Hi friends, and welcome to
another edition of NEWSTART NOW.
00:00:23.75\00:00:27.21
I'm your host Ron Giannoni,
00:00:27.57\00:00:29.48
and in our studio
today we have Theresa Cox.
00:00:30.03\00:00:32.81
Theresa came to us about
two weeks ago quite sick,
00:00:33.36\00:00:36.87
many different
ailments going on with her,
00:00:37.42\00:00:40.45
and rather than
hearing it from me,
00:00:40.78\00:00:42.72
lets watch a segment
from when she first arrived.
00:00:42.73\00:00:45.36
I started gaining
weight around 2004,
00:00:47.27\00:00:51.27
a little bit, not much,
I've never had a weight problem.
00:00:51.57\00:00:54.69
My son died in 2005,
00:00:55.24\00:00:57.75
and I was not active for
about two years after that.
00:00:58.33\00:01:03.21
Well, I'm a type two diabetic,
00:01:04.06\00:01:06.15
and I have ulcerative colitis
00:01:06.84\00:01:08.72
that's in
remission most of the time.
00:01:08.73\00:01:11.12
I have high cholesterol.
00:01:11.33\00:01:13.18
I have depression, I have. . .
00:01:13.51\00:01:18.63
I have. . .
00:01:19.18\00:01:20.33
a hard time going to
sleep a lot of times,
00:01:21.45\00:01:23.66
and generally
just don't feel well,
00:01:24.18\00:01:26.51
just do not feel well.
00:01:26.52\00:01:28.03
I want to feel well,
00:01:29.03\00:01:31.09
mentally, physically.
00:01:31.54\00:01:33.75
My mind is
actually better than it was,
00:01:34.75\00:01:37.66
I'm feeling better that way,
00:01:38.21\00:01:39.66
my body is having a hard
time catching up with that.
00:01:40.21\00:01:42.87
I really want to feel well.
00:01:43.24\00:01:45.27
I want to get up and feel
well, I mean I have a cold now
00:01:45.54\00:01:48.57
and just two days of
being here I'm almost over it.
00:01:48.84\00:01:51.51
I guess maybe the eating right,
00:01:51.78\00:01:53.51
but I want to get up
and feel good all day long
00:01:53.75\00:01:58.39
besides lose the weight.
00:01:59.63\00:02:01.33
Welcome back folks,
00:02:07.09\00:02:08.12
and in our studio we
have Theresa Cox with us.
00:02:08.24\00:02:10.51
How are you Teresa? - Great.
00:02:10.60\00:02:12.09
Good to see you.
00:02:12.10\00:02:13.15
Good to be here.
00:02:13.16\00:02:14.21
Well what I got
in your message is,
00:02:14.24\00:02:16.60
I want to feel well
I want to feel better.
00:02:16.61\00:02:19.39
Tell us now, How do you feel?
00:02:20.00\00:02:21.66
I feel a lot better
than I did when I came here,
00:02:21.75\00:02:24.66
it's obvious in my
spirit and my mood,
00:02:24.67\00:02:26.87
I do I feel a lot better.
00:02:27.36\00:02:28.84
You look, just
like a different person
00:02:29.24\00:02:31.57
Well, I'm still
working, I mean I've got a
00:02:32.12\00:02:34.48
lot of weight to lose
but I feel much better.
00:02:34.49\00:02:37.06
Yes, and have you lost some
weight since you've been here?
00:02:37.30\00:02:39.39
I have, I have lost some weight,
00:02:39.40\00:02:41.12
When I came I could only
walk a little over two blocks,
00:02:41.39\00:02:44.09
I'd had surgery, and
got down for about a year,
00:02:44.21\00:02:47.18
and I can walk
over two miles now.
00:02:47.19\00:02:49.27
In one shot?
00:02:49.48\00:02:50.72
In one shot, yes. - Wow
00:02:50.81\00:02:52.15
And I'm working on more.
00:02:52.21\00:02:53.54
Yes, and how far are
you walking everyday now?
00:02:53.75\00:02:56.36
About two to three
miles now. - Good for you.
00:02:56.81\00:03:00.09
Ok, so apparently your
heart is getting stronger,
00:03:00.81\00:03:04.21
your legs, your ankles,
00:03:04.22\00:03:05.69
I understand you had
some surgery on your ankles?
00:03:06.12\00:03:08.33
Yes I did, yes.
00:03:08.34\00:03:10.00
How about the. . .
What did you say you had?
00:03:10.27\00:03:14.06
That condition, you said
you had some sort of a . . .
00:03:14.57\00:03:16.75
I had type two diabetes.
00:03:17.30\00:03:18.84
No, I know about that,
00:03:19.00\00:03:20.09
but you had
diverticulitis? or. . .
00:03:20.10\00:03:21.69
No, ulcerative colitis.
00:03:21.72\00:03:23.42
Oh ok, how's that doing?
00:03:23.45\00:03:25.54
It's great.
00:03:25.57\00:03:26.69
Actually when I
was diagnosed with
00:03:27.00\00:03:29.00
that in the early
90s, they had told me
00:03:29.01\00:03:31.21
you will take
this medicine the rest
00:03:31.60\00:03:33.15
of your life to
keep it in remission.
