I have diabetic nerve damage.
00:00:01.98\00:00:03.35
Now, I really don't
like to take the medications
00:00:03.50\00:00:05.62
for that because of
the baleful side effects.
00:00:05.65\00:00:07.53
Is there any help for me.
00:00:07.56\00:00:08.93
I am taking insulin and
diabetic drug medication,
00:00:09.33\00:00:12.41
is there anything I can
do naturally that will help
00:00:12.71\00:00:15.90
to manage my glucose levels.
00:00:15.93\00:00:17.46
Well, today's program
is just for you entitled
00:00:17.81\00:00:19.85
"Diabetes and Botanical
medicines," so stay by.
00:00:20.25\00:00:23.07
Hi, welcome to "Abundant
Living" this is Curtis Eakins
00:00:50.31\00:00:52.95
and I would like to introduce my
00:00:52.98\00:00:54.35
beautiful bride, Paula Eakins.
00:00:54.38\00:00:56.57
Hello. Hello. Hello.
You doing fine today.
00:00:57.29\00:00:59.93
I am doing
wonderful. Praise the Lord,
00:01:00.28\00:01:02.06
Praise the Lord.
You look wonderful too.
00:01:02.09\00:01:03.46
Praise the Lord.
Thank you, thank you.
00:01:03.49\00:01:04.86
And I thank you for
being with me on all of these
00:01:04.89\00:01:06.54
programs by the
way, just want to.
00:01:06.57\00:01:07.95
Absolutely. Publicly
thank the people as they're
00:01:07.98\00:01:11.61
listening that I am
thanking you for that.
00:01:11.64\00:01:13.01
Publicly thank the people?
No, I want to publicly thank
00:01:13.52\00:01:16.73
you in front of the
people while they're listening.
00:01:16.76\00:01:18.51
Okay, just get
yourself together. Okay.
00:01:19.84\00:01:22.35
Now, anyway, this is a
running series on diabetes,
00:01:22.38\00:01:26.67
defeating diabetes. This is
a series and this is the last
00:01:26.70\00:01:30.08
part of a four part
series on that and we're gonna
00:01:30.11\00:01:33.45
talking about diabetes
and botanical medicine,
00:01:33.48\00:01:35.59
and not just botanical medicine.
00:01:36.40\00:01:37.77
we say botanical
as opposed to herbs,
00:01:37.80\00:01:39.58
botanical because
we're dealing with botany,
00:01:39.87\00:01:42.79
but some people
use the word herbs,
00:01:43.51\00:01:45.64
so we can use that probably
00:01:45.67\00:01:47.04
interchangeably but we
also going to be talking
00:01:47.07\00:01:48.98
about supplementation
too, in relationship to
00:01:49.01\00:01:51.69
nerve damage,
neuropathy as well.
00:01:51.72\00:01:53.72
So, want to stay
tuned for all of this
00:01:53.75\00:01:57.31
whole series,
defeating diabetes.
00:01:57.34\00:01:59.13
Defeating diabetes,
we've been through a
00:01:59.16\00:02:00.53
whole out talking
about different things.
00:02:00.56\00:02:02.06
Oh! Yes, we have.
Maybe we want to do a little
00:02:02.09\00:02:03.46
quick review of that. You
can go ahead on and review,
00:02:03.49\00:02:07.60
I mean everything is
gonna in our workbook even so.
00:02:07.86\00:02:10.58
Well, that's true too.
You know, I know we got a
00:02:10.61\00:02:12.55
quite a bit we're gonna
cover especially with this
00:02:12.58\00:02:14.17
botanical medicine,
looking into botanical medicine.
00:02:14.20\00:02:17.05
Okay. So, they need
this either you know
00:02:17.08\00:02:20.82
get the work book.
Okay. It's all there.
00:02:20.85\00:02:23.13
Alright, I want to start
off, because when you think
00:02:23.16\00:02:25.72
about diabetes I always
hear about nerve damage,
00:02:25.75\00:02:28.77
that's true, to the
feet speak specifically,
00:02:28.80\00:02:31.00
so talk a little bit
about diabetes as it relates
00:02:31.03\00:02:34.45
to nerve damage.
Nerve damage, yeah,
00:02:34.48\00:02:37.07
a lot of people who
are diabetic do have
00:02:37.32\00:02:40.06
nerve damage. Now, the
medical term is neuropathy.
00:02:40.09\00:02:43.50
Neuro meaning nerve.
Neuropathy, nerve damage,
00:02:44.00\00:02:46.94
and 40 to 50 percent
people have some type
00:02:47.19\00:02:50.76
of nerve damage.
The reason being because
00:02:50.79\00:02:53.68
when there is too
much glucose, blood sugar
00:02:54.02\00:02:57.78
in the blood stream
it damage the nerves,
00:02:58.45\00:03:01.60
so nerve damage. Now,
with that in mind we have
00:03:01.97\00:03:05.18
basically three types of
nerves. We have the motor
00:03:05.21\00:03:09.14
nerves and this deals with
muscle weakness and cramps.
