Speaker 1 (00:00):
Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Where are we talking about your immune system?
Your immune system is very important. When we think about
the immune system with the about fighting infections, fighting bacteria, viruses, parasites, worms.
(00:26):
Now we have to fight electromagnetic radiation. We have to
fight pollution, to fight the plastics, the heavy metals. There's
a lot we have to fight, especially in America because
we're exposed to more chemicals, pollutions, and stimulations more than
any other country. So we really want to make our
(00:49):
immune system strong. You have in your body it's called
white blood cells, red blood cells, and white blood cells.
The red blood cells give you your oxygen and your
blood flow, your circulation. Your white blood cells that's your
immune sett They help to fight off the bad stuff.
(01:14):
And there's different types of white blood cells. There's neutropills
they fight bacteria, and there's lymphocytes that fight viruses, and
there'scinophyls that fight different allergies. So we have all these
different things basophils and monocytes. So the human body is
amazing about all the cells and the systems they have
(01:34):
to keep you healthy. Okay, So your immune system needs
these white blood cells, needs these specific white blood cells
to fight off different things. You have different bacteria that
fight off different diseases. You have different bacteria that help
with your skin, different bacteria that help with your brain,
(01:55):
different bacteria to help with your gut. You know, there's
all different role goals and jobs for these types of
cells in your body. With the white blood cells, so
they're basically supposed to you know, when a bacteria comes in,
it's supposed to say, hey, we don't like this bacteria.
(02:18):
Let's kill it so it doesn't infect your body, replicate
and then take over. Now, why can these bacteria or
viruses replicate? Now they're going to be strong if your
body is acidic. I don't if you remember in chemistry
(02:40):
class growing up, you were talking about your pH levels.
So you can have an acidic environment or you can
have an alkaline environment. For your immune system to function best,
we need an alkaline environment. So we're going to avoid
things that make us a cidic, most of which comes
(03:02):
from food. Mosch of us comes with white food. You know,
the dairy products, the sugar products, the grains, and the
wheat products. Most of the white stuff creates the acidic environment.
Low oxygen creates an acidic environment. Dehydration creates an acidic environment. Okay,
(03:32):
so we need the proper food, we need the proper water.
We need to make sure we get enough oxygen. Oxygen
is so important, you know, especially in the New York
City area with so much pollution and they, you know,
chop down all the trees. That's why we have hyperbaric
(03:52):
oxygen chambers in both of our offices in New Jersey
and New York City. Our patients love it. So when
you have an oxygen chamber, it's one hundred percent oxygen
and no bacteria and viruses can live in one hundred
percent oxygen. When COVID happened, they started bringing these hyperbaric
(04:14):
oxygen chambers into hospitals because it was the one thing
that was killing the virus his oxygen. So if you
have chronic lime disease, if you have the long covid,
you know, if you have have chronic infections, you know,
(04:34):
the hyperbaric oxygen shit chamber is going to suffocate the bacteria.
They can't live with all the oxygen, just like we
wouldn't be able to live with carbon dioxide. They can't
live with the oxygen. The carbon dioxide makes you acidic,
the oxygen makes you alkaline. Okay, so we need the
(04:58):
hyperbaric oxygen chamber kills off all the bad stuff. I
don't care if it's yeast, mold, bacteria, virus, worms, parasites.
I can't live in oxygen. It's gonna boost your immune system,
get your immune system strong. You know, people, it's funny.
(05:23):
People come into my office and you know, they say, oh,
did you clean the oxygen chamber? And I said, of
course we cleaned it. Yes, we make sure we sanitize everything.
But then I also say, it's one hundred percent oxygen.
There is no bacteria that could live in there, right,
(05:44):
But you know, people still in that mindset. Oh, I
got a purel everything. I need antibacterial soap, and I
need antibacterial lotions and sprays, and you know, I need
to bring purel everywhere with me. And you know, is
that really the best way to do it. I don't know,
(06:06):
because the truth is, some bacteria are very good, and
what if you kill the good bacteria. So when you
take antibiotics, you kill the good bacteria. When you do
listering mouthwash, you kill the good bacteria. Right when you
(06:26):
put all these alcohol bleaches antibacterial, you kill off all
the good bacteria. Now your body is made of mostly bacteria.
Your body has more bacteria than cells, so you're walking
(06:49):
bacteria machine. Trillions of bacteria, that's all you are. But
we got to make sure we have more of the
good bacteria and less than a bad bacteria. So I
love probiotics, and I love switching up probiotics all the time.
You want to switch probiotics every two months, and you
don't get probiotics from yogurt. That's a big scam, all right.
(07:13):
It's not worth the effects of the dairy products for
the amount of probiotics you're getting in the yogurt not
worth it, just like the amount of is vertrol you
get from red wine is not worth drinking. So people say, oh,
you know red wine's healthy. Well, the skin of the
(07:34):
red grapes has res veratrol, which is an anti inflammatory
and anti aging, and res veratrol is very healthy, but
it's better to get it from Japanese not weed, to
actually eat the red grapes than to drink the wine
because the amount of wine you have to drink, the
alcohol kills your brain cells. It's not worth it, right,
So is it worth taking antibiotics? Is it worth killing
(07:58):
that bacteria when you're going to save all your good bacteria?
Now it's going to make you more susceptible to future
infections because it's going to ruin your immune system. The
more antibiotics you've taken in your life, the weaker your
immune system gets. The more anti acids you take, the
weaker your immune system gets because the stomach acid kills
(08:19):
off the bacteria and the viruses. When you have a
fever and you take medication to bring down your fever,
now your immune system gets weakened. You're heating up to
kill off the virus of the bacteria. Your body's smart.
It does it for a reason. We're not smarter than them.
(08:42):
So stop trying to outsmart God and your own body's
creation with drugs and medication. Let the body heal how
it's supposed to heal, and be smart about it. Right.
So you want to rink dirty water, No, get a
high duty filter, maybe just like a reverse osmosis something
(09:05):
that you get, you know, installed under the sink. If
you guys want a good guy, I have a really
good guy who's very affordable installs this in your house
or apartment. You know, you gotta filter out all the
bad stuff, and there's lots of stuff. Right. They have
fluoride they put in the water that lowers your IQ.
(09:30):
It's a non neurotoxin, So I make sure you filter
out the fluoride. I don't get fluoride toothpaste. I make
sure I don't get fluoride at the dentist. Right. Fluoride
is no good. They don't tell you that though. It's
a neurotoxin, right, So we gotta make sure we have
clean water. You don't want your immune system to overwork, right,
(09:53):
So I don't like antibiotics. I like probiotics, and we
gotta switch probiotics every two months because different bacteria have
different jobs. And you can also ferment vegetables and stuff
like that that helps to produce good bacteria. You could
do apple side or vinegar helps with the stomach acid
(10:17):
and then you can you know, have your foods with
vitamin C to boost your immune system. Those are like
mostly the citrus foods are really good for that. Zinc
also boosts your immune system. Oysters have good amount of
zinc in there. Vitamin D boost your immune system. The
(10:38):
sunlight is the best for vitamin D. So there's all
these easy ways to get your immune system strong. Make
sure you eat healthy, get good rest, reduce your stress, exercise,
get blood flow circulation. You could boost your immune system
on your own. You don't need to always take amiotics
(11:00):
and be scared of viruses and bacteria. Build your body strong,
so whatever they throw your way you can handle. Then
you'll function better, feel better, and live a better life.
This is doctor Eric Caplan, and you're listening to boost
your brain power.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
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
(11:40):
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 Caplin
is most famous for getting to the root cause of
a wide variety of brain and health conditions, rather than
(12:02):
treating symptoms with traditional medicines and risky surgeries. To contact
the doctor Kaplan, 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 1 (12:16):
Function Better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Talking about your immune system, right. We got
to strengthen your immune system. So when your immune system
is weak, there is an issue because it makes you
(12:40):
more susceptible to problems. That's why when they have like
the kids in the cancer wing in the hospital, when
they do the chemotherapy, he really weakens their immune system.
