Every year in America there
are over one million deaths
00:00:12.47\00:00:14.95
because of type 2
diabetes and chronic obesity.
00:00:14.98\00:00:18.01
This includes heart
attacks and strokes.
00:00:18.04\00:00:20.43
That's six and a half
747s crashing every day.
00:00:20.46\00:00:23.92
What's even more surprising
is that the fix is easy.
00:00:23.95\00:00:27.36
It's your lifestyle.
00:00:27.39\00:00:28.86
Wouldn't it be nice
if you could actually add
00:00:28.89\00:00:30.86
quality years to your life
00:00:30.89\00:00:32.19
rather than dying
one organ at a time?
00:00:32.22\00:00:34.94
Obesity and diabetes
00:00:34.97\00:00:36.32
are the cause of over
million deaths per year.
00:00:36.35\00:00:39.38
Most diseases are reversible
00:00:39.41\00:00:41.40
because most diseases
are lifestyle diseases,
00:00:41.43\00:00:44.35
especially type 2
diabetes and chronic obesity.
00:00:44.38\00:00:47.79
Seriously now
they can be reversed
00:00:47.82\00:00:50.05
and the quality of
your life can be renewed.
00:00:50.08\00:00:53.60

00:01:03.39\00:01:04.58

00:01:04.61\00:01:07.54
The Newstart programs
are simple and effective.
00:01:07.57\00:01:13.03
Hi, friends, and
welcome to another edition of
00:01:13.06\00:01:15.35
Newstart Now.
00:01:15.38\00:01:16.64
I'm your host Ron Giannoni.
00:01:16.67\00:01:19.17
In our studio we
have Marilyn Cotton.
00:01:19.20\00:01:22.31
And before I
introduce you to her,
00:01:22.34\00:01:24.84
let's take a look
when she first arrived
00:01:24.87\00:01:27.60
at our Newstart program.
00:01:27.63\00:01:32.12
Yes, this is my
third time with Weimar.
00:01:32.15\00:01:35.64
And I knew-- Not
only the reputation
00:01:35.67\00:01:39.63
from hearing about it
00:01:39.66\00:01:41.68
but I knew it
firsthand of what it can do
00:01:41.71\00:01:45.07
major relief for
a person's health.
00:01:45.10\00:01:49.67
I'm a musician by trade.
00:01:49.70\00:01:53.61
For 38 years I
worked with television
00:01:53.64\00:01:56.70
with George Vandeman.
00:01:56.73\00:01:58.52
Before that I
worked with George,
00:01:58.55\00:02:00.32
with Bill Fagal out of New York.
00:02:00.35\00:02:05.51
And playing the piano
became an impossibility.
00:02:05.54\00:02:11.67
I would strike a chord
00:02:11.70\00:02:13.37
and it would be the wrong notes.
00:02:13.40\00:02:16.93
I'm a singer and
many times I sang songs
00:02:16.96\00:02:20.33
that there was no
music written for.
00:02:20.36\00:02:22.64
So I had to play
for myself to sing.
00:02:22.67\00:02:26.07
And I couldn't do it suddenly.
00:02:26.10\00:02:30.01
I didn't know what to call it.
00:02:30.04\00:02:32.55
So I went to the
doctor to find out what--
00:02:32.58\00:02:35.29
What's wrong with my hands
00:02:35.32\00:02:37.67
that I can't
play the piano anymore
00:02:37.70\00:02:40.91
and it was
affecting my life work?
00:02:40.94\00:02:44.95
And so that's obviously
why I came to Weimar Institute.
00:02:44.98\00:02:51.81
I definitely will follow
00:02:51.84\00:02:55.90
the "rules'' of
the Newstart program,
00:02:55.93\00:02:59.75
particularly
where diet is concerned.
00:02:59.78\00:03:04.43
Welcome back, friends.
00:03:04.46\00:03:05.59
And as I
promised, Marilyn Cotton,
00:03:05.62\00:03:07.48
how are you, dear?
00:03:07.51\00:03:08.54
Oh, I'm so glad
to be here with you.
00:03:08.57\00:03:10.69
I'm so glad you're
willing to come here
00:03:10.72\00:03:13.56
and share with our audience.
00:03:13.59\00:03:15.44
Oh, what's not to
share-- Absolutely.
00:03:15.47\00:03:18.10
I mean, we're at Weimar
and which is the health capital
00:03:18.13\00:03:21.42
of the world.
00:03:21.45\00:03:22.51
Amen.
00:03:22.54\00:03:23.74
You know, I know that
you've been here before.
00:03:23.77\00:03:26.40
Yes, I have. How did you know?
00:03:26.43\00:03:28.86
Because I watched
your first interview.
00:03:28.89\00:03:32.03
Oh, my. Oh, dear.
00:03:32.06\00:03:35.36
And so tell us now, I
know that you're dealing
00:03:35.39\00:03:40.63
and our viewing
audience knows as well
00:03:40.66\00:03:43.71
with neuropathy.
00:03:43.74\00:03:45.13
Yes.
00:03:45.16\00:03:46.62
And you have an
unusual situation
00:03:46.65\00:03:48.84
and that most people get
neuropathy in their feet.
