00:11 Well, if you're coming back, I know you sided about the first hour. We want to aid.
00:16 >> Yes, I loved it. That's right. And if you're just joining us, I kind of feel 00:23 badly that, you know, it was because she miss so much. However, this second, I was 00:28 going to be has increasingly informative and I say the word increasingly informative 00:33 because we're going to learn a lot more. We can start getting into some of the 00:36 practicalities of what it means to be healthy because a lot of people wonder, well, 00:40 what are the areas of lives that are impacted when I begin to make decisions about having 00:44 a brighter future. And the good news is you don't have to be predisposed to things that 00:49 is so well, I can't do anything about my diabetes. I can do anything and not lines 00:57 my family. And know it's in your plate. It's oftentimes in the quickly bags that you this 01:03 in the fast food. I mean, I've learned that and I have the even been rough on to some 01:09 degree and I'm convicted to continue going in man, but hunting out just for those who 01:14 may not know about our furry off with just remind them about how we have this book 01:16 call, you turn well, we only have a was 100 people. So we saw down low this book. You 01:24 know, you can call us e-mail us, Texas at 618-228-3975. You can text your questions and to 01:34 that number all, you can e-mail us at live at 3 ABN DOT TV. Well, you can call us at 01:41 618-627-4651. That right. And I hope you probably one of the persons, yeah, look, maybe on 01:46 the way because our call center and pastoral department is open a list that you know 01:52 that number 618-627-4651, during the live program. Sometimes you want to call for 01:58 prayer request or you may want to ask a question that one of our past his can answer for 02:03 you. this program has thank you, doctor. Deal. Every time you come. I was how one the 02:08 what's up his sleeve this want to focus on this wonderful. And by the way, this all this 02:13 living fruit in front of him, these are not plastic right? No, no, no last night. And I 02:22 think our crew is going to just descend on these bananas and red peppers. And this at a 02:30 mango over there. focusing on what? We have an artichoke over there and some green 02:37 peppers and a pear and apple. Remember, we went Kevin and Felicia's House week and they 02:41 have a garden. One of our church members, beautiful garden. They moved out of 02:47 Florida. Was Florida and they've never done a garden before. But I said we're so 02:50 proud we had some actually living vegetables and it takes and so much different than 02:56 when you fight in. The stories of Kenya was excellent. Well, Susan, no, low. So nice to be 03:03 with you. Just for the benefit of somebody that may just be joining us the Huntsville has 03:07 been here many times before. And I'm always got when you come here. But Susan, just 03:12 give us an overview justice. Somebody that might have said. And I missed the first hour 03:16 and what are we gonna learn about? But just let us know that about yourself. 03:20 >> Yes, well, I served as the executive Director American College of Lifestyle Medicine, 03:24 which is the nation's medical professional Association for physicians and other allied 03:30 health professionals and health care executives as well. But all who are truly 03:34 passionate about treating root causes of disease. So as we said previously, rather than 03:40 just simply diagnosing symptoms and treating those symptoms with ever-increasing 03:45 quantities of pills and procedures. This is about first attempting to identify 03:50 and eradicate the root cause of disease and then medications may be part of But 03:58 we know that often these conditions are preventable treatable and often 04:01 reversible. And so I've had the privilege of holding the reins at the American College 04:08 of Lifestyle, Medicine for 8 and a half years. And I have known doctor deals since that 04:14 time. My dear friend and colleague and it's been quite the journey. when I joined a C 04:21 l m there were about 380 members and one on staff and today we have a staff of 40 04:30 and over 8,000 members. And so the growth dream has been phenomenal. And it's you know, 04:37 such a privilege. I I often say that the American College of Lifestyle Medicine in the 04:42 field of lifestyle medicine is a magnet for purpose. Passion driven people. It's really all 04:49 of us that understand what's at stake and the urgency of lifestyle medicine becoming 04:56 the foundation of health and all health care. We really need it to be in order to have 05:02 sustainable health, sustainable healthcare and a sustainable world. 05:07 >> And just before we end of the first hour, we saw someone that I want to my hero. Okay. 05:15 Having hero. We have a hero and he's a mayor. Eric Adams, you know, New York mayor of 05:20 New York City's about to turn New York City up inside out for healthy read. Yes, I 05:25 really appreciate is approaching. We'll talk about your meeting him. And yeah, 05:30 I'm not going to preempt any of that, but it's so exciting to hear what he's just not 05:36 addressing. Crime and violence. He's addressing something that is worse than 05:44 crime and That's the pandemic of the chronic diseases that are preventable. they can talk 05:50 about the almost one lined. All him was about to lose fingers and toes and then his 05:54 son. I cannot forget this. His son said Daddy, you have a BMW, put the best. Yeah. 06:00 vehicle. Yeah. Why didn't you put the best food in your body? Absolutely. 