When we were
younger our arteries
00:00:01.98\00:00:03.35
were smooth, they were clean,
00:00:03.38\00:00:04.85
unobstructive of blood flow.
00:00:05.45\00:00:06.86
But as we get older
with diet and lifestyle
00:00:07.33\00:00:09.90
they become obstructive with
00:00:10.04\00:00:11.42
something that
we're going to talk about
00:00:11.45\00:00:12.82
today entitled Plaque Attack.
00:00:12.85\00:00:15.28
We will be right back.
00:00:15.56\00:00:16.93
Hi, welcome to Abundant Living.
00:00:43.23\00:00:44.74
This is Curtis
Eakins, your co-host and my
00:00:44.77\00:00:47.31
lovely bride of
16 glorious wonderful
00:00:47.34\00:00:50.07
years, Paula
Eakins. I don't know what's
00:00:50.10\00:00:52.58
the reason for the
laughter at this time,
00:00:52.61\00:00:54.25
why are you laughing? Nothing.
00:00:55.08\00:00:56.45
Nothing? I was
just funny as a co-host.
00:00:56.76\00:00:59.34
Hi. Okay, hi and
your name would be?
00:00:59.64\00:01:02.53
You said Paula Eakins. Did I?
00:01:02.56\00:01:04.04
Yes, you did. Okay, just
00:01:04.07\00:01:05.44
wanted to hear you say it too.
00:01:05.47\00:01:06.84
You are doing mighty good today.
00:01:06.87\00:01:08.24
Absolutely.
Your hair looks nice.
00:01:08.30\00:01:09.67
Thank You. Thank You.
00:01:10.16\00:01:11.53
Plaque Attack. We have
been attacked by Plaque.
00:01:11.88\00:01:17.22
You know what it just amazes me.
00:01:18.31\00:01:20.38
You know people ask
me all the time and say
00:01:20.41\00:01:21.98
why do you guys come
up with these programs
00:01:22.32\00:01:23.99
you know these titles and I say,
00:01:24.02\00:01:25.39
I have nothing to
do with these titles.
00:01:25.42\00:01:26.82
Curtis picks every
single title because
00:01:27.25\00:01:29.23
every time I pick a title it's
00:01:29.26\00:01:30.63
way too long,
it's like a sentence.
00:01:30.66\00:01:32.12
Well almost like a
paragraph, but lengthy
00:01:32.15\00:01:34.45
sentence, okay just like that.
00:01:34.48\00:01:35.85
That's better, yes,
but you always pick some
00:01:36.98\00:01:39.58
unique, saying so Plaque Attack
00:01:40.74\00:01:42.48
really kind of
cute. You know and again,
00:01:42.51\00:01:45.99
this is part of a
series, a clean heart series and
00:01:46.02\00:01:51.65
this is the third part
of the clean heart series
00:01:51.68\00:01:53.58
entitled Plaque
Attack and so we covered
00:01:53.61\00:01:56.49
the pressures
on, blood pressure,
00:01:56.97\00:01:58.44
controlling cholesterol,
now it's Plaque Attack
00:01:59.18\00:02:01.52
and next time when
we meet, it would be
00:02:01.55\00:02:03.90
different strokes
for different folks.
00:02:04.38\00:02:05.98
Well, alright.
Plaque Attack and we
00:02:06.01\00:02:08.39
have been attacked by plaque.
00:02:08.42\00:02:09.85
Attack by plaque!
Well I guess the question
00:02:10.22\00:02:11.93
is exactly, what is plaque?
00:02:11.96\00:02:13.38
Well plaque is debris
or particles that adheres
00:02:14.11\00:02:17.67
to the artery wall.
We have a picture of
00:02:17.70\00:02:20.03
plaque, so let's go to
the screen at this time.
00:02:20.06\00:02:22.03
You see here of course
now on the left side you
00:02:22.97\00:02:24.97
have an artery that's
clean, free flowing of
00:02:25.00\00:02:28.57
blood and that's the
way an artery should look.
00:02:28.60\00:02:30.93
Now of course on the
right side is the build up
00:02:31.24\00:02:33.65
of that debris I
was talking about,
00:02:33.68\00:02:35.28
which we call
plaque. And so therefore with
00:02:35.60\00:02:38.30
that in mind, of course
it narrows the artery wall,
00:02:38.33\00:02:40.85
and of course that can
raises our blood pressure.
00:02:41.27\00:02:43.19
That wall right
there is very elastic,
00:02:43.91\00:02:46.47
but when the
plaque is there it becomes
00:02:46.63\00:02:48.54
very stiff and rigid. So
it's not elastic anymore.