00:03:48.87\00:03:52.77
Their feet.
00:03:52.80\00:03:54.08
Tell us what's
going on with you?
00:03:54.11\00:03:55.63
I started with feeling like
there was a piece of bubblegum,
00:03:55.66\00:04:00.08
you know, how
when you step on a rock
00:04:00.11\00:04:02.34
or something hard and
you feel it in your shoe
00:04:02.37\00:04:05.83
but you can't
quite tell what it is.
00:04:05.86\00:04:07.78
Well, it felt like a lot
of gum behind those big toes.
00:04:07.81\00:04:11.70
And I couldn't figure
it out, for several weeks
00:04:11.73\00:04:16.24
I couldn't figure it out.
00:04:16.27\00:04:17.84
It turned out to be neuropathy.
00:04:17.87\00:04:20.69
Now I was not
diabetic at the time.
00:04:20.72\00:04:23.51
And it turned out, then later
we found that I was diabetic,
00:04:23.54\00:04:28.04
so this is termed
diabetic neuropathy.
00:04:28.07\00:04:30.86
Yes.
00:04:30.89\00:04:31.93
I have it in the feet
and clear up to the knees
00:04:31.96\00:04:35.60
and the legs and I
have it in the hands.
00:04:35.63\00:04:38.78
Unfortunately, I
miss my hands the most.
00:04:38.81\00:04:41.79
Yes.
00:04:41.82\00:04:42.86
Now you miss your hands
for a lot of reasons, I'm sure.
00:04:42.89\00:04:45.15
Lot of reasons.
00:04:45.18\00:04:47.10
It tricks me up if I try
to pick up a spoon or a glass,
00:04:47.13\00:04:52.04
I'm never sure that
I'm not going to drop it.
00:04:52.07\00:04:55.10
And you can imagine
what that feels like.
00:04:55.13\00:04:57.61
Yes. Only do I
ever want to imagine.
00:04:57.64\00:05:03.42
Well, I came to Weimar
to see what they can do
00:05:03.45\00:05:06.16
because I heard
such wonderful reports.
00:05:06.19\00:05:08.82
Yes.
00:05:08.85\00:05:09.88
From Doctor
Lukens and from others
00:05:09.91\00:05:11.86
about what Weimar can do
for a diabetic neuropathy.
00:05:11.89\00:05:15.93
Now you expressed and I
love the way you said this--
00:05:15.96\00:05:19.40
I wish I could
quote you word for word
00:05:19.43\00:05:22.67
but you expressed such a trust
00:05:22.70\00:05:26.53
in Doctor Lukens at
our Newstart clinic.
00:05:26.56\00:05:31.55
He has so dedicated
himself to this program
00:05:31.58\00:05:36.61
and I am the beneficiary.
00:05:36.64\00:05:39.68
And I. And you.
00:05:39.71\00:05:41.55
Yes.
00:05:41.58\00:05:42.71
I didn't tell you, I came
here in '05 for the first time.
00:05:42.74\00:05:46.55
Ah. Okay.
00:05:46.58\00:05:48.32
And then join staff
about a year later or so.
00:05:48.35\00:05:51.15
And you were here before I was.
00:05:51.18\00:05:53.09
Oh, okay.
00:05:53.12\00:05:54.16
Yeah. Yeah.
00:05:54.19\00:05:55.42
And the Lord has
blessed and I know--
00:05:55.45\00:05:58.09
Tremendously. Yeah.
00:05:58.12\00:05:59.69
Tell us about your experience
00:05:59.72\00:06:05.74
with the Lord blessing you.
00:06:05.77\00:06:07.92
How does that manifest?
00:06:07.95\00:06:11.34
How can I explain to you
00:06:11.37\00:06:13.25
what God has done
for me personally?
00:06:13.28\00:06:16.22
I wish you could.
00:06:16.25\00:06:17.56
I wish I had the words
but He and His precious Son,
00:06:17.59\00:06:23.05
Jesus and the Holy Spirit,
00:06:23.08\00:06:25.79
we don't want to
leave any of the three out
00:06:25.82\00:06:27.88
because they're all responsible.
00:06:27.91\00:06:29.97
Amen.
00:06:30.00\00:06:31.55
They have given
me such hope for this
00:06:31.58\00:06:35.03
that for the
healing of this neuropathy.
00:06:35.06\00:06:38.73
And I intend to
stay with the program
00:06:38.76\00:06:41.38
to do what I can to
assist Doctor Lukens
00:06:41.41\00:06:44.90
in what he's
trying to do with me.
00:06:44.93\00:06:46.93
Yes. Yeah.
00:06:46.96\00:06:48.75
And by the way do you know that
I will be following up with you
00:06:48.78\00:06:53.29
on a monthly
basis if you choose,
00:06:53.32\00:06:57.16
one another things, one
of my jobs that I do here
00:06:57.19\00:07:00.16
at the Newstart program
00:07:00.19\00:07:01.78
is I'm what they
call a lifestyle coach.
00:07:01.81\00:07:04.94
I didn't know that.
00:07:04.97\00:07:06.31
So I'll be calling you and
saying, "How are you doing?"
00:07:06.34\00:07:09.89
Thank you for sharing that,
I'll be prepared for your call.
