred dementia, you gotta
do novelty new things. You gotta stimulate your brain purposely.
Start remembering your grocery list, remember people's phone numbers, remember addresses.
Start learning different languages, learning a musical instrument, learning different
(23:48):
dance moves. You gotta meet new people, go to new places.
Novelty is the key. If you want to prevent Alzheimer's
in dementia, which starts from your frontal cortex, you better
start doing new things. You better be uncomfortable. You better
go out of your daily routine and do new things
that your body's not used to doing. Start eating with
(24:11):
your left hand, start playing a new sport, taking out
a new hobby, joining a new club. You have to
do new things. You got to challenge your brain. And
then you've got to feed it all the energy it needs.
The sunlight, the oxygen, the water, the food give the
(24:34):
brain the fuel delivery it needs to reach optimal potential.
Parkinson's disease also occurs in the frontal cortex. But we
could pick this up early on and look at your
gate and see if your arms swinging properly, or how
your facial expressions are, or how your pupil sizes, or
(24:55):
how your balance is, how your posture is, how your
gut motil is all right, We can analyze the brain
and the body to figure out if you're predisposed to Parkinson's,
which usually starts in that frontal cortex. Same thing with Alzheimer's,
same thing with dementia, anxiety, depression, autism, add ADHD, dyslexia,
(25:19):
aspergers to rats. That all starts from the frontal cortex.
So we have to make sure we take care of
our brains so we function better, feel better, and live
a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're
listening to boost your brain power.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Don't miss boost your brain power with doctor Eric Kamplin
every Saturday from two pm to three pm to learn

(25:58):
Kaplan will be sharing with audience. Join the adventure of
discovering how to help the brain and body in a
natural way while having fun at the same time. Listen
to boost your brain power. If you want to function better,
feel better, and enjoy the quality of life you deserve.
Called two oh one two six' one two one five
zero or email info At kaplan brainbody dot com if
(26:23):
you're interested in a free ten minute consultation with Doctor
caplin or visit kaplindc dot com for more.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Information function, better feel better and live a better. Life
this is Doctor Eric kaplan and you're listening to boost
your brain. Power. Now a lot of people have different
types of brain. Problems some people have what's called proprioceptive
(26:54):
issues that comes from your parietal cortex of your. Brain
and we can analyze the parietal cortext by doing different
types of. Tests one of the tests is called. Graphsthesia
AND i used to do this as a. Kid ACTUALLY
(27:15):
i didn't know it was a neurologic, test but where
you would draw different letters on your back or draw
different numbers and you'd have to, say, okay what Letter
oh that was the LETTER, b or that was the LETTER.
M that is measuring your, propioception your sensory. Input that's
actually a good neurologic. Exercise so you could do that
(27:35):
with your friends and family and, say, Okay i'm gonna
draw a letter on your, back you tell me what
letter it, is Or i'm gonna draw it on your
arm or your, leg and you tell me what letter it.
Is and if you're, inaccurate that means that area of
your brain is Weak NOW i am a brain, expert
and WHAT i do is analyze the brain and IF
i find a weak, AREA i can actually give you
(27:57):
neurologic exercises to strengthen. It think of me like a physical,
therapist but for the. Brain so if we have these sensory,
issues we have to do sensory different types of. Input,
Okay so graphistiesia is one neurologic exercise to test your parietal.
Cortex another exercise is called. Graphstigia, right so we got
(28:27):
graphistigia's number, one and the other exercise it's called stereoagnosis.
Stereognosis the second exercise is where you have to identify certain.
Things so you could take like a, pencil a pen a,
highlighter a, cran a, marker and you put it all
(28:49):
in the you, know a, hat and then you put
your hand in the hat and you pick one of
them out and, say, okay that's the, cran and then
you put that back in up and you pick another
one that's the. Pencil so you feel. It you feel the,
eraser you feel the, wood a little metal, thing and
then when you feel the pen you feel like the
little cap and the little thing on the edge and
(29:10):
the little button that you, Press and so you use your,
hands use your sensory. Input or you could do it with.
Balls you put a, baseball a golf, ball a tennis,
ball all, racquetball a, softball and then you gotta pick
up this one's a little bit, smaller and it's got
those little rough edges. Up this one's a little. Fuzzy
(29:30):
this one's, harder this one's more. Rubbery so then you
can identify or different materials conton and silk and polyester and.
Wool and you use your hands to. Feel use your.
Senses we don't use our senses enough. Anymore gotta start
(29:51):
Using you gotta exercise your brain like you exercise your.
