Speaker 3 (00:17):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. A lot of patients come to me for
ADD or ADHD, that's attention deficit disorder or attention deficit
(00:38):
and hyperactivity disorder. Basically, what this is people who have
troubles with focus. They get distracted easily. You know, they
can't follow through the hyperactivity one. The ADHD they can't
(01:00):
sit still, they got to move their legs or their hands.
So there is two different types of conditions, but they're
both related to lack of focus, lack of attenshin easily distractability.
And the past few years it's gotten worse and worse
(01:23):
and worse. People's attention span are decreasing. You know. It's
like these uh TikTok videos. Uh seven seconds swipe, seven
seconds swipe. So the attention span is very low. People
have a hard time even just you know, sitting and
reading a book. These days, people can't do it. They
have trouble sitting down and doing one thing uninterrupted, not
(01:48):
being distracted for an extended period of time. That's a
big problem, and a lot of it. We could blame
these smart devices. You know, we're constantly getting notifications, comments,
text messages, emails, we're getting reminders, we're getting you know,
vibrations and ringers, and we're constantly having things to distract us.
(02:15):
So what do we want to do is take away
those distractions. You have to do it. You got to
turn off your notifications, turn off your phone, turn off
your computer, turn off your TV, turn off your iPad,
put everything on airplane mode. So you can't get an email,
you can't get a text message, you can't get a
(02:37):
Facebook like or a comment or a share. You got
to turn it all off, out of sight, out of mind.
Don't turn it off and put your phone on the desk,
turn it off and hide the phone away in a draw. Okay,
you have to have it out of sight, out of mind.
I tell the same people when they're trying to eat healthy.
(02:59):
But if you don't have the donuts in the house.
It's much easier not to eat donuts. If you don't
have coca cola in your refrigerator. It's much easy not
to have coca cola. If you don't have the bread
or the milk, or the cheese or the ice cream,
you're not as likely to have it. Fill your cabinets
(03:21):
and your refrigerator and your freezer with only healthy food,
so you don't have the option. Right If I have
alcoholism in my family, okay, so I have to avoid
alcohol because if I drink it, I get into trouble.
It's not good. My brain can't handle it. So I
(03:44):
can't have alcohol. So how am I gonna avoid it.
I'm not gonna have it in the house. If it's
not in the house, I'm not gonna drink it. It's
that simple, Okay. So you have to have it out
of sight, out of mine. So get your distractions away
from you. Turn it off so you can't be distracted
(04:08):
by your phone going off in the middle of what
you're trying to accomplish. All right, So get rid of
those distractions, get rid of the TV. Cancel your cable,
cancel your Netflix. Is it doing any good for you,
cancel your whatever it is, HBO, Disney, ESPN. Are these
(04:34):
things being productive to your life? Are they helping you
keep focus? Now? What does help you keep focus? Calendar, schedule, reminders,
post it notes, right, you got to keep it written down,
got to be well organized, you know. So if you
(04:56):
have ADD ADHD, you have to to make up for it.
So you got to work harder than the average person,
just like I have to work harder than the average
person to avoid alcohol. If you have ADD in your
family or ADHD in your family, you might have to
work extra hard to avoid your distractions. Now, what part
(05:18):
of the brain does ADD or ADHD come from? Is
your frontal cortex, which is right in the front. So
when we have people diagnosed with ADD, a lot of
times when I evaluate their brain, I'm finding that they
(05:39):
have an underactive right frontal cortex. Eighty to ninety percent
of the patients that come in with an ADD diagnosis
actually have a right frontal cortex deficiency. Basically, that's a
weak right brain. Just like you have a weak muscle
right If you have a weak buys muscle, you could
(06:01):
do exercises to strengthen those biceps. If you have a
weak frontal cortex, you could do exercises to strengthen your
weak frontal cortex. Now, there's three things that the frontal
cortex really loves to get its activation. Number one are
(06:26):
quick eye movements. They're called sikats very quick eye movements.
So what you do is just you know, find a
dot on the wall, find another dot on the wall,
and then you count the three, say one, two, three,
and as quick as you can, you go to from
one dot to the next dot. And then you go one, two,
(06:47):
three and then go as quick as you can to
the next stop. So you gotta do quick eye movements
from one point to the other as fast as you can.
In the begining, keep it real close together so it's
a little bit easier. And then as your frontal cortex
gets better, then you can increase the distance between the
(07:11):
two targets or the dots. So those are called ciccods
quick eye movements, and when they're small sicods, they're called
micro sicods. Now we could be even more specific, and
I don't know for you, but let's say if I
find a patient who has a weak right frontal cortex,
(07:33):
we're gonna do siccods to the left, So quick eye
movements to the left help activate the weak right frontal cortex.
Now if you had a weak left frontal cortex, which
could also lead to ADD or ADHD, then you would
do these fast eye movements to the right. That's a
(07:53):
little brain exercise you could do to help increase your
frontal cortex. To help with focus, help not getting distracted,
help with concentration, help with ADD ADHD, which are these
developmental delays. The brain is delayed in development. So if
(08:14):
it's delayed, we got to catch up. And the way
to catch it up is to exercise the brain. So
the first way is a quick eye movement. The second
way is smell. Smell goes directly to the frontal cortex.
It's the only sense that goes directly to the brain.
(08:37):
You know, like touch and sight and sound, they go
to this relay center what's called the thalmus, and then
they go to the brain. Smell doesn't go to the
relay station. It literally goes directly to the brain. It's
the most powerful sense that we have. And many people
(08:58):
have lost their smell. If you've lost your smell, not
only can you have more add but it could lead
to dementia. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's. You know, forty years before Alzheimer's
or Parkinson's develop people start to lose their smell. And
(09:20):
people lose their smell for lots of different things. They
can get traumatic brain injury, they could get drug use, cigarettes, smoking,
they could have trauma. They could have chemical exposure, they
can have COVID nineteen caused a lot of people to
lose their smell and taste, you know. So it could
be a virus or a bacteria. It could be heavy metals,
(09:43):
mold exposure. There's so many things that could cause you
to lose your smell. And I'm not just talking about
a stuff nose. I'm talking about complete neurological disorders. That's
not good. If you lose your smell, that's a problem
because then you're losing input into your frontal cortex. So
(10:08):
start doing smell as therapy. And we want good smells,
not perfumes, not you know, artificial types of smells, not
you know, candels and incense and you know, fabreeze and
(10:31):
glade and not those types of smells. We don't like
those perfumes. In fact, never buy anything that says, you know,
perfume on it. All right. You don't want any artificial
smells on your soaps, on your shampoos, on your laundry detergent.
(10:57):
So they put all these perfumes and smells and toxic
chemicals to make them smell good. But that's causing a
lot of brain problems. So when I say smell, you
know you could use maybe essential oils and quality companies
like from Dotera or Young Living. Don't get it from
you know, Whole Foods or Trader Joe's. You want quality smell,
(11:22):
so smell goes directly into the frontal cortext. If you
have a weak right frontal cortex, we want to do
smell in the right nostril, and if we have a
weak left frontal cortex, you want to do smell in
the left nostril. You also want to practice smelling so
you smell. The best smell test is the peanut butter test.
(11:44):
You get a jar peanut butter and see how far
from your right nostril can you hold it and still smell.
