High calorie dense
foods, high salty foods,
00:00:01.98\00:00:04.99
high sugar foods,
sugary snacks everywhere,
00:00:05.31\00:00:09.39
shopping malls, gas stations,
00:00:09.42\00:00:11.23
fast food restaurants
that open later and later
00:00:11.64\00:00:14.41
for your convenience,
no money, no problem
00:00:14.44\00:00:18.03
they now take credit cards.
We simply live in a culture,
00:00:18.06\00:00:21.67
which advised today's
topic entitled snack attacks,
00:00:21.70\00:00:25.42
we'll be right back.
00:00:25.45\00:00:26.82
Hi, welcome to Abundant Living,
00:00:57.86\00:00:59.41
this is Curtis Eakins, I
am glad you are with us today,
00:00:59.44\00:01:02.09
I would like to
introduce my beautiful bride of
00:01:02.12\00:01:05.03
13 glorious
wonderful years Paula Eakins,
00:01:05.06\00:01:08.33
how are you doing
honey? I am doing wonderful.
00:01:08.36\00:01:10.04
You're looking mighty good too.
00:01:10.07\00:01:11.44
Thank you. Praise
the Lord! Snack attacks.
00:01:11.47\00:01:14.89
Snack attacks, this is
the culture we live in honey
00:01:14.92\00:01:17.78
I mean everywhere, every
time we turn on the radio
00:01:17.81\00:01:20.55
or television, bill
boards and magazines and
00:01:20.58\00:01:23.26
all these foods, it lures us to
00:01:23.29\00:01:25.75
increase our snack attacks.
00:01:25.78\00:01:28.42
And I think the
thing that blows my mind is
00:01:29.05\00:01:30.90
that I have seen
what you are seeing
00:01:30.93\00:01:32.68
at the super markets now.
00:01:32.71\00:01:34.40
Yes. The credit
cards and not only that,
00:01:34.43\00:01:37.12
not only using the
credit cards to actually buy
00:01:37.15\00:01:39.61
the food, but also at
some of the fast food places
00:01:39.64\00:01:43.22
they have their own card,
which you can actually use
00:01:43.25\00:01:46.08
and that is getting us
into more and more trouble.
00:01:46.52\00:01:49.92
You know now this is of
course is a running series
00:01:49.95\00:01:52.02
of the Winning Weigh
series and this is one of
00:01:52.05\00:01:54.57
the programs on that
serious, the snack attacks.
00:01:54.60\00:01:57.31
I remember I use to work
with a coworker of mine at
00:01:57.34\00:01:59.98
the Huntsville
hospital years ago
00:02:00.01\00:02:01.56
and she said to
me she said Curtis,
00:02:01.59\00:02:04.66
the only exercise I do
is when we get off from
00:02:04.69\00:02:08.24
the hospital she drive up
to the fast food restaurant,
00:02:08.27\00:02:12.06
she take her
finger, hit the button
00:02:12.53\00:02:16.09
and the window will come
down and the only exercise
00:02:16.12\00:02:18.82
she does is she held
out her hand to get the food
00:02:18.85\00:02:22.82
and then bring it back,
that was it for the rest of
00:02:23.36\00:02:25.99
the day alright, and
so it makes it convenient.
00:02:26.02\00:02:29.22
Yeah. They open later
and later and credit cards
00:02:29.56\00:02:32.82
of course and all these
advertising ads and usually
00:02:32.85\00:02:36.17
these ads are to be
advertised not so much
00:02:36.20\00:02:38.37
for vegetables and
fruit, but the high sugar,
00:02:38.40\00:02:42.74
high fat, high salty type foods,
00:02:43.73\00:02:48.72
the snack
attacks. So we are in this
00:02:48.75\00:02:51.37
type of culture
now, so part of this
00:02:51.40\00:02:54.31
the winning ways
series, we are not going to just
00:02:54.34\00:02:56.21
emphasize how we can
shrink those fat cells that
00:02:56.24\00:02:58.52
we talked about last
time, but also there is a
00:02:58.55\00:03:01.11
spiritual
warfare going on as well,
00:03:01.14\00:03:03.16
so we are going
to emphasize that in
00:03:03.19\00:03:04.56
this program amongst
some other things as well.
