Hello and welcome to
From Sickness To Health.
00:00:01.96\00:00:04.10
I'm your host Rico Hill.
00:00:04.30\00:00:05.63
I'd like to begin today's
by quoting the Psalmist David.
00:00:05.70\00:00:09.54
In Psalm 100 verse 3 it says:
00:00:09.74\00:00:12.57
"Know ye that
the Lord He is God.
00:00:12.77\00:00:15.08
It is He that has made
us and not we ourselves.
00:00:15.28\00:00:18.38
We are His people and
the sheep of His pasture. "
00:00:18.58\00:00:22.08
You know what's so powerfully
encouraging about this text?
00:00:22.38\00:00:25.02
That if God made us He
knows everything about us.
00:00:25.42\00:00:28.82
What is best for our health.
The best time to go to bed.
00:00:29.12\00:00:32.23
The best time to even wake up.
00:00:32.63\00:00:34.10
Even what is
best to drink and eat.
00:00:34.30\00:00:36.90
That is so encouraging!
00:00:37.10\00:00:38.90
Yeah, I guess. Oh,
that doesn't encourage you?
00:00:39.10\00:00:41.30
You didn't hear
what I just said.
00:00:41.60\00:00:42.94
Let me recite the thing again.
00:00:42.97\00:00:44.31
No, look, I'm not up for debate,
especially not right now.
00:00:44.34\00:00:46.94
I am hungry! When I
get hungry I get grumpy.
00:00:47.14\00:00:51.15
I think I'm going
to get some fast food.
00:00:51.35\00:00:53.52
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Fast food?
00:00:53.72\00:00:55.65
Yeah. You know a quick burger;
some chicken; fries with no
00:00:55.85\00:00:58.42
ties. Food fast...
fast food. Ever heard of it?
00:00:58.62\00:01:00.82
OK, you definitely didn't
hear anything I just said.
00:01:01.02\00:01:03.19
"Know ye that
the Lord HE IS GOD.
00:01:03.59\00:01:07.40
It is He that has made
us and not we ourselves. "
00:01:07.60\00:01:10.90
Look... look at it this way:
00:01:11.20\00:01:12.53
if you had a Porsche
or a Mercedes Benz, OK?
00:01:12.83\00:01:15.60
would you put diesel fuel in it
00:01:16.30\00:01:18.41
when it called for
unleaded only? Absolutely not!
00:01:18.61\00:01:22.91
What about kerosene only?
00:01:23.11\00:01:24.45
No... we're talking about
a Porsche. I would not put
00:01:24.48\00:01:27.42
diesel or kerosene
in my blue Porsche.
00:01:27.62\00:01:30.55
Then why wouldn't you
put the best in your body?
00:01:30.75\00:01:33.22
That's a silly analogy.
00:01:33.42\00:01:35.12
Is it? Yes!
00:01:35.42\00:01:37.03
Look, why would you
take better care of your car
00:01:37.43\00:01:42.03
than your own body?
Why? Isn't it obvious?
00:01:42.23\00:01:45.13
Because it tastes
good. It tastes good, huh?
00:01:45.33\00:01:48.14
Look, today's
program is fast food.
00:01:48.54\00:01:52.34
Delicious fast food.
00:01:52.54\00:01:55.24
Roll the program.
00:01:55.64\00:01:57.45
Would you take better care
of your car than your body?
00:02:31.55\00:02:35.75
I hope not. Thank you for
joining us here in the studio
00:02:36.15\00:02:39.65
of From Sickness To Health.
00:02:39.85\00:02:41.19
I can't even tell you.
We're going to talk about
00:02:41.39\00:02:43.32
something today that is
really really helpful, exciting,
00:02:43.53\00:02:46.80
and I think
you're going to enjoy it.
00:02:47.00\00:02:48.36
I'm going to introduce my
guests in just a few moments.
00:02:48.66\00:02:51.10
We have a robust
discussion planned for today
00:02:51.30\00:02:55.10
so I know you're
going to enjoy. So sit back
00:02:55.30\00:02:57.27
and get ready, but first
let's say hello to our co-host,
00:02:57.47\00:03:00.68
Sickness, who is
at a remote location.
00:03:00.98\00:03:03.81
Where in the world are you?
00:03:04.01\00:03:06.38
Rico, today I'm at a place where
people's lives are celebrated.
00:03:06.78\00:03:12.12
These people were courageous
00:03:12.52\00:03:14.59
and they didn't want
to give up fast food...
00:03:14.79\00:03:16.99
so I'm
celebrating their lives today.
00:03:17.19\00:03:19.59
Well, I know you have
more to say about that.
00:03:19.79\00:03:22.20
We'll talk to you some
more at your next location...
00:03:22.60\00:03:25.13
but that's
interesting. If I'm not wrong,
00:03:25.33\00:03:29.60
that was a cemetery.
Now, we have joining us today
00:03:29.80\00:03:33.38
some familiar
friends and some new friends.
00:03:33.58\00:03:35.61
We've got with us
Dr. Thomas Jackson
00:03:35.81\00:03:37.81
who is a doctor of science...
natural health sciences...
00:03:38.01\00:03:42.05
and is the head of a
ministry called Meet Ministry
00:03:42.25\00:03:44.62
where they teach
gospel medical missionary work
00:03:44.82\00:03:48.22
and training. And we
welcome him to the program.
00:03:48.42\00:03:50.63
Thank you Rico. We
appreciate you being here.
00:03:50.83\00:03:52.99
And again as you always
say "your bride by your side. "
00:03:53.19\00:03:57.33
Dr. Laverne Jackson, who is a
doctor of nutritional sciences.