00:02:48.57\00:02:51.83
So therefore
blood pressure goes up
00:02:51.86\00:02:53.98
and with that we have
a very serious problem
00:02:54.55\00:02:57.25
before us, blood flow
being impeded throughout
00:02:57.28\00:03:01.51
the whole system as
well. So, a lot of foods can do
00:03:01.54\00:03:04.30
that and some foods
in particular can create
00:03:04.33\00:03:09.36
more plaque on the artery wall.
00:03:09.39\00:03:10.95
Now, you have a
little demo here on visual.
00:03:10.98\00:03:13.19
I just happen to have.
00:03:13.22\00:03:14.59
You just happen
to have something.
00:03:14.62\00:03:15.99
I happen to
have, because you know
00:03:16.02\00:03:17.39
when we do our
classes in our community,
00:03:17.42\00:03:18.79
yes, people
always ask me question,
00:03:18.82\00:03:20.27
how much fat is
actually in certain foods,
00:03:20.30\00:03:23.07
okay, and how
much plaque attack.
00:03:23.10\00:03:24.47
Now, do we need to
hold on to our seat
00:03:24.50\00:03:25.87
for this one
baby. Yeah, yeah we do.
00:03:25.90\00:03:27.27
Okay. This one is
actually one taco.
00:03:27.30\00:03:31.10
Just, one taco. One taco,
00:03:31.76\00:03:33.56
one taco nine grams of fat.
00:03:33.59\00:03:36.05
Nine grams of fat in
one taco, now keep in mind
00:03:36.08\00:03:39.03
folks, our arteries is
the size of a spaghetti, yes.
00:03:39.06\00:03:43.49
So, that one taco, you
know keep that in mind,
00:03:43.52\00:03:45.97
it can really clog up
those coronary arteries.
00:03:46.00\00:03:48.79
Right, right, right.
Well, let's do another one.
00:03:48.82\00:03:50.75
Now, this is a
sausage and biscuit;
00:03:51.27\00:03:52.80
I have friends
that say I love to get a
00:03:52.83\00:03:54.37
sausage and
biscuit. Sausage and biscuit.
00:03:54.40\00:03:56.70
Early in the morning, 29 grams.
00:03:56.73\00:03:59.50
29 grams of fat.
Now, lets make sure
00:03:59.53\00:04:02.15
we get those
numbers correct now in
00:04:02.18\00:04:03.68
prospective, I mean
three to four grams of
00:04:03.71\00:04:06.05
fat is really
amount that is sufficient,
00:04:06.08\00:04:09.59
I mean we don't want to
go over three or four or
00:04:09.62\00:04:11.24
five and you're
talking about how much.
00:04:11.27\00:04:12.94
29, 29, this is a
sausage and biscuit,
00:04:13.27\00:04:15.70
sausage and biscuit combination.
00:04:15.73\00:04:17.10
Yes, alright, yes
29. Okay, that's amazing.
00:04:17.13\00:04:18.83
Okay, now, this is the one
00:04:18.86\00:04:20.23
I think is going to really hurt
00:04:20.26\00:04:21.63
Okay hold on to, you
see for this one folks.
00:04:21.66\00:04:23.03
Yeah, you know hold on, hold on.
00:04:23.06\00:04:24.43
Now this one we're doing that.
00:04:24.46\00:04:25.83
Now, well you got
three all together in that.
00:04:25.86\00:04:27.23
Three together.
Okay. This one here
00:04:27.26\00:04:28.63
is actually a burger. A burger.
00:04:28.66\00:04:30.03
This is a nice large burger.
00:04:30.06\00:04:31.43
Now, it's one of those
famous burger that most
00:04:31.46\00:04:32.83
people heard of
it, we're not going
00:04:32.86\00:04:34.23
to mention the name. No, no.
00:04:34.26\00:04:35.63
Was a famous restaurant.
How about, how about,
00:04:35.66\00:04:37.03
how about 40 grams.
40 grams, let's hold
00:04:37.06\00:04:40.52
that, make sure
they see that, 40 grams,
00:04:40.55\00:04:42.24
hold it still baby. 40 grams.
00:04:42.27\00:04:43.64
And turn it, yeah so you
can see all three of them.
00:04:43.67\00:04:45.51
Yes, on the
screen, all three 40 grams.