So you cover your left nostril when you're testing your right,
and then check the other nostril. Cover your right nostril
to check your left, and you see how far can
you hold the peanut butter down below your nostril and
still be able to smell it. You compare your left
(12:05):
nostril to your right nostril, and then you want to
make sure that you know you could have better smell
in September than you did in August, so every month
you want to get better smell. Therefore, you're going to
increase the input into your frontal cortex, decreasing any symptoms
(12:25):
of add ADHD or memory problems, and you're going to
prevent dementia and Alzheimer's 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.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
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 Caplan and
(13:05):
you will learn natural, integrative and 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 Kaplan is most famous for
getting to the root cause of a wide variety of
(13:27):
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 kaplandc
dot com.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Function Banner, feel banner and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Caplin, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. So when you have ADD or ADHD, you
have an imbalance of your frontal cortex, which is the
(14:04):
front part of the lobes of your brain. This frontal
cortex can be strengthened. Just like you can increase input
into your muscles, you can increase input into your brain,
but you have to do activities that activate the brain appropriately.
(14:24):
So for your frontal coretex, you could do quick eye movements,
those are scads. Those help activate the frontal cortex. You
could do aromatherapy smell. Smell activates the frontal cortex, and
the third biggest thing that activates the frontal cortex are
(14:47):
hand movements, fine finger movements. The frontal cortex loves little
finger movements, you know, finger tapping, finger moving, memorizing different
finger positions. Use your hands and fingers to activate the
(15:08):
frontal cortex. So like one easy exercise you could do
with your left hand, do a peace sign like hold
up your middle finger and your pointer finger. Do a
peace sign like two fingers up, and on the other hand,
do an okay sign. You know, that's where you put
your finger, your pointer finger, and your thumb together to
(15:30):
make an O and then the other three fingers go up.
So you got piece on one side, okay on the
other side. And then what you do is you count
the three and you say one, two, three, and then
you switch at the same exact time, and the side
that had the peace sign becomes the okay sign and
the side that is the okay side becomes the peace sign.
(15:51):
That's using your little finger movements to help activate your
frontal cortex. Or you do different and hand gesture. So
you do remember that game growing up, rock paper scissors,
So you just do you know, rock paper scissors over
and over and over again in your hand for thirty seconds,
(16:15):
and then you switch the order and you go, you know,
rock scissors, paper, and then you go scissors, rock paper.
So you keep switching the order and timing how fast
you could do it over and over and over again
without messing up. That's a brain exercise which could activate
(16:38):
your frontal cortex. So that's the good news is even
if your frontal cortex isn't functioning well, now, you could
do brain exercises to get it to function better. Now.
I'm not the doctor that gives you the Riddlin, writes
a prescription for adderall, give you a xax. That's not
(17:01):
what I do. I don't write prescription medications. I'm not
a typical doctor like that. I'm a more holistic, integrative doctor.
I'm a functional doctor, so I don't prescribe medicine. I
don't do surgeries. It's different than a typical doctor that
you would think of. But we don't get typical results.
(17:25):
We get extraordinary results because we're changing lifestyle. We're rewiring
your brain in a process called neuroplasticity. Because we don't
need all this medication, especially for a child. When you
give a child adderall Riddlin, antidepressants, anti anxiety xanax, gabba
(17:48):
you know, when you give them all these medications, it
messes up their brain chemistry. Their brains are still developing.
You know, it's bad enough to give all these adults
these medications, but when we give them the kids, it's
a lot worse and they might not they might end
up being addicts, drug addicts, and they might end up
(18:09):
doing street drugs. And we don't want to wait until
you get some fetanol and let your kid die. So
we need to take action and see why does your
kid have add Why does your kid have ADHD. It's
not an adderall deficiency. That's not why they have it.
(18:30):
They have it because their brain is not functioning it properly.
Their brain isn't working at optimal levels. The brain is underactive,
it's weak. So you got to strengthen it. You got
to do brain exercises, and you might have to reduce stress. Right.
(18:52):
When people are in stress, it's harder to focus, it's
harder to think. So when people have add it's not
always just your frontal cortex, which is responsible for focus
concentration not getting distracted, right, So it could be more
than just an underactive frontal cortex. It could be your
(19:14):
in stress mode and that's distracting you. And now you
can't think because your mind is worried, you're anxious. It's
raising a million miles per hour. You got so many
things on your mind. You're in overwhelm, right, We see
that a lot. So if that's the primary issue, where
(19:36):
you're overwhelmed, you're overactive, you're in stress mode. Your cortisol
levels are high, you can't think, you can't focus, that's
a different approach. So for that, we might have to
relax your nervous system. So certain times we need to
stimulate this nervous system. Other times we might need to
relax the nervous system. And what are ways to relax
(19:57):
the nervous system. Let's do some brief exercises. The best
relaxation breathing exercise is to inhale for four seconds, hold
your breath for seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds.
And everybody gets stressed, right, everybody loses it sometime. I've
(20:19):
lost it myself, right, But you got to get back
on track. Right. You could lose it, you know, for
an hour, but then you got to get over it.
You know, my kid gets stressed or he gets anxious,
you know, I tell him, hey, it's okay if you
want to scream, you know, scream in the pillow, or
(20:39):
if you want to go down to the basement and
punch the punching bag. You know, let it out. You
don't want to keep in. You know, your anger or
your aggression. You got to let it out. So it's
okay to let it out. But you can't let it
out every day. You can't let it out all day.
You can't let it control your life. Right, so you could.
(21:01):
You know, everyone breaks down, Everyone loses it every once
in a while. Right, I've lost it. We've all had
our moments. But you got to get a quick recovery.
If it's a constant thing where you're losing it every morning,
every afternoon, every evening, every day, every week, every month,
every year, and you keep losing it and losing and
losing and more stress, more anxious, more overwhelm, more anger,
(21:24):
more aggression, then it's a problem. Okay, nobody's perfect, but
you gotta go in a good direction. So don't be
too hard on yourself. If you do something wrong, you
gotta forgive yourself. If you don't forgive yourself, no one will.
Everybody messes up, and it's okay to mess up, but
(21:47):
you gotta get back on the wagon. You gotta stay strong,
gotta be resilient. Life is tough. Life has a lot
of hardships. There's a lot of distraction. There's gonna be
a lot of people trying to take you down. But
you gotta say strong. You can't just be overwhelmed and
(22:08):
then give up and shut off. You gotta take action.
If you don't do anything, guess what you get more anxious,
more stress, more add more ADHD. Then you're gonna be
more prone to demanga, more prone to Alzheimer's, more prone
to parkins, It's more prone to diabetes, heart disease, obesity, cancer.
Don't be the ninety nine percent. You gotta be the
(22:32):
one percent. You gotta do what nobody else is willing
to do, and if you have to reduce your stress.
We got to have good strategies, whether it's practicing mindfulness.
Mindfulness is when you only do one thing at a time.
When you're eating dinner, you're eating dinner, you're smelling the food,
(22:54):
You're tasting the food. You're looking at all the different
colors of all the vegetables, beautiful smell, chew your food,
feel it in your mouth to it thirty six times.
