00:01:04.29\00:01:07.20
the great American
Health Care Crisis.
00:01:07.23\00:01:11.87
Welcome today to
The Carter Report.
00:01:11.90\00:01:17.51
Greater Manila is
more than 20 million souls.
00:01:17.54\00:01:20.88
Almost all these
beautiful people are ignorant
00:01:20.91\00:01:23.55
of the true Gospel of Christ.
00:01:23.58\00:01:25.71
Manila needs Jesus.
00:01:25.75\00:01:27.75
Thirty five years ago,
John Carter came to Manila.
00:01:27.78\00:01:31.25
Pastor Carter is
returning to Manila
00:01:31.29\00:01:33.39
with an urgent assignment,
preach the Gospel of Christ
00:01:33.42\00:01:36.93
and the great
truths of the Bible.
00:01:36.96\00:01:39.09
Don't water down the message.
00:01:39.13\00:01:41.10
Make it plain, make it
clear, make it Christ centered.
00:01:41.13\00:01:45.20

Welcome today, my
friend, to The Carter Report.
00:02:18.33\00:02:21.47
We're talking today about
00:02:21.50\00:02:23.17
the great
American Health Care Crisis
00:02:23.20\00:02:27.24
is something going on in America
00:02:27.28\00:02:29.74
that concerns every
man, woman, boy and girl.
00:02:29.78\00:02:35.48
And here to talk about it
is world famous scientist,
00:02:35.52\00:02:39.05
health scientist,
Dr. John Westerdahl.
00:02:39.09\00:02:42.12
Welcome, Doctor.
00:02:42.16\00:02:43.49
Thank you, Pastor Carter,
great being with you today.
00:02:43.53\00:02:45.49
We're so glad to
have you with us.
00:02:45.53\00:02:47.70
You've got a PhD in
health care from Loma Linda?
00:02:47.73\00:02:51.30
Yes, I'm a graduate of
Loma Linda University School
00:02:51.33\00:02:53.50
of Public Health and...
00:02:53.54\00:02:54.87
And you got a
stack of other degrees.
00:02:54.90\00:02:56.64
I'm registered
dietitian, nutritionist
00:02:56.67\00:02:58.77
and certified
nutrition specialist
00:02:58.81\00:03:00.34
and areas in
nutrition and health education.
00:03:00.38\00:03:02.68
And people know
about you around the world.
00:03:02.71\00:03:05.81
Now, tell me about the
American healthcare crisis.
00:03:05.85\00:03:10.29
Is there a healthcare crisis?
00:03:10.32\00:03:12.05
We have a major
healthcare crisis today.
00:03:12.09\00:03:14.89
In fact, you know,
00:03:14.92\00:03:16.26
all these
politicians are talking about
00:03:16.29\00:03:17.63
cheaper drugs
and cheaper surgeries
00:03:17.66\00:03:19.69
and cheaper insurances.
00:03:19.73\00:03:21.43
That's not the
problem, the problem is...
00:03:21.46\00:03:23.06
Not the problem.
00:03:23.10\00:03:24.43
The real problem is
the way people are living
00:03:24.47\00:03:26.63
and it's killing us
the American lifestyle.
00:03:26.67\00:03:29.64
So can I tell you
just a little observation?
00:03:29.67\00:03:33.44
Yes.
00:03:33.48\00:03:34.81
I don't look at
a lot of television
00:03:34.84\00:03:36.18
because I don't wanna
get brainwashed by the stuff.
00:03:36.21\00:03:39.11
But when I turn on television,
most of the ads seem to be
00:03:39.15\00:03:42.72
from the pharmaceuticals...
00:03:42.75\00:03:44.89
Yeah. Or from the
fast food industry.
00:03:44.92\00:03:48.06
That's right.
00:03:48.09\00:03:49.42
And it seems to this person,
00:03:49.46\00:03:51.43
that they tell
you how to get sick,
00:03:51.46\00:03:53.43
and then they try to tell
you how they're gonna fix you.
00:03:53.46\00:03:56.06
Well, that's a good
observation and you know,
00:03:56.10\00:03:58.63
the way we're
eating is killing us.
00:03:58.67\00:04:00.40
We're killing
ourselves with our knives,
00:04:00.44\00:04:02.10
spoons and forks.
00:04:02.14\00:04:03.47
In fact, here's the
statistics here as you see.
00:04:03.51\00:04:05.47
Heart disease is
our number one killer.
00:04:05.51\00:04:07.34
Cancer is our number one,
second leading cause of death,
00:04:07.38\00:04:11.08
and then the chronic
00:04:11.11\00:04:12.45
respiratory
diseases and so forth.
00:04:12.48\00:04:13.82
But you look at
these three main ones,
00:04:13.85\00:04:15.22
they're related
to the way we live,
00:04:15.25\00:04:18.25
and what are the causes
of these deaths in America?
00:04:18.29\00:04:21.59
Well, number one is poor
diet and physical inactivity.
00:04:21.62\00:04:25.79
We're eating the
wrong types of foods.
00:04:25.83\00:04:27.60
We're not active enough.
00:04:27.63\00:04:29.70
We're believing
the television ads.
00:04:29.73\00:04:31.80
That's right.
That's exactly right.
00:04:31.83\00:04:33.70
The bad foods.
00:04:33.74\00:04:35.10
We're addicted to
those. Yeah. Yeah, we are.
00:04:35.14\00:04:36.81
And then tobacco is number two,
00:04:36.84\00:04:38.57
and then you see
that these are things
00:04:38.61\00:04:41.58
that we are killing
ourselves through our lifestyle.
00:04:41.61\00:04:44.21
You know, 100 million Americans
00:04:44.25\00:04:46.51
have diabetes or pre-diabetes.
00:04:46.55\00:04:48.65
That's one in three.
00:04:48.68\00:04:50.02
That right.
00:04:50.05\00:04:51.39
And so that's
astounding, isn't it?
00:04:51.42\00:04:52.75
Seventy percent of
Americans are overweight
00:04:52.79\00:04:55.19
or obese and it's increasing.
00:04:55.22\00:04:56.93
Oops.
00:04:56.96\00:04:58.29
It's going up.
00:04:58.33\00:04:59.66
It's getting larger. Yeah.
00:04:59.69\00:05:01.03
And this is a sad picture.
00:05:01.06\00:05:02.40
It's a growing problem.
00:05:02.43\00:05:03.77
Yes, it's a growing problem.
