WHY Your Brain Health/Fitness Matters

HOW You CAN Keep Your Brain

Happy, Healthy and Vibrant into Old Age

Oxygen

Balanced Blood Sugar

Brain Activation/Stimulation

 

Most people take their brains for granted. Do you? I certainly did…. until I became a student of Functional Neurology.

Brain Facts

Your brain controls EVERYTHING Without a brain you have no life experience Be good to your brain Start today.

1. Astounding Brain Cell Numbers

It is estimated that there are 150 billion nerve cells/neurons in your brain, in my brain – more neurons than there are stars in the Milky Way. Each brain cell/neuron makes up to 40,000 connections with other nerve cells/neurons. We call these connections synapses. Neurons are constantly communicating via theses synapses with each other.

2. Impressive Brain Stats

		Your brain weighs approximately 2% of your body’s weight.
		Your brain consumes 25% to 30% of the oxygen you breathe
		Your brain uses 25% to 30% of the calories you take in.

Your brain never ever sleeps. Your brain takes no naps.

At night, your brain slows down, somewhat.

3. Learning/Practicing Strengthens Your Brain

Brain learning happens through repetition. Connections/synapses between neurons that are used over and over again become stronger and more permanent. New brain cells/neurons are created. New brain pathways are laid down.

What Your Brain Needs

1. All Cells Require Energy (ATP) made from Glucose and Oxygen

All cells of your body, such as the cells of your muscles cells, and also your brain cells/neurons, require energy so they can do their job.   This cell energy is called ATP, short for Adenosine-5'-Tri-Phosphate. Each cell contains a number of tiny power plants, called mitochondria. These power plants make ATP from oxygen and glucose.

All cells require “two things” to function optimally:

		1. Adequate Oxygen
		2. Balanced Blood Sugar/Glucose (emphasis is on the word ”balanced”)

2. Your Brain Cells/Neurons are Different

Your neurons require a 3rd Thing

Your brain cells/neurons are different from the other cells of your body.

Yes, they do require Adequate Oxygen and Balanced Blood Sugar/Glucose to make cell energy ATP.

In addition, they require a “3rd Thing” which is absolutely essential to their survival.

We call the 3rd Thing "Brain Input/Activation/Stimulation". 

What is this Brain Input/Activation/Stimulation?

Well, this brain input comes from all the senses: Sight Hearing Taste Touch Smell

Example:

You touch something or somebody with your hand.
There are approximately 17,000 tiny touch receptors in each of your hands.
These tiny receptors send electrical impulses back to a very specific part of your brain.
This part of your brain lights up, is activated, is stimulated, becomes alive.
Your brain interprets these electrical impulses as touch.

Another example:

Whenever light falls on the retina in the back of your eyes, the retinal cells send electrical impulses via your optic nerve to a specific area in the back of your brain, the visual cortex.
The visual cortex becomes activated, stimulated, alive.
Your visual cortex interprets these electrical impulses as vision.
The stimulation/input makes your brain vibrant and energized.

Movement - The Biggest Brain Stimulation

Dance Walking Exercise Physical Work Physical Movement

The biggest portion of this brain input, 80% or more, comes from physical movement in the Earth’s gravitational field.

In your muscles there are countless tiny receptors, called muscle spindles.
These muscle spindles send constantly information to your brain about the stretch of your muscles fibers, consequently about the relative position of your limbs in space.

• It is estimated that there are between 25,000 and 30,000 muscle spindles throughout your body.
• Whenever you move, these muscle spindles send information back to your brain.
• Specific portions of your brain are activated, stimulated, become alive.
• Your brain becomes stronger and more vibrant when you move physically in space.

A child’s brain cannot grow and develop properly without this brain input/activation/stimulation. A grown-up brain requires this brain input/activation/stimulation to stay vibrant and healthy into old age.

Daily physical movement, physical work, walking, dancing, regular exercise provide the simplest and most effective way to stimulate your brain, to keep it happy and healthy now, and especially as you get older.

The Three Pillars of Brain Health – Your Brain Health Matters

Your brain controls EVERYTHING

Your brain requires three things to function optimally:

		Without enough oxygen, your brain can't work properly.
		Without sufficient stimulation, your brain can't work properly.
		With hypoglycemia or diabetes, your brain can't work properly.

Your Road Map to Optimal Brain Health/Fitness

So, here is your roadmap to optimal brain health, no matter what your age is:

		Make sure that your brain gets Sufficient Oxygen, especially as you get older
		Do everything in your power to create Balanced Blood Sugar - watch WHAT you eat, and HOW you digest what you eat
		Move physically, dance, exercise daily, go for walks - to the degree you are able to
		BEST - Excercise with your Personal Portable Oxygen Bar

A client letter:

My name is Irene, I am 70 years old. I have suffered from insomnia for more than 10 years. I was always tired. I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and had heart surgery.

I have had terrible bronchitis, coughing and shortness of breath for the last 2 years that would not let up. Often I would cough up phlegm.

I also have had constant body pain, fibromyalgia for maybe 25 years. I hurt all over, sometimes more, sometimes less.

Often I had diarrhea. And then I would have periods of constipation.
I was always tired and fatigued, had bad mood swings and bouts of depression.

I found myself binge eating with terrible food cravings, especially for carbohydrates foods.

I had gone to see 3 different chiropractors in my area, 1 medical doctor, 1 homeopath and 1 naturopathic doctor. Nobody seemed to be able to get to the root of my problems.

Dr. Z had helped me many years ago. In my despair I made an appointment to see him even though it takes us several hours by car to get to his office.

2 weeks ago, Dr. Z examined me. He discovered that I had very little muscle strength and a rather low oxygen saturation. He changed my diet from a high carbohydrate diet to a high protein diet. He also recommended specific anti candida supplements and digestive support and Co Q 10.

Dr. Z further recommended that I purchase the Personal Portable Oxygen Bar indicating that it could prove useful with my breathing problems and my low oxygen levels. I have been using his machine 3 times a day without fail.

16 days later I went to see Dr. Z for a follow-up examination. What a difference - my breathing has improved by perhaps 90%, most of my fibromyalgia/body pain is gone, I can sleep much better at night and I feel much stronger. My food cravings are pretty much gone.

I don't dwell anymore on being sick. Often I actually feel inclined to want to do something rather than sit around all day and feel miserable. I am so happy. I feel like living again.