06:05 >> Let's talk about has such a powerful personal testimonial. And so it comes from a place 06:11 of such, you know, genuine authenticity because he was he was part of that looming 06:18 pandemic of type 2 diabetes and he made that decision that even though his doctors, his 06:25 own personal physicians who had not been trained in lifestyle medicine, told him 06:31 that he was destined 2 really just endured this degenerative condition and to be a victim 06:40 really and reliant on ever-increasing quantities of medication. And he just said, 06:45 I don't want that. I believe there's another way and he started proactively seeking 06:52 out other experts. And that's what led him as Han shared to Doctor Caldwell Esselstyn both 06:58 times and Doctor Esselstyn or 2 of our founding members. Even back in 2004 when these 07:05 very visionary physicians and medical professionals came together and saw that there 07:09 was no other field of medicine that represented evidence-based, therapeutic 07:15 lifestyle intervention to treat in reverse already existing disease. And then 07:21 again, if the dose is efficacious for treatment, reversal preventions, the 07:24 natural byproduct. But even in 2004 and far more so now, I mean, now we have in the 07:30 United States alone over 60% of all American adults in too many children. Now have 07:38 already been diagnosed with at least one chronic disease and over 40%, 2 or more chronic 07:43 conditions. So to just focus on prevention, while it's important, it's too late. Just 07:48 focus on prevention. And so Eric Adams now and having such a, you know, high-profile 07:56 bully puppet as the mayor of New York. The Chinese really using his own powerful 08:01 personal testimony on this 2 really convey to New Yorkers and to the rest of the world 08:09 that you don't have to be a victim of your gene right? And that's what most of us have. 08:16 Sadly, you know, believe the lie that we're a victim of our genes are mom had our dad had 08:21 it. And so we're destined to as well. And and so Erick is living breathing, breathing 08:26 proof that that is not the case. I mean, even his mother who saw the transformation in 08:33 his health followed suit well, and that did so in her health as well. And it's it's really 08:40 been inspiring to see what he's doing. And and for the American College of Lifestyle 08:44 Medicine to be really assisting in part of this exciting disruptive, a seismic 08:54 shift that's happening in in the city of New York. I like that destructive. There needs 08:58 to be something good to disrupt. so many negative things to 09:03 >> You know, pandemics in crime and all the other things that we here statistically 09:07 just sometimes become numb to it. But it's so good. He had that something positive can 09:12 disrupt a trend that has been overlooked to a large degree. And you also had a chance on a 09:16 show. This photo of you and and Eric Adams of New York City. And just talk about that 09:22 meeting wrote. But that was like. >> That was act. This was 09:28 taken. I I've had the opportunity to engage the mayor on many occasions back 09:33 when he was Brooklyn. Borough President was when I first met him in, he was Brooklyn 09:36 borough president at this particular time. He and I had spoken together at a 09:42 conference and job. And so it was, you know, rave rave reviews for Eric Adams and I 09:49 had the opportunity to come up on stage and follow He he's he's a he's a friend, a 09:58 colleague and someone that I admire a lot in that picture was with also with Marco 10:04 Borgias works with Beyonce and Jay Z who also have adopted a whole food plant, predominant 10:11 lifestyle. And he's an author and fitness expert and and so it's it's exciting to see. 10:20 >> Even in that time that I have been affiliated with the American College of Lifestyle, 10:25 Medicine and in my work, even prior to that. >> To see the winds of change 10:31 are blowing. You know, we're really seeing >> change happen before our 10:36 very eyes. That's right. And some of what we just alluded to in the last segment. 10:39 >> That patients, even that the general population is just rising up and saying we want a 10:49 different way. We really want true health care. We want physicians and medical 10:54 professionals who are equipped and empowered to truly treat our disease and and and 11:02 restore health try. And then we see medical professionals who go into the field of 11:07 medicine with the best of intentions. They truly want to heal. And yet our medical 11:15 education system by and large has been focused almost entirely on aloe path. IQ. 2, 11:20 again, diagnose and treat not truly too to restore health. And but but that's changing. 11:29 And I in the United States where you see this real shift to value-based care and we say 11:35 all the time that if the value add value based care, it It's a shift we're in right now. 11:42 Our system is fee for service. Yeah. And so its fee for service said the more patients 11:47 to see them or procedures. You prescribe. It's it is fee for service and that is not in the 11:55 best interest of patients or providers. So the shift to value about truly rewarding 12:04 physicians, physicians medical professionals take more of the risk. But it's about keeping 12:09 people healthy. And so it is a reimbursement system that rewards really. Good health 12:19 and reigning in disease and far superior outcomes and up. But what's necessary for that 12:25 to manifest is for our medical professionals to be effectively trained and 12:31 evidence-based lifestyle, medicine. And that's the foremost reason for a Simmons 12:35 existence. 2, Phil, that gaping void of lifestyle, medicine and medical 12:44 education. >> And how progress you're making a is there? No abort 12:48 certify it of specialty in life and medicine. But does it entail? 12:51 >> Yes, there there In 2016, a sister organization of ours emerged the American Board of 13:02 Lifestyle Medicine, OK, which hosts the annual certification exam. And so the group was 13:10 certified in 2007 since that time. There have been nearly well well over. 2500 certified 13:16 in the field in the United States alone and over 4,000 around the world because it's 13:23 the certification exam that's hosted in the United States by the American Board of 13:26 Lifestyle Medicine. And then internationally by the international Board of 13:31 Lifestyle Medicine. But it's the same certification exam being hosted globally and then 13:36 the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. We have developed a robust offering of 13:42 a medical education across the entire continuum with heavy CME C E accredited content. 