>: It has stood
the test of time.
00:00:06.86\00:00:10.96
God's book, the Bible.
00:00:12.03\00:00:14.80
Still relevant in
today's complex world.
00:00:16.73\00:00:21.63
It Is Written.
00:00:22.06\00:00:25.06
Sharing hope around the globe.

John Bradshaw:
This is It Is Written.
00:00:36.83\00:00:39.10
I'm John Bradshaw.
00:00:39.10\00:00:39.90
Thanks for joining me today.
00:00:39.90\00:00:42.23
There are certain phrases
that are always going to be
00:00:42.23\00:00:46.36
memorable.
00:00:46.36\00:00:47.56
One of them
might be, "It's a boy."
00:00:47.56\00:00:50.56
Another one might
be, "Congratulations,
00:00:50.56\00:00:53.93
you are the lucky winner."
00:00:53.93\00:00:55.76
Another memorable
phrase that far too many people
00:00:55.76\00:00:59.43
have heard, a phrase that's
memorable for all the wrong
00:00:59.43\00:01:02.56
reasons is, "I regret to
inform you that it's cancer."
00:01:02.56\00:01:09.40
The Bible says we are
fearfully and wonderfully made.
00:01:09.40\00:01:11.40
In the beginning God created.
00:01:11.40\00:01:13.50
He didn't create
us to get cancer.
00:01:13.50\00:01:15.46
He created us to
live long and well.
00:01:15.46\00:01:17.20
Jesus came to give
us life more abundantly.
00:01:17.20\00:01:20.80
Cancer is an ever
present challenge in this world,
00:01:20.80\00:01:23.63
it is often deadly.
00:01:23.63\00:01:26.86
My guest today, Dr.
Neil Nedley, the president of
00:01:26.86\00:01:30.36
Nedley Health Solutions.
00:01:30.36\00:01:31.10
Dr. Nedley, thanks
for joining me today.
00:01:31.10\00:01:32.83
Neil Nedley: Thank you.
00:01:32.83\00:01:34.16
Great to be here.
00:01:34.16\00:01:35.53
JB: What's cancer?
00:01:35.53\00:01:36.56
NN: Cancer is an abnormal
cell that grows out of control.
00:01:36.56\00:01:41.96
JB: How does it get that way?
00:01:41.96\00:01:43.10
Do we know?
00:01:43.10\00:01:44.03
NN: Yes.
00:01:44.03\00:01:45.06
I mean, there has to be a
change in the genetic material
00:01:45.06\00:01:50.80
in the cell.
00:01:50.80\00:01:52.46
And that change in the genetic
material can then produce a
00:01:52.46\00:01:55.63
cancerous cell and as long
as that cell can reproduce,
00:01:55.63\00:01:59.23
it can grow out of control
and spread to vital organs.
00:01:59.23\00:02:02.10
JB: Okay.
00:02:02.10\00:02:02.73
Out of control cells.
00:02:02.73\00:02:03.43
NN: Out of control cell.
00:02:03.43\00:02:05.23
JB: And describe
to me what happens.
00:02:05.23\00:02:06.53
The out of control cells spread
to, let's pick on the pancreas,
00:02:06.53\00:02:12.06
pancreatic cancer is a
really dangerous cancer.
00:02:12.06\00:02:14.13
NN: It is, yeah.
00:02:14.13\00:02:15.00
JB: So, what happens?
00:02:15.00\00:02:16.33
You've got a pancreas.
00:02:16.33\00:02:18.66
A cancer cell lodges there.
00:02:18.66\00:02:21.13
NN: Um-hum.
00:02:21.13\00:02:22.56
JB: Very
frequently somebody dies.
00:02:22.56\00:02:24.43
What happened
between there and there?
00:02:24.43\00:02:26.90
What did the cancer do?
00:02:26.90\00:02:28.23
What actually
happens with cancer?
00:02:28.23\00:02:29.76
Whether it's the
lung or some other place.
00:02:29.76\00:02:32.03
NN: Well, it eventually spreads
to vital organs that will take
00:02:32.03\00:02:35.20
your life.
00:02:35.20\00:02:36.56
JB: Those abnormal cells somehow
inhibit the function of that
00:02:36.56\00:02:40.90
organ.
00:02:40.90\00:02:41.76
NN: Correct.
00:02:41.76\00:02:42.70
JB: Okay.
00:02:42.70\00:02:43.23
NN: Yeah.
00:02:43.23\00:02:44.40
JB: How big a problem is
cancer in the United States?
00:02:44.40\00:02:46.83
NN: One out of every two
men will get it at some point in
00:02:46.83\00:02:49.46
their life.
00:02:49.46\00:02:51.23
One out of every three women
will get it at some point in
00:02:51.23\00:02:54.10
their life.
00:02:54.10\00:02:55.90
And one out of every four deaths
in this country is from cancer.
00:02:55.90\00:03:00.63
It's the number one cause of
death in people under the age of
00:03:00.63\00:03:02.86
85.
00:03:02.86\00:03:04.46
And it kills people of all ages.
00:03:04.46\00:03:06.66
A lot of people are not aware
that the pediatric population,
00:03:06.66\00:03:10.73
second leading cause of
death in children is cancer.
00:03:10.73\00:03:15.16
Ah, and so it affects people
of all ages, it's not, you know,
00:03:15.16\00:03:19.90
age specific.
00:03:19.90\00:03:22.20
Ah, and it needs
to be eliminated.
00:03:22.20\00:03:26.23
JB: Babies can have cancer.
00:03:26.23\00:03:28.86
NN: They can.
