00:15 Hello, I'm Sheli Quinn. >> JD Quinn and we want to welcome you to the second hour
00:22 of 3, A B in today. >> If you're just tuning in, our special guest tonight is
00:29 Doctor James Markham. He is a cardiologist. The speaker director for Hart Wise
00:36 Ministry. He has a program that's been airing on 3, and for 15 years nearly it's
00:42 called typical prescriptions and he's an author. He's Hayes. Just a wonderful a man
00:50 who is love with the Lord has a beautiful family menace it. Your family's beautiful, but
00:58 just got such a heart for people in ministry. Once again, we just want to thank
01:02 you for being here tonight. >> Well, I don't know if you remember about 15 years ago we
01:09 did this show called wonderfully made. Yes, I do. Remember, that was exciting.
01:16 That he just the other day. We made those won by a program same where years go by. I'll
01:21 tell you. and this is the first time my wife Sonya, my lovely wife, Sonya is up here
01:27 actually with me. I And so I'm excited about We're going to start doing more things
01:32 together now that we have a little more time. So that makes me excited. But I told I
01:37 wanted to ask a question to you before we get to all these questions. Okay. I hear you've
01:41 been diligently writing a book. I want you to tell me a little bit about that quickly
01:47 because I want to read it. Okay. >> I took 2 months off from
01:51 work actually 10 weeks. I wrote a book called Spotless. The Everlasting Covenant. It
01:57 will be coming out probably in January. I we're going to be launching is series about
02:03 this. >> It is all about it's the story of chases.
02:06 >> And, you know, something that's interesting. Jesus told the Jews and John 5.46, if you
02:14 don't believe most, writings, you won't believe me. >> And that, wow. And you
02:20 know, after his resurrection, he took them through that. So this is going from Genesis
02:26 Sport caught just. Opened up that the whole idea of the pathway from righteousness by
02:36 faith that he opened as soon as there was sand. And then bills. It's a beautiful book.
02:44 It's all about righteousness by faith. And so I'm excited that.
02:47 >> sounds like they're going to be tons of biblical prescription. news and bring
02:52 them closer to the big picture. A man. This is a big picture for yeah. Now, let me
02:58 say one thing quick because we're getting ready to delve into some of your questions.
03:01 >> But if you're just joining us, maybe don't realize this whole hour. We're taking your
03:07 medical questions. We have a cardiologist here. He pretty knowledgeable, most areas of
03:11 medicine, but we're going. see we have a lot hard questions. And if you have a particular
03:21 speed group, sure that uses a biblical prescription, Texas, then as well. So the number is
03:27 to text 6, 1, 8, 228-3975, at 6, 1, 8, 2, 2, 8, 3, 9, 7, 5, And the e-mail. If you want to
03:41 e-mail, it's live Alive III at 3ABN, >> DOT TV. So
03:47 >> let's jump into some of these pit questions. How you want to ask a couple?
03:50 >> Yes. And then that's a here. >> I have heart palpitations
03:58 and I eat healthy. I don't drink caffeine. >> I've had an EKG and they
04:03 didn't find anything abnormal after wearing a heart monitor for 24 hours, about 30 years
04:09 old. And I'm wondering what I can do to help not get these heart palpitations, OK?
04:15 >> So if this person came to the office to see me with this complaint, what I would do is
04:22 first I'd make sure they had a strong heart. Okay. There's lots of ways we can do that.