00:07:09.92\00:07:14.76
And my intention
is simply to motivate,
00:07:14.79\00:07:18.67
help people stay on track.
00:07:18.70\00:07:21.50
And do whatever I
can to be inspirational.
00:07:21.53\00:07:27.86
So I look forward to chatting
with you over the phone.
00:07:27.89\00:07:31.00
That is a big job. It is.
00:07:31.03\00:07:33.71
And I will
appreciate every call you make.
00:07:33.74\00:07:36.49
Absolutely. Good.
00:07:36.52\00:07:38.16
Now tell us being the third time
00:07:38.19\00:07:40.69
that you've been here,
00:07:40.72\00:07:42.20
I know you had expectations,
00:07:42.23\00:07:45.31
have your
expectations, one been met?
00:07:45.34\00:07:49.51
And what has
changed since day one,
00:07:49.54\00:07:52.92
you've been here
about 17, 18 days.
00:07:52.95\00:07:56.66
I've seen improvement
overall in the program.
00:07:56.69\00:08:00.11
But this time it was fun to
have my husband come with me.
00:08:00.14\00:08:04.43
And to experience the same
things that I'm experiencing.
00:08:04.46\00:08:08.51
It will make him
more understandable
00:08:08.54\00:08:10.87
of what we are
trying to accomplish.
00:08:10.90\00:08:15.83
He has always been
my greatest supporter
00:08:15.86\00:08:19.08
in every field.
00:08:19.11\00:08:20.44
And I'm just glad
that he could experience it
00:08:20.47\00:08:23.81
with me this time.
00:08:23.84\00:08:25.16
This was a special program
that Weimar gave to couples
00:08:25.19\00:08:30.81
if they wanted to come
as a couple and receive,
00:08:30.84\00:08:36.14
let's face it,
financial discounts.
00:08:36.17\00:08:39.05
Yes. Having a
second person here.
00:08:39.08\00:08:41.31
Yes.
00:08:41.34\00:08:42.81
And that's been most wonderful.
00:08:42.84\00:08:45.07
We don't do it too
often 'cause it's you know--
00:08:45.10\00:08:49.19
It's expensive.
00:08:49.22\00:08:50.26
It does get expensive,
there's a lot involved.
00:08:50.29\00:08:54.55
Which is a good intro
into who are the people
00:08:54.58\00:08:59.61
that you've been meeting with.
00:08:59.64\00:09:02.66
I know you've met
with the chaplain,
00:09:02.69\00:09:05.42
the exercise
therapist, who else?
00:09:05.45\00:09:08.55
Who's been a part
of your life here?
00:09:08.58\00:09:09.72
We have had a
wonderful nursing staff
00:09:09.75\00:09:12.88
that is here 24 hours a day.
00:09:12.91\00:09:16.39
And these girls and
sometimes the gentlemen
00:09:16.42\00:09:19.72
are on hand at all hours
00:09:19.75\00:09:22.60
to seemingly
fulfill our every need.
00:09:22.63\00:09:28.01
The doctors are here 24 hours.
00:09:28.04\00:09:30.89
They live in the
campus as you know.
00:09:30.92\00:09:32.73
They live right on campus.
00:09:32.76\00:09:33.95
Yes. Yes.
00:09:33.98\00:09:35.04
And they are moment away.
00:09:35.07\00:09:37.03
And it's been just marvelous
getting acquainted with them
00:09:37.06\00:09:40.64
personally as
well as professionally.
00:09:40.67\00:09:43.82
Do the doctors spend
enough time with you?
00:09:43.85\00:09:47.34
Oh, absolutely.
00:09:47.37\00:09:49.52
I don't think I
have ever received
00:09:49.55\00:09:52.55
a push out the door
00:09:52.58\00:09:54.10
but Doctor Lukens
is my personal doctor.
00:09:54.13\00:09:57.96
Yeah.
00:09:57.99\00:09:59.02
And he has just
given and given up himself.
00:09:59.05\00:10:02.76
He and Lorena, his little wife,
00:10:02.79\00:10:04.98
as you know are
missionaries in Africa.
00:10:05.01\00:10:08.55
And they come home
long enough to thrill us
00:10:08.58\00:10:12.94
with helping us get well.
00:10:12.97\00:10:15.02
Yeah.
00:10:15.05\00:10:16.10
And that means everything,
having trust in your doctor.
00:10:16.13\00:10:20.46
He is my doctor
and very good friend
00:10:20.49\00:10:24.29
and I've just
learned so much from him
00:10:24.32\00:10:27.97
both with regards to my health
00:10:28.00\00:10:32.06
on this physical planet
and my health with the Lord.
00:10:32.09\00:10:36.44
So we prayed a lot together,
we spend time together.
00:10:36.47\00:10:40.67
And I actually work in
the clinic during the week.
00:10:40.70\00:10:44.43
Yes, I've seen you there. Yeah.
00:10:44.46\00:10:46.76
And I must tell you
that this is the first time
00:10:46.79\00:10:50.65
I have
experienced having my doctor,
00:10:50.68\00:10:54.60
my professional doctor
invite me into his home
00:10:54.63\00:10:58.90
to show me how he
cooks with his wife.