00:03:33.16\00:03:34.60
So I haven't questioned that,
00:03:36.09\00:03:37.57
and if I do get
off the medicine,
00:03:37.58\00:03:39.30
I do have some problems with it,
00:03:39.31\00:03:40.84
But Dr. Ing has
actually. . . we're going
00:03:41.18\00:03:43.78
to try to actually
get off of it completely,
00:03:43.79\00:03:46.60
so that's my next step,
I'm looking forward to that.
00:03:46.81\00:03:49.81
Alright so lets
move on the the diabetes,
00:03:50.06\00:03:53.57
tell me what has
happened, what were
00:03:53.72\00:03:56.06
your numbers when
you first arrived here?
00:03:56.07\00:03:58.51
When I first arrived here, I
was taking three medications,
00:03:58.54\00:04:02.57
and even at a fasting it
was averaging around 210, and up
00:04:03.12\00:04:09.00
and now I'm taking
half of that medication
00:04:09.75\00:04:14.33
and it's averaging around 140.
00:04:14.78\00:04:17.06
And sometimes a 120 fasting,
and that's just in 18 days,
00:04:17.30\00:04:21.36
so I can imagine
when I do get the
00:04:21.37\00:04:23.81
weight loss and
continue eating this way
00:04:23.82\00:04:26.69
we believe that I will be
00:04:27.12\00:04:29.03
completely off
that medication as well
00:04:29.04\00:04:31.72
You're right on the verge
of reversing your diabetes.
00:04:32.00\00:04:35.54
Oh yes, absolutely.
00:04:35.57\00:04:37.06
And I came here just
to learn how to control it
00:04:37.21\00:04:42.00
manageable, lose some
weight, and control it.
00:04:42.45\00:04:45.42
I didn't dream that I would get
00:04:45.45\00:04:47.15
completely off
it--I didn't dream I
00:04:47.48\00:04:49.45
would be at half
as much in 18 days,
00:04:49.46\00:04:51.39
So I can see getting
off of the medication,
00:04:51.87\00:04:54.51
I can see that happening.
00:04:54.52\00:04:56.06
Were you a little skeptical
when you first arrived?
00:04:57.09\00:04:59.75
Were you not. . .
tell us about that.
00:04:59.76\00:05:01.72
I've been with Dr.
Nedley for about 10 years now,
00:05:02.30\00:05:06.21
and so I have a lot of
confidence in my doctor,
00:05:06.66\00:05:10.09
and December the fourth of 2009,
00:05:10.10\00:05:12.30
I went into his office, and my
00:05:12.66\00:05:14.63
condition was just
spiralling out of control,
00:05:14.64\00:05:17.51
And he said, I
know what you need,
00:05:18.00\00:05:20.48
and he told me about this
place, I'd never heard of it.
00:05:20.87\00:05:23.63
But I have had
lots of faith in him,
00:05:25.09\00:05:27.57
he's always done the right thing
00:05:27.58\00:05:29.72
so I said, Ok I'll go.
00:05:30.21\00:05:32.12
I told my husband,
he was very supportive,
00:05:33.06\00:05:35.18
and I said, Oh and it
happens to be vegan eating
00:05:35.42\00:05:37.87
but I can do anything
for three weeks, you know.
00:05:37.88\00:05:40.39
I got here,
00:05:40.66\00:05:41.84
thinking I
probably wouldn't like it,
00:05:42.30\00:05:44.30
but I need to
have better health.
00:05:44.31\00:05:46.09
And it was amazing,
00:05:46.57\00:05:48.03
I really like the food, I mean
00:05:48.18\00:05:50.51
it's easy to
cook! So I had no idea.
00:05:50.52\00:05:53.30
Now for our viewers, Dr. Nedley
00:05:53.48\00:05:56.09
is the president of Weimar
Center of health and education.
00:05:56.36\00:05:59.75
Dr. Nedley has a
practice in Oklahoma,
00:06:00.30\00:06:03.03
where you visit him,
00:06:03.48\00:06:05.21
and he is soon to be
moving on campus here with us,
00:06:05.54\00:06:09.00
and be with us
through and through.
00:06:09.45\00:06:12.54
So what else are you
looking at? There was three
00:06:13.09\00:06:15.66
things that you wanted to
mention in this interview.
00:06:15.67\00:06:18.48
I. . . the reason I
wanted to have good health
00:06:18.66\00:06:22.42
is three reasons:
00:06:23.18\00:06:24.45
Cody Lane, Addison
Brook, and Colton Mack.
00:06:25.00\00:06:28.09
I have three wonderful
grandchildren that keep me going
00:06:28.24\00:06:31.51
age range from 4 months
to almost three years old.
00:06:32.06\00:06:35.57
So you know I'm busy!
00:06:35.72\00:06:37.30
And I like to have them
all three at once if I can,
00:06:37.60\00:06:40.39
well my health, I really
would have to plan around
00:06:40.48\00:06:44.48
keeping my children, and
I want to see them everyday,
00:06:45.27\00:06:47.33
but I would have
to rest up and plan.
00:06:47.57\00:06:49.54
I would have more
energy when I would see them,
00:06:50.75\00:06:53.06
because you just
can't keep from it,
00:06:53.07\00:06:54.66
but I would just be
exhausted after they'd leave.