04:29 They wore monitor, but I want them to where we have monitors now that people can wear wear
04:33 fur long periods of time. I put one of those monitors on and I say, listen right down
04:39 when you're having these palpitations, what you're having. And then we would know
04:44 exactly whether this was a normal heartbeat, which sometimes it can be. You can
04:49 feel a normal heartbeat in certain situations. Stress-induced. I would also
04:54 want to know whether it was a skipped beat. We have one is called premature a troll from
04:58 the top part of the heart or premature ventricle from the bottom of the heart. The most
05:04 common rhythm that sometimes just last for seconds. A time when it first starts is one
05:08 called atrial fibrillation they might be having that. So I want to put a long-term
05:13 monitor and make sure the heart strong when the heart is strong. That makes
05:19 cardiologists feel much better because we know that even if you're having that, it's
05:23 probably not as dangerous to you. Then once I knew exactly what it was, I would work on
05:29 the big picture items. Make sure you have peace in Christ. Make sure we had some
05:34 lifestyle things that would help studies have shown that plant based diets are really
05:39 good because you get substances like magnesium, potassium and those diets,
05:45 things that would reduce stress is always going to help whether it be deep breathing
05:49 or daily walks less mental stress, looking for other things that might trigger the
05:54 heart to go awry. Some of the things I see frequently as people in just things that
06:00 stimulate the body. She mentioned caffeine. But there's other things like
06:04 weight loss medications, sleep medications over the counter, decongestants that can disrupt
06:10 the system as well. So this is looking at many different things. One step at a time,
06:16 pop it Haitians are dangerous when usually with the heart is weak or if you're passing out,
06:22 those would raise red flags that you need to get to the bottom of this right away. So
06:26 again, let's start with the monitor. See exactly what it is. And if it's if it's a
06:33 normal heartbeat, then we can work on lifestyle changes with that, be deep breathing
06:38 walking more. But we're sure that it's not dangerous and sometimes knowing that it's
06:42 not dangerous is the first step. Now sometimes in my experience, I've I've had
06:49 people that feel this palpitations and it's a normal heartbeat. When you make
06:54 adrenaline pop, I scare someone like that. I didn't scare you guys, but they can
06:58 feel the heart beating faster. Some of you out. There are minor scared, but that
07:03 adrenaline. So some people, especially people that I think have post traumatic stress. I
07:07 will put them on Medicines Beta blockers that can block some of that adrenaline on the
07:13 heart, especially if lifestyle changes and the biblical prescriptions are not working
07:19 because sometimes we've had jeans that just need to be changed. Beta blockers really
07:24 do well because they help get in the brain and turn off some of the stress that the brain
07:29 is generating, that people can't do it or sometimes we use beta blockers as a bridge
07:33 to to the making lifestyle changes, OK? So wasn't that a long answer that we know that
07:41 answer was so long. I think I knew music break >> has to take a music break
07:47 real quick because everybody loves Tim and ginger pictures. >> And they're going to be
07:51 singing her hit. She's going to be saying his name is wonderful and temps are going
07:55 to be pent playing the piano.
08:16 >> doing >> wonderful. >> It is. thing is
08:40 >> the >> guy is it >> I asked bit breezy.
08:54 >> a. >> he >> is the
09:11 >> Rahm? >> is >> cool.
09:21 ♪ ♪ >> This
09:47 >> ma >> The >> should
09:59 >> The >> Of by the abs >> oh,
10:27 ♪ >> Oh, yes. >> He is
10:50 ♪ ♪ >> Thank you, Tim. Thank you,
11:01 Ginger, have what tell us. A man. Well, we are with Doctor James Marcum. Gyms are good
11:09 friends. Some call them Yeah, but we have a lot of questions here. Seems on a I also suffer
11:13 from a >> Let's talk about this half. This is a question from
11:19 Pamela. And she says. I was diagnosed with a feb. What can I do to improve my health? I
11:27 am also diabetic. Okay. And then she adds she's got. Fatty liver, OK?
11:37 >> So there's a lot to unpack there. So, Pamela. I'm sorry, you have all these We talked
11:46 about the most important things is a biblical prescriptions. I'm so so don't
11:50 forget that part of your health. It's according that whether the fibrillation is
11:55 something that's coming in going or there all time. So we the HR for relations with the
12:03 top heart is beating faster than the bottom part. It's the most common rhythm problem in
12:07 America. One of the real dangers of a tool for the Les Tions. If it goes undetected
12:13 and he's not. Some people can develop blood clots and increases the risk of stroke.
12:21 So almost everyone with a tool for relation is we talked to them about blood thinners to
12:27 lower that risk. The second danger of a Fed is that if the heart's week if the heart's
12:33 weekend it's not synchronous, there's a higher chance of developing heart failure
12:40 having you with so well, they do an echocardiogram, OK, sound way tested your heart.
