Eleven. Yeah. 00:03:58.24\00:03:59.33 And some of those twice a day? 00:03:59.36\00:04:02.12 Most of them were just once a day. 00:04:02.15\00:04:03.56 Once a day, 11 that's enough. Yeah. Yeah. 00:04:03.59\00:04:06.17 How many are you taking now? 00:04:06.20\00:04:07.92 Well, we're down by four. So we've come down to seven. 00:04:07.95\00:04:11.60 So you eliminated four? We have. 00:04:11.63\00:04:14.23 And the seven that are remaining are for what purpose? 00:04:14.26\00:04:18.62 Primarily, heart. 00:04:18.65\00:04:19.96 Heart, so you came here 00:04:19.99\00:04:21.09 with a heart condition as already know. 00:04:21.12\00:04:22.87 Yeah, I had congestive heart failure 00:04:22.90\00:04:28.34 and the basis for that or the symptoms of that 00:04:28.37\00:04:34.15 have much been decreased. 00:04:34.18\00:04:36.51 And so, how is congestive heart failure 00:04:36.54\00:04:42.42 and the Newstart program, how they-- 00:04:42.45\00:04:46.86 how could the Newstart program help congestive heart failure? 00:04:46.89\00:04:50.74 I thought you need to go to cardiologist 00:04:50.77\00:04:52.93 and you took all these pills 00:04:52.96\00:04:54.23 and everything will be all right, maybe. 00:04:54.26\00:04:56.14 And that's true, you do 00:04:56.17\00:04:58.09 and that's why I started it was -- 00:04:58.12\00:04:59.49 Oh, you did. It was cardiologist, yeah. 00:04:59.52\00:05:03.05 But the features of this program, 00:05:03.08\00:05:07.56 I think may be the most important to me 00:05:07.59\00:05:09.94 anyway was exercise. 00:05:09.97\00:05:12.77 I was getting off my seat and walking, 00:05:12.80\00:05:17.34 spend my time on my feet. 00:05:17.37\00:05:18.79 So you describe exercise as walking? 00:05:18.82\00:05:22.09 Yeah. Right. Yes, sir. Okay. 00:05:22.12\00:05:23.35 Walking, just walking certain distance here on the campus. 00:05:23.38\00:05:29.61 Wherever you want to go there is plenty of trails 00:05:29.64\00:05:31.79 and mountains and a lot to see, lot of beautiful country. 00:05:31.82\00:05:35.55 So it's an easy thing to do is walk-- 00:05:35.58\00:05:37.57 Yes. Because it's so enjoyable. 00:05:37.60\00:05:39.27 Unless you're coming up cardiac hill. 00:05:39.30\00:05:41.37 Sure. 00:05:41.40\00:05:43.24 That's a toughie. There are a few-- 00:05:43.27\00:05:44.71 That's a toughie. Yeah. 00:05:44.74\00:05:45.77 There are a few like that. 00:05:45.80\00:05:47.25 So you've lost 27 pounds, 00:05:47.28\00:05:48.95 you got off of four medications. 00:05:48.98\00:05:51.37 Do you actually feel a difference? 00:05:51.40\00:05:54.14 Oh, I do. 00:05:54.17\00:05:55.20 Did you feel like there is hope? 00:05:55.23\00:05:58.46 I do, I have hope that I didn't have of three weeks ago. 00:05:58.49\00:06:04.18 And, Priscilla what do you see him as now? 00:06:04.21\00:06:08.82 Well, I see a big difference. 00:06:08.85\00:06:11.52 I see a difference in his ability to getup 00:06:11.55\00:06:15.16 and walk for one thing because before we came here 00:06:15.19\00:06:17.95 he couldn't walk from the house down to the barn. 00:06:17.98\00:06:20.48 He was short-winded. 00:06:20.51\00:06:22.99 He was beat, beat up-- Yeah. 00:06:23.02\00:06:25.31 And he would have to sit down and rest. 00:06:25.34\00:06:28.07 We got here and of course 00:06:28.10\00:06:29.55 he couldn't walk too much at first either 00:06:29.58\00:06:32.46 but he started walking and changing the diet, 00:06:32.49\00:06:37.72 and got off all of the, a lot of sugar and-- 00:06:37.75\00:06:45.44 He is smiling. And salt. 00:06:45.47\00:06:46.50 And salt which-- And salt. 00:06:46.53\00:06:47.56 Which caused him to retain water. 