00:06:55.15\00:06:58.48
And I didn't
want to feel that way,
00:06:59.00\00:07:00.60
because as they get
older I'm going to be
00:07:01.18\00:07:03.03
doing more outdoor
activities with them,
00:07:03.04\00:07:04.69
And they're everything to
me, and I will do whatever
00:07:05.15\00:07:08.30
it takes to be able to keep
up with those grandchildren.
00:07:08.31\00:07:11.63
That's a good motivation.
00:07:12.15\00:07:14.09
- It is, very much.
00:07:14.15\00:07:15.45
Now I want to talk about
00:07:15.46\00:07:16.48
something that we
haven't touched on.
00:07:16.49\00:07:18.03
I want to talk about depression.
00:07:18.51\00:07:20.18
And I want to talk
about that because when
00:07:20.84\00:07:23.06
I came to Weimar I
was depressed as well,
00:07:23.07\00:07:25.12
and I recognize
that a lot of our
00:07:25.57\00:07:27.87
guests here are depressed,
00:07:28.21\00:07:29.48
who wouldn't be
having all this sicknesses?
00:07:29.49\00:07:31.57
Think you're going to
die, you don't know whether
00:07:32.06\00:07:33.81
you're going to go blind,
or what's going to happen.
00:07:33.82\00:07:35.75
How has that faired for you?
00:07:36.15\00:07:38.21
I really didn't
come here with the
00:07:39.27\00:07:42.27
idea of working on so
much, I though well it'll
00:07:42.72\00:07:45.21
take care of itself with
some of the other things.
00:07:45.22\00:07:47.69
My spirits are so much higher,
00:07:48.39\00:07:50.57
the spiritual lift that
you get here from the staff
00:07:50.78\00:07:55.66
and the people that
come, it's. . . I. . .
00:07:56.03\00:07:58.69
I got more than I thought I was
00:07:59.09\00:08:00.81
going to get,
that's a lot better.
00:08:00.82\00:08:02.75
And I realize I need
even more work in that area
00:08:02.76\00:08:05.48
where I had settled for just ok.
00:08:05.72\00:08:07.87
And I think now
I'm going to be great,
00:08:08.30\00:08:10.48
so it's much better.
00:08:10.49\00:08:11.60
Praise God.
00:08:11.81\00:08:13.00
You know, and I
see that in your eyes,
00:08:13.72\00:08:15.75
and your demeanor
00:08:15.76\00:08:16.87
and I know Dr. Nedley is
going to be very pleased.
00:08:17.12\00:08:19.60
Oh yes, he will be very pleased.
00:08:19.66\00:08:21.09
And your grandchildren are
going to benefit tremendously.
00:08:21.18\00:08:23.72
They can't wait
for me to get home!
00:08:23.75\00:08:25.21
So the food is good, you
talked about the walking,
00:08:26.42\00:08:29.84
how were you treated here
over all by everyone on staff?
00:08:30.42\00:08:34.09
Just wonderful,
the staff is. . .
00:08:34.30\00:08:36.72
they believe in healthy eating,
00:08:37.27\00:08:40.24
they live that life,
they're a great example,
00:08:40.54\00:08:43.57
it's a very good staff here.
00:08:43.87\00:08:45.72
I can't say enough about
the support from all of them,
00:08:45.87\00:08:49.60
and you feel
comfortable with them,
00:08:49.81\00:08:52.12
you're not being
pushed to do anything
00:08:52.13\00:08:54.45
that you dont' want to do.
00:08:54.69\00:08:55.78
They make it so easy.
00:08:56.06\00:08:57.24
So they have these events
00:08:57.42\00:08:59.84
and programs throughout
the day, you can attend or not?
00:09:00.09\00:09:03.15
Yes, yes, if you
don't feel well. . .
00:09:03.30\00:09:06.09
I know there was one
00:09:06.10\00:09:07.48
segment that I
missed part of a day,
00:09:07.72\00:09:09.54
and I felt so bad about
it and I told them I said,
00:09:09.55\00:09:12.00
I was just really
tired when I got here,
00:09:12.24\00:09:14.03
and I was just resting.
00:09:14.04\00:09:15.21
And they said, Oh that's fine,
rest when you need to rest.
00:09:15.22\00:09:17.48
So I was like, great!
00:09:17.78\00:09:19.48
But I did, I. . .
00:09:19.78\00:09:22.12
I didn't feel
any pressure at all,
00:09:22.39\00:09:24.33
you have a
schedule that you go by,
00:09:24.51\00:09:27.72
and you just
attend those things,
00:09:28.27\00:09:29.87
and like I said if you
don't feel well that day,
00:09:29.88\00:09:32.30
then you'll stay in, and try
the next day, so it was easy.
00:09:32.72\00:09:36.21
Good I'm glad to hear that.
00:09:36.66\00:09:38.21
Well Theresa, I wish you well,
00:09:38.81\00:09:40.60
and God bless
you in your endeavor,
00:09:41.15\00:09:43.12
And say hello to those
00:09:43.60\00:09:44.60
grandchildren for
me when you get home.
00:09:44.61\00:09:45.60
I will thank you so much.
00:09:45.61\00:09:46.78

00:10:44.78\00:10:46.12
Welcome back friends, and
in our studio as I promised
00:11:03.87\00:11:06.78
Dr. Clarence Ing,
how are you Doctor?