12:45 But older cardiologists have been doing it for 30 years. Sometimes we can look at the
12:49 EKG. Look at the X-ray to see if the hearts enlarged. Listen to it to see if there's any
12:55 murmurs. And we can tell just by examining and those simple test. But now days we pretty
13:00 much do an echocardiogram. But there's other ways to MRIs. See, there's other ways to do
13:03 it as well. So once we have those things then some people get a tool for violations. The
13:10 most common rhythm problem in America. So lots of people have that some people have it
13:17 just because of genetic problems. Some people have it because the high blood
13:20 pressure, sleep apnea, there's different thyroid issues. So there's many different causes.
13:26 So your doctor will want to get the cause. And that's the key. Pam is to understand
13:32 what's the cause? So ask your doctor, what do you think's causing FIP if it sleep at new
13:35 work on that, if it's high blood pressure work on that. If it's maybe not getting in
13:42 nutrition or stimulants are not enough sleep work on that. But sometimes you can work on
13:47 everything. And boy, I just had bad genes. Well, then that's the time to explore.
13:54 What's medicines might be good, which ones might be bad. And now days over the last 30
14:00 years that I've been in practice is more more people are getting this procedure,
14:02 which we call an oblation. Oh, it sounds scary, but we're medical technology has
14:08 improved to the place where we go up persons asleep. They don't know what's happening.
14:15 I'm sure they're asleep and we go in. We map electrically engineering. Think we find out
14:19 what that circuits coming from. And if that's circuits coming from the pot, we can
14:24 easily destroyed that with a little sound wave. Energy. Now, some people, you know,
14:30 they have had it done, you know, by inexperienced people and they get a lot of scarring
14:34 from the the ablation catheter. Then we lose some options. So other options we
14:41 have the size of glacier our we have certain medications that might put it rhythm. Of
14:45 course, we can shock it, but that just keeps it in rhythm, temporarily. And then we have
14:49 different medications that we can use to try to keep it in rhythm. But some people don't
14:53 even know they have it. And those people at the heart strong. We just slow the heart
15:00 down. Talk to him about the risks and benefits of blood thinners. Now, Pam, so
15:04 improving your health. Find out the reason why. And that's the key diabetes. Well, that's
15:08 according to what you have type one type 2 or type one and a half type one is we're
15:15 not making insulin where you're going to need insulin for that type one and a half
15:19 where your body might not make enough insulin, but it's still making some and then type to
15:23 you. Making plenty of insulin. But the the shirt, the blood sugars. Not getting into the
15:29 cell. That's a receptor problem. And when that happens, you want to lose
15:35 weight, you know, because fat is our enemy and diabetes, lose weight, try to go to a
15:40 plant based diet, eat more plants, less fatty foods and get on a movement program or
15:46 exercise. It's hard to do that. But once you start taking those steps that will
15:51 help with diabetes. And also remember, if you eat more than 10 to 15% of your body tennis,
15:56 your calories and fat it Stuart, you know, we weren't made to store fat and if it's
16:03 stored, it stored based on your genetics. Some people stored in the arteries and we
16:06 have heart disease. Some people start in their liver. Some people start in their
16:12 belly, but fat is not good. So limit the fat you eat. limit the fat you can try to burn
16:19 off years ago, guys. We used to walk in burn off a lot of fat nowadays. We don't do
16:25 that. And unfortunately, that really taste pretty good. You must admit. But you have to
16:30 retrain your taste buds to get back to these healthier diets, especially one focus lots on
16:36 plants and started exercise program, Pam. And that will be a good, good place to start.
16:41 Now, Shelley JD, I know I'm not going to get to all the questions, but if you might
16:44 have a burning question, I have my you can write me a that takes me a lot longer
16:49 because I'm a poor rider. Now days. But also I e-mail and I can try to get back to my
16:56 personal emails. Heart Wise J M at Yahoo Dot Com. But I can keep some short. I remember I
17:03 can't give specific medical advice because I'm not in or, you know, a healing
17:09 relationship legally, but I can give general principles like we're doing tonight. That
17:12 might help you guide you and know what questions to answer. Ask your doctor. And I can
17:19 also make sure that you're having biblical prescriptions and make sure we can pray for
17:24 each other. And that's what I want to do today is everyone that comes in is watching. We
17:28 want to at the end of our program, pray for healing and pray for that. Everyone will
17:31 see the big picture and then and then. >> I just have to ask a quick
17:37 question a while I was writing those 10 weeks. Have sufficient water intake at the
17:45 stressor this is the second time in my life. I think that I've got pretty dehydrated.
