Hi, friends, and
welcome to another edition
00:01:11.97\00:01:14.00
of NEWSTART Now.
00:01:14.04\00:01:15.50
I'm your host Ron Giannoni.
00:01:15.54\00:01:18.11
In our studio, I
have a lovely young lady,
00:01:18.14\00:01:20.54
but before I introduce her,
00:01:20.58\00:01:22.54
let's take a look at
when she first arrived.
00:01:22.58\00:01:25.15
I came here because I
have the opportunity to do so.
00:01:28.05\00:01:31.49
I fought with my weight
since I was two years old.
00:01:31.52\00:01:34.69
I don't think I was
fighting so much then,
00:01:34.72\00:01:36.76
but I was fighting for food.
00:01:36.79\00:01:38.89
So I've always
wanted to come here,
00:01:38.93\00:01:40.43
my husband wanted to come here,
00:01:40.46\00:01:41.83
but it cost quite a bit.
00:01:41.86\00:01:44.03
And my husband passed a
little over three years ago.
00:01:44.07\00:01:49.70
I had the time, I had the means,
00:01:49.90\00:01:53.34
and I thought, "I'm
going to go to Weimar,
00:01:53.38\00:01:55.21
and it's just for me."
00:01:55.24\00:01:57.15
I want to learn to eat healthy.
00:01:57.18\00:02:01.18
I believe my body is the temple
00:02:01.22\00:02:02.68
for the Holy Spirit.
00:02:02.72\00:02:04.72
And I really want
it to be ready for Him.
00:02:04.75\00:02:09.32
That's my main goal
is to prepare myself
00:02:09.36\00:02:11.93
for heaven, for eternity.
00:02:11.96\00:02:14.16
Welcome back,
friends. In our studio...
00:02:16.97\00:02:19.57
Miss Ingalls. Thank you.
00:02:19.60\00:02:22.20
How are you doing,
Kay? I'm doing wonderfully.
00:02:22.24\00:02:24.11
Thank you. Yes, you look better.
00:02:24.14\00:02:26.94
I thought I looked
pretty good last time.
00:02:26.98\00:02:28.64
Well, you were okay. Okay.
00:02:28.68\00:02:31.71
No pun intended. Right. Gotcha.
00:02:31.75\00:02:35.85
So tell me you've gotten
off of couple medications
00:02:35.88\00:02:40.06
that you were taking.
00:02:40.09\00:02:41.42
Yes. Which ones are they?
00:02:41.46\00:02:42.96
One for diabetes, metformin
00:02:42.99\00:02:45.19
and the other one was a
statin for my cholesterol.
00:02:45.23\00:02:48.40
Oh!
00:02:48.43\00:02:49.76
Yeah, you got to get off
the statin, it's just poison.
00:02:49.80\00:02:51.13
Yeah, I got right off of them.
00:02:51.17\00:02:52.73
By the way, the metformin,
00:02:52.77\00:02:56.20
how many times a
day were you taking it?
00:02:56.24\00:02:57.64
Just once. Okay.
00:02:57.67\00:02:59.01
Five hundred milligrams?
00:02:59.04\00:03:00.38
I think, it was, yeah. Yeah.
00:03:00.41\00:03:01.78
And your glucose reading
in the morning then was what?
00:03:01.81\00:03:06.98
One hundred and twenty
to one hundred and thirty.
00:03:07.02\00:03:09.08
And now that you're off
the medication, what is it?
00:03:09.12\00:03:10.95
Right around 100.
00:03:10.99\00:03:12.39
Right around 100? Yeah.
00:03:12.42\00:03:13.76
Isn't that interesting?
00:03:13.79\00:03:15.12
Yes, and they say
they've reversed my diabetes
00:03:15.16\00:03:16.86
and I said, "How do you
know you've reversed it?"
00:03:16.89\00:03:19.03
And they're
looking at my numbers,
00:03:19.06\00:03:20.50
they're consistently low.
00:03:20.53\00:03:22.10
Right, that
definitely... I mean it's...
00:03:22.13\00:03:25.17
But it's kind of
like an alcoholic
00:03:25.20\00:03:26.57
that doesn't drink.
00:03:26.60\00:03:28.10
Oh, in other words,
I better not go back
00:03:28.14\00:03:29.97
to any more chocolate.
00:03:30.01\00:03:31.34
That's right. Stay
away from the chocolate.
00:03:31.37\00:03:33.91
Once every six
months, maybe a treat.
00:03:33.94\00:03:35.28
No. No. Zero.
Abstinence. Total abstinence.
00:03:35.31\00:03:38.65
Really? I hope
so with God's help.
00:03:38.68\00:03:40.58
I do the
chocolate once in a while.
00:03:40.62\00:03:41.95
I can do all things
through Christ's strength
00:03:41.98\00:03:43.72
and support.
00:03:43.75\00:03:45.09
Amen. That's my motto now.
00:03:45.12\00:03:46.92
That's a good segue
into the next question.
00:03:46.96\00:03:50.36
How was your morning worship
00:03:50.39\00:03:53.09
with Pastor Damon?
00:03:53.13\00:03:54.80
Oh, loved it. Loved it.
00:03:54.83\00:03:56.33
And I enjoyed all the
baptisms last Sabbath afternoon,
00:03:56.36\00:03:59.50
that was a joy also.
00:03:59.53\00:04:00.87
Isn't that amazing? It was.
00:04:00.90\00:04:02.77
Nine people
baptized. Or rebaptized.
00:04:02.80\00:04:05.51
Some of them were rebaptized,
but they were baptized, yes.
00:04:05.54\00:04:08.44
A friend of mine
from the church said,
00:04:08.48\00:04:10.31
"Can I come to
the morning worship?"
00:04:10.35\00:04:12.68
I said, "Sure."
00:04:12.71\00:04:14.32
Maybe you've met him, Ron Smith.