You know, really enjoy the process of eating. But if
you're eating and watching TV at the same time, you're
(23:16):
not practicing mindfulness. If you're eating and reading the newspaper
at the same time, you're not practicing mindfulness. If you're
eating and you're on your cell phone, you're not practicing mindfulness.
So when you're eating, focus on eating. When you're at
the gym, focus at the gym. Don't be talking to
(23:38):
your friends. Don't be text messaging. Be in gym mode.
When you're at work, be in work mode. No checking
emails during work. You have to be in work mode.
That's practicing mindfulness. When you're going for a walk in nature,
(24:00):
be in nature. It doesn't count walking in nature. If
you're talking on the phone with your friend, be in nature.
Listen to the birds inhal that oxygen, feel that sunlight
on your skin, feel the grass on your feet. Be
(24:25):
in nature, enjoy it. You know. When you're studying, be
in study mode. Don't have music on in the background.
When you're at church, be in church mode. Don't be
checking your social media. That's not practicing mindfulness. When your
(24:51):
church be a church. When you're a gym. Be a gym.
When you're dinner, be at dinner. When you're at school,
be at school. Only do one thing at a time
that relaxes your brain. When you're doing multiple things at
a time, you get overwhelmed. So you want to practice mindfulness,
(25:13):
practice meditation to relax your brain. There's so many things
you could do on your own to relax your brain
to get you out of that stress mode so that
you function better, feel better, and live a better life.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Now when you HAVE add OR, adhd not only may
you have troubles with, focus concentration or get easily, distracted
you might even get some hyper activity where you can't,
relax you can't calm. Down you're constantly, moving, fidgeting, touching,
(27:08):
Playing so the nervous system is stressed, out and these
movements helps to reduce that stress or that. Hyperactivity what
are things you could do on your own to prevent
being in stress, mode to bring down that cortisol, levels
(27:28):
to calm down your sympathetic nervous. System cortisol is the stress,
hormone and one of the things that increases cortisol is
eating at. Night we want our cortisol very low at
night so we can, relax we can, rejuvenate. Reoxygenate but
(27:51):
if you eat at, night then you're gonna increase your.
Cortisol then you're not gonna get good, sleep then you're
gonna wake up already in dress. Mode gotta stop eating at.
Night it's one of the worst habits That americans. Do
eating late at. Night you want to go to bed
(28:15):
on an empty. Stomach you never want to go to
bed feeling. Full that's very. Dangerous then you can't digest your.
Food your meals take about three to four hours to,
digest so that means is you need three to four
hours from your last meal before. Bedtime so, idealistically we
(28:38):
want to go to bed at ten. Pm if we
go to bed at ten, pm that means that we
need to stop eating by six, pm so that gives
you four. Hours so your last meal should be at.
Six if you're eating and snacking eight o'clock nine o'clock at,
(28:59):
night you're not gonna get that good deep. Sleep you're
not gonna get the R E, m the rapid eye.
Movements you're not gonna get those delta brain waves which
are activated when you're in a deep. Sleep so if
you have increased cortisol levels at, night you're gonna not
(29:22):
gonna be in your deep sleep. Mode you're not gonna be.
Oxygenating your brain's not gonna function at a high. Level
you're gonna be all stressed. Out then you're not gonna
be able to focus and think and. Concentrate people, say,
OH i get brain FuG or even lack of, motivation, depression.
Anxiety it's not just a D d AND. Adhd there's
(29:42):
lots of effects that occur when you're not. Sleeping you
actually take years off your. Life it's not worth it
if you don't. Sleep you know the average person loses
three to five years of their. Life so just end
your dinner, early decrease your cortisol. Levels another thing that
(30:08):
increases cortisol levels at night is blue. Light that's on YOUR,
tv it's on your, computer it's on your cell, phone
it's on your, iPad it's on all these smart. Devices
the blue, light it stimulates, cortisol and we don't want
(30:32):
to have any blue light for four hours before. Bedtime
so just like if your bedtime is ten, o'clock you
don't want to eat past. Six if your bedtime is ten,
o'clock you don't want to have any electronics past. Six
(30:53):
so if you want to WATCH, tv do it before.
Six you want to check your, emails do it before.
Six you want to respond to some text. Messages do
it before. Six you want to go on your YouTube,
video do it before. Six you want to go on social, Media, Facebook, instagram,
TikTok whatever it, is do it before. Six do It
(31:14):
during the day when your brain wants, energy it wants,
cortasol it needs. Stimulation but at, night that's when we
need to chill. Out so no more electronics at. Night
turn off your. WiFi in, fact don't even Use Wi.
Fi use An ethernet cable so you don't get any
exposure from the electromagnetic. Radiation don't use your, bluetooth you, know,
(31:41):
earbuds use wire headphones right, so and try not to
use your cell, phone use a. Landline minimize your. Radiation
you have a. Choice there's certain things that you can't
control right. Now you can't, control you, know the FIVE.
G you can't control your, neighbors and as you can't
control you, know all these electrical. Towers right there are
(32:07):
certain things you can't. Control but stay away from the electrical.
Towers stay away from the FIVE g, Towers stay away
From Wi, Fi stay away from your, data your electromagnetic,
frequencies your microwave of in your, bluetooth your smart, watches
stay away from all these. Frequencies, okay don't have your
(32:29):
cell phone next to your head all. Night that is not.
Good you don't want any electronics within six feet of.
You and if you do have it within six feet of,
you turn it on airplane mode so you don't have any.
Radiation and if you need to speak to someone on the,
phone put it on. Speaker you could use your wire
headphones and put the phone far. Away you have to
(32:53):
decrease the amount of radiation because that's going to increase your,
cordisol your stress. Mode so we don't want any radiation at.
Night we don't want any food at, night we don't
want any blue light exposure at. Night and you want
to dim the, lights so you, know at six, o'clock
start to dim the. Lights at seven, o'clock turn off
a few more, lights eight, o'clock turn more lights, off nine,
(33:15):
o'clock almost all the lights, on just one little desk,
lamp and ten o'clock everything's off. There so your brain
starts to relax on its. Own you, know you mimic
the sun going, down but also use the sunlight to
reduce your. Stress so what you're gonna do is in the,
morning you walk outside for ten minutes so you can
(33:39):
see the sun start to. Rise then in the, afternoon
you go outside during lunch and you can see the
sun on top of, you so you know the sun's
strongest where you need. Energy but then you want to
do it one more. Time ten minutes during, sunset so
your brain sees the sun going, down so it knows
(34:02):
to relax and chill. Out all, Right so ten minutes
in the morning that increased, cortisol increase, energy increase, focus
ten minutes in the, afternoon keep you, going keep your mind,
focused and then in the, evening ten minutes during. Sunset,
okay now we've got to relax our. Brain we don't
have to focus so. Much we don't have to. Think
(34:23):
we just want to chill out and heal our, brain
reoxygenate our, brain replenish our, energy detox our bad. Stuff
so we're gonna make sure that we use the sunlight
to our advantage so that our brain and what's called
your pineal gland can get your circadium rhythms in order
to get you more relaxed at night so that you
(34:45):
could focus and conquer the next day with good brain. Function, Okay,
now other ways to reduce stress and cortisol are exercises
for your vagus. Nerve your vagus nerve gets you in
a rel black, state and one exercise you could do
to stimulate the vegus nerve is, gargling and gargle really. Intense,
(35:08):
now don't goggle with mouthwash because mouthwash is full of,
alcohol which is going to kill off what's called your oral.