00:05:03.80\00:05:05.13
So this is a sad
picture is that one out of three
00:05:05.17\00:05:06.90
American
children are overweight.
00:05:06.94\00:05:09.67
I hate to say this,
but it's child abuse
00:05:09.70\00:05:12.21
the way that many
parents are feeding their kids.
00:05:12.24\00:05:15.28
In fact, there's so
many problems going on
00:05:15.31\00:05:18.65
with our children's health.
00:05:18.68\00:05:20.02
Now, 70 million
Americans have hypertension,
00:05:20.05\00:05:21.92
which is high blood pressure.
00:05:21.95\00:05:23.28
That's about one
in four. Yes, exactly.
00:05:23.32\00:05:26.52
At least. Exactly.
00:05:26.55\00:05:27.89
Yeah. Right.
00:05:27.92\00:05:29.32
And some other statistics here
and some other information too,
00:05:29.36\00:05:32.53
is that the US spends
more than $3 trillion a year
00:05:32.56\00:05:36.30
in healthcare costs.
00:05:36.33\00:05:37.67
We could prevent and reduce this
00:05:37.70\00:05:39.60
if people would live
a healthier lifestyle.
00:05:39.63\00:05:41.97
Is it true?
00:05:42.00\00:05:43.34
Now, stomp me if I'm wrong.
00:05:43.37\00:05:45.67
Is it true that
we spend more money
00:05:45.71\00:05:48.88
on healthcare
00:05:48.91\00:05:50.28
than the rest of the
countries put together?
00:05:50.31\00:05:51.85
That's true.
00:05:51.88\00:05:53.21
And we're the worst
off. And we're the worst off.
00:05:53.25\00:05:54.95
In fact, you know
what's really sad is this is,
00:05:54.98\00:05:57.79
this year US is ranked 35th
healthiest nation in the world.
00:05:57.82\00:06:02.72
We are way down
the list in health.
00:06:02.76\00:06:05.09
Yet we have the most
00:06:05.13\00:06:06.46
modern healthcare
system in the world.
00:06:06.49\00:06:07.83
Yeah.
00:06:07.86\00:06:09.20
But we, and we have
all these technologies...
00:06:09.23\00:06:10.57
Great technology.
00:06:10.60\00:06:11.93
Great technology,
but we're unhealthy.
00:06:11.97\00:06:15.04
Number 35.
00:06:15.07\00:06:16.74
That means there's
another 34 countries
00:06:16.77\00:06:19.87
far better than
the United States.
00:06:19.91\00:06:21.81
Since places like
Italy and Asia countries...
00:06:21.84\00:06:24.95
And Singapore.
Singapore is healthier so far.
00:06:24.98\00:06:27.42
And Japan?
00:06:27.45\00:06:28.78
Exactly.
00:06:28.82\00:06:30.15
Japan is very healthy.
00:06:30.19\00:06:31.52
And they don't spend
the money like we spend it.
00:06:31.55\00:06:32.95
They don't.
00:06:32.99\00:06:34.32
And in our hospitals today,
70% of the hospital admissions
00:06:34.36\00:06:38.49
are diet and lifestyle related
00:06:38.53\00:06:41.00
and think about
that 70% of people
00:06:41.03\00:06:42.90
in those hospitals are there
00:06:42.93\00:06:44.40
because of their
diet and their lifestyle.
00:06:44.43\00:06:47.20
So people are
going into the hospitals
00:06:47.24\00:06:49.60
which are going broke
because of what they're eating
00:06:49.64\00:06:54.48
and what they're not eating
00:06:54.51\00:06:56.41
and because of
their lack of exercise.
00:06:56.44\00:06:58.68
Is that a valid observation?
00:06:58.71\00:07:00.05
That's right,
it's going to get worse
00:07:00.08\00:07:02.45
with the coming generations.
00:07:02.48\00:07:03.82
This is terrible.
00:07:03.85\00:07:05.19
In fact, our former
Surgeon General points out
00:07:05.22\00:07:07.56
that because of
the increasing obesity
00:07:07.59\00:07:10.06
that's going on
in our country today,
00:07:10.09\00:07:12.09
it is in this generation,
00:07:12.13\00:07:14.16
many parents will
outlive their own children.
00:07:14.20\00:07:19.27
In fact, we have
seven year old children
00:07:19.30\00:07:22.87
with adult onset diabetes.
00:07:22.90\00:07:25.11
I was talking to a
nurse the other day,
00:07:25.14\00:07:27.48
her son's 13 years old.
00:07:27.51\00:07:28.84
Now he eats
00:07:28.88\00:07:30.21
at all those
fast food restaurants.
00:07:30.25\00:07:31.58
The doctor said...
00:07:31.61\00:07:32.95
He's addicted,
isn't he? He's addicted.
00:07:32.98\00:07:34.32
But the doctor says
00:07:34.35\00:07:35.68
his arteries are
being clogged greatly.
00:07:35.72\00:07:37.05
How old is he? Thirteen.
00:07:37.09\00:07:38.55
So these young kids are
getting adult diseases today.
00:07:38.59\00:07:41.96
And it's a real tragedy.
00:07:41.99\00:07:43.32
And I have to say,
00:07:43.36\00:07:44.69
parents need to
take the responsibility
00:07:44.73\00:07:46.53
because they're killing
their own children by the way
00:07:46.56\00:07:49.53
they're feeding them.
00:07:49.56\00:07:51.17
And let me say
just a word to the...
00:07:51.20\00:07:53.84
our great
watching audience today,
00:07:53.87\00:07:55.77
a great viewing audience.
00:07:55.80\00:07:58.07
This is tremendously important.
00:07:58.11\00:08:00.01
Because this is about your kids
00:08:00.04\00:08:01.98
and my kids and my
grandkids, isn't this true?
00:08:02.01\00:08:04.28
That's right,
future generations.
00:08:04.31\00:08:05.78
I'm really... So
we're killing our kids?
00:08:05.81\00:08:07.68
We are. We're, it's very big.
00:08:07.72\00:08:09.82
It's really concerning today.
00:08:09.85\00:08:11.32
Because we're believing
all the junk on television.
00:08:11.35\00:08:14.42
Yeah.
00:08:14.46\00:08:15.79
And you think I'm
gonna keep my kids happy.