00:04:14.35\00:04:16.65
Yes, yes. He was baptized.
00:04:16.69\00:04:18.49
He was baptized.
And he was joyous.
00:04:18.52\00:04:20.96
He was just like, "Thank
you, brother, for calling me.
00:04:20.99\00:04:23.99
Thank you, brother."
Yeah, he's a wonderful man.
00:04:24.03\00:04:26.49
Were you there at Sabbath? No.
00:04:26.53\00:04:28.30
I had house guest from Arizona.
00:04:28.33\00:04:32.93
The lady and the
gentleman used to work here,
00:04:32.97\00:04:35.40
Richard and Ronda Smith.
00:04:35.44\00:04:37.67
Ronda was the NEWSTART Director
00:04:37.71\00:04:39.54
and Rich was the
Exercise Therapist.
00:04:39.57\00:04:41.11
Okay.
00:04:41.14\00:04:42.48
Anyway, I had
that company in town
00:04:42.51\00:04:43.85
and I didn't want to leave them.
00:04:43.88\00:04:45.21
We were by your place,
00:04:45.25\00:04:46.98
I think, when we went to
the gold mine the other day.
00:04:47.02\00:04:49.32
I think they said... Oh, yeah.
00:04:49.35\00:04:50.69
Yeah. They said,
"Ron lives here."
00:04:50.72\00:04:52.05
That's an
interesting road you live in.
00:04:52.09\00:04:53.66
Oh, yeah.
00:04:53.69\00:04:55.02
This area is full of
those ravines, and gaps,
00:04:55.06\00:04:58.46
and all these
things they call them.
00:04:58.49\00:04:59.83
Yeah. It's called Gladycon.
00:04:59.86\00:05:01.76
Oh, Gladycon.
00:05:01.80\00:05:03.13
Yeah, that 174th highway
00:05:03.16\00:05:05.20
you took over to the gold mines.
00:05:05.23\00:05:06.74
Yes. Yes. Yeah. Let's
get back to you though.
00:05:06.77\00:05:10.11
You said you've
lost some weight.
00:05:10.14\00:05:11.81
I did.
00:05:11.84\00:05:13.17
But last time you
weighed was last week
00:05:13.21\00:05:15.54
and lost how many pounds?
00:05:15.58\00:05:16.91
Seven, seven point
four or something. Yeah.
00:05:16.95\00:05:20.58
You know, we had a
lady here many years ago
00:05:20.62\00:05:22.78
that didn't lose one pound,
but lost four dress sizes.
00:05:22.82\00:05:26.82
Wow. She went like this.
00:05:26.86\00:05:30.53
And so are you
doing like this too?
00:05:30.56\00:05:32.76
I don't think so.
No, you don't think so?
00:05:32.79\00:05:34.43
You can hug me and
see, but I don't think so.
00:05:34.46\00:05:38.03
A little difference
in my clothing maybe,
00:05:38.07\00:05:40.07
but, you know, I didn't
put it on overnight, Ron,
00:05:40.10\00:05:42.80
and I don't expect to
take it off overnight.
00:05:42.84\00:05:44.74
It's not about the
weight. Not about the weight.
00:05:44.77\00:05:46.84
What's it about? It's about me.
00:05:46.88\00:05:50.35
It's about feeling better.
00:05:50.38\00:05:51.78
I mean, my blood
pressure is never been high,
00:05:51.81\00:05:53.72
but it's never been lower
than since I've been here.
00:05:53.75\00:05:56.08
What's your blood pressure now?
00:05:56.12\00:05:57.69
It was 110\62 or
something this morning.
00:05:57.72\00:06:01.99
I have very good readings.
00:06:02.02\00:06:03.36
Now what do you tribute that to?
00:06:03.39\00:06:05.63
I think that must be
genetics. I don't think...
00:06:05.66\00:06:08.00
It's always been low.
00:06:08.03\00:06:10.57
Oh, always? Always. Yeah.
00:06:10.60\00:06:11.93
I have never been on
blood pressure medicine.
00:06:11.97\00:06:13.57
Oh, okay. There must
be. Yeah. So it stays low.
00:06:13.60\00:06:17.11
It's my sugar
readings that are low.
00:06:17.14\00:06:19.97
So you're going to
stay off the sugars?
00:06:20.01\00:06:21.91
Oh, yes. I'm going
to... What about potluck?
00:06:21.94\00:06:25.55
Well, I'm not going to
do. Well, that's not true.
00:06:25.58\00:06:28.35
Well, I get back to Sabbath,
00:06:28.38\00:06:30.29
the church that I grow up
in and I went to church school,
00:06:30.32\00:06:33.32
they're having a rededication,
Randolph, New York church.
00:06:33.36\00:06:38.06
And so I have been looking
forward to it for months,
00:06:38.09\00:06:41.06
and that's this coming Sabbath.
00:06:41.10\00:06:43.06
I'm only going to be home a day,
00:06:43.10\00:06:44.63
but I have a very dear
friend, Nadine Osborne.
00:06:44.67\00:06:48.34
She said, "If
you send me a recipe
00:06:48.37\00:06:50.97
and let me know
what you can eat,
00:06:51.01\00:06:52.34
I'll cook for you."
00:06:52.37\00:06:53.71
Oh, right. Now
isn't that a blessing?
00:06:53.74\00:06:55.08
That is a blessing.
00:06:55.11\00:06:56.44
So we did easy Mexican beans
00:06:56.48\00:06:58.45
the other day in
the cooking class,
00:06:58.48\00:06:59.81
so I send her that recipe
00:06:59.85\00:07:01.18
and she's going
to fix that for me.
00:07:01.22\00:07:02.68
Great.
00:07:02.72\00:07:04.05
Now what are you going
to do when you get home?
00:07:04.09\00:07:05.95
Sleep.