13:51 Much of which becomes the preparatory material to sit for that. continuing medical 13:58 education, right? Because what I've understood and we have a good up to Christine Salter in 14:02 St. Louis >> National Catholic, not us. And she said. That when she 14:06 went to medical school, nutrition was a very, very small minute for education. 14:13 She literally. Yeah, disconnected from that. What you call it just a fee for 14:20 service. Yes, just couldn't get it. And she spends half an hour 30 minutes, 40 minutes 14:25 with the patients. Yeah. And people are noticing she says a showing them how to eat well, 14:33 and the natural foods vegetables to heal them. So and the herbs right to really 14:41 educate people understand that they can take our greater control of their health 14:45 destiny and >> to your point, it is so remarkable that even the 14:51 Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation, which is the largest rip as a Tory of 14:56 health related data in the world. It's out the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation 15:00 funds. It and they looked at all the data from nearly 200 countries and saw that. It's 15:06 what people are and are not eating to be the leading cause of disease and death in the 15:13 world and in their 2019 global burden of Disease reported this was documented. So to 15:21 think, but it's what people are and are not eating that. It's a leading cause of 15:25 disease and death. And yet and our medical education system, there's little to no training 15:32 virtually 9 on what they nutrition can. And so that is changing. And that's why even, 15:41 you know, the McGovern Burgess House resolution, the White House conference on hunger, 15:47 nutrition and health. There are things that are emerging and I think that the growth 15:53 that even the American College of Lifestyle Medicine is seeing, but there's awakening 15:58 that something must change into tonight that also I mean, the you mentioned earlier. 16:07 >> That left the medicine as a certify it a specialty is the fastest growing medical 16:12 specialty in America today. >> and many will will say that. And there's reason to 16:19 believe. I mean, we have the growth has just been phenomenal. and the number of 16:25 people who are seeking certification in the field is nothing short of miraculous. 16:30 The winds of change are blowing. >> And talk about that with 16:34 that, the winds of change right? You know, let me just sort of insert here. We 16:39 haven't really said anything about the effect that our dietary habits I have on the 16:47 planet itself was whether it is the Ecole logic caused disaster that we are seeing 16:52 now whether it's possibly also related to to a climate change there's a brand new from 17:00 coming out just now called eating all way to extinction to major from coming out of 17:06 England has been in the making for 8, 9, years and it talks about the ecological impact 17:14 that are in Lions on super refi. And I have to process food has on the planet. 17:23 >> Yes, yes, tons. It's so true because, you know, the number one cause virtually all 17:28 of our chronic disease. And the number one cause of some of our most pressing global 17:33 sustainability issues is one of the same. It's that, you know, our Western 17:37 industrialized diet. And yet the foods that we need to be eating to protect our health 17:42 and prevent disease are the exact same choices that we need to make in order to 17:49 preserve our natural resources to rein in greenhouse gas emissions. And 2 feed puts in 17:54 will be 9 billion people on the Mesa And that's it's just our planet cannot sustain 18:03 heavy animal protein based diet. There just is not enough land, water or energy. True. 18:10 and yet it's like on the same amount of land. It's exponentially more people can 18:17 be fed. And so it's it's true. It just further reinforces that the choice that's best 18:23 for human health is also what's best for the planet. >> You know, you're going to 18:27 go you become involved with the White House conference on the. Nutrition and health. you 18:35 know, I was just a reading in this book that accompanies this film eating all way to 18:42 extinction. What to talk about the idea that if you take 100 calories that a cow consumes 18:50 to live to exist. When you eat that fresh of the cow, you only get 3. Portions back. So 18:58 it sort of uup feeding this call 100 calories. You only get 3 counties bank in the 19:05 food that you eat in terms of the flesh of the animal. So if you're talking world hunger 19:12 seems to be a very Paul for relationship their rates so much so and even when we look 19:16 at water. >> We've talked a lot about water tonight that it is one 19:20 of our it's probably our most precious natural resources, right? That is wrong. And when 19:23 we look at >> the same amount of water that it takes to produce 10 19:28 pounds of beef. Yeah. And supply household of 4 for an entire year. 19:35 >> How that? >> The same amount of water that it takes to produce 10 19:41 pounds of beef. He can supply a household of 4 with water for entire year. That is 19:48 intensive it is in its consumption of natural resources. And when we look at 19:54 deforestation, the deep forestation that's going on. It's like the Deep Forestation 19:59 is equivalent like the state size of South Carolina every year in the Amazon is just 20:03 being before us did in order to create enough grazing ground to grow crops to feed 20:10 the animals, to then feed the people. So it really I think that is just the elegant power 20:16 of all this. How it so inextricably connected and that the choices that are best 20:21 for our help, the best for the planet. And so it really is win win for us. It is now 20:28 before we go into the I'm looking forward to this graphical breakdown that you 20:32 have Yeah, but remind our viewers and listeners sunny about what our fee office 20:36 tonight and what they can 3 offer is you turn. >> We all want to make a U 20:39 turn