Muscle so exercise your, touch exercise your. Smell how many
times you do smelling. Exercises if you want to improve your,
smell you gotta do smelling. Exercises it's not rocket. Science
if you want to improve your, vision you have to
do vision. Exercises you want to improve your, hearing you
(30:13):
have to do hearing. Exercises it's not rocket. Science but
nobody does vision. Exercises they just keep buying. Glasses, well
if you start doing vision, exercises you could actually take
off your glasses and you won't need to use them.
Anymore the best eye exercise is called a brock string eye.
(30:36):
Exercise we have those that off at our. Office you
can just email me info at kaplombrainobody dot. Com i'll
tell you how to get. Those those are the. Best
they can literally improve your near vision and your far.
Vision you can get rid of your reading, glasses and
you can get rid of your distance. Glasses you get
rid of your, bifocals you get rid of your. Contacts
(31:00):
used to wear glasses one hundred percent of the, Day
now i wear it ten percent of the day Because
i'm exercising my eyes and do my brock string. Exercises
do smell. Exercises when your smell gets, better then every
of the food's more. Enjoyable your brain works at a higher.
(31:21):
Level smells very important and the way to exercise your
smell is to peanut butter is actually a great smell.
Test that's what a lot of doctors. Use see how
far away CAN i hold the peanut butter jar away
from my nose and still smell? It so you're strengthening
same thing with your. Hearing how far away you, know
(31:42):
CAN i put the speaker and still hear. It or
how low CAN i put the sound on the speaker
AND i can still hear? It and you want to
strengthen your, hearing how far CAN i stand away and still?
Read you want to strengthen your, Eyes but you gotta exercise.
(32:04):
It you want to prove your, memory you gotta do memory.
Exercises you want to improve your, posture you gotta do posture.
Exercises we want to prove our sensory, input our parietal,
cortex our porropial. Sception we gotta do sensory. Exercises the
touch exercise is a great sensory. Exercise so you just, Think,
(32:24):
Okay i'm gonna touch the second crease of my ring
finger and then you try and touch it with your eyes.
Closed i'm gonna touch the outer edge of my right
nostril and then try and touch it with your eyes.
Closed i'm gonna try and touch the h my wedding,
ring or my, watch or my, necklace or you, know
(32:46):
something very, specific the very outer edge of my, eyebrow
my beauty mark on my left. Arm and, then if
you you, know open up your eyes and you see
that you missed it by an, inch then you start
over and you try it. Again that's for your. Propioception
(33:06):
and if your propioceptions, off you might confuse your lefts and.
Rights everybody knows somebody they always confuse their lefts and the.
Rights that means their parietal cortex is not. Working guess
what if you strengthen your brain through a process called
neuroplasticity and you rewire your parietal, cortex you will not
confuse your lefts and rights. Anymore you'll not get out
(33:29):
of the, subway not know which way's, north which way,
south which way's east, west where are? You or you're
bumping into. Things that's also people with their parietal cortex not.
Working they're very. Clumsy they're dropping, things they're knocking things,
over they're bumping into the. Couch it's really bad at,
night and that means you have poor. Poropioception you could
(33:54):
do an eye exercise for. That they're called visual, pursuits
which is just slow eye. Exercise just hold a pen
in front of you and you slowly go left to
right and just follow. It very good for your parietal.
Cortex and we said you could do the graphesthesia with
the different. Numbers the, stereognosis touching the different balls or the.
(34:18):
Pens now you got the touch, tests you got the visual.
Pursuits there's so many neurologic EXERCISE i got thousands of.
Exercises i'm like a physical, therapist but for your. Brain
but we got to figure out which area of your
brain is. Weak one of the best tests to let
(34:39):
us know which areas of the brains are. Weak it's
called a Q eeg brain. Mapping this is where you
wear a. Cap it sort of looked like a swimmers,
cap but it's got electrodes attached to, it and it
measures all the different areas of your, brain your frontal,
cortex the, parietal temporally except but the. Cerebellum it tells, us,
okay do you have do you have? Anxiety do you
(35:01):
have troubles with, focus, motivation organization? Planning do you have sensory,
issues balance, problems, headaches? Dizzyness do you have heavy metal?
Poisoning do you have a. Concussion do you have a.
Pathology do you have low, dopamine low? Acetylcholine do you
have heavy metal, poisoning sleep? Deprivation do you have? Insomnia
(35:21):
do you have difficulties shifting. Tasks it literally breaks down
all the different areas of the, brain all the different,
memory short term, memory long term, memory working, memory sequential.
Memory it literally breaks it down all the, verbal the.