17:53 And then I really had bad a tip. So talk about the connection with. Water and
18:01 canned heart. And what else like Colin? what? >> What can trigger the steak
18:09 tray gers want any type of stress on the body, whether it's pain, dehydration, mental
18:16 stress not getting enough oxygen sleeping at night having pain having infections,
18:20 any type of stress turns on the same chemicals, adrenaline and cortisol. And when
18:26 adrenaline kicks in, guess Watt? It wakes up a for the sitting in there and he's nice
18:33 and asleep. Oh, I'm doing good. I'm not going to worry about things. And then all of
18:36 a sudden he gets all the stress from sometimes more than one source. And he on a
18:41 wake up on the start taking over not to start doing bad things. So any type of stress
18:47 on the body, whether it be dehydration, not enough. Rest, not having balance. It can
18:53 trigger too much adrenaline adrenaline can turn on a tool for election. Now some people
18:58 are not under stress and still just get it as well. So it can come from many different ways.
19:01 But the less stress we're under the less chance of us having problems with a feb.
19:07 And of course, the less stress when we go out of rhythm, some people don't even feel it. If
19:10 it doesn't go fast, but adrenaline makes the heart grow fast. So if you out of a
19:17 fit for some other reason, whether it's a genetic pathway or whatever, if you have a lot
19:22 of adrenaline, your body, then you're a rate, goes real fast. White people. When you go into
19:27 a start taking some deep breaths. Try to relax. You might have a medicine your
19:34 doctors giving him to slow down. Sometimes you can break it with a cough or rubbing
19:38 your neck. And if if it's if it's a new thing and you're not taking a blood thinner,
19:42 your doctor might want to know about that. Pretty quick one thing I know. I don't want to
19:47 go out with the strokes. I You know what? Chilly? We've gotten much better since I've
19:53 started practice over the 30 years years ago, we only had 1, one you really do work
19:58 with. And that was coming in another name for that, Janet, what over the last few years
20:02 we've got ones that are easier to take ones like yellow Ques. We have one called the Rialto.
20:08 We have one culprit, AXA, but we've got a newer tool set to use as technology is improved.
20:14 So I know it's hard when you hear your doctors and when you hear about all these
20:20 pharmaceutical ads to sort through this because, you know, everyone knows that the
20:26 pharmaceutical industry has secondary causes to make those. But there are some
20:29 medicines that are bare, very useful and the benefits of taking these medicines are
20:33 worth the risk. And that's why you have to check with your doctor. Find a doctor that has
20:39 a belief system similar to you, yours and try to find that person. Pray about it and
20:44 know how to implement that into your overall health strategy.
20:49 >> yeah. Why we're turning this a perhaps with this one. >> Is there any chance of
20:53 recovery from a field that this is from brought in bed? >> Well, there is always a
20:58 chance for recovery, OK, always, I never say never. It's just where when and how.
21:05 So we know in heaven. I don't think there's going to be a OK? So that's a Some people if
21:14 they have a discreet cause of a tool for delay shun, they never see it again. Okay. But
21:20 most people that I've taken care of over 30 years. It shows up again and most people
21:27 as they get older, it shows up more often. But I don't want to get people discouraged
21:33 because there's lots of things we can do to manage this. Just like as I've gotten older, I
21:38 have more pains. I don't like those pains and I wish they would go away. But they keep
21:44 showing up. So I'm going to have to live with this until I get a new body. Sometimes we
21:50 have to live with this. But there is a chance it could not come back. But there's also
21:55 probably a greater chance that it's going to show up again. But it's not something we have
21:58 to have forever. Just like we don't cancer forever. We don't have that of heart disease or
22:04 diabetes. We don't have to have these things forever because we know that we have
22:10 the big picture them when we have crisis in our hearts, he's promised us when we're
22:14 with him. He's given us eternal life. And that's that's that that will make us
22:21 feel good. >> Now should question because this is interesting. This
22:23 still fun along the line. Yeah, but it says can stress and anxiety caused the heart
22:31 to take an indication extra be yes. What cause the heart to race? What causes the ankles
22:39 to sweat out sometime? Well, first, any type of stress can cause the heart to take extra
22:42 beats because we talked about adrenaline. >> Can be a PVC or P a C 2.