00:03:04.59\00:03:06.60
Well, lets talk about that,
let's start off with the Bible
00:03:06.63\00:03:08.83
and what type of
scriptures we are looking at
00:03:09.26\00:03:11.40
that might help us
as we look through this
00:03:11.43\00:03:13.97
whole area of snack attacks.
Okay, and again you know
00:03:14.00\00:03:16.99
we had different
addictions, we have a program
00:03:17.02\00:03:19.17
some years ago
called food addictions,
00:03:19.70\00:03:21.47
you know people are addicted
to cigarettes and drugs,
00:03:21.50\00:03:23.64
but you know when you
think about food addiction
00:03:23.67\00:03:25.74
and these are more than
just desires or cravings,
00:03:26.28\00:03:29.67
people are
sometimes addicted to food.
00:03:29.70\00:03:32.18
Absolutely. Now, this is
also true in Biblical days,
00:03:32.21\00:03:37.43
so lets go back to
God's word and lets turn to
00:03:37.72\00:03:40.35
your Bibles if you have it,
if not just jot the text down,
00:03:40.38\00:03:44.04
I am reading from
Deuteronomy chapter 21
00:03:44.18\00:03:47.72
and I'm going to
start at verse 20,
00:03:48.30\00:03:50.59
Deuteronomy
chapter 21 and verse 20,
00:03:50.62\00:03:52.85
"and they shall say
unto the elders of his city"
00:03:53.20\00:03:55.24
now this is a
mother and a father,
00:03:55.27\00:03:57.41
they have a son,
they got some problems
00:03:58.27\00:04:00.86
with their son, so we
pick up this story of verse 20.
00:04:00.89\00:04:03.86
They shall say unto the elders,
00:04:03.89\00:04:05.90
"this is our
son, he is stubborn,
00:04:05.93\00:04:09.55
he is rebellious, he
will not obey our voice
00:04:10.17\00:04:14.03
and he is a glutton."
He is having some problems
00:04:14.55\00:04:21.05
with some snack attacks,
even back in Biblical days
00:04:21.08\00:04:24.27
and again as you read
on in the letter I have for
00:04:24.30\00:04:27.63
that chapter there that
this is a such a severe thing
00:04:27.66\00:04:31.34
that God actually
instructed the parents
00:04:31.37\00:04:34.33
there and Israelites to
actually take that child
00:04:34.36\00:04:37.74
outside of the camp
of Israel and stone him.
00:04:38.63\00:04:42.55
Simply because not
just of snack attacks,
00:04:43.27\00:04:45.17
but also because the child
was also rebellious as well.
00:04:45.20\00:04:47.67
But part of that story
was because of the child
00:04:47.70\00:04:50.96
did not control the appetite.
00:04:50.99\00:04:53.23
So sometimes, a lot of times
00:04:53.26\00:04:54.66
the food sometimes control us
00:04:54.69\00:04:56.79
we need to take
that control back
00:04:57.38\00:04:58.94
and we can control the food.
00:04:58.97\00:05:00.34
So, then in Biblical
days there were some problems
00:05:00.47\00:05:03.85
with people having
snack attacks and again
00:05:03.88\00:05:06.22
we'll go all the way back
to the beginning of this world.
00:05:07.06\00:05:09.88
Appetite with a cause
of our parents first sin,
00:05:10.63\00:05:13.97
and so Esau, you know
coming from the field,
00:05:14.55\00:05:18.47
the Bible says he was very
hungry and of course Jacob,
00:05:19.12\00:05:22.16
he had the
beans, already prepared
00:05:22.19\00:05:24.89
and Esau, he
recognized the birthright,
00:05:24.92\00:05:28.24
he saw the
beans, he chose beans,
00:05:28.88\00:05:31.83
ahead of birthright. You
know the food causes us to
00:05:31.86\00:05:35.66
have some misjudgment
and Satan also understands
00:05:35.69\00:05:39.85
this too, so I think
that's why Satan also
00:05:39.88\00:05:42.08
tempted Jesus with three
temptations in the Bible,
00:05:42.81\00:05:44.92
that's recorded, but
the first of the three
00:05:44.95\00:05:47.50
temptations Jesus
in the wilderness was
00:05:47.53\00:05:50.52
to turn these stones into bread.