And they say, oh, you know, make sure if you're sick,
(13:02):
you don't come. They also make sure they say, if
you're vaccinated, don't come, because vaccines you could shed and
give the cancer patient, you know, whatever it is. If
you just got the measles or the moms or the
chicken pox or you know, one of those live viruses,
you could shed and you could give it to the
(13:27):
patient who has the weak immune system. A's is a
weak immune system, so they're very susceptible. Right, So you
know when people got COVID, some people would get it
and some people wouldn't. It's those that had a weak
immune system.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
How come two people can be in the same room,
one person gets COVID and one person doesn't. It's not
the virus, it's your immune system. So why I'm not
scared of anything because my immune system so strong. I
got people sneeze on me, and I won't get sick
(14:10):
because my immune system strong. You have satisfying that is
to walk around knowing that my immune system is so
strong that no one can get me sick. Even COVID
nineteen can't get me sick because that was a virus
(14:33):
that was produced in a lab through experiments to make
these superviruses. It's called gain of function research. And this
gain of function research, they were researching this coronavirus and
made it really strong and powerful, and unfortunately it got
(14:59):
let out and it's a around the world. So people
even with a little bit of weakness in their immune
system would get it. So there's always people that already
had a weakness to begin with a weak immune system,
whether they had diabetes or obesity, or heart disease or cancer.
It's like it's always a weakness, and that goes true
(15:21):
for anything, for lime disease as well. All right, I've
been bit by many tics. I've even seen you know,
the little rash there, but never manifested into a sickness
because my immune system is strong and I was able
to fight off the line. You know, as a doctor
(15:42):
worksposed to every virus because all these patients come to
us from all over the world. I'm in New York City.
It's exposed to everything. My immune system is strong and
handle it. And if you can handle it, then you
just kill off whatever virus you're exposed to, right, you
(16:03):
just kill it off. That's the way your immune system
is designed. But if you're exposed to too much and you're
already weak to begin with, now you can't handle it.
So you gotta get your immune system so strong I
can handle anything. Right, So take care of your body.
You only get one body, one immune system, one brain,
(16:26):
one gut, one heart. Take care of all your organs.
Take care of them because you want them to take
care of you as you get older. You don't want dementia,
you don't want Alzheimer's, you want Parkinson's, you want heart disease,
you don want cancer, you want diabetes, obesity, you don't
(16:47):
want depression, anxiety. Well, look, you don't want that stuff.
You gotta work for it because guess what when you
get sick, When your immune system is weak, that gets
you depressed, That ruins your mood, That takes away your motivation,
(17:07):
That creates more stress, that creates more sickness. Right, so
we need your energy strong, We need your joy in life,
strong immune system, lots of energy, good brain function. But
you gotta work for it. Nobody's gonna give you to you.
You gotta work for it. There's no magic pill. Everyone
(17:28):
wants these magic pills, whether it's a medicine, a drug,
an ivy, an injection, a supplement, an herb, a homeopathic remedy.
They're always looking for these pills and these quick fixes.
That's not health. You gotta work for it. Sorry, That's
the truth. Life is hard. Life is work. To be healthy,
(17:53):
especially in America, it's extremely hard. There's lots of things
working against you. It's hard to buy healthy food, it's
hard to be around positive people. It's hard not to
be exposed to all these electromagnetic radiation. It's hard not
(18:19):
to be polluted in your air. It's hard not to
have dirty water or dirty food. It's not easy being healthy.
You gotta go old school. No microwave, no preservatives, no
(18:39):
food dies, no artificial colorings, artificial flavorings, no packaging, no
boxes and cans and bags. Everything needs to be fresh.
You need to be outside, not on the TV, computer
and cell phone. You need to be in nature and
sun and oxygen, be exercise. You need to drink your water.
(19:02):
You need to eat your healthy food. You need to
get your rest, you need to reduce your emotional stress.
I mean, there's a formula to your health. And I
don't care if you know this already. It's not about
knowing it, it's about doing it and doing it consistently
every day. Right. People think they're healthy, but yet they
(19:27):
have you know, their coffee every morning, or their glass
of wine every night, or their cookie at every lunch right,
or your sedentary lifestyle or your stressful lifestyle, or you
(19:47):
don't sleep right. There's lots of things that make you healthy.
It's not just eating a salad and having an apple.
And we need to you know, eat our vegetables get
our fruit. Need that, but we need a lot more.
And stress is a big one, especially when we're talking
about your immune system. When you're stressed out, it weakens
(20:08):
your immune system. So if you're stressed, when you're exposed
to the virus such as COVID, you're exposed to some bacteria,
you're exposed to some parasite or worm, and you're stressed out.
Now your immune system suppressed. Now this stuff can take over.
Stress is the silent killer we have to reduce our stress.
(20:38):
You know, ninety nine percent of the stuff you stress
about never manifests into anything. Most people stress about things
that never happen. Just worry, worry. Right, your life is good.
(21:00):
Be grateful for your health and that will boost your
immune system. When you wake up in the morning, say
I'm so thankful I woke up. I'm thankful I could see.
I'm thankful I can hear. I'm thankful I could walk.
I'm thankful I could talk. I'm thankful I can move,
thankful I could pee. I'm thankful I could poop. I'm
(21:20):
thankful I could breathe. I'm thankful I have a roof
up over my head. I'm thankful I can close my
door at night. I'm thankful I've closed on my back.
I'm thankful I have food in my refrigerator. Do you
do that every morning? Because when you miss that stuff,
then you'll be thankful. But when you have it every day,
(21:44):
we stop becoming grateful. Be grateful for your life. You're not,
you know, at war in Ukraine and Israel. You're not
getting bombed out. You're not in the Middle East where
(22:06):
where women can't drive or go to school or show
their skin. You're in the best country in the world,
with the most opportunity, the most resources, the most money,
the most available for anything you want, the most freedom.
(22:27):
Turn off the news they're going to have you think
that we have a horrible country and we're horrible people. Now,
the only thing that's horrible about our country is our health.
It's our health. That's the worst thing about our country
(22:48):
is our health. We get the fattest people in the world,
the sickest people in the world, the most medication, the
most depressed, the most alcohol abuse, the most drug abuse,
the most suicides. We're unhealthy. That's what we gotta change.
But the news doesn't report how unhealthy we are. No
(23:12):
because it's sponsored by all these drug companies and they're
giving you their drugs to make your quote unquote healthy.
Got it. So we have the best country, but we
got to not follow what everyone else does as far
as health. Don't be the ninety nine percent, be the
one percent. Hey, don't eat what everyone else eats. Eat
(23:37):
like you're a hunter gatherer, like they've done for thousands
of years. Stop eating all this genetically modified food, all
this food sprayed with pesticides, herbicides. Drink this crappy water
in the plastic bottles, be exposed to all these heavy metals.
Gotta go old school healthy because when we're healthier than
(24:03):
our immune systems can work. When we're unhealthy, our immune
system gets suppressed. When people get sick, it's their body
telling them you're unhealthy. You're doing it wrong. So let's
do it right so you function better, feel better, and
live a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan and
(24:26):
you're listening to boost your brain power.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Now, you could get sick because your immune
system is underactive, but you can also get sick because
(25:45):
your immune system is overactive. In fact, that's even more common.
That's called autoimmune disease, where the immune system is overactive
and it's so overactive that the body is attacking itself.