right for the good you can. Texas a 618-228-3975. If you have any questions email 20:46 us live at 3ABN DOT TV. Or call 618-627-4651. And we also have has stalled department 20:57 that's open for prayers. And if you don't get if you don't get the hard copy. Well, very 21:04 same information we'll tell you later on that. And we have a Web site we go further on 21:09 how you can get a digital download. Yeah. All of the information that is that's 21:13 contained in this book and also some information that you're about to unwrap Yeah. 21:19 So I'm gonna give you the go ahead to dive into that because I'm looking forward to 21:22 that. >> All right. very good. So we 6 PD F's that are available 21:32 also for download and they covered the 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine. And I 21:38 think that that will be showing those for your viewers. And when we talk 21:43 about the the 6 domains of lifestyle medicine, again, this is about a whole food 21:48 plant predominant dietary lifestyle and regular physical activity and restored of sleep 21:55 and stress management. The avoidance of risky substances and the power of positive 22:01 social connection and purpose in our lives. And so we have one PDF that represents each 22:06 of those. That also will be available to your viewers to be able to download. 22:10 >> Okay. We'll start with one of them. I think let's just go to the first one. And this an 22:14 unwrapped that so that our viewers and listeners can understand what going to be 22:17 downloading. Yes, I think the first one is. >> Food food trumps all. It is 22:22 about a whole food plant. Predominant dietary lifestyle. A night I thought it was 22:26 interesting Mayor Adams in the press conference that we just showed in the last segment, he 22:31 said it's not about vegan. Yeah. He said he said I could eat Oreos and drink Coke can 22:38 be of a gun and that wouldn't be very health promoting. And this is true. And that's why 22:44 evidence shows that it's a whole food plant. Predominant dietary lifestyle. That is the 22:49 most. Health protecting and disease fighting and put very simply it's like, well, wow, 22:58 what what's a plant based diet? Many would ask? Well, it's really consuming the 23:02 foods that grow from the ground in this close to nature's package as possible. 23:08 And so that is our fruits and our vegetables are grains. And when we talk about whole 23:14 grains, if it cooks and 30 seconds, it is not a had a lot up from it. And so again, 23:24 fruits and vegetables and whole grains and beans and lentils and nuts and seeds. 23:31 It's anything that grows from the ground. Those are the only foods that are fiber filled 23:36 and they are fiber filled a nutrient dense in an accident. Rach and that's why we say 23:44 that while all the pillars of lifestyle medicine are important note food does Trump 23:49 all like to serve reinforce the idea of beans. >> You just mentioned them 23:55 briefly beans and lentils. I like to say beings 3 times a day if possible. 3 dean's 24:01 beans, beans, beans, the lentil to that of sentence. Good, Newt and I mean, 24:07 excellent pro tip. If you're worried about protein, it's not really a big issue, 24:09 really. But if you are concerned about protein intake, the finest, the best 24:15 plant protein. You find in been Dudley and beans some 50 kinds of different beans in 24:23 America. Enjoy beans and the people come to us. It her. Have you not heard about a the 24:29 entire social aspect of beans? Haha, anti social social beings runs musical fruit. 24:40 >> I think of the beans have been. I'm necessarily unfairly maligned. Yeah, because it has 24:49 a high fiber content which we really. But it comes in to suddenly if you load up on 24:56 beans to found yes. So you have turbulence there for 2 let's put it to 3 weeks. Yeah, 25:03 the turbulence goes away and everything is just fine. That is so It's so true because 25:09 very, very few. You know, when we look at the standard American diet. 25:13 >> It's 63% packaged processed foods. 25% animal protein and dairy 12% fruits and 25:23 vegetables, which 6% or French fries. And we wonder why we have a disease epidemic or in 25:30 this country hands. To your point. It's so for most people, their their guts have 25:37 really been hijacked because of all of the gist. Edible food like substances that are 25:44 coming in. And so when one begins to 8 fiber filled foods, whether they're fresh 25:51 fruits and vegetables or frozen or canned doesn't really matter. But it's just 25:56 important. But that fiber comes in and it is disruptive. And so oftentimes people 26:01 think, oh, well, no, that gave me a stomach ache. I my body doesn't like asked me, but the 26:07 reality is it's just that you're exposing your body to these fiber filled nutrient 26:12 dense foods that your body isn't used to eating that. You have to be prepared to get 26:17 through the turbulent times. days of just letting your body adjusts to the goodness coming 26:24 and once you make that adjustment. But yes, so the first step PDF is about. Foods 26:31 it's it's the most important pillar of a lifetime of some equation before you go and 26:38 enumerate those more in detail. >> I think it would be 26:42 important for the audience to know that in America, the average person only gets about 26:48 10 to 12 grams of fiber in the diet. But many authorities would recommend more like 35 26:57 40 point, some of the country's Shia, 50 60 grams of fiber. It's a total we are 27:01 deficient in favor. And when fiber foods come into the system too fast? Well, you 27:08 have a 2 to 3 week adjustments and you have to open all the windows and everything gets 27:14 it, but it will well. And and it just if we if you remember anything from tonight's 27:21 broadcast, it's the importance of eating a fiber filled diet. But I mean, we just cannot 27:26 emphasize that enough because >> the the fiber deficiency. But is the culprit for so much 27:34 of our disease? And so even even children, they're struggling with everything 27:40 from constipation to acne, too. You know, you