00:08:15.82\00:08:17.39
I'm gonna give them
00:08:17.43\00:08:18.76
all these rich
foods and all that,
00:08:18.79\00:08:20.13
but it's not
doing them any good.
00:08:20.16\00:08:21.50
They need to get
on a healthy diet.
00:08:21.53\00:08:22.86
Well, this is an
emergency, isn't it?
00:08:22.90\00:08:24.23
It is.
00:08:24.27\00:08:25.60
And this is the emergency
that 80% of chronic diseases
00:08:25.63\00:08:27.34
in the United
States can be prevented
00:08:27.37\00:08:29.77
through lifestyle and diet.
00:08:29.80\00:08:31.87
Now, that's good
news in showing that,
00:08:31.91\00:08:33.98
yes, we have this problem.
00:08:34.01\00:08:35.61
But if we have a
healthy diet and lifestyle,
00:08:35.64\00:08:38.11
we can reverse that trend.
00:08:38.15\00:08:39.75
Eighty percent
of these diseases?
00:08:39.78\00:08:41.58
Of these chronic diseases.
00:08:41.62\00:08:42.95
And, of course,
because of our bad lifestyle.
00:08:42.98\00:08:45.32
Exactly.
00:08:45.35\00:08:46.69
Well, it's time for
us to wake up, isn't it?
00:08:46.72\00:08:48.06
It is.
00:08:48.09\00:08:49.42
And realize that
we've been brainwashed.
00:08:49.46\00:08:53.09
That's right.
00:08:53.13\00:08:54.46
And through the brainwashing,
00:08:54.50\00:08:55.83
we have become
addicted to these foods.
00:08:55.86\00:08:58.33
We have.
00:08:58.37\00:08:59.70
And there is an answer to this,
00:08:59.73\00:09:01.10
and this is where the future
of medicine I believe is it,
00:09:01.14\00:09:03.77
is we can look at the
medicine of the 21st century.
00:09:03.81\00:09:06.37
The future of medicine,
is it gonna be in more drugs
00:09:06.41\00:09:09.14
and more technologies?
00:09:09.18\00:09:10.55
The future of medicine is
00:09:10.58\00:09:11.91
what we call lifestyle medicine.
00:09:11.95\00:09:13.52
This is the
evidence based healthcare
00:09:13.55\00:09:16.48
for the 21st century,
which integrates prevention
00:09:16.52\00:09:19.95
and also intervening
with healthy lifestyle
00:09:19.99\00:09:23.83
working in as
we're supposed to do
00:09:23.86\00:09:26.86
by taking care of our own body.
00:09:26.90\00:09:28.56
But that's
tough, isn't it? It is.
00:09:28.60\00:09:30.40
If you're
addicted, it's tough. It is.
00:09:30.43\00:09:32.83
And people get
addicted to fast foods
00:09:32.87\00:09:36.07
and junk foods in the same
way that people get addicted
00:09:36.10\00:09:39.64
to these awful
drugs like heroin.
00:09:39.67\00:09:43.58
That's right. This is true.
00:09:43.61\00:09:44.95
This is true.
00:09:44.98\00:09:46.31
You know, these sugar, fat,
00:09:46.35\00:09:47.68
salt combinations
do things to the brain
00:09:47.72\00:09:50.55
that react in
different parts of the brain
00:09:50.59\00:09:53.09
that are the same centers
00:09:53.12\00:09:54.62
where people are
addicted to drugs.
00:09:54.66\00:09:56.19
And people need to wake up.
00:09:56.22\00:09:57.63
I'm saying this
to you, my friend.
00:09:57.66\00:09:58.99
We all need to wake
up, because the people
00:09:59.03\00:10:01.13
who put out these disgusting ads
00:10:01.16\00:10:04.20
that are poisoning the nation,
00:10:04.23\00:10:05.83
these people
don't care about you.
00:10:05.87\00:10:07.94
They care about their money.
00:10:07.97\00:10:10.31
That's right. So
it's driven by money.
00:10:10.34\00:10:13.41
Now, tell me about,
00:10:13.44\00:10:15.34
you're a world
famous healthcare provider,
00:10:15.38\00:10:19.98
preventative medicine,
which is the cutting edge.
00:10:20.02\00:10:23.95
What is the greatest book
in the world that talks about
00:10:23.99\00:10:26.99
preventative medicine?
00:10:27.02\00:10:28.36
Well, as a Christian
and my study of the Bible...
00:10:28.39\00:10:30.79
And you are a Christian?
00:10:30.83\00:10:32.16
I'm a Christian, I'm
a Christian scientist,
00:10:32.19\00:10:34.23
a health scientist.
00:10:34.26\00:10:35.60
And I believe
that the greatest book
00:10:35.63\00:10:38.00
ever written on
preventive medicine
00:10:38.03\00:10:40.50
is the Holy Bible.
00:10:40.54\00:10:41.87
Now this would work for
people who are atheists too.
00:10:41.90\00:10:44.71
It works. That's right.
00:10:44.74\00:10:46.57
So this book,
which we call the Bible,
00:10:46.61\00:10:49.51
is written for every person.
00:10:49.54\00:10:51.78
It is, it talks about nutrition,
00:10:51.81\00:10:53.48
it talks about health,
00:10:53.52\00:10:54.85
it talks about
stress management,
00:10:54.88\00:10:56.42
there's dietary
principles in there
00:10:56.45\00:10:58.25
that can save our lives.
00:10:58.29\00:10:59.62
But, you know, I believe you
00:10:59.65\00:11:00.99
but a lot of people are
going to say that's a...
00:11:01.02\00:11:03.09
that's a long
stretch you pushing it,
00:11:03.12\00:11:05.03
you know to say that this book,
00:11:05.06\00:11:06.63
written thousands of years ago,
00:11:06.66\00:11:08.93
can help us here
in America today.
00:11:08.96\00:11:12.00
Well, what did
Jesus say right up there?
00:11:12.03\00:11:14.34
Well, he said,
00:11:14.37\00:11:15.70
"I have come that
they might have life,
00:11:15.74\00:11:18.67
and that they might have it
00:11:18.71\00:11:20.04
more abundantly or to the full."
00:11:20.08\00:11:22.41
That's in John
10:10. That's right.
00:11:22.44\00:11:25.35
And that's what,
that's why He came.
00:11:25.38\00:11:27.58
And Jesus was the first person
of all religion, traditions.
00:11:27.62\00:11:32.85
Jesus was the first
person that referred,
00:11:32.89\00:11:35.46
"He spake of the
temple of his body."