00:03:09.17\00:03:13.36
For people who may have
weakness in their muscles,
00:03:13.39\00:03:16.88
their legs, whatever,
then that's due to because
00:03:16.91\00:03:19.39
of the motor nerve are damaged,
00:03:19.42\00:03:21.70
that's one type.
Another type we have is called
00:03:21.73\00:03:24.93
sensory nerve and
those nerves is due to,
00:03:25.18\00:03:28.71
the symptoms are
the numbness, pain,
00:03:28.74\00:03:32.39
or shooting or
burning sensation in the
00:03:33.09\00:03:35.75
fingers and toes.
Sensory nerves and so when
00:03:35.78\00:03:39.49
people have that is
usually because their
00:03:39.52\00:03:41.74
sensory nerves
are damaged, alright
00:03:41.77\00:03:43.58
and then the last group of
nerves is autonomic nerves,
00:03:43.61\00:03:48.68
which is basically
involuntary, such as
00:03:48.71\00:03:51.90
the nerves in our stomach,
we call that gastroparesis,
00:03:51.93\00:03:55.12
the medical term.
And when this happens
00:03:55.15\00:03:57.51
the symptoms are
when we eat food since
00:03:57.54\00:04:00.82
the nerves in our
stomach are damaged because
00:04:00.85\00:04:03.79
of the high glucose,
blood sugar in the blood stream
00:04:03.82\00:04:07.84
it damage the
nerves in our stomach.
00:04:08.03\00:04:10.78
Now, as a result of
that we have bloating,
00:04:10.96\00:04:13.98
we have indigestion,
food simply does not
00:04:14.65\00:04:18.80
digest properly.
Wow, that's a lot of stuff
00:04:18.83\00:04:22.55
going on. Yes, it is,
you know. And we can also
00:04:22.58\00:04:25.27
include foul breath as
well. We do have a picture
00:04:25.30\00:04:28.14
of nerve damage,
neuropathy. Okay.
00:04:28.38\00:04:31.32
So, let's look at
the screen at this time
00:04:31.35\00:04:32.78
and there you have
here, of course this is a
00:04:33.36\00:04:34.97
sensory nerve dealing
with the fingers and toes
00:04:35.00\00:04:37.39
here dealing with
the toes and you see here
00:04:37.42\00:04:40.10
a reduced blood flow at
the top there and then as
00:04:40.13\00:04:43.08
the nerves gets
smaller and the feet, of course
00:04:43.11\00:04:45.72
you have the damaged
nerve and that's due to
00:04:45.75\00:04:47.90
high glucose, high blood
sugar in the blood stream
00:04:47.93\00:04:51.86
and it damaged those
nerves, that's why you
00:04:51.89\00:04:53.94
have the tingling,
the numbness, the burning
00:04:53.97\00:04:57.16
sensation in toes and
also the fingers as well.
00:04:57.19\00:05:00.38
Well, is there any
drugs that can help with this?
00:05:01.56\00:05:05.53
Yeah, there are some
drugs that will help with the
00:05:05.56\00:05:07.77
nerve damage,
probably most well-known drug
00:05:07.80\00:05:10.75
is Lyrica you probably
heard that on television.
00:05:10.78\00:05:13.85
Lyrica is the main drug
of choice for nerve damage
00:05:13.88\00:05:17.85
for those who have
that diabetic nerve damage
00:05:17.88\00:05:19.84
I should say, put it
that way. But, of course,
00:05:19.87\00:05:22.42
now with all drug
medication, of course,
00:05:22.45\00:05:24.93
we have side
effects. I know, I know.
00:05:24.96\00:05:26.93
And so some of the
side effects of that drug
00:05:26.96\00:05:28.74
and of course, this
is well-known on their
00:05:28.77\00:05:31.42
container. A lot of
people have allergic
00:05:31.45\00:05:33.68
reaction to Lyrica. Such as?
00:05:33.71\00:05:36.20
Well, number 1, some
of course like I said
00:05:36.77\00:05:39.44
their allergic reaction
is swelling of the hands,
00:05:39.47\00:05:43.58
the face, that's
quite common with Lyrica,
00:05:43.85\00:05:48.00
also dizziness, a lot
of people experience that,
00:05:48.30\00:05:51.64
not everybody, but
some people, sleepiness,
00:05:51.86\00:05:55.04
that's another
side effect of Lyrica.
00:05:55.07\00:05:56.98
Now, that's the good
news. The other thing is that
00:05:57.23\00:06:00.87
you also experience
some people blurred vision,
00:06:00.90\00:06:04.76
weight gain,
increase of depression
00:06:05.79\00:06:09.85
and suicidal thoughts.
So because of these baleful
00:06:10.81\00:06:16.03
side effects or then
with this nerve damage,
00:06:16.06\00:06:18.37
just as of late, which
is somewhat of a surprise,
00:06:18.56\00:06:21.82
the American
Diabetes Association had just
00:06:21.85\00:06:24.63
published a book on
herbs and supplementation
00:06:24.66\00:06:28.44
for the diabetic.
The American Diabetes
00:06:28.69\00:06:31.02
Association which is
quite worried because
00:06:31.05\00:06:33.00
they don't really get into herbs
00:06:33.03\00:06:34.44
That's true, that's true.
