Our immune system is fortified with a good defense team. 00:00:01.98\00:00:05.24 B team and T cells and, but sometimes TB crews 00:00:05.27\00:00:09.17 go AWAL that means Absence Without Authorized Leaves. 00:00:09.20\00:00:13.74 How can they leave the defense team? 00:00:13.77\00:00:15.93 Well, today's program is entitled how to weaken 00:00:15.96\00:00:19.29 your immunity, so stay by. 00:00:19.32\00:00:21.40 Hi, welcome to abundant living, this is Curtis Eakins 00:00:53.30\00:00:55.72 and I like you introduce my beautiful wife Paula Eakins. 00:00:55.75\00:00:59.53 You doing alright today honey? 00:00:59.56\00:01:01.00 I'm doing wonderful. You are looking mighty good too? 00:01:01.03\00:01:02.97 Thank you. Praise the lord. 00:01:03.00\00:01:04.37 Now this is a part two. Part two. To part one. 00:01:05.15\00:01:07.71 Yes. We talk before kind of about immune system. 00:01:07.74\00:01:12.07 Okay. And I guess the ones that might have missed that, 00:01:12.10\00:01:15.38 you might want talk a little bit about, 00:01:15.41\00:01:16.78 give me little bit review. Okay, just a review, now 00:01:16.81\00:01:19.45 of course last time we met, just how to build a 00:01:19.48\00:01:22.76 strong immunity? And in our program we talk about 00:01:22.79\00:01:25.53 a first nutrition therapy and particularly your fruits 00:01:25.56\00:01:29.50 and vegetables they have a high antioxidant content, 00:01:29.53\00:01:33.74 high anticancer content as well. We talked about 00:01:33.77\00:01:37.72 the immune system and relationship to oncology, 00:01:37.75\00:01:40.07 cancer in particular, but in particular beside the 00:01:40.10\00:01:44.52 Carotenoids or Carotenes, what are those carotenes, honey? 00:01:44.55\00:01:47.56 Well, we talked about the carrots in this, well the all 00:01:47.59\00:01:50.61 the yellow and orange carotenoids, carrots orange, 00:01:50.64\00:01:53.96 and we talked about the squash and we talked 00:01:53.99\00:01:55.89 about the, the scallions, and all the tomato family. 00:01:55.92\00:01:59.51 Everything is yellow and orange and reds 00:02:00.54\00:02:02.21 and even sometimes camouflaged in dark leafy green. 00:02:02.24\00:02:06.26 That's right. Okay, so you got the pumpkin, 00:02:06.29\00:02:08.29 yellow squash and all those things. 00:02:08.32\00:02:10.08 Those are provitamin A foods that will strengthen 00:02:10.11\00:02:13.84 the immune system, carrot is number one 00:02:13.87\00:02:16.07 in that category. Also, we talked about going to bed 00:02:16.10\00:02:19.30 at a descent hour and what time is that honey? 00:02:19.33\00:02:21.67 Before 10. Not past, before 10 yeah because after 10 it 00:02:23.04\00:02:25.32 starts going downhill so, that goes your interest, 00:02:25.35\00:02:27.78 yeah, we need that rest folks because when we rest 00:02:27.81\00:02:30.48 of course it builds immune system have to fortify it 00:02:30.51\00:02:33.54 as well. Then also we talked about exercise, walking 00:02:33.57\00:02:37.54 because the lymphatic system does not have 00:02:37.71\00:02:40.77 a pumping action. The heart pumps the blood 00:02:40.80\00:02:44.11 through the vessels but the lymphatic system 00:02:44.14\00:02:46.42 which also cares the immune cells does not have 00:02:46.45\00:02:49.37 a pumping action so of course we have to do that 00:02:49.40\00:02:51.87 ourselves through walking. Brisk walking preferably in 00:02:51.90\00:02:56.58 open air. Also we talked about 00:02:56.61\00:02:58.83 the stress factor having a good positive attitude 00:02:58.86\00:03:03.10 and so again a lot of people going through different 00:03:03.13\00:03:05.98 changes when it comes to cancer oncology 00:03:06.01\00:03:08.50 and hear the news and then sometimes the fear of it 00:03:08.53\00:03:11.83 