Speech this test is. Amazing it's non, invasive there's no
radiation at. All you don't have to sit in some small.
(35:44):
Tube it measures your alpha brain, waves which is you
know how we normally. Are it measures your beta brain,
waves which when you really focus and think and study
and present something at, work or you, know you gotta
read a book or whatever it. Is that's the beta
that measures your. Theta that's when you're in daydreaming. Mode
(36:04):
you're looking at the, window you're sitting in the, wood
you're listening to the, bird you're in la la. Land
that's when sometimes we come up with creative. Ideas you
think of these new, things uh these uh inguit and,
ideas and it's like the theta makes us really come
up with stuff that we normally wouldn't think. Of and
(36:25):
then the delta that's when you got to. Relax that's
when you're in sleeping and that's when everything's come. Right
so THE qEEG brain mapping measures all these different brain
waves and based on the ab normal brain waves and
the location of where we find these abnormal. Brainwaves we
could literally say which area the brains are functioning at
the highest levels and which areas of the brain are not.
(36:46):
Functioning then we could come up with a diagnosis and
a recommendation on neurologic, exercises our habits you could do
to increase. Input, now don't come to me if you
want some some, drugs some, medication SOME, iv some, herb some.
Supplement you know that's not WHAT i. Do i'm the
(37:10):
doctor that teaches you how to fix your own brain
by finding your weaknesses and teaching a process called neuroplasticity
to rewire your brain to connect those weak areas so
you can function at the highest. Level your brain is
the most important. Organ it controls. Everything it controls your blood,
(37:30):
pressure it controls, diabetes your, digestion your, energy your, hormones your,
sleep your, mood your. Balance everything's controlled by your. Brain
so you have to analyze it so you know what
you could do to prevent future. Problems don't wait till
their bed to start working on. Them an ounce of
(37:50):
prevention is worth a pound of. Cure, now THIS qEEG
brain mapping test is normally five hundred, dollars but for
the first seven people to, call text or, email you
can literally get THIS qEEG Brain mapping for only twenty one.

(39:31):
of a wide variety of brain and health, conditions rather
than treating symptoms with traditional medicines and risky. Surgeries to
contact Doctor, kaplin you can call his team at two
oh one two six one two one five zero or
visit his website at kaplindc dot.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Com function, better feel, better and live a better. Life
this is Doctor Eric, kaplan and you're listening to boost
your brain. Power, now we see a lot of people
with different neurological, disorders and one of the most common
(40:08):
areas of brain dysfunctioning comes from the. Cerebellum, now the
cerebellum has more neurons in it then the whole brain put.
Together and it's this little part of the brain that
comes sort of in the back of your. Neck but
it's the. Director it's the conductor of the whole, orchestra
and it's telling everybody what to. Do it's telling your
(40:29):
body to, move how to, thing how to. Coordinate out of,
balance how to make sure everything gets done. Properly it's
it's making sure you don't go too, fast too, slow too,
high too, low too, left too. Right it's getting everything
balanced and. Coordinated and without, it we'd be falling down
all the, time wouldn't be able to. Walk and that's
(40:52):
what makes us human is that we're. Bipedal. Right we
can use our hands to create instruments and tools and
technology and fire and hunt and gather and do all
this stuff that has made us human and separated us
from all the other. Species, right because they're all on four,
right everyone's basically on four. Limbs we're the ones that
(41:14):
are totally, upright and that's considered the highest evolutionary. Standard,
unfortunately due to the, technology we're. Reversing instead of becoming,
upright we're all coming hunched. Over and when you're hunched,
over your brain doesn't work. Right. Right someone who's, depressed
they're all slouched. Down someone who's energetic and, happy they're,
upright their chins up. Right so your posture is directly
(41:38):
related to your brain, function and your balance is directly
related to your. Cerebellum that's why when you drink, alcohol
that's the first area of your brain that's affected because
it requires the most, oxygen the most blood, flow the
(41:59):
most brain cells all comes from this. Cerebellum so when
you get pulled over and they think you're drunk, driving
all those neurologic tests that the police are doing are
for your. Cerebellum and, say, oh you, know walk a
straight line and stand on one leg and touch your.
Nose those are all sarahbellar. Tests, Right so if you
(42:24):
can't put your hand out and touch your nose, accurately
that means that your cerebellum is. Off or if you
can't stand on one, leg that means your cerebellum's. Off,
now if you miss your nose with your right hand
really bad and you can stand on your right, leg
(42:51):
then that probably means that your right cerebellum is decreased in.