00:06:34.47\00:06:35.84
So, partially because of
these baleful side effects
00:06:35.87\00:06:37.24
they see it necessary
to go ahead and publish
00:06:37.47\00:06:39.93
a book on that and
it kind of brief through
00:06:39.96\00:06:42.19
some of that and the
least they are going in a
00:06:42.22\00:06:45.37
good direction. Because
a lot of people have taken
00:06:45.40\00:06:47.28
these supplementations
and herbal medicines any way,
00:06:47.31\00:06:49.82
so they said we might
as go ahead and publish
00:06:49.93\00:06:51.90
a book concerning that as well.
00:06:51.93\00:06:53.30
But you can see,
you can understand
00:06:53.33\00:06:54.70
why they published
that type of book because
00:06:54.73\00:06:56.97
a lot of people are
moving in that direction because
00:06:57.00\00:06:58.73
of side effects. Absolutely,
absolutely, absolutely,
00:06:58.76\00:07:00.24
a lot of times, we
know what's going on now.
00:07:00.27\00:07:01.64
As people were
going to their doctors,
00:07:01.67\00:07:03.04
that's right, and trying
to find out what's going on.
00:07:03.07\00:07:04.92
You know, all the
commercials out now,
00:07:04.95\00:07:06.32
it scares you half
to death. You know,
00:07:06.35\00:07:08.18
once a day a new
drug comes in the market
00:07:08.21\00:07:10.58
then it began to
show the side effects,
00:07:10.61\00:07:12.96
sometimes it goes long
and long and long and long.
00:07:12.99\00:07:15.57
And it's scary, it's
scary. And a lot of people
00:07:15.60\00:07:19.89
wind up taking other
drugs, right, to remedy the
00:07:20.33\00:07:23.05
side effects of another
drug and so the list gets
00:07:23.08\00:07:26.23
longer and longer.
Any natural were always
00:07:26.26\00:07:29.21
available then. Yeah,
there are some natural things
00:07:29.24\00:07:32.51
that a person can do
that's been clinically
00:07:32.54\00:07:35.04
proven to be very
effective and, of course,
00:07:35.07\00:07:38.52
in your workbook we
have a whole list of clinical
00:07:38.55\00:07:40.90
studies as far as
this natural product
00:07:40.93\00:07:43.59
is concerned, in relationship
to lessening the damage
00:07:43.62\00:07:47.97
of our nerve due to a
high glucose in blood stream.
00:07:48.00\00:07:50.61
And so with this in
mind and this is a product
00:07:50.92\00:07:53.54
that naturally is
produced by the body,
00:07:54.18\00:07:57.61
by bioflavonoid.
Let's go to the screen,
00:07:57.77\00:07:59.75
lets look at this
product at this time,
00:07:59.78\00:08:01.23
it's called "Alpha Lipoic
Acid" again it's naturally
00:08:02.16\00:08:06.72
produced from the
body. Wow! Total symptom
00:08:06.75\00:08:09.90
score including
the pain, burning
00:08:09.93\00:08:14.45
and numbness in feet
decreased significantly
00:08:14.78\00:08:18.81
from baseline today 19.
This is what the medical
00:08:19.07\00:08:24.17
journal called
diabetes, in another words
00:08:24.20\00:08:25.94
interpretation of
that is where a person has
00:08:25.97\00:08:29.77
let's say the sensory
nerves, fingers and toes.
00:08:29.80\00:08:33.09
They have their
burning, they have their pain,
00:08:33.12\00:08:35.73
they have their
numbness, Alpha Lipoic acid.
00:08:36.24\00:08:39.83
Get it at any health
food store based on that study
00:08:40.01\00:08:43.55
it was 800 milligrams
per day and over a course
00:08:43.58\00:08:48.29
of less than 3 weeks,
19 days for a significant
00:08:48.32\00:08:51.68
decrease in the pain,
the burning and the numbness,
00:08:51.71\00:08:55.57
so it eases the symptoms
of nerve damage neuropathy,
00:08:56.14\00:09:00.30
Alpha Lipoic acid. And
first thing without any other
00:09:00.33\00:09:05.00
baleful side effects
that the other drug can give.
00:09:05.03\00:09:08.79
So, a lot of people are
now moving in that direction
00:09:08.82\00:09:10.92
and therefore, they can
see a better improvement
00:09:10.95\00:09:13.11
on their overall life.
What about diabetic drugs?
00:09:13.14\00:09:16.18
Well, again same
as the other drugs for
00:09:16.73\00:09:20.20
nerve damage, of
course, diabetic drugs also have
00:09:20.23\00:09:23.50
their list of side effects
as well, probably the most
00:09:23.53\00:09:26.51
well-known been in
the paper and in news
00:09:26.54\00:09:29.44
as of late is Avandia. Oh! Yeah.