00:03:28.86\00:03:29.73
JB: Now, they do anything to
deserve, I don't mean deserve,
00:03:29.73\00:03:32.23
to earn that or to deserve
that, so cancer can strike
00:03:32.23\00:03:37.83
indiscriminately.
00:03:37.83\00:03:39.70
NN: It can.
00:03:39.70\00:03:40.43
JB: But at the same time, what
we know is that much lung cancer
00:03:40.43\00:03:44.96
is attributable to smoking.
00:03:44.96\00:03:47.16
NN: Correct.
00:03:47.16\00:03:47.70
JB: We know that much bowel and
colon cancer is attributable to
00:03:47.70\00:03:50.96
diet.
00:03:50.96\00:03:51.96
NN: Correct.
00:03:51.96\00:03:52.63
JB: So there are ways that
cancer can be, I'll just use the
00:03:52.63\00:03:57.26
word avoided.
00:03:57.26\00:03:59.16
NN: Um-hum.
00:03:59.16\00:03:59.80
Even in the pediatric
population, an infant getting
00:03:59.80\00:04:02.40
cancer for instance, or a two-
or three-year-old, that's often
00:04:02.40\00:04:07.36
due to a genetic mutation that
occurred in the sperm of the
00:04:07.36\00:04:11.86
father as a
result of his bad diet.
00:04:11.86\00:04:16.10
And so, at the
time of conception.
00:04:16.10\00:04:18.93
And so a lot of these pediatric
cancers actually can be traced
00:04:18.93\00:04:22.66
back to the habits of parents.
00:04:22.66\00:04:26.10
And so that's
something to keep in mind.
00:04:26.10\00:04:27.66
They did nothing wrong, but
mutations can be passed along to
00:04:27.66\00:04:31.73
children that the parents
themselves don't have by a poor
00:04:31.73\00:04:35.76
lifestyle.
00:04:35.76\00:04:36.83
JB: Can I ask you, what age
group is most susceptible to
00:04:36.83\00:04:44.13
getting cancer?
00:04:44.13\00:04:46.03
NN: Well, the older we get
the more susceptible we are.
00:04:46.03\00:04:49.56
So, in general, age, and part
of that is, there's a greater
00:04:49.56\00:04:54.66
chance that our nucleus and the
genetic material are going to be
00:04:54.66\00:04:58.33
changed by given enough
time and given enough, you know,
00:04:58.33\00:05:03.23
lifestyle circumstances
to help produce this.
00:05:03.23\00:05:06.80
JB: Okay, so you're 15 years
old, 20, 25, 30, 35, you're
00:05:06.80\00:05:11.63
healthy, and Grandpa just
died of cancer and he was 79.
00:05:11.63\00:05:19.86
And you're saying to yourself,
I want to be 79 and well,
00:05:19.86\00:05:24.43
what should a person be
doing to do their very best to
00:05:24.43\00:05:30.26
avoid cancer later in life?
00:05:30.26\00:05:33.70
What are things you can do?
00:05:33.70\00:05:34.66
NN: Well, there's two primary
mechanisms preventing cancer.
00:05:34.66\00:05:39.80
One is by avoiding carcinogens
and, two, is boosting and
00:05:39.80\00:05:45.46
maintaining the immune system.
00:05:45.46\00:05:47.20
JB: Okay.
00:05:47.20\00:05:47.80
A carcinogen is a
cancer causing agent, correct?
00:05:47.80\00:05:49.96
NN: That's right.
00:05:49.96\00:05:50.60
JB: Okay, what
are some carcinogens?
00:05:50.60\00:05:52.90
NN: Well, you mentioned
one, tobacco smoke is a big one.
00:05:52.90\00:05:56.83
Thirty percent of all cancers
in our country are caused by
00:05:56.83\00:06:01.30
tobacco.
00:06:01.30\00:06:02.46
JB: That's a lot.
00:06:02.46\00:06:03.33
NN: That's a lot.
00:06:03.33\00:06:04.63
So, that's a huge, huge number.
00:06:04.63\00:06:07.13
Alcohol is
actually a carcinogen.
00:06:07.13\00:06:09.70
A lot of people don't realize
it, but the American Cancer
00:06:09.70\00:06:12.33
Society recommends zero alcohol.
00:06:12.33\00:06:15.50
Alcohol increases your risk of
breast cancer significantly, of
00:06:15.50\00:06:19.56
colorectal cancer, of
cancer of the liver, the larynx,
00:06:19.56\00:06:24.10
even the esophagus.
00:06:24.10\00:06:26.66
And so, thousands of deaths
are caused in this country every
00:06:26.66\00:06:30.83
year simply due to
alcohol causing a cancer or
00:06:30.83\00:06:36.80
significantly increasing a risk.
00:06:36.80\00:06:39.83
And that's something that
the media doesn't broadcast.
00:06:39.83\00:06:43.16
You know, one of the things I
know and that's why it's so nice
00:06:43.16\00:06:45.86
to be on a program like It
Is Written that's willing to,
00:06:45.86\00:06:48.86
to tell all of the
truth and the whole story.
00:06:48.86\00:06:52.00
But, you know, on the typical
evening news show, the only time
00:06:52.00\00:06:55.63
you'll hear about alcohol is
when it's shown to reduce the
00:06:55.63\00:06:59.20
risk of heart disease.
00:06:59.20\00:07:00.43
JB: Right.
00:07:00.43\00:07:01.40
NN: And it is true that if
you drink enough alcohol to get
00:07:01.40\00:07:05.33
cirrhosis of the liver, you will
only have a 25% chance of dying
00:07:05.33\00:07:09.73
of heart disease compared
to the general population.