00:10:58.93\00:11:01.90
It was just precious. Yeah.
00:11:01.93\00:11:03.49
And he had-- Oh, there
must have been 35 of us
00:11:03.52\00:11:06.73
over the other night,
giving us new recipes,
00:11:06.76\00:11:09.85
showing us how to
make them and try that.
00:11:09.88\00:11:14.11
He didn't even invite me. Uh-oh.
00:11:14.14\00:11:16.37
But you know, I've been
there, done that as they say.
00:11:16.40\00:11:19.72
But yeah it's wonderful
that you had that experience.
00:11:19.75\00:11:22.66
It was.
00:11:22.69\00:11:23.75
And they're
both very good cooks.
00:11:23.78\00:11:26.06
Yes, they are.
00:11:26.09\00:11:27.21
And I said to him,
00:11:27.24\00:11:29.01
"Does your wife back
you up in these things?
00:11:29.04\00:11:32.81
Did she--Is she as
thrilled over the prospect
00:11:32.84\00:11:38.94
of what they can do?"
00:11:38.97\00:11:40.35
And he said, "Oh, my
goodness, she looks after me.
00:11:40.38\00:11:42.85
She gets after me."
00:11:42.88\00:11:44.84
She is wow.
00:11:44.87\00:11:48.26
She must be a tremendous lady.
00:11:48.29\00:11:50.30
A vegan
individual, she is strong.
00:11:50.33\00:11:53.74
Yeah, she must be.
00:11:53.77\00:11:55.21
Marilyn, I like to
thank you for being here.
00:11:55.24\00:11:57.75
It's been such a pleasure
to be able to talk with you.
00:11:57.78\00:12:00.74
Thank you. Thank you.
00:12:00.77\00:12:03.45
I'll be talking to
you in about a month.
00:12:03.48\00:12:05.85
I'll wait for
that call. You bet.
00:12:05.88\00:12:08.36
And, folks, thank
you for joining us.
00:12:08.39\00:12:10.82
But please do
not touch that dial.
00:12:10.85\00:12:13.62
We have an
important message for you
00:12:13.65\00:12:16.00
followed by an
interview with Doctor Lukens.
00:12:16.03\00:12:19.86
Welcome back, friends.
00:12:52.02\00:12:53.08
It is my pleasure to
welcome Doctor Lukens.
00:12:53.11\00:12:56.58
Yes. It's so good.
00:12:56.61\00:12:58.58
And before you get
away. Oh, what a grip, man.
00:12:58.61\00:13:00.91
You got a grip.
00:13:00.94\00:13:02.76
There isn't anyone I'd
really rather be talking to
00:13:02.79\00:13:06.48
because you've been through it.
00:13:06.51\00:13:09.24
Well, you are right.
00:13:09.27\00:13:10.38
And you're
empathetic, you're sympathetic
00:13:10.41\00:13:12.80
and, you know, you
know, it's really good
00:13:12.83\00:13:15.91
that you've
done so many of these
00:13:15.94\00:13:17.30
because it's-- That's it.
00:13:17.33\00:13:19.23
Oh, thank you for that.
00:13:19.26\00:13:20.54
And I know it's by
the grace of our Lord.
00:13:20.57\00:13:23.81
Absolutely.
00:13:23.84\00:13:25.19
Every minute of every day.
00:13:25.22\00:13:26.65
He motivates me
to keep doing these.
00:13:26.68\00:13:29.06
And as you know we've done--
00:13:29.09\00:13:30.61
It's wonderful
you see the results.
00:13:30.64\00:13:32.80
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:13:32.83\00:13:34.19
It's such a pleasure.
00:13:34.22\00:13:35.52
We see people come here
and go through the program.
00:13:35.55\00:13:39.26
You know, there are some viewers
00:13:39.29\00:13:40.54
that will see us every week
00:13:40.57\00:13:42.78
and they see us over
and over and they go,
00:13:42.81\00:13:45.04
"Wow, does this
really happen and does that?"
00:13:45.07\00:13:47.90
well, of course, it does.
00:13:47.93\00:13:49.95
That's why we're
all here doing it.
00:13:49.98\00:13:51.93
Yeah. That's exactly right.
00:13:51.96\00:13:53.73
Let's talk about this lady.
00:13:53.76\00:13:56.20
And-- Marilyn?
00:13:56.23\00:13:58.36
Marilyn, yes.
00:13:58.39\00:13:59.61
People have seen
here on television
00:13:59.64\00:14:01.41
for many years, decades.
00:14:01.44\00:14:03.98
Many, many. That's right.
00:14:04.01\00:14:05.73
And so some of our
viewers are saying,
00:14:05.76\00:14:08.63
"Isn't that what's her name?"
00:14:08.66\00:14:11.50
Yeah, that's what--
That's, what's her name?
00:14:11.53\00:14:12.95
Yeah.
00:14:12.98\00:14:14.01
It was thrilling to
hear her sing again.
00:14:14.04\00:14:17.19
And she plays the
piano so beautifully
00:14:17.22\00:14:18.98
when she sings as well.
00:14:19.01\00:14:20.17
Absolutely.
