Little one: Welcome to my Mommy’s podcast.
Howdy, and welcome to the Wellness Mama Podcast. I’m Katie from wellnessmama.com, and I’m again at this time with Dr. Patrick Porter to speak extra particularly about methods to assist the mind after TBIs and learn how to chase away age-related cognitive decline of the mind. And Dr. Patrick Porter has been on this podcast earlier than, however he’s an award-winning writer and speaker particular to using mind well being and what he calls technology-enhanced meditation. And he actually pioneered using brainwave entrainment to enhance sleep, focus, readability, vitality, et cetera, and is basically on the forefront of this analysis. He has wide-ranging information on numerous subjects.
And on this specific episode, we go deep on what occurs to the mind when you’ve a head harm, learn how to assist resolve that, what’s happening within the mind after we see decline with age and learn how to ward that off.

He has a lot information on this subject. It was actually enjoyable to get to go deep with him at this time. And he additionally makes a very compelling case for the way all of us have had some sort of head trauma, even when we haven’t had a recognized TBI as a result of we fall so many instances after we’re little and studying learn how to stroll. And so how to verify our brains keep in good well being as we become old and in addition learn how to use these methods with youngsters to reinforce their studying and their sleep, which as a mother myself, this stuff positively assist the peace and calm of all the family. So with none additional wait, let’s be a part of Dr. Porter. Dr. Porter, welcome again. Thanks for being right here once more.
Dr. Porter: It’s nice to be right here. Thanks for having me.
Katie: Properly, I’ll hyperlink to our first episode if individuals haven’t heard it for context, we go deep on some mind science. And on this one, I needed to get much more nuanced and particular and discuss particular protocols and methods to assist with issues like TBIs and in addition with age-related cognitive decline. And I do know that you simply’ve completed numerous work in each of these areas. Definitely, TBIs have gotten numerous press time with the give attention to this within the NFL and soccer basically. However that is one thing that impacts not simply athletes, however individuals in all walks of life. And I do know you’ve developed some actually particular protocols which can be particularly useful with these. For some background context, are you able to clarify possibly what’s happening within the mind when somebody has both a mind harm or age-related cognitive decline? After which we’ll speak by way of a number of the protocols that assist.
Dr. Porter: Yeah. Properly, what’s taking place from the attitude of mitochondrial well being is when you’ve a blunt pressure trauma, which each individual has on the market. I imply, earlier than you’re 5, six years previous, you fall, you’ve fallen down two to a few thousand instances, you recognize, so that you’ve had some. In truth, some individuals will say you’re you’re the results of how your mind reworked after your entire TBIs as a baby. You understand, you recognize, I didn’t understand that until I had grandkids and, you recognize, little Eli likes to run into tables and counter tops, you recognize. And now he’s 11. So however he’s we predict he’s made from rubber, you recognize, however the actuality is that his mind remains to be being affected.
So what occurs is when there’s trauma, then the blood goes to move into that space. They name it a hematoma. Now, in the event you don’t get that to these toxins out of there, that blood, that unhealthy blood, it simply sits there. So some individuals, even 10 years later, have this huge ball of blood that’s nonetheless there, and the mind will rework round it. So when you’ve these like CTEs or these gentle, they name gentle, however they’re, you recognize, they’re nonetheless fairly extreme, these little head accidents, they begin to add up till you get this huge one. They name it TBI, you recognize. After which, however what occurs is that if they’re not sleeping properly, the one time the mind detoxes is throughout degree 4 sleep. So we have to do one thing to get into that degree 4 sleep. In truth, they name it the glial–lymphatic system within the mind. And earlier than 2016, they didn’t even know we had one. In truth, there’s not a physiology e-book printed on the earth that earlier than 2015 has a lymph system within the mind, which is form of unimaginable as a result of in the event you took physiology in faculty, they mentioned anyplace there’s a blood vessel, there’s a lymph vessel. However for some motive, they mentioned we didn’t have it as a result of it solely activates throughout degree 4 sleep, which is that deep sleep that occurs once you’re non-responsive.
So principally, consider it such as you’re turning down. Consider your mitochondria on a dimmer change. And once you get a TBI or any form of drawback, it’s going to show that quantity down. It’s going to show the sunshine depth down. Our mitochondria is supposed to soak up gentle and transmit gentle. In order we age, what occurs is, sadly, when you’ve got numerous irritation. Now, once I was rising up again within the 70s, 60s and 70s, I by no means knew anyone that had age-related dementia. No one. No one in my household. My household had been Iowa farmers, and each considered one of them was 93. I keep in mind 97 years previous. All of them had been taking part in playing cards. They had been all very cognitive. However our way of life, I feel, is what’s killing our brains as a result of we’re not getting outdoors. These had been farmers. They’d be outdoors within the daylight. More often than not, they’re doing train. They’re transferring their physique. They’re respiration. They’re doing all this stuff.