00:05:50.55\00:05:53.01
So there is a spiritual
implication when it comes to
00:05:53.04\00:05:56.30
the Winning
Weigh, losing weight,
00:05:56.51\00:05:58.99
we want to emphasize
that Satan also knows that
00:05:59.14\00:06:02.62
this spiritual implications
so far as getting us
00:06:03.02\00:06:06.44
to lose control of our appetite,
00:06:06.47\00:06:09.44
but Bible also tells
us we should also keep
00:06:09.47\00:06:11.60
our bodies under subjection,
00:06:11.63\00:06:14.35
in other words under control,
00:06:14.38\00:06:16.48
so control our appetites
00:06:16.51\00:06:18.53
The only way
that that can happen,
00:06:18.56\00:06:21.52
is that you really have
to talk to the Lord about it.
00:06:21.99\00:06:24.81
Absolutely. You know
I think about the time
00:06:24.84\00:06:26.96
when even a food,
the food at one time
00:06:26.99\00:06:29.81
back in the 50s
and the 60s was small,
00:06:29.84\00:06:32.69
like a muffin
was a couple ounces,
00:06:33.36\00:06:35.68
you know now a muffin is mega.
00:06:36.20\00:06:39.05
So its larger food is
more food and so you are more
00:06:39.64\00:06:43.52
tempted to eat it and
of course like you said
00:06:43.55\00:06:45.92
before it becomes an addiction.
00:06:45.95\00:06:47.50
Yes, it is. It's an
addiction to sweets,
00:06:47.53\00:06:49.16
an addiction to
salt, an addiction to fat
00:06:49.19\00:06:51.14
and so with that in mind
we need to have a spiritual
00:06:51.17\00:06:55.98
talk with the Lord
about trying to get
00:06:56.27\00:06:59.03
ourselves under control.
And I think that's where
00:06:59.06\00:07:01.41
we want to emphasize
honey, right on the mark about
00:07:01.44\00:07:03.53
that, the spiritual
connection as far as
00:07:03.56\00:07:06.04
this weight management
is concerned and what if
00:07:06.07\00:07:08.34
God has some
strong language for those
00:07:08.37\00:07:12.00
who have lost
control of their appetites,
00:07:12.03\00:07:14.99
having these snack attacks.
00:07:15.20\00:07:16.57
So, lets go to
our first graphic,
00:07:16.60\00:07:18.02
lets see the strong
line that God has for us,
00:07:18.05\00:07:20.76
lets read it, "commit suicide
00:07:21.17\00:07:23.50
and put a knife to your throat
00:07:24.29\00:07:28.66
if you are given to gluttony."
00:07:29.16\00:07:32.50
That's very strong
language, now at first,
00:07:33.33\00:07:36.96
value, face value you think
that the Bible is telling us
00:07:37.52\00:07:41.85
to commit
suicide, you know the Bible
00:07:41.88\00:07:44.67
could have said I have
many ways of doing that,
00:07:44.70\00:07:46.27
the Bible could have said
and put a gun to your head.
00:07:46.56\00:07:51.09
Well, that would do
it. Or put a dagger through
00:07:51.45\00:07:54.83
your heart, that would do it,
00:07:54.86\00:07:56.70
but the Bible says
and put a knife where?
00:07:57.02\00:08:00.78
To your throat. To your throat,
00:08:00.81\00:08:02.53
why the throat?
Stay with me on this one,
00:08:03.06\00:08:05.42
that's the only
passage the food passes from
00:08:06.01\00:08:08.57
the mouth to the stomach.
00:08:08.60\00:08:10.72
So what the Bible is
saying is stop the act
00:08:10.75\00:08:13.94
of over eating right
here, where the passage of food
00:08:14.54\00:08:18.42
into us from the
mouth to the stomach,
00:08:18.45\00:08:20.66
so cut out that not
so much to commit suicide
00:08:20.69\00:08:23.90
but Jesus came
that we might have life
00:08:24.10\00:08:26.07
and have it more
abundantly so he is saying that
00:08:26.50\00:08:28.79
getting control and
stop the act right here
00:08:28.82\00:08:31.60
where food passes from
the mouth to the stomach.
00:08:31.63\00:08:34.22
We've become a society
though that are constantly
00:08:34.25\00:08:36.73
eating up, you might
have a meal your breakfast,
00:08:36.76\00:08:39.40
you have your
lunch, you have a supper
00:08:39.43\00:08:40.89
and then in between times
and a lot of people believe
00:08:40.92\00:08:44.35
that are not Curtis actually
eat from out of emotion.