00:14:20.20\00:14:21.34
Now she tells me
that she had a problem
00:14:21.37\00:14:24.50
or all of a sudden she
was reaching for the notes
00:14:24.53\00:14:28.16
and couldn't quite
hit the right chord.
00:14:28.19\00:14:31.19
So she was
developing neuropathy.
00:14:31.22\00:14:33.69
Exactly. In her hands.
00:14:33.72\00:14:36.49
What's the prognosis for
people watching right now
00:14:36.52\00:14:41.07
that not only have--
the neuropathy in their feet
00:14:41.10\00:14:44.69
but in their hands?
00:14:44.72\00:14:46.73
Well, you know, I'm glad
that I've been here 25years
00:14:46.76\00:14:49.21
that's not a plug for me
but you see a lot of things
00:14:49.24\00:14:52.44
and I'm not a brilliant
person but I am an observer.
00:14:52.47\00:14:55.98
And I had a guy
probably 20 years ago,
00:14:56.01\00:14:59.31
he was having the
same thing in his hands
00:14:59.34\00:15:02.14
and he couldn't hold a pen,
00:15:02.17\00:15:04.19
pencil anymore,
he couldn't write.
00:15:04.22\00:15:06.72
And he came back
several times and he says,
00:15:06.75\00:15:09.16
"Well, it's getting a
little bit better and so forth."
00:15:09.19\00:15:11.60
So after a period
of about six months,
00:15:11.63\00:15:14.74
six to nine months, he said,
"I'm so much back to normal,
00:15:14.77\00:15:19.86
it's just occasionally I
get a little bit of a twinge."
00:15:19.89\00:15:24.39
That isn't in the literature
but we have published in
00:15:24.42\00:15:27.48
like clinical
nutrition and stuff like that.
00:15:27.51\00:15:29.87
And it is
reversible and those are
00:15:29.90\00:15:32.19
some of the happiest
people that you ever see
00:15:32.22\00:15:34.15
'cause they don't
get a good night sleep
00:15:34.18\00:15:35.96
and they are on
all the medications.
00:15:35.99\00:15:37.48
And the doctors,
you know, they just say,
00:15:37.51\00:15:39.75
well-- You know, I'm
not putting down on it
00:15:39.78\00:15:41.79
but I mean it's just that--
00:15:41.82\00:15:43.26
How many of the
doctors that are diabetologist
00:15:43.29\00:15:46.67
and endocrinologist.
00:15:46.70\00:15:48.08
See a person that's doing,
well, we're doing, they don't.
00:15:48.11\00:15:50.91
So they just figure.
00:15:50.94\00:15:52.26
Yeah. Anyway--
00:15:52.29\00:15:53.35
You know, I want to
talk about something
00:15:53.38\00:15:55.03
and I want your permission
to be able to talk about this
00:15:55.06\00:15:58.24
that Marilyn was
not doing all that well.
00:15:58.27\00:16:02.26
And a group of you
got together and prayed.
00:16:02.29\00:16:05.59
Just this morning
as God's healing power.
00:16:05.62\00:16:10.54
Well, you know, prefacing this,
00:16:10.57\00:16:15.82
here is someone who has gone
literally all over the world.
00:16:15.85\00:16:19.46
She was with It
is Written, Russia,
00:16:19.49\00:16:22.15
all these places
singing year after year
00:16:22.18\00:16:25.17
and just
blessing so many people.
00:16:25.20\00:16:28.20
And when you travel
and when you do that stuff
00:16:28.23\00:16:30.08
it's not that easy.
00:16:30.11\00:16:32.16
It's doable but, and she
didn't know about it at first.
00:16:32.19\00:16:36.37
So she has been back
before, she said that.
00:16:36.40\00:16:39.41
But the thing is, is that
when it started affecting her
00:16:39.44\00:16:44.47
so that she couldn't play
00:16:44.50\00:16:45.94
and she was
having problems that way.
00:16:45.97\00:16:48.03
Then she really,
really, you know,
00:16:48.06\00:16:50.40
she wants to-- I
think it was 14 years ago
00:16:50.43\00:16:54.83
that she was last here.
00:16:54.86\00:16:56.18
And a lot of things
can happen in 14 years.
00:16:56.21\00:16:58.56
Yes.
00:16:58.59\00:16:59.62
And the feet are
generally the way it starts.
00:16:59.65\00:17:02.86
And it goes through the
body and so many issues now
00:17:02.89\00:17:08.49
as it the digestive
system doesn't have the nerves
00:17:08.52\00:17:13.37
that are healthy
and strong like that.
00:17:13.40\00:17:15.30
And if I hadn't had
somebody just two years ago
00:17:15.33\00:17:19.33
that came in and he was dying,
00:17:19.36\00:17:21.00
he went from 220
pounds down to a 120 pounds
00:17:21.03\00:17:25.39
and he was literally dying.
00:17:25.42\00:17:27.45
And it reversed for
him so I can, you know,
00:17:27.48\00:17:29.73
I can tell people
that are suffering
00:17:29.76\00:17:31.77
from early parts of this
that, yes, it is reversible,
00:17:31.80\00:17:35.25
it's not easy, we
wish that you, you know,
00:17:35.28\00:17:37.89
had not had to go through this.