00:07:05.99\00:07:08.69
I know you're going to sleep.
00:07:08.72\00:07:10.06
But what you're going
to do when you're wake?
00:07:10.09\00:07:11.43
I will pet my dog.
Touch your dog. Okay.
00:07:11.46\00:07:13.03
I haven't seen
him in quite a while.
00:07:13.06\00:07:15.00
And love my dog.
00:07:15.03\00:07:16.97
And I've already
started working on my meal plan.
00:07:17.00\00:07:20.00
Of course, I have
to go grocery shopping.
00:07:20.04\00:07:22.67
I looked at what they
gave me, you know, my choices,
00:07:22.70\00:07:25.87
and I have some
of that in the house.
00:07:25.91\00:07:27.74
Do you like
rice, beans, oatmeal?
00:07:27.78\00:07:30.08
I better. Nuts?
00:07:30.11\00:07:32.01
That's all I could eat.
00:07:32.05\00:07:33.38
Stock up. Yes. Yes.
00:07:33.42\00:07:34.75
Make some fresh beans.
00:07:34.78\00:07:36.12
And my granddaughter's there
00:07:36.15\00:07:37.49
and she's going to go get
fresh fruit before I get home.
00:07:37.52\00:07:38.85
That's the one thing you
can't have in the cupboard
00:07:38.89\00:07:40.96
is the fresh fruit.
00:07:40.99\00:07:42.32
Right.
00:07:42.36\00:07:43.69
So she's willing
to go shopping for me.
00:07:43.73\00:07:45.06
So I'm blessed with
good friends, good family,
00:07:45.09\00:07:47.90
probably Friday, I'll
go to the grocery store.
00:07:47.93\00:07:49.63
Oh, I understand,
you're not only blessed,
00:07:49.66\00:07:51.27
but highly favored.
00:07:51.30\00:07:52.67
Oh, probably. I like that.
00:07:52.70\00:07:56.30
Who is your favorite
person aside from me?
00:07:56.34\00:07:58.91
You mean here at
NEWSTART? Yes, here.
00:07:58.94\00:08:00.84
Oh, I love them all.
00:08:00.88\00:08:02.21
We've all become one big family.
00:08:02.24\00:08:03.58
We were sitting
there last night saying,
00:08:03.61\00:08:05.61
"Two weeks ago, today,
00:08:05.65\00:08:06.98
we didn't even know each other."
00:08:07.02\00:08:08.45
Isn't that amazing?
00:08:08.48\00:08:09.82
We got a
wonderful staff of people.
00:08:09.85\00:08:11.39
Oh, yes, yes.
00:08:11.42\00:08:12.82
Each person that I
come in contact with,
00:08:12.85\00:08:15.89
they're all just so dedicated
to their work and to serving.
00:08:15.92\00:08:20.10
Yes, Dana, is a
blessing. But they all are.
00:08:20.13\00:08:23.87
I mean, I
shouldn't even mention one
00:08:23.90\00:08:25.33
because all those
nurses are wonderful.
00:08:25.37\00:08:27.64
No, it's okay,
you mentioned one.
00:08:27.67\00:08:29.30
I did. I did, Dana.
I won't tell anybody.
00:08:29.34\00:08:30.97
We'll just tell the
world, but we won't tell them.
00:08:31.01\00:08:32.34
Yeah.
00:08:32.37\00:08:34.01
But I found just each
one of those nurses...
00:08:34.04\00:08:36.81
And the blessing here is
like before they do anything,
00:08:36.85\00:08:41.15
they take your hand
and they start with prayer.
00:08:41.18\00:08:43.28
Yeah.
00:08:43.32\00:08:44.65
I had blood work this morning
and I'm not an easy draw,
00:08:44.69\00:08:47.32
and we had a prayer first,
you know, and things go better.
00:08:47.36\00:08:52.49
Who did the draw?
00:08:52.53\00:08:53.86
Two girls. Two girls.
00:08:53.90\00:08:55.96
One to hold you down? No.
00:08:56.00\00:08:57.73
One of them tried in my hand
00:08:57.77\00:08:59.63
and then her sister
got it in my arm, you know?
00:08:59.67\00:09:03.44
There's a gentleman
there, I can't think, Sal.
00:09:03.47\00:09:05.97
Sal. He's the guy.
00:09:06.01\00:09:07.34
He's the guy, but he was
so backed up this morning.
00:09:07.38\00:09:09.41
He hits you once and that's it.
00:09:09.44\00:09:11.55
We're out of time, Kay.
So fast. Thank you, dear.
00:09:11.58\00:09:15.35
I hope you can edit
that. God bless you.
00:09:15.38\00:09:18.15
We don't edit here.
We only talk about it.
00:09:18.19\00:09:20.86
Thank you. Thank you.
00:09:20.89\00:09:22.22
Don't go away.
00:09:22.26\00:09:23.59
And don't you go away
because Dr. Kay is up next.
00:09:23.63\00:09:26.76
Every year in America,
00:09:29.96\00:09:31.30
there are over
one million deaths
00:09:31.33\00:09:32.67
because of type 2
diabetes and chronic obesity.
00:09:32.70\00:09:35.60
This includes heart
attacks and strokes.
00:09:35.64\00:09:38.04
That's six and a half
747s crashing every day.
00:09:38.07\00:09:41.54
What's even worse is
that the fix is easy.
00:09:41.58\00:09:44.91
It's your lifestyle.
00:09:44.95\00:09:46.55
Wouldn't it be nice
if you could actually add
00:09:46.58\00:09:48.32
quality years to your life
00:09:48.35\00:09:49.75
rather than dying
one organ at a time?
00:09:49.78\00:09:52.65
Obesity and
diabetes are the cause
00:09:52.69\00:09:54.29
of over a
million deaths per year.