00:03:57.53\00:04:01.70
We welcome you to the
program as well. Thank you.
00:04:01.90\00:04:04.24
And you know what?
Today is couples day.
00:04:04.54\00:04:07.28
We've got two
couples on the program.
00:04:08.51\00:04:10.68
Also joining us is Reidland
Bredy, who is a physical
00:04:10.98\00:04:15.42
therapist. And he's joined by
his wife Sherry-Lynne Bredy, who
00:04:15.62\00:04:18.59
is an occupational therapist.
Welcome to both of you!
00:04:18.79\00:04:21.12
Thank you. So we're
talking about fast food today.
00:04:21.32\00:04:23.86
And I know you
all have a lot to say.
00:04:24.26\00:04:26.46
And you see that we kind of
started out at a cemetery. Yes.
00:04:26.86\00:04:30.77
Mercy! Is it appropriate? Oh my!
00:04:30.97\00:04:33.44
I think it speaks
volumes... obviously.
00:04:33.64\00:04:36.10
Sickness definitely
knows how to really impact.
00:04:36.50\00:04:40.44
You know, I think he sort
of comes off and he's sort of
00:04:40.94\00:04:44.71
counter health, but he
leads us down the path of truth
00:04:44.91\00:04:47.25
in some way, doesn't he?
00:04:47.45\00:04:48.78
Oh, he can't do nothing against
the truth but for the truth.
00:04:48.92\00:04:51.05
All right. So let's see
what he has for us as we
00:04:51.25\00:04:54.32
go into the discussion.
Let's check out where he is.
00:04:54.52\00:04:56.83
Where are you now?
00:04:57.03\00:04:58.36
Hey Rico! Here I am in
a kitchen of a fast food
00:05:02.03\00:05:05.17
restaurant. This is
where happiness is made.
00:05:05.37\00:05:08.97
You know what they do here?
They take some food and they
00:05:09.27\00:05:11.01
add sugar, salt,
and fat... and fry it!
00:05:11.21\00:05:14.34
And every time you fry
something it tastes good.
00:05:14.74\00:05:18.68
You can smell the goodness.
00:05:19.68\00:05:21.75
I love this place.
00:05:21.95\00:05:23.49
Mmm! They even have
sodas in a fountain.
00:05:26.62\00:05:30.29
A fountain of soda!
00:05:30.59\00:05:32.73
It's amazing.
You know what else?
00:05:33.13\00:05:34.76
When you leave
this place you're full
00:05:35.16\00:05:38.10
but your body is
starving for nutrition.
00:05:38.50\00:05:43.41
When your body is
starving for nutrition
00:05:43.71\00:05:46.57
that leads to sickness.
00:05:46.88\00:05:49.81
Did I hear my
name? I think I did
00:05:50.11\00:05:53.01
because every time you
go to a place like this
00:05:53.21\00:05:55.28
you're going to
hear about sickness.
00:05:55.48\00:05:57.79
Whoo! Sir... are
you going to order?
00:05:59.65\00:06:03.99
Oh yes sir. I will
take a heart attack
00:06:04.29\00:06:07.40
super sized, some
high blood pressure,
00:06:07.60\00:06:10.57
and a side of diabetes.
00:06:10.77\00:06:13.77
Hey, you know what?
Could I get the diet cola in
00:06:13.97\00:06:16.57
the bucket size?
Hey, you know what?
00:06:16.77\00:06:18.91
I know my way around. Why
don't I just get it myself?
00:06:19.11\00:06:21.51
Security! Security!
00:06:23.18\00:06:25.61
While that may be funny I
think it leads to some dire,
00:06:28.18\00:06:31.49
dire consequences,
doesn't it? Oh yes indeed.
00:06:31.69\00:06:34.29
So what is fast food?
Oh man! Anybody... jump in.
00:06:34.49\00:06:37.43
Quick. Fast food:
what is it? Quick.
00:06:37.63\00:06:38.96
Convenience food. You
know, there is a history behind
00:06:39.23\00:06:42.66
fast food... even though
it become more popularized
00:06:42.86\00:06:45.57
in the 1950's... but
we go back centuries.
00:06:45.77\00:06:49.00
Even pre-modern Europeans,
they had what they called
00:06:49.20\00:06:51.71
apartments. And then they had
what they called... they dipped
00:06:51.91\00:06:54.74
bread in wine and they provided
those people with quick meals.
00:06:54.94\00:06:59.15
So basically the
idea of fast food is not
00:06:59.35\00:07:01.98
a 21st century concept.
00:07:02.18\00:07:04.15
It's been around since
even the days of the Romans.
00:07:04.35\00:07:06.89
They would move
into the United Kingdom
00:07:07.09\00:07:09.06
and now into the United States.
00:07:09.26\00:07:10.96
And so we find as a history
there's nothing new under
00:07:11.16\00:07:13.86
the sun. Hmm...
nothing new under the sun.
00:07:14.06\00:07:16.03
I could even say
that we could go back to
00:07:16.23\00:07:18.47
what we see here in this
bowl because this is really
00:07:18.67\00:07:22.47
fast food. That's right. I
had one of these this morning.
00:07:22.67\00:07:25.34
It took me no time; it
was convenient; it was quick!
00:07:25.54\00:07:28.88
Yes. And it was
delicious! You want one?
00:07:29.08\00:07:30.78
High in nutrients. God
has provided fast food!
00:07:30.98\00:07:33.82
And I think it's important
to define what fast food is.