00:06:47.59\00:06:49.75 Sure. 00:06:49.78\00:06:50.81 And also the fact that he didn't have the fats 00:06:50.84\00:06:56.47 that the oils. 00:06:56.50\00:06:57.98 And so it's a different diet for us 00:06:58.01\00:07:00.51 but it has really turned things around. 00:07:00.54\00:07:04.13 Now, I know you mentioned the word diet 00:07:04.16\00:07:06.20 and I want a clarification with our viewers 00:07:06.23\00:07:09.53 that yeah, you change your diet 00:07:09.56\00:07:11.58 but more than anything we change your lifestyle. 00:07:11.61\00:07:15.97 Right. 00:07:16.00\00:07:17.04 And you'll get a follow-up call from me, by the way, 00:07:17.07\00:07:21.56 monthly if you care to. 00:07:21.59\00:07:23.42 And we'll talk about your program. 00:07:23.45\00:07:26.32 How it's progressing. 00:07:26.35\00:07:27.71 The weight loss, 00:07:27.74\00:07:28.88 what your cardiologist has to say. 00:07:28.91\00:07:31.40 His mind's gonna be blown, I know. 00:07:31.43\00:07:34.41 Because a lot of guys out there are 00:07:34.44\00:07:36.63 and no offense to any doctors are just not aware 00:07:36.66\00:07:41.18 but they're becoming more and more aware 00:07:41.21\00:07:43.54 because of programs like the Newstart Now program. 00:07:43.57\00:07:47.28 True. 00:07:47.31\00:07:48.51 Alan, tell me where do you go from here, 00:07:48.54\00:07:55.02 and has this program met your expectations? 00:07:55.05\00:08:00.89 Now going from here, 00:08:00.92\00:08:03.67 it's just up to us now to carry this what we've learned 00:08:03.70\00:08:06.72 and experienced whether it's how to build the foods 00:08:06.75\00:08:12.08 that we've been eating, prepare the meals 00:08:12.11\00:08:15.82 or the walking, the exercising that we do in the morning. 00:08:15.85\00:08:21.61 That 's what I think carry that home 00:08:21.64\00:08:23.38 back to where we live and-- 00:08:23.41\00:08:25.91 And make sure I don't fall down on the couch anymore 00:08:25.94\00:08:28.89 and waste my time there. 00:08:28.92\00:08:32.37 Oh, by the way, I meant to ask you. 00:08:32.40\00:08:34.10 I want to get this because before we went on the camera, 00:08:34.13\00:08:38.26 before we sat down you were telling me about 00:08:38.29\00:08:42.07 episodes of tying your shoes-- 00:08:42.10\00:08:44.81 Oh, yeah.

00:12:23.31\00:12:25.73 Alan and his lovely wife, Priscilla. 00:12:25.76\00:12:29.15 As you know, 00:12:29.18\00:12:30.21 we don't normally interview two people at a time 00:12:30.24\00:12:35.10 but this particular program we did 00:12:35.13\00:12:38.23 and what amazes me 00:12:38.26\00:12:41.50 is here's a man with congestive heart failure. 00:12:41.53\00:12:46.10 During our first interview, he is very emotional. 00:12:46.13\00:12:49.68 He wanted more than anything to leave here with a good heart 00:12:49.71\00:12:53.84 and not just a clean heart but a good strong heart. 00:12:53.87\00:12:59.26 He says, he has lost a total of 27 pounds 00:12:59.29\00:13:03.52 and he's made a lot of changes. 00:13:03.55\00:13:05.83 Can you tell us, how does someone have 00:13:05.86\00:13:10.00 congestive heart failure one month 00:13:10.03\00:13:13.01 and a month later or two months later 00:13:13.04\00:13:15.31 not have congestive heart failure? 00:13:15.34\00:13:18.59 Well, what happens is you know, of course you know 00:13:18.62\00:13:21.55 they usually put people with congestive heart failure 00:13:21.58\00:13:24.39 in medication and things like that 00:13:24.42\00:13:26.22 and He had a high blood pressure 00:13:26.25\00:13:29.93 and when he came here he was feeling very weak, 00:13:29.96\00:13:33.21 he had very little energy. 