So I feel what’s taking place on the age-related mind is when we now have plaquing, and one of many worst issues any individual can do for his or her physique is take statins. And I’d get some flack about that, however statins are worst factor you possibly can put in your physique. Your mind is all fats. So once you strip out fat out of the bloodstream, the statins don’t care. They don’t go, oh, we’re not going to strip out the fats from the mind. They’re going to strip it out of in all places. And I’ve met so many individuals which have had issues with neuropathy of their fingers and toes, peripheral neuropathy. However that tells me that their mind can be being compromised. And nearly 90% of the individuals I see like that inform me they’re on statins. And I say, please get off them. You want, what they’re stripping out your physique wants. What you should do is do away with the hearth. I inform individuals, individuals are attempting to color their home whereas their home is on fireplace. When you have all this irritation, you possibly can’t simply take statins. And there’s a saying we love, it’s you possibly can’t have the capsule with out the talent. So you possibly can’t take this capsule and suppose it’s going to cease your irritation. All it does is cease your protecting mechanisms. You don’t have the signs. So you’re taking a blood take a look at and it says, oh, wow, your ranges are proper. Your lipids are proper. However the actuality is that it’s defending you. So do one thing in regards to the irritation.
And what I like to recommend individuals do, simply so I don’t have an issue with no answer, is get actual vitamin C. Many of the vitamin C that’s available on the market isn’t actual. It’s artificial. You’ve acquired to get actual vitamin C. And in the event you don’t know what that’s, go to Optimum Well being Programs and put within the phrase BrainTap and also you get a deal there. However that’s the vitamin C that I take advantage of. It’s actual. The physique can metabolize, and I do three tablets within the morning and three at evening. And it takes care of the irritation as you age. It’s going to deal with age-related irritation. You are able to do, now, Darin Olien, who’s the, he’s principally the man that produced Zac Efron’s collection, All the way down to Earth with Zac Efron on Netflix. I take what he, he has one other concoction the place he has MSM on this specialised Vitamin C. And I’ve began taking that two months in the past and located, that’s very first thing within the morning. Now, some individuals can’t deal with that as a result of it doesn’t style good. However I do numerous issues that don’t style good as a result of I do know they’re good for me. You understand, however the, you recognize, there you actually need to make use of pure methods to do this.
One of many different methods to do it’s take actual tart cherry juice, combine it half and half with water. Drink that as your, as a substitute of getting sodas or beer or one thing like that. You understand, that’s going to additionally deliver down your irritation. These are simply a few fast ideas as a result of that’s what’s taking place to the growing older mind. When your mind is on fireplace, when you’ve got a 75-watt gentle bulb, however you’re operating 100 watts by way of it, you’re going to burn that out. So our mind, when you’ve an excessive amount of irritation, the mind goes to really feel the brunt of that first. And so irritation is what’s inflicting the issues we’re seeing. In truth, they name Alzheimer’s now sort 3 diabetes. So once you consider irritation and also you consider stress problems, most individuals don’t understand this, however the largest motive that is taking place is stress. Our livers maintain 25 grams of sugar. And the job of the liver is to carry that sugar simply in case a saber-toothed tiger or and comes up behind you. So it may pump it within the bloodstream. Your muscle tissues now have the sugar they should run away from that hazard. However the issue is that now so many individuals are triggering this stress response from their telephones, from their tv, from their information, no matter it’s, that now we now have an insulin drip. Which implies that the methods aren’t working the way in which their designed. We had been purported to have this stress response possibly three to 5 instances every week. Most individuals have that within the morning. You understand, and so when you’ve this insulin drip, what that quantities to is insulin is a fat-storage hormone. So particularly for the moms on the market, in the event you’re questioning, you recognize, I don’t even eat sugar. I don’t know why I’m chubby. It’s not what you’re consuming. It’s what’s consuming you. We have to management that liver as a result of that liver produces the sugar. That’s why we don’t really want sugar in our weight loss program. Our physique produces all of the sugar we want from the meals we devour, whether or not or not it’s greens or fruit or some form of protein, you recognize, the fiber that we’re getting out of the vegatables and fruits. Our physique’s designed to do this. However the issue is that once you eat out of a can, bottle or a wrapper and with elements we are able to’t learn, our physique doesn’t know what to do with that stuff. So it creates irritation.