And if it attacks your thyroid, they're gonna call it
(26:08):
hashimotos or Graves disease. If it attacks your skin and nails,
they're gonna call it psoriasis. If they tax your face,
they're gonna call it loupis. If it attacks your joints,
they're gonna call it rheumatoid arthritis. That attacks your gut,
you're gonna call it silliac disease. If it attacks your brain,
(26:30):
they're gonna call it multiple sclerosis. So we have all
these different autoimmune diseases, but they're all they are is
the body attacking itself, and depending on which part of
the body they're attacking, they'll label it according to that
autoimmune disease. But the solution is the same. It's to
calm down the overactive immune system. Everything's gone haywire. So
(26:54):
if the immune system is overactive, we need to relax it,
and there's lots of ways to relax. One of the
ways is to reduce any foods that are gonna trigger
autoimmune system. The biggest triggers are grains, dairy products, corn, soy, coffee,
(27:20):
and alcohol. Those are the big six triggers for autoimmune disease.
It's the overactive immune system. And when your immune system's overactive,
it's going to be all and stress mode. So these
type of people, they might have anxiety, they might have
(27:43):
troubles sleep, so it's not just the autoimmune disease, but
the brain is overactive. You might worry, panic, aggression, anger,
short fuse. Right, the nervous system's overactive. The immune system's overactive.
(28:05):
Guess what else gets overactive? The muscles. You get neck pain,
back pain, joint pain. It's all the muscles are in
spasm while the joints are inflamed. Everything's overactive. Might be overheated,
sweat a lot, right, So if you're overactive, you're overfiring,
(28:26):
you're overheated. We got to cool you down. One of
the best ways to cool you down is dipping your
face in a bowl of ice water that's fifty degreas
fahrenheit for thirty seconds, three times a day. That relaxes
your nervous system. It cools you down, It brings down
the inflammation, gets your para sympathetic nervous system working better,
(28:51):
helps with your heart, your lungs, your gut, your detoxification,
your immune system. Right, so sometimes the immune systems overactive.
We need to chill it out. So you're gonna avoid
those six foods. You're gonna try your dip in your
face in a bowl of ice water. Okay, then you
(29:14):
gotta get your circadium rhythms in order. So at nighttime,
we want to bring down cornisol. Cortisol's the stress hormone. Okay,
now what increases cortisol at night? The TV? What do
a lot of people do at night? They watch TV?
What else increases cortisol? The computer? What do a lot
(29:37):
of people do at night? They're on a computer. What
else stimulates cortisol? Your cell phone? What else people do
it night? They look at their cell phone, their iPad?
This all stimulates cornisol. So if you want to get
good sleep, good detoxification, you want to increase your energy,
(29:59):
your focus, your function. You want to calm down your
autoimmune disease, your nervous system dysfunction. You gotta avoid all
the electronics and think TV, iPad, computer, cell phone, avoid
it all, and you really want to do it four
(30:19):
hours before bedtime. So if you're going to bed at
ten pm, then you should be done with all screens
by six Unplug, turn off your WiFi. Okay, don't use
Wi Fi. Use ethernet, which is a wire cable. Don't
use bluetooth, use wire headphones. Stop using all the wireless technology.
(30:44):
Start using wire technology. That's much healthier. Don't do the
Wi Fi through the ethernet cable. It's much safer, okay, kinda,
you know, reduce your electromagnetic frequencies, okay, especially if you
have a one immune disease, because the more electromagnetic frequency
(31:05):
that increase in immune system trigger. So not only are
the six food's gonna trigger it, but the five G signals,
the Wi Fi signals, the Bluetooth signals. It's like you're
a walking microwave. I don't gotta calm down the immune system.
(31:26):
Heavy metals. We gotta get rid of those heavy metals.
They're everywhere. Your aluminum cans, aluminum foil, aluminum pans, the tingfoil.
Don't pack your food or cook your food with aluminum.
Use parchment paper, don't use aluminum pans, Use stainless steel. Okay,
(31:50):
get rid of that aluminum. Make sure your deorderment doesn't
have aluminum. Medicine has a lot of aluminum. There's aluminum
in the air that's gonna trigger on immune disease. Mercury
it's in the fish. It's also in some medicine in
the form of thimerisol. It's even in the flu vaccine. Lead,
(32:21):
it's in the old paint. It in the water pipes, arsenic,
it's an apple juice, rice round, rice, cadmium, it's in
fried chicken, fluorides in the water, in the toothpaste, and
(32:45):
the dentists. I mean, there's so much bad chemicals we're
exposed to. And what about the chemicals on the food, right,
So even if you're eating your fruits and veggies, it's
full of glycostate around, pesticides, herbs. Those trigger autoimmune disease
(33:05):
a lot of people. There's one autoimmune disease called Silly
Act disease where people of gluten intolerance. But we've been
finding it's actually more of the pesticize and herbicide that
people react to than the actual wheat, because when they
go to other countries that don't use the same chemicals
on their food, it doesn't trigger their Silly Act disease.
(33:28):
So a lot of times it's not actually the grains
and the wheat, but it's what they spray on the foods.
In America has the least stringent laws, and they let
the agricultural companies poison our foods with all these pesticides
and herbicize and chemicals and the genetically modified seeds and
the soil that they use in the air and the water,
(33:49):
it's all full of poison. It's very scary. You know,
we need clean water, we need clean food, we need
clean air, we need sunlight, clean soil. That's the most
important thing we want to get healthy. We need to
clean our environment. The environment, it's causing a lot of
(34:11):
our problems. So when you expose to these chemicals, these foods,
these toxins that the brain doesn't like, it triggers autoimmune disease.
So we have to avoid now stress. Emotional stress will
do it too. So not just the food, not just
the electro magnetic frequencies, not just all the chemicals, but
(34:39):
emotional stress will cause the autoimmune system to be triggered
and be overactive. So you gotta chill out and don't
be around people that stress you out. Surround yourself with happy,
healthy people, joyful, loving, charitable, not complainers, not negative people.
(35:07):
You want to be around positive people. They showed research
that it's actually more powerful to avoid negative thinking, negative talking,
negative people.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Than being positive thoughts, positive people, positive thinking, positive talking.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Okay, so avoid that negative talk. It's very powerful if
you avoid talking negative, especially about yourself. Don't even joke
about yourself in a negative way, all right, Avoid that
negative thought. The brain hears it and then it gets
wired that way, all right. So your immune system, these
(35:56):
autoimmune diseases can be reversed. So if you're taking thyroid
medication but you have autoimmune disease, you're doing the inappropriate treatment.
You gotta get to the root cause, right, So you
have all these autoimmune disease right, fibromyalogy, chronic fatigue, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, ciliac,
(36:24):
ibs MS. They all give you these medications to hide
the symptoms. Sometimes they even give you immunosuppressants. But what
if you actually got to the root cause and stopped
putting in your body things that are triggering your autoimmune disease,
and then your nervous system, your immune system destress and
calm down on their own. So you don't have to
(36:44):
see doctors, you don't have to see pills, you don't
have to do injections. You feel better, you function better,
and you live a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan,
and you're listening to boost your brain power.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
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 Kaplan and you will learn natural, integrative, and holistic
(37:22):
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
(37:45):
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact doctor Caplan, you can
call his team at two oh one two six one

Speaker 1 (37:58):
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 don't want your immune system underactive.
That's not good, and then you're gonna be more susceptible
to sickness. But you also don't want your immune system overactive.
(38:21):
That's going to create more problems. Then you're gonna have
to crash. So it's all about finding that happy medium,
and that goes with everything right. You don't want too
much B vitamins and you don't want too little B vitamins.
I see a lot of people overdo it with their supplements.
(38:42):
You don't want too much iron, you don't want too
little iron. You don't want too much magnesium. You don't
want too little magnesium. You don't want too much cholesterol,
but you don't want too little cholesterol. You don't want
your glucose numbers being too high, and you don't want
them being too low. It's all about finding that happy medium.
But some doctors, right, they just want to keep everything low. No,
(39:06):
that's not good. You don't want your blood pressure too low,
it's not good. You don't want your cholesterol too low,
that's not good. You want your thyroid levels too low,
that's not good. You got to keep an eye on it.