00:13:33.24\00:13:35.42 And as far his activity, 00:13:35.45\00:13:37.54 I tried to record how much exercise 00:13:37.57\00:13:39.76 they do when they come here. 00:13:39.79\00:13:41.23 And all I've recorded was what we call ADL 00:13:41.26\00:13:43.85 which means "Activities of Daily Living" 00:13:43.88\00:13:46.10 but he wasn't able to exercise, he just-- 00:13:46.13\00:13:48.06 He wasn't. 00:13:48.09\00:13:49.12 Did not have the energy to exercise. 00:13:49.15\00:13:50.19 Nothing, yeah. 00:13:50.22\00:13:51.70 You know, if he could just go around 00:13:51.73\00:13:53.00 and do what he had to do 00:13:53.03\00:13:54.36 and even that would make him very tired. 00:13:54.39\00:13:57.09 But the interesting and fascinating thing 00:13:57.12\00:13:59.49 is that as he came here, 00:13:59.52\00:14:01.53 he made changes in his diet and his lifestyle 00:14:01.56\00:14:05.07 and he just started to do a little bit of exercise 00:14:05.10\00:14:08.88 that he found that he could do more 00:14:08.91\00:14:11.66 and he had more energy 00:14:11.69\00:14:13.61 and in fact his blood pressure came down. 00:14:13.64\00:14:18.04 So that I had, 00:14:18.07\00:14:19.10 we have to stop all of his blood pressure medication. 00:14:19.13\00:14:21.29 Otherwise, his blood pressure was so low 00:14:21.32\00:14:23.14 he wasn't feeling good 00:14:23.17\00:14:24.77 and when we stopped his blood pressure medicine 00:14:24.80\00:14:26.77 his blood pressure came back up to a wonderful low normal level 00:14:26.80\00:14:33.08 and he felt so much better. 00:14:33.11\00:14:35.21 In fact, on some days while he was here, 00:14:35.24\00:14:38.32 he walked as much as five miles. 00:14:38.35\00:14:41.37 And you know to talk about him 00:14:41.40\00:14:43.40 or even thinking about that I think 00:14:43.43\00:14:45.49 if I asked him to think about, you know, 00:14:45.52\00:14:47.92 "Alan would you think you could walk five miles 00:14:47.95\00:14:52.22 any time sooner," 00:14:52.25\00:14:53.54 he would say "you're making me tired 00:14:53.57\00:14:55.28 by thinking about how far that is. 00:14:55.31\00:14:57.61 But he did it and he did that on several occasions 00:14:57.64\00:15:00.47 and he did very, very, well. 00:15:00.50\00:15:03.16 So there is hope then for our viewers, 00:15:03.19\00:15:07.06 many of which as you know being a doctor are suffering 00:15:07.09\00:15:11.24 from cardiovascular diseases of many kinds, 00:15:11.27\00:15:15.28 high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, 00:15:15.31\00:15:19.47 whatever it is there is hope and it's through lifestyle. 00:15:19.50\00:15:24.71 Could you elaborate little bit more than that? 00:15:24.74\00:15:26.93 Well, certainly through lifestyle. 00:15:26.96\00:15:28.25 We find out that as we make changes in their diet, 00:15:28.28\00:15:31.94 the transition from the standard American diet, 00:15:31.97\00:15:35.19 please note the acronym for the standard American diet 00:15:35.22\00:15:37.99 is S as standard, A as American, 00:15:38.02\00:15:41.18 D as diet is "SAD." 00:15:41.21\00:15:44.12 Okay, and why is it SAD? 00:15:44.15\00:15:45.90 Well, the standard American diet 00:15:45.93\00:15:47.68 is high in refined carbohydrates, 00:15:47.71\00:15:50.77 high in fat, and high in animal protein, 00:15:50.80\00:15:54.69 and high in calories and when you combine 00:15:54.72\00:15:57.77 that with the less inactive lifestyle, sedentary, inactive, 00:15:57.80\00:16:03.25 whatever you want to call it. 00:16:03.28\00:16:05.02 I sometimes use the word 00:16:05.05\00:16:06.61 that's not as gentle to describe it as a slothful. 