| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Doctor Burg, Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast. |
| 0:07.0 | Now, your host, the man taking your health to a whole new level. |
| 0:12.0 | Doctor, Eric Burg. |
| 0:14.0 | A person wanted to know, why is everyone getting shingles nowadays? |
| 0:17.0 | I mean, it seems like everyone's getting shingles. |
| 0:19.0 | Now, that's a bit of exaggeration, but there definitely is an increase in the amount of people getting shingles now. |
| 0:24.0 | What is shingles? |
| 0:25.0 | It's a virus. |
| 0:27.0 | It's called Herpes Zoster, and it's a virus that remains dormant for many, many years. |
| 0:33.0 | And then it can come out and create all sorts of pain and misery, especially on the surface of the skin that follows nerves around your ribcage. |

| 1:23.0 | It has to do with how healthy your immune system is. |
| 1:27.0 | If there's anything suppressing your immune system, that's when it comes out. |
| 1:32.0 | So again, the topic of viruses come down to your own immune system. Is it healthy? Is it weak? |
| 1:39.0 | It's an area that not many people emphasize, but it's not until your immune system gets weakened or suppressed that this virus then comes out and creates the problem. |
| 1:49.0 | So, let's talk about what can trigger this virus coming out of remission. |