00:07:09.73\00:07:12.80
But you'll have many fold
increased risk of dying, if you
00:07:12.80\00:07:16.26
don't die of the cirrhosis
if you drink that much alcohol,
00:07:16.26\00:07:19.06
you're going to die of
cancer pretty soon anyways.
00:07:19.06\00:07:22.13
And not only just cancer of the
liver, but there may be other
00:07:22.13\00:07:24.90
cancers that come about.
00:07:24.90\00:07:27.10
So, so those are two big
ones right there, alcohol
00:07:27.10\00:07:30.43
and tobacco.
00:07:30.43\00:07:31.60
But there's others as well.
00:07:31.60\00:07:32.76
JB: Let's talk
about some of the others.
00:07:32.76\00:07:34.26
Alcohol and tobacco I've
often mentioned to people.
00:07:34.26\00:07:39.43
Imagine a world without tobacco
and somebody turned up in,
00:07:39.43\00:07:44.36
I don't know,
Congress or the World Fair,
00:07:44.36\00:07:47.46
I don't care and said,
look, I have this great product.
00:07:47.46\00:07:50.40
You'll enjoy it, it'll give you
a rush, it'll give you a buzz,
00:07:50.40\00:07:53.16
you'll think you're
cool, however, however,
00:07:53.16\00:07:57.16
it'll cause cancer, it'll
stink, it'll cost you money,
00:07:57.16\00:08:01.00
it'll be antisocial,
folks will die in their droves,
00:08:01.00\00:08:06.10
the product would never
be allowed to make it to the
00:08:06.10\00:08:08.36
market.
00:08:08.36\00:08:09.50
NN: That's true.
00:08:09.50\00:08:10.10
JB: Yet today, here we are.
00:08:10.10\00:08:10.90
Same with alcohol.
00:08:10.90\00:08:12.90
These things are just a scourge.
00:08:12.90\00:08:14.33
I mean, no offense intended to
those who are hooked or who use
00:08:14.33\00:08:17.13
this, but, my goodness.
00:08:17.13\00:08:18.76
They're a societal ill.
00:08:18.76\00:08:20.93
NN: Yeah, absolutely.
00:08:20.93\00:08:22.06
JB: The less the better.
00:08:22.06\00:08:23.40
NN: Yeah.
00:08:23.40\00:08:24.03
JB: But there are probably
other carcinogens as well.
00:08:24.03\00:08:26.70
What might some others be?
00:08:26.70\00:08:27.66
NN: Well, one of
them is benzopyrene.
00:08:27.66\00:08:30.50
That's produced by
charcoal broiling meat.
00:08:30.50\00:08:34.73
And if you charcoal broil
meat, the amount of benzopyrene
00:08:34.73\00:08:37.73
produced is the equivalent to
what comes from 600 cigarettes
00:08:37.73\00:08:41.36
smoked, increase the risk of
leukemia, increases the risk of
00:08:41.36\00:08:45.63
stomach cancer.
00:08:45.63\00:08:48.40
And often people overlook that.
00:08:48.40\00:08:49.70
In the South, you know, charcoal
broiling is a major thing and
00:08:49.70\00:08:54.33
they're producing
carcinogens in the process.
00:08:54.33\00:08:56.76
JB: Let me ask
you this question.
00:08:56.76\00:08:59.86
This is one chunk of charcoal
broiled meat has the same effect
00:08:59.86\00:09:05.36
as, or the same amount as
600ó NN: Six hundred cigarettes,
00:09:05.36\00:09:07.93
yeah.
00:09:07.93\00:09:08.96
JB: Now, is this known?
00:09:08.96\00:09:11.83
Or only people
like you know this?
00:09:11.83\00:09:15.93
NN: Well, it should be more
widely known, that's why we're
00:09:15.93\00:09:18.06
educating people on
the media here today.
00:09:18.06\00:09:20.46
JB: Where did you, where
did you find this statistic?
00:09:20.46\00:09:22.50
Did you have to dig
under a rock to find this?
00:09:22.50\00:09:24.80
Or is this relatively
accessible information?
00:09:24.80\00:09:28.23
NN: No, it's
accessible information.
00:09:28.23\00:09:29.83
Yeah.
00:09:29.83\00:09:30.60
JB: But it's not being
shouted from the rooftops.
00:09:30.60\00:09:32.86
NN: It isn't and that's part
of the sad things in our society
00:09:32.86\00:09:35.36
today.
00:09:35.36\00:09:36.16
Some things are politically
incorrect to shout from the
00:09:36.16\00:09:39.30
rooftops because they might
affect someone's business or
00:09:39.30\00:09:44.86
someone's taste buds, but in
reality we should be much more
00:09:44.86\00:09:48.76
interested in their health.
00:09:48.76\00:09:50.26
JB: Particularly in a country
that's grappling unsuccessfully
00:09:50.26\00:09:54.36
with a healthcare crisis.
00:09:54.36\00:09:56.06
NN: Exactly.
00:09:56.06\00:09:56.86
JB: Now, the fact is, too, that
there are many people who just
00:09:56.86\00:10:02.16
get cancer out of the blue, even
though they've lived healthy
00:10:02.16\00:10:05.20
lives, that's true.
00:10:05.20\00:10:06.46
We'll talk about that
and more to do with this.
00:10:06.46\00:10:09.36
The Big C.