00:16:06.64\00:16:13.19 That really helps people to become overweight 00:16:13.22\00:16:17.13 and the reason I choose slothful is 00:16:17.16\00:16:19.61 I'm using every means I can including verbal means 00:16:19.64\00:16:23.20 to try to help them not be like that, 00:16:23.23\00:16:25.28 I want them to be more active. 00:16:25.31\00:16:27.77 And when they become more active they feel better. 00:16:27.80\00:16:30.64 And this was shown with Alan I said, 00:16:30.67\00:16:32.88 "you know, what's happened to your energy levels, 00:16:32.91\00:16:35.33 it's much better." 00:16:35.36\00:16:38.92 Or I asked him I said, 00:16:38.95\00:16:39.98 "you couldn't walk that far and do that much 00:16:40.01\00:16:41.85 when you got here. 00:16:41.88\00:16:42.91 He says, "you are absolutely right." 00:16:42.94\00:16:44.77 But I feel so much better now that I've made these changes, 00:16:44.80\00:16:48.40 going to the plan based diet 00:16:48.43\00:16:50.35 helps to improve the circulation 00:16:50.38\00:16:53.55 and just a little bit of exercise 00:16:53.58\00:16:55.47 along with that increases the, you know, 00:16:55.50\00:16:58.52 the circulation to the heart and if he had any fluid there 00:16:58.55\00:17:02.59 which he largely got rid of most of that before he came 00:17:02.62\00:17:05.64 but he still lost 10 pounds while he was here. 00:17:05.67\00:17:08.63 He felt so much better 00:17:08.66\00:17:10.07 and had much more energy to do much more. 00:17:10.10\00:17:14.60 I think it's an amazing story, 00:17:14.63\00:17:16.63 because you've seen both interviews and in the first one 00:17:16.66\00:17:22.16 it was like he was ready to die. 00:17:22.19\00:17:25.02 I mean literally, 00:17:25.05\00:17:26.11 I could just see it in his eyes, his attitude, 00:17:26.14\00:17:29.65 he was very emotional about wanting to regain his strength 00:17:29.68\00:17:33.44 and leave here with a good heart 00:17:33.47\00:17:36.06 and then the second interview which we just did 00:17:36.09\00:17:39.56 and you could see the expression on his face. 00:17:39.59\00:17:42.51 He is happy and he knows that there again there is hope. 00:17:42.54\00:17:48.83 And what can we say to our viewers, 00:17:48.86\00:17:53.16 the thousands, you know millions of people 00:17:53.19\00:17:56.05 die every year through cardiovascular disease 00:17:56.08\00:18:00.50 and as I mentioned in other programs 00:18:00.53\00:18:04.42 you can like in it to six and half 747s 00:18:04.45\00:18:09.49 dropping out of the sky each day. 00:18:09.52\00:18:12.71 And yet the media doesn't print these kinds of things. 00:18:12.74\00:18:16.06 One plane crashes and you hear about it for weeks. 00:18:16.09\00:18:19.92 Yep, we have six and half 00:18:19.95\00:18:22.65 crashing everyday, nothing is said. 00:18:22.68\00:18:25.25 Yeah, that's you know like the number 00:18:25.28\00:18:26.96 I use when I tell people, 00:18:26.99\00:18:28.30 it says, "everyday in United States 00:18:28.33\00:18:30.93 approximate 3,000 people die from heart disease, 00:18:30.96\00:18:34.48 high blood pressure, and strokes. 00:18:34.51\00:18:36.37 That's as many as perished on September 11, 2001." 00:18:36.40\00:18:40.81 Wow. 00:18:40.84\00:18:41.87 And it's really tragic 00:18:41.90\00:18:42.97 because if they would change their lifestyles 00:18:43.00\00:18:44.78 it doesn't need to be. 00:18:44.81\00:18:46.19 In fact, along the same line cancer, 00:18:46.22\00:18:50.94 1560 people die everyday from some form of cancer, 00:18:50.97\00:18:56.27 that's just in the United States. 00:18:56.30\00:18:58.38 So, you know that's a big thing that 00:18:58.41\00:19:00.75 we can help people make changes in their lifestyle 00:19:00.78\00:19:03.31 to markedly lower their risk for heart disease, 00:19:03.34\00:19:06.90 lower their risk for cancer. 