Hi Brad, This comment pertains to Bob. I am aware that Bob has been advised that he has Cerebellar ataxia with speech impairment, which according to your joint video presentation a few months ago was attributed to a genetic basis based on expert opinions. While neurology is not my specialty, during the course of my medical residency and traing we saw cases of cerebellar disease presenting as Wernicke's encephalopathy due to severe thiamine ( Vitamin B1 ) deficiency. With high doses of Vitamin B1 patient's neurological symptoms would improve over time. I know that Bob had mentioned that he was evaluated at the Mayo clinic and I am confident that all possible etiologies were explored and excluded prior to attributing this to a genetic basis. In fact while I was specializing in my field, a co-resident specialized in neurology and was appointed later as a senior neurologist at Mayo. The postive therapetic response to Vitamin B1 in high doses has been well documented in the literature in those afflicted with Wernicke's. The fact that high dose Vitamin B1 therapy is a relatively benign form of treatment, some neurologists may consider a therapeutic trial and monitor the response. I know that if Bob was my brother, I would accompany him with his appointment to his neurologist and implore the neurologist to commence a therapeutic trial of high dose Vitamin B1. There is not much to lose and potentially a great deal to gain. Wishing Bob the best. I enjoy your presentations and often recommend your educational videos to my patients who are embarking on physical therapy for various conditions. Thanks for all you guys do !
I send this opinion and I’m not an md but it would definitely be something I would try. High doses thiamine is doing amazing things for people right now!
I wish you guys would make a 20 minute compilation of the best exercises for a daily routine! I would work out with it daily!I have an eliptical( bought the floor model at Sears years ago.....great price!).I also have the mini peddler.
It isn't an exercise, but if you put your feet up against a wall while you are laying in bed for about fifteen minutes immediately before going to sleep it allows the blood to drain down into the body and circulate while you sleep. Take 15 minutes to read a book and, in my case made a world of difference in my leg pain.
The reason for this is because you're helping your blood go through your heart cuz it's lower, it takes 6 mins for your bods whole blood to he filtered through your kidneys, make them healthier, after 50 they won't work as well, watch your salt intake, it's hidden everywhere, a grain over's gonna marinate/toughen you up like deli meat 🍖, I'm sure of it! ❤
this is a very simple excersice. i do it for 30 minutes a day. one hour after meal to burn calories , some benefits i can get. Fresh, good sleep, maintain blood pressure. Thank you for sharing ideas and challange me to improve body health in simple way. The key is consistency.
Awww haven’t seen anyone in a while that says “toodles” too! Made my day! Btw you seem sweet and enthusiastic. Like the kind of person that people would come to for comfort or a really loved auntie, something like that. God bless you and toodles!
@@Deinesness you made my day, thank you so much for this! I love this channel, the exercises have been extremely helpful to me and I share them too! Have an amazing day!
Thanks a lot guys, I sent this to my Mum who has terrible leg pain at night due to terrible circulation, and hasn't had any solutions from her, Doctor, who hasn't found any solutions.
The stationary bike chair is perfect with the standing desks. I use mine while reading email. Typing on a keyboard and biking ,well that’s a little harder lol 😂
I have chronic venous insufficiently (CVI) and think I read most exercise that does not cause high blood pressure spikes would help - e.g. steady aerobics, high rep resistance training, keep moving, etc... Avoid things like running, heavy weight training, isometrics e.g plank. Is this correct ?
This is something I do any time I'm sitting, pumping my feet. It does work. I even do it under the seat when I'm on an airplane. As well as wearing compression socks when I fly somewhere. It makes a difference. Thanks guys! 😊❤
Hey boys, quick question... We recently bought a vibration plate... do they work well for circulation? I walk between 5 and 8 miles a day and got terrific results as far as losing weight loss, but even still I find the pins and needles in my lower legs and cold feet. Also I sleep on an adjustable mattress and base. This vibration plate seems very durable and feels great (kinda feel like a can of paint being shaken lol) Is their science behind it, does it really help?
Here is a link to all related videos that we have done. Hopefully you can find some exercises in one or more of these that can help: www.youtube.com/@BobandBrad/search?query=knee%20pain
Electric bicycles are bringing many older adults back to cycling. Ebikes make hills easy. Anyone in good enough shape to ride a bicycle should consider using one for short distance travel. Using it regularly is good exercise and it will put a smile on your face. Using it while you are still healthy and strong enough might help delay any age related muscle weakness and keep you active as you age.
I bought a Cubi it's small and first fine in my small apartment for cycling while I'm sitting but I've been dealing with hip bursitis so it's hard to do any exercise that doesn't flare it up and I do chair yoga on good days can't do any squats too painful for my knees
@@Alicia-tg8ei Yes Seriously. Seems you are somehow thinking I am speaking negatively about the content. I did not say that. The content is great. I am talking about the entertainment value and feel good fun vibes the channel use to have way back. I have been a subscriber for a long time. I miss the quips and jokes and foolery. This is my feedback and opinion I am sharing with the team. There is no social injustice happening here for you to white knight. 👍
My favorite piece of exercise equipment is a rebounder, I’m 62 and I purchased one for my 80+ yo stepmom. They are great for circulation and lymphatic buildup in the legs. Great for improving balance and even building muscle. There is even benefits to sitting on it and bouncing. Also, great weight bearing exercise for keeping bones strong. Oh, and did I mention it’s fun.
Thanks for video I got bone to bone in my knees an gout in my feet Iam over weight 57 my legs an feet swollen up I got arthritis in my hand to I don't won't have surgery on my knees it didn't help my sister
My son gave his chick a treadmill for Xmas, it was delivered here so I was glad to wrap it for him, the box was huge to say the least, know how many times I lost the scotchtape(3)? 🤔
I'm on leg circulation hollistic med, chesnut and crushed grapeseed, watching not to x 'em and keep 'em a bit bent lying down, I've always had cold feet (yes yes very funny) but never thought it was from poor circulation, it was, as a baby Mom could never dress them, make them warm enough and hubby's useless at letting me warm them up on his back, pussy!

@@BobandBrad Thank you so much.
Would jogging, gentle bouncing, stepping, gentle star jumps, etc... on a rebounder help circulation or cause futher harm to damaged leg veins? Thanks
Which do you recommend, upright or recumbent stationary biking?