00:10:09.36\00:10:10.56
Cancer is so dreaded, it's
often simply referred to by a
00:10:10.56\00:10:14.66
euphemism and some people won't
even say the word, because it's
00:10:14.66\00:10:18.76
such a dreadful thing.
00:10:18.76\00:10:21.70
However, there is hope, hope for
somebody with cancer of course,
00:10:21.70\00:10:26.33
and there's hope for people who
don't have cancer that they need
00:10:26.33\00:10:30.33
never get it, if you make some
simple lifestyle changes and
00:10:30.33\00:10:34.16
live the life that God
desires for you to live.
00:10:34.16\00:10:37.10
We'll have more
in just a moment.
00:10:37.10\00:10:39.76
>: In Matthew 4:4, the
Word of God says, It is written,
00:10:41.60\00:10:45.06
Man shall not
live by bread alone,
00:10:45.06\00:10:47.00
but by every word that
proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:10:47.00\00:10:51.06

You'll be glad you did.
00:11:10.23\00:11:11.83
Here's a sample.
00:11:11.83\00:11:13.66
? [rythmic melody] ?
00:11:15.40\00:11:18.76
JB: I had to smile when I
read that a group was claiming
00:11:22.53\00:11:24.70
Peter didn't really walk on
water, but that the water had
00:11:24.70\00:11:27.16
turned to ice and that Peter
had actually walked on ice.
00:11:27.16\00:11:31.23
Now, here's what Matthew 14:29
says: "And when Peter was come
00:11:31.23\00:11:34.53
down out of the ship, he walked
on the water, to go to Jesus."
00:11:34.53\00:11:38.26
Now, humanly speaking,
you can't walk on water.
00:11:38.26\00:11:40.60
But Peter really did
because it was really a miracle.
00:11:40.60\00:11:44.10
We serve a great God who created
the world out of nothing and can
00:11:44.10\00:11:47.70
still work miracles today.
00:11:47.70\00:11:49.80
I hope you choose to
believe today in the God of the
00:11:49.80\00:11:51.70
miraculous.
00:11:51.70\00:11:53.20
If God is bound by our human
explanations then he's a very
00:11:53.20\00:11:56.80
small God.
00:11:56.80\00:11:58.46
I'm glad we serve a big
God who's still able to do the
00:11:58.46\00:12:01.63
miraculous today.
00:12:01.63\00:12:03.26
Today trust a God
who's able to do big things.
00:12:03.26\00:12:08.76
I'm John Bradshaw
for It Is Written.
00:12:08.76\00:12:10.60
Let's live today by every word.
00:12:10.60\00:12:13.46
JB: This is It Is
Written, I'm John Bradshaw.
00:12:15.76\00:12:17.86
Thanks for joining me today.
00:12:17.86\00:12:19.36
My guest today is Dr.
Neil Nedley, the president of
00:12:19.36\00:12:21.83
Nedley Health Solutions.
00:12:21.83\00:12:23.23
Dr. Nedley, really we're looking
at a health solution today.
00:12:23.23\00:12:26.26
NN: Yes.
00:12:26.26\00:12:26.90
JB: We're discussing what many
people call the Big C, cancer,
00:12:26.90\00:12:29.96
a dreadful disease.
00:12:29.96\00:12:31.83
You mentioned earlier, one
in two men will develop cancer
00:12:31.83\00:12:34.90
sometime in their lives.
00:12:34.90\00:12:35.83
Didn't you say
one in three women?
00:12:35.83\00:12:38.73
NN: One in three women.
00:12:38.73\00:12:39.40
JB: That's a gigantic amount.
00:12:39.40\00:12:40.00
NN: Yes.
00:12:40.00\00:12:40.96
JB: Do you feel that
many people just think it's an
00:12:40.96\00:12:42.83
inevitability?
00:12:42.83\00:12:43.90
NN: Oh, yes.
00:12:43.90\00:12:44.96
Most people think that they just
have to wait and hope that they
00:12:44.96\00:12:48.26
don't get it.
00:12:48.26\00:12:49.56
But they don't really realize
there's things that they can do
00:12:49.56\00:12:52.10
now to, to lower that risk.
00:12:52.10\00:12:54.76
JB: What do we know about
statistics or experiences or
00:12:54.76\00:12:58.43
something that show these
lifestyle choices actually make
00:12:58.43\00:13:03.86
a difference?
00:13:03.86\00:13:04.50
NN: Well, Harvard states that
80, up to 80% of cancers are
00:13:04.50\00:13:08.13
actually preventable
through lifestyle change.
00:13:08.13\00:13:12.30
JB: That's Harvard?
00:13:12.30\00:13:13.00
NN: And so, that's right, and
so we know that we can make a
00:13:13.00\00:13:16.90
difference if we're really doing
everything right in, in 80% of
00:13:16.90\00:13:21.90
cases and that's a
pretty significant number.
00:13:21.90\00:13:25.10
JB: That really is.
00:13:25.10\00:13:25.83
NN: But it is true that there's
another 20% that we don't know
00:13:25.83\00:13:29.30
how to prevent at
this point in time.
00:13:29.30\00:13:31.13
That we may learn more as
we study this more and find out
00:13:31.13\00:13:35.83
that we might be able to prevent
90%, but right now the most we
00:13:35.83\00:13:39.00
can prevent is 80% of cancer.
00:13:39.00\00:13:41.10
JB: That's a pretty good number.
00:13:41.10\00:13:42.20
NN: That's hundreds of thousands
of deaths spared per year.
