It's a Wednesday 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: in Melbourne, but it's not a Wednesday in the States 4 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,639 Speaker 1: or in Las Vegas. It's a Tuesday? Is it? 5 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 2: Am? 6 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,159 Speaker 1: I care? It's still Tuesday? Isn't it Tuesday night? 7 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 2: We just can't get away from Tuesday. 8 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to say the the you know, the obvious, 9 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: but you're you're always going to be behind us. So 10 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: that's okay, that's okay. Let me tell you Wednesday, Wednesday, 11 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: the nineteenth of November. It's pretty good. It's pretty good 12 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 1: over here anyway, so look forward to that. Yeah, how 13 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: are you? How have you been? 14 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: Fantastic? Thank you yourself? How are things there? 15 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: Oh? Good? A few little challenges on planet Craig with 16 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: some very old parents, but you know that everybody goes 17 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: through that, so I'm trying to navigate that. That's a 18 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: first for me. And are your parents still around either 19 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: or both or neither. 20 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 2: My mother and stepfather are alive and well and they 21 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 2: come in for some of our regenerative anti aging attention 22 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 2: and yeah, young, active and independent. 23 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: So what's your mum? Benching these days. 24 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 2: She's benching her body weight. 25 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, that's great. Yeah, yeah, yeah, what she 26 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: deadlifting one point five body weight for reps issue? 27 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, I've heard. 28 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: I've heard she's an animal. I've heard she's an animal. 29 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: Before we jump in, like today, I wanted to ask 30 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: you a few things because I was kind of praising 31 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: you before we started recording, and I mean it, it's 32 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: like what I what I love about you and why 33 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: I love having you back is because you know, you 34 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: have a high level of expertise and knowledge and understanding 35 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: and skill in your space that virtually none of my listeners. 36 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: I would think none of my listeners do. They might 37 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: know more than I do. But like, but your capacity 38 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: to be able to share complicated ideas and messages in 39 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: a kind of a user friendly way is It's not unique, 40 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: but it's certainly not common. How much are you aware 41 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: of that? Like? Is communication connection building rapport? Because you're 42 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: constantly talking to people who don't have your knowledge or 43 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: your understanding or your medical insight and you can't just 44 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: talk psychobabble to them. How much are you aware of 45 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: communication and helping people? Have I guess a capacity to 46 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: embrace what's actually going on without being overwhelmed. 47 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 2: Well, thank you for that. By the way, I'm acutely 48 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: aware of. My job is to educate, So if you're 49 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 2: a patient sitting in front of me, I have to 50 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: explain it to you in a way that connects with you. 51 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: And I might be different for different people, and I 52 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 2: have to be aware of the cultural difference, language difference, 53 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 2: the contextual differences, because I need someone to feel like 54 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: they got it before they leave. And the important doctrine 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: of informed consent means a patient needs to be able 56 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: to agree to a treatment knowing all the options. And 57 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: they can't know all the options they don't understand some 58 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: explanation behind them, and that's a time consuming process, but 59 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 2: as rewarding for the patient and for me. The system 60 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: doesn't allow for that, which is why you know, we 61 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: don't work inside the institutionalized, watered down, insurance driven system here. 62 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that gives you, I guess, the freedom and 63 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: the flexibility to be able to do the things that 64 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: you do the way that you want to do them 65 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: without you know, those kind of barriers and restrictions. 66 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: I did I one further, Yeah, to allow one further. 67 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: It allows me to follow the Hippocratic oath best because 68 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 2: health insurance forces institutions and people that work for them 69 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 2: to to skirt that oath. 70 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so, And I mean it is the hippocritic. 71 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: First do no harm? Is there a bit more? 72 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: First do no harm is a was a concept from 73 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 2: an anonymous name Galen, probably in around sixteen hundreds. Some 74 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: people have added it to a modern version of the 75 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 2: Hippocratic oath, but it was not from Hippocrates. 