00:11:07.45\00:11:09.24
Great to be here Ron.
00:11:09.42\00:11:10.48
It's always a
pleasure to have you
00:11:10.57\00:11:12.33
and we want to
talk about Theresa,
00:11:12.78\00:11:15.27
but. . .
00:11:16.18\00:11:17.24
before we talk
about the good news,
00:11:17.25\00:11:19.18
I'd like to talk a
little bit about the past,
00:11:19.36\00:11:21.69
and how she was
when she got here,
00:11:22.15\00:11:24.36
because my senses were she was
depressed and a little bit down,
00:11:24.39\00:11:28.45
and wasn't too
energetic. Can you elaborate?
00:11:29.00\00:11:33.24
Well yes, I guess not
being energetic, you know one of
00:11:34.03\00:11:36.84
the questions we ask the
00:11:36.85\00:11:38.24
people on the
forms they fill out
00:11:38.25\00:11:40.00
exercise,
00:11:40.54\00:11:41.75
do you exercise? Were you
exercising before you came here?
00:11:42.30\00:11:45.15
You know what
type, how much and so on.
00:11:45.60\00:11:49.21
And so I noticed on my
notes on her I wrote down ADL,
00:11:49.48\00:11:53.57
that stands for
Activities of Daily Living,
00:11:54.15\00:11:56.57
which is a nice way of
saying, Not exercising.
00:11:56.58\00:11:59.21
And so she was not exercising.
00:11:59.60\00:12:01.81
So she had no
exercise in her life?
00:12:01.84\00:12:04.42
Yes, she was not exercising
in the last. . . you know. . .
00:12:04.45\00:12:06.51
well who knows how
long before she got here.
00:12:06.66\00:12:08.57
And that could be one of the
00:12:08.66\00:12:10.18
reasons why she
ended up coming here
00:12:10.19\00:12:12.00
with. . .
00:12:12.21\00:12:13.36
correct me if I'm
wrong, high blood pressure,
00:12:13.37\00:12:15.84
diabetes, - Right.
00:12:16.03\00:12:17.33
obesity, - Right.
00:12:17.66\00:12:19.12
depression, - Right.
00:12:19.42\00:12:20.63
and some
disease other than that?
00:12:21.69\00:12:23.78
Oh yes, she had something
called ulcerative colitis.
00:12:23.84\00:12:26.15
And what is that?
00:12:26.30\00:12:27.33
Well this is kind
of an inflammation or
00:12:27.48\00:12:29.60
irritation of the bowel,
the gastro-intestinal tract
00:12:29.61\00:12:32.42
specially the
colon, the large intestine.
00:12:32.54\00:12:34.33
And people are often
times on medicine for this
00:12:35.03\00:12:40.30
and they get cramps,
00:12:40.33\00:12:41.60
and diarrea and
things like this.
00:12:41.61\00:12:43.66
the kind of things
that you don't want to have.
00:12:43.81\00:12:46.21
They're on this
for many many years,
00:12:46.69\00:12:48.87
and we've been able
00:12:48.88\00:12:50.09
to help patients with this
problem quite successfully.
00:12:50.36\00:12:52.69
Now have we helped
her with this problem?
00:12:52.84\00:12:54.78
When she came here
she was fairly well
00:12:54.87\00:12:56.87
controlled with the
medication that she was using,
00:12:56.88\00:12:59.45
and she and I talked about
this and when she goes home
00:13:00.03\00:13:02.75
she's going to see now with the
00:13:03.21\00:13:04.72
changes in her
lifestyle and her diet
00:13:04.73\00:13:06.57
if maybe she can
decrease the amount of
00:13:07.06\00:13:09.27
medication that she's
on, and get off of it.
00:13:09.28\00:13:11.69
In our experience this
is usually what happens.
00:13:12.06\00:13:14.00
Now she'll do that with
her primary care physician
00:13:14.21\00:13:17.81
back at home, she won't
converse with you about it?
00:13:18.36\00:13:21.09
Well, you know
she can, because when
00:13:21.18\00:13:23.54
the patients that
I care for go home
00:13:23.55\00:13:25.87
they have my personal
home telephone number,
00:13:26.36\00:13:29.72
as well as having my
email so they have access to me,
00:13:30.09\00:13:33.54
that's my commitment to them,
00:13:33.78\00:13:35.45
I'm willing to help
you, if you need me call me.
00:13:35.46\00:13:38.12
And I don't say you do
have to call before six o-clock
00:13:38.39\00:13:43.30
in the evening, you can call
me anytime in the day or night.
00:13:43.66\00:13:46.24
Well I know you two have been
on the phone until midnight,
00:13:46.27\00:13:48.81
so I know that's the truth.
00:13:49.21\00:13:50.87
So let's talk
about the good news now,
00:13:51.21\00:13:53.21
is that it as far as all the
00:13:53.48\00:13:54.84
problems that she
had when she got here?
00:13:54.85\00:13:56.75
Right, and one of the
ways we evaluate their problems
00:13:56.84\00:14:00.63
is seeing how long she
can do her treadmill time,
00:14:01.45\00:14:05.12
so she did her treadmill
00:14:05.13\00:14:06.78
- How long did
she do her first trip?