00:09:29.47\00:09:31.56
You've heard that,
yes, yes, yes, Avandia
00:09:31.59\00:09:33.17
and what they've done is
they collected 42 clinical
00:09:33.20\00:09:38.47
studies, we call this
meta-analysis. We look
00:09:38.50\00:09:41.15
at 42 studies, put them
all together and analyze
00:09:41.18\00:09:45.33
all 42 studies on
this drug Avandia, okay,
00:09:45.36\00:09:48.88
and they discovered
that this drug also causes
00:09:48.91\00:09:51.70
dizziness and
drowsiness. But also discovered
00:09:51.73\00:09:56.10
that a group of lot
of clinical studies done
00:09:56.13\00:09:59.48
on this, a group
of individuals took
00:09:59.51\00:10:01.11
this drug. They
realize that over 50 percent
00:10:01.14\00:10:04.26
of the people
had a heart attack.
00:10:04.29\00:10:06.40
On this drug
Avandia for diabetes.
00:10:06.90\00:10:09.30
And some 63 percent
of the people die from a
00:10:10.15\00:10:15.29
cardiovascular event
either a heart attack
00:10:15.32\00:10:17.83
or a stroke by taking
this drug Avandia for diabetes.
00:10:17.86\00:10:22.91
And because of that
of course there's a lot
00:10:23.39\00:10:25.20
of litigations, law
suits, hundreds of them because
00:10:25.23\00:10:28.98
of this as well, so Food
and Drug Administration simply
00:10:29.01\00:10:31.86
had to pull this off
the shelf, because of the
00:10:31.89\00:10:33.55
baleful side
effects of this drug.
00:10:33.58\00:10:35.15
There are other drugs
out there as well who may
00:10:35.40\00:10:37.06
not give that
drastic baleful side effect
00:10:37.09\00:10:39.91
but that's just one drug
that the people are using,
00:10:39.94\00:10:43.86
they were using at
that time and they realized
00:10:44.36\00:10:46.97
that its just not doing
the job that most people
00:10:47.00\00:10:50.10
want them to do,
want the drug to do.
00:10:50.13\00:10:51.85
Well, you know, its one
thing to have a debilitating
00:10:52.44\00:10:54.82
disease and then
another thing to get some type
00:10:54.85\00:10:57.83
of a drug that's supposed
to help control or cure.
00:10:57.86\00:11:02.11
But then to have extra
side effects to go along
00:11:02.72\00:11:05.51
with that as well.
So, I know that someone
00:11:05.54\00:11:07.27
is asking a
question, is there any herbal
00:11:07.30\00:11:10.14
or supplementation
that an individual can began
00:11:11.01\00:11:13.69
to take or take that
can help to keep from
00:11:13.72\00:11:16.25
having these
types of side effects.
00:11:16.28\00:11:17.91
Yes, and absolutely
there are so many herbs,
00:11:17.94\00:11:22.64
botanical medicine in
the plant kingdom that can
00:11:23.32\00:11:27.66
lessen the glucose in
the blood stream and bring
00:11:27.69\00:11:31.33
into us normalcy.
Many herbs that can do that
00:11:31.36\00:11:33.81
and you have
cinnamon, you have Fenugreek,
00:11:34.27\00:11:37.86
you have Golden
Seal, you have garlic,
00:11:38.15\00:11:39.58
you have onions,
bitter melon, I mean the list
00:11:39.61\00:11:41.75
goes on and on.
However, there is one botanical,
00:11:41.78\00:11:46.16
one herb, head and
shoulders above all other
00:11:46.91\00:11:51.58
herbs that can
actually does a remarkable thing
00:11:51.61\00:11:56.21
as far as diabetes is concerned.
00:11:56.24\00:11:58.34
Let's go to the
screen at this time because
00:11:58.62\00:12:00.55
this is really a
remarkable statement.
00:12:00.58\00:12:02.75
New Birth! The
botanical, the herb,
00:12:03.41\00:12:07.52
Gymnema Sylvestre,
this is a leaf extract,
00:12:08.12\00:12:12.31
significantly increases
the regeneration of beta-cells,
00:12:12.34\00:12:20.05
and this is found in
a medical journal called
00:12:21.51\00:12:23.45
Phytomedicine.
Phyto meaning plant,
00:12:23.48\00:12:26.63
plant medicine. And
the reason why this works
00:12:26.66\00:12:29.72
so well because we
talked about this in a previous
00:12:29.75\00:12:31.89
program, chromium
enhances the accessibility
00:12:31.92\00:12:37.32
of insulin, okay,
chromium, the trace
00:12:37.35\00:12:40.31
mineral that we
talked about that we can get
00:12:40.34\00:12:42.11
in broccoli and also
whole grain products,
00:12:42.14\00:12:45.25
alright, the breads,
buns, that kind of thing.
00:12:45.28\00:12:46.99
So, with that in mind of
all the herbs in the herbal
00:12:47.37\00:12:52.29
kingdom, Gymnema
Sylvestre has one of the
00:12:52.32\00:12:55.74
highest contents of
chromium. Wow! Okay.
00:12:55.77\00:12:59.76
That's why you know
that Gymnema Sylvestre
00:12:59.79\00:13:01.87
works very well
and based on good sound
00:13:01.90\00:13:05.19
clinical studies.