00:19:06.93\00:19:08.65 And for heart disease, you know 00:19:08.68\00:19:10.71 if it's arteriosclerotic heart disease 00:19:10.74\00:19:12.62 where they got lots of plaque 00:19:12.65\00:19:14.49 and cholesterol deposit in those arteries. 00:19:14.52\00:19:17.23 With a good plan based diet, stress control, 00:19:17.26\00:19:21.04 modest exercise program, that's been proven, 00:19:21.07\00:19:24.34 we can prove that those arteries 00:19:24.37\00:19:25.92 will get cleaned out and they can you know 00:19:25.95\00:19:28.93 as we say the reverse heart disease in that sense. 00:19:28.96\00:19:32.37 You know, I know there are many people 00:19:32.40\00:19:33.80 watching this program, right now and they are going " 00:19:33.83\00:19:36.19 well, that might work for some people, 00:19:36.22\00:19:39.70 does it work for everybody?" 00:19:39.73\00:19:41.44 Yeah, it works for everyone who is willing to do it 00:19:41.47\00:19:44.00 and not only they need to be willing to do it 00:19:44.03\00:19:46.71 while they're here but like I tell people 00:19:46.74\00:19:48.81 when you come here this is the beginning, 00:19:48.84\00:19:51.09 this is the introduction, you're gonna learn things. 00:19:51.12\00:19:53.49 It's important what you do here but it's equally as important 00:19:53.52\00:19:58.14 what you're going to continue to do when you go home. 00:19:58.17\00:20:02.10 And so the other thing is no one forces anyone, 00:20:02.13\00:20:05.45 we give them information 00:20:05.48\00:20:06.61 and we encourage them to make wise choices 00:20:06.64\00:20:09.85 and if they make the correct choice 00:20:09.88\00:20:12.50 and they need help carrying out those choices 00:20:12.53\00:20:15.42 we encourage them to talk to our loving Heavenly Father 00:20:15.45\00:20:18.08 who can give them the power 00:20:18.11\00:20:19.25 they need to carry out these choices. 00:20:19.28\00:20:21.84 Amen. 00:20:21.87\00:20:23.39 Doctor, if there is, in our closing moments here 00:20:23.42\00:20:29.06 if there is one thing you could say to our viewers 00:20:29.09\00:20:32.67 that have cardiovascular disease. 00:20:32.70\00:20:36.00 What is it that you would say to them? 00:20:36.03\00:20:39.44 If you need help, at least give us a call 00:20:39.47\00:20:42.44 and we can talk to you and find out you know 00:20:42.47\00:20:44.84 how much we can help you and what would be best for you. 00:20:44.87\00:20:48.87 Well, there you have it 00:20:48.90\00:20:49.93 from the Director of the Newstart program, 00:20:49.96\00:20:52.59 Dr. Clarence Ing been with Newstart 00:20:52.62\00:20:56.27 16 years going on 17. 00:20:56.30\00:20:59.08 If you need some advice, you want to talk to Dr. Ing. 00:20:59.11\00:21:03.50 Please feel free to pick up the phone, 00:21:03.53\00:21:05.85 call 800-525-9192. 00:21:05.88\00:21:10.26 And thank you friends, don't go away 00:21:10.29\00:21:12.74 because, Dr. Randy Bivens 00:21:12.77\00:21:14.63 will be with us in just a moment. 00:21:14.66\00:21:17.89 Thanks doc. Thank you. 00:21:17.92\00:21:20.25 Hi, I'm Dr. Randy Bivens, 00:21:27.99\00:21:30.69 have you ever stayed up all night studying for a test? 00:21:30.72\00:21:33.80 Have you ever wondered why our bodies convince us 00:21:33.83\00:21:35.98 to close our eyes and drift away 00:21:36.01\00:21:37.45 for eight hours every night? 00:21:37.48\00:21:39.56 Why do we sleep? 00:21:39.59\00:21:40.82 What would happen if we just decided to stop sleeping? 00:21:40.85\00:21:43.60 How long would we able to last? 00:21:43.63\00:21:45.90 Well, the world record for living 00:21:45.93\00:21:47.29 without sleep is 11 days. 00:21:47.32\00:21:50.31 Lab rats actually die from sleep depravation 00:21:50.34\00:21:53.20 faster than starving to death. 