00:14:07.03\00:14:08.36
I think her first treadmill
was about three minutes,
00:14:08.39\00:14:10.42
and then the one
that she did. . .
00:14:10.43\00:14:11.51
her second
treadmill, she increased her
00:14:12.18\00:14:14.27
time from three
minutes to five minutes.
00:14:14.28\00:14:16.36
And I also noticed as I
was reviewing her record,
00:14:16.69\00:14:20.57
that her heart rate. . .
00:14:20.81\00:14:22.15
was a lower heart rate
as she went along this time,
00:14:22.60\00:14:26.42
so her fitness level has
00:14:26.57\00:14:28.00
increased and
she is walking more.
00:14:28.01\00:14:29.69
And that's just in two weeks!
00:14:29.84\00:14:31.54
That's in two
weeks. - That's incredible.
00:14:31.55\00:14:33.63
You know the other thing
though, diabetes with. . .
00:14:33.78\00:14:36.18
diabetes that
she has, and so many
00:14:36.63\00:14:38.69
people in the
United States have,
00:14:38.70\00:14:40.66
what about 24 million
people in the US have diabetes,
00:14:41.45\00:14:44.42
about 54 million people
have what we call pre-diabetes,
00:14:44.87\00:14:47.75
unless they make some changes,
00:14:48.24\00:14:49.57
they are at much higher
risk for developing diabetes.
00:14:49.58\00:14:51.87
What about. . . and I hear those
numbers too, the 24 and the 50,
00:14:52.03\00:14:56.30
what about the 150-180
million that are overweight
00:14:56.39\00:15:00.12
are they on the
verge of being diabetic?
00:15:00.48\00:15:03.66
Well. . .
00:15:04.21\00:15:05.36
Obesity or being
overweight is a very
00:15:06.12\00:15:08.42
definite risk factor
for getting diabetes,
00:15:08.43\00:15:11.03
and so this is very very true,
00:15:11.42\00:15:13.81
we look at the adult
00:15:13.82\00:15:14.84
Americans here in
the United States,
00:15:14.85\00:15:16.30
two thirds of adult
Americans are overweight,
00:15:16.75\00:15:19.45
and one third
are considered obese,
00:15:19.46\00:15:21.48
I don't like to call people
overweight, I say you know,
00:15:21.81\00:15:24.78
You're just too short,
00:15:25.12\00:15:26.30
you need to grow
a little bit taller.
00:15:26.31\00:15:27.78
But unfortunately by the time
I meet them their usually. . .
00:15:28.12\00:15:31.63
well their way past
20, they're 40s and 50s,
00:15:32.18\00:15:35.27
I can't help them grow taller,
00:15:35.57\00:15:37.15
so we usually work with
helping them lose weight.
00:15:37.16\00:15:39.51
We've been able to do that
00:15:40.06\00:15:41.21
very
successfully here at Weimar,
00:15:41.22\00:15:42.60
we've had
people come in and lose
00:15:42.61\00:15:44.06
50 pounds, 75 pounds, 100, 150,
00:15:44.57\00:15:47.69
and they keep it off.
00:15:48.06\00:15:49.27
Now we have a guy
on the program now,
00:15:49.28\00:15:51.42
who we did interview
a couple of weeks ago,
00:15:51.87\00:15:55.12
that's lost 47
pounds in two weeks.
00:15:55.48\00:15:58.42
That's right, that's right.
00:15:58.54\00:15:59.84
Well we're going to
get back to him. . .
00:16:00.03\00:16:02.30
but as far as Theresa now
00:16:02.31\00:16:03.66
she seems more
alive and excited,
00:16:04.15\00:16:07.84
and how is her
diabetes? Is that in check?
00:16:08.42\00:16:11.75
Her diabetes is
under better control. . .
00:16:11.81\00:16:14.42
With medication.
00:16:14.54\00:16:15.78
With medication, but
she's using less medicine
00:16:15.79\00:16:17.81
and she's under better
control, and the other things is
00:16:18.36\00:16:20.60
I think her mood is improved.
00:16:21.03\00:16:23.27
Oh tremendously.
00:16:23.36\00:16:24.42
That's one of the
things we find with exercise.
00:16:24.43\00:16:27.66
Exercise not only helps
you to control your diabetes,
00:16:28.15\00:16:30.75
but exercise is a natural
00:16:31.30\00:16:34.27
tranquilizer, and
a anti-depressant,
00:16:35.00\00:16:37.36
it does both for you.
00:16:37.37\00:16:38.69
So those little endorphins
00:16:39.12\00:16:40.66
release through
the body, and we. . .
00:16:40.67\00:16:42.81
it's kind of like they call
the runners high so to speak.
00:16:43.27\00:16:46.42
Yes it helps you to
feel better, it really does.
00:16:46.51\00:16:48.15
- Feels better.
00:16:48.18\00:16:49.30
You know you think more
clearly you function better
00:16:49.42\00:16:52.27
everything goes
along a lot better.
00:16:52.48\00:16:54.69
So she's doing
better in exercise,
00:16:55.24\00:16:57.36
diabetes is doing
better, less medication,
00:16:57.81\00:17:00.66
she's done
better on the treadmill.
00:17:01.03\00:17:03.03
What other things?
She's lost a little weight.