We are looking about
00:13:05.22\00:13:06.59
400 milligrams per day
and so in time when a person
00:13:06.62\00:13:10.45
does that and uses
this particular botanical
00:13:10.48\00:13:13.34
we always emphasize
if you're using any type
00:13:13.71\00:13:15.92
of supplementation, any
type of botanical medicine,
00:13:15.95\00:13:19.31
always make sure that
your health care professional
00:13:19.73\00:13:22.31
be aware that you are
using some other type of
00:13:22.34\00:13:25.15
products other than the
drug that was prescribed
00:13:25.62\00:13:28.16
for you, that way
they can monitor you.
00:13:28.19\00:13:30.33
You can monitor yourself
and they're able to make
00:13:30.36\00:13:32.55
some necessary adjustments
to your medication because
00:13:32.58\00:13:35.24
once this herb begins to
regenerate the beta-cells
00:13:35.27\00:13:38.58
and again this is very
important, beta-cells are
00:13:38.61\00:13:41.97
the only cell in a
pancreas that produce insulin,
00:13:42.00\00:13:44.96
the beta-cells. Okay.
Therefore, once they are
00:13:45.30\00:13:48.49
regenerated give the
beta-cells new birth then
00:13:48.52\00:13:52.00
the insulin is now being
produced more and need less
00:13:52.03\00:13:55.39
of the medication or less
of the insulin even for those
00:13:55.42\00:13:58.09
who are taking 20 to
30 units. So, this is part
00:13:58.12\00:14:00.87
of a total protocol, a
total package as far as
00:14:00.90\00:14:04.46
normalizing those glucose
levels, Gymnema Sylvestre
00:14:04.49\00:14:07.18
and this is purchased
at any health food store.
00:14:07.21\00:14:09.67
Now, I know, now
you've done this before,
00:14:10.61\00:14:13.39
where you've talked
about a disease and we have
00:14:13.63\00:14:15.85
talked about a
medication or a drug they might
00:14:15.88\00:14:18.29
be taking, then
someone asked a question about
00:14:18.32\00:14:20.67
what can I do from
a natural standpoint
00:14:20.70\00:14:22.44
and you do that.
Then we always have people
00:14:22.47\00:14:24.79
in the audience, in our
community, in our church
00:14:24.82\00:14:27.25
that will say things like
can I take Gymnema Sylvestre
00:14:27.28\00:14:30.11
and I don't have,
oh yeah, diabetes.
00:14:30.14\00:14:31.59
Yes. The answer is no. You know,
00:14:31.62\00:14:33.41
if it's not broke
don't be trying to fix it.
00:14:33.44\00:14:35.86
You know what I'm
saying. That's true, absolutely.
00:14:35.89\00:14:37.26
So you don't need
to go out and take
00:14:37.29\00:14:38.66
Gymnema Sylvestre,
you know, as a precursor
00:14:38.69\00:14:41.14
or we say
precursor because we think
00:14:41.17\00:14:43.73
we might, but
basically you're talking now if
00:14:43.76\00:14:46.35
that drug, if the drug
is being offered to you
00:14:46.38\00:14:48.40
to consider Gymnema
Sylvestre, right, along with
00:14:48.88\00:14:51.92
your medication, right,
now that's a good point,
00:14:51.95\00:14:53.32
checking with your
physician, letting him know
00:14:53.35\00:14:54.99
what's going on and then
you going to see the drop.
00:14:55.02\00:14:57.43
Now remember now, it's
not, we've been talking
00:14:57.46\00:14:59.39
also about exercise,
talking about food. We are now
00:14:59.42\00:15:01.76
on botanical medicine
and those of you who miss
00:15:01.79\00:15:03.34
the food and the
exercise you have to go back
00:15:03.37\00:15:06.02
and get the work book
on that, but that's very,
00:15:06.05\00:15:08.11
very important to
know we don't need to
00:15:08.14\00:15:10.32
take it, if there
is nothing going on.
00:15:10.35\00:15:11.86
Yeah, an excellent
point because this is not a
00:15:11.89\00:15:14.38
magic bullet, no, a lot of
people will take that herb,
00:15:14.41\00:15:17.50
that botanical and do
nothing else, this is part
00:15:17.92\00:15:21.21
of a complete package.
Yes, yes. We talked earlier,
00:15:21.24\00:15:24.20
also on exercise
about sunshine, you know,
00:15:24.23\00:15:26.75
getting out there
and walking. Okay.
00:15:26.78\00:15:28.15
So what role does
sunshine play as far as
00:15:28.18\00:15:30.60
this is concerned,
as far as diabetes.
00:15:30.63\00:15:32.14
Well, it plays a very
critical and now this is
00:15:32.17\00:15:34.56
something that
anybody can do without cost,
00:15:34.59\00:15:37.36
without price. When
sunlight strikes the skin
00:15:37.39\00:15:43.59
it moves the glucose in
the skin into our muscles
00:15:44.19\00:15:48.60
and liver
automatically. And we need about
00:15:48.95\00:15:53.23
may be 10 to 15
minutes of sunlight exposure.