Function and you can actually increase your right cerebellum by.
Spinning if you just have one of those office chairs
and you spin to the, right that stimulates your right.
Cerebellum pretty. Cool it's just a brain. Exercise it's not rocket.
(43:12):
Science OH i can't stand on my right, LEG i
can't touch my right. Nose my right cerebellum must be.
Off let me do a neurologic exercise to stimulate my right.
Cerebellum and, wow NOW i could stand on my right
leg and NOW i could touch my nose with my right.
Hand then you know that your neurog exercise. Improved just
do a little science. Experiment but you gotta actually. Challenge
(43:35):
you gotta do a brain. Exercise just like you could
exercise your muscle if it's, weak you could exercise your
brain if it's, weak and spinning in a chair activateure.
Cerebellum pretty cool, stuff, Right also another exercise that increases
(43:58):
input into your se erbellum and everyone could try this
at home is where you, do and this will be
for your left. Cerebellum we'll try this. One you take
your left leg and draw clockwise circles and then with
your left hand draw the number six that's going to
activate your. Cerebellum got to. Coordinate standing on a soft
(44:23):
cushion works your. Cerebellum your. Balance falls are the number
one cause of accidents in every single age group except
fifteen to twenty one year old, men that is car.
Accidents but other than that age, group everyone. Else falls
are the number one cause of, accidents they cause. Concussions
(44:47):
oh my, god here see so many concussions and traumatic brain,
injuries and a lot of people who have brain, fog memory, depression,
anxiety focus. Problems it comes from times they hit their
head years. Ago just because you got hit in the
head ten years ago doesn't mean it's not affecting your brain.
(45:07):
Now Sometimes alzheimer's takes forty years to. Develop but you
don't want to wait till your memory starts going before
you start working on your. Brain just like you brush
your teeth every day and take care of your, teeth
start exercising your brain every, day whether it's drawing that
(45:31):
circle with the number, six trying to balance on one,
leg trying to coordinate your hand to your, nose doing smelling,
exercises vision, exercises memory. Exercises we have to challenge our.
Brain your brain's like a. Muscle you'll use it or
you lose. It people understand going to the gym and
(45:54):
exercising every, day or going for a walk every, Day
but WHEN i tell them they got to exercise their
brain every, day it's just a paradigm. Shit but if
you think about, it what's more important your brain or your,
teeth but you're committed to brushing your teeth every day
for your whole entire, life start being committed to exercising
their brain every day for your whole entire. Life if
(46:18):
you want your brain to be strong and, healthy if
you want to end up like everybody else with heart, disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, Dementia, Parkinson's,
alzheimer's that's the ninety nine percent Of. Americans don't be like.
(46:38):
Them be the one percent whose memory gets better as
they get, older whose vision improves as they get. Older
you can be that one. Percent your posture can improve
as you get, older you could get more, Energy your
bones can get, stronger your muscles can get. Stronger you
(47:02):
just have to do the. Work do not believe the
lie that your brain and body get worse as you get.
Older that's the biggest lie you've ever been told in your.
Life maybe it's because you're not doing the things you're
supposed to be doing to improve your health and increase
(47:22):
brain function through a process called neuroplasticity to make your
areas of the brain stronger and function at the highest level.
Possible but you have to figure out which areas of
the brain are, weak which areas are, underactive which areas are.
Overactive the best test to determine which areas are underactive
(47:44):
and which areas are overactive is called A vng video.
Nostography and this is a test where you wear these cool.
Goggles they got infrared cameras on them that measure your
eye movements that go left and right and up and
down and in light and, dark and with head turns
and fast and, slow and we measure all the different
(48:06):
ways your brain. Works it's non, evasive there's no, radiation
you don't have to sit in some small, tube there's
no contrast. Fluid it's super. Quick it only takes about
ten to fifteen, minutes and it's diagnostic of how your
brain is. Functioning if your brain's, overactive you, know you
might suffer from LIKE, adhd, anxiety might, worry might have difficulty,
(48:30):
Sleeping you might have heart, palpitations high blood, pressure might
have difficulty losing, weight might have panic. Attacks, right that's
if your. Overactive if you're, underactive might have, fatigue, depression
poor focused brain, fog low, motivation poor, metabolism, constipation poor bladder. Control,
(49:01):
right so the vng's gonna pick that. Up it's normally
five hundred, dollars but we're gonna give a gift all the.
Listeners for the first seven people to, call text or
email you could get THIS. Vng instead of paying the
normal five hundred, dollars you could get it for only
twenty one. Dollars just caller text six four six two