00:17:03.27\00:17:05.45
She's lost some weight,
and I think she's also learning
00:17:05.57\00:17:08.84
the importance of all these
00:17:09.39\00:17:11.12
things in
managing her lifestyle.
00:17:11.13\00:17:13.12
So. . . for weight loss,
00:17:13.60\00:17:16.21
one of the keys of course is
00:17:17.45\00:17:19.51
people who eat a
plant based diet,
00:17:20.06\00:17:21.84
it's easier for
them to lose weight,
00:17:21.85\00:17:23.69
Actually people who
eat a plant based diet,
00:17:24.00\00:17:26.45
weigh less than people who
eat the standard American diet.
00:17:26.75\00:17:29.66
You know what the
standard American diet is?
00:17:31.87\00:17:34.30
SAD right? - SAD right.
00:17:34.48\00:17:36.63
Sad! High in calories
00:17:36.84\00:17:39.69
high in refined carbohydrates,
00:17:40.15\00:17:41.75
high in fat, and
high in animal protein.
00:17:42.15\00:17:45.00
And with all of those things
together with the non-exercising
00:17:45.15\00:17:48.75
sedentary diet,
00:17:49.15\00:17:51.12
people are. . .
00:17:52.72\00:17:53.72
a illness waiting to happen,
00:17:54.42\00:17:55.81
like diabetes,
and heart disease,
00:17:56.12\00:17:57.78
and high blood pressure,
strokes and all of these things.
00:17:57.79\00:18:00.69
And the other
thing is with the number
00:18:00.84\00:18:02.75
of people in
America who are overweight,
00:18:02.76\00:18:04.66
that also increases
their risk for cancer as well,
00:18:04.87\00:18:07.66
so one of the keys to good
00:18:08.24\00:18:09.81
health is--
keeping your weight down.
00:18:09.82\00:18:12.18
And the best way is don't
gain it in the first place,
00:18:13.78\00:18:17.24
but if you have gained it,
00:18:17.48\00:18:19.00
we find that going to the
00:18:19.24\00:18:21.06
plant based diet
is really helpful,
00:18:21.07\00:18:23.42
and walking three miles
a day, or four miles a day
00:18:23.81\00:18:28.09
six times a week is great.
00:18:28.42\00:18:30.09
And another important
point in weight management is
00:18:30.36\00:18:33.03
eliminating the
evening meal, in other words,
00:18:33.63\00:18:36.03
don't eat anything after about
two or three in the afternoon.
00:18:36.04\00:18:38.78
- Yes.
00:18:38.79\00:18:39.81
It makes it a lot
easier for the people to
00:18:39.82\00:18:41.84
lose the weight,
and it makes it a lot
00:18:42.15\00:18:44.39
easier for the people
to keep the weight off.
00:18:44.40\00:18:47.03
Now I know there are a lot of
00:18:47.66\00:18:49.27
viewers out
there that are saying,
00:18:49.28\00:18:51.09
Well I can't get
away for 18 days,
00:18:51.15\00:18:53.48
and the NEWSTART program is just
00:18:53.49\00:18:55.60
too much for me
to absorb right now,
00:18:56.09\00:18:58.84
we do have a reversing
diabetes and obesity program
00:18:59.15\00:19:03.57
coming up here at Weimar,
00:19:04.12\00:19:05.72
May the 31st, 2010
00:19:06.27\00:19:09.60
and that will go
through June 1, 2, and 3.
00:19:09.87\00:19:13.21
So for those of you
who would like to attend
00:19:13.66\00:19:16.00
a shorter program, please
feel free to give us a call.
00:19:16.24\00:19:19.60
As far as Theresa
goes, now when she goes home,
00:19:20.33\00:19:23.36
she can call you most
anytime for some direction,
00:19:25.24\00:19:28.48
but she's going to be
talking to her doctor.
00:19:29.03\00:19:31.54
Yes, she will return to
the care of her primary doctor,
00:19:31.78\00:19:33.84
Do they call. .
. do these doctors
00:19:34.06\00:19:35.78
call you for
consultation, or. . .
00:19:35.79\00:19:37.57
Very rarely,
00:19:39.24\00:19:41.18
but if they did, if they
want to I'd be happy to talk
00:19:41.63\00:19:44.63
to them and tell them what
their patient has been through
00:19:44.64\00:19:47.81
and what our approach is.
00:19:48.42\00:19:50.09
Would that be a benefit to our
guests if their doctors called?
00:19:50.54\00:19:54.33
It really depends on
the doctor and his interest,
00:19:56.60\00:19:59.03
many of the doctors--
some of the doctors are very
00:19:59.30\00:20:01.27
interested in what's happened
00:20:01.28\00:20:02.39
to the patient,
they want to know
00:20:02.40\00:20:03.63
what was accomplished
and they're interested.
00:20:04.27\00:20:07.03
We have a
cardiologist in our area, here,
00:20:07.30\00:20:10.42
in the
Sacramento area, who refers
00:20:10.84\00:20:13.15
because he knows that
00:20:13.60\00:20:15.60
we can help them, and
he's been very pleased with
00:20:16.09\00:20:18.84
the way the patients do
when they return to his care,
00:20:19.57\00:20:21.87
he's happy with the
way the patients are doing,
00:20:22.54\00:20:24.87
he's very interested in that.