00:04:45.65\00:04:47.39
40 grams of fat for
just that one famous
00:04:47.51\00:04:51.95
fast food burger
with cheese, I think,
00:04:52.39\00:04:55.36
now we're not even
talking about the French fries.
00:04:55.39\00:04:57.01
Well, I think that
thing that's so amazing here,
00:04:57.04\00:04:58.83
that is exactly right,
we're not talking about
00:04:58.86\00:05:00.56
the French fries and
we're not talking about
00:05:00.59\00:05:02.09
the shake that usually
goes with that as well.
00:05:02.12\00:05:03.97
You know, a lot of
people are just not
00:05:04.38\00:05:06.16
understanding when
we're talking about
00:05:07.37\00:05:09.29
plaque buildup, how
much plaque is actually,
00:05:09.32\00:05:11.91
I mean how much fat is
in the lot of the foods
00:05:11.94\00:05:13.88
that we eat, hidden fats. Right.
00:05:13.91\00:05:15.72
You know that they're
in the foods we actually
00:05:15.75\00:05:17.53
eat and they're causing
problems for us as well.
00:05:17.56\00:05:19.86
Yes, okay, alright.
Now, the saturated fat
00:05:19.89\00:05:22.70
in the foods can
also create plaque
00:05:22.73\00:05:24.74
in artery wall as
well. There are three foods
00:05:24.77\00:05:28.18
that I hate and show it
as above all other foods
00:05:28.36\00:05:31.04
as the most artery
clogging saturated fat.
00:05:31.07\00:05:34.82
Okay, food number
three is whole milk.
00:05:35.09\00:05:37.15
Now, whole milk is
going down about 210
00:05:37.41\00:05:39.27
percent since 1970
now people are buying one
00:05:39.30\00:05:42.37
percent, two percent
there's also zero percent
00:05:42.40\00:05:45.21
milk, going to soy
milk and almond milk.
00:05:45.24\00:05:48.15
Food number two, that's
the most artery clogging
00:05:49.41\00:05:51.89
saturated fat ounce
for ounce, pound for pound
00:05:51.92\00:05:54.67
is ground beef.
And ground beef has
00:05:54.99\00:05:57.13
gone down about 30
percent since 1970 and
00:05:57.16\00:06:01.30
people will understand
about that, and ground
00:06:01.33\00:06:03.12
beef is really
going down and chicken is
00:06:03.15\00:06:04.90
going up, but of
course we did a program on
00:06:04.93\00:06:07.36
problems with pork and
yes, so we're not, yes,
00:06:07.90\00:06:09.27
yes, going to deal
that. But now food number one.
00:06:09.30\00:06:11.53
Ounce for
ounce, pound for pound,
00:06:12.82\00:06:16.09
that's the most artery clogging
00:06:16.44\00:06:18.62
saturated fat is, cheese.
00:06:19.46\00:06:24.47
Mercy. I just heard some.
00:06:24.50\00:06:26.22
Yes you did. Yes, yes I did.
00:06:26.25\00:06:27.91
Yeah I did, you did, you did.
00:06:27.94\00:06:29.31
Yeah may be. To boot, cheese has
00:06:29.34\00:06:32.12
about two to three
hundred milligrams of
00:06:32.15\00:06:33.78
sodium per ounce
and we're talking about
00:06:33.81\00:06:37.73
a clean heart
series, we're talking about
00:06:38.08\00:06:40.93
plaque attack and so
therefore with that in
00:06:41.35\00:06:43.57
mind those three
foods by themselves can
00:06:43.60\00:06:46.25
really reek havoc
along the artery wall and can
00:06:46.28\00:06:49.19
build up that
plaque in there as well.
00:06:49.22\00:06:50.99
So, those three
foods now there is some
00:06:51.02\00:06:52.39
substitute for each
one of those three foods,
00:06:52.42\00:06:54.30
let's quickly talk about that.
00:06:54.33\00:06:55.70
Well you know the
thing is that because
00:06:55.73\00:06:57.40
of the fat there's so
much information is out
00:06:57.43\00:06:58.85
there about heart
disease and high blood
00:06:58.88\00:07:02.30
pressure then of
course the manufacturers are
00:07:02.33\00:07:04.22
making a lot of more substitutes
00:07:04.25\00:07:05.84
how they look like. That's true.
00:07:05.87\00:07:07.24
Act like, smell
like, taste like.
00:07:07.27\00:07:08.64
The original things
for their substitutes for
00:07:08.89\00:07:11.08
cheeses, we have
done those on our program.
00:07:11.11\00:07:12.84
That's why the soy cheeses.