Microbiome your oral, microbiome there's all these great. Bacteria there's
these bacteria in your mouth that help your immune system
and kill off all the bad stuff from getting into your.
(35:30):
Body it helps to digest your food, properly helps to
absorb your nutrients. Properly it helps prevent periodontal. Disease so you,
know it's kind of weird that we're always taught to
do these mouthwashes when there actually make us more prone to. Problems, okay,
(35:53):
now what we want to do is not kill the
gut or the oral, microbiome but actually just eliminate the bad.
Bacteria because most of the bacteria in our mouth is,
good but once in a while you're exposed to a bad,
bacteria whether it's something you touch and then touch your,
mouth or something that you eat or something that you
breathe or whatever it. Is but sometimes we're exposed to bad. Bacteria,
(36:17):
now the best way to kill off the bad bacteria
is through oil. Pulling what oil pulling is is you
take coconut oil and every, morning before you do, anything
before you even swallow or talk to, anybody you get
a big scoop of, oil coconut, oil and swish it
all around your mouth and squeeze it in between your
(36:37):
teeth and get it all over your gums and swish
it all. Around so rather than gargling with, listerine you're
going to swish your mouth with coconut oil for thirty
seconds to amend every single, morning and then spin it
out in the, garbage not in the pipes because that'll
mess it, up but that kills off all the bad
bacteria while sparing the good. Bacteria, okay so to reduce,
(37:03):
stress you're gonna, goggle which stimulates your vegas, nerve and
you're gonna do that with, water not with mouth, wash
and you're gonna do really. INTENSELY i want you to
goggle so loud that you scare your neighbors that they're,
like what is there like a dead animal in, there you,
know you really want to gargle, intensely and you gourgle
(37:24):
thirty seconds three times a, day stimulating your vegus. Nerve
the vegas nerve gets you out of that stress, mode
gets you in a more, calm relax. State and you
could do this, morning, afternoon, evening, anytime because ninety nine
percent of the day you want to be in a,
calm relax. Day you, know the only time you don't
want to be in a com relax state is when,
you're you, know running from an, attacker you're in a physical.
(37:47):
Fight you, know you gotta jump up and catch something really,
quick which is very. Rare so ninety nine percent of
a day we want to be in a relaxed. Date
gargling is one of the best exercises you could do
for the vegas. Nerve and another extra size is the gag,
reflex where you just take your, toothbrush go kind of
deep back in your throat and don't do it to
the point where you throw, up but you just get
a little. Gag and if you have a history of
(38:09):
bolimia anorexia eating, disorder definitely do not do. This but
if you're safe with, that you could definitely activate the
vegus nerve by doing the gag. Reflex doing gargling exercises
for thirty seconds three times a. Day the gag reflex
is very. Strong you only have to do, once so
you do these two exercises stimulating your vagus nerve getting
(38:32):
you out of stress. Mode this will help you function,
better feel, better and live a better. Life this is

facebook there's no text, messages there's no, emails there's no,
(41:08):
notifications no. Clicks you get rid of all the. Distractions
you have your time for one hour where you're just
focused on that one. Task might be your, homework might
be your regular. Work it might be an errand you
have to do. It might be certain you got a,
shop might be certain. Research you gotta do whatever it.
(41:28):
Is you focus and that's all you. Do you got
to get rid of those. Distractions out of, sight out of.
Mind there's so many distractions these, days you, know and
a lot of them are just like ads trying to
get you to buy their. Product, right you, KNOW i
was reading this article that, said for my, Generation i'm forty,
(41:52):
seven in two, years we see as many advertisements in
one to two years as our grandparents saw their entire.
Life and my grandparents lived to to you, know ninety,
(42:13):
Six so we see as many ads in one to
two years that our grandparents did their entire. Lots it's very.
Scary so we're getting an exponential amount of stimulation and
ads and people trying to convince you to buy their.
Products you, know if it's not a, commercial don't buy. It,
(42:37):
right what's not a, Commercial, Doritos Coca, Cola Burger, king
Bud light. Medication, Right they're always trying to make you
buy something that you don't. Need, right it's old, cereals,
right like frosted flakes and cocoa. POTS i don't even
(42:58):
know if they still have those, cereals but you, know
that's WHAT i was growing. Up that was the. Commercials you,
know you Got tony The, tiger and you, know you
got this bird eating the cocoa, puffs and you, know
just constantly selling us stuff that we don't. Need you,
know whether it's pop tarts or you, know cheetos or
laized potato, chips or pepsi or sprite or you, know
(43:19):
orange juice or you, know everything that's on a commercial is.
Unhealthy have you ever seen a kale, commercial a broccoli,
commercial a cucumber. Commercial, no you've never seen. It you
don't see an orange. Commercial you've seen orange juice. Commercial
so what does that mean eat? Oranges don't drink orange? Juice?
(43:43):
Right you see A starbucks, commercial don't drink? Coffee. Right
you don't, see you, know a a strawberry, commercial because
everybody knows strawberries are. Healthy, Right so you know you
might see like a canned corn, commercial, right or a
(44:08):
chef boy or d commercial and you don't buy, it
The elio's pizza, commercial or don't buy anything on a.
Commercial if it's, healthy they don't have to sell it
to you that you already know it's, healthy so that
commercials are trying to convince you that it's, healthy all,
right and just turn off THE tv in. General you,
(44:31):
know it's, like don't watch the. News the news is
not the. News you want to reduce your, stress then
turn off the. News you, know you gotta. Unplug what's the.
News it's, murder it's, crime it's, violence it's, wars it's,
corruption it's, disasters, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, monsoons. Tsunamis you, know it's,
(45:00):
inflation it's political, corruptions it's police, brutality it's you, know,
racism it's you, know stabbings and shootings and burnings and
fires and you know everything on the news is. Bad you,
know when you look at the, world you, know ninety
nine percent of the stuff that's going in the world
(45:21):
is pretty, good pretty, happy pretty, healthy pretty. Joyful one
percent is pretty, bad, okay and guess what the news
reports that one. Percent so they're not telling you the.
News they're telling you the one percent of the stuff
that's going on that's really. Bad they're not telling you
(45:42):
about the peaceful. Countries they're telling you if you are
the countries at. War they're not telling you about the
people to get. Along they're telling you about the people
that murder or kill each. Other and so they're not
telling you the real stuff that's. Happening that's WHY i
like reading the local, paper you, know just my local town.
Paper oh, no the Boy scouts are you, know planting
(46:06):
a new tree at the local, park and the senior
citizens have a card game On friday, night and the
local high school, team you, know made the playoffs for

(46:30):
come read their. Book like that's the. NEWS i want
to hear, local, happy fun. Events that's the NEWS i care.
ABOUT i don't want to hear about a stabbing or a,
fire or a, murder or a war or a. DISASTER
i don't want to hear about. It it creates too much,
stress you. Know and don't think that the news keeps you.