00:13:42.20\00:13:45.90
But we're talking of hundreds
of thousands of deaths per year
00:13:45.90\00:13:50.50
that could be spared if people
would, A, become educated about
00:13:50.50\00:13:56.16
how they can prevent it, and, B,
utilize their God-given power of
00:13:56.16\00:14:00.90
self-control to change
their lifestyle accordingly.
00:14:00.90\00:14:04.23
JB: Are there other carcinogens
that are somewhat prominent or
00:14:04.23\00:14:09.33
prevalent that we
could avoid somehow?
00:14:09.33\00:14:11.03
NN: There's a number of cancers
that come about as a result of
00:14:11.03\00:14:16.43
eating meat in particular.
00:14:16.43\00:14:19.03
Colon cancer, for instance.
00:14:19.03\00:14:20.93
Harvard showed that if you eat
meat every day you have a 142%
00:14:20.93\00:14:25.70
increased risk
of developing that.
00:14:25.70\00:14:28.13
If you eat meat five or six
times a, a week, you lower that
00:14:28.13\00:14:33.66
risk to 84% increased risk.
00:14:33.66\00:14:36.76
If you're two to four times
a week, you're down to 50%.
00:14:36.76\00:14:41.06
But even if you eat it one time
a month, your risk is 30% higher
00:14:41.06\00:14:46.46
compared with someone
who doesn't eat it at all.
00:14:46.46\00:14:49.06
So, their conclusion was, the
more meat, the higher the risk
00:14:49.06\00:14:52.46
of cancer, and the more
frequently it's consumed,
00:14:52.46\00:14:55.90
the higher the risk.
00:14:55.90\00:14:57.10
But they also concluded that
there's no safe level per se.
00:14:57.10\00:15:02.26
So, in other words, as you
eliminate it, your risk goes
00:15:02.26\00:15:05.23
down significantly, and
it's not just colon cancer.
00:15:05.23\00:15:08.63
We now know a number of other
cancers are associated with meat
00:15:08.63\00:15:13.20
intake.
00:15:13.20\00:15:14.40
JB: That's a
pretty simple change.
00:15:14.40\00:15:17.03
NN: Pretty simple change.
00:15:17.03\00:15:18.13
Just being a vegetarian one
or two days a week, you go from
00:15:18.13\00:15:20.80
140% down to 80%.
00:15:20.80\00:15:23.56
So you can spare yourself
a decreased risk of 60% right
00:15:23.56\00:15:28.06
there by being a vegetarian
one or two days a week.
00:15:28.06\00:15:30.83
And if you can do it one or two
days a week, and that's good,
00:15:30.83\00:15:33.70
then stretch it out to maybe
three or four and keep moving.
00:15:33.70\00:15:36.80
JB: Do we know
anything about exercise and
00:15:36.80\00:15:39.36
lowering your cancer risk?
00:15:39.36\00:15:40.86
NN: Yes, we do.
00:15:40.86\00:15:42.16
Exercise does
lower the cancer risk.
00:15:42.16\00:15:44.63
Actually, it does that by
boosting your immune system, and
00:15:44.63\00:15:50.00
so that way if you have a tiptop
immune system, hopefully your
00:15:50.00\00:15:53.26
cancer cell will be recognized
as a, a foreign cell and be
00:15:53.26\00:15:59.10
destroyed by your immune system.
00:15:59.10\00:16:01.13
And exercise seems
to help in several ways.
00:16:01.13\00:16:03.93
JB: Let's drill down here on,
on this aspect of it, because,
00:16:03.93\00:16:06.90
first thing, recognizing
and avoiding carcinogens.
00:16:06.90\00:16:11.00
I was going to say to you,
perhaps that second thing would
00:16:11.00\00:16:13.33
be building your immune system.
00:16:13.33\00:16:15.00
NN: Correct.
00:16:15.00\00:16:15.40
Yes.
00:16:15.40\00:16:16.50
JB: So, exercise
is one of those ways.
00:16:16.50\00:16:18.30
There must be a plethora of
things we can do to strengthen
00:16:18.30\00:16:23.46
our immune system.
00:16:23.46\00:16:24.60
NN: There are.
00:16:24.60\00:16:25.33
JB: What are
some of those things.
00:16:25.33\00:16:26.56
NN: Well, diet
is one of the ways.
00:16:26.56\00:16:28.76
There's, there's wonderful
dietary changes that can help
00:16:28.76\00:16:31.90
boost your immune system.
00:16:31.90\00:16:33.36
JB: Okay.
00:16:33.36\00:16:33.93
What are some of the things
that people might want to,
00:16:33.93\00:16:35.93
let's just say eat, to
help the immune system.
00:16:35.93\00:16:38.66
NN: Eating foods high
in what we call carotenoid.
00:16:38.66\00:16:42.70
JB: Okay.
00:16:42.70\00:16:43.26
I'm going to encourage somebody,
if you've got a moment and you
00:16:43.26\00:16:46.06
can find a pen or something,
make a list here of, I'm going
00:16:46.06\00:16:49.60
to go to the store and make
sure I buy some of these things.
00:16:49.60\00:16:52.46
I'm going to add
these to my diet.
00:16:52.46\00:16:54.36
It's not hard.
00:16:54.36\00:16:55.40
No one's going to ask you
to jump through hoops here.
00:16:55.40\00:16:57.66
This won't be difficult.
00:16:57.66\00:16:58.76
NN: That's right.
00:16:58.76\00:16:59.26
JB: Foods that are
high in carotenoids.
00:16:59.26\00:17:01.36
NN: Yeah.