coming back to recur, so again we want to rely on 00:03:11.86\00:03:14.80 the Lord that He has our case. So, whatever happens, 00:03:14.83\00:03:19.31 he is in control, let him have it and then just 00:03:19.34\00:03:22.94 let it stay there with him and he will safeguard us 00:03:22.97\00:03:26.69 and he will keep us at a calm, peace state of mind. 00:03:26.72\00:03:31.46 We also talked about herb medicine and you called, 00:03:31.49\00:03:33.91 yes, that a special herb. Yes a special herb is 00:03:33.94\00:03:36.63 Chinese herb called astragalus and lot of Chinese 00:03:36.66\00:03:39.75 doctors, Chinese oncologists over there 00:03:39.78\00:03:41.76 in China uses these herbs quite, although it's heavily 00:03:41.79\00:03:46.93 as far as to a cancer patients are concerned 00:03:46.96\00:03:49.44 and so they usually conjunction with other herb 00:03:49.47\00:03:52.01 particularly those who have been going through 00:03:52.04\00:03:54.10 chemotherapy. They have to restore the immune system 00:03:54.13\00:03:57.77 due to that conventional type of treatment. 00:03:57.80\00:04:00.58 So, again natural remedies are the way to go over medicine, 00:04:00.61\00:04:05.40 astragalus, so lot of these that we can do to strengthen 00:04:05.43\00:04:08.28 the immune system, but today's program is how to weaken, 00:04:08.31\00:04:11.65 hmmm, the immune system. Of course, now to weaken 00:04:11.68\00:04:15.16 it, just don't do the things we just mentioned. 00:04:15.19\00:04:17.69 We can go into the kitchen. Well, I think 00:04:17.72\00:04:19.95 the main thing is to just go ahead on once again 00:04:19.98\00:04:22.42 and talk about what foods will actually weaken 00:04:22.45\00:04:26.25 the immune system. Okay, so this is what 00:04:26.28\00:04:28.94 you don't need to do folks, how to weaken 00:04:28.97\00:04:31.57 the immunity? Now of course there has been lot of 00:04:31.60\00:04:34.04 clinical studies on how the immunity can be suppressed 00:04:34.07\00:04:37.81 or the depressed. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition 00:04:37.84\00:04:41.55 had article on as far as certain foods that 00:04:41.58\00:04:44.83 will simply depress the immune system. 00:04:45.25\00:04:48.52 Now you have the fatty foods, the fried foods, 00:04:48.83\00:04:51.41 fried foods will cause few radicals and few radicals 00:04:52.69\00:04:55.36 is not good to, it has the immune system, 00:04:55.47\00:04:58.32 it simply weakens the immune system. 00:04:59.16\00:05:00.53 So, fried foods, fatty foods also foods 00:05:01.32\00:05:03.27 that come from the animal kingdom has arachidonic acid 00:05:03.30\00:05:06.28 and saturated fat and cholesterol all those type 00:05:06.31\00:05:09.91 of properties simply suppress the immune system. 00:05:09.94\00:05:13.04 So I'm going to go to a plant based source, 00:05:13.07\00:05:14.61 so that's how to weakened the immune system, 00:05:14.64\00:05:17.40 but one more thing I want to zero in 00:05:17.43\00:05:19.31 and when it comes to nutritional therapy 00:05:19.34\00:05:21.37 and that is SUGAR, Sugar. 00:05:21.40\00:05:27.88 Sugar, now I know just hurt someone's feeling 00:05:27.91\00:05:30.15 with that but folks truth must be told sugar depresses 00:05:30.18\00:05:35.21 the immune system. Let's go to our first graphic 00:05:35.24\00:05:38.25 and see how sugar can depress the immune system. 00:05:38.28\00:05:41.75 Now sugar 0 tsp where are germs can be eaten 14 germs 00:05:43.01\00:05:49.67 can be eaten if one does not take any refines sugars 00:05:49.70\00:05:53.37 at all alright, consumed, but now if we take in 6 tsp of sugar 00:05:53.40\00:05:59.77 that's about 1 can of Coke or 1 brownie then only 00:06:00.68\00:06:04.35 10 germs can be eaten or engulfed by the 00:06:04.38\00:06:09.50 white blood cells within 30 minutes. Hmm. 00:06:09.53\00:06:11.68 Now, let's drop down to 12 tsp that's about 2 cans 00:06:11.71\00:06:17.07 of Coke or 2 brownies then immune system 00:06:17.10\00:06:20.88 can only engulf only 5 germs in 30 minutes. 