So we’re creating irritation by meals we’re consuming. That’s unhealthy for the mind. We’re creating irritation by not transferring. You understand, there’s a saying you’ve most likely heard it that sitting is the brand new smoking, proper? Properly, truly sitting is worse than smoking as a result of people who smoke now must stand up, go outdoors, and smoke, proper? In order that they’re standing up, they’re strolling, not less than they’re transferring the place now they’re in. However in the event you’re sitting for greater than two hours, 10% of the oxygen in your mind is depleted. So when you concentrate on that, I imply, that’s nearly as unhealthy as sporting a masks. So, I imply, you’ve this horrible state of affairs happening.
After which individuals are not doing something to enhance their mind perform. They’re not doing any mind health like BrainTap or meditation or yoga, tai chi, breath work. They’re not doing something. They’re simply principally watching tv or letting life occur to them as a substitute of by way of them, which is a giant distinction. So the factor about, in the event you’re on the market frightened about Alzheimer’s or dementia, then do one thing about it now. It’s essentially the most preventable illness on earth as a result of it wasn’t even round 20 years in the past. Twenty, 25 years in the past, it was a really uncommon one that would get these illnesses. However now it’s a way of life illness. When any individual tells me it’s a illness, it’s a hereditary. No, it’s principally it’s a way of life illness as a result of we did a research in down in Florida in Tampa space with Dr. Kelly Miller. He wrote a e-book known as Saving Your Mind. He has acquired a chapter in there about BrainTap as a result of we took each individual off the dementia scale in six weeks.
So if you can begin early, you should get vitality. Essentially the most under-prescribed nutrient on earth, all people’s all the time searching for that magical capsule. Essentially the most under-prescribed nutrient on earth is gentle. Our physique wants gentle. Each cell wants gentle. So in the event you’re not capable of get out, they usually say now we’re not even capable of get sufficient gentle after we stroll outdoors due to what they’re doing to our ambiance. So we now have, you recognize, all of the air pollution and every part that’s in our ambiance. So when we have to subsidize, identical to we do with nutritional vitamins and minerals, we have to give ourselves gentle. And that’s why retinal flashing, we use retinal flashing and we use the lights within the ears, which we are able to get into in a bit of bit, with BrainTap. We have to get vitality into the mind so the mind can do the work that it must do. If it’s slowed down with toxins, there’s a saying, your mind isn’t functioning due to three causes. Ideas might be your ideas, you recognize, adverse thinkers or individuals who take a look at life as a collection of threats. Their mind isn’t going to work in addition to any individual who appears at life as a collection of challenges.
There’s only a huge research, I’m truly writing an article about it on our weblog about optimism. I used to be informed my nickname, my moniker is Dr. Constructive. In order that they mentioned, I’m too rattling constructive on a regular basis. I mentioned, properly, I’d reasonably be constructive and be upset each occasionally than get up every single day upset. After which when happiness comes, I miss it. You understand, so many individuals are like that. So it’s both ideas, trauma, or toxins. So the one method we’re going to do away with the toxins is we’ve acquired to eat higher. We’ve acquired to maneuver. We’ve acquired to breathe. We’ve acquired to sleep. And we’ve acquired to do one thing to train that mind so we are able to get into that deep rhythm sleep that’s going to detox our mind.
And these are all issues that I really like when any individual says, no, it’s hereditary. No, it isn’t. If it was hereditary, it could have been round in 1900s and 1800s. It wasn’t. And other people go, properly, individuals are dwelling longer now. Properly, we’ve proven even individuals over 100 years previous can enhance their mind perform. So your mind by no means stops creating, studying, and therapeutic itself. Your mind is designed to heal identical to your physique is designed to heal, however you’ve acquired to offer it the suitable supplies.
Katie: Yeah, I feel that’s so key. I say on right here lots that on the finish of the day, we’re every our personal major healthcare supplier as a result of we’re answerable for the every day decisions that impression our our bodies and our brains and our well being. And I additionally suppose we’re, on the finish of the day, are our personal healers, and nobody can try this work apart from us. However I really like when there are instruments like this that assist that course of turn out to be far more environment friendly. And I really feel like each time you communicate, I take so many notes, however I really like that you simply introduced up the liver facet as a result of I do know we’re seeing actually an enormous statistical rise in issues like non-alcoholic fatty liver illness, which might even be in that class that didn’t exist a number of many years in the past. And now we’re seeing it in kids. And so, to me, it is a fairly imminent drawback and in addition one which’s inside our management to vary, which I feel we now have much more energy in that realm than we predict we do typically. And that these are some easy methods, possibly not straightforward, however easy, that we are able to do that may actually begin shifting that.