00:07:12.87\00:07:14.24
Soy cheeses, rice cheeses,
00:07:14.27\00:07:17.00
almond cheeses all
those are actually on the
00:07:17.03\00:07:18.40
market now, and some
of those can melt too.
00:07:18.43\00:07:20.16
Some of those can
melt. Some do not melt,
00:07:20.19\00:07:21.56
just have to. That's right, yes.
00:07:21.59\00:07:23.10
They'll actually
have it on the label,
00:07:23.71\00:07:25.08
it will say on there,
right, a melting cheese.
00:07:25.11\00:07:26.72
Yeah, okay. Then also as far as
00:07:26.75\00:07:29.13
you milk stuff is concerned,
00:07:29.16\00:07:30.53
there now of
course your almond milk,
00:07:30.56\00:07:32.33
your rice milks, your
soy milks, that's true,
00:07:32.36\00:07:35.17
a lot of combinations
of those out there as well,
00:07:35.20\00:07:37.31
no cholesterol
whatsoever. Zero cholesterol.
00:07:37.68\00:07:39.66
And then of course
in the meat kingdom
00:07:40.32\00:07:42.38
we've done a lot
on ABN and Abundant
00:07:42.65\00:07:44.27
Living show, and on
our other shows we've
00:07:44.30\00:07:46.85
done on ABN, what we
looked we showed other
00:07:46.88\00:07:49.12
substitutes for beef,
for chicken or for fish.
00:07:49.15\00:07:53.03
So, they're all out
there, they're all a part of it,
00:07:53.19\00:07:55.12
now I guess someone is
asking a question about
00:07:55.55\00:07:57.49
that plaque
buildup, so what kind of,
00:07:57.52\00:07:59.05
I mean what kind of
test can you take that would
00:07:59.32\00:08:02.13
show that there is
plaque buildup in this system.
00:08:02.16\00:08:05.96
Okay and this is
very good question because
00:08:05.99\00:08:08.08
a lot of people who
may be watching right now,
00:08:08.11\00:08:10.87
who have plaque
already built up in their
00:08:11.82\00:08:14.11
artery wall and don't even know
00:08:14.14\00:08:15.51
because it's a silent disease.
00:08:15.54\00:08:19.05
Okay, okay.
There are no symptoms
00:08:19.08\00:08:20.69
until a cardiovascular
event happens such as
00:08:20.72\00:08:23.82
heart attack and stroke,
therefore by that time in
00:08:23.85\00:08:26.80
most cases, a lot
of cases it's too late,
00:08:26.83\00:08:29.19
it become very crippling,
so there are some tests.
00:08:29.55\00:08:32.48
There is one in particular,
that's the safest most
00:08:32.51\00:08:34.66
standard test to
determine the plaque in
00:08:34.69\00:08:36.71
artery wall, the
coronary arteries of the
00:08:36.74\00:08:38.95
heart, is the heart
scan, CT heart scan and that's
00:08:38.98\00:08:43.78
done there, several
facilities throughout the
00:08:43.81\00:08:46.57
country and there's
like sound waves and they
00:08:46.60\00:08:49.59
can tell whether or
not there is plaque in the
00:08:49.62\00:08:51.83
coronary arteries.
There's one test done
00:08:51.86\00:08:54.37
and you've done
this lifeline, a company
00:08:54.40\00:08:57.04
does testing as far as
plaque in different areas
00:08:57.07\00:09:00.52
as well, let's talk
about that too, honey.
00:09:00.55\00:09:02.09
Well, I know that,
all those versions,
00:09:02.12\00:09:04.67
I know that he did
one actually on my neck.
00:09:04.70\00:09:07.30
You did at carotid artery.
00:09:07.33\00:09:08.70
He did the other
one in aorta area.
00:09:08.80\00:09:11.03
And then they did
the leg. That's right.
00:09:11.15\00:09:12.80
And praise God, praise God,
00:09:12.83\00:09:14.55
everything came out really well.
00:09:14.58\00:09:15.95
They, that group
comes around now and then in
00:09:16.80\00:09:19.06
almost any
community, you can tell they're
00:09:19.09\00:09:21.04
coming in and the
price to have it done is not
00:09:21.07\00:09:23.57
that expensive,
yeah, very good, comparing
00:09:23.60\00:09:25.61
to going to the
hospital having to do that.
00:09:25.64\00:09:27.01
Yeah, the American
Heart Association has a
00:09:27.04\00:09:28.50
Physician's Statement
as far as testing plaque,
00:09:28.53\00:09:31.61
and let's go to the
statement at this time.