00:15:53.26\00:15:56.08
Now, make sure the
skin is dry and clean
00:15:56.11\00:15:58.61
and more skin exposed
to more sunlight probably
00:15:58.84\00:16:02.12
you should get with
that as well. And of course,
00:16:02.15\00:16:04.68
you know, you
want to expose the skin
00:16:05.91\00:16:07.95
but of course you want to
be decent at the same time
00:16:08.23\00:16:10.41
as well, but again
sunlight will move the glucose
00:16:10.44\00:16:13.76
out of the skin, out of
the blood stream and move it
00:16:14.10\00:16:16.80
into our muscles,
stores it or into our liver
00:16:16.83\00:16:21.54
and stores it.
Sunlight does it automatically
00:16:21.86\00:16:24.56
and it lasts for several
hours, so sunlight is very
00:16:24.59\00:16:27.32
good for that, so
we're giving a lot of people,
00:16:27.35\00:16:29.40
a lot of information
honey, lots of information,
00:16:29.43\00:16:31.04
about sunlight
treatment, yes, also botanical
00:16:31.07\00:16:33.81
medicine,
herbs, supplementations
00:16:33.84\00:16:37.26
for nerve pain, neuropathy,
we talk about carbohydrates,
00:16:37.29\00:16:41.69
the right carbs and so
positive thinking and lot
00:16:41.72\00:16:44.54
more is in our workbooks,
so hopefully these lifestyle
00:16:44.57\00:16:47.98
adjustments can be enhanced and
00:16:48.72\00:16:50.74
improve someone's
overall well being.
00:16:50.77\00:16:52.72
And along with all
that we also threw in,
00:16:53.34\00:16:56.27
or put or added in
the part of the nutrition
00:16:57.13\00:17:01.36
as far as the recipes
are concerned. That's right.
00:17:01.39\00:17:03.26
So you get a chance to
also have the recipes that
00:17:03.29\00:17:05.75
match up with the
different shows as well.
00:17:05.78\00:17:07.36
Absolutely. Well, today
is also one of those days
00:17:07.39\00:17:10.76
we are actually going to
be doing a chicken salad,
00:17:10.79\00:17:13.16
that's a mock chicken
salad. It is fantastic,
00:17:13.19\00:17:16.27
tastes good, looks
good and so we want
00:17:16.30\00:17:18.09

Well, welcome

00:18:04.54\00:18:05.91
A lot of information
there Yes, lots of information,
00:18:05.94\00:18:07.84
very excited about this recipe
itself and so let's look at the
00:18:07.87\00:18:11.67
ingredients for this
particular recipe. Okay.
00:18:11.71\00:18:15.12
Now, I like this
particular recipe and I can do
00:18:39.27\00:18:44.42
it two ways; one into
either a mock egg salad
00:18:44.46\00:18:49.58
and then a mock chicken
because we've been talking
00:18:49.95\00:18:51.71
a lot about getting
rid of all the cholesterol
00:18:51.74\00:18:54.43
in a diet especially
when we talked about some
00:18:54.46\00:18:56.59
shows back. We spoke
about the fact of too much
00:18:56.62\00:18:59.52
fat in a diet actually
coats the cell and when it goes
00:18:59.55\00:19:02.84
to cell, it's impedes
the ability for the insulin
00:19:02.87\00:19:06.74
to get to the cell
and take the sugar,
00:19:06.77\00:19:09.44
the glucose inside. That's true.
00:19:09.47\00:19:11.18
And so a lot of time
we talked about the fact
00:19:11.21\00:19:13.06
that used the word
sugar diabetes does not mean
00:19:13.09\00:19:16.57
a lot of sugar. It
just means there is sugar
00:19:16.60\00:19:19.23
present in the blood.
So, it's not the cause
00:19:19.26\00:19:21.79
and we covered that as
well. But then remember,
00:19:21.82\00:19:23.76
remember, remember,
somebody saw that show
00:19:23.79\00:19:25.78
and said, okay, she
said it was okay for me to
00:19:25.81\00:19:27.78
have my sugar and
don't worry about the fat.
00:19:27.91\00:19:30.40
Because sugar
doesn't cause diabetes,
00:19:30.43\00:19:31.96
so I can have my
cookies, cakes and pies.
00:19:31.99\00:19:33.68
Yeah, but really and
truly what's happening
00:19:33.71\00:19:35.30
is the processed foods
we talked about that also,
00:19:35.33\00:19:38.15
the process food is
where that extra amount of fat
00:19:38.18\00:19:40.21
and those sugars are
there which causes the problem
00:19:40.24\00:19:42.44
for the diabetic and you
know it causes a problems
00:19:42.47\00:19:44.07
of everybody but for a
diabetic in particular,
00:19:44.10\00:19:46.57
okay, now. Now, these
foods here now this can be
00:19:46.60\00:19:50.01
either a chicken salad
or a eggless salad. Yes.
00:19:50.04\00:19:53.15
It is based on a textured
tofu itself. It depends on
00:19:53.18\00:19:55.50
and also, yeah, not only
the texture but the type.