00:06:20.91\00:06:26.09 16 tsp 3 brownie or 3 Cokes they can only engulf 00:06:27.14\00:06:32.20 2 germs within 30 minutes, but now 24 tsp of sugar 00:06:32.23\00:06:38.76 which is about approximately 4 cans of coke 00:06:38.79\00:06:41.69 and these are 12 ounces just or 4 brownie approximately 00:06:41.72\00:06:44.48 the white blood cells the macrophage, the big eaters 00:06:46.12\00:06:48.43 can only engulf in 30 minutes 1 germ just by the sugar 00:06:48.46\00:06:55.06 intake so therefore thank you for the graphic, 00:06:55.09\00:06:58.08 therefore to weaken our immunity we must increase 00:06:58.11\00:07:04.22 our sugar content refined sugars that's how 00:07:05.04\00:07:07.99 we can weakened our immunity. I know that people have 00:07:08.02\00:07:13.26 to me things like I got to cold or I've got to flu 00:07:13.29\00:07:17.71 and we've also told them that let's kind to go back 00:07:17.74\00:07:20.86 and figure out what it was that might have 00:07:20.89\00:07:22.74 caused you to have to cold Okay. Not just the cold air 00:07:22.77\00:07:25.28 outside and one of things they will say 00:07:25.31\00:07:27.94 to me is that I ate too much sweets. Hmm. 00:07:27.97\00:07:30.96 And so that's incredible and when you talk about the 00:07:30.99\00:07:33.13 germ factor and the fact that the macrophage 00:07:33.16\00:07:36.08 actually they can only eat up so many germs so then 00:07:36.11\00:07:39.73 In 30 minutes. The more sugar we have the less germs, 00:07:39.76\00:07:43.15 it can eat which means it winds up making us sick. 00:07:43.18\00:07:45.32 Right so the immune system is now suppressed 00:07:45.35\00:07:48.04 therefore that's how we can weaken our immune system, 00:07:48.07\00:07:52.26 very profound. And sugar, sugar is everywhere. 00:07:52.29\00:07:55.11 Now of course you don't have to drink a Coke 00:07:55.14\00:07:56.66 or eat a brownie. Of course, sugar like you said before 00:07:56.69\00:07:59.51 we find sugars in lot of your fast food baked 00:07:59.54\00:08:04.95 goods and those kind of things so again that's why 00:08:04.98\00:08:07.25 on Abundant Living programs on 3ABN 00:08:07.28\00:08:10.17 not using and we not using lot of refined sugars 00:08:11.15\00:08:13.93 but sugars naturally come into the plant kingdom 00:08:13.96\00:08:17.16 in the form of fruit. And we had on a show. 00:08:17.19\00:08:20.50 Okay. We talking about sugars and once again 00:08:21.07\00:08:24.35 I love to go to stores and read those labels 00:08:24.38\00:08:26.41 and that was a an apple crisp in the store. Okay. 00:08:26.44\00:08:30.35 In the apple crisp why looked at on label 00:08:30.38\00:08:31.79 it had on there fructose, corn syrup solids, 00:08:31.82\00:08:37.30 corn syrup, dextrose, maltose, Galactose. 00:08:37.33\00:08:44.15 Galactose and then he said corn syrup solids. 00:08:44.18\00:08:49.43 Now that one fructose. Okay. 00:08:50.57\00:08:52.49 Because people call on the phone 00:08:52.52\00:08:54.04 and who ask me I know do you use fructose 00:08:54.07\00:08:56.39 or Florida Crystals on the program exactly... you know 00:08:56.42\00:08:59.44 when he say high fructose corn syrup isn't that 00:08:59.47\00:09:02.18 the same thing, fructose is a fruit sugar. Hmm. 00:09:02.21\00:09:05.98 Okay, derived form fruit. Okay. But when you see 00:09:06.01\00:09:08.13 the word high fructose corn syrup that's actually 00:09:08.16\00:09:12.16 fruit sugar with regular sugar added. 00:09:12.19\00:09:16.18 Now you talking about impounding on the problem. 