00:09:54.32\00:09:56.86
Most diseases are reversible
00:09:56.89\00:09:58.89
because most diseases
are lifestyle diseases,
00:09:58.93\00:10:01.83
especially type 2
diabetes and chronic obesity.
00:10:01.86\00:10:05.40
Seriously now,
they can be reversed
00:10:05.43\00:10:07.50
and the quality of
your life can be renewed.

00:10:25.12\00:10:27.86
Welcome back, friends.
00:10:33.09\00:10:34.53
Today, in studio, we
have with us Dr. Kuninobo
00:10:34.56\00:10:37.90
or affectionately
known as Dr. Kay. Dr. Kay.
00:10:37.93\00:10:42.20
Damon. Welcome.
00:10:42.24\00:10:43.94
Thank you, Sir.
00:10:43.97\00:10:46.41
We're going to talk
about Kay for a little bit.
00:10:46.44\00:10:49.38
Oh, okay.?
00:10:49.41\00:10:50.75
And she had some
challenges coming here,
00:10:50.78\00:10:52.91
she had lost her husband,
she had gotten out of shape,
00:10:52.95\00:10:56.62
she had gotten into
a pretty poor condition
00:10:56.65\00:10:59.25
physically,
00:10:59.29\00:11:00.62
but she came here and
you saw something in her
00:11:00.66\00:11:03.29
that was very
unique to her healing.
00:11:03.32\00:11:05.66
What was that?
00:11:05.69\00:11:07.03
Well, from the
very first day we met,
00:11:07.06\00:11:09.56
we have what's
called orientation,
00:11:09.60\00:11:10.93
we walk into the room
and I hear this voice say,
00:11:10.97\00:11:14.90
"Hey, there's a
Dr. Kay. I'm Kay.
00:11:14.94\00:11:17.01
We're going to get along great."
00:11:17.04\00:11:18.37
You know, she had this
00:11:18.41\00:11:19.74
just this positive
attitude about her,
00:11:19.77\00:11:21.94
which was wonderful.
00:11:21.98\00:11:23.45
And, you know, despite
life had been tough on her,
00:11:23.48\00:11:29.15
I would say
difficulty with her back,
00:11:29.18\00:11:32.29
mobility issues,
diabetes, losing her husband,
00:11:32.32\00:11:36.02
and she said always
struggling with weight
00:11:36.06\00:11:38.09
since she was young.
00:11:38.13\00:11:41.00
Nothing ever seemed to
ever bother her or get her down.
00:11:41.03\00:11:44.63
She was always
up and ready to go.
00:11:44.67\00:11:47.67
And that attitude
was really important.
00:11:47.70\00:11:50.14
Yeah, she was a
very upbeat person.
00:11:50.17\00:11:52.47
She was on a
walker for some time here.
00:11:52.51\00:11:55.31
But she was always
there, active with everything,
00:11:55.34\00:11:58.18
all the trails, all
the walking at the mine,
00:11:58.21\00:12:01.12
she was always
doing what she could do
00:12:01.15\00:12:03.62
the best that she could.
00:12:03.65\00:12:06.25
And did it have
a payoff for her?
00:12:06.29\00:12:07.89
Oh, it absolutely had a
payoff for her. Absolutely.
00:12:07.92\00:12:11.09
You know, many
people when they come here,
00:12:11.13\00:12:12.83
want to see results.
00:12:12.86\00:12:15.03
But they think
it's going to happen
00:12:15.06\00:12:16.40
by magic or
something, I don't know.
00:12:16.43\00:12:18.60
But she put the work in,
00:12:18.63\00:12:19.97
and yes, she actually
saw wonderful results.
00:12:20.00\00:12:22.30
She had lost almost 10 pounds.
00:12:22.34\00:12:24.51
It was great to see.
00:12:24.54\00:12:26.11
And that's not always easy
00:12:26.14\00:12:27.48
when you're, you
know, a smaller person.
00:12:27.51\00:12:31.21
Short too. Yeah.
00:12:31.25\00:12:32.78
Yes, I mean she
was a shorter person.
00:12:32.81\00:12:35.95
And seems also
like the older we are,
00:12:35.98\00:12:37.95
the more difficult to
have losing weight sometimes,
00:12:37.99\00:12:39.89
and ladies have a
harder time than men.
00:12:39.92\00:12:41.86
So she had some of
these big strikes against you,
00:12:41.89\00:12:44.76
so to speak,
00:12:44.79\00:12:46.13
where sometimes,
weight loss is more modest
00:12:46.16\00:12:47.76
and it's easy to get down.
00:12:47.80\00:12:49.13
And the fact
that she couldn't walk
00:12:49.16\00:12:51.87
the same way
everybody else could,
00:12:51.90\00:12:54.30
you know, many people are out,
00:12:54.34\00:12:55.67
you know, as soon
as the gun went off,
00:12:55.70\00:12:57.04
they're out
hiking, doing things,
00:12:57.07\00:12:59.97
and she was with the walker,
just doing what she could.
00:13:00.01\00:13:02.98
And, you know, I think
that's a really important lesson
00:13:03.01\00:13:05.01
because there are
many of our viewers
00:13:05.05\00:13:06.61
I'm sure who...
00:13:06.65\00:13:08.28
You know, life
has not been great,
00:13:08.32\00:13:10.42
things happen.
00:13:10.45\00:13:11.79
And we, sometimes,
00:13:11.82\00:13:13.15
have a lot of
excuses of why not.
00:13:13.19\00:13:17.66
You know, but she
looked for excuses to do,
00:13:17.69\00:13:24.00
"Why not do it? I can
do it. Doesn't matter?"
00:13:24.03\00:13:26.87
You know, the other
why not, "Why not do it?
00:13:26.90\00:13:29.44
I can do it. I can do anything.
00:13:29.47\00:13:30.97
You know, what I can
do, I'm going to do."