Sometimes the medication overworks. Sometimes the cure is worse than
the condition. That's why it's important if you are taking
(39:27):
medication to monitor, if you're taking blood pressure medication, monitor
your blood pressure make sure it doesn't get too low.
If you're taking diabetes medication, monitor and make sure you
don't get too low. For taking supplements, monitor, make sure
you don't get too high. Right, You got to monitor,
You got to test, You got to do the appropriate
(39:49):
analysis to see if you're doing what's going to help you.
What if you're doing is harmful. Supplements can be harmful,
Vitamins can be harmful, ivs can be harmful. Not just
medicine and surgeries. That's harmful. You know, if you take
something that you don't need, that's really bad. I can't
tell you how many patients are taking calcium that don't
(40:11):
need it and it becomes toxic. Or they're taking be
complex and they don't need it becomes toxic. They're taking
iron pills and they don't need it, it becomes toxic.
Or you're taking cholesterol pills you don't need it, it
becomes toxic. You want to be a minimalist. You want
(40:33):
to take the least amount of medicine, the least amount
of supplements, the least amount of vitamins, the least amount
of homeopathic, the least amount of herbs, and the least
amount of food. It's healthy to go to bed hungry.
You're not supposed to go to bed on a full stomach.
That's really bad for digestion. The best way to practice
is intermittent fasting. That's where you don't eat for four
(40:57):
hours before bed, and you don't eat for four hours
when you wake up. You're only eating eight hours in
the middle of the day when you're most active and
doing the most activity. Just logic. A lot of the
stuff they teach you is logic, right. Don't drink milk,
(41:18):
it's logic. You're not a baby. Milk is for babies.
Milk is for when you can't eat. That's the way
nature intended. It's logic, and it's definitely illogical to not
drink another species milk. Humans drink human milk, Goat drink
oat milk, Sheep bink drink sheep milk, and cows drink
cow's milk. We're the only species on the planet that
(41:40):
drinks cow's milk. Sheep milks goat milk. No, you should
only be drinking human milk, and you should only be
drinking human milk when you're an infant, and you can't.
You don't have teeth to digest food. Okay, So stop
drinking milk, stop eating cheese. I don't care if it's organic.
I don't care if it's you know, raw, unpasteurized, pasteurides, lactate,
(42:04):
lactose free, two fat free. I don't care what type
of milk it is. Don't drink it, don't eat it.
Don't have yogurt. I don't care if they tell you
it's got probiotics. Don't have cheese. I don't care what
they tell you. Don't eat creamy sauces, Caesar dressing, range dressing,
(42:26):
no parmesan, don't do it. Avoid it all sour cream, cream, cheese,
cottage cheese. We need to avoid all dairy products. They
do not do anything good for your body. Okay, avoid
(42:50):
all dairy products. It's just logic. Okay, logic. Eat real food. Okay,
it's not rocket science. Eat real food the way God
intended it from the earth, not in boxes and cans
and bags, packaged preserved non perishables. Come on. Eat whole
(43:14):
foods directly from the earth, one ingredient at a time.
And it's also good to eat the foods separately, like
eat fruit by itself and then have a salad. Eat
your vegetables then have your protein. You know, your fish
(43:36):
or your chicken, and your fat, your walnuts, your avocado. Okay,
eat those food separately. It's called food combining. You don't
want to mix up the enzymes. Most people there screwed
up gut. They don't have good acid, they don't have
good digestive enzymes, they don't have good bacteria. Their gut
microbiome is bad. And from whatever it is, taking antibiotics,
(43:59):
taking acids, all the purel all the poor diet, you know,
the poor sleep, poor autonomic nervous system. You know, But
how do you know if your brain's functioning well? If
it's not functioning well, You got to do tests. The
best test to do to tell whether your brain's overactive,
(44:19):
which is going to trigger your autoimmune system where everything's weak,
it's gonna trigger underactive immune system, or it's gonna tell
us you have a memory problem. Do you have troubles
with focus, motivation, organization, planning, shifting tests? You have depression? Anxiety?
Do you have short term memory loss, long term memory loss,
sequential memory, working memory? Do you have low dopamine, LOWESSEDO cold?
(44:42):
Do you have white matter inflammation in your brain? Do
you have toxic stress. Do you have a thigorary problem
in testinal inflammation? Do you have sensory issues seeing, hearing, balance?
It literally picks up everything. It's called a qEEG brain mapping.
There's no radiation, there's no risk, there's no side effect.
Super quick, takes less than a half an hour. It's
(45:04):
normally six hundred dollars to perform this test. We do
this in New York office in our New Jersey office.
But for the first seven people to call, text or
email they could get the qEEG brain mapping for only
twenty one dollars. The number is two zero one two
sixty one two one five zero, or you can email
(45:25):
info at Kaplanbrain and Body dot com. We're also gonna
give you a second gift. And the second gift is
called a VNNG video nostography or VOG video oculography. And
what this does is it measures your eye movements, and
it measures it when you go left and right and
(45:45):
up and down and fast and slow and light and
dark and with head movements and without movements, and it
can tell us which parts of the brain are functioning
well and which art and is it the right brain
that's the ficient. Is it the left brain, that's the
ficion is at the frontal, Is it the parietal? Is
it the cerebellum, is it the braining stamp. So it
could literally tell us not only which part of the
(46:07):
brain is not functioning, or it's also gonna tell us
which side of the brain is not functioning. And not
only is it gonna say which side of the brain,
is gonna say which side is underactive and which side
is overactive. So this test is really good because if
you have an overactive brain, that's gonna be more panic, worry, anger, aggression, anxiety, insomnia.
(46:28):
The mind race is ADHD always thinking, always worrying, anxiety, stress.
That is, if it's overactive, the VNG picks that up.
It's also going to pick up if you're underactive low motivation,
fatigue or memory, low energy, can't focus, can't think, slow metabolism, overweight,
(46:58):
low thyru where everything's underactive, all right, So the the
vng's gonna pick up that, and it's gonna say, hey,
do we got to focus more on the right sign
more on the left side. This test is also normally
six hundred dollars, but for the first seven people to
call text or email. You can get the VNG for
only twenty one dollars. All you have to do is call,
(47:21):
text or email. The phone number is two zero one
two sixty one two one five zero and the email
is info at Kaplinbrain and Body dot com. Now, the
last test gift that we're gonna give you is a
one on one with me, and I'm gonna go over
your qEEG brain mapping. I'm gonna go over your VNG.
(47:44):
I'm gonna go over any past tests you've done, MRIs, cats, cans,
go over any blood work you've done. Then I'm gonna
do my own evaluation. I'm gonna check out your memory,
your balance, your coordination, your range of motion, your posture.
I'm gonna check out your eyes, your is going to
listen to your heart, your gut, your lungs. We do
a full neurological and physical evaluation. It's normally six hundred dollars,
(48:09):
but for the first seven people to call text or
email you could get the one on one with me
where I come up with your diagnosis, your prognosis, treatment recommendations.
There's no commitment, there's no obligations, there's no tricks, there's
no bait and switch. Nothing. We just it's a gift
to the community. It's a one on one with me.
Instead of paying the normal six hundred dollars, you could
(48:33):
get it for only twenty one dollars. It's just so
we get to have a no pressure. You get to
know the practice and see if you're a fit for
the practice. So take advantage. It's very rare. You just
got to be one of the first seven people to call,
text or email. The phone number is two zero one
two sixty one two one five zero. You could call
(48:53):
our text or you can email info at capitlanbrainabody dot com.
And if you want to do all three tests, you
can do all three tests. Say I want to do
all three tests for twenty one dollars each. Take advantage.

Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Where are we talking about your immune system?