name it. The list goes on and on to a 27:49 large extent, it's being dubbed almost devoid of fiber filled foods. And it's just we 27:57 cannot over emphasize the importance of this time. We spend 2 billion a year in this 28:03 country along on laxatives. And it is of the deficiency of fiber that that that we're 28:06 consuming. Let's go to the second PDA. Very, very quickly into school. Yes, physical 28:11 activity. And as we talked about before, and as your insurance company is making 28:17 sure you're walking those steps and okay and we do, we do have a sedentary population 28:23 in this war in this country and in many parts of the world. and it's tragic. I 28:27 mean, we're seeing the epidemic of of chronic disease and our children now, which is 28:34 you know, such a tragic situation and as well as adults. And we we need to be 28:38 more physically active and it doesn't mean that we need to be out running marathons. Sara 28:46 Lee, I mean, really look at the there's something called Blue Zones population. Yeah. 28:50 Blue zones around the world and how long this longevity in the lowest incidence of 28:54 chronic disease. And Dan Buettner, who's a fellow with National Geographic who really 29:00 he was the one who who has identified these blue zones. He'll say my apologies to the 29:04 exercise. Physiologists out there. This is not about some really complex physical 29:11 fitness routine. This is about walking and gardening and staying physically active 29:17 throughout the lifespan. and we must and sometimes I think I find that people they feel 29:27 defeated. They feel that they've been so physically inactive for so long that they 29:32 they just it's almost a fear of starting. And yet it just get up. Take that first step. 29:37 And then the take a few more steps in the take a few more steps and and it's things that 29:41 we can do, whether we hit the floor and do push-ups or sit-ups or that bit. The 29:50 physical activity is so important and while it cannot. We still I mean. If physical 29:57 activity cannot make up for a poor diet. But it's so important to have those 2 30:02 things has a compact. >> This is another section of of confession because my wife 30:06 does that all the time. Not only does she tell what about what a and a need to walk with 30:10 me. >> Can't get break in let me let our audience know me. 30:21 We're talking about some practicalities here. Absolutely. And these are not 30:24 things. And by the way. >> How much do you have to to walk? How much does it cost? I 30:33 think maybe it could pierce shoes walking shoes. That's about it. But reason I'm 30:37 saying that is because what you introducing right now and they're up for more graphic 30:41 talk about very quickly with a lot of questions that are coming. Also. these arc. Cost 30:49 yeah. Add cost you maybe half an hour. Maybe that's what yes, yes. And I think that, 30:54 you know, there are many myths. >> That we need to one was, 31:00 you know, the protein meth in the calcium FN and the myth that eating healthfully needs 31:05 to be expensive and the math. It exercising needs to be complex and expensive. This is 31:11 so true. It can be simple, simple solutions. You know, we say beans, greens and grains. 31:18 These do not have to be expensive it all. And yet they're so nutrient dense and 31:23 fiber filled and getting out and walking or even walking in place in front of your 31:29 television can do that as well? I have a program for you, OK? It's a simple 31:35 program. It's an easy program. It's a 10 step program. Don't worry about 10,000 steps. 10 31:42 steps OK? That sounds good. 10 steps. >> So what you do, you make a 31:47 pact with yourself that a certain time of the day, you're going to take your 10 31:53 step program. Okay. That's that's how you got. So so you get your running shoes on your 31:58 walking shoes, you get your nice outfit on you. Get your cap on a cake walk outdoors 32:03 and you make 10 steps. You walked to the door and then you open the door. You take 10 32:08 steps to get it. And by the time you finish a 10 step you on your way to the 10,000 OK, 32:17 all You can do it. I can do. great journey began at steps and my wife does that. She 32:24 said walk with me down angel and we live in the country. We can agree that and so much 32:33 natural that right bill air. We thousands of trees around the square. She says just with 32:38 me. Yeah, honey, I'm I'm I'm making a pact. You can. Paul Ryan make an impact on a walk 32:42 with you because I want to be with you will see her. Haha. I love walking. Absolutely. 32:48 Love. Walk in and be nice if you want that. But I do in my break take a walk to. She does 32:54 sometimes because it will issue some walking us that have warned us not that warm 32:56 outside and will continue to watch. It's hot. I'm walking. Yeah. Okay. I think fit in 33:03 not. Was that what I hear when I'm walking? It's important. And what do you do? And I'm 33:11 working on on the computer. all I know. I'm part of those. See, I'm one of you guys that 33:16 are on learning something that I need to do. And you're right. I'm getting older, but 33:22 I need to get more fit just because you're You think lot of people think on thin? I 33:27 don't have to do the exercises. Makes us ice. Do what you do together. You 33:32 actually then begin to talk about another. Yes, that's pillar later on. Yes, that 33:37 social support, poor social loving Tony hand, we love to do keeping hands warm, keeping 33:44 the heart swarm pay. >> That's true. We talk we we are natural talkers, although 33:49 we don't walk and just life. You know, we talked, we talked the talk. And so it's a good 33:55 it is walk with me some time to walk the bridge and back. And when I come back, she says 33:59 to me now come on out. What did you enjoy that? Yeah. And then I feel so much better to 34:05 do that. I have locks engine. I feel my body is saying thank you. It so I'm good. I'm I'm 34:13 really excited about the East Coast now. We have some questions. You want to go to 34:17 the 3rd graphic before so we could if you want to just sort