00:13:31.01\00:13:32.94
And that real positive
attitude makes a difference.
00:13:32.97\00:13:35.44
Yeah, there's a lot of
studies that have been done
00:13:35.48\00:13:37.91
on how a positive
attitude can affect you
00:13:37.95\00:13:41.88
'cause you're right,
there's a lot of guests
00:13:41.92\00:13:43.35
that do come here
and when they hear,
00:13:43.39\00:13:46.22
you know, Dr. Gallant tells them
00:13:46.25\00:13:47.59
right off the
bat, "Your new medicine
00:13:47.62\00:13:48.96
is going to be
walking, and diet,
00:13:48.99\00:13:52.66
and drinking,
and getting outside."
00:13:52.69\00:13:55.03
When they hear all this activity
00:13:55.06\00:13:57.27
and interaction,
00:13:57.30\00:13:58.83
taking a responsibility
for their own health,
00:13:58.87\00:14:00.84
it discourages some
people, and they're like,
00:14:00.87\00:14:02.97
"I don't know if I
signed up for this."
00:14:03.00\00:14:04.81
But whereas, people
like Kay, and you're right,
00:14:04.84\00:14:08.14
comes severely handicapped
to what most people would be.
00:14:08.18\00:14:11.28
She's got all these
issues, but she does her best,
00:14:11.31\00:14:13.55
she's got a great attitude,
00:14:13.58\00:14:15.02
and she leaves
here in good shape,
00:14:15.05\00:14:16.79
somewhat, you know?
00:14:16.82\00:14:18.15
And she's got a long road to go,
00:14:18.19\00:14:19.52
she knows that,
00:14:19.55\00:14:20.89
but she is
definitely on the road.
00:14:20.92\00:14:23.83
And so did her numbers change?
Did she... Her diabetes...
00:14:23.86\00:14:27.10
Her diabetes
numbers are improved.
00:14:27.13\00:14:28.96
Yeah, absolutely.
00:14:29.00\00:14:30.33
All her weight, diabetes,
everything did so much better.
00:14:30.37\00:14:33.37
And there's one other
aspect that's really important
00:14:33.40\00:14:35.80
and that was not just a
positive attitude by itself,
00:14:35.84\00:14:39.01
but an attitude of positivity
and trust in God, you know?
00:14:39.04\00:14:44.05
And that relationship and
walk with God that she had,
00:14:44.08\00:14:48.08
I know it was a
source of strength for her
00:14:48.12\00:14:50.49
and I'm sure a lot of
where that positivity came from.
00:14:50.52\00:14:52.59
Oh, sure because I
had a Fresh Start lecture,
00:14:52.62\00:14:54.59
you know, and she
was one of those there
00:14:54.62\00:14:56.89
with her Bible
open, taking notes,
00:14:56.93\00:14:59.19
and she always was
writing step along with me.
00:14:59.23\00:15:03.00
And that's why we
do what we do here.
00:15:03.03\00:15:05.73
We bring the
spiritual in with the health
00:15:05.77\00:15:07.74
for a reason and a purpose.
00:15:07.77\00:15:09.80
It does create a
positive attitude,
00:15:09.84\00:15:11.97
but it's also the help
that they're going to need.
00:15:12.01\00:15:14.24
I mean all the tools
for spiritual recovery
00:15:14.28\00:15:16.44
are the same tools
that you're going to need
00:15:16.48\00:15:18.08
to help you with health.
00:15:18.11\00:15:19.75
And people like Kay can
greatly benefit from it.
00:15:19.78\00:15:22.88
And, you know, a better
health, a better outlook,
00:15:22.92\00:15:26.22
a better
activity, it would help you
00:15:26.25\00:15:28.12
also with people
they get in her situation
00:15:28.16\00:15:30.63
or losing a spouse.
00:15:30.66\00:15:32.06
It gives her a positive
outlet to not get caught
00:15:32.09\00:15:35.86
into depression
and things like that.
00:15:35.90\00:15:37.70
Yeah. Exactly.
Yes, so what would...
00:15:37.73\00:15:40.74
You know,
parting words about Kay?
00:15:40.77\00:15:42.37
What would stand out
to you the most about her
00:15:42.40\00:15:44.47
that you could
encourage other people with it,
00:15:44.51\00:15:46.17
in a similar situation?
00:15:46.21\00:15:48.24
No matter what
and you've been dealt,
00:15:48.28\00:15:52.38
there's always another
one, somebody that's worse,
00:15:52.41\00:15:54.85
but that didn't
help you feel better.
00:15:54.88\00:15:56.69
But no matter where you are,
00:15:56.72\00:15:58.05
God can pick you
up and bring you along
00:15:58.09\00:16:00.32
and give you the courage,
strength, and the attitude
00:16:00.36\00:16:03.26
to do well regardless.
00:16:03.29\00:16:04.63
Right.
00:16:04.66\00:16:05.99
So the NEWSTART can help
anybody, anytime, anywhere.
00:16:06.03\00:16:08.80
These principles combined
with God working in your life.
00:16:08.83\00:16:12.73
They're magical.
They're powerful tools.
00:16:12.77\00:16:15.50
And, you know,
someone like that,
00:16:15.54\00:16:17.11
that comes here, that's hurting,
00:16:17.14\00:16:18.51
that's painful to see them leave
00:16:18.54\00:16:22.21
in a different state of
mind is such a blessing.
00:16:22.24\00:16:25.11
Amen.
00:16:25.15\00:16:26.48
Well, Dr. Kay,
we're out of time.
00:16:26.51\00:16:27.85
But thank you so much
for your ministry here.
00:16:27.88\00:16:29.22
Oh, you're most welcome.
00:16:29.25\00:16:30.69
It always good to
talk with you, Damon.
00:16:30.72\00:16:33.36
Friends, don't go
away. We'll be right back.
00:16:33.39\00:16:35.82
Welcome back, friends.