00:08:44.38\00:08:47.64
You know being
stressed out, that's a bad time
00:08:48.44\00:08:50.52
when you're stressed
out. You eat a lot you know,
00:08:50.55\00:08:52.66
so trying to win that control,
00:08:52.69\00:08:55.13
trying to figure out
what is it that causes me
00:08:55.16\00:08:58.07
to eat more and
eat in between meals.
00:08:58.10\00:09:00.59
That snack attack is
actually more than just
00:09:00.62\00:09:02.48
three meals a day,
now we are talking about
00:09:02.51\00:09:04.05
all in between
eating as well, right.
00:09:04.34\00:09:06.23
I think, as we
look at the word of God,
00:09:06.26\00:09:07.96
Ecclesiastes
2:17, the Bible says
00:09:07.99\00:09:10.38
if it pleases eat,
and in due season, yes.
00:09:10.41\00:09:14.85
When it is due.
Well, how do we know
00:09:14.88\00:09:16.51
when it is due? Well,
look at the digestive system,
00:09:16.54\00:09:18.37
it takes about 4 to
5 hours for the food
00:09:18.40\00:09:19.77
to digest our food, so eat
at 8 O'clock in the morning,
00:09:19.80\00:09:22.09
that's breakfast
food, 4-5 hours lunch,
00:09:22.12\00:09:24.82
4-5 hours supper,
4-5 hours go to bed.
00:09:24.85\00:09:29.08
So now, there is one challenge
00:09:29.11\00:09:31.87
we're gonna
have in this program,
00:09:31.90\00:09:33.27
I gonna give out
this challenge right now,
00:09:33.30\00:09:34.84
we are going to repeat it
at the end of this program.
00:09:34.87\00:09:36.45
There is one challenge we want
you to take in for the next,
00:09:36.48\00:09:41.83
for your life time basically.
00:09:42.73\00:09:44.26
This is a challenge
folks and you can help repeat
00:09:44.61\00:09:46.58
this challenge, and also
now we tell people kitchen
00:09:46.61\00:09:50.94
CLOSED at 6, lets
say it one more time,
00:09:51.18\00:09:54.30
I don't think they
were listening honey, again
00:09:54.33\00:09:55.91
Okay. Kitchen CLOSED at
6. Now we had at one time,
00:09:55.94\00:10:01.90
as a matter of
fact a couple of times
00:10:01.93\00:10:03.30
we do our community programs.
00:10:03.33\00:10:04.70
That's right. And we
said that and the people
00:10:04.73\00:10:06.12
just had a fit, they
said, oh my goodness,
00:10:06.15\00:10:08.02
you know. But guess
what well we did a week
00:10:08.05\00:10:10.42
long health program in
a church, in a community
00:10:10.45\00:10:13.42
and we started on a Sabbath,
00:10:13.97\00:10:15.56
we moved through the
week and we gave different
00:10:15.59\00:10:17.68
instructions each
night and when they first
00:10:17.71\00:10:20.09
heard kitchen closes at 6,
like that Saturday evening.
00:10:20.12\00:10:22.33
That's true. And then
so many people said well,
00:10:22.36\00:10:23.79
what about tonight,
you know can I eat tonight,
00:10:23.82\00:10:25.50
we said well go
ahead and eat tonight.
00:10:25.53\00:10:26.90
I am going to
start it on Sunday.
00:10:26.93\00:10:28.30
Okay and you believe
it as we moved through
00:10:28.33\00:10:30.83
the week we were
asked a question each night
00:10:30.86\00:10:32.76
and the people
began to say it works.
00:10:33.30\00:10:35.76
Yes. I can actually get
my food in stop at 6 o' clock
00:10:35.79\00:10:39.69
I feel better in the morning.
Yeah, I think when you do
00:10:40.02\00:10:42.69
that therefore those
fat cells begin to shrink,
00:10:42.72\00:10:46.87
now of course now once
more eloquent audience,
00:10:47.32\00:10:50.99
it's always one in the audience,
00:10:51.02\00:10:52.70
one person said, well
my kitchen is closed at 6
00:10:52.73\00:10:55.05
but the refrigerator in
my bedroom it's open till 12.
00:10:55.52\00:10:59.02
Okay, no, no, no.