of like flip through, we could 34:22 So certainly again, a whole food plant, predominant dietary lifestyle, regular 34:24 physical activity. And then. >> This is stress management, which is so very, very 34:30 important and many, many different techniques that we can used to manage our stress, 34:36 whether it's deep breathing or prayer or even talking. And you know, very, very important 34:42 in the next one is restorative sleep and this cannot be underestimated. Just the 34:49 importance of our sleep. Not only the quantity, but the quality of our sleep in things 34:54 that we can do before sleep each night to prepare to ensure that we get the best 35:01 sleep possible. and then it Tell us a bit more about sleep. many hours? Oh, well, 35:08 it to 78 hours. is the recommended amount. and it certainly, you know, are 35:14 handheld devices as we were talking about earlier you know, of all ages, children, 35:18 adults, a lot of for so it's completely tied to their handheld devices. And had the 35:25 television and we really need to cut that off at least a half an hour before bed time 35:32 and then use that time to to what h*** rated. really to doctor own right. And he has 35:42 seen the lights dimming and a cool room. And so there's many, many we do techniques 35:48 that can be you may get a sales really important we do We sleep in the cool sometimes 35:52 the windows are dark. >> You know, last night, honey, I woke up. This is so 35:58 funny, I didn't know this. You need talk about the darkness of room. Why is that 36:00 important? Because last night I woke up about 4 o'clock. Her watch was charging and I saw 36:05 this light on the ceiling and I just couldn't sleep. So I went and I took a walk off the 36:11 counter and I put something over it. And I lay down 11. >> That's why was there. 36:19 That's why was one was one of how I watched it. got. And that's one. Yes. 36:23 >> And then the next is will be avoidance of risky substances. And, you know, the 36:28 focus really used to be on just time, tobacco use and alcohol. Yeah, but it really 36:33 is far broader than that. It is the avoidance of risky substances are so detrimental 36:40 to our health goes without saying and it is a problem. And then lastly, as we were 36:43 just talking about the power of social connections and and COVID been so detrimental to 36:54 this because it's caused such isolation of all. It has certainly our elderly, but 36:59 also our young people as well. just cannot be underestimated. I mean, we are designed to be 37:09 relationship creatures were designed for relationship. And that is an important part of 37:15 our health and whether it's and in our marriage relationships are with our 37:21 friends or other family members or co-workers to really focus on that and the 37:25 importance of that and how that really gives us purpose, too. 37:29 >> Doing COVID. A lot of people went on when into depression. 37:33 >> Yeah. And old. Yes. Very Yeah. Okay. We have a couple of questions. This let's start 37:38 with them. Can I lose weight and keep it off. Bianna from Virginia. What can I do to 37:47 lose and to keep it ISIS's of Virginia, you want to lose weight? Yes. Keep it off. Then 37:54 eat more. >> Morrow ER war. >> You know, I'm talking. I 38:04 remember on this one last time. But just now explain it. Yeah. 38:07 >> It more that right. cut back on the refined foods because as Susan mentioned, 38:14 they are good. Keller, likely very dense that packed with calories, but they're very low 38:22 in nutritional value. So when you cut back on those you can eat more of these foods as the 38:29 more of these foods, you'll have less room on your plate for all the other foods that 38:34 are not in your best interest. So eat more food. Because low calorie foods say the lots of 38:41 fiber. So the fill you up. Yes. And when you are stumping begins to fill up. It sends a 38:47 special message to your brain. So the APIs that. That regulates the appetite and it 38:52 says hello. Shut down. The appetite goes down and you feel for it because you have 39:01 all this favor in your system. It stays there for a while and you're just very happy for the 39:05 next 3, 4, 5, hours also sustains the fullness rather than feeling hungry. Much 39:12 quicker because you just ate junk. Yeah. About beings that make you feel full, too. 39:17 Doesn't it? Well, all of these foods are high in fiber. They give you a sense of fullness. 39:23 True. And this send you a message enough is enough. Okay. And the clerk density is 39:31 such an important point. There is. I wish we had the info graphic to show, but 39:36 >> if anyone Google's caloric density and clerk density in forks over knives, in great 39:42 visual that shows stomachs and what 500 calories of each 500 calories of oil. There's this 39:52 much of the stomach. That's Phil, as opposed to calories of plant based foods. The 39:57 entire stomach is full. So we talk about say shun and this is so true hunts, but you just 40:02 shared so it it set to focus on eating those foods that grow from the ground in this 40:08 most to nature's package possible. Here's another question. I have a Suffolk 40:12 jail cancer. >> I know a good plan. Food diet can some I can sit down. 40:18 What kind of fruits and vegetables are best for reversing a sop to jail 40:22 cancer. Well, you know, this is a specialty for this is a special question for a 40:30 specialist in terms of its off the disease foot pipe disease. When take the foot pipe year 40:39 after year after year, decade after decade, oftentimes. >> But things like caffeine Ys 40:44 or some of the kind hi the spicy foods. There is a area where the foot pipe joins the 40:52 stomach. And is that place where the irritation is doing the most harm? It could turn 40:58 into a growth could turn into a cancer and what that person then needs to do is see called 41:06 a physician. That would take a look at this and probably remove the cancer as best as 41:12 they can. So to reversing a sofa, geo cancer in my thinking, it's probably not a 41:17 very realistic idea, but I think that person is was that can do the work to remove this 41:25 growth, OK, OK, OK? >> Here's another one his says some I've been following the 41:32 teaching on taking up of good salt, such as Celtic soaked when drinking water. This 41:41 teaching is based on the book title. Your body's many cries for water written by docked to 41:48 that Yes, very good. Yeah. >> Yeah. It's a it's an Indian gentleman. Yes. Did a great 41:55 job. All want to know. What do you think of his team? Price for water? 