22:48 That's part. One of the question was part to that. >> Question. Part 2 is what
22:51 causes the ankles to swell. >> Many things can cause the ankles to swell. It's
22:58 particularly concerning if its swelling and you can't lay down. And really well because
23:04 that could be heart failure. That's one of the reasons that's a concerning. So but
23:09 other things can just having bad can cause your legs to swell. And that's called Venus
23:15 Insufficiency in a stand up all day. You don't move enough, your legs. Well,
23:19 compression stockings can help with that. A bad kidney. You can't get rid of all the fluid
23:24 in the body that can make the legs to swell a bad liver can make the heart to swell
23:30 because there's protein changes when you have enough protein in the body. We can
23:33 have swelling as well. So there's many different things that can cause the swelling to
23:37 happen. What's the next part of that question? >> I that was all of that
23:41 question. But here's follow-up. 2 very similar. Well, 2 real quick. This one
23:47 is if you're this is from Bobby in Carbondale. Hi, Bobbie. pressure is good. But
23:56 Pulse is very high. What does that have to do with the heart? OK?
24:04 >> So all of these things that we talk about, blood pressure, heart rate. The they those are
24:11 clues and we have to take everything in context. Okay. The fact that the blood
24:16 pressure good is encouraging. But the high heart rate might the heart might be going fast
24:22 to keep the blood pressure up. For instance, if a person losing blood, anemic. Okay,
24:30 the heart's going go faster to keep the blood pressure up to previews the ordinance.
24:33 >> Follow me. There had been a if a person has infection in the body. Well, infection
24:40 itself. Can make the blood pressure go lower. Well, the heart's going to speed up to
24:44 keep the blood pressure up to perfused the organs. We need blood pressure did to get
24:48 oxygen to our cells and to remove waste. So the heart speeds up sometimes to keep
24:54 the blood pressure up. So we want to know if why the heart is going hard. What's the
25:01 reason is there an underlying medical condition is there something I injure can problem
25:05 like thyroid disease is there are other problems with the adrenal glands that might be
25:11 making the heart go fast. So all of those things are things that your doctor wide explore
25:16 and you can explore those with a good history, physical, maybe some simple blood work,
25:22 maybe checking your thyroid, making sure you're not in the checking your electrolytes. So
25:27 those are things or it might be that it's running high because life makes you run
25:31 hard and that but that it is worth something to look into. That's a great question. But
25:36 it's based on the context of your overall health and we can't really answer that so
25:42 quickly without having more information. Remember, it takes good data and good
25:48 information to make good decisions and health care. So the more information your
25:53 provider has the better he could make good decisions to help you.
25:59 >> There go the testing. I mean that some time all they just run all these tests. But
26:02 those sometimes you really need it. Yeah, this is kind of along the same this is from or
26:09 lean in. She says, is it normal to have irregular heartbeats after menopause?
26:22 >> irregular heartbeats or lean are never quite normal. It's just what's causing the
26:27 irregular heartbeats. After menopause. And in men, you know, menopause, the hormones
26:36 change, testosterone changes and then estrogen levels change and women. Sometimes
26:42 the stress of that transition. We've talked about adrenaline can cause the heart to skip
26:46 and do funny things. But sometimes it can be due to other things as well that we
26:53 talked about, you know, the different things that can cause the heart to pout that.
26:57 Hey, you know, we talked a little bit about pain and stress and dehydration, not
27:00 sleeping. So you probably need to see your doctor. Have them do a good history and
27:05 physical. But there's a chance if you're not passing out, if you're breathing, good in all
27:09 your blood work looks good. That is something that will pass a lot of things if it's
27:15 not other serious medical problems that will help with palpitations is reassurance
27:19 letting someone know that it's not something dangerous. walking programs and deep
27:27 breathing program. Sometimes help making sure you have good nutrition will help. But the
27:29 most important thing as we stress the whole way is is turning to biblical
27:36 prescription. And I want to share Matthew 6.33. Right now. So when you have a problem,
27:41 see key first first, God and his righteousness all these things, including health at
27:48 some point will be added to you. now. Hello question for Doctor Markham. Is it OK?
27:56 >> To take a baby aspirin every day to prevent strokes in strokes, run in the family.