(46:53):
Informed it. Doesn't it just keeps you informed of the
bad things that are. Happening and why do you only
want to know about the bad things are. Happening because
if you want to only know about the bad things
that are, happening watch the. News if you want to be,
informed you got to be in the. Community you can't
be in your house WATCHING. Tv if you want to be,
(47:14):
informed you got to be out in the real world
and see how the real world. Works and if you,
see you, know some homeless, people you want to help
buy them some. Food. Right you, know WHEN i had
a good, friend you, know not just complaining about the
war In russia And, ukraine but he actually did something.
(47:35):
Right he went To. Poland he's a chef and he
cooked meals for people In. Ukraine he's taking, action he's
helping in the. Community that's doing. Something watching the news
doesn't do. ANYTHING i don't need to watch the news
to know that there's a war In. UKRAINE i don't
need to watch the news to know that there's a
war In. ISRAEL i know about, it and IF i
(47:57):
want to do something about, It i'll do something about. It.
Right IF i want to send some, Supplies i'll send.
Someplies IF i want to help out some, People i'll
help them. Out but watching the news doesn't keep me.
Informed that doesn't do. Anything so turn off the news.
Unplugged as soon as you read the, news as soon
as you turn on the, radio listen to the, news
as soon as you watch the news on THE, tv
(48:18):
as soon as you read it in the, newspaper your
stress mode goes. Up then you're not gonna be able to.
Focus you're not gonna be able to think because all this,
trauma all these, murders all these, incidents all these, disasters
they're gonna distract you from doing what you need to.
Do so unplug the news to really function at the
highest level. There, now how do you know what part
(48:41):
of your brain isn't functioning? Well is it your frontal,
cortex is it your sympathetic nervous, system your. Cerehbellum there's
all different parts of our brain that could influence troubles with, focus, concentration,
distraction getting too much. Stress the way to figure out
what part of the brain is not functioning is called
THE qEEG brain, mapping and we're gonna give a gift
(49:03):
to all my. Listeners this brain mapping actually analyzes all
the different areas of your, brain and it's gonna tell,
us do you have, depression do you have, anxiety do
you have brain, fog low? Motivation do you have LOW
dopamineo or? Acetylcholine do you have thyroid? Problem do you
have intestinal? Inflammation you have sensory, issues memory, issues balance.
(49:24):
Problems so it literally breaks down all the different areas
of your brain and it maps it out and tells
us which areas of the brain are functioning well and
which airs the brain are not functioning. Well based on the,
RESULTS i could diagnose where your problem's coming from and
then give you recommendations on how to improve. It but
just keep in mind, AGAIN i do not prescribe. MEDICINE
(49:46):
i do not do, surgeries so don't come to me
if you're just looking for a, quick easy pill to fix,
Everything that's not WHAT i. Do but if you want
to figure out in this brain scan what part of
the brain's not functioning, well creating your troubles with focus
or distractions or low motivation or poor memory or whatever it.
Is let's do this brain. Mapping it's normally six hundred
dollars for the first seven people to, call text or.
(50:08):
Email you can 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
info At Kaplan brain and body dot. Com i'm also
gonna give a second, gift which is called A vng video,
(50:30):
Andestography and it's these tests where you wear these goggles
and it measures your eye movements left and right and
up and down and fast and slow and dark and,
light and it measures the balance of left and right
and is the right brain week remember we're talking about
with add OR. ADHD a lot of times it's the
right brain that's. Weak THE vng is the best test
to pick that, up because sometimes it is the left,
(50:52):
brain and THE vng will pick up it's the left,
brain and it'll pick up which lobe is. Underactive you,
know that's more of the low motivation and the depression
and what part is. Overactive that's more like the, hyperactivity the,
distractions the, anxiety the troubles with, sleep the mind raising
a million miles per. Hour so THE vng will pick
up which areas are underactive and which areas are. Overactive
(51:14):
and THEN i could give you my. Suggestions, hey by
doing these activities that will stimulate that part of your underactive,
brain and doing these other activities will calm down your
overactive brain to get you out of that stress. Mode
THE vng is great for. That and keep in mind
there's no, radiation there's no contrast, fluid there's no small.
Tube all these tests are completely safe with no. Risk
(51:35):
THE vng is normally six hundred, dollars but for the
first seven people to, call text or, email you could
get THE vng for only twenty one. Dollars the number
to call or text is two zero one two six

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. A lot of patients come to me for
ADD or ADHD, that's attention deficit disorder or attention deficit
(00:38):
and hyperactivity disorder. Basically, what this is people who have
troubles with focus. They get distracted easily. You know, they
can't follow through the hyperactivity one. The ADHD they can't
(01:00):
sit still, they got to move their legs or their hands.
So there is two different types of conditions, but they're
both related to lack of focus, lack of attenshin easily distractability.
And the past few years it's gotten worse and worse
(01:23):
and worse. People's attention span are decreasing. You know. It's
like these uh TikTok videos. Uh seven seconds swipe, seven
seconds swipe. So the attention span is very low. People
have a hard time even just you know, sitting and
reading a book. These days, people can't do it. They
have trouble sitting down and doing one thing uninterrupted, not
(01:48):
being distracted for an extended period of time. That's a
big problem, and a lot of it. We could blame
these smart devices. You know, we're constantly getting notifications, comments,
text messages, emails, we're getting reminders, we're getting you know,
vibrations and ringers, and we're constantly having things to distract us.
(02:15):
So what do we want to do is take away
those distractions. You have to do it. You got to
turn off your notifications, turn off your phone, turn off
your computer, turn off your TV, turn off your iPad,
put everything on airplane mode. So you can't get an email,
you can't get a text message, you can't get a
(02:37):
Facebook like or a comment or a share. You got
to turn it all off, out of sight, out of mind.
Don't turn it off and put your phone on the desk,
turn it off and hide the phone away in a draw. Okay,
you have to have it out of sight, out of mind.
I tell the same people when they're trying to eat healthy.
(02:59):
But if you don't have the donuts in the house.
It's much easier not to eat donuts. If you don't
have coca cola in your refrigerator. It's much easy not
to have coca cola. If you don't have the bread
or the milk, or the cheese or the ice cream,
you're not as likely to have it. Fill your cabinets
(03:21):
and your refrigerator and your freezer with only healthy food,
so you don't have the option. Right If I have
alcoholism in my family, okay, so I have to avoid
alcohol because if I drink it, I get into trouble.
It's not good. My brain can't handle it. So I
(03:44):
can't have alcohol. So how am I gonna avoid it.
I'm not gonna have it in the house. If it's
not in the house, I'm not gonna drink it. It's
that simple, Okay. So you have to have it out
of sight, out of mine. So get your distractions away
from you. Turn it off so you can't be distracted
(04:08):
by your phone going off in the middle of what
you're trying to accomplish. All right, So get rid of
those distractions, get rid of the TV. Cancel your cable,
cancel your Netflix. Is it doing any good for you,
cancel your whatever it is, HBO, Disney, ESPN. Are these
(04:34):
things being productive to your life? Are they helping you
keep focus? Now? What does help you keep focus? Calendar, schedule, reminders,
post it notes, right, you got to keep it written down,
got to be well organized, you know. So if you
(04:56):
have ADD ADHD, you have to to make up for it.