I feel that the deep sleep element you talked about, I’m glad that data is lastly being understood that mind flushes throughout that deep sleep section of sleep, but it surely looks like many individuals battle with moving into deep sleep or getting sufficient deep sleep. And I do know BrainTap might help with that as properly. I additionally know there’s numerous science and analysis you guys have completed on the particular results of the BrainTap on TBIs and on age-related decline as properly. Are you able to clarify what the BrainTap is doing and what you’re seeing in these research?
Dr. Porter: The very first thing I’m going to speak about is the rationale that TBRx, which is Tom Brady’s complete physique program, was once known as TB12, his exercise program. He’s now our sport. He’s now our man that goes to the sports activities and teaches the athletes learn how to do. Peter Cummings, who’s their medical director, and Alex Guerrero, who’s the PT. What we did was we confirmed him a research we did in Gaylord, Michigan. We had a chiropractor who’s the physician for the varsity. And for the yr, for, the research that we revealed was for the entire yr, we took any scholar on the faculty that had a concussion. All of them acquired care. All of them acquired medical care. So no one missed out as a result of that’s the issue with doing these sorts of research is you possibly can’t have a placebo as a result of all people wants one thing. So what we did was we had, all people acquired medical care, like the usual medical care that we do, however 50% of them did BrainTap simply throughout that coaching session. In order that meant solely two to a few instances every week throughout their restoration interval. On the finish of their restoration interval, one yr once they went again to play, whether or not or not it’s a cheerleader, a soccer participant, tennis participant, it didn’t matter, if that they had a concussion, they had been put into the protocol.
One yr later, Dr. Arkfeld went again and did neurological testing with them. The group that used BrainTap was 30 to 70% neurologically higher than the group that didn’t. In order that meant if we are able to get them utilizing their mind by way of mind health early, they get higher outcomes down the highway. And that is what was placing. And we’ve had folks that had 10-year concussions or no matter.
And so we’re doing extra research proper now. We’ve got a giant research happening at Seminole State School for Alzheimer’s as a result of we needed to point out, now, Alzheimer’s is a bit of totally different than dementia as a result of consider it like, you recognize, we have to, the earlier you possibly can work on the mind, the higher, you recognize? So in the event you’re sitting there proper now considering, gosh, I’m fearful that is going to occur to me, then begin doing one thing about it. Begin doing one thing constructive about it. It’s not going to return in a capsule. There’s no capsule that they’re going to create as a result of each capsule in some unspecified time in the future, the physique will reject it. That’s what occurred to opioids, proper? Folks, after we beat out opioids in a research in Brazil, they gave, all people began out with the identical quantity of opioids, however the group that used BrainTap didn’t want a rise in any opioids throughout their restoration, the place the group that didn’t repeatedly needed to have extra, extra, extra. And when it was time to discontinue the opioids, the group that used BrainTap may simply discontinue them. To allow them to use them the way in which they had been naturally prescribed.
The issue is that they’re straightforward to get on and exhausting to get off as a result of the mind, the principle motive for that is the mind loves to dump its work. You understand, the mind is 25% of all of the vitality of the physique. So every part, consider 25%, consider it like the federal government. You understand, it’s going to get 25% of every part earlier than anyone else will get something. So all of the vitality of the physique, so it solely weighs 5 kilos, proper? However it will get 25% of every part. So if it may cease utilizing the vitality of the physique after which switch that vitality to another a part of the physique, it’s gonna try this. In order that’s why I’m completely towards espresso very first thing within the morning as a result of it trains the mind to dump its accountability of making norepinephrine, dopamine, and cortisol to wake you up. After which the mind will get dysregulated proper from the start. That’s why we now have what we name digital espresso.
Within the morning, after we did these research, we educated the mind to get up. It’s a brainwave known as SMR, sensory motor rhythm. That’s why when any individual has a concussion or dementia or Alzheimer’s, they get dizzy or they will’t stroll, they don’t have stability. And we additionally use a board, Dan Metcalfe, who’s any individual you need to most likely interview as properly. We use his board, it’s known as the 60 Up. For stability, it’s unimaginable. He’s getting individuals out of wheelchairs. And we use that. We’ve got applications with BrainTap so you possibly can prepare your mind to prepare to do that train. And it’s very straightforward to make use of. However we have to get the physique transferring and respiration and considering and get that brainwave again going.
