trouble. what are they? >> they might not come up in the physical. if you tag them early, you could take care of big problems. the first one, if your handwriting changes, it could be a sign of parkinson's. it's not shaky handwriting. >> this is incredibly interesting. parkinson's is caused by damage or loss of the neurons in the brain that make dopamine, really important in controlling movement in our body. some of the first signs you see, a typical tremor of parkinson's disease, but also the fingers and the hands become tense. so as you're writing out a sentence, your letters might start out larger and get smaller and smaller toward the end of the sentence as the fingers kind of clench up. >> that's the link. >> that is the link. >> how about random bursts of ang remember? >> that could be a sign of depression. you think lethargy, sadness. if you're having road rage in the first time of your life and it lasts for a couple weeks -- >> i think this one is such an
8:15 am
important point to make. depression is a complicated illness, and it has a huge constellation of symptoms, and most of them actually don't have to do with being sad or despondent like we think of depression usually. actually most people, the majority of people suffer from anger, irritability and bouts of rage as their main symptoms of depression. if you're one of those people, it's a sign that your depression may be more severe or even last longer. >> is failure of memory a symptom of something? >> forgetting people's names could be, you think i'm getting old or tired, dementia. but it could be hypothyroidism. >> sure. it's a term for low thyroid hormone. caused by an autoimmune deficiency in women. it results in brain fog, forgetfulness or feeling like you're in the static of a tv set. it's one of the most common and commonly overlooked causes of
8:16 am
sudden memory loss, but the key with hypothyroidism is it can be picked up so early. really quick, really simple blood test. >> sometimes when you're pregnant, after you have the baby, you can't remember anything. they always joke the whole pregnancy thing. >> that's true. even after pregnancy can result in hypothyroidism. it's a good time to check it then. >> what about dental issues? >> if you drink sugary drinks you might have trouble with the tooth enamel in the front. if you have trouble in the back, it could be a sign of gastrointestinal issues. >> specifically acid reflux. many people who have acid reflux, also called heartburn, you experience the sip cal symptoms of burning in your chest. a lot of people don't. acid reflux happens when acid from your stomach moves into your esophagus and into your mouth. as you're lying down flat in bed, it starts to erode the back

have the resources. they also, by the way, have an extreme talent in competition problem. but we're seeing it seep into other companies like construction companies or waste management companies. some of them are very glamorous, but some are just free food or more paid time off or just creating a culture where you feel valued. it's not always about the water slide in the lobby. it's about the intangible culture in the company. >> so the question becomes, since 2004, companies they say have spent 16% more on benefits, but only a 2% increase in wages, so are they coming at the expense of an increase in wages? >> well, i think there's a couple things going on there. number one is the stat on benefits also includes things like bonuses and health care. so that's packaged in that number. so it's not like they're taking all the raise money and putting it into the slide in the lobby. but i do think wages are a problem in this country. but also, if you don't offer the right wages, if your goal is to keep people and you don't offer them the right wages, they're