So you got to work harder than the average person,
just like I have to work harder than the average
person to avoid alcohol. If you have ADD in your
family or ADHD in your family, you might have to
work extra hard to avoid your distractions. Now, what part
(05:18):
of the brain does ADD or ADHD come from? Is
your frontal cortex, which is right in the front. So
when we have people diagnosed with ADD, a lot of
times when I evaluate their brain, I'm finding that they
(05:39):
have an underactive right frontal cortex. Eighty to ninety percent
of the patients that come in with an ADD diagnosis
actually have a right frontal cortex deficiency. Basically, that's a
weak right brain. Just like you have a weak muscle
right If you have a weak buys muscle, you could
(06:01):
do exercises to strengthen those biceps. If you have a
weak frontal cortex, you could do exercises to strengthen your
weak frontal cortex. Now, there's three things that the frontal
cortex really loves to get its activation. Number one are
(06:26):
quick eye movements. They're called sikats very quick eye movements.
So what you do is just you know, find a
dot on the wall, find another dot on the wall,
and then you count the three, say one, two, three,
and as quick as you can, you go to from
one dot to the next dot. And then you go one, two,
(06:47):
three and then go as quick as you can to
the next stop. So you gotta do quick eye movements
from one point to the other as fast as you can.
In the begining, keep it real close together so it's
a little bit easier. And then as your frontal cortex
gets better, then you can increase the distance between the
(07:11):
two targets or the dots. So those are called ciccods
quick eye movements, and when they're small sicods, they're called
micro sicods. Now we could be even more specific, and
I don't know for you, but let's say if I
find a patient who has a weak right frontal cortex,
(07:33):
we're gonna do siccods to the left, So quick eye
movements to the left help activate the weak right frontal cortex.
Now if you had a weak left frontal cortex, which
could also lead to ADD or ADHD, then you would
do these fast eye movements to the right. That's a
(07:53):
little brain exercise you could do to help increase your
frontal cortex. To help with focus, help not getting distracted,
help with concentration, help with ADD ADHD, which are these
developmental delays. The brain is delayed in development. So if
(08:14):
it's delayed, we got to catch up. And the way
to catch it up is to exercise the brain. So
the first way is a quick eye movement. The second
way is smell. Smell goes directly to the frontal cortex.
It's the only sense that goes directly to the brain.
(08:37):
You know, like touch and sight and sound, they go
to this relay center what's called the thalmus, and then
they go to the brain. Smell doesn't go to the
relay station. It literally goes directly to the brain. It's
the most powerful sense that we have. And many people
(08:58):
have lost their smell. If you've lost your smell, not
only can you have more add but it could lead
to dementia. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's. You know, forty years before Alzheimer's
or Parkinson's develop people start to lose their smell. And
(09:20):
people lose their smell for lots of different things. They
can get traumatic brain injury, they could get drug use, cigarettes, smoking,
they could have trauma. They could have chemical exposure, they
can have COVID nineteen caused a lot of people to
lose their smell and taste, you know. So it could
be a virus or a bacteria. It could be heavy metals,
(09:43):
mold exposure. There's so many things that could cause you
to lose your smell. And I'm not just talking about
a stuff nose. I'm talking about complete neurological disorders. That's
not good. If you lose your smell, that's a problem
because then you're losing input into your frontal cortex. So
(10:08):
start doing smell as therapy. And we want good smells,
not perfumes, not you know, artificial types of smells, not
you know, candels and incense and you know, fabreeze and
(10:31):
glade and not those types of smells. We don't like
those perfumes. In fact, never buy anything that says, you know,
perfume on it. All right. You don't want any artificial
smells on your soaps, on your shampoos, on your laundry detergent.
(10:57):
So they put all these perfumes and smells and toxic
chemicals to make them smell good. But that's causing a
lot of brain problems. So when I say smell, you
know you could use maybe essential oils and quality companies
like from Dotera or Young Living. Don't get it from
you know, Whole Foods or Trader Joe's. You want quality smell,
(11:22):
so smell goes directly into the frontal cortext. If you
have a weak right frontal cortex, we want to do
smell in the right nostril, and if we have a
weak left frontal cortex, you want to do smell in
the left nostril. You also want to practice smelling so
you smell. The best smell test is the peanut butter test.
(11:44):
You get a jar peanut butter and see how far
from your right nostril can you hold it and still smell.
So you cover your left nostril when you're testing your right,
and then check the other nostril. Cover your right nostril
to check your left, and you see how far can
you hold the peanut butter down below your nostril and
still be able to smell it. You compare your left
(12:05):
nostril to your right nostril, and then you want to
make sure that you know you could have better smell
in September than you did in August, so every month
you want to get better smell. Therefore, you're going to
increase the input into your frontal cortex, decreasing any symptoms
(12:25):
of add ADHD or memory problems, and you're going to
prevent dementia and Alzheimer's so you function better, feel better,
and live a better life. This is doctor eric Kaplan,

skin and digestive problems. Doctor Kaplan is most famous for
getting to the root cause of a wide variety of
(13:27):
brain and health conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact doctor Kaplin, you can

Speaker 3 (13:43):
Function Banner, feel banner and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Caplin, and you're listening to boost your
brain power. So when you have ADD or ADHD, you
have an imbalance of your frontal cortex, which is the
(14:04):
front part of the lobes of your brain. This frontal
cortex can be strengthened. Just like you can increase input
into your muscles, you can increase input into your brain,
but you have to do activities that activate the brain appropriately.
(14:24):
So for your frontal coretex, you could do quick eye movements,
those are scads. Those help activate the frontal cortex. You
could do aromatherapy smell. Smell activates the frontal cortex, and
the third biggest thing that activates the frontal cortex are
(14:47):
hand movements, fine finger movements. The frontal cortex loves little
finger movements, you know, finger tapping, finger moving, memorizing different
finger positions. Use your hands and fingers to activate the
(15:08):
frontal cortex. So like one easy exercise you could do
with your left hand, do a peace sign like hold
up your middle finger and your pointer finger. Do a
peace sign like two fingers up, and on the other hand,
do an okay sign. You know, that's where you put
your finger, your pointer finger, and your thumb together to
(15:30):
make an O and then the other three fingers go up.
So you got piece on one side, okay on the
other side. And then what you do is you count
the three and you say one, two, three, and then
you switch at the same exact time, and the side
that had the peace sign becomes the okay sign and
the side that is the okay side becomes the peace sign.
(15:51):
That's using your little finger movements to help activate your
frontal cortex. Or you do different and hand gesture. So
you do remember that game growing up, rock paper scissors,
So you just do you know, rock paper scissors over
and over and over again in your hand for thirty seconds,
(16:15):
and then you switch the order and you go, you know,
rock scissors, paper, and then you go scissors, rock paper.
So you keep switching the order and timing how fast
you could do it over and over and over again
without messing up. That's a brain exercise which could activate
(16:38):
your frontal cortex. So that's the good news is even
if your frontal cortex isn't functioning well, now, you could
do brain exercises to get it to function better. Now.
I'm not the doctor that gives you the Riddlin, writes
a prescription for adderall, give you a xax. That's not
(17:01):
what I do. I don't write prescription medications. I'm not
a typical doctor like that. I'm a more holistic, integrative doctor.
I'm a functional doctor, so I don't prescribe medicine. I
don't do surgeries. It's different than a typical doctor that
you would think of. But we don't get typical results.