00:20:24.88\00:20:26.36
And I've talked with him
00:20:26.48\00:20:27.66
personally about
several patients.
00:20:27.67\00:20:29.33
And we also have
doctors who come in attendance
00:20:29.69\00:20:32.42
to observe to
learn this lifestyle,
00:20:32.72\00:20:35.12
I've witnessed
that myself. - Right.
00:20:35.57\00:20:37.57
Is that pretty common?
00:20:37.87\00:20:39.72
It's not in every program,
00:20:40.27\00:20:42.33
but yes we do have
professionals come in here
00:20:42.34\00:20:45.72
and they want to
see what we're doing
00:20:46.21\00:20:47.60
and how we do it,
and what the results are.
00:20:47.61\00:20:49.27
And invariably when they
see what happens to the guests,
00:20:49.60\00:20:52.27
they're very
pleased and excited,
00:20:52.72\00:20:54.03
and they say that's
00:20:54.04\00:20:55.12
something that maybe I
00:20:55.13\00:20:56.12
should become
more involved with.
00:20:56.13\00:20:57.51
Dr. Ing we're
running out of time,
00:20:58.00\00:20:59.69
thanks for being
here, folks don't go away,
00:20:59.84\00:21:02.51
we'll be right back.
00:21:02.52\00:21:03.69
Hi and welcome to
NEWSTART NOW. My name is Cathy,
00:21:18.54\00:21:21.18
and today we have
with us Dr. Eddie Ramirez.
00:21:21.36\00:21:23.78
Doctor thank you for joining us.
00:21:24.12\00:21:25.54
Thank you for inviting me
to the house of the NEWSTART.
00:21:25.75\00:21:28.27
Oh well good, I'm
glad that you're here,
00:21:28.51\00:21:29.84
what are you going
00:21:29.85\00:21:30.84
to share with us
today about dress?
00:21:30.85\00:21:32.09
This sounds interesting.
00:21:32.10\00:21:33.18
That's right,
we're going to talk a
00:21:33.19\00:21:35.33
little bit about
the physiology of dress.
00:21:35.34\00:21:37.72
You know if you go to
any supermarket today,
00:21:38.51\00:21:41.36
you're going to see a lot of
00:21:41.81\00:21:43.81
magazines close
to the checkout line,
00:21:43.82\00:21:46.42
and their all the time
talking about how to be sexy,
00:21:46.78\00:21:50.30
and how to do this and do that.
00:21:50.51\00:21:52.45
But I'm sure that they're not
00:21:53.00\00:21:55.24
aware of the
physiology of dress.
00:21:55.25\00:21:57.69
- I'm sure they're not.
00:21:58.00\00:21:59.36
The way that our
body works, is that we
00:21:59.81\00:22:02.69
have a very complex
network of blood vessels.
00:22:02.70\00:22:06.00
The body needs to have
an optimum temperature,
00:22:07.54\00:22:11.27
in order for
the functions of the
00:22:11.45\00:22:14.18
body to be on the optimum level.
00:22:14.19\00:22:16.66
There are
certain things, very tiny
00:22:17.15\00:22:19.78
little particles in
our bodies called enzymes
00:22:19.79\00:22:23.24
and the enzymes are
those substances that help us
00:22:24.81\00:22:28.51
to do chemical reactions in
our body in an efficient way.
00:22:29.06\00:22:33.27
Now those enzymes are
related to the temperature.
00:22:33.72\00:22:39.27
When the enzyme doesn't
have the right temperature,
00:22:39.69\00:22:43.27
then it cannot do it's
function in the proper way,
00:22:43.57\00:22:46.36
things go slower
if it's too high,
00:22:46.63\00:22:49.18
things go slow if it's too low.
00:22:49.19\00:22:51.36
That's why the body
constantly is working
00:22:51.69\00:22:54.72
to keep our body temperature
at the optimum level.
00:22:55.06\00:22:59.24
Now unfortunately
we live in a world
00:23:00.06\00:23:03.63
that has a lot of
variations in the temperatures,
00:23:04.00\00:23:07.66
so our Creator designed a
special system in our body
00:23:08.21\00:23:13.45
to try to compensate that.
00:23:13.81\00:23:16.30
There's a
complex network of blood
00:23:17.54\00:23:20.75
vessels in the
surface of our skin,
00:23:20.76\00:23:24.06
and those blood
vessels open and close,
00:23:24.54\00:23:27.72
according to the
temperature of the outside.
00:23:28.09\00:23:31.33
In that way lets say
it's getting too hot,
00:23:32.12\00:23:36.60
then the blood vessels close,
00:23:37.15\00:23:39.54
that means that less
blood is running through there,
00:23:40.24\00:23:43.18
less heat is
running through there,
00:23:43.48\00:23:45.63
and that heat
concentrates in the inside.
00:23:45.64\00:23:48.15
The opposite
happens when it's too cold,
00:23:48.87\00:23:51.81
that's right, then
those blood vessels open
00:23:52.21\00:23:54.63
and then that blood can
come out and warm up the skin.
00:23:54.84\00:23:59.63
Now especially in certain
00:24:00.18\00:24:02.81
areas of the
world where it's cold,
00:24:02.82\00:24:06.45
then in those places, if
you are not dressed properly,
00:24:07.00\00:24:13.24
you get yourself in trouble.