76 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: Right, can you can you give us a snapshot of 77 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: the Hippocratic oath and I'm more accurate than me. 78 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Hippocratic oath is about you know, service first to 79 00:04:54,839 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: your patient, uh, and to help relieve suffering and help 80 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 2: to you know, cure those that try to cure those 81 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: that are ailing. There were some other more political nature 82 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 2: to it that's kind of dropped off the modern version. 83 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 2: But yeah, it's an interesting read. It's not very long. 84 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think like I'm always encouraging people 85 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: to this sounds this sounds shonky at the start, but 86 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: basically to do their own research. I don't mean watching 87 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: YouTube videos or jumping on the internet, but by that 88 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: I mean and E calls one kind of figuring out 89 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: at the very least, being aware of how your body 90 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: responds to different things. So, Craig, when you have seven 91 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: hours sleep, how does your brain work versus eight hours sleep? 92 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: Or versus five hours? Craig, when you eat dinner at 93 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: nine o'clock at night versus six thirty, do you notice anything? 94 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: Is there any difference in terms of sleep or disruption 95 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: or energy? Or you know, when you drink a leader 96 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: of water versus three leaders of water, you know, when 97 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: you have two coffees versus four, when you like, all 98 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: of this kind of just being aware of the stuff 99 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: that we do, either consciously or unconsciously to our body, 100 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: and then you know, without you know, pretending we're medical professionals, 101 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: but at the very least navigating life with this awareness of, oh, 102 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: when I do this to my body, this seems to 103 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: be the outcome. You know, that's almost just building a 104 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: different kind of self awareness, physiological self awareness, you know, 105 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: operational self awareness. I feel like that's something that's not 106 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: really spoken about a lot or encouraged a lot. We 107 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: kind of in Australia anyway, it's very much oh you 108 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: know this happened. Now I'll go and see a doctor 109 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: and then they will give me a pillow. They will 110 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: tell me what to do, rather than saying what am 111 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: I doing to contribute to this thing? Like what do 112 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: I know? Well, I drink alcohol seven days a week, 113 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: so that you know that could have something to do 114 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: with this issue that I'm having. Or I spend twenty 115 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: two hours day sitting on my ass lying in a 116 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: bid that could be a contributing FACTA no, I. 117 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 2: Concur with you. I think that my best patients are 118 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: those that are really self aware, because they can into 119 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: it their problems and their reactions to different things, and 120 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: they can give me more useful information for me to 121 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: help figure out a pattern of what's wrong. Sometimes I've 122 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,119 Speaker 2: noticed this too. Sometimes people will say, oh, I can't 123 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 2: I can't take much of that supplement or do that 124 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 2: it sets off this and you know they've seen a 125 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: doctor and the doctor's like, well, that's not possible. That's 126 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 2: not a thing. You know, Well, you know, when you're 127 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 2: taking data from a patient, it is a thing. It 128 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 2: is an an equals one and to try to extrapolate 129 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: that to a study of a thousand people is not useful. 130 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: And that's why a lot of the medical research out 131 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 2: there is horrible. It's horrible because it's it's it's for 132 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 2: epidemiologic or population type issues. They often use the wrong 133 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 2: kind of statistics when they look at it, you know, 134 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 2: they take it, they take a situation that is nonlinear 135 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 2: and they try to force it into a linear setting. 136 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 2: And the peer reviewers in the journals don't understand this. 137 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: The peers aren't very bright. And there's so much of that. 138 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 2: So so, and now in the US we're reversing some dogma, 139 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 2: right this this Women's Health Initiative. Did you guys hear 140 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 2: about that over there? 141 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: I didn't. I'm sure my listeners did. 142 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: But you go on, for years, based on a single 143 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 2: study called the Women's Health Initiative, doctors were telling women 144 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 2: that hormone replacement would harm them, they would cause them cancer. 