No no no no, so that's
00:10:59.05\00:11:01.01
a big room too, the refrigerator
in your bedroom Roy.
00:11:01.04\00:11:03.59
You got to hit it
all. So fridge too closes
00:11:03.62\00:11:05.14
and we do that
because a lot of these snack
00:11:05.17\00:11:07.52
attacks are
usually in the evening.
00:11:07.55\00:11:10.34
And why is that?
Because we nibble sometimes
00:11:10.37\00:11:13.55
we are bored,
sometimes we watch television
00:11:13.58\00:11:15.91
we tend to eat a
bag of potato chips,
00:11:16.18\00:11:17.64
a half a gallon of ice cream
00:11:17.67\00:11:19.04
and sometimes we eat
when we are not hungry
00:11:19.40\00:11:22.12
and we miss queue the
signal because the body
00:11:22.15\00:11:26.04
is simply full,
what we think is hungry
00:11:26.07\00:11:28.74
so we eat and so
those snack attacks usually
00:11:29.13\00:11:31.46
happen in the
evening, so when we close at 6
00:11:31.49\00:11:33.55
that's when the holy
spirit comes in folks.
00:11:33.58\00:11:35.21
Yeah. Ask the holy
spirit to help us and when we do
00:11:35.24\00:11:38.01
that then the weight
will also start to come down,
00:11:38.04\00:11:40.56
kitchen closes at 6.
00:11:40.59\00:11:41.96
What are some of
the problems about
00:11:41.99\00:11:43.36
constant eating, what can
happen as a result of that.
00:11:43.39\00:11:46.05
Well, this one inspired
a lot of that we like to
00:11:46.08\00:11:48.95
quote quite often Ellen
G. White, inspired by God
00:11:48.98\00:11:52.82
that most people, I
believe over 12 million
00:11:54.01\00:11:56.17
people around the world,
the most translated author
00:11:56.20\00:11:58.76
in the United
States, number one woman
00:11:58.79\00:12:01.40
that's translated in the
entire world according to
00:12:01.43\00:12:03.65
library of congress,
she made a statement that
00:12:03.68\00:12:05.84
would go something like this,
00:12:05.87\00:12:07.24
I'm going to paraphrase,
she says that the brain
00:12:07.27\00:12:09.73
is very closely
connected to the stomach
00:12:09.76\00:12:12.01
and so when we
overeat what happens is that
00:12:12.66\00:12:15.88
the brain nerve power,
now she said this in 1800s,
00:12:15.91\00:12:20.82
the brain nerve power
has to help out the stomach
00:12:20.85\00:12:25.41
to digest the food.
Now being in neurosurgery
00:12:25.44\00:12:29.07
I know there are
12 cranial nerves, 12,
00:12:29.10\00:12:32.14
she said that brain nerve power,
00:12:32.41\00:12:35.76
so which one of the 12
cranial nerve is the nerve
00:12:35.79\00:12:39.09
that actually helps the stomach
00:12:39.12\00:12:41.48
to digest the
food? We have discovered
00:12:41.51\00:12:44.45
the name of that nerve,
it's called the Vagus nerve
00:12:44.48\00:12:48.69
that's the only nerve
from the brain to go to
00:12:48.72\00:12:51.91
the stomach to help
digest the food now when that's
00:12:51.94\00:12:54.50
constant because of overeating,
00:12:54.53\00:12:56.59
that brain nerve
power comes from the brain,
00:12:56.62\00:12:59.08
then when we
overeat and stuff ourselves,
00:12:59.56\00:13:02.92
the brain becomes sluggish
and that's why we tend to
00:13:03.29\00:13:05.88
go to sleep and
therefore when that happens,
00:13:07.68\00:13:10.22
an adjustment is impaired.
00:13:10.25\00:13:12.04
So this is a very
close connection between
00:13:12.07\00:13:14.51
the brain and the
stomach and that's one of the
00:13:14.54\00:13:16.90
problems of having
these snack attacks
00:13:16.93\00:13:19.37
and it's usually
in the evening time.
