No. 02:59 The issue is what is the cause of our healthcare crisis 03:02 and it has to do with the way people are living. 03:04 And no one's talking about that. 03:06 None of the politicians. 03:07 None of them talk about because 03:08 I think it's politically incorrect. 03:10 They can say, "Well you should be exercising every day, 03:11 you should be eating healthy." 03:13 They don't wanna hear that. 03:14 They want cheaper drugs of all... 03:16 I'll try to get better deals in drugs for you. 03:19 It's really the new insanity, Doctor. 03:21 It really is. 03:22 It's the new insanity and in our last program, 03:24 we talked about how people's minds 03:27 are influenced by what they eat. 03:29 It is. 03:31 But I wanna say to the audience as we start here today 03:33 because I don't want them to get it wrong. 03:37 We believe that we are saved 03:39 by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. 03:42 We believe in the Gospel of Christ. 03:45 We don't believe that we're saved by what we eat 03:47 or by what we drink 03:49 or by being vegetarian or vegans, do we? 03:53 From the spiritual sense, you are correct but what we eat 03:56 and what we drink does 03:57 can save us against heart disease, 03:59 diabetes and cancer. 04:00 But it doesn't get us into heaven, does it? 04:02 No, we're not saved. 04:03 It's not a test of our faith. 04:05 But Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life 04:09 and have it more abundantly." 04:11 That's John 10:10. 04:13 And God does want us to be healthy, 04:15 happy and He doesn't want us to have cancer. 04:18 No. 04:19 And if we are healthy and happy, 04:21 we treat these living temples that God have given us 04:24 and keeping it in good health, 04:26 we can do more to further God's work. 04:32 You're a graduate of Loma Linda University 04:35 which is a great place for health. 04:36 Yes. 04:38 Talk to me about 04:39 the New Testament concept of the body? 04:43 You know, this is very interesting 04:44 because of all religions, ancient and modern 04:47 and all the different religions, 04:49 Christianity is the one that really talks about is our body 04:52 is a temple of God 04:56 and the Holy Spirit living within us. 04:58 Now, you know the Greek concept. 05:01 The Greeks believe that the body was a shell. 05:03 Right. 05:05 And it contained an immortal soul. 05:06 This was an idea of dualism so when a person died, 05:11 the body was just the shell, but the soul went home to God. 05:16 But that is not the teaching of the New Testament. 05:17 It isn't. 05:19 You know, I admired as I remember one surgeon one day, 05:21 he told me that before he performed surgery, 05:25 he goes in the Bible, he looks at it, 05:26 he's going into a cathedral. 05:30 As a Christian, you know, he looks at that 05:33 and that's the way that we are. 05:34 That's a great idea. 05:36 And we need to treat our bodies that way. 05:37 The body as a cathedral? Yes. 05:39 It's not a garbage can with a hairy lid 05:42 that a lot of people just throw. 05:43 Not a garbage can with a hairy lid. 05:45 Did you get that one? 05:46 Throw in everything in it, you see. 05:47 Good one. 05:49 Now, I think it's 1 Corinthians 05:51 6 where Paul says, 05:54 "Don't you know that your body is the temple of God, 05:58 and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?" 06:01 If any man, somewhere he says, "If you defile this temple, 06:06 God will destroy you." 06:08 That's right. 06:09 Because this temple is Holy and you are that temple. 06:12 So this is a very opposite 06:14 of the pagan concept of the ancient Greeks. 06:17 I want to mention one thing about that too. 06:19 It's not that God's destroying us 06:21 and casting judgment on us for that. 06:22 No. 06:24 What it is, He's put laws of nature, laws of health. 06:27 We destroy ourselves by the way we live. 06:29 Talk to me about these laws of health, please? 06:31 Okay. 06:33 Well, the laws of health are the laws of nature, 06:35 they keep our body healthy 06:36 and that includes good nutrition, 06:38 particularly a plant-based diet, exercise... 06:40 But the Bible has got laws, 06:43 I mean nature's got laws is my point, I'm asking. 