145 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: It turns out the statistics were completely wrong on that 146 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: and the opposite may be true. So they finally just 147 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 2: officially denounced it. So something that was you know, peer 148 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 2: review dogma for all this time. They looked back and said, oh, yeah, 149 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: I guess we did mess that up pretty bad. And 150 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 2: you know, we've got decades of women who have suffered 151 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 2: significantly because they weren't offered, you know, what they should 152 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 2: be having. And that's just the beginning of hopefully looking 153 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: back at things in the past that were just wrong 154 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 2: and admitting they were wrong and moving forward into something new. 155 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been an interesting journey doing my own research, 156 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: which is a very different space to you but because 157 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 1: I ran my own studies and I also did what 158 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: you know is a systematic literature review, where I started 159 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 1: with thirty one hundred and fifty papers which totaled over 160 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: two thousand different studies, and to try to distill it 161 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: into some kind of meaningful outcomes and messages and blah 162 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: blah blah ah that. 163 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 2: But one of the. 164 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: Really interesting things I didn't know is that in psychology anyway, 165 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what the exact number is, but the 166 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: majority of psychological research is done on students because because 167 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: it's like, well, I'm a PhD student and so I 168 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: can access students easily, right. But then, you know, so 169 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 1: what you've got is you've got all of this research 170 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: which gets extrapolated to everyone from zero to one hundred 171 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: years old. But the vast majority of people who are 172 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: being researched on in many cases is like a four 173 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: year window of eighteen to twenty two year olds who 174 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: are being compensated or rewarded for doing this research or 175 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: being involved, like they're getting academic credits. Fortunately, most of 176 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: my actual research that I did was with the general public. 177 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: But then when you look into it, you go, well, 178 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: how much does this even mean? These conclusions that are 179 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: drawn from this research when the vast majority of the 180 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: people involved in the research were eight en to twenty 181 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: two years old, and they were academics in this certain context, 182 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: in this certain environment, being incentivized to participate this in 183 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: the first place. They didn't want to do it. They 184 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: were just there because they got fucking academic credit, And 185 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: you're like, well, what's the quality of this? Then it's 186 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: like people don't think about the actual methodology or process. 187 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: They just go, oh, this is what the research tells us. Well, yeah, 188 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: but if the protocol or the methodology is dogshit, then 189 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: the outcomes the findings are also dogshit. 190 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: I agree with that, And that's funny because you made 191 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 2: me remember something I probably haven't thought of for decades. 192 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: As I had to do that. We had to do 193 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 2: the research too. To pass psychology class in college. We 194 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,359 Speaker 2: had to sign up for a few studies and participate. 195 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: So you're right, that's a very select demographic, right, young, 196 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:17,599 Speaker 2: probably healthy, mind's not fully developed, ideas not fully developed, 197 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: you know. So that's that's a great concept. They need 198 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 2: to do studies in different, more more diverse, you know, 199 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 2: demographics one percent. 200 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: Well, what I mean, we're taking those findings and then 201 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: extrapolating to the entire population, different cultures, different religions, different 202 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: different demographics, and then we're going, oh, because this group 203 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: of you know, teenagers and young adults, this is the 204 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: data we got from then, and then try to apply 205 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: that to my eighty five year old moment in some capacity. 206 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't really doesn't really make sense. What is speaking 207 00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: of all of this? What is something that. 208 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: You you. 209 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: That you believed or that you embraced that you've changed 210 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: your mind on. I might have asked you this once before, 211 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: But is there something that you went I got that wrong, 212 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: or there's way more to this this story than I 213 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: was led to believe. 214 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 2: Well, there are many things, and I would not be 215 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 2: a decent physician if I did not, you know, have 216 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 2: the ability to look at those things and open minded 217 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: to consider new data to change my mind. So you know, 218 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 2: the Women's Health Initiative. You know how we approach that 219 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: is one item where we were scared about giving estrogen 220 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 2: to breast cancer. You know, our patients at risk for 221 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 2: breast cancer were now thinking, well, whoops, the estrogen may 222 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 2: actually be keeping those cells more normally functioning and not cancerous. 