food press the tongue to the roof of your mouth brain freeze also known as phenopalantine ganglia neuralgia talk about a mouthful can actually be cured by touching the top of your upper palatine area with your tongue because apparently your tongue has a lot of blood vessels so it's fine it's fine bright side you win on that one can't stop laughing pinch yourself can you imagine can't stop laughing punch yourself in the face itchy mosquito bite please be good advice apply some deodorant there's treatments for mosquito bites put a little corticosteroid on it my god can't get to sleep bling fast for one i mean this is ridiculous you're literally just saying stuff got a headache lift up your arm got a pancreatitis lift up your leg how emotions affect our bodies anger weakens those you can actually say any negative emotion can impact any organ negatively this has truth to it but the fact that they're isolating a specific organ is complete bs anger weakens your body if it's chronic because you're in this hyper fight or flight para sympathetic state and as a result your blood pressure is higher your stress hormones are higher therefore you're not recovering you're not getting nutrients out of food as well and as a result your organs kind of suffer chronically not just your liver what do you think your brain is like chilling in your liver anxiety we okay anxiety in the stomach actually do have an important connection because the gut mind brain connection is real and also the stomach is oftentimes the first place where you feel anxiety the term butterflies in your stomach because of the hypersympathetic state so basically you have two types of nervous systems in your body parasympathetic and sympathetic sympathetic fight or flight you see bear you run away parasympathetic is rest and digest which is good for your stomach you get circulation going there so if you see a lion or a bear all the blood flow would leave your stomach well not all of it but most of it will leave your stomach go to your legs to help you escape go to your lungs all that stuff so anxiety does affect the stomach i vibe with this one love brings inner peace and harmony it strengthens your mind and body who's who's the savage that's gonna disagree with this who is going to look at this and be like love horrible for your organs honestly love is horrible for your organs if it's not reciprocated and your partner leaves you and they ghost you like you text somebody okay i'm talking about my problems i'm gone hold on i gotta sneeze what was the hack to stop the sneeze oh is to make yourself sneeze like oh my god it worked take back every single day every negative thing i said about bright side i take apologize i'm sorry okay brush brush brush you don't want to brush that hard that looks a little aggressive oh my goodness now wait a second wait a second she's doing aloe vera from the plant she's brushing with olive see i could have helped this individual without the aloe vera don't brush your teeth so aggressively step one step two perhaps you have gingivitis and you need a visit to the dentist you need to figure out why your gums are bleeding there's also mouthwashes that have aloe vera in them as part of the ingredients to help with bleeding gums unless you cure or attack the source of the inflammation it's going to keep happening a heart attack in women does not happen the same way as with men the first really good piece of advice from bright side that i've seen my god because classically when we look at research articles they've been described by white men who say that they have an elephant sitting on their chest and we call that classical heart attack symptoms but that is not the way most humans experience them we have to think about diversity when we're looking at research pain in the chest shoulders arm and neck and left arm pain the chest back or the jaw true and you got to throw in some other symptoms in there like shortness of breath diaphoresis aka sweating cold heavy sweating there you go anxiety weakness or tiredness totally sometimes you can even feel like heartburn or stomach pain stomach upset nausea digestive upset heartburn vomiting labored breathing coughing we talked about that flu-like symptoms breathlessness facts facts no post office before a heart attack there was physical exertion there was strong physiological stress that could actually happen for anybody because if you have stress whether it's physical or emotional that raises your heart rate which increases work on the heart and if you have blockages in the heart you're going to exacerbate how much damage is happening in the heart at the slightest sign of a heart attack see a doctor perform an ecg if you're having these symptoms you should absolutely call 911 especially if you have like risks for heart disease family history age cholesterol issues diabetes etc but you should also have a good rapport with your doctor for them to be able to perform certain things to make sure that you're at low risk for developing heart disease in fact we do a calculated test where we look at your cholesterol your blood pressure other variables and we do a calculation on what is your risk to have vascular disease either a stroke or a heart attack in the next 10 years and based off that we can give some recommendations on some medications literally the worst medical games i've played of all time they're right here click to check that stay happy and help [Music]