28:01 I've been doing this for years. I recently asked my cardiologist and an
28:06 appointment and he said sure. >> I would agree with that. As long as you don't have a
28:15 reason not to take a baby aspirin. What would be a reason not to take a baby
28:19 aspirin if you're bleeding from the bowels. Sometimes if you're bleeding inside your
28:25 head, we say no. But for most people, they can take a baby aspirin every day. It helps
28:31 lower the risk of stroke and heart disease in that risk of group and the risks outweigh
28:35 the benefits. And that's one thing we need to talk about risk and benefits. Everything
28:41 has risk in life. Everything have benefits and you have to sort of balance that based on
28:45 your individual bully systems. I still find that that's a shortcoming in some positions,
28:53 especially the younger ones. They have this template. They have to go to work. you have
28:57 to do this. This and this and this. There's not enough flexibility. But everyone has
29:01 Billy systems. And when you go against your belief systems, when you go again, sure
29:07 conscious. It creates a phenomena called moral injury and that moral injury damages
29:14 you to a place where it might that moral injury might be worse. The benefit you get
29:18 from a treatment. So that's something this pump people have to keep in mind,
29:23 depending on the individual's situation. The moral injury in your belief system is
29:27 important. Why it's so an interesting how the brain is so connected with our health.
29:36 >> This is from Joe. See. She said came across program at heart Wise Ministries where
29:39 Doctor Markham topped about the health benefits of nuts. My question is, do not have to
29:47 be soaked before eating them to remove its and Ty nutrient properties that's a great And
29:58 I would focus Josie on the big picture. >> You know, God gave us
30:03 fruits, vegetables, nuts and grains in the garden. I don't know if they were originally
30:08 made to be soaked. But if you want to that's great. If you want to eat them and soaked,
30:12 you still get benefits. The bottom line is nuts are good. Even whether the soap or
30:18 whether they're all but just try not to put too much salt with them. Yeah. And and.
30:25 >> when I found out the benefit of nets, I was over. got on Have have too much of
30:32 any good boy really like almonds almond. So my favorite knots, you know I really like
30:37 to put almonds with different things, but I try not to overeat those 2.
30:42 >> have question. Yes. you have pretty doubts. Okay. I would like to ask Doctor
30:47 Markham about Metro prolonged, but Oprah law and the other heart medicine and pull up
30:52 thing low to pay. Do they cause hair loss and memory loss? Any medicine can
31:03 potentially cause a side effect like that, OK? I seen that hope the law cause memory
31:08 loss. Very rare. Okay. It would probably be much more common for something else to
31:16 cause the memory loss. If you're concerned about it. Talk to your physician may be
31:25 he could give you a trial off medicines. Are you something else if the risk benefit was
31:30 acceptable? But remember, we used that Oprah law to control adrenaline and the heart rate
31:35 fast and blood pressure. So and we use a blow to PM to help control blood pressure
31:43 and sometimes it scoring, whether it's a little memory or a lot of memory, the doctor
31:46 might not want to do that. So each individual is you have to take it in the context. But it
31:55 is possible to have the side effects, though. These are very rare and I've not seen
32:00 him that much in 30 years, but it's much more common for something else to be causing
32:05 it. The number one cause of daytime fatigue and forgetful. And this is just not getting
32:10 enough sleep and water. And those are some biblical purse prescriptions. Rest drinking
32:17 water that are out there. You might want to do some of those things. First, then talk to
32:21 your doctor about your concerns. And then they can discussed with you about the
32:26 risk of benefits of continuing or giving the trial off the Mets now sometimes show we all
32:30 take a person off of medicine and if nothing gets better, all say it definitely was not
32:35 the medicine and I'll put it back on it. Yeah. >> But now speaking of Frist,
32:40 would you speak just a moment to sleep apnea and how seriously May I'm glad you
32:45 brought that up. Sleep apnea is one of the hidden stressors that most people don't even
32:51 realize. They have think about it. If you're sleeping at night and you read like this.