Help me welcome Pastor Snead.
00:16:39.66\00:16:42.73
Hey, friend. Thanks.
00:16:42.76\00:16:44.10
Yeah.
00:16:44.13\00:16:45.47
I want to explain to our
guests who are watching now
00:16:45.50\00:16:49.54
that you were here
interviewing doctors
00:16:49.57\00:16:52.74
and now you're there, next time,
00:16:52.77\00:16:55.71
maybe you can be the
doctor, and I'll be the pastor.
00:16:55.74\00:16:59.61
Yeah, I don't think so.
00:16:59.65\00:17:01.58
That was an odd
experience to be over there.
00:17:01.62\00:17:04.35
I even caught myself
sounding a little bit like you.
00:17:04.39\00:17:09.16
Well, that's not
a bad thing, I hope.
00:17:09.19\00:17:11.39
Anyway, thank you for being here
00:17:11.43\00:17:13.50
and I want to talk
about Kay real quick
00:17:13.53\00:17:15.83
because Kay said
some things to me
00:17:15.86\00:17:19.63
that are pretty profound.
00:17:19.67\00:17:21.30
I mean, knowing that her body
00:17:21.34\00:17:23.77
is the temple
of the Holy Spirit.
00:17:23.81\00:17:26.51
It was so good
to hear or say that.
00:17:26.54\00:17:28.81
But she was skating
over some issues that she has
00:17:28.84\00:17:33.38
and focusing all about weight.
00:17:33.42\00:17:36.72
Now weight comes in a
lot of different forms,
00:17:36.75\00:17:39.52
both spiritually and physically.
00:17:39.55\00:17:41.32
That's right.
00:17:41.36\00:17:42.69
And so what do you have to say
00:17:42.72\00:17:45.09
about her learning
here at the NEWSTART program
00:17:45.13\00:17:51.50
about her spiritual wellbeing?
00:17:51.53\00:17:54.04
Well, I think, with Kay
is they're so many others.
00:17:54.07\00:17:57.34
That last statement
that she makes is loaded,
00:17:57.37\00:18:01.84
it's a big idea that...
00:18:01.88\00:18:05.11
Yes, God...
00:18:05.15\00:18:06.68
And I think, primarily we
got to keep focus on the gospel
00:18:06.72\00:18:09.18
that is her...
00:18:09.22\00:18:10.55
'cause she said, "I
want to be in heaven."
00:18:10.59\00:18:12.92
And that's why we take
the time when people come here
00:18:12.95\00:18:16.32
is to go through the
gospel step by step by step
00:18:16.36\00:18:20.20
so that you know that
your feet are grounded
00:18:20.23\00:18:23.80
solidly in Christ and you know
00:18:23.83\00:18:26.90
that you can have
that assurance of faith,
00:18:26.94\00:18:28.77
you have assurance of salvation.
00:18:28.80\00:18:30.87
And she said, she's of 72,
00:18:30.91\00:18:33.07
I don't know how
much longer we'll be here,
00:18:33.11\00:18:34.51
I don't know how much longer
this world's going to be here,
00:18:34.54\00:18:37.35
and so that was on her
mind and very important.
00:18:37.38\00:18:40.55
And so we take
the time at NEWSTART
00:18:40.58\00:18:42.45
to make sure people have
that assurance of salvation.
00:18:42.48\00:18:45.35
But she also recognized
the importance of the physical
00:18:45.39\00:18:48.92
that God also wants
while we're here on this earth
00:18:48.96\00:18:52.19
to have the bodies
as fit as possible,
00:18:52.23\00:18:54.16
that's part of our requirements,
00:18:54.20\00:18:55.63
part of the things
that God expects from us.
00:18:55.66\00:18:57.77
She said
something rather interesting
00:18:57.80\00:18:59.67
that we talked about briefly,
00:18:59.70\00:19:01.90
and that is her
husband passed three years ago.
00:19:01.94\00:19:05.04
And you made a comment.
00:19:05.07\00:19:06.41
Isn't it interesting
that we see ladies or even men
00:19:06.44\00:19:10.61
who come through the program
00:19:10.65\00:19:12.45
after their
significant other has passed
00:19:12.48\00:19:16.25
only to learn that what
the lifestyle they were leading
00:19:16.28\00:19:20.09
led to that death?
00:19:20.12\00:19:22.32
That's right. Can you
elaborate on that one?
00:19:22.36\00:19:24.69
Oh, I've been here 2 years now
00:19:24.73\00:19:26.86
and at least 700
people have come through.
00:19:26.90\00:19:29.06
And I know scores
and scores of women,
00:19:29.10\00:19:32.70
and women
technically outlive men.
00:19:32.73\00:19:36.40
But I have seen
it over and over.
00:19:36.44\00:19:38.21
Women come when their husbands'
been dead a year, two years,
00:19:38.24\00:19:40.64
six months, you know,
three years, whatever.
00:19:40.68\00:19:43.58
It's the same story
over, and over, and over.
00:19:43.61\00:19:45.61
And now they're coming to do
something about their health.
00:19:45.65\00:19:48.65
And they realize how
important it would have been
00:19:48.68\00:19:51.59
for their husband five years ago
00:19:51.62\00:19:54.26
if they would
have came together,
00:19:54.29\00:19:57.09
the husband, more than likely,
00:19:57.13\00:19:58.63
would have made
all these reversals
00:19:58.66\00:20:01.13
and still be alive.
00:20:01.16\00:20:02.53
They could be
doing a program together.
00:20:02.56\00:20:04.17
So if I could
say one thing to men,
00:20:04.20\00:20:06.60
don't take your
women outlive you.
00:20:06.63\00:20:08.17
Right.
00:20:08.20\00:20:09.54
You know, come to the
program before they do
00:20:09.57\00:20:11.81
because especially
the older that men get,
00:20:11.84\00:20:14.74
the more important it is,
the more likely you will die
00:20:14.78\00:20:17.58
before your spouse, your wife.