00:17:37.92\00:17:40.53
But it is, it's just--
I should write his case up
00:17:40.56\00:17:44.11
and another
people that have that.
00:17:44.14\00:17:47.12
But what's really
important to me is that
00:17:47.15\00:17:50.89
a group of you, three or four
of you got together with her.
00:17:50.92\00:17:55.46
Where she wasn't
gonna even come in
00:17:55.49\00:17:57.31
for the second interview here.
00:17:57.34\00:17:59.59
And sit with us
because she was not doing well.
00:17:59.62\00:18:05.14
But after your prayer,
00:18:05.17\00:18:07.20
all of a sudden,
there was a change.
00:18:07.23\00:18:09.01
It wasn't my-- Just my prayer.
00:18:09.04\00:18:11.01
Well, the prayer of all of you.
00:18:11.04\00:18:12.57
'Cause people here on campus
and they're used to looking
00:18:12.60\00:18:14.70
heavenward and asking God.
00:18:14.73\00:18:16.59
But, you know, Ron,
I really must say this.
00:18:16.62\00:18:21.40
If you have a common cold
00:18:21.43\00:18:24.46
or you have
metastatic inoperable cancer,
00:18:24.49\00:18:27.82
there's only one
person that can heal.
00:18:27.85\00:18:29.90
Amen. And we look to that.
00:18:29.93\00:18:32.53
You know, I mean, she's
been so close to the Lord
00:18:32.56\00:18:34.85
and worked with people that,
that are spreading the gospel
00:18:34.88\00:18:37.60
all over the--
all over the world.
00:18:37.63\00:18:39.04
But it was so touching today
when she went back to the piano
00:18:39.07\00:18:43.97
and she sang and just for
our guests that were there.
00:18:44.00\00:18:48.51
And they were just, it
just brings tears to your eyes.
00:18:48.54\00:18:51.59
Yeah.
00:18:51.62\00:18:52.65
And as God gives a person a gift
00:18:52.68\00:18:54.26
and as long as they can
use it they want to do it.
00:18:54.29\00:18:56.56
All right.
00:18:56.59\00:18:57.62
So what is-- What's
gonna happen with her, Doc?
00:18:57.65\00:19:00.30
I'm really-- Okay.
00:19:00.33\00:19:03.16
Well, yesterday
when she just, you know,
00:19:03.19\00:19:06.95
said I just can't
take this pain anymore.
00:19:06.98\00:19:09.95
I'm saying, yes.
00:19:09.98\00:19:12.31
I have to tell
people and they say,
00:19:12.34\00:19:14.44
you know, Doc, when I
came here my feet were numb
00:19:14.47\00:19:16.73
and now they're just,
00:19:16.76\00:19:17.96
yeah, they describe
it in different ways,
00:19:17.99\00:19:20.42
walking on razor blades, they
are walking on broken glass.
00:19:20.45\00:19:24.25
Or hot, you know,
hot coals or whatever.
00:19:24.28\00:19:27.46
But it's tough because, I say,
00:19:27.49\00:19:29.52
yes, that shows
that you're healing.
00:19:29.55\00:19:31.64
And she's already starting
to get some results from it.
00:19:31.67\00:19:34.73
And so it's tough
to go through this.
00:19:34.76\00:19:38.52
But yes, I believe that
as she continues on with this
00:19:38.55\00:19:42.47
and she's very, very committed.
00:19:42.50\00:19:45.01
That she will
have healing from that,
00:19:45.04\00:19:47.31
she's on a whole
stack of medications
00:19:47.34\00:19:49.70
and you've got to
treat some of these things
00:19:49.73\00:19:51.96
when your blood
pressure is up and things are,
00:19:51.99\00:19:55.35
you know, you're having
clots form here and there
00:19:55.38\00:19:58.61
and stuff like that.
00:19:58.64\00:19:59.68
So they got to treat
that but to do the lifestyle
00:19:59.71\00:20:03.22
and see the healing
power of God, He says,
00:20:03.25\00:20:05.81
"Look, if you'll get
here to my commandments.
00:20:05.84\00:20:09.24
In other words, listen to obey
and you'll keep my statutes,
00:20:09.27\00:20:14.09
you will have none
of these diseases."
00:20:14.12\00:20:15.86
Amen.
00:20:15.89\00:20:16.92
"Because I am the Lord
thy God who healeth thee."
00:20:16.95\00:20:19.21
Amen.
00:20:19.24\00:20:20.27
And we give that to
the people every time.
00:20:20.30\00:20:22.95
You know, the thing is
that we don't really realize
00:20:22.98\00:20:26.30
the tremendous
power that God has
00:20:26.33\00:20:29.45
and the almost unutterable love
00:20:29.48\00:20:32.10
that He has for
all of His children,
00:20:32.13\00:20:34.15
all of His children.
00:20:34.18\00:20:35.67
Whether they're
doing right or wrong,
00:20:35.70\00:20:36.93
whether they are weak
or strong or whatever.
00:20:36.96\00:20:39.20
If we realize that, our
lives would be filled with peace
00:20:39.23\00:20:44.45
and joy and rejoicing.