00:24:13.66\00:24:15.36
The body can compensate
up to a certain point,
00:24:16.06\00:24:19.72
and if you are not helping
00:24:20.51\00:24:22.51
your body with
the proper clothing,
00:24:22.78\00:24:26.60
then your body is doing extra
00:24:27.15\00:24:29.60
efforts to try
to warm up things.
00:24:29.61\00:24:32.39
We have noticed
that things like PMS
00:24:33.15\00:24:36.36
you can aggravate the PMS if you
00:24:36.75\00:24:39.84
for example don't
cover up your legs.
00:24:39.85\00:24:43.36
Also there's
reflex action, for example
00:24:44.21\00:24:49.12
the soles of
your foot are related
00:24:49.48\00:24:52.87
to your sinuses, your brain,
your lungs, and your bladder.
00:24:53.42\00:25:00.75
That's why if
you walk barefooted,
00:25:01.21\00:25:04.03
what happens to your nose?
00:25:04.27\00:25:05.36
- It starts to run.
00:25:05.37\00:25:06.69
Because of that reflex
action that happens there. . .
00:25:06.70\00:25:10.33
Now is that totally barefooted?
00:25:10.45\00:25:12.27
What about flip flops? A
lot of people wear flip flops.
00:25:12.28\00:25:15.33
If the feet are cold,
00:25:15.34\00:25:18.27
then you're going to
have that reflex action.
00:25:18.45\00:25:22.39
So as a general rule,
00:25:22.66\00:25:24.54
limbs should be thoroughly
covered, that's right.
00:25:25.57\00:25:29.66
Of course using
logic, if it's too warm
00:25:29.84\00:25:32.69
of course you need
to remove the layers.
00:25:33.00\00:25:36.03
So we're going
to use common sense,
00:25:36.30\00:25:38.42
and we're going to help our
body work in an optimum level,
00:25:38.54\00:25:42.75
and again we're not
talking here about morality,
00:25:42.84\00:25:44.84
that's another topic subject.
00:25:44.85\00:25:46.09
We're talking here
about our physiology,
00:25:46.27\00:25:48.45
you know this is the
way that our body works.
00:25:48.46\00:25:50.81
So, I'm going to challenge
our viewers to try it out,
00:25:51.30\00:25:55.45
make sure that they
are thoroughly covered and
00:25:56.00\00:25:58.36
they'll see the big
00:25:58.37\00:25:59.36
difference it
makes in their health.
00:25:59.37\00:26:01.21
Well that's neat,
so we need to make sure
00:26:01.45\00:26:03.27
we keep our
slippers on around the house,
00:26:03.28\00:26:05.03
and be careful when
we're outside walking around.
00:26:05.04\00:26:07.09
Thank you so
much for joining us,
00:26:07.30\00:26:08.84
for those of you
who would like more
00:26:09.15\00:26:10.87
information please
visit our website at:
00:26:10.88\00:26:12.81
and we'll have some
information for you there.
00:26:14.21\00:26:15.78
Thank you and God bless.
00:26:15.79\00:26:17.09
Modern views of
evolution stem all the way
00:26:25.00\00:26:27.39
back to theories
developed in the mid 1800s.
00:26:27.40\00:26:29.81
Out of the same time
period came ideas that shape
00:26:30.84\00:26:34.00
our educational system today.
00:26:34.21\00:26:36.24
The common school
movement for example,
00:26:37.24\00:26:39.12
saw schools more like a factory,
00:26:39.27\00:26:41.18
with students blindly memorizing
00:26:41.24\00:26:43.12
instruction rather than
thinking for themselves.
00:26:43.13\00:26:45.78
Their curriculum was
rigid and theoretical,
00:26:46.66\00:26:49.06
instead of being
flexible and practical,
00:26:49.51\00:26:51.63
It was designed to
conform the individual
00:26:52.18\00:26:54.54
into a specific
ideological mold,
00:26:54.63\00:26:57.24
that fit the needs of a old
industrial era, long since past.
00:26:57.60\00:27:01.06
Just like our view of
creation in six literal days,
00:27:02.69\00:27:05.81
we believe the Bible contains
an educational blueprint
00:27:06.12\00:27:10.06
radically different
from the one we see now.
00:27:10.33\00:27:12.63
Well friends
that's it for today,
00:27:25.69\00:27:27.48
thank you for joining us.
00:27:27.49\00:27:28.75
Perhaps you
have a friend though,
00:27:29.30\00:27:31.48
or family member,
00:27:31.49\00:27:32.57
that's sick with diabetes,
or obesity, or alcoholism,
00:27:32.78\00:27:37.18
or various types of cancer.
00:27:37.45\00:27:38.87
You could pick up that
phone and give us a call at:
00:27:39.33\00:27:41.78
You know Weimar's
NEWSTART program has
00:27:45.51\00:27:47.75
helps thousands of
people over the years,
00:27:47.76\00:27:50.21
and we can help your friend,
or your family member as well.
00:27:50.60\00:27:54.06
So pick up the phone
right now, pick up that phone,
00:27:54.42\00:27:57.03
give us a call at:
00:27:57.33\00:27:58.54
In the meantime,
God bless you immensely.
00:28:03.09\00:28:06.03