00:11:35.49\00:11:38.46
He's the first
person to have that
00:11:38.49\00:11:39.93
body temple philosophy.
00:11:39.96\00:11:41.70
Now, this is an
amazing concept, isn't it?
00:11:41.73\00:11:43.50
It is.
00:11:43.53\00:11:45.13
I mean, this is a
concept for every person,
00:11:45.17\00:11:47.64
atheists and callithumpians
and everybody that
00:11:47.67\00:11:51.74
the body is something sacred.
00:11:51.77\00:11:54.68
It is the place
00:11:54.71\00:11:56.04
for the indwelling of the Spirit
00:11:56.08\00:11:57.98
of the Almighty God.
00:11:58.01\00:11:59.35
And the Apostle Paul
elaborated on what Jesus said.
00:11:59.38\00:12:01.62
What did he say there?
00:12:01.65\00:12:02.98
He says, he says,
"The temple of, this human,
00:12:03.02\00:12:08.19
This temple is holy,
which temple you are."
00:12:08.22\00:12:10.89
Right.
00:12:10.93\00:12:12.26
And 1 Corinthians says,
"You are bought with a price
00:12:12.29\00:12:14.43
therefore
glorify God in your body,
00:12:14.46\00:12:17.30
and in your
spirit, which are God's."
00:12:17.33\00:12:19.77
Now, as you know, Doctor,
00:12:19.80\00:12:22.94
some of the Greek philosophers
thousands of years ago
00:12:22.97\00:12:26.11
spoke about the body in
a rather disparaging way.
00:12:26.14\00:12:29.11
They said, the body was a shell.
00:12:29.14\00:12:31.45
And inside there was
something which was good,
00:12:31.48\00:12:33.38
which was the immortal soul.
00:12:33.42\00:12:35.58
But the shell
itself was released
00:12:35.62\00:12:37.45
just a disgusting thing.
00:12:37.49\00:12:39.05
And the sooner you
got rid of it, the better.
00:12:39.09\00:12:41.52
But you know, and I know
00:12:41.56\00:12:42.92
that the Bible teaches
and Jesus Christ taught
00:12:42.96\00:12:45.39
that the body was
the temple of God,
00:12:45.43\00:12:47.73
therefore the
body is a sanctuary.
00:12:47.76\00:12:50.00
That's right.
00:12:50.03\00:12:51.37
And it's
interesting, the Apostle Paul
00:12:51.40\00:12:52.73
went on to say that
even what we eat or drink
00:12:52.77\00:12:56.24
is a major factor.
00:12:56.27\00:12:57.61
He said, whether
therefore you eat or drink
00:12:57.64\00:13:00.08
or whatsoever you do,
do all to the glory of God.
00:13:00.11\00:13:03.88
And I think that
if a lot of Christians
00:13:03.91\00:13:05.25
thought about that
00:13:05.28\00:13:06.61
as they sat down with their meal
00:13:06.65\00:13:07.98
and ask that question,
00:13:08.02\00:13:09.35
"Is this food for my temple,
00:13:09.38\00:13:11.89
is this to the
glory of God eating this,
00:13:11.92\00:13:13.49
or is this for my
own satisfaction?"
00:13:13.52\00:13:15.62
Or is it
because of my addiction?
00:13:15.66\00:13:17.26
And my addiction
to certain foods.
00:13:17.29\00:13:19.03
Because I can't
do anything else.
00:13:19.06\00:13:20.73
That's right. And bad food.
00:13:20.76\00:13:22.66
Pardon my saying this, bad
food leads to bad thinking.
00:13:22.70\00:13:25.83
It does.
00:13:25.87\00:13:27.20
Yeah, because the
cells of the brain
00:13:27.24\00:13:29.60
become so clogged
that people are open
00:13:29.64\00:13:32.67
to all sorts of deceptions.
00:13:32.71\00:13:35.31
Now, okay, we have
come to the conclusion
00:13:35.34\00:13:38.58
that the body is
not a throwaway thing,
00:13:38.61\00:13:40.52
but the body is the very
temple of the living God.
00:13:40.55\00:13:44.89
How should we
care for this body?
00:13:44.92\00:13:46.92
We need to take good care
of what we eat, our lifestyle,
00:13:46.96\00:13:51.13
and there's one scripture
00:13:51.16\00:13:52.49
there in
Proverbs that points out,
00:13:52.53\00:13:54.00
"The curse
causeless shall not come."
00:13:54.03\00:13:56.30
In other words,
00:13:56.33\00:13:57.67
disease does not
come without a con.
00:13:57.70\00:13:59.53
Let me read it and I want you to
00:13:59.57\00:14:01.57
explain it a bit more too.
00:14:01.60\00:14:02.94
Because this is a
little complicated,
00:14:02.97\00:14:04.97
"The curse
causeless shall not come."
00:14:05.01\00:14:08.18
Proverbs 26:2,
00:14:08.21\00:14:09.54
"The curse
causeless shall not come."
00:14:09.58\00:14:11.75
What does that mean?
00:14:11.78\00:14:13.11
It means that disease
does not come without a cause.
00:14:13.15\00:14:16.89
There's a reason
why we become ill.
00:14:16.92\00:14:18.55
Cause and
effect. Cause and effect.
00:14:18.59\00:14:20.76
So the way we're living,
00:14:20.79\00:14:23.59
if we bring these
diseases upon ourselves...
00:14:23.63\00:14:26.06
And with most
people you said before,
00:14:26.09\00:14:27.96
70% of Americans
are sick because...
00:14:28.00\00:14:31.00
And they're in the
hospital because of their diet.
00:14:31.03\00:14:32.37
And going to
hospital not because
00:14:32.40\00:14:34.77
they've been run over by
00:14:34.80\00:14:36.14
some crazy person on
the road, but because of
00:14:36.17\00:14:39.81
what they eat and
their lack of exercise.
00:14:39.84\00:14:41.94
Now, I've been to
Egypt many, many times.
00:14:41.98\00:14:45.18
I love Egypt.
00:14:45.21\00:14:47.38
And I've got a picture
here of me with Dr. Hawass.
00:14:47.42\00:14:51.75
He's a famous
Egyptologist. Right.
00:14:51.79\00:14:54.46
Now I've seen
the mummies, I've...
00:14:54.49\00:14:57.23
You know, examined the mummies.