Your immune system is very important. When we think about
the immune system with the about fighting infections, fighting bacteria, viruses, parasites, worms.
(00:26):
Now we have to fight electromagnetic radiation. We have to
fight pollution, to fight the plastics, the heavy metals. There's
a lot we have to fight, especially in America because
we're exposed to more chemicals, pollutions, and stimulations more than
any other country. So we really want to make our
(00:49):
immune system strong. You have in your body it's called
white blood cells, red blood cells, and white blood cells.
The red blood cells give you your oxygen and your
blood flow, your circulation. Your white blood cells that's your
immune sett They help to fight off the bad stuff.
(01:14):
And there's different types of white blood cells. There's neutropills
they fight bacteria, and there's lymphocytes that fight viruses, and
there'scinophyls that fight different allergies. So we have all these
different things basophils and monocytes. So the human body is
amazing about all the cells and the systems they have
(01:34):
to keep you healthy. Okay, So your immune system needs
these white blood cells, needs these specific white blood cells
to fight off different things. You have different bacteria that
fight off different diseases. You have different bacteria that help
with your skin, different bacteria that help with your brain,
(01:55):
different bacteria to help with your gut. You know, there's
all different role goals and jobs for these types of
cells in your body. With the white blood cells, so
they're basically supposed to you know, when a bacteria comes in,
it's supposed to say, hey, we don't like this bacteria.
(02:18):
Let's kill it so it doesn't infect your body, replicate
and then take over. Now, why can these bacteria or
viruses replicate? Now they're going to be strong if your
body is acidic. I don't if you remember in chemistry
(02:40):
class growing up, you were talking about your pH levels.
So you can have an acidic environment or you can
have an alkaline environment. For your immune system to function best,
we need an alkaline environment. So we're going to avoid
things that make us a cidic, most of which comes
(03:02):
from food. Mosch of us comes with white food. You know,
the dairy products, the sugar products, the grains, and the
wheat products. Most of the white stuff creates the acidic environment.
Low oxygen creates an acidic environment. Dehydration creates an acidic environment. Okay,
(03:32):
so we need the proper food, we need the proper water.
We need to make sure we get enough oxygen. Oxygen
is so important, you know, especially in the New York
City area with so much pollution and they, you know,
chop down all the trees. That's why we have hyperbaric
(03:52):
oxygen chambers in both of our offices in New Jersey
and New York City. Our patients love it. So when
you have an oxygen chamber, it's one hundred percent oxygen
and no bacteria and viruses can live in one hundred
percent oxygen. When COVID happened, they started bringing these hyperbaric
(04:14):
oxygen chambers into hospitals because it was the one thing
that was killing the virus his oxygen. So if you
have chronic lime disease, if you have the long covid,
you know, if you have have chronic infections, you know,
(04:34):
the hyperbaric oxygen shit chamber is going to suffocate the bacteria.
They can't live with all the oxygen, just like we
wouldn't be able to live with carbon dioxide. They can't
live with the oxygen. The carbon dioxide makes you acidic,
the oxygen makes you alkaline. Okay, so we need the
(04:58):
hyperbaric oxygen chamber kills off all the bad stuff. I
don't care if it's yeast, mold, bacteria, virus, worms, parasites.
I can't live in oxygen. It's gonna boost your immune system,
get your immune system strong. You know, people, it's funny.
(05:23):
People come into my office and you know, they say, oh,
did you clean the oxygen chamber? And I said, of
course we cleaned it. Yes, we make sure we sanitize everything.
But then I also say, it's one hundred percent oxygen.
There is no bacteria that could live in there, right,
(05:44):
But you know, people still in that mindset. Oh, I
got a purel everything. I need antibacterial soap, and I
need antibacterial lotions and sprays, and you know, I need
to bring purel everywhere with me. And you know, is
that really the best way to do it. I don't know,
(06:06):
because the truth is, some bacteria are very good, and
what if you kill the good bacteria. So when you
take antibiotics, you kill the good bacteria. When you do
listering mouthwash, you kill the good bacteria. Right when you
(06:26):
put all these alcohol bleaches antibacterial, you kill off all
the good bacteria. Now your body is made of mostly bacteria.
Your body has more bacteria than cells, so you're walking
(06:49):
bacteria machine. Trillions of bacteria, that's all you are. But
we got to make sure we have more of the
good bacteria and less than a bad bacteria. So I
love probiotics, and I love switching up probiotics all the time.
You want to switch probiotics every two months, and you
don't get probiotics from yogurt. That's a big scam, all right.
(07:13):
It's not worth the effects of the dairy products for
the amount of probiotics you're getting in the yogurt not
worth it, just like the amount of is vertrol you
get from red wine is not worth drinking. So people say, oh,
you know red wine's healthy. Well, the skin of the
(07:34):
red grapes has res veratrol, which is an anti inflammatory
and anti aging, and res veratrol is very healthy, but
it's better to get it from Japanese not weed, to
actually eat the red grapes than to drink the wine
because the amount of wine you have to drink, the
alcohol kills your brain cells. It's not worth it, right,
So is it worth taking antibiotics? Is it worth killing
(07:58):
that bacteria when you're going to save all your good bacteria?
Now it's going to make you more susceptible to future
infections because it's going to ruin your immune system. The
more antibiotics you've taken in your life, the weaker your
immune system gets. The more anti acids you take, the
weaker your immune system gets because the stomach acid kills
(08:19):
off the bacteria and the viruses. When you have a
fever and you take medication to bring down your fever,
now your immune system gets weakened. You're heating up to
kill off the virus of the bacteria. Your body's smart.
It does it for a reason. We're not smarter than them.
(08:42):
So stop trying to outsmart God and your own body's
creation with drugs and medication. Let the body heal how
it's supposed to heal, and be smart about it. Right.
So you want to rink dirty water, No, get a
high duty filter, maybe just like a reverse osmosis something
(09:05):
that you get, you know, installed under the sink. If
you guys want a good guy, I have a really
good guy who's very affordable installs this in your house
or apartment. You know, you gotta filter out all the
bad stuff, and there's lots of stuff. Right. They have
fluoride they put in the water that lowers your IQ.
(09:30):
It's a non neurotoxin, So I make sure you filter
out the fluoride. I don't get fluoride toothpaste. I make
sure I don't get fluoride at the dentist. Right. Fluoride
is no good. They don't tell you that though. It's
a neurotoxin, right, So we gotta make sure we have
clean water. You don't want your immune system to overwork, right,
(09:53):
So I don't like antibiotics. I like probiotics, and we
gotta switch probiotics every two months because different bacteria have
different jobs. And you can also ferment vegetables and stuff
like that that helps to produce good bacteria. You could
do apple side or vinegar helps with the stomach acid
(10:17):
and then you can you know, have your foods with
vitamin C to boost your immune system. Those are like
mostly the citrus foods are really good for that. Zinc
also boosts your immune system. Oysters have good amount of
zinc in there. Vitamin D boost your immune system. The
(10:38):
sunlight is the best for vitamin D. So there's all
these easy ways to get your immune system strong. Make
sure you eat healthy, get good rest, reduce your stress, exercise,
get blood flow circulation. You could boost your immune system
on your own. You don't need to always take amiotics
(11:00):
and be scared of viruses and bacteria. Build your body strong,
so whatever they throw your way you can handle. Then
you'll function better, feel better, and live a better life.
This is doctor Eric Caplan, and you're listening to boost
your brain power.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
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
(11:40):
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 Caplin
is most famous for getting to the root cause of
a wide variety of brain and health conditions, rather than
(12:02):
treating symptoms with traditional medicines and risky surgeries. To contact
the doctor Kaplan, 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 1 (12:16):
Function Better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Talking about your immune system, right. We got
to strengthen your immune system. So when your immune system
is weak, there is an issue because it makes you
(12:40):
more susceptible to problems. That's why when they have like
the kids in the cancer wing in the hospital, when
they do the chemotherapy, he really weakens their immune system.