00:20:44.48\00:20:46.42
Well, I know that
there are viewers right now
00:20:46.45\00:20:50.84
listening to what you just
said and you've given them hope.
00:20:50.87\00:20:54.17
And I want to
elaborate on that a little bit.
00:20:54.20\00:20:59.40
What can someone
do starting right now,
00:20:59.43\00:21:02.59
people at home,
maybe they are so sick
00:21:02.62\00:21:05.59
they can't even
get out of the house.
00:21:05.62\00:21:07.24
What can they do?
00:21:07.27\00:21:08.71
Open their Bible, the
most up-to-date science book,
00:21:08.74\00:21:12.43
Genesis 1 and start
reading and when you get to 29,
00:21:12.46\00:21:16.24
you'll find out that this
is the whole plant foods diet
00:21:16.27\00:21:20.06
and you want to eat it in simply
00:21:20.09\00:21:21.47
and that should be prepared.
00:21:21.50\00:21:22.81
The other thing is,
two tiny little increments,
00:21:22.84\00:21:26.39
walk just a little
bit, if you can only get up
00:21:26.42\00:21:29.13
out of your chair and
then sit back down again.
00:21:29.16\00:21:31.69
That's exercise.
00:21:31.72\00:21:33.22
And let me, let me
tell you another thing
00:21:33.25\00:21:35.08
that I am so thrilled,
00:21:35.11\00:21:36.56
that she and her
husband both came.
00:21:36.59\00:21:39.95
Yes.
00:21:39.98\00:21:41.02
And they will help
each other, she's--
00:21:41.05\00:21:43.95
When somebody's in pain,
00:21:43.98\00:21:45.63
they are totally
dependent upon their spouse.
00:21:45.66\00:21:48.47
For their, you
know, for their mental,
00:21:48.50\00:21:51.10
their-- Even
their spiritual health.
00:21:51.13\00:21:52.73
Well, as you know--
And with him being here.
00:21:52.76\00:21:55.09
Yeah.
00:21:55.12\00:21:56.15
And with him being here
and then doing it together,
00:21:56.18\00:21:58.31
it's gonna be,
it's all the difference
00:21:58.34\00:22:00.42
between being successful
and falling back again.
00:22:00.45\00:22:06.33
And as you know,
my wife came with me
00:22:06.36\00:22:08.62
'cause I wasn't about to go home
00:22:08.65\00:22:10.85
and do what I learned here,
00:22:10.88\00:22:12.76
how could I share
all this with her.
00:22:12.79\00:22:14.68
You can't explain it. I can't.
00:22:14.71\00:22:16.80
We're running out of time.
00:22:16.83\00:22:18.38
I want to thank you
for coming on the program
00:22:18.41\00:22:21.54
as you always are welcome.
00:22:21.57\00:22:23.95
Yes. I'm so--
00:22:23.98\00:22:25.16
And thank you for doing well.
00:22:25.19\00:22:26.75
Oh, thank you. Yeah.
00:22:26.78\00:22:28.78
And, friends, thank
you, but don't go away,
00:22:28.81\00:22:30.67
we have a tip for you.
00:22:30.70\00:22:32.30
Hi, I'm Dr. Randy Bivens.
00:22:38.82\00:22:41.19
Today, I'm going to
tell you about a product
00:22:41.22\00:22:43.60
that will reduce
your risk of heart attack.
00:22:43.63\00:22:46.31
It is at least as
effective as maintaining
00:22:46.34\00:22:48.80
an ideal body weight,
reducing high blood pressure,
00:22:48.83\00:22:52.75
reducing
cholesterol or stopping smoking.
00:22:52.78\00:22:56.21
It is virtually free and
there are no side effects
00:22:56.24\00:22:59.37
in healthy people.
00:22:59.40\00:23:01.36
This product if taken
in recommended amounts
00:23:01.39\00:23:03.82
will cure or
significantly reduce
00:23:03.85\00:23:05.85
the incidence of many diseases.
00:23:05.88\00:23:09.27
These include kidney
stones, gallbladder disease,
00:23:09.30\00:23:11.98
constipation,
urinary tract infections,
00:23:12.01\00:23:14.65
high blood pressure,
glaucoma and venous blood clots.
00:23:14.68\00:23:18.40
Although not yet
proven scientifically,
00:23:18.43\00:23:20.99
this product is thought
to be important in reducing
00:23:21.02\00:23:23.47
or improving most
diseases known to man.
00:23:23.50\00:23:27.42
On top of that, there
are no adverse effects
00:23:27.45\00:23:30.03
in healthy people.
00:23:30.06\00:23:31.27
In fact, overall health
and well-being are improved.
00:23:31.30\00:23:36.12
Have you figured out
what we're talking about?
00:23:36.15\00:23:38.41
Two hydrogen atoms
bound to one oxygen atom
00:23:38.44\00:23:41.94
forming H20 or water.
00:23:41.97\00:23:44.46
A study published
in the American Journal
00:23:44.49\00:23:46.73
of Epidemiology
showed that those who drank
00:23:46.76\00:23:49.40
more than five
glasses of water per day
00:23:49.43\00:23:52.46
had significantly less death
from coronary heart disease
00:23:52.49\00:23:56.77
compared to those who drank
less than two glasses per day.