00:17:01.36\00:17:01.86
Carotenoids, in fact, studies
have shown that even if you're a
00:17:01.86\00:17:05.63
smoker, if you're on a high
carotinoid diet you'll only have
00:17:05.63\00:17:09.43
one-third the risk of developing
smoking related cancers.
00:17:09.43\00:17:13.26
JB: That's magnificent.
00:17:13.26\00:17:14.53
Foods high in carotenoids.
00:17:14.53\00:17:17.83
Okay, what are those foods?
00:17:17.83\00:17:19.13
This is life and death.
00:17:19.13\00:17:20.36
So, what are those foods.
00:17:20.36\00:17:21.16
NN: Yes, yes.
00:17:21.16\00:17:22.53
They're going to be
your vitamin A foods.
00:17:22.53\00:17:25.13
Most of them are going to
have a yellow or orange hue,
00:17:25.13\00:17:29.36
vegetables, for instance.
00:17:29.36\00:17:30.56
JB: Squash?
00:17:30.56\00:17:31.40
NN: Squash is loaded.
00:17:31.40\00:17:32.63
Orange yams.
00:17:32.63\00:17:34.43
JB: Sweet potatoes?
00:17:34.43\00:17:35.60
NN: Yeah, the sweet potatoes
are loaded with carotenoids.
00:17:35.60\00:17:38.43
JB: So, eating
by colors, really?
00:17:38.43\00:17:40.60
NN: Yeah.
00:17:40.60\00:17:41.33
JB: Go to the supermarket and
buy the yellow and the orange
00:17:41.33\00:17:43.13
stuff.
00:17:43.13\00:17:43.73
NN: Yeah.
00:17:43.73\00:17:44.30
Apricots.
00:17:44.30\00:17:45.23
JB: Carrots?
00:17:45.23\00:17:46.03
NN: Carrots, yup.
00:17:46.03\00:17:46.93
Carrots would be a
good source of carotenoids.
00:17:46.93\00:17:49.13
I think that's where
carotenoids got its name from.
00:17:49.13\00:17:52.33
JB: Yeah, I'm
wondering about that.
00:17:52.33\00:17:55.13
NN: Yeah, it's from that, that
nice orange vegetable there.
00:17:55.13\00:17:56.80
And actually cooked
carrots have more carotenoids
00:17:56.80\00:17:58.60
than raw carrots.
00:17:58.60\00:18:00.26
JB: No kidding.
00:18:00.26\00:18:00.73
Usually they tell us that
raw is the way, the way to go.
00:18:00.73\00:18:03.30
NN: Well, raw will give you more
vitamin C, because cooking will
00:18:03.30\00:18:07.70
destroy about half the vitamin
C, but actually it gives you a
00:18:07.70\00:18:10.50
little more of some
nutrients like carotenoids.
00:18:10.50\00:18:12.86
JB: That's okay then.
00:18:12.86\00:18:13.50
That's all right.
00:18:13.50\00:18:15.23
So, foods with
carotenoids in them, consumed,
00:18:15.23\00:18:20.40
will boost the immune system.
00:18:20.40\00:18:22.36
NN: Um-hum.
00:18:22.36\00:18:22.96
One of those
carotenoids is called lycopene.
00:18:22.96\00:18:25.40
Lycopene is what makes tomatoes
red and strawberries red.
00:18:25.40\00:18:30.30
And studies show those with the
highest levels of lycopene in
00:18:30.30\00:18:34.10
their blood stream have
the lowest rates of pancreatic
00:18:34.10\00:18:36.66
cancer in the world.
00:18:36.66\00:18:39.13
So, that's an, an
interesting finding as well.
00:18:39.13\00:18:42.13
JB: That is.
00:18:42.13\00:18:43.03
NN: And it's much better to get
your lycopene from your fruits
00:18:43.03\00:18:45.36
and vegetables than trying
to buy lycopene in a bottle.
00:18:45.36\00:18:48.86
JB: So, so tomatoes.
00:18:48.86\00:18:51.46
Or what some would
refer to as tomatoes.
00:18:51.46\00:18:53.36
I think there's probably
more lycopene in a tomato than a
00:18:53.36\00:18:55.56
tomato, but that's just me.
00:18:55.56\00:18:58.96
That's good for you in
terms of fighting cancer.
00:18:58.96\00:19:01.53
NN: Yes.
00:19:01.53\00:19:02.23
Yes, absolutely.
00:19:02.23\00:19:03.03
JB: Fantastic.
00:19:03.03\00:19:03.53
What else can a person do?
00:19:03.53\00:19:05.63
This is so significant.
00:19:05.63\00:19:07.23
What we're learning is that
you aren't doomed to get cancer.
00:19:07.23\00:19:10.53
NN: That's right.
00:19:10.53\00:19:11.13
That's right.
00:19:11.13\00:19:11.70
JB: This is
something that you can avoid.
00:19:11.70\00:19:13.46
You quoted 80% of
cancers can be avoided.
00:19:13.46\00:19:17.33
That's magnificent.
00:19:17.33\00:19:19.03
NN: Up to.
00:19:19.03\00:19:19.73
JB: Okay.
00:19:19.73\00:19:20.63
Carotenoids.
00:19:20.63\00:19:21.33
What else
enhances the immune system?
00:19:21.33\00:19:23.73
NN: Vitamin C foods
will enhance it as well.
00:19:23.73\00:19:27.33
Vitamin C, if you're getting
more than 250 milligrams a day
00:19:27.33\00:19:31.90
in your diet, it protects
your sperm if you're a male from
00:19:31.90\00:19:37.00
genetic damage, so that
you won't have the risk of
00:19:37.00\00:19:41.46
actually passing cancer
along to your offspring.