And they say, oh, you know, make sure if you're sick,
(13:02):
you don't come. They also make sure they say, if
you're vaccinated, don't come, because vaccines you could shed and
give the cancer patient, you know, whatever it is. If
you just got the measles or the moms or the
chicken pox or you know, one of those live viruses,
you could shed and you could give it to the
(13:27):
patient who has the weak immune system. A's is a
weak immune system, so they're very susceptible. Right, So you
know when people got COVID, some people would get it
and some people wouldn't. It's those that had a weak
immune system.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
How come two people can be in the same room,
one person gets COVID and one person doesn't. It's not
the virus, it's your immune system. So why I'm not
scared of anything because my immune system so strong. I
got people sneeze on me, and I won't get sick
(14:10):
because my immune system strong. You have satisfying that is
to walk around knowing that my immune system is so
strong that no one can get me sick. Even COVID
nineteen can't get me sick because that was a virus
(14:33):
that was produced in a lab through experiments to make
these superviruses. It's called gain of function research. And this
gain of function research, they were researching this coronavirus and
made it really strong and powerful, and unfortunately it got
(14:59):
let out and it's a around the world. So people
even with a little bit of weakness in their immune
system would get it. So there's always people that already
had a weakness to begin with a weak immune system,
whether they had diabetes or obesity, or heart disease or cancer.
It's like it's always a weakness, and that goes true
(15:21):
for anything, for lime disease as well. All right, I've
been bit by many tics. I've even seen you know,
the little rash there, but never manifested into a sickness
because my immune system is strong and I was able
to fight off the line. You know, as a doctor
(15:42):
worksposed to every virus because all these patients come to
us from all over the world. I'm in New York City.
It's exposed to everything. My immune system is strong and
handle it. And if you can handle it, then you
just kill off whatever virus you're exposed to, right, you
(16:03):
just kill it off. That's the way your immune system
is designed. But if you're exposed to too much and you're
already weak to begin with, now you can't handle it.
So you gotta get your immune system so strong I
can handle anything. Right, So take care of your body.
You only get one body, one immune system, one brain,
(16:26):
one gut, one heart. Take care of all your organs.
Take care of them because you want them to take
care of you as you get older. You don't want dementia,
you don't want Alzheimer's, you want Parkinson's, you want heart disease,
you don want cancer, you want diabetes, obesity, you don't
(16:47):
want depression, anxiety. Well, look, you don't want that stuff.
You gotta work for it because guess what when you
get sick, When your immune system is weak, that gets
you depressed, That ruins your mood, That takes away your motivation,
(17:07):
That creates more stress, that creates more sickness. Right, so
we need your energy strong, We need your joy in life,
strong immune system, lots of energy, good brain function. But
you gotta work for it. Nobody's gonna give you to you.
You gotta work for it. There's no magic pill. Everyone
(17:28):
wants these magic pills, whether it's a medicine, a drug,
an ivy, an injection, a supplement, an herb, a homeopathic remedy.
They're always looking for these pills and these quick fixes.
That's not health. You gotta work for it. Sorry, That's
the truth. Life is hard. Life is work. To be healthy,
(17:53):
especially in America, it's extremely hard. There's lots of things
working against you. It's hard to buy healthy food, it's
hard to be around positive people. It's hard not to
be exposed to all these electromagnetic radiation. It's hard not
(18:19):
to be polluted in your air. It's hard not to
have dirty water or dirty food. It's not easy being healthy.
You gotta go old school. No microwave, no preservatives, no
(18:39):
food dies, no artificial colorings, artificial flavorings, no packaging, no
boxes and cans and bags. Everything needs to be fresh.
You need to be outside, not on the TV, computer
and cell phone. You need to be in nature and
sun and oxygen, be exercise. You need to drink your water.
(19:02):
You need to eat your healthy food. You need to
get your rest, you need to reduce your emotional stress.
I mean, there's a formula to your health. And I
don't care if you know this already. It's not about
knowing it, it's about doing it and doing it consistently
every day. Right. People think they're healthy, but yet they
(19:27):
have you know, their coffee every morning, or their glass
of wine every night, or their cookie at every lunch right,
or your sedentary lifestyle or your stressful lifestyle, or you
(19:47):
don't sleep right. There's lots of things that make you healthy.
It's not just eating a salad and having an apple.
And we need to you know, eat our vegetables get
our fruit. Need that, but we need a lot more.
And stress is a big one, especially when we're talking
about your immune system. When you're stressed out, it weakens
(20:08):
your immune system. So if you're stressed, when you're exposed
to the virus such as COVID, you're exposed to some bacteria,
you're exposed to some parasite or worm, and you're stressed out.
Now your immune system suppressed. Now this stuff can take over.
Stress is the silent killer we have to reduce our stress.
(20:38):
You know, ninety nine percent of the stuff you stress
about never manifests into anything. Most people stress about things
that never happen. Just worry, worry. Right, your life is good.
(21:00):
Be grateful for your health and that will boost your
immune system. When you wake up in the morning, say
I'm so thankful I woke up. I'm thankful I could see.
I'm thankful I can hear. I'm thankful I could walk.
I'm thankful I could talk. I'm thankful I can move,
thankful I could pee. I'm thankful I could poop. I'm
(21:20):
thankful I could breathe. I'm thankful I have a roof
up over my head. I'm thankful I can close my
door at night. I'm thankful I've closed on my back.
I'm thankful I have food in my refrigerator. Do you
do that every morning? Because when you miss that stuff,
then you'll be thankful. But when you have it every day,
(21:44):
we stop becoming grateful. Be grateful for your life. You're not,
you know, at war in Ukraine and Israel. You're not
getting bombed out. You're not in the Middle East where
(22:06):
where women can't drive or go to school or show
their skin. You're in the best country in the world,
with the most opportunity, the most resources, the most money,
the most available for anything you want, the most freedom.
(22:27):
Turn off the news they're going to have you think
that we have a horrible country and we're horrible people. Now,
the only thing that's horrible about our country is our health.
It's our health. That's the worst thing about our country
(22:48):
is our health. We get the fattest people in the world,
the sickest people in the world, the most medication, the
most depressed, the most alcohol abuse, the most drug abuse,
the most suicides. We're unhealthy. That's what we gotta change.
But the news doesn't report how unhealthy we are. No
(23:12):
because it's sponsored by all these drug companies and they're
giving you their drugs to make your quote unquote healthy.
Got it. So we have the best country, but we
got to not follow what everyone else does as far
as health. Don't be the ninety nine percent, be the
one percent. Hey, don't eat what everyone else eats. Eat
(23:37):
like you're a hunter gatherer, like they've done for thousands
of years. Stop eating all this genetically modified food, all
this food sprayed with pesticides, herbicides. Drink this crappy water
in the plastic bottles, be exposed to all these heavy metals.
Gotta go old school healthy because when we're healthier than
(24:03):
our immune systems can work. When we're unhealthy, our immune
system gets suppressed. When people get sick, it's their body
telling them you're unhealthy. You're doing it wrong. So let's
do it right so you function better, feel better, and
live a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan and
(24:26):
you're listening to boost your brain power.

(24:51):
Caplan will be sharing with his audience, join the adventure

Speaker 1 (25:25):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Now, you could get sick because your immune
system is underactive, but you can also get sick because
(25:45):
your immune system is overactive. In fact, that's even more common.
That's called autoimmune disease, where the immune system is overactive
and it's so overactive that the body is attacking itself.