06:46 Yes, that we know of the Mosaic health laws 06:49 which talk about not eating blood, 06:51 not eating fat by having hygiene. 06:54 These are great health principles 06:56 that we find in the scriptures. 06:58 And, let me just take a little divergence. 07:01 Sure. 07:02 Tell me about the Gospel of Christ. 07:05 Now we're talking about the gospel of health, 07:08 but there's something more important, 07:11 that's the gospel of grace. 07:13 Now, you are a Christian. 07:14 Yes, I am. 07:15 So tell me about the gospel, please? 07:18 Well, the gospel, you know, Jesus came, 07:21 He died on the cross for us, for our sins, 07:24 you know, that's, the gospel is the good news. 07:26 It's good news, not the bad news? 07:27 No, the bad news is that we're sinners 07:30 and we should have eternal death. 07:33 The good news is through Jesus Christ, 07:36 we can have eternal life through Him 07:40 for dying on the cross for our sin. 07:43 And this is free, isn't it? 07:44 And this is free. 07:45 Want everybody to hear this. 07:47 You can be saved by the blood of Jesus now. 07:50 And if you believe in Jesus, 07:52 doesn't matter what you've done, 07:54 if you truly believe in Jesus, 07:57 you get today everlasting life 08:00 and you're going to live one day 08:01 forever with Him in the Kingdom of God. 08:04 This is the gospel, isn't it? 08:05 Yeah, that's true anti-aging, right? 08:07 You live forever. 08:08 Yeah, this is why it's called good news. 08:10 That's right. 08:12 So God wants us, we believe to be healthy, happy, 08:17 prosperous and successful. 08:19 That's right. 08:21 In doing so we can do more 08:23 to serve the Lord is to serve our fellowmen. 08:26 Now, this is something very important 08:29 because you're wealth of information, 08:33 there is certain super foods. 08:35 Yes, there are. 08:37 I mean these are super foods and if you eat the super foods, 08:41 you're going to be all things equal. 08:44 You're gonna be super healthy. 08:45 And you know why they're super foods 08:47 because God has created these foods. 08:49 We'll go over some of these 08:50 and they have wonderful health principles in them, 08:54 and this is compared to the super unhealthy foods 08:57 that everyone else is eating that has no nutritional values 08:59 and that contribute to disease and illness. 09:02 These are the foods that give us life. 09:03 Let me talk to the audience. 09:05 Now please listen up. 09:07 We're giving you information here today 09:10 which is worth more than a million dollars. 09:13 And the government 09:14 can't tell you this and lot of churches can' tell you this, 09:17 but the Bible tells us so many wonderful facts 09:21 and we have here today a man who is a health scientist. 09:27 And he's going to talk now 09:28 about some of the super foods so... 09:31 Okay. Let's look at. 09:33 We have Acai berry 09:34 which is a berry that comes down from Brazil, 09:37 loaded with antioxidants. 09:39 Say this word again. 09:40 Acai. Acai berries. 09:42 Here are some, they are rich in antioxidants, 09:45 they combat premature aging, 09:48 they combat free radical damage, 09:49 these compounds that unstable 09:52 that destroy our cells that can lead to cancer. 09:55 How do you get this stuff? 09:57 Where do you get this? 09:58 Well, you can get it, 09:59 luckily now it's all over America, 10:01 if you look in your health food stores, 10:02 you can go and see the smoothies 10:04 and all types of things they make out of Acai berries. 10:06 Are they full of additives? 10:09 What about sugars? 10:10 Oh, no, no, they're natural berries. 10:12 They're usually frozen 'cause they can spoil quickly. 10:15 I see them in a big place I go to, 10:17 I can't mention it publicly but sit starts with cost. 10:22 It's a big... 10:23 Oh, okay, yeah, I know that. 10:25 You know Costco? Right. 10:26 Now they've got this stuff for sale 10:27 and they've got it in juices. 10:29 They have it in juices, they also have them in bowls 10:32 and so forth with the fruits. 10:33 But in the juices would it be full of sugar? 10:36 You have to read the ingredients. 