00:07:34.12\00:07:38.15
OK. Because of the
culture that we live in now,
00:07:38.35\00:07:41.79
we think of anything
that's quick and easy as fast.
00:07:41.99\00:07:44.59
And unfortunately, we are pro-
grammed to think any fast food
00:07:44.79\00:07:48.43
from a burger joint or
from, you know, anywhere else
00:07:48.63\00:07:50.83
that we can drive by, get
our things, and then go on
00:07:51.03\00:07:53.57
and keep moving on is fast food.
00:07:53.77\00:07:56.20
Whereas if we would just...
That's fast! This is fast.
00:07:56.50\00:07:59.91
I've got my meal right here
00:08:00.11\00:08:01.84
without... and Sickness
was on point: this is the most
00:08:02.14\00:08:05.55
truthful that I've
seen him on the program.
00:08:05.75\00:08:08.38
Ordered a side of
heart attack and diabetes!
00:08:08.58\00:08:10.92
This doesn't come with that.
00:08:11.12\00:08:12.95
Wow! He did
order... What was that?
00:08:13.15\00:08:16.22
A heart attack;
a side of diabetes.
00:08:16.42\00:08:19.53
Now how much truth is in that?
00:08:19.73\00:08:22.63
Whoo! Wow! Now I know
someone is watching this program
00:08:22.83\00:08:28.00
and they are saying:
"But you don't understand.
00:08:28.20\00:08:30.47
I've got kids.
I've got small ones
00:08:30.67\00:08:33.58
and they're hungry. I
pick them up from school;
00:08:33.78\00:08:35.34
I've had a long day
and I don't have time
00:08:35.54\00:08:38.01
to be preparing a
meal for them. " Um-hmm.
00:08:38.21\00:08:41.38
"So I just need to run
through that drive-through,
00:08:41.58\00:08:45.32
grab that food,
and feed my kids. "
00:08:45.52\00:08:47.82
Um-hmm... now how
do you answer that?
00:08:48.02\00:08:50.49
Well, as has been said
the word "fast food" does not
00:08:50.69\00:08:54.76
necessarily denote
something dangerous to me.
00:08:54.96\00:08:58.17
But when Sickness began to
talk about what he was ordering
00:08:58.37\00:09:01.90
fast... but what
consists of that fast food
00:09:02.10\00:09:06.61
is what makes it unhealthy.
00:09:06.81\00:09:08.74
And I think he
mentioned salt - um-hmm - sugar,
00:09:08.94\00:09:12.81
fat... yeah, fats...
high cholesterol things.
00:09:13.01\00:09:16.18
Where do we get
cholesterol from?
00:09:16.38\00:09:17.89
Can we get
cholesterol from an apple? No.
00:09:18.09\00:09:20.32
Can I get cholesterol from
that carrot right there? No.
00:09:20.52\00:09:23.16
Where do we get the cholesterol
from? Comes from what we call,
00:09:23.36\00:09:25.26
you know, non-plant
foods such as animal foods.
00:09:25.46\00:09:28.60
Flesh foods: that's where
you find the cholesterol. Right.
00:09:28.80\00:09:31.37
Carrots don't
give you cholesterol.
00:09:31.57\00:09:33.44
By the way, helps the body
to metabolize the cholesterol.
00:09:33.64\00:09:36.91
So these work with us and
work for us. That's right.
00:09:37.11\00:09:40.81
And maybe the "fast
food" is working against us.
00:09:41.11\00:09:45.68
That's correct. That's
why he was in the cemetery.
00:09:46.08\00:09:48.18
He was in the cemetery
because these kinds of food
00:09:49.38\00:09:55.12
lead to the major
causes of diseases today.
00:09:55.32\00:09:58.53
And so people are dying
because of heart conditions,
00:09:58.83\00:10:02.50
caused by high fat, high sodium.
00:10:02.70\00:10:05.23
You're looking at
cancer... can be contributed to
00:10:05.43\00:10:08.84
the kinds of food
choices we make also.
00:10:09.04\00:10:11.34
So death is 3/5
eat. You remove the D
00:10:11.54\00:10:16.51
and you remove the H and
you are digging your grave
00:10:16.71\00:10:18.95
with your teeth.
Whoa... whoa! Did you hear that?
00:10:19.15\00:10:22.55
Death is 3/5 eat.
00:10:24.05\00:10:26.86
Right in the
middle of death is eat.
00:10:27.06\00:10:30.06
That's heavy.
That's right. That's heavy.
00:10:30.36\00:10:32.49
So people are digging their
graves with a fork and spoon.
00:10:32.69\00:10:36.67
Oftentimes in the fast food
scenario with a plastic fork
00:10:36.87\00:10:42.24
and spoon. That's
right. Is that right?
00:10:42.44\00:10:44.21
Now fast food is
also considered junk food.
00:10:44.41\00:10:47.58
And we even use
the term so quickly now
00:10:47.74\00:10:49.88
we don't realize that.
It doesn't have a negative
00:10:50.08\00:10:52.81
connotation anymore.
"Oh, I want some junk food. "
00:10:53.01\00:10:55.22
No. What we call good is
now evil, and so that's why
00:10:55.42\00:10:59.25
it does not have a
negative connotation now. Yes.
00:10:59.45\00:11:02.49
And the Bible says that the time
would come when we would call
00:11:02.69\00:11:05.09
evil good and good evil.
That's right... that's right.
00:11:05.29\00:11:06.93
So that could even be applied to
our food choices. That's right.