00:14:57.26\00:14:59.13
I've been in the
Royal Mummy room.
00:14:59.16\00:15:02.30
Did the ancient
Egyptians have any diseases
00:15:02.33\00:15:04.73
like we have today?
00:15:04.77\00:15:06.20
They did.
00:15:06.23\00:15:07.57
In fact, there's a
scripture that we can read here,
00:15:07.60\00:15:11.17
that God speaking,
"If you listen carefully
00:15:11.21\00:15:14.48
to the voice of
the Lord your God
00:15:14.51\00:15:16.51
and do what is
right in his eyes,
00:15:16.54\00:15:19.11
if you pay
attention to his commands
00:15:19.15\00:15:21.12
and keep all his
decrees, I will not bring on you
00:15:21.15\00:15:24.82
any of the diseases I
brought on the Egyptians,
00:15:24.85\00:15:27.46
for I am the
Lord that heals you."
00:15:27.49\00:15:30.63
Yes, the Egyptians had
terrible health lifestyles
00:15:30.66\00:15:34.03
when it comes to
health and they suffered
00:15:34.06\00:15:35.66
many diseases.
00:15:35.70\00:15:37.03
Very unhealthy people.
00:15:37.07\00:15:38.40
Yes, they, we can
do paleopathologists.
00:15:38.43\00:15:40.50
That's a nice word.
00:15:40.54\00:15:41.87
These are scientists
who study the diseases
00:15:41.90\00:15:44.11
of ancient man.
00:15:44.14\00:15:45.47
They scanned the
mummies to find out,
00:15:45.51\00:15:46.84
what did they die have?
00:15:46.88\00:15:48.21
They died of heart
disease, cancer, stroke,
00:15:48.24\00:15:51.75
and they had arthritis.
00:15:51.78\00:15:53.18
So they had a lot of the
things that we have today.
00:15:53.21\00:15:56.28
Now that text in the
Bible says and God was speaking,
00:15:56.32\00:16:00.12
He said, "If you
obey My commandments."
00:16:00.16\00:16:02.16
Yes.
00:16:02.19\00:16:03.53
"You're not gonna
get these diseases."
00:16:03.56\00:16:04.89
That's right.
00:16:04.93\00:16:06.26
That's what you're
telling me today, isn't it?
00:16:06.29\00:16:07.63
Yes.
00:16:07.66\00:16:09.00
And there are
health laws that He's given
00:16:09.03\00:16:10.37
that are in the scriptures
we'll be talking about today.
00:16:10.40\00:16:11.73
And so the children of Israel,
00:16:11.77\00:16:13.10
we would call them
today, the Jewish people.
00:16:13.13\00:16:14.94
Right.
00:16:14.97\00:16:16.30
They had certain health
laws that would save them
00:16:16.34\00:16:19.51
from heart disease,
cancer, stroke and arthritis.
00:16:19.54\00:16:22.04
Is that correct? That's correct.
00:16:22.08\00:16:23.71
And in fact,
these are the diseases
00:16:23.75\00:16:25.31
that we have today as a result
00:16:25.35\00:16:27.78
of what I call the
Standard American Diet, SAD.
00:16:27.82\00:16:32.05
We have the heart
disease, cancer stroke,
00:16:32.09\00:16:33.76
we have the diseases
that many of these ancient...
00:16:33.79\00:16:35.62
Standard American Diet.
00:16:35.66\00:16:36.99
Standard American, SAD.
00:16:37.03\00:16:38.39
SAD.
00:16:38.43\00:16:39.76
And you can see here
00:16:39.79\00:16:41.43
of all this
rich eating you know,
00:16:41.46\00:16:43.53
the pharaohs ate
all that rich food,
00:16:43.57\00:16:45.57
they ate everything you name it.
00:16:45.60\00:16:47.67
The rich
American diet is causing
00:16:47.70\00:16:50.31
all these health problems.
00:16:50.34\00:16:51.67
These health
problems we see here
00:16:51.71\00:16:53.17
from the various types of cancer
00:16:53.21\00:16:54.54
to atherosclerosis
and stroke and so far.
00:16:54.58\00:16:56.44
Goodness.
00:16:56.48\00:16:57.81
They're related
to this rich diet
00:16:57.85\00:17:00.08
that we are eating
in our country today.
00:17:00.12\00:17:01.92
And so, God said
to the Jewish people
00:17:01.95\00:17:05.35
or all the children of Israel.
00:17:05.39\00:17:07.39
If you keep My commandments,
you're not gonna get
00:17:07.42\00:17:09.79
any of these
diseases as the Egyptians had.
00:17:09.82\00:17:12.56
That's right.
00:17:12.59\00:17:13.93
It's like, it says that in
the Pentateuch, doesn't it?
00:17:13.96\00:17:15.90
It says that, and definitely
you'll drastically reduce it.
00:17:15.93\00:17:19.33
You know, death is mostly
eat, E-A-T, you know, D-E-A-T-H.
00:17:19.37\00:17:24.24
And when we look at the
leading causes of death,
00:17:24.27\00:17:26.94
as we saw
previously, diet, and of course,
00:17:26.98\00:17:30.48
physical activity
are the key parts of
00:17:30.51\00:17:33.08
our dying today.
00:17:33.11\00:17:34.52
Now, I wanna say
something to all my friends
00:17:34.55\00:17:36.25
watching this on television.
00:17:36.28\00:17:37.79
God tells you these things,
not because He's mad with you,
00:17:37.82\00:17:40.79
but because He loves you.
00:17:40.82\00:17:42.72
You hear what
I'm saying, friend?
00:17:42.76\00:17:44.09
God loves you.
00:17:44.13\00:17:45.46
He wants you to
be a very best, good,
00:17:45.49\00:17:46.86
and He doesn't
want you to have cancer
00:17:46.90\00:17:48.30
and heart disease and
all these other diseases.
00:17:48.33\00:17:50.80
And He's put in His book
certain truths, and laws,
00:17:50.83\00:17:56.34
and commandments,
so that we can be happy
00:17:56.37\00:17:59.27
and live life to the fullest.
00:17:59.31\00:18:00.64
Is that correct,
Doctor? That's right.
00:18:00.68\00:18:02.01
And we got to not eat
like kings and queens today,
00:18:02.04\00:18:04.58
you know, whether it's
Burger King or Dairy Queen.