(17:25):
We get extraordinary results because we're changing lifestyle. We're rewiring
your brain in a process called neuroplasticity. Because we don't
need all this medication, especially for a child. When you
give a child adderall Riddlin, antidepressants, anti anxiety xanax, gabba
(17:48):
you know, when you give them all these medications, it
messes up their brain chemistry. Their brains are still developing.
You know, it's bad enough to give all these adults
these medications, but when we give them the kids, it's
a lot worse and they might not they might end
up being addicts, drug addicts, and they might end up
(18:09):
doing street drugs. And we don't want to wait until
you get some fetanol and let your kid die. So
we need to take action and see why does your
kid have add Why does your kid have ADHD. It's
not an adderall deficiency. That's not why they have it.
(18:30):
They have it because their brain is not functioning it properly.
Their brain isn't working at optimal levels. The brain is underactive,
it's weak. So you got to strengthen it. You got
to do brain exercises, and you might have to reduce stress. Right.
(18:52):
When people are in stress, it's harder to focus, it's
harder to think. So when people have add it's not
always just your frontal cortex, which is responsible for focus
concentration not getting distracted, right, So it could be more
than just an underactive frontal cortex. It could be your
(19:14):
in stress mode and that's distracting you. And now you
can't think because your mind is worried, you're anxious. It's
raising a million miles per hour. You got so many
things on your mind. You're in overwhelm, right, We see
that a lot. So if that's the primary issue, where
(19:36):
you're overwhelmed, you're overactive, you're in stress mode. Your cortisol
levels are high, you can't think, you can't focus, that's
a different approach. So for that, we might have to
relax your nervous system. So certain times we need to
stimulate this nervous system. Other times we might need to
relax the nervous system. And what are ways to relax
(19:57):
the nervous system. Let's do some brief exercises. The best
relaxation breathing exercise is to inhale for four seconds, hold
your breath for seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds.
And everybody gets stressed, right, everybody loses it sometime. I've
(20:19):
lost it myself, right, But you got to get back
on track. Right. You could lose it, you know, for
an hour, but then you got to get over it.
You know, my kid gets stressed or he gets anxious,
you know, I tell him, hey, it's okay if you
want to scream, you know, scream in the pillow, or
(20:39):
if you want to go down to the basement and
punch the punching bag. You know, let it out. You
don't want to keep in. You know, your anger or
your aggression. You got to let it out. So it's
okay to let it out. But you can't let it
out every day. You can't let it out all day.
You can't let it control your life. Right, so you could.
(21:01):
You know, everyone breaks down, Everyone loses it every once
in a while. Right, I've lost it. We've all had
our moments. But you got to get a quick recovery.
If it's a constant thing where you're losing it every morning,
every afternoon, every evening, every day, every week, every month,
every year, and you keep losing it and losing and
losing and more stress, more anxious, more overwhelm, more anger,
(21:24):
more aggression, then it's a problem. Okay, nobody's perfect, but
you gotta go in a good direction. So don't be
too hard on yourself. If you do something wrong, you
gotta forgive yourself. If you don't forgive yourself, no one will.
Everybody messes up, and it's okay to mess up, but
(21:47):
you gotta get back on the wagon. You gotta stay strong,
gotta be resilient. Life is tough. Life has a lot
of hardships. There's a lot of distraction. There's gonna be
a lot of people trying to take you down. But
you gotta say strong. You can't just be overwhelmed and
(22:08):
then give up and shut off. You gotta take action.
If you don't do anything, guess what you get more anxious,
more stress, more add more ADHD. Then you're gonna be
more prone to demanga, more prone to Alzheimer's, more prone
to parkins, It's more prone to diabetes, heart disease, obesity, cancer.
Don't be the ninety nine percent. You gotta be the
(22:32):
one percent. You gotta do what nobody else is willing
to do, and if you have to reduce your stress.
We got to have good strategies, whether it's practicing mindfulness.
Mindfulness is when you only do one thing at a time.
When you're eating dinner, you're eating dinner, you're smelling the food,
(22:54):
You're tasting the food. You're looking at all the different
colors of all the vegetables, beautiful smell, chew your food,
feel it in your mouth to it thirty six times.
You know, really enjoy the process of eating. But if
you're eating and watching TV at the same time, you're
(23:16):
not practicing mindfulness. If you're eating and reading the newspaper
at the same time, you're not practicing mindfulness. If you're
eating and you're on your cell phone, you're not practicing mindfulness.
So when you're eating, focus on eating. When you're at
the gym, focus at the gym. Don't be talking to
(23:38):
your friends. Don't be text messaging. Be in gym mode.
When you're at work, be in work mode. No checking
emails during work. You have to be in work mode.
That's practicing mindfulness. When you're going for a walk in nature,
(24:00):
be in nature. It doesn't count walking in nature. If
you're talking on the phone with your friend, be in nature.
Listen to the birds inhal that oxygen, feel that sunlight
on your skin, feel the grass on your feet. Be
(24:25):
in nature, enjoy it. You know. When you're studying, be
in study mode. Don't have music on in the background.
When you're at church, be in church mode. Don't be
checking your social media. That's not practicing mindfulness. When your
(24:51):
church be a church. When you're a gym. Be a gym.
When you're dinner, be at dinner. When you're at school,
be at school. Only do one thing at a time
that relaxes your brain. When you're doing multiple things at
a time, you get overwhelmed. So you want to practice mindfulness,
(25:13):
practice meditation to relax your brain. There's so many things
you could do on your own to relax your brain
to get you out of that stress mode so that
you function better, feel better, and live a better life.

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Now when you HAVE add OR, adhd not only may
you have troubles with, focus concentration or get easily, distracted
you might even get some hyper activity where you can't,
relax you can't calm. Down you're constantly, moving, fidgeting, touching,
(27:08):
Playing so the nervous system is stressed, out and these
movements helps to reduce that stress or that. Hyperactivity what
are things you could do on your own to prevent
being in stress, mode to bring down that cortisol, levels
(27:28):
to calm down your sympathetic nervous. System cortisol is the stress,
hormone and one of the things that increases cortisol is
eating at. Night we want our cortisol very low at
night so we can, relax we can, rejuvenate. Reoxygenate but
(27:51):
if you eat at, night then you're gonna increase your.
Cortisol then you're not gonna get good, sleep then you're
gonna wake up already in dress. Mode gotta stop eating at.
Night it's one of the worst habits That americans. Do
eating late at. Night you want to go to bed
(28:15):
on an empty. Stomach you never want to go to
bed feeling. Full that's very. Dangerous then you can't digest your.
Food your meals take about three to four hours to,
digest so that means is you need three to four
hours from your last meal before. Bedtime so, idealistically we
(28:38):
want to go to bed at ten. Pm if we
go to bed at ten, pm that means that we
need to stop eating by six, pm so that gives
you four. Hours so your last meal should be at.
Six if you're eating and snacking eight o'clock nine o'clock at,
(28:59):
night you're not gonna get that good deep. Sleep you're
not gonna get the R E, m the rapid eye.
Movements you're not gonna get those delta brain waves which
are activated when you're in a deep. Sleep so if
you have increased cortisol levels at, night you're gonna not
(29:22):
gonna be in your deep sleep. Mode you're not gonna be.