00:09:16.21\00:09:19.66 Okay. And so in one item you can have about 5 to 6 00:09:19.69\00:09:22.89 different sugars and they just move them around 00:09:22.92\00:09:25.42 because they don't want you to know, you know what 00:09:25.45\00:09:27.25 is it the higher of the amount of whatever you using. 00:09:27.28\00:09:29.86 Right. That's be the first ingredient. 00:09:29.89\00:09:31.41 So they don't want you using all that sugar 00:09:31.44\00:09:32.81 so they spread it out with all different kind of names. 00:09:32.84\00:09:34.79 So by the time you put and collect them 00:09:34.82\00:09:36.91 altogether basically the entire item 00:09:36.94\00:09:39.61 is more sugar. And the immune system 00:09:39.64\00:09:41.83 is weakened by that. Yes. So that's how they can do it. 00:09:41.86\00:09:44.60 Yes, yes, yes, yes. So this today's program 00:09:44.63\00:09:46.92 is what you don't need to do. What you don't need to do. 00:09:46.95\00:09:49.53 What you don't need to do. What you don't need to do. 00:09:49.56\00:09:50.93 And you made a comment about that rest 00:09:50.96\00:09:52.33 so what if a person doesn't really want to go 00:09:52.36\00:09:54.38 bed at 10'0 clock. Well now there is problem 00:09:54.41\00:09:57.02 with that and I think we have a Bible text. 00:09:57.05\00:09:58.81 Let's look at the Bible text we're gonna talk about 00:09:58.84\00:10:01.15 that Bible text. Let's go to our next graphic at this time. 00:10:01.18\00:10:03.68 Stay up late this is how we can again weakened 00:10:05.83\00:10:08.85 our immunity Psalms 127 verse 2 NIV so simply 00:10:08.88\00:10:12.94 put folks here it is " In vain you rise early 00:10:12.97\00:10:17.99 and stay up late". I just simply put rise up early 00:10:18.02\00:10:24.62 and stay up late, now we talked about how to strengthen 00:10:24.65\00:10:29.17 the immunity by going to bed not past 10 o'clock 00:10:29.20\00:10:33.34 preferably before that. But now to weaken 00:10:33.37\00:10:36.12 the immunity of course it just opposite staying up late 00:10:36.15\00:10:39.23 and we said before when you stay up late 00:10:39.26\00:10:41.36 then of course the immune system 00:10:41.39\00:10:43.02 doesn't have a chance to regenerate itself. 00:10:43.05\00:10:46.20 It has to have proper sleep the body, otherwise is going to 00:10:47.17\00:10:52.95 be behind the game and of course the immune system 00:10:52.98\00:10:55.52 will be compromised. So staying up late... 00:10:55.55\00:10:58.18 and they did a study and this is interesting, 00:10:58.21\00:11:00.47 this is in the medical journey called 00:11:00.50\00:11:02.37 psychosomatic medicine where they took some 00:11:02.40\00:11:05.76 volunteers and they deprived him of one half 00:11:05.79\00:11:09.89 of there time sleeping time was deprive so they slept 00:11:09.92\00:11:14.16 8 hours they only gave them 4 hours of sleep 00:11:14.19\00:11:17.71 for one single night, the next day they check their blood 00:11:17.74\00:11:22.12 the natural killer cells had decreased by 30 percent. 00:11:22.15\00:11:27.98 Hmm. In one single night of not getting proper sleep 00:11:28.01\00:11:33.29 just one half and those natural killer cells 00:11:33.32\00:11:35.92 did not come up to is normalcy until they had a peaceful 00:11:35.95\00:11:40.17 restful sleep. One nights sleep, half to time 00:11:40.20\00:11:45.11 that you normally sleep... Natural killer cells and those 00:11:45.14\00:11:47.83 are powerful cells that were simply attack cancer cells 00:11:47.86\00:11:50.13 dropped 30 percent.