00:13:19.40\00:13:21.64
Vagus nerve. The Vagus nerve,
00:13:22.36\00:13:24.16
it's a big
nerve, we did a carotid
00:13:24.19\00:13:25.82
endarterectomy where we
actually see that nerve,
00:13:25.85\00:13:28.01
that nice sized nerve
that comes from the brain stem
00:13:28.04\00:13:30.42
down to the stomach
Well, I guess the question
00:13:30.45\00:13:33.32
then is what about
calorie dense foods
00:13:33.35\00:13:35.30
because that's
also a major culprit,
00:13:35.33\00:13:37.50
we talk about identify,
when you say calorie dense,
00:13:37.53\00:13:41.12
yes, what type of
foods are we talking about?
00:13:41.15\00:13:42.79
Yeah calorie dense
simply means there is a lady
00:13:42.82\00:13:44.78
named Dr Barbara Rose
she is an nutritionist
00:13:44.81\00:13:49.33
at the university of
Penn State and she does
00:13:49.36\00:13:52.34
some good research
on calorie dense food
00:13:52.37\00:13:55.14
for over 20 years and
she is a author of the book
00:13:55.17\00:13:58.05
called volumetrics,
what kind of dense food
00:13:58.08\00:14:00.83
is simply this, is
the amount of calories
00:14:00.86\00:14:03.71
in a gram of
food. In other words,
00:14:03.74\00:14:06.77
certain foods have high
calories in a small amount
00:14:08.02\00:14:12.12
of weight, we call
that food calorie dense,
00:14:12.15\00:14:16.19
it's very dense in calories,
00:14:16.22\00:14:18.42
let me give you some examples,
00:14:18.45\00:14:19.82
potato chips is a
calorie dense food, you know
00:14:20.88\00:14:24.23
one chip has a lot of
calories yet is light,
00:14:24.26\00:14:27.86
but it's calorie dense,
you know 5.5, mayonnaise
00:14:27.89\00:14:33.12
and butter is a
calorie dense food 7.2,
00:14:33.76\00:14:38.07
the food has the
highest amount of calories
00:14:38.77\00:14:41.88
per weight is oil 8.8,
therefore when we fry foods
00:14:41.91\00:14:50.78
that oil seeped into
that food that is fried,
00:14:51.33\00:14:54.49
therefore that
baked potato which is only
00:14:54.52\00:14:56.40
60 calories but when
it is fried, it's now
00:14:56.43\00:14:59.40
a calorie dense
food because of the oil
00:14:59.43\00:15:01.58
that's been absorbed
in that food. That's why
00:15:02.30\00:15:04.77
the Bible in the King
James version no where
00:15:04.80\00:15:08.20
has the word fried or
frying found in God's word,
00:15:08.23\00:15:12.25
so therefore its not
only what we eat and we base
00:15:12.75\00:15:15.29
that on Genesis 1:29
and Genesis 3:18, but also
00:15:15.32\00:15:18.63
how the food is
prepared determines whether or
00:15:18.66\00:15:22.26
not that food is
going to be fattening,
00:15:22.29\00:15:23.66
whether it can
enlarge those fat cells.
00:15:23.76\00:15:26.55
So calorie
dense foods, so again,
00:15:26.58\00:15:28.23
what we want to do is
switch from those foods to
00:15:28.66\00:15:31.65
light calorie foods, therefore
00:15:32.37\00:15:35.30
when the main components
of plant based diet is
00:15:35.33\00:15:38.87
the lot of water
content, water has volume. Yes.
00:15:38.90\00:15:43.24
Therefore we can
eat more of those foods
00:15:43.27\00:15:45.72
with less calories, because
00:15:45.80\00:15:48.27
water doesn't have any calories.
00:15:48.30\00:15:50.34
Now you're talking about
the fruit and vegetables.
00:15:50.37\00:15:51.78
Exactly. Yes. That's
why we want to shift from
00:15:51.81\00:15:54.22
the calorie dense
foods to those foods that are
00:15:54.85\00:15:57.81
plant based has a
lot of water content,
00:15:57.84\00:16:00.49
it has the volume so
you have the sense of
00:16:00.52\00:16:03.27
fullness, satiety
mechanism is completed
00:16:03.30\00:16:06.69
but yet still the
calories are not high
00:16:06.72\00:16:09.11
at all, that's
what we want to do.
00:16:09.14\00:16:10.92
You know I think that
the thing that's so amazing
00:16:10.95\00:16:12.53
was that the new dietary
guidelines when it came out
00:16:12.56\00:16:15.12
it actually
addressed the whole issue.