00:19:41.46\00:19:45.40
And so, 250
milligrams a day will do that.
00:19:45.40\00:19:48.80
Now, the RDA is 60 or 90
milligrams, and so you need a
00:19:48.80\00:19:53.20
little bit more, but it's easy
to get 250 milligrams a day if
00:19:53.20\00:19:56.60
you're eating foods
that are rich in vitamin C.
00:19:56.60\00:19:59.40
JB: The best way to
get plenty of vitamin C is?
00:19:59.40\00:20:02.00
NN: They're raw
fruits and vegetables.
00:20:02.00\00:20:04.00
So, even raw broccoli has
40 milligrams per serving.
00:20:04.00\00:20:08.20
An orange will
have 60 milligrams.
00:20:08.20\00:20:11.30
JB: Kiwi fruit?
00:20:11.30\00:20:12.23
NN: Kiwi is even
more yet in vitamin C.
00:20:12.23\00:20:16.33
And then some of your highest
sources are strawberries.
00:20:16.33\00:20:19.63
You know, you can get,
you know, 140 milligrams from
00:20:19.63\00:20:22.53
strawberries.
00:20:22.53\00:20:23.43
Red bell peppers are also
good sources of vitamin C.
00:20:23.43\00:20:26.13
Raw red bell peppers.
00:20:26.13\00:20:27.36
JB: This is fun.
00:20:27.36\00:20:28.06
I mean, these are
foods people like.
00:20:28.06\00:20:29.46
NN: Yeah.
00:20:29.46\00:20:29.93
JB: Strawberries, kiwi fruit,
I mean, what's not to like
00:20:29.93\00:20:32.66
about that?
00:20:32.66\00:20:33.50
NN: Exactly.
00:20:33.50\00:20:34.30
JB: Okay.
00:20:34.30\00:20:34.83
Well that's good.
00:20:34.83\00:20:35.50
NN: And your citrus as well.
00:20:35.50\00:20:36.50
JB: Yeah.
00:20:36.50\00:20:37.00
Well, that's an enjoyable way.
00:20:37.00\00:20:37.80
Are there other things?
00:20:37.80\00:20:38.60
We've mentioned vitamin C
and the carotenoids, lycopene.
00:20:38.60\00:20:44.50
What else?
00:20:44.50\00:20:45.03
NN: Vitamin E.
00:20:45.03\00:20:46.20
JB: What's that in?
00:20:46.20\00:20:47.70
NN: Vitamin E is going to
be in more of your plant fat
00:20:47.70\00:20:52.60
substances.
00:20:52.60\00:20:53.10
Vitamin E is a
fat soluble vitamin.
00:20:53.10\00:20:55.33
So, almonds, high in vitamin E.
00:20:55.33\00:20:58.33
JB: What if I
roast those almonds?
00:20:58.33\00:21:00.80
Is it still high in vitamin E?
00:21:00.80\00:21:01.90
NN: It's still
high in vitamin E.
00:21:01.90\00:21:03.26
JB: All right.
00:21:03.26\00:21:03.96
NN: Yeah, you don't
destroy vitamin E by cooking.
00:21:03.96\00:21:05.70
JB: Almond
butter, still vitamin E?
00:21:05.70\00:21:07.50
NN: Yup.
00:21:07.50\00:21:08.16
Yup.
00:21:08.16\00:21:08.66
JB: Awesome.
00:21:08.66\00:21:09.26
NN: Yup.
00:21:09.26\00:21:09.73
Good source.
00:21:09.73\00:21:10.66
And vitamin E can also, there's
evidence that it can help
00:21:10.66\00:21:14.16
prevent skin cancer as well,
in adequate amounts, as long as
00:21:14.16\00:21:20.36
we're also getting
adequate amounts of A and C.
00:21:20.36\00:21:23.36
Often we talk about A, C,
and E together as having a more
00:21:23.36\00:21:26.86
augmented effect in helping
to potentially prevent certain
00:21:26.86\00:21:30.80
cancers.
00:21:30.80\00:21:31.96
JB: One of the best things we
can do for our health is wear a
00:21:31.96\00:21:34.96
hat.
00:21:34.96\00:21:35.96
NN: Yes.
00:21:35.96\00:21:36.96
And of course there,
what they're doing is getting
00:21:36.96\00:21:38.46
radiation from the sun that's
actually changing the genetic
00:21:38.46\00:21:41.46
material.
00:21:41.46\00:21:42.60
JB: Right.
00:21:42.60\00:21:43.03
NN: In your cells.
00:21:43.03\00:21:43.56
First it starts out with a
sunburn and then as that genetic
00:21:43.56\00:21:47.23
material continues to multiply
over time, it actually can turn
00:21:47.23\00:21:50.73
into a cancer.
00:21:50.73\00:21:51.70
JB: So, if you've had cancer,
and I have, and it's not a lot
00:21:51.70\00:21:55.43
of fun, and in my case
particularly the cure not
00:21:55.43\00:21:59.33
especially enjoyable, however,
the cure for the cancer of sin,
00:21:59.33\00:22:06.70
no negative side effects.
00:22:06.70\00:22:08.43
NN: That's right.
00:22:08.43\00:22:09.30
JB: A very positive journey.
00:22:09.30\00:22:10.90
NN: Yes.
00:22:10.90\00:22:12.20
JB: And that is
faith in Jesus Christ.
00:22:12.20\00:22:14.56
NN: Yes.