00:11:07.13\00:11:10.50
God would consider them to be
evil and we consider them to be
00:11:10.70\00:11:14.87
good. Point in case:
God said: "Don't eat it
00:11:15.07\00:11:18.37
with the fat or the
blood. " Um-hmm. Now we eat it
00:11:18.57\00:11:22.81
with the fat and the blood
now. He didn't say you couldn't
00:11:23.01\00:11:25.65
eat it when He did give
permission for us to eat
00:11:25.85\00:11:27.82
flesh foods. He said:
"If you're going to have it,
00:11:28.02\00:11:30.32
have it without the
fat and without the blood
00:11:30.62\00:11:33.46
because the life of the
flesh is in the blood. "
00:11:33.66\00:11:36.49
Now I can tell you: I once work-
ed at a fast-food restaurant.
00:11:36.69\00:11:41.06
Yes I did! I worked
at a fast-food restaurant
00:11:41.26\00:11:44.07
when I was in high school.
I won't tell you the name
00:11:44.27\00:11:46.74
but I remember - and I was
eating that stuff at the time -
00:11:46.94\00:11:50.21
but I remember working
that grill. Oh how I hated it!
00:11:50.41\00:11:54.41
But I was working that grill
and I would watch as the blood
00:11:54.61\00:11:57.85
would come up out of
that meat. Oh, mercy!
00:11:58.05\00:12:00.38
And you would flip it
over to just sear that blood
00:12:00.58\00:12:05.59
into the meat itself. And
then it would have sort of a
00:12:05.89\00:12:08.92
fatty sort of
film over the top of it
00:12:09.12\00:12:12.19
or layer, and that's
what God was talking about.
00:12:12.39\00:12:15.00
So what's the problem with that?
00:12:15.20\00:12:16.53
Someone is saying that
right now. They're saying:
00:12:16.63\00:12:18.43
"It taste's good... " just like
Sickness said. That's right.
00:12:18.63\00:12:20.70
It tastes good. So
what's the problem with that?
00:12:20.90\00:12:22.24
We find that fat
definitely gives flavor.
00:12:22.27\00:12:24.14
It gives flavor. The
more blood the more flavor.
00:12:24.34\00:12:27.18
And notice you said
that when you flipped it over
00:12:27.48\00:12:30.41
it had a nice coating on that.
00:12:30.61\00:12:32.51
Just imagine! Now within
our body you know we have white
00:12:32.71\00:12:35.05
blood cells, red blood
cells, and we have platelets
00:12:35.25\00:12:37.19
that coagulate. And so we
find even that heat can create a
00:12:37.39\00:12:40.59
coagulation within that
meat that creates a film.
00:12:40.79\00:12:44.23
And number one, that
blood becomes so toxic
00:12:44.43\00:12:47.30
and we have - well,
we'll be talking about probably
00:12:47.50\00:12:49.36
in the future - we have
these little chemicals called
00:12:49.56\00:12:52.47
hydrocarbons, and that tends
to reduce the oxygen within
00:12:52.67\00:12:57.81
the body. We call it, you
know, oxidation of the cells.
00:12:58.01\00:13:02.18
And so we've changed
the whole chemical make-up
00:13:02.38\00:13:04.55
of fat. And so fat
doesn't carry any oxygen.
00:13:04.75\00:13:08.32
any nutrients. It
decreases oxygen...
00:13:08.52\00:13:11.05
therefore it has to taste
good. See, pleasure for a moment
00:13:11.25\00:13:13.79
definitely gives
us what Sickness was:
00:13:13.99\00:13:16.49
a celebration in our graves.
00:13:16.69\00:13:18.99
Oh, but we don't want to
have celebrations in our graves.
00:13:19.19\00:13:22.13
You know something? You
know I found out that 1/3
00:13:22.33\00:13:26.63
of the United States children
from the ages of 4 to 19
00:13:26.84\00:13:30.74
eat fast food. Um-hmm.
Every year they add extra pounds
00:13:32.51\00:13:37.25
so that every year
you're going to gain pounds.
00:13:37.45\00:13:38.78
So now we're dealing with an
epidemic of childhood obesity -
00:13:38.95\00:13:41.82
that's correct - that
predisposes us to diabetes...
00:13:42.02\00:13:45.32
which we are already in
an epidemic of diabetes.
00:13:45.52\00:13:47.66
So the danger of fast
food the way we eat today -
00:13:47.96\00:13:51.23
the way society is today -
00:13:51.43\00:13:52.76
is definitely
creating a future of economics
00:13:52.79\00:13:56.63
for the health...
for the disease industry.
00:13:56.83\00:14:00.24
There's a response from
Sickness. I'm sure he's got
00:14:04.04\00:14:06.88
an excellent point. Yes.
Yeah, the point I'd like to make
00:14:07.08\00:14:10.18
here is let's not demonize
kids for being overweight.
00:14:10.38\00:14:13.42
Skinny kids are unhealthy.
00:14:13.72\00:14:15.32
Overweight kids are very
healthy and fast food is easy.
00:14:15.52\00:14:20.16
So hey, let's not pretend
that eating healthy is some easy
00:14:20.36\00:14:23.22
thing. People have lives to live
00:14:23.43\00:14:25.36
so don't make it
difficult on them.
00:14:25.56\00:14:27.33
Yeah, I think... I know
you have a point to make.
00:14:27.73\00:14:30.17
I think there's
some more convincing.
00:14:30.37\00:14:32.33
Let's take a look
at a video real quick
00:14:32.53\00:14:34.57
and let's see what it
looks like and let's see what
00:14:34.77\00:14:37.11
conclusion this particular
documentary had come to
00:14:37.31\00:14:40.98
as a result of people...
well people... the result that
00:14:41.18\00:14:43.88
happened... Well
let me put it this way:
00:14:44.08\00:14:46.01
what happened to people
when they ate fast food.