00:16:15.15\00:16:17.56
That's true, of
food, but something
00:16:17.59\00:16:19.31
happened this
time. Yes. Not only did
00:16:19.34\00:16:21.17
it talk about the
foods that we should have
00:16:21.20\00:16:23.35
according to the pyramid
chart, it also talked about
00:16:23.38\00:16:25.84
exercise now
nowhere have they ever put
00:16:25.87\00:16:27.85
the food and exercise together.
00:16:27.88\00:16:29.48
It's the first time happening.
00:16:29.51\00:16:30.88
And that's because of
the problem in America
00:16:30.91\00:16:32.51
of the obesity factor,
and they even say the word
00:16:32.54\00:16:35.40
morbid obesity factor
which means we used to
00:16:35.43\00:16:37.48
have a problem with
the weight then the obesity
00:16:37.51\00:16:39.90
and now morbid
obesity which means that
00:16:39.93\00:16:41.31
we are way out of line
when it comes to our diet
00:16:41.34\00:16:44.52
and exercise and of
course we used to exercise a lot
00:16:44.55\00:16:46.73
before in the past
and so you could eat more
00:16:46.76\00:16:48.90
and of course the
exercise kind of helps to
00:16:48.93\00:16:51.46
balance it out. But
we now just kind of sit
00:16:51.49\00:16:53.97
around you know we got
the buttons we're pushing
00:16:54.00\00:16:56.09
you know, we were
fighting somebody in front of
00:16:56.12\00:16:58.25
the parking lot to
get to the store faster
00:16:58.28\00:17:01.04
you know I was there
first, it's just a lot of things
00:17:01.07\00:17:03.30
going on. Yes.
But dietary guidelines
00:17:03.33\00:17:05.53
this time came out
and was speaking about
00:17:05.56\00:17:07.64
they wanted us to look
at the foods, the fats,
00:17:07.67\00:17:11.92
trans fats, they want
out. Okay. Alright, that's,
00:17:12.27\00:17:15.36
we will talk about that
when we go into the kitchen.
00:17:15.39\00:17:17.40
Okay. Trans fat go
low in cholesterol okay,
00:17:17.43\00:17:20.67
but there was
something strange this time
00:17:20.70\00:17:22.18
that was really
wonderful it was almost like
00:17:22.21\00:17:24.23
somebody was
reading the word of God
00:17:24.26\00:17:25.63
because they
actually talked about
00:17:25.66\00:17:27.36
more of the plant based diet.
00:17:27.39\00:17:30.41
That's true. They
said nine servings,
00:17:30.98\00:17:33.59
nine servings,
that's four servings of
00:17:34.13\00:17:36.92
fruits and five
servings of vegetables alright
00:17:36.95\00:17:40.83
and you know once
before on Abundant
00:17:40.86\00:17:42.23
Living we spoke
about what's a serving,
00:17:42.26\00:17:44.33
half a cup of fruit or
vegetable is consider as
00:17:44.63\00:17:48.15
a serving
because it's more dense,
00:17:48.30\00:17:50.54
its been cooked. That's right.
00:17:50.57\00:17:51.94
And then a fresh, then
we are talking about one cup
00:17:51.97\00:17:54.24
and so with that in
mind you have to kind of
00:17:54.27\00:17:57.46
juggle those out to
know when you meet that nine
00:17:57.49\00:18:01.06
servings size okay,
now that's separate from
00:18:01.09\00:18:04.65
the grain and cereal kingdom,
away with all that white rice
00:18:04.68\00:18:08.10
that white flour, pastry flour,
00:18:08.13\00:18:10.50
whole wheat
flour is the way to go,
00:18:10.53\00:18:12.18
brown rice is the way to go,
00:18:12.21\00:18:14.07
brown whole wheat
bread is the way to go,
00:18:14.10\00:18:16.34
those whole grains,
that was really being
00:18:16.61\00:18:19.09
pushed a lot this
time as well and then also
00:18:19.12\00:18:21.34
that sodium level,
lowering the sodium level,
00:18:21.37\00:18:24.03
getting that sodium
level down no more than
00:18:24.40\00:18:26.23
one teaspoon. And
that's the entire day, okay,
00:18:26.26\00:18:28.51
one teaspoon, so when
you look at your sodium
00:18:28.54\00:18:30.19
we talked about that before,
00:18:30.22\00:18:31.65
sodium levels we said
one gram is equal to 1000 mg
00:18:32.89\00:18:37.93
and every time you look at salt,
00:18:37.96\00:18:39.46
an item that has
salt, you will always see in
00:18:39.49\00:18:41.24
milligram amounts and
so you want to curb that,
00:18:41.27\00:18:42.86
since you're salt sensitive,
00:18:42.89\00:18:44.26
so that's an issue as
well. And so with that in mind
00:18:44.29\00:18:46.62
it also talked about
exercise and exercise
00:18:46.65\00:18:49.52
we are going to
be holding on to that
00:18:49.55\00:18:50.92
until we get to the program,
00:18:50.95\00:18:52.32
its going to be
talking about and I am sure
00:18:52.35\00:18:53.72
we are going to
get on that program
00:18:53.75\00:18:55.12
as well exercise,
'cause that's the next
00:18:55.15\00:18:56.52
component as
well. That right, okay.