00:22:14.56\00:22:15.13
JB: You know, with cancer, when
you're looking to get out of
00:22:15.13\00:22:16.73
cancer, people are thinking
typically, chemotherapy, which
00:22:16.73\00:22:20.53
can be brutal, radiation, which
can be really brutal, but if you
00:22:20.53\00:22:26.93
want to get over the side
effects of sin, you come to
00:22:26.93\00:22:32.16
Jesus Christ through faith.
00:22:32.16\00:22:33.60
And, by the way, I
don't scare anybody.
00:22:33.60\00:22:34.76
Chemo and radiation can
in certain circumstances be
00:22:34.76\00:22:38.20
somewhat moderate to experience,
depending on the chemo and the
00:22:38.20\00:22:42.00
radiation.
00:22:42.00\00:22:43.73
But what God asks us to do if we
have sin, can face our sins and
00:22:43.73\00:22:49.23
through faith in Jesus
Christ believe we are forgiven.
00:22:49.23\00:22:53.10
And we're not just forgiven, but
we're cleansed, and that disease
00:22:53.10\00:22:56.33
of sin, you know, one
day it'll be eradicated.
00:22:56.33\00:23:00.56
Thank God.
00:23:00.56\00:23:01.46
Cancer and all physical diseases
will be eradicated as well.
00:23:01.46\00:23:05.63
But we're looking forward
to an eternity without sin.
00:23:05.63\00:23:09.33
NN: Exactly.
00:23:09.33\00:23:09.80
JB: Thankfully we can
look forward, no way, we can
00:23:09.80\00:23:12.50
experience a present without sin
as well if we come to Christ and
00:23:12.50\00:23:18.06
accept Jesus and then, and
then get the Word of God in us.
00:23:18.06\00:23:22.73
David said something phenomenal
in Psalm 119 when he said,
00:23:22.73\00:23:28.20
"Thy word have I hidden
my heart that I might not
00:23:28.20\00:23:30.46
sin against you."
00:23:30.46\00:23:32.90
So, the Bible, the Word of God,
Christ in us, actually possesses
00:23:32.90\00:23:37.23
the capacity to keep us
from going back into sin.
00:23:37.23\00:23:41.23
NN: It's boosting the
spiritual immune system.
00:23:41.23\00:23:43.23
JB: Yes, exactly right.
00:23:43.23\00:23:44.30
NN: And then we also want to
avoid spiritual carcinogens as
00:23:44.30\00:23:47.36
well.
00:23:47.36\00:23:48.53
JB: That's right.
00:23:48.53\00:23:49.16
NN: So that we don't
get the, the cancer of sin.
00:23:49.16\00:23:51.36
JB: And they're everywhere.
00:23:51.36\00:23:52.36
NN: Yes.
00:23:52.36\00:23:53.83
JB: I want you to know though
that as prevalent as sin seems
00:23:53.83\00:23:56.90
to be, as powerful as the enemy
of souls seems to be, 1 John 4,
00:23:56.90\00:24:01.83
in verse 4, promises you:
"Greater is he that is in you,
00:24:01.83\00:24:07.60
than he that is in the world."
00:24:07.60\00:24:10.13
Now, you've learned enough today
that you can go from this point
00:24:10.13\00:24:12.96
on looking hopefully into the
future and say, if I implement
00:24:12.96\00:24:17.13
some changes here, if they're
needed, then perhaps I don't
00:24:17.13\00:24:21.06
have to encounter
the Big C down the line.
00:24:21.06\00:24:23.83
It's no
guarantee, it's no guarantee,
00:24:23.83\00:24:26.20
but you can improve your odds.
00:24:26.20\00:24:27.93
I tell you what is a guarantee
and that is when you accept
00:24:27.93\00:24:30.66
Jesus Christ into your heart
by faith, you are guaranteed
00:24:30.66\00:24:35.16
to be cleansed of sin.
00:24:35.16\00:24:36.86
You need not live with it
in your life and you can look
00:24:36.86\00:24:40.86
forward to a future that is
sin free and filled with the
00:24:40.86\00:24:45.73
presence of Christ.

potentially life changing,
00:26:17.10\00:26:21.50

Thanks for joining with us.
00:26:23.00\00:26:24.80
Now we're going to pray together
and ask that God would take what
00:26:24.80\00:26:27.23
we've heard and make it
part of who and what we are.
00:26:27.23\00:26:29.60
Pray with me, please.
00:26:29.60\00:26:31.00
Our Father in Heaven, as today
we have discussed important
00:26:31.00\00:26:36.16
principles, allow us through
Christ to live the abundant life
00:26:36.16\00:26:41.16
as far as possible free
from the diseases of this world.
00:26:41.16\00:26:45.36
In fact, I recall that you said
to your people back at the time
00:26:45.36\00:26:50.56
of the exodus that you would put
none of the diseases upon them
00:26:50.56\00:26:54.70
that the Egyptians had,
if they would listen to you.
00:26:54.70\00:26:59.00
Let us listen to you as far as
your will will allow, allow us
00:26:59.00\00:27:04.16
to live without illness
and then with all of the health
00:27:04.16\00:27:08.36
you give us, give us
grace to live for you.
00:27:08.36\00:27:11.60
Thank you for delivering
us from the cancer of sin.
00:27:11.60\00:27:16.30
Let Jesus return and put an
end to the misery of this world,
00:27:16.30\00:27:20.86
the sin of this world.
00:27:20.86\00:27:22.63
And let him usher in an eternity
where we will enjoy sin free
00:27:22.63\00:27:27.03
life forever.
00:27:27.03\00:27:28.96
We pray in Jesus' name.