00:09:32.01\00:09:33.50
It says here, the
American Heart Association's
00:09:34.20\00:09:36.13
Physician's
Statement, the majority of
00:09:36.16\00:09:38.62
published studies
have reported that coronary
00:09:38.65\00:09:41.87
calcium plaque
predicts coronary disease events
00:09:41.90\00:09:45.64
beyond standard risk factors.
00:09:45.67\00:09:49.42
Let me explain what that means.
00:09:49.45\00:09:50.82
Standard risk factors
is such as monitoring or
00:09:51.27\00:09:54.46
determining your
cholesterol, okay,
00:09:54.49\00:09:56.32
your blood pressure,
those are standard risk
00:09:56.77\00:09:58.61
factors, Doppler machine okay,
00:09:58.64\00:10:00.71
but determining
the calcium in a plaque
00:10:01.28\00:10:04.96
because a lot of the
plaque is made up of calcium.
00:10:04.99\00:10:08.23
So, when they
determine the amount
00:10:08.68\00:10:10.05
of calcium, they
also can determine the
00:10:10.08\00:10:12.31
amount of plaque
in the artery wall,
00:10:12.34\00:10:14.00
that's why they say
that test done with the heart
00:10:14.49\00:10:17.40
scan, CT heart scan,
one of the best tests
00:10:17.43\00:10:19.72
available to
determine the plaque in the
00:10:19.75\00:10:22.23
coronary arteries of the heart.
00:10:22.26\00:10:24.09
So, therefore that's
one good test we can use,
00:10:24.51\00:10:26.64
that way nothing
will sneak up on us 'cause
00:10:26.94\00:10:28.59
people maybe watching right now,
00:10:28.62\00:10:30.28
who may have plaque
in artery wall may be 80
00:10:30.77\00:10:33.41
or 90 percent clogged
and don't even know it.
00:10:33.44\00:10:35.94
We just met
somebody last week who had 3
00:10:36.63\00:10:39.50
arteries clogged 95
percent and don't even
00:10:39.53\00:10:42.13
know it, just walking around.
00:10:42.16\00:10:43.53
So just one
hamburger or French fries,
00:10:43.56\00:10:46.20
one meal can
tilt the scale and a
00:10:46.23\00:10:49.12
cardiovascular event
can happen at that time.
00:10:49.15\00:10:50.95
Well, this is also a
part of that preventive
00:10:50.98\00:10:52.42
medicine as well.
You know of having
00:10:52.45\00:10:54.22
that physical done
and, seeing exactly where
00:10:54.25\00:10:56.46
you stand ahead
of time, now you know
00:10:56.49\00:10:58.91
you talked about
that coronary. Yes.
00:10:58.94\00:11:00.74
Heart problem,
what about, is there
00:11:01.20\00:11:02.78
anywhere else where
an individual can have
00:11:02.84\00:11:05.55
problem with plaque buildup?
00:11:05.58\00:11:07.27
Absolutely, in the legs
particularly in the legs,
00:11:09.12\00:11:11.82
it can be anywhere
but when we call this
00:11:12.05\00:11:14.41
peripheral arterial disease,
00:11:14.65\00:11:17.68
for short PAD, alright.
00:11:17.97\00:11:20.53
And we have a
picture of that, see what PAD
00:11:20.87\00:11:23.56
looks like, of course on
the left, this is the leg
00:11:23.59\00:11:26.83
now, there's a nice blood flow
00:11:26.86\00:11:28.99
unobstructive of any
plaque at all but now on
00:11:29.30\00:11:32.88
the right side this
again in the legs we have that
00:11:32.91\00:11:35.75
plaque build up in the
artery there and so with
00:11:35.78\00:11:38.63
that in mind when
a person walks the
00:11:38.66\00:11:41.73
symptoms are leg
pain, pain in the thigh,
00:11:41.76\00:11:45.28
pain in the buttocks,
because the blood flow
00:11:45.67\00:11:48.80
is simply impede
because of the built up
00:11:48.83\00:11:50.93
plaque in the legs,
so it's very excruciating
00:11:51.13\00:11:53.97
and about one third
of people will have this
00:11:54.53\00:11:57.08
type of pain,
sometimes people don't have it,
00:11:57.11\00:12:00.67
but again if you
have pain in the legs by
00:12:00.84\00:12:03.96
walking and sometimes
it stops when you stop
00:12:03.99\00:12:06.21
walking the pain subsides,
00:12:06.24\00:12:07.83
normally you have
plaque also in your
00:12:08.16\00:12:09.72
coronary arteries as
well. So it kind of goes
00:12:09.75\00:12:12.30
hand in hand.