00:18:04.61\00:18:07.15
We eat like the
royalty, three meals a day,
00:18:07.18\00:18:11.22
we eat all these rich foods.
00:18:11.25\00:18:12.59
And that's the problem
we need to get back to that
00:18:12.62\00:18:14.82
simple diet that
God has talked about.
00:18:14.86\00:18:18.49
Yeah. And you know that diet.
00:18:18.53\00:18:19.86
You know what it is.
00:18:19.89\00:18:21.23
I know, we're gonna
talk about that today.
00:18:21.26\00:18:22.60
You gonna tell
us, you gonna help us.
00:18:22.63\00:18:23.97
You know, even Hippocrates,
00:18:24.00\00:18:25.33
the father of
medicine, made this statement.
00:18:25.37\00:18:27.10
"Let food be thy medicine
and medicine be thy food."
00:18:27.14\00:18:30.57
In other words,
00:18:30.61\00:18:31.94
when you think of
the cultures of the world
00:18:31.97\00:18:33.61
before there was
medicine, there was food.
00:18:33.64\00:18:37.05
They always look at
food, yes, is nourishing,
00:18:37.08\00:18:39.48
but it was also
medicinal, and we need,
00:18:39.51\00:18:42.48
I tell people when you
need to eat your medicine
00:18:42.52\00:18:44.65
and that's
eating a healthy diet.
00:18:44.69\00:18:46.12
Okay, here's a
big question, Doctor.
00:18:46.15\00:18:49.06
What are some of
the dietary health laws
00:18:49.09\00:18:51.63
mentioned in the
Bible that can save us
00:18:51.66\00:18:54.80
from the diseases of
the ancient Egyptians
00:18:54.83\00:18:58.23
and that can keep
us out of hospitals?
00:18:58.27\00:19:00.87
Well, the mosaic health
flaws, or you find in Leviticus
00:19:00.90\00:19:05.34
you find these dietary
laws and one of the biggest ones
00:19:05.37\00:19:08.31
that I see is
our biggest problem
00:19:08.34\00:19:09.84
in America today
00:19:09.88\00:19:11.21
and it was a
problem in those days,
00:19:11.25\00:19:12.78
is looking to Leviticus,
00:19:12.81\00:19:14.22
these are some of
the different verses.
00:19:14.25\00:19:15.58
Can I read the text? Yes.
00:19:15.62\00:19:17.02
Leviticus what is it, 7?
00:19:17.05\00:19:18.99
7:26...
00:19:19.02\00:19:20.52
Okay, let me see if I can find,
00:19:20.56\00:19:22.32
Leviticus 7:26,
is that what it is?
00:19:22.36\00:19:27.43
Here it is.
00:19:27.46\00:19:28.93
God says,
"Moreover you shall not eat
00:19:28.96\00:19:31.17
any blood in any
of your dwellings,
00:19:31.20\00:19:34.64
whether a bird or beast."
00:19:34.67\00:19:37.21
What's that telling about?
00:19:37.24\00:19:38.77
Not eating the
blood of those animals.
00:19:38.81\00:19:40.64
In fact,
there's other scriptures
00:19:40.68\00:19:42.01
in Leviticus that's
talking about the fat,
00:19:42.04\00:19:44.01
so in these health
laws, it says that we must,
00:19:44.05\00:19:47.72
there we go.
00:19:47.75\00:19:49.08
Here's another
one... Leviticus 3:17.
00:19:49.12\00:19:50.45
Let me get at it, so I know that
00:19:50.49\00:19:51.85
I'm getting the right
text and you're not just
00:19:51.89\00:19:53.99
putting that up on the screen,
00:19:54.02\00:19:55.36
pardon me.
00:19:55.39\00:19:57.56
"This shall be a
perpetual statute
00:19:57.59\00:20:00.53
throughout your generations
in all your dwellings,
00:20:00.56\00:20:03.90
you shall eat
neither fat `nor blood."
00:20:03.93\00:20:07.17
That's right.
00:20:07.20\00:20:08.54
God says, "Don't eat
fat, don't eat blood."
00:20:08.57\00:20:10.04
What does that mean?
00:20:10.07\00:20:11.41
And you know what's
very interesting about that,
00:20:11.44\00:20:12.84
is when you eat meat,
00:20:12.87\00:20:14.21
you're eating
saturated animal fat
00:20:14.24\00:20:16.04
and you're eating the blood.
00:20:16.08\00:20:17.41
Those are the two
disease components...
00:20:17.45\00:20:19.58
Isn't that good for
you? They're found in meat.
00:20:19.61\00:20:21.72
It's not in fact...
00:20:21.75\00:20:23.08
I heard a guy the
other day on radio saying,
00:20:23.12\00:20:26.59
"He can't live
without a porterhouse steak."
00:20:26.62\00:20:29.02
Oh, yeah, sure,
he's selling it, right?
00:20:29.06\00:20:30.39
Yeah.
00:20:30.43\00:20:31.76
And he said, "A
pregnant woman can't survive
00:20:31.79\00:20:33.96
without a porterhouse steak."
00:20:34.00\00:20:35.40
He must be
selling this stuff, right?
00:20:35.43\00:20:37.13
That's right.
00:20:37.17\00:20:38.60
But God says,
00:20:38.63\00:20:40.10
"Don't eat blood
and don't eat fat."
00:20:40.14\00:20:42.40
Now listen, my friend.
00:20:42.44\00:20:43.97
This is the Word of God
and God wants to save you
00:20:44.01\00:20:47.11
because He loves you.
00:20:47.14\00:20:48.48
Tell me some more?
00:20:48.51\00:20:49.84
Well, you know,
it's really interesting
00:20:49.88\00:20:51.21
is Dr. Paul Dudley White
00:20:51.25\00:20:52.58
who is the founder of the
American Heart Association.
00:20:52.61\00:20:54.58
He was President
Eisenhower's physician,
00:20:54.62\00:20:57.52
when he had a
heart attack... Yeah.
00:20:57.55\00:20:59.25
He's considered the
father of modern cardiology,
00:20:59.29\00:21:02.82
preventive
cardiology, very smart.
00:21:02.86\00:21:05.16
But back, way back in 1955,
00:21:05.19\00:21:08.20
when doctors
didn't agree without,
00:21:08.23\00:21:09.76
you know, all this
stuff, he made this statement
00:21:09.80\00:21:12.53
which is very profound.
00:21:12.57\00:21:13.90
He spoke before the American
Medical Association Conference.