223 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: So that's why how I approach the use of corticosteroids 224 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: quarter zone type injections for joints and spine. We used 225 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 2: to use them ubiquitously. You got an inflamed joinner, You've 226 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 2: seen a courtizone shot. Now we're looking back and saying 227 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 2: we've done those repeated shots actually are have accelerated the 228 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: degeneration of the joint, and we've got other options now. 229 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 2: So this is this. I'm sure my list goes on, 230 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 2: but those are probably two common ones. 231 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: Well, there's all of us in it. It's like I think, well, 232 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: I don't think. I'm pretty sure I've gotten as many 233 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: things wrong over the years as i've gotten right. And 234 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: it's just like I think, part of like, if you 235 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: want to be authentic and real, and you know, you 236 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: really want to walk your talk, you have to And 237 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: I just mean in general, me included me at the 238 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: front of the queue. You've got to own up to 239 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: the things that you got wrong, and like nobody was 240 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: intending to do anything wrong, or at least ideas that 241 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: I so much of the stuff that I used to 242 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: think to be absolute gospel. I'm like, oh, well, that's 243 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: even The idea is that, you know, if this is 244 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: the problem, this is the solution, and we know that 245 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: that's effective for this and that, and then you go, 246 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: that's effective for a lot of people, but not for 247 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: all people. I was talking about this the other day 248 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: day with somebody. We're talking about this idea of relaxing 249 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: and calming and switching on the parasympathetic nervous system and 250 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: getting out of that anxiety and that stress and that 251 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: hypervigilance and that overthinking, fucking chaos, and how for some people, 252 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: you know, sitting in a quiet room with their legs 253 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: crossed and a bit of en you're playing or whoever, 254 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: and doing some kind of meditative is like, that's beautiful 255 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: for them, and it does all the things that their 256 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: body needs. But I'd rather punch myself in the face 257 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: than do that. Like me sitting in a room like 258 00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: that doing that, my response is not calm I don't 259 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: enjoy it, which is not say it's bad. It's not 260 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: bad at all. It's just not for me versus me 261 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: riding a motorbike, which I've done since I was five 262 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: and I still do pretty much every day of my life. 263 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: When I'm on a motorbike ime in my happy place, 264 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: I actually feel joy, I actually feel surprisingly, I feel calm. 265 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if I should, but I do. But 266 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: for other people that would be an episode or an 267 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: exercise in absolute terror. 268 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 2: You know. 269 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: But it's not so much about the thing that we 270 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: do as it is our relationship to or response to 271 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: the thing that we do. It's like, well, how does 272 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: that thing, whatever the thing is, how does that affect 273 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: your physiology and your psychology and your emotional system? You know, 274 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: And that's back to that end equals one. 275 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: It is back to that, and there's so much we 276 00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: don't know and we're learning. I encountered some new technology 277 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 2: this past weekend and we were at a health and 278 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 2: wellness event in Tampa, Florida. Yeah, very nice, and met 279 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 2: some people with a company that they call it Informational 280 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 2: Nutraceuticals or Infoceuticals. So what they do is they they 281 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: take advantage of and I haven't done the deep dive, 282 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 2: but I'm very interested of the quantum state of molecules 283 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: that communicate throughout our body and can retain that quantum state. 284 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 2: And they've looked at the quantum state of people who 285 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 2: are relaxed and the quantum state of people who are 286 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 2: who need this or need that, and they've they've been 287 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 2: able to use a quantum generator and take like a 288 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 2: salt water and imprint, imprint the solution, the quantum information 289 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 2: into the you know, the protons of the wall water. 290 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: Wow, it's like right. 