| 0:00.0 | cross crawl exercises. Think about a baby crawling. You know, it might have its right arm coming up |
| 0:06.1 | and left leg coming up at the same time. It's the alternate extremities that are moving. That helps |
| 0:12.2 | to activate the corpus callosum, which is the part of our brain that links the right and left |
| 0:16.7 | hemisphere. And the better, the stronger than what we call neuroplastic that corpus callosum is, |
| 0:23.1 | the healthier our brain is going to be in general. And the ability to deal with stress, |
| 0:28.5 | our ability to handle stress and perform under pressure is enhanced. |
| 0:34.7 | Hello and welcome to the Dr. Jocker's functional nutrition podcast, the show designed to give you |
| 0:40.8 | science-based solutions to improve your health and life. I'm Dr. David Jockers, doctor of natural |
| 0:47.3 | medicine, and creator of Dr.Jockers.com, and I'm the host of this podcast. I'm here to tell you that your body was created to heal itself. |
| 0:57.0 | And on this show, we focus on strategies you can apply today to heal and function at your |
| 1:02.5 | best. |
| 1:03.4 | Thanks for spending time with me and let's go into the show. |
| 1:10.0 | If you've been listening to this podcast for any length of time, you know, one of the things I'm most excited about is neuroplasticity, which is one of the most groundbreaking things in neuroscience today. |
| 1:20.1 | It's the fact that your brain can rewire and heal itself. All it needs is nerve growth factor or NGF. Now, NGF is a protein that forms new neurons |
| 1:29.7 | in your brain. It regenerates old ones and enhances brain cell communication. And the best way to |
| 1:35.5 | naturally boost NGF levels is to take Lyons main mushroom, one of the most nutrient-rich |
| 1:41.7 | mushrooms in existence, made famous for its brain-boosting |
| 1:45.2 | capabilities. Online, you could find a ton of incredible Lion's Main studies showing how it boosts |
| 1:51.3 | memory staves off dementia, regenerates damaged brain cells, and enhances the brain cells you already |
| 1:56.9 | have. But here's what most of these studies leave out. Lions Main is notoriously difficult |
| 2:02.6 | for the body to absorb. All of its incredible brain feeding nutrients often get destroyed by your |
| 2:07.7 | stomach acid and never even make it to your bloodstream to boost NGF levels and enhance cognition. |