00:14:46.21\00:14:48.18
Now for you all
when you see this video
00:14:51.85\00:14:54.82
you're going to be like
"ooh! " when you see the food.
00:14:55.02\00:14:56.79
But I know a lot of people
out there, they're going to
00:14:56.99\00:14:58.59
look at it and
they're going to think:
00:14:58.79\00:15:00.13
"Well, that looks good to me! "
00:15:00.16\00:15:01.93
But then, listen to
what is happening to people
00:15:02.13\00:15:05.03
as a result of this.
Let's take a look at the video.
00:15:05.23\00:15:06.90
So right after you eat
these meals you have energy,
00:15:14.94\00:15:18.21
but the energy lasts a
very short period of time
00:15:18.41\00:15:21.32
and you're hungry much sooner
00:15:21.52\00:15:23.79
and then you have to eat again
and then you have to eat again
00:15:23.99\00:15:26.25
and then you have to eat again.
It is a lot cheaper to go eat
00:15:26.45\00:15:29.46
fast food. I mean, definitely
you can buy a hamburger
00:15:29.66\00:15:33.36
for cheaper than
you can buy an apple.
00:15:33.56\00:15:35.00
That's very sad, because
you're telling me I have to
00:15:35.20\00:15:36.80
pay more in order to
eat healthier. And I can pay
00:15:37.00\00:15:39.20
less in order to get
fat... and it makes me worried
00:15:39.40\00:15:41.30
over something I might die over.
00:15:41.50\00:15:43.07
It's unbelievable. The
poor- est people in our country
00:15:43.37\00:15:46.07
are the fattest people.
We've done something completely
00:15:46.27\00:15:49.04
wrong here.
00:15:49.24\00:15:50.58
The high-fat, deep-fried
food culture here is delicious
00:15:53.58\00:15:56.45
but has deadly consequences.
00:15:56.75\00:15:58.49
Look at our diabetes
and high blood pressure
00:15:58.69\00:16:01.59
and heart disease...
like these are major killers.
00:16:01.79\00:16:05.39
Wendi O'Neal was
born in New Orleans.
00:16:05.59\00:16:07.40
"After Katrina, " she
says, "it's even more difficult
00:16:07.80\00:16:10.50
to access good food.
" It's definitely harder
00:16:10.70\00:16:12.97
and harder to make food
choices. I mean just by having
00:16:13.17\00:16:14.94
less time. I do
a lot of fast food
00:16:15.14\00:16:17.87
and I actually hate fast food.
00:16:18.07\00:16:19.77
I don't like the way it
tastes but I'll eat it because
00:16:19.97\00:16:22.28
it's cheap and I
can get it on the run. "
00:16:22.48\00:16:24.15
So you're saying:
"That looked pretty good...
00:16:24.35\00:16:25.68
what's the problem?
" What are you saying?
00:16:25.71\00:16:27.42
You were about to say something.
00:16:27.82\00:16:29.35
Well yeah, notice how
when Dr. Jackson was mentioning
00:16:29.55\00:16:32.89
what's going on in the
cellular level - um-hmm -
00:16:33.09\00:16:35.66
in Isaiah 14:12 it talks
about Satan being the one
00:16:36.06\00:16:39.73
that weakens the nations.
That's right. Now it doesn't
00:16:39.93\00:16:42.26
mean that the nations being...
Causing them to be sick. Yes!
00:16:42.46\00:16:44.57
But it doesn't mean that the
nations are: "OK, he's going to
00:16:44.77\00:16:46.74
weaken the United
States. " No... he actually
00:16:46.94\00:16:49.27
when weakening
the nations is people.
00:16:49.47\00:16:52.17
Just in Revelation 14:12
where the angel is declaring
00:16:52.37\00:16:55.44
the gospel to every nation,
kindred, people, and tongue -
00:16:55.64\00:16:58.01
that's right - it's
talking about individuals.
00:16:58.21\00:17:00.62
So in weakening the nations
and making sick the nations
00:17:00.82\00:17:03.69
he's making sick people.
And he's doing that at the
00:17:03.89\00:17:06.76
cellular level. And if
the foundations be destroyed
00:17:06.96\00:17:10.63
what can the righteous do?
00:17:10.83\00:17:12.86
Wow! So we're being
destroyed at the very foundation
00:17:13.06\00:17:16.67
at the cellular
level. Wow! That's powerful.
00:17:16.87\00:17:20.27
Now you mentioned... Dr.
Jackson, you mentioned kids,
00:17:20.47\00:17:22.84
children. Now they did
a study and they showed
00:17:23.04\00:17:25.01
young kids under the age of 10
00:17:25.21\00:17:27.58
that if they took a
carrot and gave it to them
00:17:27.78\00:17:30.15
they were fine with it.
Um-hmm. Or they didn't like it,
00:17:30.35\00:17:32.38
they didn't like it.
But if they took a carrot
00:17:32.58\00:17:35.25
and put it in a fast food
bag and they ate it they said it
00:17:35.45\00:17:37.72
tasted better. Um-hmm. In
a bag. Put it in a fast food
00:17:37.92\00:17:41.32
bag... plastic bag.
That's what I'm said: "A bag? "
00:17:41.52\00:17:44.33
So how did that happen?
What has taken place there?
00:17:44.53\00:17:47.20
It's something on
the psychological level
00:17:47.60\00:17:50.70
is taking place. That's right.