00:21:53.23\00:21:55.80 Like breathing, eating, and moving 00:21:55.83\00:21:57.89 sleep is an instinctual critical component of our lives 00:21:57.92\00:22:01.22 that can be carried out in an unhealthy 00:22:01.25\00:22:03.85 or healthy manner. 00:22:03.88\00:22:05.43 We're going to talk about the effects of both. 00:22:05.46\00:22:08.59 A recently published study reported that 00:22:08.62\00:22:10.60 if you regularly sleep less than seven hours each night 00:22:10.63\00:22:14.23 your immune system would suffer for it 00:22:14.26\00:22:16.81 making you three times more likely to get sick. 00:22:16.84\00:22:20.79 People with little sleep also tend to be more overweight 00:22:20.82\00:22:23.46 and have shorter life spans. 00:22:23.49\00:22:25.93 Research has actually shown that sleeping less 00:22:25.96\00:22:28.50 alters the metabolic pathways that regulate appetite 00:22:28.56\00:22:32.46 making you feel hungrier as a result. 00:22:32.49\00:22:35.73 Quality sleep on a regular basis 00:22:35.76\00:22:37.52 is necessary for a robust immune system. 00:22:37.55\00:22:41.48 REM, the deep sleep phase of the sleep cycle 00:22:41.51\00:22:44.50 is where the most intense neural activity occurs. 00:22:44.53\00:22:47.90 During REM sleep, blood circulation increases, 00:22:47.93\00:22:50.87 oxygen levels rise. 00:22:50.90\00:22:52.82 and brain tissue absorbs more amino acids. 00:22:52.85\00:22:56.50 Scientists even go so far as to say 00:22:56.53\00:22:58.45 that good sleeper's are mentally sharper 00:22:58.48\00:23:01.49 and are also at lower risk of neurologic diseases 00:23:01.52\00:23:04.30 such as Alzheimer's. 00:23:04.33\00:23:06.79 Even though our bodies might appear very still 00:23:06.82\00:23:09.20 when we sleep, 00:23:09.23\00:23:10.50 it's actually quite active metabolically. 00:23:10.53\00:23:13.06 Free radical substance that has been shown 00:23:13.09\00:23:15.81 to be involved in many disease processes are gobbled up 00:23:15.84\00:23:19.48 at an increased rate during sleep. 00:23:19.51\00:23:22.33 Reparative processes are also active 00:23:22.36\00:23:24.56 such as protein production, 00:23:24.59\00:23:26.48 fixing the damage our body sustained 00:23:26.51\00:23:28.52 during the day, like sun damage. 00:23:28.55\00:23:31.79 So how much sleep do we need? 00:23:31.82\00:23:33.81 Studies show that optimal health is achieved 00:23:33.84\00:23:36.19 when newborns sleep 16-18 hours, 00:23:36.22\00:23:39.34 young children sleep 10-12 hours, 00:23:39.37\00:23:42.18 older children and teen sleep 9 hours, 00:23:42.21\00:23:44.96 and adults sleep 7 to 8 hours. 00:23:44.99\00:23:47.41 And this doesn't mean that our need for sleep 00:23:47.44\00:23:50.38 decreases continually with age. 00:23:50.41\00:23:52.18 In fact, senior citizens need as much sleep as teenagers. 00:23:52.21\00:23:57.40 It has been shown 00:23:57.43\00:23:58.68 for those adult's sleeping less than seven hours, 00:23:58.71\00:24:01.14 the risk of dying increases by 21% in women and 26% in men. 00:24:01.17\00:24:07.24 A startling number that leads us 00:24:07.27\00:24:09.87 to our advice for a better, healthier, sleep lifestyle. 00:24:09.90\00:24:15.46 Turn off the lights, 00:24:15.49\00:24:16.99 light naturally suppresses the body's natural release 00:24:17.02\00:24:20.02 of melatonin. 00:24:20.05\00:24:21.65 A recent study found that exposure to light after dusk 00:24:21.68\00:24:25.57 reduce melatonin levels by 71%. 00:24:25.60\00:24:29.19 Avoid electronic devices, television viewing, 00:24:29.22\00:24:31.84 computers, and mobile phone use just before bedtime 00:24:31.87\00:24:35.27 hinders our natural ability to fall asleep. 