00:19:55.53\00:19:58.71
Okay. Your firm, extra
firm, they do a different thing
00:19:58.98\00:20:01.94
then your softs
and your medium firm,
00:20:01.97\00:20:04.05
so the different
textures of the tofu
00:20:04.08\00:20:05.56
we talked about other
also in our books as well.
00:20:05.59\00:20:07.93
Now, so again. So, the
extra firm will be more
00:20:08.11\00:20:10.99
of a chicken type
texture because it's more.
00:20:11.02\00:20:13.01
Whole-firm, firm. A
firm, okay, we start with more
00:20:13.04\00:20:16.05
of egg type of
texture. Yes. Okay, but now
00:20:16.08\00:20:18.78
how do you get it to be
if you are try and make into
00:20:18.81\00:20:21.80
those textures.
What we do, Curtis?
00:20:21.83\00:20:23.43
What to do is this is very
critical here at this stage,
00:20:23.46\00:20:26.47
this process. If you
get your water, if you get
00:20:26.50\00:20:30.64
a tofu in a water
pack, I know why my wife
00:20:30.67\00:20:33.77
is laughing at this
time. But if you get your tofu
00:20:33.80\00:20:35.68
in a water pack you
want to put it in the freezer
00:20:35.71\00:20:38.23
whole, keep it
there for at least 2 days
00:20:38.80\00:20:41.59
and take it out, you
thaw it out and then you press
00:20:41.85\00:20:44.97
it against two paper
cloth towels, press it so that
00:20:45.00\00:20:48.73
all the water is out
and then you crumble it up
00:20:48.76\00:20:51.53
and you have a meat type
texture, is that correct?
00:20:51.56\00:20:55.55
Alright, alright, alright,
alright, so you are about
00:20:55.58\00:20:57.52
ready to have your
own show. You're ready
00:20:57.55\00:20:59.25
to be own chef. You
know what I'm saying.
00:20:59.28\00:21:01.46
But, I mean can you
fill it in the blanks
00:21:01.49\00:21:03.32
or was that sufficient
or what? You did a good job.
00:21:03.35\00:21:05.26
You did good. I know Anne
out there is saying. What?
00:21:05.29\00:21:07.65
It wasn't that smooth,
but I hope we got the idea,
00:21:09.99\00:21:12.22
but again, yeah, so but
that can be done because
00:21:12.25\00:21:15.59
if it's firm or extra
firm is more of a meaty type
00:21:15.62\00:21:18.92
texture. If it's soft,
it's more of a egg type texture.
00:21:18.95\00:21:21.72
Right, right. So,
what we're gonna do in this
00:21:21.75\00:21:23.77
particular one here as
you know I talked about
00:21:23.80\00:21:25.54
the celery, I already
started dicing some of
00:21:25.57\00:21:27.34
the celery up, so let's
go ahead and dice the rest
00:21:27.37\00:21:29.28
of that, okay, and
then I also talked about
00:21:29.31\00:21:31.26
the scallion. I gonna
go ahead and dice that
00:21:31.29\00:21:33.41
up as well. We've
already started dicing it up
00:21:33.44\00:21:35.62
and you're jut gonna
dice up in a nice size pieces.
00:21:35.65\00:21:38.09
It goes really,
really well, yes it does,
00:21:42.01\00:21:45.52
in this particular
recipe, okay. I'm gonna start as
00:21:45.55\00:21:49.67
Curtis is finishing that
up. I gonna start mashing up
00:21:49.70\00:21:52.35
the tofu, just with my
fork I am just gonna mash it.
00:21:52.81\00:21:56.27
Now, that's the
firm. Or we called crumble.
00:21:56.30\00:21:58.57
That firm, okay. Or you
can use firm or extra firm.
00:21:58.60\00:22:00.83
Either one can
work on this one, okay.
00:22:00.86\00:22:02.77
A lot of people, you
know, may not have worked
00:22:03.08\00:22:05.85
with tofu. Don't
know how to use this so.
00:22:05.88\00:22:08.11
This is one of the
way of getting the tofu,
00:22:08.85\00:22:10.39
the soy based
products in the system, yes,
00:22:10.42\00:22:13.20
has plant protein,
not animal proteins so it
00:22:13.65\00:22:16.14
does not stress out the
kidneys or does not raise
00:22:16.17\00:22:18.57
the blood pressure, and
it has also the calcium,
00:22:18.60\00:22:21.68
and this is type of
fat that the body needs,
00:22:22.55\00:22:25.29
the good type of fats.
And better equalization
00:22:25.32\00:22:28.10
of calcium then
actually have now.
00:22:28.13\00:22:29.93
That's true. The
calcium, that's true.
00:22:29.96\00:22:31.33
The soy family has
that ability and I am gonna
00:22:31.76\00:22:35.12
go ahead on and ask
you to go ahead and put in.
00:22:35.15\00:22:36.80
let's go ahead and start
that celery in here first.
00:22:36.83\00:22:38.76
Move the celery in
and we got that one there
00:22:38.80\00:22:42.30
also as well, okay, okay,
I also like this one because
00:22:42.33\00:22:45.71
it's very colorful,
alright, go ahead and put in,
00:22:45.74\00:22:48.73
get all the
goodies, all the goodies.