291 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: And and then that that solution you put under your 292 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 2: tongue and your your body then communicates with your body's 293 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 2: quantum state of the water and your and you can 294 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 2: achieve that quantum state. This is called quantum medicine. It's 295 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 2: very new to me, but being a nerd, I like 296 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 2: all the science stuff. So this is this is very good. 297 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: And so in essence, if you are, you know, anxious, 298 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 2: you could take one one of these solutions that calms you. 299 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 2: And so they had one that's called dream that supports sleep. 300 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: So I took it last night. It's my second night now. 301 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 2: It just knocked me out really yeah, I don't know 302 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: if it's a placebo effect or what I'm gonna I'm 303 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 2: gonna look into this with more, you know, fervor, but 304 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 2: it's very interesting. And they have a set of these, 305 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 2: you know, they have some for infection and this and 306 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: and and that, and it puts us on a whole 307 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 2: new level when we can not treat with medications or surgery, 308 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 2: but we have we have ways of informing the cells 309 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 2: and our body through quantum entanglement. 310 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, do you know. Yeah, it's so bloody, it's 311 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: it's so fascinating. You said they're place ebos. Right, I'm 312 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: just going to jump around a little bit. I did 313 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: an episode last week on place Ebos and No Cibos, 314 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: and I thought, rather than me just bang on about 315 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: the potential power of the mind over our physiology and 316 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 1: the capacity that we may or may not have to 317 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: heal ourselves or resolve issue whatever, right, I thought, I'm 318 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: going to do some research and find documented cases of 319 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: you know, some of these kind of events and stories. 320 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: And there's so many of them, and it's like there's one, 321 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: there was one which I won't bore the audience, but 322 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,199 Speaker 1: I forget the I've got it written somewhere, but the 323 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: doctor's name escapes me. But he was a doctor slash 324 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: surgeon working in the NBA with NBA players, and like 325 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: the players would often at the end of the season 326 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: go in for a knee kind of you know, scrape 327 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: scope whatever, and they'd like to and they would do 328 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 1: these three incisions. Then they would do this operation where 329 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: they would take out all the crap a bit of 330 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: like wear and tear or anyway. He thought that the 331 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: operation basically didn't do anything, but the players thought it did, 332 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: like they believed in the operation, and they believed that anyway, 333 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: So he ran this experiment. I don't know how he 334 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: got ethical approval for this. It was in the It 335 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: was in I think two thousand and three or two 336 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: this and he had three groups, one who had the 337 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: actual operation, one who had a partial operation whatever that means, 338 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: and one who had nothing. But they did go in. 339 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: They all went into the operating theater. They're all put 340 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: under anesthetic, and they all had three incisions made in 341 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 1: their knee the same right as though they so And 342 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: when they came out the the medical staff didn't know 343 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: who had had the operation, so everyone was treated the same. 344 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: They're all rehad the same and you know what I'm 345 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: going to say, like the outcomes were better for the 346 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: people who didn't have anything done in the short term 347 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: and the short term and the long term. And one 348 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: of the guys who had a placebo operation went back 349 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: and played professional basketball having had nothing done, but the 350 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: issue had been resolved so it couldn't play. Then he 351 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: had the operation, nudge nudge, wink wink, back playing all good, 352 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:46,959 Speaker 1: no pain issue resolved. Like that stuff fascinates me. And 353 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of bullshit around that, and 354 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: you've got to be careful about that and don't believe everything. 355 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: I get all of that, But could you imagine, I mean, 356 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: there's so many companies and businesses that would not want 357 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: that to be Imagine if we could understand, imagine if 358 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: we could open that door on really starting to understand 359 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: how we could heal ourselves if we if we have 360 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 1: that ability but we just don't know how to access 361 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: it or operate it. There's so many companies that don't 362 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: want that to happen. 