00:17:50.90\00:17:52.23
And this is
where the battle is won
00:17:52.30\00:17:54.04
because we find that the
thinking process has definitely
00:17:54.44\00:17:59.01
been impacted from
early age on up to adult age.
00:17:59.21\00:18:04.75
But even if you make
any adjustments in society
00:18:04.95\00:18:07.98
if the thinking is not changed
00:18:08.18\00:18:09.52
the behavior is not
going to change. Um-hmm.
00:18:09.55\00:18:10.89
So the food
industry knows how to target
00:18:11.09\00:18:14.09
because there's a psychology
there. And the same way with
00:18:14.29\00:18:16.66
the Garden of Eden...
there's a psychology there.
00:18:16.86\00:18:18.83
The way Satan came
to our first parents.
00:18:19.03\00:18:20.96
We find that there is a
psychology there. There's a
00:18:21.16\00:18:22.83
mesmerism there that has
to put things in a different
00:18:23.03\00:18:25.77
perspective because if it
doesn't look good, taste good
00:18:25.97\00:18:28.77
then we're not going to
buy into it. But it has to be
00:18:28.97\00:18:31.27
a programming process. I
believe that a lot of this
00:18:31.47\00:18:34.24
stuff has been demonized...
a lot of the things that
00:18:34.44\00:18:36.18
we are dealing with. But
however we cannot use that term
00:18:36.38\00:18:39.55
within the marketing industry.
00:18:39.75\00:18:41.45
But the marketing
industry is very wise.
00:18:41.65\00:18:44.19
They know how to program. Yes.
00:18:44.39\00:18:46.76
They're programming
people. Yes... go ahead.
00:18:46.96\00:18:48.29
There is also... for kids
also there's hyperactivity.
00:18:48.39\00:18:53.09
And a lot of it is
coming from fast food because
00:18:53.29\00:18:55.40
there's such a low
level of omega-3 fatty acid
00:18:55.60\00:18:59.87
that we eat. And that brings
down all our serotonin levels
00:19:00.07\00:19:04.54
and it increases depression.
00:19:04.74\00:19:06.91
Affects us hormonally? Yes.
00:19:07.11\00:19:09.41
Um-hmm. So imagine all
our kids that are hyperactive.
00:19:09.61\00:19:12.11
They have more
anxiety, more depression,
00:19:12.31\00:19:14.75
and we don't know
what's wrong with them.
00:19:14.95\00:19:16.55
And then they end up
eating more food. It becomes
00:19:16.75\00:19:18.45
a really serious cycle for them.
00:19:18.65\00:19:20.02
Then we make them drug addicts.
I was going to say: somebody
00:19:20.22\00:19:22.12
is saying: "Well you know
what? There's a drug for that. "
00:19:22.32\00:19:24.43
That's right.
Well, the drug: Ritalin.
00:19:24.63\00:19:28.13
Medication. And so
it's a vicious circle.
00:19:28.33\00:19:30.83
Um-hmm. So we have people...
we're putting them in the cycle
00:19:31.03\00:19:33.77
of sickness that leads to death.
00:19:33.97\00:19:36.44
And you know, I like to
just kind of express what
00:19:36.64\00:19:41.68
people are thinking, you know.
And I think what people are
00:19:41.88\00:19:45.35
thinking. They're saying:
"Well, I hear what you're saying
00:19:45.55\00:19:48.28
but you know what? You've
got to die from something. "
00:19:48.48\00:19:50.29
That's what they think. Um-hmm.
00:19:50.49\00:19:51.99
"You've gotta die from
something. " That's a fatalistic
00:19:52.19\00:19:53.79
mindset. Yes. That's also
something that has happened
00:19:53.99\00:19:56.89
to our psyche. That's right...
that's absolutely right.
00:19:57.09\00:19:59.33
It takes me back to
the Bible. It takes me back
00:19:59.53\00:20:01.96
to Genesis chapter
3 where that first lie
00:20:02.16\00:20:06.63
and I hear it all the time.
00:20:06.84\00:20:08.17
It's amazing how
it's still with us.
00:20:08.20\00:20:09.54
Basically the devil said to Eve
00:20:09.60\00:20:12.77
"One bite won't hurt you. "
00:20:13.17\00:20:14.91
And I've been to many many
gatherings where there's food
00:20:15.41\00:20:19.35
especially around
family and things like that
00:20:19.55\00:20:21.12
around the holidays and I
say: "Well I don't eat that. "
00:20:21.32\00:20:23.39
And they'll say: "One bite
won't kill you. " That's right.
00:20:23.59\00:20:27.06
Now Adam and Eve did not
know that that one bite -
00:20:27.46\00:20:30.06
one bite would kill them - would
begin the process of death.
00:20:30.26\00:20:32.56
And when we take one bite -
even though we have pleasure
00:20:32.96\00:20:36.06
for a moment - that's right
- we don't realize that the
00:20:36.26\00:20:38.17
process of death has
really begun, hasn't it?
00:20:38.37\00:20:40.97
Eat it fast... won't last.
00:20:41.17\00:20:42.70
Eat it fast... You know, we like
to say... We call this program
00:20:45.94\00:20:49.14
Fast Food...
slowest food in the West.
00:20:49.44\00:20:51.91
And why is it slow? Why
would we say that it's slow?
00:20:52.11\00:20:55.02
It won't last. It won't last.
00:20:55.22\00:20:56.69
So why is it slow?
It's empty... we heard that.
00:20:56.89\00:21:00.86
Even Sickness said that.
Slows down our circulation.
00:21:01.02\00:21:03.73
Slows down our circulation. Why?