So but again it can
00:12:12.33\00:12:14.99
be anywhere in the
body but normally in
00:12:15.02\00:12:16.57
the legs as well and
we have some in our work
00:12:16.60\00:12:18.75
book, some
botanical medicine that people
00:12:18.78\00:12:21.36
can use to reduce
that leg pain when they're
00:12:21.39\00:12:25.09
trying to walk.
Okay, go over those
00:12:25.12\00:12:28.39
symptoms again, you
said, that you said, yeah,
00:12:28.42\00:12:30.64
pain in the legs,
pain in the thigh,
00:12:30.67\00:12:33.06
in the buttocks,
sometimes in the feet
00:12:33.90\00:12:36.14
and in the toes,
remember now there is
00:12:36.31\00:12:38.62
a lack of blood flow
going through legs as well.
00:12:38.65\00:12:40.73
So, therefore with
that in mind blood flow is
00:12:41.02\00:12:42.71
not going to reach
down to the toes as well so
00:12:42.74\00:12:44.99
therefore and a
person is a diabetic,
00:12:45.02\00:12:46.97
it just makes it
objectionably very
00:12:47.31\00:12:50.50
difficult for blood
flow because you have also
00:12:50.53\00:12:53.40
the high blood
sugar which also causes
00:12:53.43\00:12:55.65
neuropathy, dating
of the nerves, alright,
00:12:56.38\00:13:00.01
so these are some,
now sometimes a lot of
00:13:00.04\00:13:03.38
people may not have
this symptom that's why
00:13:03.41\00:13:06.05
its good to have this
checked as well and this
00:13:06.52\00:13:08.98
one we are doing
that, you know September is
00:13:09.01\00:13:12.21
the PAD, Peripheral
Arterial Disease month,
00:13:12.24\00:13:15.10
awareness month,
and they have a company
00:13:15.28\00:13:18.12
called Legs For
Life, and A Society for
00:13:18.15\00:13:22.79
Interventional Radiology
have testing sometimes,
00:13:22.82\00:13:27.38
these testing's are
free and just go to website,
00:13:27.41\00:13:30.44
a Society for
Interventional Radiology,
00:13:30.95\00:13:33.92
go to the website,
you see if any sites
00:13:33.95\00:13:35.98
in your area and a
lot of these times,
00:13:36.01\00:13:37.83
a lot of these sites
are free for testing any
00:13:37.86\00:13:40.49
Peripheral Arterial
Disease in the legs as well
00:13:41.51\00:13:44.20
and normally during
the month of September
00:13:44.46\00:13:46.88
because this is best September,
00:13:46.91\00:13:48.54
Awareness month for PAD.
00:13:48.57\00:13:49.94
Okay, I guess the
next question if you don't
00:13:50.79\00:13:53.40
take care of it,
if it goes unchecked,
00:13:53.43\00:13:55.74
what can happen? Well, naturally
00:13:56.10\00:13:59.18
of course is plaque
builds up on the artery
00:13:59.21\00:14:02.27
wall, it makes the artery
wall very stiff and rigid,
00:14:02.30\00:14:06.44
there by number one,
the blood pressure goes
00:14:07.01\00:14:09.33
up, blood pressure goes
up, there is more stress
00:14:09.36\00:14:12.78
on the kidneys,
blood pressure goes up,
00:14:12.81\00:14:15.43
there's more risk
of stroke because the
00:14:15.77\00:14:18.25
pressure against
the artery in the brain
00:14:18.28\00:14:20.57
creates tiny breaks in
the blood vessels of the
00:14:21.56\00:14:25.00
brain there by
you have a stroke.
00:14:25.03\00:14:26.92
So, with that in mind
there is a picture of a
00:14:27.78\00:14:31.14
plaque rupturing.
Let's look at this picture
00:14:31.41\00:14:34.69
at this time so again
you have a plaque on both
00:14:34.72\00:14:37.51
sides of the artery
wall and with that in mind
00:14:37.54\00:14:40.47
sometimes some
plaques are vulnerable,
00:14:40.50\00:14:42.53
meaning that they
more prone to a rupture
00:14:42.82\00:14:45.91
and when they rupture
they're going to rupture
00:14:46.43\00:14:48.16
a blood clot, now
blood clot forms which will
00:14:48.19\00:14:52.53
include any blood flow.