After which, after all, we have to get them off of the sugars and the detrimental meals which can be inflicting their physique to downregulate. However throughout these research I’m speaking about, we didn’t management their meals in any respect. We all know we’d get higher outcomes. Now, in his e-book, the Saving Your Mind e-book, which is offered on Amazon, you’ll learn he places in there the weight loss program that he prescribes. He additionally has a bodily train routine. So once I’m speaking in regards to the outcomes we acquired with BrainTap, that was simply with BrainTap. Once you add in these different options, you possibly can enhance the mind in lower than six weeks. We took, like I mentioned, each individual in our research, which is now in a much bigger research at Seminole State School, we’re going to publish as soon as we get to 100 individuals. However we’re getting the identical statistics, 39% extra neuroplasticity in six weeks. Which means the mind’s capability to work went up 39% in six weeks. And that’s what’s taking place. It’s like as we age, sadly, the mitochondria, the vitality of the system dowregulates as a result of we’re not doing the suitable issues. Now, that’s not our pure and regular. That’s simply what’s taking place with our way of life. As a result of we’re designed to dwell till we die. We’re not designed to slowly die after which give our cash to the hospital on the finish of loss of life. You understand, I might reasonably, you recognize, like they are saying within the rock and roll data, I’d reasonably burn out than fade away. You understand, principally individuals are fading away.
Katie: That’s such an excellent level. And to get on a bit of particular into the protocol facet, I do know I feel there’s a BrainTap sitting behind you for anybody watching on video. What modalities is it utilizing and what’s the impression it’s having on the mind and the way a lot time does it absorb a given day to see these outcomes?
Dr. Porter: Properly, we consider that two of the instances you wish to use the BrainTap, you don’t must spend any further time. Simply set your alarm for 10 minutes earlier. As a result of in the event you set an alarm, too, I don’t advocate the blaring alarm. I like to recommend some piece of music that’s stunning that wakes you up and tells you at this time’s a gorgeous day to perform one thing. Since you don’t wish to put your nervous system on pink alert.
However in the event you get up 10 minutes early, do considered one of our 10-minute SMR classes. That is digital espresso. It’s going to get up the mind. That is key for mind perform. The morning classes are most likely a very powerful. As a result of in the event you begin your time off proper, there’s a saying, win the morning, win the day. After which in the midst of the day, or in the event you can’t try this since you’re working, do it as quickly as you get house from work. Two o’clock within the afternoon, our temperature drops 2 levels. That is regular for everyone all over the world. That is when our physique resets. Now, at evening, it will increase temperature 2 levels at 2 o’clock. That’s why in the event you’re a kind of folks that wakes up in the midst of the evening throwing off the covers since you’re scorching, it’s as a result of your mind is dysregulated. We have to get that mind regulated. However within the afternoon, we have to reboot the mind as a result of we’re, our physique is designed to dwell within the Serengeti, regardless that in genetically, they will’t determine why these our bodies aren’t evolving as a result of they’re saying we evolve, however they’re nonetheless the identical our bodies that had been round 200,000 years in the past. They’re not, they’re no totally different. So we’re designed to take a nap in the midst of the day, however we don’t try this. We do, we go get espresso, tea, chocolate, no matter, preserve going. But when we are able to do a 20-minute session in the midst of the day and prepare our mind to get into theta.
Now, in the event you’re having dementia, then we advocate gamma throughout the center of the day. And we now have an entire collection known as Mind Health that we now have individuals do. And it has to do with cognition and it has phrases in it. Now, phrases are essential as a result of phrases can change as much as 2,300 gene expressions. So we wish to upregulate your gene expression. Now, at evening, we’re going to have you ever take heed to the delta classes, which goes to place you into deep delta. It’s going to assist to detoxify that mind, particularly in the event you’ve been compromised throughout the day as a result of possibly you’re doing issues and also you overdid it. Some individuals, we are saying this with kids, however we don’t understand it’s true for adults, too. They go, they’re too drained to sleep. Most adults are too drained to sleep. So how we do that is by way of gentle, flashing gentle. Our eyes have essentially the most mitochondria per sq. centimeter than another a part of the physique. Our eyes are actually designed, they usually know this now, that we transmit and we obtain gentle by way of our eyes. You’ve most likely had the expertise the place you’re sitting studying a e-book or watching TV, and also you felt like any individual’s watching you flip round and possibly it was your husband or considered one of your kids taking a look at you. You had been feeling their phototactic alternate. As a result of each cell is broadcasting eight, 10 nanometer gentle. And it’s, it’s not simply, I got here into individuals began realizing once they mentioned shedding, however we all the time shed. Once you’re round any individual, you’re all the time transmitting and receiving their data within the type of vitality. That’s why we now have what we name vitality drainers and vitality gainers. You understand, there are individuals that you simply’re round that appear to drag your vitality down, and there are individuals that appear to drag your vitality up. In fact, we wish to be round gainers, not drainers.