00:18:56.55\00:18:57.92
Well, I guess one of
the things I was thinking
00:18:58.41\00:18:59.95
about was people
like that high fat.
00:18:59.98\00:19:02.37
They do. And high sugar.
00:19:02.40\00:19:04.01
They do. And so how
can they make a change.
00:19:04.04\00:19:06.09
Well you know again
sometimes peoples taste
00:19:06.12\00:19:10.22
buds have been so perverted over
00:19:10.25\00:19:12.08
the years because
we, lot of people like
00:19:12.11\00:19:14.69
the salty foods,
the sugary foods,
00:19:15.30\00:19:17.06
the high fats
foods, when we were born
00:19:17.09\00:19:20.05
outside the sense of
pain, taste is the sense that's
00:19:20.51\00:19:25.48
most fully
developed, this sense of taste,
00:19:25.51\00:19:29.50
we have 9000 taste
buds on our tongue,
00:19:30.25\00:19:34.42
they die and
regenerate every 10 to 14 days.
00:19:35.01\00:19:38.86
Lets go to our last
graph and lets look at
00:19:38.89\00:19:41.44
the taste buds on your
tongue, let's talk about
00:19:41.47\00:19:44.56
this because we
can simply change
00:19:44.59\00:19:47.66
our taste buds, now
you see those projections
00:19:47.78\00:19:49.92
there, those are
what we call papillae and
00:19:49.95\00:19:52.71
at the tip of
those projections there,
00:19:52.74\00:19:55.19
in the back there
you have taste buds,
00:19:55.55\00:19:57.94
it seems like they
had a bad hair day,
00:19:57.97\00:20:00.36
those are taste receptors
and so therefore sometimes
00:20:00.68\00:20:05.03
those taste
receptors that you see there,
00:20:05.06\00:20:07.32
some look like
mushrooms, some look like small
00:20:07.35\00:20:09.94
volcanoes, there
taste buds sometimes been
00:20:09.97\00:20:14.76
perverted over the
years and we simply need to
00:20:14.79\00:20:17.48
retrain those taste buds.
Thank you for that graphic,
00:20:17.51\00:20:20.45
so what we need to
do is to shift and those
00:20:20.48\00:20:24.35
high fat foods, high
sugar foods, keep in mind
00:20:24.38\00:20:27.72
those taste buds can
be retrained about every
00:20:28.24\00:20:32.37
two weeks, so in
time we can change the way
00:20:32.40\00:20:34.98
we taste foods, so in time
we don't like the high salty
00:20:35.01\00:20:39.62
high sugary foods
because the taste buds
00:20:39.65\00:20:41.54
have be
retrained. So again folks,
00:20:41.57\00:20:43.93
but again our last challenge,
00:20:43.96\00:20:45.72
we are going to leave
with you in this part of
00:20:45.75\00:20:48.05
the program is
kitchen CLOSED at 6 alright.
00:20:48.08\00:20:53.78
Well, our
kitchen is open right now
00:20:53.81\00:20:55.18
because we're
getting ready to do,
00:20:55.21\00:20:56.58
as we are going
into the kitchen and
00:20:56.61\00:20:57.98
we are going to make a
Mediterranean vegetable.
00:20:58.01\00:21:00.72
So lets just get your
paper and pencil and stay by.
00:21:00.75\00:21:04.76