41:59 >> And you mentioned that earlier, Susan, and that we are told a dehydrated. Yes, 42:03 and even my wife is getting after me has a wife that is pushing water and you my wife 42:09 says to me many times that did you get because the water How many? Yeah, that's it. I think 42:20 the idea using a specialized kind saw it. Yeah, as this person. Yeah. So as a Celtic 42:27 saw Celtic, I'm not so sure that I have a good answer for There are all kinds of 42:34 different kinds of saw its soap or talk about Himalayan salt. black all these kind of 42:39 things that it's true. Some of these kind of less refined saw it have a little bit more 42:46 nutritional value, but it's so small that we have to focus on the fact that saw it. His saw 42:53 it and it's a sodium in the so that is causing the problem. So I I think we probably need 42:57 to see that in the proper context. Cut bank on anything that has sodium OK, but that 43:05 he his work is outstanding. It He's no longer with us. >> He was known as Doctor 43:11 Batman for short his last name was yes, a cult to pronounce yet. But some of the books 43:16 that he's written like your body's cry for water and are really excellent. and he is 43:21 one who did shine such a bright light on the necessity of consuming just pure water 43:29 and how so many of the other beverages or D hydrating. So most of the advice in those 43:34 books is excellent advice. >> Well, OK, is there a way to get rid of gallstones without 43:44 surgery? >> I talked to told me the gallstones need to be removed 43:48 and Probably 90% of the gall stones actually call less truck Jones. the the most of 44:02 the that we have in our system and the liver response to saturated and the worst of all 44:10 kinds of fats in terms of saturation on the coconut fats, you know, anytime that 44:14 you have a sonnet fat. Yeah, you know, they talk about. Coconut coconut fat. When you 44:25 open that it saw that show we have a substance, a solid fat. It's usually a matter having 44:30 it as a saturated fat and saturated fats in contest to the other fats, causing the 44:36 liver to makes excessive amounts off cholesterol. And that cholesterol that is 44:42 directly call it connect that to the gallstones because on large made about cholesterol. 44:49 So I'm sorry to perhaps not have the same viewpoint as this physician. dealt our 44:55 ways. I've seen many patients that came in with gallstones X-rayed document. It. And 45:01 after 6 months ago says that they're gone. So we believe gallstones are directly an 45:12 outgrowth of excessive cholesterol being produced by the body and in the 45:17 bloodstream. Okay. All OK, let's do one more. Can a plant. Based diet help someone 45:23 with the audit disease like Lupus. The vet in Jamaica. Okay. that a very complex 45:35 question. Yeah, Lupus is sort of a term that is being used for all kinds of diseases that 45:41 are coming together the outlook is not very positive. Not very favorable. And I 45:49 think we need to have more research before we can really make in statements to what 45:56 extent Lupus could be affected by diet once it's in in has been diagnosed and given 46:03 ideas. Well, doctor, Brooke Goldner >> is a leading position in 46:09 the field of lifestyle medicine and she was diagnosed with and speaks very, you 46:16 know, broadly about the fact that she was able to halt the progression and reverse the 46:20 symptoms of that is simply with what we have discussed here this evening. So I would 46:29 really encourage this person to Google Doctor, Brooke, colder and see. But but in 46:34 general, yes, you know, we've talked this evening about lifestyle related chronic 46:41 disease. Those chronic diseases that by and large are so driven, whether it's heart 46:46 disease or hypertension, high type 2 diabetes by our lifestyle choices, day in and 46:53 day out. and then we're auto. Immune is concerned. Yes, I mean, there is some 46:58 correlation not as directly, but evidence shows especially when it comes to rheumatoid 47:04 arthritis. And doctor Monica Agger wall out state of Florida. She has an amazing 47:10 book where she was able to reverse her rheumatoid arthritis. She's a 47:16 cardiologist and we've just see, you know, incredible case studies of that as well as a 47:23 multiple sclerosis. So So, yes, it's sad. The power of our, you know, again, what we 47:30 eat, how we can affect not only impact our chronic disease, but also select out. 47:36 I mean, conditions as well. A lot of a lot of them. But no, I just want to Susan. 47:43 >> So is rate on target with the lupus on I remember this physician. I listen to her and 47:50 she told a story very enthusiastic. She has a large clientele. So can you spell 47:56 out name so that we all can pursue it? Okay. I believe it's be are OK, E B are only a 48:04 brook and I think it's Geo Al D and E R Brooke Kausner. But Eagles are OK, too. This is a 48:11 fibroid question. Because I had that same thing. Hello. >> Who can I contact to say I 48:23 want good health care from medical talk to us. >> I had Hashi multiple. High 48:30 poll, thyroid disease and the medical doctors only wanted to treat each symptom. I went 48:38 through 7 doctors and one endocrinologists. I went to see a pharmacist said a local 48:46 compound in pharmacy who helped me get off all thyroid medications or now? Well, I 48:51 you know, I think registers right registry. Yeah. For positions that are oriented. 