32:59 You don't get enough oxygen. If you don't get enough oxygen yourselves can't rest if your
33:06 cells can't rest your adrenaline and cortisol level goes up, it increases your
33:11 chance of having heart disease and without rest, you you age quicker, so sleep apnea can
33:18 trigger all of these bad things to happen, whether it be a chill from elation, high
33:23 blood pressure, cardiovascular people that have sleep apnea, usually meant a poorly. Some
33:29 of them have problems having accidents. They have more inflammation in the body. So
33:34 sleep apnea is one of these core. If you don't get enough rest, if you don't get enough
33:38 water, if you don't get enough oxygen, you just not going to do well and sleep at news at
33:42 the top of the list. Lots of people now if they lose weight, some people can can
33:49 improve it. But we have simple devices now that we can treat it with and that have improved
33:54 a lot over the last 30 years. And I've got a few people that get on these and 6. I never
33:58 knew I could feel so good again and well. My blood pressure went a man died in
34:04 energy. I want to exercise now. But remember, just because you might have it
34:08 don't feel like you're a bad person. You know, sometimes we just have bad genes and things
34:13 happen to us and God can use the R health illnesses. No matter what happens to bring
34:17 us closer to him. You know, Paul wanted to be healed. He said, no, I'm not going to
34:21 kill you. I'm using this so you can bring glory to me. My grace is sufficient also. So
34:27 maybe God using sleep apnea, but maybe is also using physicians to help treat this.
34:31 So you could bring even more glory to God. I don't know, but sleep. That is a big deal.
34:36 Yeah, it is case >> it's in your opinion. What is the best Rima TE for joint
34:45 stiffness and pain, which I think is due to inflammation. Is there best home remedy or
34:52 over-the-counter prescription. >> Okay. They want in my opinion. So the best remedy
34:56 for joints stuff, stiffness, his movement. Okay. Motion is low moving. There you go. So I
35:04 think that that's my opinion. I think that's the best single thing to do when our bones are
35:10 joint start getting old, they can't move. You. If we sit too long, we're going to get
35:14 stiffed and let's face it tonight. When we get out of this chair, all of us are
35:19 going to be staff here. And but if we were moving, we wouldn't get stiff is quick
35:23 soak. So if you don't use it, you lose it. So motion is very important. So that's one
35:27 thing. Some other things I've seen people do that will help with with this problem is make
35:33 sure they're hydrated. Remember, we need hydration for things. If you get
35:35 dehydrated, things get step as well. Physical therapy can sometimes be good cause
35:41 sometimes posture can do it. So if we are the muscles are in good positions. Sometimes
35:46 we don't get as much stiff because we don't put things in positions that make them
35:49 stuff. Heat can help, OK, he can sometimes help. There's some natural things that
35:57 people have tried of that probably are worth trying. If if they do, the other things
36:01 are simple. First, Tamara is one that's out there. That's over the counter. That helps a
36:06 lot of people. But if you're taking, but then yes, you your hair. know, you have to be
36:12 careful with it, OK, you can. But you have to be careful because it could make the
36:15 blood change. So you can take it. But you have to be careful Ginger is another natural
36:21 remedy that can somehow help. And remember, everyone is so different. You know, some
36:25 things will help some people and other things won't help. There's I've seen a few people
36:31 use CBD oil and they put it over a stiff joints and it helps. But he asked me the
36:35 thing that helps the most movement helps the most and stiffness.
36:42 >> And, you know, I heard something that I use quite often and that is that the
36:47 American arthritis Arthritis Association says that before. >> pound you're overweight.
36:55 Oh, yeah. That's for extra pounds on your joints for extra pounds of pressure. So
37:02 if you're just 25 pounds that's 100 extra pounds of pressure on your joints. And I
37:12 think that that's something that. Wait can affect your heart. It can affect your
37:20 joints and everything. Everything champ another. I have one more moment that I
37:24 have here. >> Doctor, Markham about 2 years hurt by growing on the
37:31 right side. Because of a lot of physical labor. But the point where if I'm doing light
37:38 work around the house, it wells up. Get very painful take 2 ibuprofen and have to
37:45 lay down approximately an hour. The swelling goes down and I find can I get this to
37:51 the little known but not doing anything for a while. >> I will see. I would see
37:55 your doctor right away. Good thinking about this. Right side, groin. I'm thinking
38:03 about hernia. Inguinal hernias are very common. They might present like this. Go see your
38:11 doctor. Get some testing done. Evaluate this. Now, if it's something that's been inflamed
38:16 or pulled that some muscle, there's a chance that it could heal. But this has been going
38:22 on for a long time now. The ibuprofen treats the symptom, not the cause. But if you did
38:29 have a inguinal hernia or something to that nature, that's something that we can
38:33 take care of. And, you know, put a mesh an and it's something we see fairly common
38:37 in medical practice. So I was here, doctor, you know. >> OK, I hear as we've gotten
38:48 good prescriptions that were going to get good government it's this question is doesn't
38:53 have a name. If you have prostate cancer with a PSA of 7 no symptoms. But the biopsy
39:03 definitely had cancer. Most of the segments. >> What To Jack radiation
39:09 surgery, OK? >> So, it says they've changed their that pretty much be gun.