00:21:03.93\00:21:05.66
Just clogs it up.
Because it's high in that fat.
00:21:06.06\00:21:08.46
That fat affects the blood;
it gets into the bloodstream,
00:21:08.66\00:21:10.77
right? What else
does it slow down?
00:21:10.97\00:21:12.93
We find that not only are
we talking about circulation...
00:21:13.13\00:21:15.54
it definitely slows down the
whole process of vital force.
00:21:15.74\00:21:20.01
Even though it gives us
a sense of quick pick up
00:21:20.41\00:21:23.11
but it continues to rob.
You know, the Bible says in
00:21:23.31\00:21:25.65
John 10:10: "There
is one that is a thief.
00:21:25.85\00:21:29.02
He comes to steal, kill,
and destroy. " Through fast food
00:21:29.22\00:21:31.62
the devil is
stealing our vital force.
00:21:31.82\00:21:33.89
He is seeking to steal...
00:21:34.09\00:21:35.59
You know, even when we
mentioned about the ADH
00:21:35.79\00:21:38.96
fast food - the type of food
we are eating - even affects
00:21:39.16\00:21:41.46
our mental ability to function.
00:21:41.66\00:21:43.93
So he is stealing even
our ability to think clearly
00:21:44.13\00:21:46.87
through the high-processed food.
Sugar... take sugar for example,
00:21:47.07\00:21:50.24
which in a previous
show I said I was sugarholic.
00:21:50.44\00:21:53.04
Sugar sandwich;
sugar on the rice;
00:21:53.44\00:21:56.75
sugar in the collard
greens. Sugar in your grits!
00:21:56.95\00:21:59.78
In the grits... my! And
find it was robbing my body
00:21:59.98\00:22:03.45
as we already know of the B
vitamins, the calcium, and etc.
00:22:03.65\00:22:07.02
And though it was
convenient, sweet,
00:22:07.42\00:22:10.69
it was also
suppressing my immune system.
00:22:10.89\00:22:14.66
Slowing down my ability
to fight off the bacteria
00:22:15.06\00:22:18.50
and the viral invasions. Um-hmm.
00:22:18.70\00:22:20.24
So we go on and on and on. Yeah.
00:22:20.44\00:22:21.77
Now we've got just a couple
minutes left and I want to make
00:22:21.90\00:22:23.61
sure that we cover
a couple things here.
00:22:23.81\00:22:25.84
One I want to talk about
you brought up the idea of
00:22:26.14\00:22:28.11
robbing... it being a
robber of your vital force.
00:22:28.31\00:22:32.21
That's right. The things
in your body that you need.
00:22:32.41\00:22:34.05
And then I want to transition
to what are some practical
00:22:34.45\00:22:36.85
things that people can
do. You know, we see here that
00:22:37.05\00:22:39.35
we've got fast food here,
but maybe there are a few other
00:22:39.55\00:22:41.22
things that we can talk about.
00:22:41.42\00:22:42.76
But also if you're
eating high protein,
00:22:42.86\00:22:44.83
right? Is it true
that your body needs
00:22:45.03\00:22:49.06
to get calcium from somewhere
to metabolize that protein
00:22:49.26\00:22:53.94
from a meat source
and then robs it from
00:22:54.14\00:22:56.71
say your bones where
there is calcium in abundance?
00:22:56.91\00:22:59.44
Is that true? Yes. So
that's robbery right there!
00:22:59.64\00:23:03.14
Most definitely! So I'm
reminded of this definition
00:23:03.35\00:23:06.31
of food that says that
when we eat something it should
00:23:06.51\00:23:08.85
in no way injure the
system. That's correct.
00:23:09.05\00:23:11.65
It should not injure
the body or any of its parts
00:23:11.85\00:23:14.32
but instead it should
bring life to it. That's right.
00:23:14.52\00:23:16.22
That's right. Is
that right? That's right.
00:23:16.42\00:23:18.26
The Bible says that the
foods we eat in fast food is...
00:23:18.46\00:23:21.73
definitely is a thief.
Like sugar... sugar is a thief!
00:23:21.93\00:23:25.10
Refined white
flour... it's a thief.
00:23:25.30\00:23:27.44
Fried food... it's a
thief. It does rob, depletes.
00:23:27.64\00:23:30.14
Now the body has to
compensate like I said.
00:23:30.34\00:23:32.94
If we are eating high-
protein food... which we need
00:23:33.14\00:23:35.81
protein but in a
different source...
00:23:36.01\00:23:37.58
then the body becomes so acidic.
Now the body's got to pull
00:23:37.78\00:23:40.28
calcium from the
bones to neutralize it.
00:23:40.48\00:23:42.78
So in one sense we seem
like we're getting the pleasure
00:23:42.98\00:23:44.99
but down the long term
we're actually doing more harm.
00:23:45.19\00:23:49.82
Pleasure for the moment.
00:23:50.03\00:23:51.46
Hidden parts... we
don't know what's going on
00:23:51.66\00:23:53.76
but there's something that's
taking place in our biochemical
00:23:53.96\00:23:57.63
bodies... highly
biochemical. It's robbing
00:23:57.93\00:24:02.50
and things are taking
place and we don't even know it.
00:24:02.70\00:24:04.71
Wow! And it's because we
don't know it or don't see it
00:24:05.11\00:24:08.31
that we think: "Oh,
it's not harming me. "
00:24:08.51\00:24:10.35
"Oh, having this one
bite won't affect me. "
00:24:10.55\00:24:13.62
And I remember when my wife
and I, we... because we're both
00:24:13.82\00:24:17.79
cheese... we love
cheese. Love it! We loved it.