And if it attacks your thyroid, they're gonna call it
(26:08):
hashimotos or Graves disease. If it attacks your skin and nails,
they're gonna call it psoriasis. If they tax your face,
they're gonna call it loupis. If it attacks your joints,
they're gonna call it rheumatoid arthritis. That attacks your gut,
you're gonna call it silliac disease. If it attacks your brain,
(26:30):
they're gonna call it multiple sclerosis. So we have all
these different autoimmune diseases, but they're all they are is
the body attacking itself, and depending on which part of
the body they're attacking, they'll label it according to that
autoimmune disease. But the solution is the same. It's to
calm down the overactive immune system. Everything's gone haywire. So
(26:54):
if the immune system is overactive, we need to relax it,
and there's lots of ways to relax. One of the
ways is to reduce any foods that are gonna trigger
autoimmune system. The biggest triggers are grains, dairy products, corn, soy, coffee,
(27:20):
and alcohol. Those are the big six triggers for autoimmune disease.
It's the overactive immune system. And when your immune system's overactive,
it's going to be all and stress mode. So these
type of people, they might have anxiety, they might have
(27:43):
troubles sleep, so it's not just the autoimmune disease, but
the brain is overactive. You might worry, panic, aggression, anger,
short fuse. Right, the nervous system's overactive. The immune system's overactive.
(28:05):
Guess what else gets overactive? The muscles. You get neck pain,
back pain, joint pain. It's all the muscles are in
spasm while the joints are inflamed. Everything's overactive. Might be overheated,
sweat a lot, right, So if you're overactive, you're overfiring,
(28:26):
you're overheated. We got to cool you down. One of
the best ways to cool you down is dipping your
face in a bowl of ice water that's fifty degreas
fahrenheit for thirty seconds, three times a day. That relaxes
your nervous system. It cools you down, It brings down
the inflammation, gets your para sympathetic nervous system working better,
(28:51):
helps with your heart, your lungs, your gut, your detoxification,
your immune system. Right, so sometimes the immune systems overactive.
We need to chill it out. So you're gonna avoid
those six foods. You're gonna try your dip in your
face in a bowl of ice water. Okay, then you
(29:14):
gotta get your circadium rhythms in order. So at nighttime,
we want to bring down cornisol. Cortisol's the stress hormone. Okay,
now what increases cortisol at night? The TV? What do
a lot of people do at night? They watch TV?
What else increases cortisol? The computer? What do a lot
(29:37):
of people do at night? They're on a computer. What
else stimulates cortisol? Your cell phone? What else people do
it night? They look at their cell phone, their iPad?
This all stimulates cornisol. So if you want to get
good sleep, good detoxification, you want to increase your energy,
(29:59):
your focus, your function. You want to calm down your
autoimmune disease, your nervous system dysfunction. You gotta avoid all
the electronics and think TV, iPad, computer, cell phone, avoid
it all, and you really want to do it four
(30:19):
hours before bedtime. So if you're going to bed at
ten pm, then you should be done with all screens
by six Unplug, turn off your WiFi. Okay, don't use
Wi Fi. Use ethernet, which is a wire cable. Don't
use bluetooth, use wire headphones. Stop using all the wireless technology.
(30:44):
Start using wire technology. That's much healthier. Don't do the
Wi Fi through the ethernet cable. It's much safer, okay, kinda,
you know, reduce your electromagnetic frequencies, okay, especially if you
have a one immune disease, because the more electromagnetic frequency
(31:05):
that increase in immune system trigger. So not only are
the six food's gonna trigger it, but the five G signals,
the Wi Fi signals, the Bluetooth signals. It's like you're
a walking microwave. I don't gotta calm down the immune system.
(31:26):
Heavy metals. We gotta get rid of those heavy metals.
They're everywhere. Your aluminum cans, aluminum foil, aluminum pans, the tingfoil.
Don't pack your food or cook your food with aluminum.
Use parchment paper, don't use aluminum pans, Use stainless steel. Okay,
(31:50):
get rid of that aluminum. Make sure your deorderment doesn't
have aluminum. Medicine has a lot of aluminum. There's aluminum
in the air that's gonna trigger on immune disease. Mercury
it's in the fish. It's also in some medicine in
the form of thimerisol. It's even in the flu vaccine. Lead,
(32:21):
it's in the old paint. It in the water pipes, arsenic,
it's an apple juice, rice round, rice, cadmium, it's in
fried chicken, fluorides in the water, in the toothpaste, and
(32:45):
the dentists. I mean, there's so much bad chemicals we're
exposed to. And what about the chemicals on the food, right,
So even if you're eating your fruits and veggies, it's
full of glycostate around, pesticides, herbs. Those trigger autoimmune disease
(33:05):
a lot of people. There's one autoimmune disease called Silly
Act disease where people of gluten intolerance. But we've been
finding it's actually more of the pesticize and herbicide that
people react to than the actual wheat, because when they
go to other countries that don't use the same chemicals
on their food, it doesn't trigger their Silly Act disease.
(33:28):
So a lot of times it's not actually the grains
and the wheat, but it's what they spray on the foods.
In America has the least stringent laws, and they let
the agricultural companies poison our foods with all these pesticides
and herbicize and chemicals and the genetically modified seeds and
the soil that they use in the air and the water,
(33:49):
it's all full of poison. It's very scary. You know,
we need clean water, we need clean food, we need
clean air, we need sunlight, clean soil. That's the most
important thing we want to get healthy. We need to
clean our environment. The environment, it's causing a lot of
(34:11):
our problems. So when you expose to these chemicals, these foods,
these toxins that the brain doesn't like, it triggers autoimmune disease.
So we have to avoid now stress. Emotional stress will
do it too. So not just the food, not just
the electro magnetic frequencies, not just all the chemicals, but
(34:39):
emotional stress will cause the autoimmune system to be triggered
and be overactive. So you gotta chill out and don't
be around people that stress you out. Surround yourself with happy,
healthy people, joyful, loving, charitable, not complainers, not negative people.
(35:07):
You want to be around positive people. They showed research
that it's actually more powerful to avoid negative thinking, negative talking,
negative people.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Than being positive thoughts, positive people, positive thinking, positive talking.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
Okay, so avoid that negative talk. It's very powerful if
you avoid talking negative, especially about yourself. Don't even joke
about yourself in a negative way, all right, Avoid that
negative thought. The brain hears it and then it gets
wired that way, all right. So your immune system, these
(35:56):
autoimmune diseases can be reversed. So if you're taking thyroid
medication but you have autoimmune disease, you're doing the inappropriate treatment.
You gotta get to the root cause, right, So you
have all these autoimmune disease right, fibromyalogy, chronic fatigue, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, ciliac,
(36:24):
ibs MS. They all give you these medications to hide
the symptoms. Sometimes they even give you immunosuppressants. But what
if you actually got to the root cause and stopped
putting in your body things that are triggering your autoimmune disease,
and then your nervous system, your immune system destress and
calm down on their own. So you don't have to
(36:44):
see doctors, you don't have to see pills, you don't
have to do injections. You feel better, you function better,
and you live a better life. This is doctor Eric Kaplan,
and you're listening to boost your brain power.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
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 Kaplan and you will learn natural, integrative, and holistic
(37:22):
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
(37:45):
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact doctor Caplan, you can
call his team at two oh one two six one
two one five zero or visit his website at kaplindc
dot com.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
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 don't want your immune system underactive.
That's not good, and then you're gonna be more susceptible
to sickness. But you also don't want your immune system overactive.
(38:21):
That's going to create more problems. Then you're gonna have
to crash. So it's all about finding that happy medium,
and that goes with everything right. You don't want too
much B vitamins and you don't want too little B vitamins.
I see a lot of people overdo it with their supplements.
(38:42):
You don't want too much iron, you don't want too
little iron. You don't want too much magnesium. You don't
want too little magnesium. You don't want too much cholesterol,
but you don't want too little cholesterol. You don't want
your glucose numbers being too high, and you don't want
them being too low. It's all about finding that happy medium.