So, of course if there is
00:14:52.56\00:14:55.62
a coronary artery then
of course you will have
00:14:55.65\00:14:57.45
a stroke, the
coronary arteries you going to
00:14:57.48\00:14:59.37
have a heart
attack, when a leg of course
00:14:59.40\00:15:01.65
you will have a
server case of claudication,
00:15:01.68\00:15:04.55
which is very severe a
leg pain is what it is?
00:15:04.58\00:15:07.60
Okay. And so with
that in mind becoming
00:15:07.63\00:15:09.96
unchecked then this
very serious promises
00:15:09.99\00:15:12.47
with that and again a
lot of people are walking
00:15:12.50\00:15:14.84
around with PAD,
Peripheral Arterial
00:15:14.87\00:15:18.10
Disease, eight
million people and don't even
00:15:18.13\00:15:21.85
know it, because two
thirds do not have any
00:15:21.88\00:15:24.46
symptoms, that's why
its good to have this
00:15:24.49\00:15:26.41
check and normally
as we get older we have
00:15:26.44\00:15:28.73
these type of diseases
in the coronaries or also in
00:15:28.76\00:15:32.63
our legs as well,
that's why it's very important
00:15:32.66\00:15:35.14
as far as this
plaque is attacking the body
00:15:35.17\00:15:40.02
and with that in mind
it doesn't have to be,
00:15:40.59\00:15:42.67
man's original
diet is what everybody,
00:15:43.98\00:15:47.43
well, you tell me
honey? Well you know I always
00:15:48.06\00:15:49.82
say this, when it
comes to trying to figure out
00:15:49.85\00:15:52.49
what the original diet
is, all we have to do is go
00:15:52.52\00:15:55.13
back to the very
first book of the Bible.
00:15:55.16\00:15:57.38
I've said it before in
our programs and I will say
00:15:57.81\00:15:59.64
it again, God put
everything in place
00:15:59.67\00:16:03.06
before he did his crowning act,
00:16:03.09\00:16:05.47
which was male and female and so
00:16:05.50\00:16:08.01
everything was in place in the
00:16:08.04\00:16:09.41
very first book of the Bible.
00:16:09.44\00:16:10.81
People say God doesn't
care about what we eat?
00:16:10.84\00:16:12.21
Yes he does, because
in the first book of the
00:16:12.24\00:16:13.83
Bible Genesis 1:29, and
that's grains and seeds,
00:16:13.86\00:16:16.74
they will be your
meat, your food, alright, and
00:16:16.77\00:16:19.46
then after sin of
course Genesis 3:18 which
00:16:19.49\00:16:22.45
God then allowed us
to have the vegetation.
00:16:22.48\00:16:25.06
That's the herbs that
feed, plant of the earth.
00:16:25.09\00:16:27.01
So you know once
again when we think
00:16:27.22\00:16:29.22
about it, if it wasn't
important he could have
00:16:29.25\00:16:30.71
put it in Psalms and
Revelation, that's true,
00:16:30.74\00:16:32.23
okay but he put it in
the first book of the Bible,
00:16:32.26\00:16:34.04
that is the manual,
that is the manual just like
00:16:34.07\00:16:37.16
trying to get I always
say this is a big joke,
00:16:37.19\00:16:39.88
that everybody thinks is
a joke, it's not really a
00:16:39.91\00:16:41.73
joke, but if Curtis
were to buy me a brand new
00:16:41.76\00:16:44.43
BMW pink, that's
my favorite color.
00:16:45.01\00:16:47.69
Okay, now wait a
minute, this is the self
00:16:47.72\00:16:49.73
supporting ministry though.
00:16:49.76\00:16:51.13
Once again God can do
anything without fail.
00:16:52.14\00:16:54.66
Well, that's true
too. So, get me a BMW,
00:16:54.69\00:16:57.10
and if he gives me
this car then I am going to
00:16:57.13\00:16:59.36
have to read the manual.
00:16:59.39\00:17:00.76
That's true. To know how to
00:17:00.79\00:17:02.16
operate it, and when
I need to put the gas in
00:17:02.19\00:17:03.56
and then get the oil
changed and everything
00:17:03.59\00:17:04.96
and so with that in
mind the manual becomes
00:17:04.99\00:17:06.89
very important to me
if I want to keep this car
00:17:06.92\00:17:09.49
and I want it to be
in good running order,
00:17:09.68\00:17:11.43
what the creator God
put in the first book of
00:17:11.76\00:17:14.04
the Bible, the original diet.