10:37 Some of them will add sugar to it and some won't. 10:40 So it just depends on the part. So it's a super food. 10:42 But it is a super food. 10:43 And, of course, almonds are a super food. 10:45 Almonds are a great healthy nut. 10:47 Now, I'm not talking about almonds 10:49 that have all the sugar on it and the salt and all that. 10:52 I'm talking about raw almonds 10:53 because it's a great source of healthy type of fat 10:57 what we call monounsaturated fats. 10:59 Do you eat almonds? 11:01 I eat almonds, I eat it raw. 11:02 I had almonds this morning for breakfast. 11:04 Okay, very good. That's why I'm full of energy. 11:06 That's good. 11:07 Okay, tell me more about almonds? 11:08 Well, almonds are also 11:10 they have that monounsaturated fat 11:11 which is a healthy type of fat, that's heart healthy. 11:13 Good for the heart. 11:14 It's good for the heart, it's high in fiber 11:16 and it's a good source of protein 11:17 and also it has calcium in it. 11:19 Good for the HDL? 11:21 It's good for HDL 11:23 which is the healthy type of cholesterol, so... 11:24 Yeah, I just threw that in so that you know I know a lot. 11:27 Yes, that's good. 11:29 But have some almonds every day 11:31 and they're great source of vitamin E 11:32 which is the antioxidants, 11:34 there's the fat soluble antioxidant. 11:35 That keeps within the fat cell parts of the cell, 11:38 keeps that from being oxidized. 11:40 Vitamin E? Vitamin E. 11:41 And that's good for us? 11:43 And that's very good for your health. 11:44 So how many almonds do you need to take? 11:47 You don't need a lot, you know, we talked about as a serving, 11:50 just a small little handful of almonds 11:52 is a serving of almonds. 11:53 Now you can go overboard, 11:54 don't eat that whole can of almonds. 11:56 But I have a big handful of almonds. 11:58 Okay. Yeah. That's good. That's all right. 12:00 I usually overdo things. 12:02 Okay. Okay. 12:04 Let's take look at some of the other super foods. 12:05 Then there's apples, you know, they say, 12:07 "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." 12:08 Yeah. 12:10 Now, I've one thing I've to say. 12:11 When you eat apples, eat only organic apples, 12:14 only organic apple products, you know why... 12:16 Let me, I'm gonna tell the people once again, 12:18 don't eat ordinary apples. 12:20 Make sure they're organic because... 12:22 Because they're on the list of the Dirty Dozen. 12:25 The most conventional apples, they use a lot of pesticides. 12:28 Yes, all the poisons. Yes. 12:30 And that's why all these baby foods 12:33 now using organic apples for children. 12:35 You should try to get organic, whenever you can. 12:38 Whenever you can. Yeah. 12:39 They contain these polyphenol antioxidants. 12:42 They protect against free radical damage, 12:44 maintain good health, they contain pectin. 12:47 Pectin is a type of fiber that you find in almonds 12:50 and that type of fiber actually lowers your cholesterol. 12:53 So it's a soluble fiber. 12:57 An apple a day keeps the doctor away. 12:59 And they actually help to control blood sugar 13:02 for people with type-2 diabetes. 13:05 So apples are very good... So stabilize blood sugar? 13:07 It can help do that because of the pectin, 13:09 the soluble fiber that we find in apples. 13:10 I'm amazed. Yeah. 13:12 Keep going. What else we got? Okay. 13:14 So let's go on the list and see what else we got here. 13:16 An apple a day keeps the doctor away. 13:17 Yes, okay. 13:19 You know, there was one French study 13:20 that show that eating two apples per day 13:22 resulted in an average drop in cholesterol by 10%. 13:25 That's a lot. 13:27 Yeah, that equals 20 to 30% reduction of heart disease. 13:30 When I get out of here, I'm gonna have an apple. 13:32 And one Mayo Clinic study showed that it help prevent 13:35 the growth of prostate cancer cells. 13:37 Okay. But apples are really good. 13:39 The other one is apricots. 13:40 In Hunza, the people who live to be 120 years of age 13:45 and lot of centenarians, they eat apricots every day, 13:48 both in the fresh and even dry them to preserve in... 13:51 You think dried apricots are okay? 13:53 They're good if they don't have sugar added to them 13:55 and if they're the unsulphured type, 13:58 you know, they wanna make them look pretty 14:00 and sometimes they use sulphur dioxide. 