So additionally to get gentle into the mind, which is phototactic vitality, what a mitochondria does within the cell, that is only a simplified model. So if we now have some scientists on the road, it’s not the complete model as a result of I’m not going to speak in regards to the Krebs cycle and all that. However what occurs is gentle goes into the physique. It’s absorbed by the hemoglobin. So within the ears, all of the blood in your physique goes by way of your ears each 45 seconds. The remainder of your physique, it does it in 15 seconds. In order that’s how briskly blood pumps by way of your physique. However within the ears, it slows down sufficient that we are able to produce a light-weight impact. So we’re going to place blue and pink gentle, and we’re going to additionally encode that gentle with Nogier frequencies. Dr. Nogier, who was an iridologist, truly mentioned there’s seven frequencies of the physique. After they’re out of tune, the physique will get sick. So what we do is each two minutes, that adjustments within the ear lights. So we’re bathing the physique with gentle. It’s going by way of the meridians instantly into the mind first as a result of the ear blood truly heats and cools the mind. So if we wish to get gentle into the mind, we do it by way of the eyes, by way of the ears.
Now the mind has vitality due to the mitochondria. Let’s say that the mitochondria is beginning to exit as a result of that cell is about to die known as apoptosis. The cell with the vitality goes to return alongside. It’s going to be absorbed there. That cell goes to return again to life as a result of the mitochondria goes to soak up that phototactic vitality. The Krebs cycle goes to begin up once more. Nitric oxide goes to be launched. Vasodilation, blood move. Circulation. For this reason it helps the mind perform. The extra blood move and circulation, nitric oxide, it’s a naturally occurring phenomenon. Now you possibly can take nitric oxide too to assist with mind perform, which I do. And Nathan Bryan, who’s an excellent pal of mine, has an excellent product. However we do this stuff. However gentle does it naturally.
And so after we’re doing this, what occurs is the mind begins to control. Now the mind has vitality to coach. Similar to going to the health club, we want vitality to go to the health club to construct muscle tissues. We’d like gentle within the mind to coach the mind. That is known as brainwave entrainment. Now, we additionally then mirror the identical factor we’re doing with gentle. These are earth frequencies. So in the event you and I had been in your spaceship and we’re flying towards earth and we had been to measure the earth’s frequencies, it could be between 0.5 and 100. So these are the frequencies of the earth. These are the frequencies our physique is used to experiencing. So we’re not doing something unnatural. We’re simply principally, that’s why they name it hacking the mind or biohacking. We just like the time period well being optimization a bit of higher as a result of most individuals don’t just like the phrase hacking. However what we’re doing is we’re imitating nature. After which the physique will get into sync. When it’s in sync, it begins to launch its personal neurochemicals. You begin to get excessive by yourself provide. And once you’re in, every considered one of these brainwave states produces neurotransmitter exercise.
Now, neurotransmitters aren’t made within the mind. They’re instructed from the mind to the intestine. Now, there are three brains, simply so everybody is aware of. So once you’re engaged on dementia and Alzheimer’s and these form of issues, TBIs, it’s not a mind within the head factor. It’s a coronary heart mind. You may have 40,000 neutrino cells. So we put gentle pads on the center. We’ve got a light-weight pad we placed on the intestine. On the identical time, we’re doing BrainTap. So now we’re feeding the physique what it wants most, gentle vitality, and the intestine is regulating. There’s extra neuron connections within the intestine than there are within the mind between our ears. So when you concentrate on, and that’s the place all of the neurotransmitters are made. Within the intestine.
So throughout TBI restoration, we advocate that they get off all sugars. They go extra towards a keto form of weight loss program. I’m not saying go at it eternally however go extra towards a keto weight loss program. Perhaps even do some intermittent fasting in the event you don’t have blood sugar issues as a result of that autophagy goes to assist to filter the unhealthy cells within the mind.