00:23:56.80\00:24:00.89
Doctor Chan, the
principal investigator wrote,
00:24:00.92\00:24:03.88
"Basically not
drinking enough water
00:24:03.91\00:24:06.67
can be as harmful to
your heart as smoking."
00:24:06.70\00:24:10.52
Drinking over five
glasses of water per day
00:24:10.55\00:24:14.24
will cut the risk of
coronary heart disease in half.
00:24:14.27\00:24:18.62
This has an equal or
greater effect than any other
00:24:18.65\00:24:22.43
well known preventive measure.
00:24:22.46\00:24:25.39
The researchers also
noted that if people drank
00:24:25.42\00:24:27.98
anything other than pure water,
00:24:28.01\00:24:30.63
their risk for coronary heart
disease actually increased.
00:24:30.66\00:24:34.74
This includes tea, coffee,
soda and even fruit juices.
00:24:34.77\00:24:39.96
Doctor Chan noted,
"People need to be made aware
00:24:39.99\00:24:43.15
that there is a difference,
at least for heart health,
00:24:43.18\00:24:46.66
whether they get their
fluids from plain water
00:24:46.69\00:24:49.00
or from sodas."
00:24:49.03\00:24:51.38
Perhaps you're wondering
how is it that something
00:24:51.41\00:24:53.77
as simple as drinking water
has such a substantial effect
00:24:53.80\00:24:57.47
on our coronary health.
00:24:57.50\00:24:59.49
Well, it has been shown
that dehydration elevates
00:24:59.52\00:25:02.90
blood stickiness and
increases blood elements
00:25:02.93\00:25:06.11
that promote clotting.
00:25:06.14\00:25:07.94
When elevated,
these are risk factors
00:25:07.97\00:25:10.66
for coronary heart disease.
00:25:10.69\00:25:12.69
So how much
water should you drink?
00:25:12.72\00:25:15.23
Here's a good rule of thumb.
00:25:15.26\00:25:16.67
Take your body weight in
pounds and divide it in half.
00:25:16.70\00:25:20.09
That number is the
recommended number of ounces
00:25:20.12\00:25:23.41
you should drink every day.
00:25:23.44\00:25:25.76
Naturally, your need for
water increases with exercise,
00:25:25.79\00:25:29.30
warmer temperatures, and fever.
00:25:29.33\00:25:31.55
When dealing
with these situations,
00:25:31.58\00:25:33.32
use your commonsense, and
make sure you drink enough.
00:25:33.35\00:25:37.33
It is helpful to drink
at least one glass of water
00:25:37.36\00:25:40.16
as soon as you
wake up in the morning
00:25:40.19\00:25:42.10
as well as a glass
of water at bedtime.
00:25:42.13\00:25:45.04
This has been shown
to significantly reduce
00:25:45.07\00:25:47.44
your heart attack
risk for that night.
00:25:47.47\00:25:50.35
Your body is 75% water
and your brain is 85% water.
00:25:50.38\00:25:55.90
Water is more
than a simple solvent,
00:25:55.93\00:25:58.19
it is important in
many body functions.
00:25:58.22\00:26:02.16
With all of these benefits,
00:26:02.19\00:26:04.23
why don't we
hear more about water?
00:26:04.26\00:26:06.49
Could it be because
you cannot patent water,
00:26:06.52\00:26:10.06
there's no profit in its
research or its promotion.
00:26:10.09\00:26:13.79
As you can see, in
our goal to live longer,
00:26:13.82\00:26:16.82
better, healthier lives,
00:26:16.85\00:26:19.00
we need to develop
the habit of drinking
00:26:19.03\00:26:20.97
generous amounts of water
00:26:21.00\00:26:22.87
in conjunction with
reducing or eliminating
00:26:22.90\00:26:25.86
the consumption of tea,
coffee, soda and fruit drinks.
00:26:25.89\00:26:30.11
We just need plain pure water.
00:26:30.14\00:26:32.78
Because of the risk
of BPA and plastics,
00:26:32.81\00:26:35.17
it's best to avoid
most bottled water.
00:26:35.20\00:26:37.82
It's a good idea
to filter tap water,
00:26:37.85\00:26:40.53
this can be
effective in most situations
00:26:40.56\00:26:42.73
with a good charcoal filter.
00:26:42.76\00:26:45.50
This will also save
you money in the long run.
00:26:45.53\00:26:48.55
For those of us with well water,
00:26:48.58\00:26:50.45
it's a good idea to
have your water tested
00:26:50.48\00:26:52.47
to make sure that it
does not contain toxins
00:26:52.50\00:26:54.85
such as heavy metals.
00:26:54.88\00:26:56.93
So in our goal to
live 120 years of age,
00:26:56.96\00:27:01.36
drinking plenty of
water is definitely
00:27:01.39\00:27:04.24
one of the most important habits
00:27:04.27\00:27:06.75
that we can develop.
00:27:06.78\00:27:08.03
You're killing me.
00:27:26.48\00:27:27.94
You're killing me.
00:27:31.11\00:27:32.86
Actually, Dad,
you're killing yourself.
00:27:32.89\00:27:37.46