00:17:14.07\00:17:16.23
He put it there and it
is the manual, if you want
00:17:16.60\00:17:19.14
to know how to live
right? Read the word of God,
00:17:19.17\00:17:21.84
that's what I love
about that, okay God's love
00:17:21.87\00:17:24.03
letters to us, to
come straight out of the
00:17:24.06\00:17:25.67
world, all the mysteries,
all the things we need to
00:17:25.70\00:17:27.56
know to take care
of that body system.
00:17:27.59\00:17:29.63
Yes, yes. You know because after
00:17:29.66\00:17:31.12
all, the temple,
the body is the temple.
00:17:31.15\00:17:34.03
Yes, it is.
Where the Holy Spirit
00:17:34.06\00:17:35.43
dwells, we said Christ
is our personal savior,
00:17:35.46\00:17:37.49
that's where the
Spirit of God moves into
00:17:37.85\00:17:40.26
place and so therefore
we don't want to corrupt
00:17:40.29\00:17:42.55
or put things
into that body system
00:17:42.84\00:17:44.60
that is not good for
us. Yeah, and I think we
00:17:44.82\00:17:48.06
are right on the mark honey
00:17:48.09\00:17:49.46
because we have a sense of duty.
00:17:49.49\00:17:50.86
Yes. A sense of obligation,
First Corinthians 6:19
00:17:50.89\00:17:53.96
and 20 What?
Know ye not that your
00:17:53.99\00:17:56.05
body is the
temple of the Holy Ghost.
00:17:56.08\00:17:58.92
Ye not of your
own, you belong to God.
00:18:00.27\00:18:03.17
That's right, that's
right. Ye are bought with the
00:18:03.20\00:18:04.92
price of Jesus
shed blood. Yes, yes.
00:18:04.95\00:18:08.44
Therefore, as
someone says anytime you see
00:18:08.47\00:18:12.25
the word, therefore in
the Bible, there must be
00:18:12.28\00:18:15.65
therefore what?
Therefore glorify God
00:18:15.68\00:18:20.62
in your body which is God's.
00:18:21.08\00:18:22.45
And so with that in
mind we have a sense
00:18:22.68\00:18:24.05
of duty, a sense of
obligation to take care
00:18:24.08\00:18:25.60
of our body and not wait until a
00:18:25.63\00:18:27.87
cardiovascular event
happens but we need to
00:18:27.90\00:18:30.58
make some lifestyle adjustments,
00:18:30.61\00:18:32.97
lifetime modifications
and have certain tests
00:18:33.71\00:18:36.91
done, we should
have our blood pressure
00:18:36.94\00:18:38.75
in our head,
yeah, we should know our
00:18:39.09\00:18:41.31
cholesterol, we
should know our glucose,
00:18:41.34\00:18:43.93
those kind of
things, so therefore nothing
00:18:44.53\00:18:46.14
can sneak up on us,
or at least we can reduce
00:18:46.17\00:18:49.04
the risk of
something major sneaking up on
00:18:49.07\00:18:52.15
us because we have
these numbers we know
00:18:52.18\00:18:53.90
where we stand, so
that's what it's all about,
00:18:53.93\00:18:55.65
so its time we
go into the kitchen.
00:18:56.22\00:18:57.71
Yeah and we need to
take care of ourselves.
00:18:57.74\00:18:59.66
Yes, we do. The more mature we
00:18:59.69\00:19:01.68
become of age, the
more we need to really
00:19:01.71\00:19:03.96
check on
ourselves and make sure that
00:19:03.99\00:19:06.21
everything is going to
be alright, you know it
00:19:06.24\00:19:07.61
doesn't make sense
to raise you know have a
00:19:07.64\00:19:09.50
relationship your
marriage and have you
00:19:09.53\00:19:11.48
cheering in your
children, that's true,
00:19:11.51\00:19:13.09
and all that,
everybody grows up, everybody is
00:19:13.12\00:19:14.72
growing, you and
your husband are there and
00:19:14.75\00:19:16.12
then all of the sudden
you can't have a good time.
00:19:16.15\00:19:18.81
That's true. Okay, and you don't
00:19:18.84\00:19:20.21
have to, you know
if you are not married,
00:19:20.24\00:19:21.61
you need to take
care of yourself.
00:19:21.64\00:19:23.70
You need to take
care of yourself.
00:19:23.73\00:19:25.10
Now, in that kitchen, talk
about taking care yourself.
00:19:25.16\00:19:27.85
We are going to
be doing a recipe,