49:01 Yeah, talked to Barnard so but but lifestyle medicine dot or the American College Lifestyle 49:07 Medicine, a life. So anyone that goes to lifestyle medicine dot org came under 49:13 the membership tab. And you can find a directory of lifestyle, medicine, 49:18 physicians and medical professionals. And so that >> the place to look because 49:25 most it's changing. The winds of change are blowing, as were say. but it's lifestyle 49:30 medicine physicians who are truly on the forefront. They're really the visionary 49:36 leaders of the transformation that we're currently in the midst of. And they have become 49:40 trained in the field. And so patients need to seek them out and outside of the United 49:47 States lifestyle, global dot org. That is the Web site of the lifestyle Medicine, Global 49:55 Alliance. And they're nearly 2 dozen lifestyle medicine, medical professional 50:00 associations on every continent around the world. And so lifetime of sun global 50:05 is where viewers can go to see if there's a lifestyle medicine, medical professional 50:12 association in their country and then hopefully can search through those directories to 50:15 find medical professionals. >> Yeah, I just went to that website that he did very, very 50:21 informative. Well put an ACL and a dot org. Yes. Now the graphics that you showed 50:30 tonight. Where can our view was an audience code to download? 50:36 >> Well, I think through I'm not sure if they're available on our website. They certainly 50:42 can be available through yours. We do have patient facing materials. Many of our 50:48 materials are available only to our members that they then make available to their 50:53 patients. >> But certainly they will be available through 3ABN, a D a 50:59 contact 3ABN to find about the digital downloads because I'm an definitely going to do 51:04 that, too. hosting myself, I saw those digital downloads. >> And the information was 51:08 very, very valuable. How can I start implementing that? And I'm very functional that 51:16 there's a question that just came to And this comes up quite often. You have a person 51:22 it becomes enthusiastic about left and medicine a person. And then the talk about the 51:27 grandfather grandfather's 81 years of age. And he has this said this to hope motivate 51:31 him. Yeah. And you know, my council has always been. But this grandfather needs more 51:39 than anything else right now is your loving understanding? >> Your loving support not to 51:46 change his lifestyle at this point. It is. But to let this person know that. He is very 51:52 special to you. Begin remember the good times that you have how that's what this grandpa 52:00 needs to know. Not going to change. Your is no more of this. I don't This is the time 52:10 off together in this. And if that person wants to make some lifestyle changes, of course, 52:14 the happy to get some suggestions. But that's not be to force for. And in the 52:20 process, Frank, to our relationship, especially when you have this age 52:22 differential, there is anything that you might want to add to this. 52:26 >> Well, I would add that it's never too late to start. And we stood the sea all the time. 52:33 People in their 80's who may not have ever been exposed to this kind of information and 52:39 they may get a copy of you turn or they may get a copy of Mayor Eric Adams book Healthy 52:45 at last, which is a powerful book. They may watch the documentary Forks over knives. 52:52 So there are more and more documentaries that are coming out. Incredible books. so I 52:58 think that that's a powerful message. I love what you said because you cannot fracture 53:04 those relationships but planting those seeds of change can also be incredibly 53:09 powerful. And it's just never too late for people to start eating healthfully and moving 53:16 and working on the other pillars of lifestyle medicine, very good. 53:21 >> Now we have about 4 minutes isn't. Let's recap. I want to stop and talk to deal about 53:26 the chronic. Situations that are facing not only Americans but people around the world. 53:31 What are some of the things that we could begin to do now? >> Yeah, I remember being in 53:36 Saudi Arabia and >> I see a long queue of black ladies, long line and wouldn't 53:47 you know they're all standing in front of when ever you have an American diet, which is 53:52 highly refined, which is usually low in nutrition and high in calories. We always 53:57 have to be concerned that you introducing what be used to called Western Diseases, 54:02 American diseases. And so I think it's important for us to recognize that we need to 54:06 begin to change that trend. We need to follow our hero. What he has done. Yes. In New York 54:13 City boy that. But but this successful experience getting out of voiding of avoiding a 54:22 lion. This incident. We need to begin do our part in the meeting, an example, you know, 54:31 on person, lifestyle because nothing is more important and nothing speaks more par 4. 54:36 Then what you do and that EU model for people. That's right. Not worth of telling 54:41 people what to do because after all, you have no friends left. Haha. 54:48 >> Negga, so good to have And think you give our audience some parting words that just 54:51 that actually can get their motors going and you've shared so much. But yeah, it was like 54:57 to summarize your evening as >> well. That tattoo really just reinforce that we. By 55:06 just the simple, elegant solutions that God has given us right to the power of what 55:13 we eat. Whole Foods plant based foods being optimal for health, how we move, how we 55:17 sleep, how we manage our stress, avoiding risky substances, the power of 55:23 positive social connection. Yeah, it's these things that enable us to take far greater 55:27 control of our health, Destiny's Child. and that's just something that should be 55:32 very encouraging and inspiring and that we can just start tomorrow. You make tomorrow, 55:40 you know, cat the first day of the rest of our lives. and it really is an inspiring 55:45 message, lifestyle, medicine. It's the message of >> health, hope and healing 55:49 that this nation and the entire world need today more than ever before. 55:54 >> Well, you just said something that I'm very known for.
