Key Moments
Anesthesia: Benefits
Today's podcast is with my friend, brilliant cosmetic surgeon with a deep understanding of all things, beauty, hair, anesthesia, flow states, and more. Enjoy this discussion with Dr.
"No code needed. Hey, everybody. Today's podcast is with my friend, brilliant cosmetic surgeon with a deep understanding of all things, beauty, hair, anesthesia, flow states, and more. Enjoy this discussion with Dr."
Co2 Tolerance Discussion
We think of hypoxia, low oxygen. Building up CO2 tolerance would be an effect of the pool workout.
"And interestingly, much more of it is about building up CO2, not getting low on oxygen. Building up CO2 tolerance would be an effect of the pool workout. Exactly. That's like probably for me the main effect of what I'm after."
Mouth Taping Discussion
It makes their anesthesia better, makes their recovery better, makes their brain more protected. Give your mouth tape.
"Yeah. Well, what happened to me was I did, so I've done podcasts on mouth taping before. So inevitably, you know, the hostage tape and inhale and respire and all these companies just like sent boxes of nasal strips."
Co2 Tolerance Discussion
You just got to go listen to those other shows. Yeah, so a little light warm-up.
"So I will link to all that if you go to bengreenfieldlife.com/slash CAM2025, like C-A-M 2025. So you guys don't get a deep dive into Cameron's whole backstory on today's show. You just got to go listen to those other shows."
Ketogenic Diet Discussion
That's where everything boils down to. That's why I'm getting in the pool, you know, to be at my best.
"When I'm in ketosis going into surgery, it's that sense."
Neurofeedback: How To
That's the EEG-powered biofeedback and meditation. They have over a billion minutes of brain data and 200 research studies.
"That's the EEG-powered biofeedback and meditation. And then you can build your mental endurance and resilience through real-time neurofeedback sessions."
Ketogenic Diet Discussion
And, you know, 22 grams of protein. They're a great airplane snack, though.
"But that's a great way to get the protein that I need to inketosis."
Anesthesia Discussion
I would say ketones.
"There is nothing along the spectrum where these, at least principles, wouldn't be worth asking about, right? If you are having a brain surgery or huge orthopedics, like, okay, you're probably going..."
Creatine Discussion
So, this, I'm going to save myself a lot of syllables. That's the cognitive dysfunction thing.
"Well, this is the crazy thing. I would say, and at first it would be like 10% of my patients came in on creatine, predominantly working with women, right?"
Anesthesia Discussion
You mean almost like detoxification from your anesthesia, even though what you've described is less damaging, you still want that outflow.

Red Light Therapy: Benefits
Like we just really, whether you're healing from surgery, whether you're recovering from anesthesia, all of these things become really beneficial.
"And so, you know, it's this wild, beautiful double benefit. And I kind of love to talk about this just as that everything meets in the mitochondria at that point."
Sauna Discussion
That's obviously a brand that's Thera Light, I think, is the same company as Thera Body, I think. Their facelines called Theraface.
"So this is a dry sauna? So I have a beautiful hum hive, like dry sauna heater in there. You have the hum heater. It's like beautiful, wonderful. It's like maybe the best balance of aesthetics and function of anything. You know, they're so pretty."
Pemf Therapy Discussion
We have hyperbarics. I think PEMF is underutilized in all types of surgical recovery.
"We have hyperbarics. We have red light. I love PEMF. I think PEMF is underutilized in all types of surgical recovery. It's one of the things from a data standpoint that has like FDA indications for healing from non- and malunion of bones."
Vitamin D: Supplementation
That's maybe the most basic supplement before anybody having any surgery.
"That's maybe the most basic supplement before anybody having any surgery. If you're vitamin D optimized going into your surgery, your risks of all the bad things of surgery are so much lower..."