00:20:17.61\00:20:19.48
And so this place has the power
and potential to reverse that.
00:20:19.51\00:20:23.69
And, you know, Kay is
just an example of that.
00:20:23.72\00:20:25.99
Dr. Ing used to say,
00:20:26.02\00:20:27.36
"You know, if you come
to the NEWSTART program,
00:20:27.39\00:20:30.29
chances are you'll live
another 10, 15, 20 years.
00:20:30.33\00:20:34.70
And if your own
Social Security only...
00:20:34.73\00:20:37.50
This is the example he gave.
00:20:37.53\00:20:39.33
"And let's say you getting
00:20:39.37\00:20:41.14
$10,000 a year
on Social Security,
00:20:41.17\00:20:42.84
which is a low number,
and you live another 10 years,
00:20:42.87\00:20:47.84
that's $100,000.
00:20:47.88\00:20:50.38
And 20 years would be $200,000.
00:20:50.41\00:20:54.45
So to pay $4,000, $5,000
00:20:54.48\00:20:56.72
for a session
is nothing, right?"
00:20:56.75\00:20:59.02
That's the example he gave.
00:20:59.05\00:21:00.86
Nonetheless, I like what you say
00:21:00.89\00:21:02.76
about husband and
wife coming together.
00:21:02.79\00:21:05.43
I think that would be huge
00:21:05.46\00:21:07.16
if we get spouse here together.
00:21:07.20\00:21:09.36
That's right.
00:21:09.40\00:21:10.73
They'd benefit each other,
00:21:10.77\00:21:12.10
they both know
what they're doing,
00:21:12.13\00:21:14.37
and they will get to
live longer together.
00:21:14.40\00:21:16.17
Amen. I mean, right.
00:21:16.20\00:21:17.54
You want to be
with your loved ones
00:21:17.57\00:21:18.91
as much as you can.
00:21:18.94\00:21:20.28
And they can both
go to heaven together
00:21:20.31\00:21:24.25
rather than...
00:21:24.28\00:21:25.61
That's right.
They'll get the spirit.
00:21:25.65\00:21:26.98
They'll make
sure they both got it.
00:21:27.02\00:21:28.35
Amen.
00:21:28.38\00:21:30.02
I want to thank
you for two things.
00:21:30.05\00:21:32.09
Thank you for
filling in for me earlier.
00:21:32.12\00:21:34.99
And thank you for your
time. God bless you, brother.
00:21:35.02\00:21:38.36
I'll see you
around. Don't go away.
00:21:38.39\00:21:40.40
We have an
important message to follow.
00:21:40.43\00:21:42.16
Welcome to Weimar
Institute Research.
00:22:18.27\00:22:21.14
Weimar Institute is
committed to not only improving
00:22:21.17\00:22:25.31
patients'
clinically who come here,
00:22:25.34\00:22:27.98
but actually
documenting the results
00:22:28.01\00:22:31.01
and doing studies that can help
00:22:31.05\00:22:33.55
educate the world
00:22:33.58\00:22:35.38
on how it can be a better place,
00:22:35.42\00:22:37.49
and how we can
utilize information
00:22:37.52\00:22:40.99
in healing our hurting world.
00:22:41.02\00:22:43.39
One of the ways in which
the world hurts, Dr. Ramirez,
00:22:43.43\00:22:47.43
who by the way is our Director
of Weimar Institute Research
00:22:47.46\00:22:51.30
and teaches our pre-med students
00:22:51.33\00:22:53.34
and nursing
students at the college
00:22:53.37\00:22:55.20
and research methods.
00:22:55.24\00:22:57.21
One of the ways in
which the world hurts
00:22:57.24\00:23:00.74
is chest pain.
00:23:00.78\00:23:02.98
We call it angina.
00:23:03.01\00:23:04.81
Tell us a little bit
about what angina is.
00:23:04.85\00:23:06.88
Yeah.
00:23:06.92\00:23:08.25
Angina is when the
arteries of the heart
00:23:08.28\00:23:11.12
have been so closed
through atherosclerosis
00:23:11.15\00:23:16.22
that the heart
doesn't get enough oxygen
00:23:16.26\00:23:19.19
and starts complaining
00:23:19.23\00:23:20.60
anytime you do
some sort of exercise,
00:23:20.63\00:23:23.16
even small amounts of exercise
00:23:23.20\00:23:25.80
can trigger a pain in the heart.
00:23:25.83\00:23:28.44
These people are in big trouble
00:23:28.47\00:23:30.81
because heart attack
is just next door to them.
00:23:30.84\00:23:33.94
Okay.
00:23:33.98\00:23:35.31
So angina or chest pressure,
often, it really isn't a pain.
00:23:35.34\00:23:40.22
I've had many patients say,
"Well, it's not really a pain,
00:23:40.25\00:23:43.65
it's a pressure.
00:23:43.69\00:23:45.02
You know, it feels
like maybe an elephant
00:23:45.05\00:23:47.26
is sitting on my chest."
00:23:47.29\00:23:49.12
And it can
radiate up into the neck,
00:23:49.16\00:23:51.19
and into the jaw,
00:23:51.23\00:23:52.56
and it can go into the left arm.
00:23:52.59\00:23:54.73
And sometimes, you
can get nauseated with it.
00:23:54.76\00:23:57.67
You can get short of breath,
you can break out into a sweat.
00:23:57.70\00:24:01.40
And when you quit
exercising, it goes away
00:24:01.44\00:24:04.57
'cause the heart's
able to pick back up again
00:24:04.61\00:24:06.78
and it's not
having to work so hard
00:24:06.81\00:24:08.58
for those constricted arteries.