14:01 Don't get those types. 14:03 Get the regular, dried apricots without these sugars. 14:06 Yeah, maybe tribe of Jose 14:07 would have those, wouldn't they? 14:08 They may have some of those. Okay. 14:10 They're good source of vitamin A. 14:11 Apricots, folks, apricots, apples, 14:14 almonds put this down in the molecules of your mind. 14:18 This is worth more than a million bucks, okay? 14:21 Beta-Carotene formed vitamin A contains fiber and potassium. 14:24 So apricots are very healthy thing. 14:26 And by the way in the Bible 14:28 when it says golden apples. Yeah? 14:30 Those are apricots. Oh. 14:31 So it's a Bible food. 14:33 Well, that's a bit free nut. 14:34 Holy foods of the Bible. 14:35 Should've said apricots, okay. 14:37 And it protects against free radical damage, 14:39 helps to maintain healthy skin and as I said, 14:43 it's a staple food in Hunza, 14:45 one of the areas of the world where people live... 14:46 Yeah, where people live 120 or something. 14:48 That's right. Yeah. 14:49 Blueberries! I have blueberries every day. 14:52 Blueberries are wonderful because they are brain food, 14:55 and they're also rich in these antioxidants. 14:58 Goodness, I need a lot of blueberries then. 15:01 They contain powerful antioxidants, 15:03 what we call anthocyanins and flavanols. 15:06 They fight free radical damage 15:09 so it doesn't damage the DNA within your cells. 15:11 Now, I gotta tell the folks something 15:13 who are watching the program. 15:15 Hear this, I'm not working for Costco 15:18 and I'm not getting paid by Costco 15:21 and I'm not on a subsidy 15:23 from Costco any of those things. 15:24 But if you go to Costco, you got big bags of organic... 15:27 That's organic. 15:28 I buy mines, it's organic too, organic blueberries frozen. 15:32 By the way, you don't have to get fresh blueberries. 15:33 And they're cheap. Yeah. 15:35 Fresh is much more expensive. 15:37 Get the frozen, organic blueberries. 15:39 Big bag! Look at all these benefits. 15:41 Strengthens tissues and blood vessels, 15:44 protects eye health, wards off varicose veins, 15:47 protects against heart disease and cancer. 15:49 Blueberries are a powerful berry 15:52 to include in your diet every day. 15:54 And by the way, they are low on the glycemic index 15:57 so it's good for people trying to control their blood sugar. 15:59 Yeah, doesn't put your sugar up. 16:01 That's right. 16:02 I have blueberries every morning. 16:04 I do too. 16:05 Yeah. I do. 16:06 And they're anticancer foods that contain substances 16:10 that actually prevent carcinogens 16:12 from binding to the DNA in cells. 16:14 Folks, you better keep listening to this 16:15 'cause this information is worth more 16:18 than a million dollars. 16:21 Blueberries from Costco, not anywhere... 16:25 They better sponsor you. 16:26 But listen, they ought to be organic? 16:28 Yes, organic is better. 16:30 Not the stuff that's covered with all the garbage 16:31 as you know. 16:33 Some places grow them, 16:34 they spray them with pesticides. 16:36 Yeah. 16:37 Another one is broccoli, not President Bush's... 16:40 George Herbert W... Favorite. 16:42 But I'll tell you, broccoli is like 16:44 throwing cancer bombs in the body. 16:47 It has this anti cancer compounds in them. 16:50 They're also good sources of calcium, 16:53 more absorbable than milk calcium, 16:55 high in vitamin K. 16:56 These are very important bone nutrients for you. 16:59 But the cancer properties, 17:02 we call they're anti-inflammatory properties 17:04 but also has these sulforaphane that you see there. 17:08 This actually inhibits 17:10 the proliferation of cancer cells. 17:12 And I gotta keep eating them but I hate broccoli. 17:15 I hate broccoli but Beverley says to me, 17:18 "Eat you broccoli." 17:20 So I eat the broccoli. 17:23 That's my favorite vegetable actually. 17:24 It's your favorite vegetable? 17:26 My favorite. 17:27 It's a cruciferous vegetable 17:29 which have these anticancer products... 17:30 It's what? 17:31 Cruciferous vegetable they call. 17:33 It's a category. 17:34 That puts me off. It has like a cross on it. 17:36 That's where the cruciferous comes from. 17:38 And it contains compounds that stimulate enzymes 17:42 that break down cancer causing chemicals. 