00:21:13.94\00:21:16.87
And he said, "It is conceivable
that a few years from now,
00:21:16.91\00:21:19.77
we medical men may
repeat to the citizens
00:21:19.81\00:21:21.88
of the United States of America,
00:21:21.91\00:21:23.58
the advice that
Moses was asked by God,
00:21:23.61\00:21:26.61
to present to the children
of Israel 3,000 years ago,
00:21:26.65\00:21:30.99
namely, that you
must eat no fat of the ox,
00:21:31.02\00:21:34.39
or the sheep or the goat,
00:21:34.42\00:21:35.89
you may use it in any other way,
00:21:35.92\00:21:38.03
but by no means eat it."
00:21:38.06\00:21:40.00
Now, Dr. Paul Dudley
White believed if Americans
00:21:40.03\00:21:43.60
followed these
dietary health laws
00:21:43.63\00:21:46.13
given by Moses about
not eating blood and fat
00:21:46.17\00:21:49.04
that we could virtually wipe out
00:21:49.07\00:21:50.91
heart disease in
the United States.
00:21:50.94\00:21:52.27
Amazing. Why don't people do it?
00:21:52.31\00:21:54.78
Because they're addicted to it.
00:21:54.81\00:21:56.14
They're addicted to
it... They really are, yes.
00:21:56.18\00:21:57.88
It's a cultural thing. Yes, yes.
00:21:57.91\00:21:59.25
We were raised that way.
00:21:59.28\00:22:00.62
Yeah, we've been brainwashed
by television and other stuff.
00:22:00.65\00:22:02.78
That's right.
00:22:02.82\00:22:04.15
And what Dr. White said was
very profound in those days,
00:22:04.19\00:22:07.52
not all the
doctors agree to that.
00:22:07.56\00:22:09.09
But today, his
prediction has come true
00:22:09.12\00:22:12.03
and we know that saturated fat
00:22:12.06\00:22:13.76
and cholesterol
promotes heart disease.
00:22:13.80\00:22:16.87
And where is saturated
fat basically come from?
00:22:16.90\00:22:19.47
Saturated fat comes
from animal products,
00:22:19.50\00:22:23.44
meat and cheese
and dairy products.
00:22:23.47\00:22:26.31
These are the fats
that promote heart disease.
00:22:26.34\00:22:29.64
Now, there's two individuals
that are Nobel Prize winners
00:22:29.68\00:22:33.85
for their research
00:22:33.88\00:22:35.22
in Cholesterol
Metabolism Research
00:22:35.25\00:22:37.95
that they got
the Nobel Prize for.
00:22:37.99\00:22:39.99
So they must be smart guys.
00:22:40.02\00:22:41.36
Very smart, they're brilliant,
Dr. Goldstein and Brown.
00:22:41.39\00:22:44.89
They show the relationship
with the LDL cholesterol
00:22:44.93\00:22:49.26
and how it's
metabolized in the body.
00:22:49.30\00:22:51.23
And their
research actually led to
00:22:51.27\00:22:52.70
a lot of the
cholesterol lowering medication.
00:22:52.73\00:22:54.17
The LDL, low-density?
00:22:54.20\00:22:55.54
LDL, low-density
lipoprotein cholesterol,
00:22:55.57\00:22:57.91
the bad cholesterol
that clogs the arteries.
00:22:57.94\00:22:59.94
Yeah, yeah.
00:22:59.97\00:23:01.31
Well, they said
based on their research,
00:23:01.34\00:23:04.21
that humans are not
designed to eat animal fat
00:23:04.25\00:23:08.08
and cholesterol,
00:23:08.12\00:23:09.62
that our bodies just
cannot handle all this.
00:23:09.65\00:23:11.79
Goodness.
00:23:11.82\00:23:13.15
And that's causing
all the heart disease.
00:23:13.19\00:23:14.52
Now, their research led to drugs
00:23:14.56\00:23:16.66
so you can eat
more of those things.
00:23:16.69\00:23:18.79
And take these drugs and
think that's gonna take it.
00:23:18.83\00:23:20.56
But if our
bodies are not designed,
00:23:20.60\00:23:22.76
if God didn't create us
to eat that type of diet,
00:23:22.80\00:23:25.43
then chances are we
should avoid those foods,
00:23:25.47\00:23:27.60
that's the whole thing.
00:23:27.64\00:23:28.97
So eat less fat, eat
less saturated animal fat.
00:23:29.00\00:23:33.11
That's right.
00:23:33.14\00:23:34.48
That's what all the nutrition
experts are saying today
00:23:34.51\00:23:36.68
and the cardiologist
today and we know that
00:23:36.71\00:23:38.95
that's true and
that's what the Bible said.
00:23:38.98\00:23:41.75
Don't eat those things. Yes.
00:23:41.78\00:23:43.12
And he said it three and
a half thousand years ago.
00:23:43.15\00:23:45.29
Yeah. Did you get that?
00:23:45.32\00:23:46.72
Bible said it three and
a half thousand years ago,
00:23:46.76\00:23:49.16
and the medical
profession is just catching up.
00:23:49.19\00:23:52.49
They are.
00:23:52.53\00:23:53.86
Yeah, now there's one pioneer...
00:23:53.90\00:23:55.23
Three and a half
thousand years ago.
00:23:55.26\00:23:56.60
There is one
pioneering physician
00:23:56.63\00:23:57.97
that has really proved this,
with working with patients,
00:23:58.00\00:24:00.64
his name is Dr. Dean Ornish.
00:24:00.67\00:24:02.64
He published the lifestyle
diet trial, heart trial,
00:24:02.67\00:24:06.57
and that was the most,
a very prestigious study.
00:24:06.61\00:24:09.74
And he showed that
by eating a healthy,
00:24:09.78\00:24:13.28
low fat vegetarian diet
00:24:13.31\00:24:15.08
that you can actually
reverse heart disease.
00:24:15.12\00:24:17.55
Those arteries can
get cleaner and clearer.
00:24:17.59\00:24:20.42
This is a bit
sensational, isn't it?
00:24:20.46\00:24:21.99
It's a bit
amazing. It's amazing.
00:24:22.02\00:24:23.73
Because doctors did
not always believe this.
00:24:23.76\00:24:25.69
They did not believe it.