But some doctors, right, they just want to keep everything low. No,
(39:06):
that's not good. You don't want your blood pressure too low,
it's not good. You don't want your cholesterol too low,
that's not good. You want your thyroid levels too low,
that's not good. You got to keep an eye on it.
Sometimes the medication overworks. Sometimes the cure is worse than
the condition. That's why it's important if you are taking
(39:27):
medication to monitor, if you're taking blood pressure medication, monitor
your blood pressure make sure it doesn't get too low.
If you're taking diabetes medication, monitor and make sure you
don't get too low. For taking supplements, monitor, make sure
you don't get too high. Right, You got to monitor,
You got to test, You got to do the appropriate
(39:49):
analysis to see if you're doing what's going to help you.
What if you're doing is harmful. Supplements can be harmful,
Vitamins can be harmful, ivs can be harmful. Not just
medicine and surgeries. That's harmful. You know, if you take
something that you don't need, that's really bad. I can't
tell you how many patients are taking calcium that don't
(40:11):
need it and it becomes toxic. Or they're taking be
complex and they don't need it becomes toxic. They're taking
iron pills and they don't need it, it becomes toxic.
Or you're taking cholesterol pills you don't need it, it
becomes toxic. You want to be a minimalist. You want
(40:33):
to take the least amount of medicine, the least amount
of supplements, the least amount of vitamins, the least amount
of homeopathic, the least amount of herbs, and the least
amount of food. It's healthy to go to bed hungry.
You're not supposed to go to bed on a full stomach.
That's really bad for digestion. The best way to practice
is intermittent fasting. That's where you don't eat for four
(40:57):
hours before bed, and you don't eat for four hours
when you wake up. You're only eating eight hours in
the middle of the day when you're most active and
doing the most activity. Just logic. A lot of the
stuff they teach you is logic, right. Don't drink milk,
(41:18):
it's logic. You're not a baby. Milk is for babies.
Milk is for when you can't eat. That's the way
nature intended. It's logic, and it's definitely illogical to not
drink another species milk. Humans drink human milk, Goat drink
oat milk, Sheep bink drink sheep milk, and cows drink
cow's milk. We're the only species on the planet that
(41:40):
drinks cow's milk. Sheep milks goat milk. No, you should
only be drinking human milk, and you should only be
drinking human milk when you're an infant, and you can't.
You don't have teeth to digest food. Okay, So stop
drinking milk, stop eating cheese. I don't care if it's organic.
I don't care if it's you know, raw, unpasteurized, pasteurides, lactate,
(42:04):
lactose free, two fat free. I don't care what type
of milk it is. Don't drink it, don't eat it.
Don't have yogurt. I don't care if they tell you
it's got probiotics. Don't have cheese. I don't care what
they tell you. Don't eat creamy sauces, Caesar dressing, range dressing,
(42:26):
no parmesan, don't do it. Avoid it all sour cream, cream, cheese,
cottage cheese. We need to avoid all dairy products. They
do not do anything good for your body. Okay, avoid
(42:50):
all dairy products. It's just logic. Okay, logic. Eat real food. Okay,
it's not rocket science. Eat real food the way God
intended it from the earth, not in boxes and cans
and bags, packaged preserved non perishables. Come on. Eat whole
(43:14):
foods directly from the earth, one ingredient at a time.
And it's also good to eat the foods separately, like
eat fruit by itself and then have a salad. Eat
your vegetables then have your protein. You know, your fish
(43:36):
or your chicken, and your fat, your walnuts, your avocado. Okay,
eat those food separately. It's called food combining. You don't
want to mix up the enzymes. Most people there screwed
up gut. They don't have good acid, they don't have
good digestive enzymes, they don't have good bacteria. Their gut
microbiome is bad. And from whatever it is, taking antibiotics,
(43:59):
taking acids, all the purel all the poor diet, you know,
the poor sleep, poor autonomic nervous system. You know, But
how do you know if your brain's functioning well? If
it's not functioning well, You got to do tests. The
best test to do to tell whether your brain's overactive,
(44:19):
which is going to trigger your autoimmune system where everything's weak,
it's gonna trigger underactive immune system, or it's gonna tell
us you have a memory problem. Do you have troubles
with focus, motivation, organization, planning, shifting tests? You have depression? Anxiety?
Do you have short term memory loss, long term memory loss,
sequential memory, working memory? Do you have low dopamine, LOWESSEDO cold?
(44:42):
Do you have white matter inflammation in your brain? Do
you have toxic stress. Do you have a thigorary problem
in testinal inflammation? Do you have sensory issues seeing, hearing, balance?
It literally picks up everything. It's called a qEEG brain mapping.
There's no radiation, there's no risk, there's no side effect.
Super quick, takes less than a half an hour. It's
(45:04):
normally six hundred dollars to perform this test. We do
this in New York office in our New Jersey office.
But for the first seven people to call, text or
email they could get the qEEG brain mapping for only
twenty one dollars. The number is two zero one two
sixty one two one five zero, or you can email
(45:25):
info at Kaplanbrain and Body dot com. We're also gonna
give you a second gift. And the second gift is
called a VNNG video nostography or VOG video oculography. And
what this does is it measures your eye movements, and
it measures it when you go left and right and
(45:45):
up and down and fast and slow and light and
dark and with head movements and without movements, and it
can tell us which parts of the brain are functioning
well and which art and is it the right brain
that's the ficient. Is it the left brain, that's the
ficion is at the frontal, Is it the parietal? Is
it the cerebellum, is it the braining stamp. So it
could literally tell us not only which part of the
(46:07):
brain is not functioning, or it's also gonna tell us
which side of the brain is not functioning. And not
only is it gonna say which side of the brain,
is gonna say which side is underactive and which side
is overactive. So this test is really good because if
you have an overactive brain, that's gonna be more panic, worry, anger, aggression, anxiety, insomnia.
(46:28):
The mind race is ADHD always thinking, always worrying, anxiety, stress.
That is, if it's overactive, the VNG picks that up.
It's also going to pick up if you're underactive low motivation,
fatigue or memory, low energy, can't focus, can't think, slow metabolism, overweight,
(46:58):
low thyru where everything's underactive, all right, So the the
vng's gonna pick up that, and it's gonna say, hey,
do we got to focus more on the right sign
more on the left side. This test is also normally
six hundred dollars, but for the first seven people to
call text or email. You can get the VNG for
only twenty one dollars. All you have to do is call,
(47:21):
text or email. The phone number is two zero one
two sixty one two one five zero and the email
is info at Kaplinbrain and Body dot com. Now, the
last test gift that we're gonna give you is a
one on one with me, and I'm gonna go over
your qEEG brain mapping. I'm gonna go over your VNG.
(47:44):
I'm gonna go over any past tests you've done, MRIs, cats, cans,
go over any blood work you've done. Then I'm gonna
do my own evaluation. I'm gonna check out your memory,
your balance, your coordination, your range of motion, your posture.
I'm gonna check out your eyes, your is going to
listen to your heart, your gut, your lungs. We do
a full neurological and physical evaluation. It's normally six hundred dollars,
(48:09):
but for the first seven people to call text or
email you could get the one on one with me
where I come up with your diagnosis, your prognosis, treatment recommendations.
There's no commitment, there's no obligations, there's no tricks, there's
no bait and switch. Nothing. We just it's a gift
to the community. It's a one on one with me.
Instead of paying the normal six hundred dollars, you could
(48:33):
get it for only twenty one dollars. It's just so
we get to have a no pressure. You get to
know the practice and see if you're a fit for
the practice. So take advantage. It's very rare. You just
got to be one of the first seven people to call,
text or email. The phone number is two zero one
two sixty one two one five zero. You could call
(48:53):
our text or you can email info at capitlanbrainabody dot com.
And if you want to do all three tests, you
can do all three tests. Say I want to do
all three tests for twenty one dollars each. Take advantage.