00:22:48.76\00:22:50.62
All the goodies
baby. Yeah. Okay. Okay,
00:22:50.65\00:22:52.43
and then let's go ahead
on and do also the scallions
00:22:52.46\00:22:56.24
as well, okay.
Scallions and onion are the same
00:22:56.27\00:22:59.79
thing. But are in same
family. In the same family,
00:22:59.82\00:23:01.95
yes, okay. Okay. Put
that in also. Alright. Now,
00:23:01.98\00:23:08.85
I also talked about
a soy mayonnaise, okay,
00:23:08.88\00:23:12.48
we're gonna do a soy
mayonnaise rather than a
00:23:13.40\00:23:15.90
regular mayonnaise or salad
dressing because once again
00:23:15.93\00:23:19.11
we are limiting the
amount of eggs and anything else
00:23:19.14\00:23:22.23
that might be
in that mayonnaise.
00:23:22.26\00:23:23.63
So, we're gonna
actually use a soy mayonnaise
00:23:23.66\00:23:25.03
in place of it, but
before I do that Curtis.
00:23:25.06\00:23:26.50
I would like for you
to actually squeeze the
00:23:26.53\00:23:28.90
lemon, so we have
lemon juice in this as well.
00:23:28.93\00:23:30.85
Okay, where is my
squeezer. What did you do
00:23:30.88\00:23:33.34
with it last Curtis?
Okay, you're just blasting me.
00:23:33.37\00:23:36.89
Okay, I'm just going
to squeeze it right here.
00:23:40.36\00:23:43.19
You put it
somewhere. This is going be hard
00:23:43.22\00:23:46.10
right here, boy I
tell you. You can do it,
00:23:46.13\00:23:48.09
you can do it. Yeah,
lifting weighs really.
00:23:48.12\00:23:51.27
Look at that. Really
help out right now, Yes,
00:23:51.30\00:23:53.28
it does. Yes, it does.
This is a nice size firm
00:23:53.31\00:23:56.32
one too. Okay, now you
want seeds in this or what.
00:23:56.35\00:24:00.07
No, I don't think I
want any seeds in it Curtis,
00:24:00.78\00:24:02.93
okay, if you see any
seeds in it, I would like to,
00:24:02.96\00:24:04.49
well, you did good,
only one seed is there.
00:24:04.52\00:24:06.34
Yeah, only one. Just
one. Let me get this out.
00:24:06.37\00:24:08.28
Okay. Okay. Now, let's
do this. I want to take
00:24:09.06\00:24:11.58
this bowl. This one
out and I'm gonna have you.
00:24:11.61\00:24:14.10
We're gonna go ahead
and make this mixture up,
00:24:14.61\00:24:16.28
alright. Okay. So
we're gonna go ahead
00:24:16.31\00:24:17.68
and take our spatula.
Let's go ahead and put
00:24:17.71\00:24:19.60
the mayonnaise,
soy mayonnaise in here.
00:24:19.63\00:24:21.75
Here you go. Oh! Okay.
In there. And then I'm gonna
00:24:21.99\00:24:24.56
go ahead and also
put in the soy sauces,
00:24:24.59\00:24:27.80
soy sauce lite or you can
use Braggs, liquid aminos,
00:24:27.83\00:24:31.37
either one of those can
be the type of ingredient
00:24:31.91\00:24:36.54
you can put into
this, so I'm gonna go ahead
00:24:36.57\00:24:37.94
and pour it in.
Curtis go ahead, we're gonna
00:24:37.97\00:24:39.34
put it in now the
onion powder. Powder,
00:24:39.37\00:24:42.62
okay in here. And
we're gonna go ahead
00:24:42.65\00:24:44.79
and put in the turmeric
for coloring. For coloring,
00:24:44.82\00:24:47.60
yes. And let's go ahead
and put in the lemon juice
00:24:47.63\00:24:49.39
in there as well. Alright.
Alright and with your fork
00:24:49.42\00:24:52.09
you're gonna go
ahead and spin that around
00:24:52.12\00:24:53.49
a little bit. Spin
it round with the fork.
00:24:53.52\00:24:55.94
Yeah, you now, just
kind of turn it around.
00:24:56.37\00:24:58.46
Turn it. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:24:58.49\00:25:00.14
Do you want me to
fold it? No, I don't you
00:25:00.17\00:25:01.93
to fold it, just go
ahead and just go ahead,
00:25:01.96\00:25:04.29
spin it, spin it,
spin it, spin it. Oh! Okay,
00:25:04.32\00:25:07.05

salad, 'cause all your
00:25:07.08\00:25:08.87
seasonings' going to be
in here, okay, it's going
00:25:08.90\00:25:11.20

Okay, you do that and
this gets the coloring.
00:25:21.59\00:25:25.86
Because it has to
look like that right now,
00:25:28.08\00:25:29.47
it's not, it's not as
appetizing or as pretty
00:25:29.50\00:25:32.38
as it's going to be,
once we mix this all together.
00:25:32.41\00:25:34.09