00:24:25.73\00:24:27.06
And he's been
criticized too, they say,
00:24:27.10\00:24:28.80
"Well, if you wanna
be a vegetarian monk
00:24:28.83\00:24:30.87
or something, you
can lower your..."
00:24:30.90\00:24:32.73
Well, the thing
is, and they say think
00:24:32.77\00:24:35.14
it's drastic to eat this way
as a lot of cardiologists say.
00:24:35.17\00:24:37.67
He says, "What's more drastic
00:24:37.71\00:24:39.04
eating a
healthy plant based diet
00:24:39.07\00:24:40.81
or breaking open your chest
and doing quadruple bypass?
00:24:40.84\00:24:43.71
What's more drastic?" Yeah.
00:24:43.75\00:24:45.08
When are we gonna
get smart? That's right.
00:24:45.11\00:24:46.78
I mean, when are
we going to wake up?
00:24:46.82\00:24:48.18
When are we gonna say
enough is enough is enough.
00:24:48.22\00:24:52.39
I'm going to
take the words of God.
00:24:52.42\00:24:56.09
There's so many types of
diet, of diet out there today.
00:24:56.12\00:25:00.10
Just tell me a little
bit about them, please?
00:25:00.13\00:25:01.80
Well, you have, you
know, the high protein diets
00:25:01.83\00:25:04.27
that become popular.
00:25:04.30\00:25:05.63
The Dr. Atkins I'd
actually debated Dr. Atkins
00:25:05.67\00:25:08.27
twice on the radio.
00:25:08.30\00:25:09.64
Yeah.
00:25:09.67\00:25:11.01
And he was
pushing a high meat diet,
00:25:11.04\00:25:12.84
little
carbohydrates, and so forth.
00:25:12.87\00:25:16.18
And there's a South Beach diet,
00:25:16.21\00:25:17.55
the Keto diet,
these high protein diets
00:25:17.58\00:25:20.35
and a lot of
these diets are heavy
00:25:20.38\00:25:22.62
on animal products saturated.
00:25:22.65\00:25:24.22
fat And they don't use
much of the carbohydrates.
00:25:24.25\00:25:27.39
Of course, it's you wanna
stay from the bad carbohydrates.
00:25:27.42\00:25:29.79
Okay, before we run out of time
00:25:29.82\00:25:31.59
on this super
program, tell me this.
00:25:31.63\00:25:33.86
What is the best diet?
00:25:33.90\00:25:35.53
You know the best diet
as I've mentioned before,
00:25:35.56\00:25:37.67
the Bible is the best
book on preventive medicine,
00:25:37.70\00:25:39.93
you can go to the first
page of your book Bible,
00:25:39.97\00:25:42.34
Genesis 1:29.
00:25:42.37\00:25:44.07
Do you wanna read that?
00:25:44.11\00:25:45.44
"And God said, 'Behold,
00:25:45.47\00:25:46.81
I have given you
every herb bearing seed,
00:25:46.84\00:25:49.24
which is upon the
face of all the earth,
00:25:49.28\00:25:51.91
and every tree,
00:25:51.95\00:25:54.65
in the which is the
fruit of a tree yielding seed,
00:25:54.68\00:25:58.59
to you it shall be
for meat or food.'"
00:25:58.62\00:26:01.62
That's right. That
was the Garden of Eden.
00:26:01.66\00:26:03.86
So write this
down. What's this diet?
00:26:03.89\00:26:05.73
This is a whole
food plant based diet
00:26:05.76\00:26:09.26
that was the
original diet of man,
00:26:09.30\00:26:11.13
it was all plant foods,
00:26:11.17\00:26:12.87
the healthiest type
of diet you can be on.
00:26:12.90\00:26:15.30
And God intended man
to be on this diet forever
00:26:15.34\00:26:18.57
because it added to
their longevity and health.
00:26:18.61\00:26:21.48
I wanna get into something,
00:26:21.51\00:26:22.84
can I read you a
little statement?
00:26:22.88\00:26:24.21
Sure.
00:26:24.25\00:26:25.58
It says, famous
American said this,
00:26:25.61\00:26:27.48
"Grains, fruits, nuts,
00:26:27.52\00:26:29.65
and vegetables constitute
00:26:29.68\00:26:33.32
what was chosen
for us by our Creator.
00:26:33.36\00:26:36.83
These foods,
prepared in as simple
00:26:36.86\00:26:39.36
and natural a
manner as possible,
00:26:39.39\00:26:41.96
are the most
healthful and nourishing."
00:26:42.00\00:26:45.50
Please comment. That's right.
00:26:45.53\00:26:47.20
When you take these plant foods,
00:26:47.24\00:26:49.04
these are the
healthiest foods for our bodies.
00:26:49.07\00:26:52.87
We run efficiently on them. Yes.
00:26:52.91\00:26:55.68
And you can make these
foods in a simple manner
00:26:55.71\00:26:58.51
and they can be
very health promoting.
00:26:58.55\00:27:00.18
Now, we just got to move along
00:27:00.22\00:27:02.02
because we got so much material.
00:27:02.05\00:27:03.75
There was a young man
by the name of Daniel,
00:27:03.79\00:27:05.95
he had three friends
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
00:27:05.99\00:27:09.02
And in Daniel Chapter 1,
00:27:09.06\00:27:10.73
they were eating
all this junk food.
00:27:10.76\00:27:13.06
And God said, "I
wanna bless you."
00:27:13.09\00:27:16.67
Now what did God do?
00:27:16.70\00:27:18.10
What did He tell
him to do with Daniel...
00:27:18.13\00:27:20.37
He told them, they stayed
on God's original diet plan.
00:27:20.40\00:27:25.37
They didn't
want the king's diet.
00:27:25.41\00:27:27.31
Nebuchadnezzar
wanted to give them
00:27:27.34\00:27:29.01
all this unclean
meat and saturated fat
00:27:29.04\00:27:31.58
and wine and all that.
00:27:31.61\00:27:32.95
They said, "No, we,
00:27:32.98\00:27:35.65
put us on this
diet for 10 days."
00:27:35.68\00:27:39.09
And what happened to them?
00:27:39.12\00:27:40.46
And what
happened, they were wiser,
00:27:40.49\00:27:42.12
they were stronger,
they were healthier,
00:27:42.16\00:27:44.36
and that contributed to their...
00:27:44.39\00:27:46.03
And the Bible says,
they were 10 times better.
00:27:46.06\00:27:49.66
That's right.
00:27:49.70\00:27:51.03