17:44 Oh, I tell you, folks, don't give up. 17:46 You better eat your broccoli because it's anticancer. 17:49 Right. 17:51 And you can get to like it, I'm sure. 17:52 Sure. 17:53 You know, some people even grind up 17:55 and they put in their smoothie with other things 17:56 that take the flavor out of it if they like it. 17:58 They deserve a special medal. 18:00 Cinnamon is a healthy food. 18:02 In cinnamon, by the way has compounds that can... 18:06 It's a traditional remedy for digestion, 18:07 but it also has compounds that can help against diabetes. 18:12 One of these cinnamon things on the screen, these likes? 18:15 That's a dried cinnamon, 18:16 you know, cinnamon's from a bark from a tree. 18:18 And I recommend organic cinnamon also. 18:21 So where do you buy that stuff? 18:23 You can buy that... 18:24 Well, cinnamon powder, 18:25 you'll buy as cinnamon powder for most people. 18:27 You're not gonna chew in the bark necessarily. 18:29 No. But it has anti-inflammatory... 18:31 I think the bark looks pretty nice, 18:32 look like chocolate. 18:34 Almost, looks like little bit. 18:36 Anti-inflammatory compounds helps with pain and stiffness 18:39 in muscle joints. 18:41 What we call carminative spice that helps relieve gas. 18:45 But the other interesting thing 18:46 about it is it helps control blood sugar. 18:49 It does? 18:50 Yeah, Nathan Pritikin recommended 18:52 and said that using sugar on your oatmeal and foods, 18:55 sprinkle cinnamon 'cause it has sweet flavor. 18:58 Yeah. 18:59 But not cinnamon buns? 19:01 Not cinnamon buns. 19:02 You know, we're talking now the cinnamon buns. 19:04 No, and that doesn't counteract all that butter. 19:06 It doesn't? No. 19:07 It actually has... 19:09 Accept baby if you ate a lot of them. 19:10 Yeah. 19:11 It has Methyl hydroxychalcone polymer. 19:14 Don't try to remember that word. 19:16 No, I won't. 19:17 But that increases glucose metabolism in cells 19:19 and it actually mimics insulin functions. 19:21 Okay, after this I'm off to get broccoli and cinnamon. 19:24 Maybe I could put some cinnamon on the broccoli. 19:26 Put it on there, it may taste better for you, yeah. 19:29 I think it'll make it taste better. 19:30 Citrus fruits of all kinds. 19:32 Now I know, 19:33 you know, people drink these gallons of orange juice. 19:35 It's better to eat the fruit, the whole fruit, 19:38 nothing but the fruit. 19:39 That's bad news, isn't it? 19:40 Drinking orange juice? 19:42 If you drink too much of that, so concentrated, 19:44 you can fit six orange juice into one glass, you know. 19:47 I read a report. 19:48 I don't know whether it's true or not. 19:49 But I read all these reports. 19:51 They say that they've done a lot of scientific research 19:55 and people who drink lots of orange juice die quicker. 19:59 They don't live as long. 20:01 Well, I don't know about that but... 20:02 It's full up on sugar. 20:03 It is high in sugar so... 20:05 And isn't sugar sugar? 20:06 Sugar sugar but when it's in the whole fruit form, 20:10 you're getting fiber with it 20:12 and you're getting other compounds. 20:13 But that's not juice? 20:15 And that's just not juice in it all. 20:16 No, juicing it is not the natural form, is it? 20:19 Too much juice is not good, particularly fruit juices. 20:22 Yes, stay with us 20:23 because there's still good news to come. 20:24 Keep going. 20:26 Vitamin C, rich in vitamin C and bioflavonoids 20:28 contains a good source of fiber, 20:29 that's the pectin fiber 20:31 that actually helps lower cholesterol. 20:32 And it contains some anti-inflammatory properties. 20:35 So it's better to eat it as God made it. 20:39 I say eat the whole fruit. Eat an orange. 20:41 Yes, eat the whole fruit, that's better for you. 20:42 It's okay to skin it. 20:44 See, like I say, in juices, 20:46 you can get six glass orange juice 20:48 in a glass and how many people can eat six oranges? 20:50 Well the point is, it does fills you up on sugar. 20:53 It does. 20:54 And I've heard people say, "Oh, it's natural sugar." 20:57 But what they've gotta realize, 20:58 Doctor, as you've taught eat sugar, 21:01 eat sugar, eat sugar. 