00:24:35.30\00:24:39.01 Stick to a schedule, we'll find it easier to sleep 00:24:39.04\00:24:41.71 and it will be healthier 00:24:41.74\00:24:42.93 to achieve a natural sleep wake cycle. 00:24:42.96\00:24:46.37 The sleep that we get before midnight 00:24:46.40\00:24:48.57 is much more beneficial 00:24:48.60\00:24:50.37 and can be worth almost twice as much as that after midnight. 00:24:50.40\00:24:55.05 Relax and get comfortable, 00:24:55.08\00:24:56.76 avoid activities that are too stimulating, 00:24:56.79\00:24:59.62 dimming the lights and reading may help. 00:24:59.65\00:25:02.42 Develop a routine like brushing and flossing your teeth 00:25:02.45\00:25:05.17 and washing your face. 00:25:05.20\00:25:06.88 This signals the brain 00:25:06.91\00:25:08.25 that it's time to get ready to go to sleep. 00:25:08.28\00:25:11.13 Say no to drugs. 00:25:11.16\00:25:12.87 Sleep aids such as sleeping pills should be avoided. 00:25:12.90\00:25:16.10 They increase your risk of many diseases 00:25:16.13\00:25:18.31 as well as shorten your lifespan. 00:25:18.34\00:25:20.83 Your body may look asleep 00:25:20.86\00:25:22.47 but the hormones and reparative processes 00:25:22.50\00:25:24.70 are not being optimized. 00:25:24.73\00:25:26.69 Perhaps because the REM phase of sleep 00:25:26.72\00:25:28.95 is not achieved ideally. 00:25:28.98\00:25:31.84 Watch what you eat, if your stomach is still turning away 00:25:31.87\00:25:35.22 you could imagine why it may be hard 00:25:35.25\00:25:37.15 to go to sleep and to stay asleep. 00:25:37.18\00:25:39.31 It is best to eat your lightest meal in the evening 00:25:39.34\00:25:42.26 and then nothing after that, so no ice cream at bedtime. 00:25:42.29\00:25:47.75 Get active, daily exercise 00:25:47.78\00:25:49.98 and physical activity is not only healthy 00:25:50.01\00:25:52.35 but it helps promote better sleep. 00:25:52.38\00:25:54.64 But be careful about exercising too late at night 00:25:54.67\00:25:57.53 as this will boost you energy 00:25:57.56\00:25:59.81 and may make it more difficult to go to sleep. 00:25:59.84\00:26:03.72 And last be thankful, closing the day 00:26:03.75\00:26:06.51 by contemplating the day's blessings 00:26:06.54\00:26:08.84 and spending time in prayer 00:26:08.87\00:26:10.50 is another way to get peaceful sleep. 00:26:10.53\00:26:13.50 Forgive those who need to 00:26:13.53\00:26:15.10 and make amends with the people you've wronged. 00:26:15.13\00:26:17.95 This way you can go to bed without these issues 00:26:17.98\00:26:20.70 crowding you thoughts. 00:26:20.73\00:26:23.10 It might have been sometimes 00:26:23.13\00:26:24.57 since you felt great in the morning, 00:26:24.60\00:26:26.96 but waking up clear mind and zest 00:26:26.99\00:26:29.47 to start the day is entirely possible 00:26:29.50\00:26:32.19 and entirely worth turning off the light 00:26:32.22\00:26:34.68 an hour earlier than usual. 00:26:34.71\00:26:37.22 Tyr it for a week 00:26:37.25\00:26:38.52 and then try it for the rest of your life. 00:26:38.55\00:26:40.65 You'll feel better, you'll think clear, 00:26:40.68\00:26:42.70 you look better, and you'll even live longer. 00:26:42.73\00:26:45.84 You're killing me. 00:26:57.61\00:26:58.85 You're killing me. 00:27:02.21\00:27:03.82 Actually, Dad, you are killing yourself. 00:27:03.85\00:27:08.44 With the only program 00:27:08.47\00:27:09.52 scientifically proven to prolong life by 10 years, 00:27:09.55\00:27:12.52 the Newstart Lifestyle Program can significantly decrease 00:27:12.55\00:27:15.61 the risk of disease, including diabetes. 00:27:15.64\00:27:18.15 You're done with that?