363 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: Agreed, Oh absolutely, I mean we see this all the 364 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 2: time and it drives my practice right because I'm a 365 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 2: surgeon trying not to do surgery and explain to people 366 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 2: they come here for a second opinion. Oh, but they 367 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 2: told me that surgery is the only way, and explain, 368 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 2: no surgiers the next thing on that doctor's menu, there 369 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 2: are other options. So it's it's it has to do 370 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 2: with appetites. So people don't have an appetite for, you know, 371 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 2: things that aren't in the mainstream. 372 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: Well, if you go to you know whoever it is. 373 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: You go to a dietitian, it's going to be a 374 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: dietary problem. You go to a natural path, they're going 375 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: to turn to Nat Dropery. You go to a surgeon. 376 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: Of course you're going to need surgery. You've got do 377 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's like there ain't too 378 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: many people talking themselves out of business when you do. 379 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: You have an awareness when you're talking to people like, okay, 380 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,959 Speaker 1: let me hear the pause button, then I'll ask you. 381 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: So I had an awareness when I was talking to 382 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,719 Speaker 1: clients over the years. Remember I owned multiple personal training 383 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 1: centers and I did tens of tens and tens of 384 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: thousands of hours of PT on the gym floor, and 385 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: often you would have people who would come in who 386 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: would be never been in a gym, not in good shape, 387 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: often terrible shape, insecure, very self conscious, very fearful, very anxious, 388 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: and all of that. And for whatever reason, I had 389 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: an ability to be able to make them feel really 390 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,239 Speaker 1: safe and really seen and really okay very quickly. And 391 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: I would often just talk to them about, you know, 392 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: the fact that I'd trained many people like them, and 393 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: many people in worse condition than them, and many people. 394 00:23:58,119 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: You know, I'd say to some people, you look like 395 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: in a limb compared to some of the people I've 396 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: worked with, and that'd laugh, and that feel better, right. 397 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: But I realized that, you know, what I could do 398 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 1: or how it could help them with their body was 399 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: secondary in that moment. It was more about how I could, 400 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 1: you know, make them feel okay psychologically and sociologically and 401 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: emotionally in that place. So when you're talking with somebody 402 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: and you're consulting somebody, and I guess some people would 403 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: come to you that'd be very fearful, how much of 404 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: that is you just trying to build connection, report trust 405 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 1: and respect before you even open the medical door. 406 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 2: A lot of it is the right answer, but sometimes 407 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 2: you're not sure, and you're you have to sort of 408 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: test the system, you know, talk to someone and ask 409 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 2: them questions, you know, see where they are anxiety wise, 410 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 2: or what they're really looking for, what the real problem is, 411 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 2: because sometimes it's some people are not you know, very well, 412 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: call it somatically tuned in. They don't they just come 413 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 2: and say, yeah, I just have pain. Well where is it? Well, 414 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 2: I'm it's in my back or where yeah, sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, 415 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 2: you know, it takes a while to sort of help them, 416 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: help you help them, you know, yeah, so but but yeah, 417 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 2: I mean sometimes they just need to know it's okay. 418 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 2: And sometimes they're not seeking treatment, they just want to 419 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 2: be heard. Yeah. Yeah. 420 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,199 Speaker 1: One of the things I wanted to ask you about today. 421 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: I don't even have a specific question, but I want 422 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: you to talk to me about pain. I want to 423 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: talk about a bit about you know, because we talk 424 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: about pain threshold and we talk about you know, how 425 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: people I don't know. It's like if I get massaged, 426 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: for example, I want the hardest possible massage of all time, 427 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: like you could drive a truck on me. I'm like, 428 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: can you get a bigger truck? Like other people you 429 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: just touch them and they scream. Now, I don't know 430 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: if that's just because I don't feel the same. I 431 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: don't think I have an abnormally high pain threshold. I 432 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: don't think on some kind of alpha, by the way, 433 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: But talk to us a little bit about the individual experience, 434 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: personal person of pain and whether or not I don't know, 435 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: is that on some level psychological. 