21:03 And we eat too much of it. 21:04 And when the pancreas sees it, it can't tell the difference. 21:07 Right. Right. 21:09 Okay, let's keep going. 21:10 Okay Concord grapes. 21:12 Oh, Concord grapes are rich in these antioxidants too. 21:15 Those purple grapes are great 21:18 as they're pharmacy of healthful nutrients. 21:20 Actually they help you with life extension 21:23 and anti-aging and longevity 21:25 because they have these compounds in them 21:28 that are anti... 21:29 Resveratrol for instance 21:31 is one of the compounds antioxidants 21:35 that we find that... 21:36 Do you know they talk about the French paradoxing 21:38 drinking wine cause it's Resveratrol. 21:40 Well you don't have to have alcohol. 21:42 You could have a little grape juice 21:43 or whole grapes and get that resveratrol too. 21:46 And these are called Concord grapes... 21:47 Concord grapes are excellent. 21:49 Now, you know, we gotta do. 21:51 We got a lot of material to go through. 21:53 Sure. 21:55 So I want us to go through this a little faster. 21:56 Okay, well just put the list on. 21:58 I don't want us to lose any of this material. 22:00 Okay. 22:01 Anti-aging and high concentration 22:04 of that resveratrol. 22:06 It has protective factors of heart disease. 22:08 Keeps the blood flowing well. 22:10 Yeah, yeah. Another one, flaxseeds. 22:12 Flaxseeds are rich in these natural Omega-3 fatty acids. 22:16 Flaxseeds? 22:17 You don't have to get it from fish 22:18 if you want or concerned about having from animal source, 22:22 you can get it in a plant source. 22:23 It has lignans. 22:24 These help fight against hormonal levels 22:27 that can increase tumor growth. 22:29 And it tastes okay. And tastes good. 22:30 And ground your flaxseeds when you use it 22:32 because if you just have the whole flaxseed, 22:33 it might go through your whole body and then you... 22:36 What's so if you chew them? 22:37 You could chew them but if you can grind them, 22:40 it releases those Omega-3 fatty acids. 22:41 Yeah, okay. 22:43 Garlic is another one. 22:44 I spent two years studying garlic. 22:45 Oh, I like garlic. 22:47 Another Bible healing food, garlic... 22:49 Why do you say it's a Bible healing food? 22:51 Because it was used by the Jewish people, 22:54 it was the food used in the Holy land quite a bit. 22:55 But they're pretty smart people. 22:57 And they are. 22:58 You can buy also almonds that are covered in garlic. 23:01 Sure. 23:02 I've got someone in my office. Okay. 23:04 These are the reasons I'm so full of energy today 23:09 eating this garlic. 23:10 But this garlic helps you 23:12 keep your blood cholesterol in control. 23:14 Studies had shown that it can keep, 23:16 help with the blood pressure, 23:17 cardiovascular benefits, so garlic is good. 23:19 And National Cancer Institute... 23:21 Eat the garlic, my friend, eat the garlic and the almonds. 23:24 And the National Cancer Institute 23:25 listed of all the cancer fighting foods, 23:27 garlic was number one. 23:29 Let's say that again of all the cancer... 23:31 When they made a pyramid of the cancer fighting foods 23:33 and the number one was garlic. 23:35 I wanna talk to the TV audience. 23:38 Garlic is number one for fighting cancer. 23:41 Get this, garlic. Keep going, Doctor. 23:43 And ginger, I know you like that, 23:44 you like that ginger tea. 23:46 I believe you like to drink that. 23:47 I like ginger covered with chocolate. 23:50 Well, I don't know about that but anyway... 23:52 Dark chocolate. 23:53 It's a natural remedy. 23:55 It's a digestive aid. 23:56 What do the doctors tell you when you have an upset stomach? 23:58 Drink some ginger ale or eat some ginger. 24:00 Yes, indeed. Yes. 24:01 Well, that's because it has compounds in it 24:03 that can help with digestive issues... 24:06 So ginger... 24:07 And anti-inflammatory properties too. 24:09 And I'm told it can help a little bit if you get dizzy. 24:12 Yes, it does. 24:14 My great doctor told me. 24:15 Sea sickness Sea sickness. 24:16 When people go out on boats, they have some ginger. 24:18 I'll take ginger with you when you get on the boat. 24:20 Goji berries, these are that berries 24:23 that come from the Himalaya areas in China. 