00:24:17.99\00:24:20.86
And we started weaning off
from it, and there was a period
00:24:21.06\00:24:23.73
of time where we were off
of it for maybe 2 or 3 weeks.
00:24:23.93\00:24:26.83
And we decided
to "treat" ourselves
00:24:27.03\00:24:29.13
for date night and
go have some yogurt.
00:24:29.33\00:24:32.03
Oh, that's nice. It was a nice
date night. It was not nice!
00:24:32.23\00:24:35.24
Unfortunately it ends
up... The date night was nice
00:24:35.44\00:24:37.01
but what they ate...
Yeah, but unfortunately
00:24:37.21\00:24:41.14
we ate that and
then within 30 minutes
00:24:41.34\00:24:43.95
we were sick... so we
couldn't even enjoy date night.
00:24:44.15\00:24:47.75
And it's at that
point we realized that
00:24:47.95\00:24:50.12
having all of that cheese
and all of those dairy products
00:24:50.52\00:24:53.39
actually affected our systems
and we didn't even know it.
00:24:53.59\00:24:56.12
Slowed you down,
didn't it? It slowed us down!
00:24:56.32\00:24:57.96
We bring that
back around to couples.
00:24:58.16\00:25:01.06
It was date night for them
- yes - but food, fast food -
00:25:01.46\00:25:04.53
cheese -
destroyed their date night.
00:25:04.73\00:25:07.04
We could keep talking
about this and go on and on.
00:25:09.14\00:25:11.87
We're going to have to talk
about some more of these things
00:25:12.07\00:25:13.41
on another program.
We thank you so much for
00:25:13.61\00:25:15.61
being with us. I hope
that you've enjoyed this.
00:25:15.81\00:25:17.95
This has been an
interesting topic: fast food.
00:25:18.25\00:25:21.58
I know it's important to
a lot of people out there,
00:25:21.78\00:25:23.39
but you know what?
Just take into consideration
00:25:23.59\00:25:26.12
the things that we've talked
about. Don't forget where you
00:25:26.32\00:25:27.66
saw Sickness but
don't you end up there.
00:25:27.69\00:25:29.72
See you next time.
00:25:30.13\00:25:31.46
You know, I really enjoyed
the topic of the program today.
00:25:33.43\00:25:37.70
Why don't we do a re-cap?
00:25:38.10\00:25:39.57
Today we learned
that fast food is
00:25:39.87\00:25:43.84
highly-processed, has
little nutritional value,
00:25:44.34\00:25:47.94
and it's loaded with
sugar and dangerous chemicals.
00:25:48.14\00:25:52.21
Who cares? The
fast food industry is
00:25:53.35\00:25:56.35
a multi-billion dollar industry
because they offer convenience.
00:25:56.55\00:26:01.06
And people aren't
going to give up convenience
00:26:01.46\00:26:03.83
for your health
tips. Wait a minute.
00:26:04.13\00:26:06.49
So... how
convenient is a heart attack?
00:26:06.80\00:26:10.13
Or how convenient is
triple-bypass heart surgery?
00:26:10.43\00:26:14.20
Type II
diabetes... is that convenient?
00:26:14.50\00:26:17.31
Or how about this one: death?
00:26:17.61\00:26:20.38
How convenient is death?
00:26:20.78\00:26:22.31
Do you really think that
people are going to choose
00:26:22.51\00:26:25.61
death and sickness for
the sake of convenience?
00:26:25.81\00:26:29.08
Hmm... let's see.
00:26:29.38\00:26:30.95
Yes! Because it tastes good!
00:26:31.25\00:26:33.92
Look, people will
deal with some diabetes,
00:26:34.32\00:26:36.66
going to the doctor...
waiting for three hours...
00:26:36.86\00:26:38.79
because hey, they realize:
00:26:39.09\00:26:40.90
taste is what you
should rely on in life.
00:26:41.20\00:26:44.30
Stop trying to scare people with
all that scary health stuff...
00:26:44.60\00:26:48.17
although it really
is going to happen.
00:26:48.37\00:26:50.91
The reality is people
really will not give up taste.
00:26:51.11\00:26:55.04
Taste is like my best weapon.
00:26:55.24\00:26:56.64
You give me taste, I
can sell people anything.
00:26:56.85\00:26:59.41
Just like the enemy
of nutrition is health.
00:26:59.61\00:27:02.32
Friends: we must get
control of our appetites.
00:27:02.72\00:27:07.06
What you eat becomes
the make-up of your blood
00:27:07.46\00:27:09.99
and the life is in the blood.
00:27:10.19\00:27:12.69
If we eat food that
is devoid of nutrition,
00:27:12.89\00:27:15.16
our bodies will not have
the ability to fight diseases
00:27:15.36\00:27:19.17
and fight sickness. The
Psalmist says: "Oh taste
00:27:19.37\00:27:23.74
and see that the Lord is good. "
00:27:23.94\00:27:26.54
That's the taste we want!
00:27:26.94\00:27:28.38
This has been our
program for today.
00:27:28.68\00:27:30.61
That's it?
We're done? That fast?
00:27:30.81\00:27:32.68
Like fast food. Get it? Fast.
00:27:32.88\00:27:35.32
I'm Rico Hill, and as always
00:27:35.72\00:27:38.62
"Beloved, I wish above all
things that thou mayest prosper
00:27:38.82\00:27:42.72
and be in health. "
00:27:43.02\00:27:44.53
Stay healthy. Maranatha.
00:27:45.59\00:27:48.63
Taste!
00:27:48.83\00:27:50.77