While we're on the subject 00:11:57.51\00:12:01.87 the sweet stuff how about drinking? 00:12:01.90\00:12:05.20 Oh well now drinking of course there is study done 00:12:06.71\00:12:10.19 several studies done or alcohol and when 00:12:10.22\00:12:12.77 one in just alcohol, alcohol also suppresses 00:12:12.80\00:12:17.56 and decreases the natural killer cells and 00:12:17.59\00:12:21.36 also the white blood cells, so again it drops drastically 00:12:21.39\00:12:25.81 by alcohol consumption, so again we want to be careful 00:12:25.84\00:12:28.90 as far as alcohol consumption. Now of course on 00:12:28.93\00:12:30.52 Abundant Living and 3ABN, we're not even talking moderation 00:12:30.55\00:12:33.45 of that's folks zero, zip, nota, that means nothing 00:12:33.48\00:12:38.53 alright, because we don't need that and what we need 00:12:38.56\00:12:42.17 is the fresh juice of the grape, unfermented, 00:12:42.20\00:12:45.23 that's fine but not fermented kind so... 00:12:45.26\00:12:47.25 But now we have one more graphic 00:12:47.28\00:12:48.82 we're going to the kitchen honey it's talking about 00:12:48.85\00:12:51.12 God's Word, God's Word had something say about how to also 00:12:51.15\00:12:55.53 weaken our immunity, this is profound let's go to our 00:12:55.56\00:12:57.56 last graphic at this time. 00:12:57.59\00:12:58.96 Get depressed try to weaken our immunity 00:12:58.99\00:13:03.08 Proverbs 17:22 excuse me, it says this 00:13:03.11\00:13:07.23 "A cheerful heart is good medicine, but 00:13:07.26\00:13:10.11 here is the flip side, a crushed Spirit dries up the bones." 00:13:11.01\00:13:18.47 Thank you for the graphic now this is interesting. 00:13:18.50\00:13:20.51 Let's look at Anatomy & Physiology. 00:13:20.54\00:13:22.92 while just about the save that a Crushed Spirit 00:13:22.95\00:13:27.71 dries up the bones? If we said before in our last program 00:13:27.74\00:13:31.02 white blood cells, the B cells are manufactured 00:13:31.05\00:13:35.66 in the bones, the bone marrow produces a lot 00:13:35.69\00:13:39.66 of fluid, if we are depressed and therefore we have 00:13:39.69\00:13:45.23 a negative pessimistic attitude it decreases 00:13:45.26\00:13:50.45 our white blood cells it says white blood cells 00:13:50.48\00:13:53.43 has a lot of fluid then our bones literally dry up. 00:13:53.46\00:13:58.52 So that text is scientifically sound, 00:13:59.28\00:14:02.36 therefore to have a weakened immunity 00:14:02.39\00:14:05.32 get depressed and stay that way. 00:14:05.35\00:14:08.49 Hmm, alright, have a bad attitude and that 00:14:08.52\00:14:11.75 will also weaken our immunity. 00:14:11.78\00:14:14.68 There was study done in Lancet Magazine 00:14:14.71\00:14:16.80 where they even checked the blood of those who were just 00:14:17.80\00:14:20.43 lost their mates either husband or wives or just 00:14:20.46\00:14:23.21 passed away and their white blood cells and 00:14:23.24\00:14:26.17 natural killer cells was decreased drastically because 00:14:26.20\00:14:29.78 of that event of the lost loved one. So again to weaken 00:14:29.81\00:14:33.78 immunity, get depressed, get stressed out. 00:14:33.81\00:14:37.08 But, now we don't want to do that but so therefore 00:14:37.97\00:14:40.77 it is like a catch 22, so anything we say 00:14:40.80\00:14:43.81 in this program don't do it. 00:14:43.84\00:14:46.38 Well, what you want to do then is catch the first program, 00:14:48.09\00:14:50.42 yeah, the first program, I mean if you get, 00:14:50.45\00:14:51.82 so both programs, yeah, really 00:14:51.85\00:14:53.22 go hand in hand. You go hand in hand. 00:14:53.25\00:14:54.64 They go hand in hand. But the recipe is different 00:14:54.67\00:14:56.72 on this program. That's right. 00:14:56.75\00:14:58.19 Because on this program we're actually gonna to do 00:14:58.22\00:14:59.81 a Fresh Fruit Tart get your paper and your pencil 00:14:59.84\00:15:03.99 and meet us in the kitchen. 00:15:04.02\00:15:05.74