00:24:08.61\00:24:11.21
Well, many
people with that symptom
00:24:11.25\00:24:13.52
come to Weimar Institute
00:24:13.55\00:24:15.35
to go through
the NEWSTART program.
00:24:15.38\00:24:17.82
And sad to say, Dr. Ramirez,
00:24:17.85\00:24:19.79
we've had many
patients come here
00:24:19.82\00:24:21.46
because they're out of options,
00:24:21.49\00:24:23.43
they've had all the
bypasses they can have,
00:24:23.46\00:24:25.89
they have no veins left
in their legs to bypass,
00:24:25.93\00:24:29.70
and their heart surgeon says,
00:24:29.73\00:24:32.20
"There is nothing more
that we can do for you.
00:24:32.23\00:24:34.64
And maybe you need to go
to Weimar Institute now."
00:24:34.67\00:24:37.67
That might have been
nice to know about that
00:24:37.71\00:24:39.24
before you went through
00:24:39.27\00:24:40.61
all of those
heart bypass surgeries
00:24:40.64\00:24:42.24
and the
complications of those surgeries
00:24:42.28\00:24:44.48
because the good
news about atherosclerosis
00:24:44.51\00:24:47.95
is it can be
reversed without surgery.
00:24:47.98\00:24:51.02
And it can actually be reversed
00:24:51.05\00:24:53.09
through diet and
lifestyle factors
00:24:53.12\00:24:54.96
of what we teach people
00:24:54.99\00:24:57.23
and actually put into practice
here at Weimar Institute.
00:24:57.26\00:25:00.66
So tell us what
group was studied
00:25:00.70\00:25:03.57
in this particular study.
00:25:03.60\00:25:05.43
So we focused on those
patients that had angina.
00:25:05.47\00:25:08.74
From 2,080 patients, if we
go and look at that database,
00:25:08.77\00:25:15.18
we find that 133 of them
had angina as a diagnosis,
00:25:15.21\00:25:21.75
why they came to
the NEWSTART program.
00:25:21.78\00:25:24.15
Okay.
00:25:24.19\00:25:25.52
So yeah, it's
amazing, over 2,000 people
00:25:25.55\00:25:28.12
have gone through
the 18-day program
00:25:28.16\00:25:30.43
at the time or during the years
00:25:30.46\00:25:31.93
that you
analyzed on this section.
00:25:31.96\00:25:33.83
Eleven years of
data. Eleven years of data.
00:25:33.86\00:25:36.60
And 133 of them were here
because of their chest pain.
00:25:36.63\00:25:41.10
That's right. And
they were out of options.
00:25:41.14\00:25:43.20
That's right.
00:25:43.24\00:25:44.57
So what we're trying to see,
00:25:44.61\00:25:45.94
what happens to
those risk factors
00:25:45.97\00:25:48.94
that can give us a prognosis,
an idea of what's going
00:25:48.98\00:25:52.08
to come to them
at the long-term.
00:25:52.11\00:25:54.75
So we were
measuring important things
00:25:54.78\00:25:56.95
like cholesterol, and
bad cholesterol, and HDL
00:25:56.99\00:26:02.12
to see what change
does the program will cause
00:26:02.16\00:26:05.49
on this particular
subgroup of patients.
00:26:05.53\00:26:08.13
Okay.
00:26:08.16\00:26:09.50
And so what did we find
out at the end of 18 days?
00:26:09.53\00:26:11.63
So we found out that on average,
00:26:11.67\00:26:13.67
the total
cholesterol on average was 218
00:26:13.70\00:26:16.91
which is high,
00:26:16.94\00:26:18.27
too high for
somebody with angina.
00:26:18.31\00:26:20.68
Those people by the
end of the 18-day program,
00:26:20.71\00:26:25.11
their cholesterol
had dropped 28 points
00:26:25.15\00:26:27.85
and there was a
significant change
00:26:27.88\00:26:29.75
as a result of those 2 values.
00:26:29.78\00:26:32.82
So even if they had
advanced heart disease,
00:26:32.85\00:26:35.16
their cholesterol
still improved dramatically
00:26:35.19\00:26:38.59
as a result of coming
to the 18-day program.
00:26:38.63\00:26:41.20
To start that process
that we were just talking about
00:26:41.23\00:26:43.97
of atherosclerosis reversal,
00:26:44.00\00:26:46.47
as you start doing
these changes long-term,
00:26:46.50\00:26:49.97
patients also started reporting
that the amount of chest pain
00:26:50.01\00:26:54.21
or chest pressure
started to the decrease
00:26:54.24\00:26:56.64
as a result of the blood flow
00:26:56.68\00:26:58.61
started to come
into their heart.
00:26:58.65\00:27:00.42
Now if someone wants to
learn more about this study,
00:27:00.45\00:27:02.78
where was it published?
00:27:02.82\00:27:04.15
And this was published
00:27:04.19\00:27:05.52
in an American
Heart Association Journal
00:27:05.55\00:27:08.29
called
Atherosclerosis, Thrombosis,
00:27:08.32\00:27:10.93
and Vascular Biology.
00:27:10.96\00:27:12.69
Also, LDL cholesterol,
00:27:12.73\00:27:14.56
you know, came down 21 points,
00:27:14.60\00:27:17.70
which is the bad cholesterol,
00:27:17.73\00:27:19.20
the one that is
really triggering
00:27:19.23\00:27:20.90
that atherosclerosis,
00:27:20.94\00:27:23.30
and the HDL, the
good cholesterol,
00:27:23.34\00:27:26.51
it stayed the
same, which is good news.
00:27:26.54\00:27:28.68
Okay, well, I would encourage
anyone with chest pain,
00:27:28.71\00:27:33.82
don't wait until
you're out of options,
00:27:33.85\00:27:36.92
come to NEWSTART Now.
00:27:36.95\00:27:39.62
And thanks for joining us
at Weimar Institute Research.