436 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, I mean you and I have touched 437 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 2: on this a little bit in the past. But of 438 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 2: course there's a genetic variations and how we perceive pain. 439 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 2: There's a neurotransmitter or brain perception, cognitive perception, and depends 440 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: on your state of minor mood. The pain can vary 441 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 2: with the psychological aspects of how your neurotransmitters are made up, 442 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 2: and depression sort of aggravates pain and the and it 443 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: depends very much on your neuromuscular status. Yeah. You you know, 444 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 2: most people with the most severe pain, I look more 445 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 2: debilitated observationally, and I don't know if that's a cause 446 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 2: and effect, But you know, muscle is protective. Muscle releases 447 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 2: endorphins and causes the release of endorphins, which are small 448 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 2: internal opiates. Muscle releases the myo kinds or extra kinds, 449 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 2: the peptides that that help the body in so many 450 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 2: and the brain in so many ways. Yes, you know, 451 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 2: so I think that the answer here is there's huge 452 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 2: variation and pain and perception and listen, the brain's powerful. 453 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: Like you can hypnotize someone out of pain. You can. 454 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 2: You know, when you put people in sedation, they don't 455 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:42,719 Speaker 2: feel pain turning off their brain. But the physiologic stimulus 456 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 2: that was there in the first place causing pain is 457 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 2: still there. 458 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: You know. 459 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 2: Let's say I put a knife in your leg and 460 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: it hurts, and then we say you're not gonna feel it, 461 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 2: but still there, Yes, some damage. So the brain has 462 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 2: a lot to do with pain. 463 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: Yes, so interesting do you reckon? We I feel like 464 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: we talk more and more with longevity and health span 465 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: about managing our body, which is good about you know, 466 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: bone density and neuromuscular kind of function and coordination, balance, walking, gate, 467 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 1: staying strong, lifting weights, moving. We don't talk so much 468 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: about how do we keep our brain working optimally because 469 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: that's obviously you know, like how do I actually keep 470 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: my focus and attention and my shortened, medium and long 471 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: term memory, and how do I be able to solve problems? 472 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: And how do I think critically and how do I 473 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: keep this thing, this three pound thing, in the middle 474 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: of this danger alert thing in my head? How do 475 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: I keep that working as well as I can for 476 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: as long as I can? We don't It's spoken about 477 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: in like you and I would talk about it, but 478 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: it seems like the general public don't think about it 479 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: so much, or it's not something that when we talk 480 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: about health and longevity, we don't talk about brain optimization. 481 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 2: Well, there is a lot at least on you know, 482 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 2: there's a lot going on in the logevity space which 483 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 2: I'm you know, involved in, And I can tell you this. 484 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 2: Taking care of your muscles is taking care of your brain. 485 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 2: You've got to exercise, You've got to maintain your muscle mass. 486 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 2: That is the single best thing you can do for 487 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 2: your brain. You know, the muscles communicate with the brain. 488 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: The muscles are still moving, They're telling the brain this 489 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 2: organism is doing great. It's adapting and surviving. Continue to 490 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 2: think and act youthfully to allow that to happen. We 491 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 2: are we serve our ability to move and hunt and 492 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 2: and and you adapt. Once we start adapting, then the 493 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 2: brain has no reason to continue. That organism is deciduous. 494 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 2: It's going to fall off the tree. 495 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that in interesting When you see somebody who's 496 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: otherwise healthy and they are they're for whatever reason, usually medically, 497 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: they're confined to a bed for two weeks or they 498 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: can't you know whatever, and it's like, oh my god, 499 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: you look I wouldn't tell them, but you look five 500 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: years older in two weeks.

It's like 503 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: your quads are shrinking by the fucking minute. It's like, 504 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: oh that being like truly immobile, where people are not moving, 505 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: as in they're not they're not walking, they're not ambulating, 506 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: they're not getting in and out of bed or in 507 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: and out of a chair or and that it just 508 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: disappears so rapidly. It's fucking terrifying. 509 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 2: Yep, it does, especially when you don't support the hormones 510 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 2: that maintain it.