24:26 Used in Tibet for 1,700 years 24:29 as a traditional Chinese medicine. 24:30 Lot of the Chinese herbal medicines 24:32 use goji berries in them 24:34 because it's considered for longevity 24:36 and strength building. 24:37 And it's one of the most nutrient dense foods 24:40 on all the earth. 24:42 Amazing. 24:43 Eighteen amino acids, lots of great minerals, 24:46 natural fatty acids and a bit carotene, vitamin C. 24:49 it's a great food to include in your food. 24:52 Sprinkle it on salads, and include that... 24:53 Do you eat this stuff? 24:55 Yeah, I have goji berries. 24:57 I make a smoothie that you put it into. 25:00 It improves immune response 25:02 and that's been shown in clinical studies as well. 25:05 So goji berries is a real popular food. 25:08 Go-go goji berries. And kale. 25:10 There's nothing like kale. 25:11 Kale is a rich source of calcium. 25:13 In fact the more calcium absorbility than milk 25:19 and without all the cholesterol. 25:22 And also here one of the most nutrients dense foods 25:24 on the face of earth. 25:25 Your greens are the most important foods 25:27 to get into you as far as healthy nutrition. 25:29 So we got to pause on this. 25:31 The greens are the most important foods you can get? 25:33 We need to get more greens into that. 25:35 People do not eat enough greens. 25:36 I don't have enough greens 'cause I don't like broccoli. 25:39 I'm not too keen on kale. 25:41 But kale is very good for you. 25:43 Kale is excellent. 25:44 Beverley tries to feed me on kale and broccoli. 25:46 It has Lutein and Zeaxanthin 25:48 which is good for protecting against eye disease 25:51 such as macular degeneration and cataracts, 25:55 and it's great source of, as I said vitamin... 25:57 Okay, we gotta keep going. 25:58 Okay, mangoes. Now we're talking. 26:01 I don't know why I had a mango tree in my backyard. 26:04 It has a great source of antioxidants. 26:06 Yeah, I love mangoes. 26:07 And super antioxidants in mangoes. 26:11 You know, they're sweet, 26:12 so you know, you eat them in moderation 26:13 but you don't need that many to get a lot of good nutrients. 26:16 No. 26:17 And they also fight against cancer 26:20 and they're good for the skin. 26:21 That's a winner. I'm voting for mango. 26:23 Okay, you like mangoes. Yes. 26:25 Better than broccoli, right? 26:26 Oh, no comparison. 26:28 And let's take another, mushrooms. 26:30 Mushrooms.

Oats. Oh, oats. 26:59 Do you know that's one of the interesting things 27:00 when they studied people have lived to be 100 years of age 27:03 in the United States, 27:04 they found a lot of them had oatmeal for breakfast. 27:06 What about fast oats, you know quick oats? 27:09 Okay, they're not as good as the steel cut oats. 27:13 The steel cut oats are the best type 27:15 because they don't release the carbohydrates. 27:17 And it's a great food. 27:18 And it's a great food. 27:19 Now I've got... 27:21 We've had some great news 27:22 but now we got a little bit of bad news. 27:23 You know what it is? 27:25 We're coming to the end of this program. 27:27 Okay. 27:28 But we've been talking about the super, duper, 27:31 the wonderful foods and even though 27:34 the Bible is not primarily a book about diet, 27:38 God wants us to be happy and healthy 27:40 and the secrets of health 27:42 are found in the Holy Scriptures. 27:44 They are. 27:46 And you have been a perfect guest, 27:47 Dr. Westerdahl. 27:49 We're grateful to you. 27:50 We're so glad that you joined us today. 27:53 If you would like this DVD, 27:55 then please write to me at the address on the screen, 27:57 John Carter P.O. 27:59 Box 1900, Thousand Oaks, California 91358. 28:03 Write to me also in Australia. 28:05 Dr. Westerdahl, 28:06 thank you so much and thank you so much 28:09 for joining us today at The Carter Report. 28:17 For a copy of today's program, please contact us at P.O. 28:20 Box 1900, 28:22 Thousand Oaks, California 91358. 28:26 Or in Australia, contact us at P.O. 28:29 Box 861, Terrigal, 28:32 New South Wales 2260. 28:36 This program is made possible 28:38 through the generous support of viewers like you. 28:41 We thank you for your continued support. 28:44 May God richly bless you. |