Oxygenating your brain's not gonna function at a high. Level
you're gonna be all stressed. Out then you're not gonna
be able to focus and think and. Concentrate people, say,
OH i get brain FuG or even lack of, motivation, depression.
Anxiety it's not just a D d AND. Adhd there's
(29:42):
lots of effects that occur when you're not. Sleeping you
actually take years off your. Life it's not worth it
if you don't. Sleep you know the average person loses
three to five years of their. Life so just end
your dinner, early decrease your cortisol. Levels another thing that
(30:08):
increases cortisol levels at night is blue. Light that's on YOUR,
tv it's on your, computer it's on your cell, phone
it's on your, iPad it's on all these smart. Devices
the blue, light it stimulates, cortisol and we don't want
(30:32):
to have any blue light for four hours before. Bedtime
so just like if your bedtime is ten, o'clock you
don't want to eat past. Six if your bedtime is ten,
o'clock you don't want to have any electronics past. Six
(30:53):
so if you want to WATCH, tv do it before.
Six you want to check your, emails do it before.
Six you want to respond to some text. Messages do
it before. Six you want to go on your YouTube,
video do it before. Six you want to go on social, Media, Facebook, instagram,
TikTok whatever it, is do it before. Six do It
(31:14):
during the day when your brain wants, energy it wants,
cortasol it needs. Stimulation but at, night that's when we
need to chill. Out so no more electronics at. Night
turn off your. WiFi in, fact don't even Use Wi.
Fi use An ethernet cable so you don't get any
exposure from the electromagnetic. Radiation don't use your, bluetooth you, know,
(31:41):
earbuds use wire headphones right, so and try not to
use your cell, phone use a. Landline minimize your. Radiation
you have a. Choice there's certain things that you can't
control right. Now you can't, control you, know the FIVE.
G you can't control your, neighbors and as you can't
control you, know all these electrical. Towers right there are
(32:07):
certain things you can't. Control but stay away from the electrical.
Towers stay away from the FIVE g, Towers stay away
From Wi, Fi stay away from your, data your electromagnetic,
frequencies your microwave of in your, bluetooth your smart, watches
stay away from all these. Frequencies, okay don't have your
(32:29):
cell phone next to your head all. Night that is not.
Good you don't want any electronics within six feet of.
You and if you do have it within six feet of,
you turn it on airplane mode so you don't have any.
Radiation and if you need to speak to someone on the,
phone put it on. Speaker you could use your wire
headphones and put the phone far. Away you have to
(32:53):
decrease the amount of radiation because that's going to increase your,
cordisol your stress. Mode so we don't want any radiation at.
Night we don't want any food at, night we don't
want any blue light exposure at. Night and you want
to dim the, lights so you, know at six, o'clock
start to dim the. Lights at seven, o'clock turn off
a few more, lights eight, o'clock turn more lights, off nine,
(33:15):
o'clock almost all the lights, on just one little desk,
lamp and ten o'clock everything's off. There so your brain
starts to relax on its. Own you, know you mimic
the sun going, down but also use the sunlight to
reduce your. Stress so what you're gonna do is in the,
morning you walk outside for ten minutes so you can
(33:39):
see the sun start to. Rise then in the, afternoon
you go outside during lunch and you can see the
sun on top of, you so you know the sun's
strongest where you need. Energy but then you want to
do it one more. Time ten minutes during, sunset so
your brain sees the sun going, down so it knows
(34:02):
to relax and chill. Out all, Right so ten minutes
in the morning that increased, cortisol increase, energy increase, focus
ten minutes in the, afternoon keep you, going keep your mind,
focused and then in the, evening ten minutes during. Sunset,
okay now we've got to relax our. Brain we don't
have to focus so. Much we don't have to. Think
(34:23):
we just want to chill out and heal our, brain
reoxygenate our, brain replenish our, energy detox our bad. Stuff
so we're gonna make sure that we use the sunlight
to our advantage so that our brain and what's called
your pineal gland can get your circadium rhythms in order
to get you more relaxed at night so that you
(34:45):
could focus and conquer the next day with good brain. Function, Okay,
now other ways to reduce stress and cortisol are exercises
for your vagus. Nerve your vagus nerve gets you in
a rel black, state and one exercise you could do
to stimulate the vegus nerve is, gargling and gargle really. Intense,
(35:08):
now don't goggle with mouthwash because mouthwash is full of,
alcohol which is going to kill off what's called your oral.
Microbiome your oral, microbiome there's all these great. Bacteria there's
these bacteria in your mouth that help your immune system
and kill off all the bad stuff from getting into your.
(35:30):
Body it helps to digest your food, properly helps to
absorb your nutrients. Properly it helps prevent periodontal. Disease so you,
know it's kind of weird that we're always taught to
do these mouthwashes when there actually make us more prone to. Problems, okay,
(35:53):
now what we want to do is not kill the
gut or the oral, microbiome but actually just eliminate the bad.
Bacteria because most of the bacteria in our mouth is,
good but once in a while you're exposed to a bad,
bacteria whether it's something you touch and then touch your,
mouth or something that you eat or something that you
breathe or whatever it. Is but sometimes we're exposed to bad. Bacteria,
(36:17):
now the best way to kill off the bad bacteria
is through oil. Pulling what oil pulling is is you
take coconut oil and every, morning before you do, anything
before you even swallow or talk to, anybody you get
a big scoop of, oil coconut, oil and swish it
all around your mouth and squeeze it in between your
(36:37):
teeth and get it all over your gums and swish
it all. Around so rather than gargling with, listerine you're
going to swish your mouth with coconut oil for thirty
seconds to amend every single, morning and then spin it
out in the, garbage not in the pipes because that'll
mess it, up but that kills off all the bad
bacteria while sparing the good. Bacteria, okay so to reduce,
(37:03):
stress you're gonna, goggle which stimulates your vegas, nerve and
you're gonna do that with, water not with mouth, wash
and you're gonna do really. INTENSELY i want you to
goggle so loud that you scare your neighbors that they're,
like what is there like a dead animal in, there you,
know you really want to gargle, intensely and you gourgle
(37:24):
thirty seconds three times a, day stimulating your vegus. Nerve
the vegas nerve gets you out of that stress, mode
gets you in a more, calm relax. State and you
could do this, morning, afternoon, evening, anytime because ninety nine
percent of the day you want to be in a,
calm relax. Day you, know the only time you don't
want to be in a com relax state is when,
you're you, know running from an, attacker you're in a physical.
(37:47):
Fight you, know you gotta jump up and catch something really,
quick which is very. Rare so ninety nine percent of
a day we want to be in a relaxed. Date
gargling is one of the best exercises you could do
for the vegas. Nerve and another extra size is the gag,
reflex where you just take your, toothbrush go kind of
deep back in your throat and don't do it to
the point where you throw, up but you just get
a little. Gag and if you have a history of
(38:09):
bolimia anorexia eating, disorder definitely do not do. This but
if you're safe with, that you could definitely activate the
vegus nerve by doing the gag. Reflex doing gargling exercises
for thirty seconds three times a. Day the gag reflex
is very. Strong you only have to do, once so
you do these two exercises stimulating your vagus nerve getting
(38:32):
you out of stress. Mode this will help you function,
better feel, better and live a better. Life this is