39:18 >> We just want to know what you would do, OK? And this is very based again on context,
39:23 OK? Some individuals, older individuals, you treat different than younger
39:31 individuals. Okay. Because sometimes prostate cancer in older individuals are is
39:37 moving so slow that the odds are something else. Well, take us to our rest before that. So
39:46 age plays a factor. I don't know the age. Also spread plays a factor. Another factor
39:55 that comes into play as your individual belief systems. Okay. Every that the
40:03 specialist said does this is called urologist. Okay. I'm a cardiologist. But what I see
40:08 I've seen everything from taking out the prostate to giving a chemical that knocks
40:13 down testosterone called Loop Ron. I've also proton beam radiation. I've seen
40:21 chemotherapy seeds. I've seen everything. So there's a gamut of treatments that each
40:25 individual urologist is comfortable with and using. So I can't really answer your
40:30 question because I don't know your age. I don't really know the but said, of course, we
40:36 know that the nutrition is important plant based diets are something that's very
40:41 important. I don't know the progression if a PSA state at 7.5 for 5 years that might
40:49 make me feel better. That if it's gone up from 2 to 7 happened 6 months. So all of
40:54 those details your urologist might want to help you with. But one of the things I do
40:58 want to leave you with today. Is remember. Modern medicine. It has its place, but try not
41:08 to let your disease defined who you Okay. You're a child of God that God to find who
41:16 you are and not a disease learned learned and pray about it and he's going to take you
41:22 where you need to go. He's going to help you decide the right path in your way. But
41:27 but don't be so. You know, worried about things that it takes away. Your joy. And I
41:34 seen that a lot because, you know, we're going you're going to be healed in time and God's
41:40 going help you find the right positions that will take you. But those are some questions I
41:43 would ask. How fast is the progress and whether it's got outside the prostate in your
41:47 bones and your age and your specific area in certain parts of the country, they have
41:54 technology and some things work better like proton beam. They have that in some places.
41:57 Other places don't have that. Some people are against taking testosterone, suppressing
42:04 their against taking Loop Rock. Some people do not want to have the prostate removed.
42:09 So you Billy system in quality of life is also important in the decision-making process.
42:15 And you call that moral injury if you go against your your conscience and your
42:18 relationship with God that can be damaged. And I saw that a lot during the pandemic. Some
42:25 people did not want to take the vaccine. And yet that they were pressured in that
42:29 pressure than the pressure they took the vaccine against their conscience and now that
42:35 they've had more injury and that's damage their brains, the Syrians are conscious.
42:40 Remember that tax? Yeah, I don't want to see your conscience, but God gave us
42:44 free choice for a reason. It was so important that he let Satan do what he wanted. So
42:48 God's given us a brain to choose him to choose other ways of life with that is
42:53 something very important when that's taken away from us. It damages us physically and
42:58 hurts our health moral injury. >> And I'm going say one quick thing and we're going get 70's
43:05 typical prescriptions. You know, we need to learn to be more tolerant of one another
43:12 because what you've just said about more injury, sometimes we if somebody doesn't agree
43:18 with our opinion, say you're for the vaccine or you're against the back seat. All the
43:23 sudden, it's like an all out war and his height. What? So people we kissed me to realize
43:29 that week. >> All. God did give s. >> Free more free will. gave
43:36 us the moral choice and we hope that we're using it right right. And it is a matter of
43:44 education. It's a matter of personal perspective. But with got equipped and to and we
43:49 don't want to let those are medical issues and our medical things. Take us away from what
43:55 we're supposed to be doing. Focusing on the big picture, a seeking.
44:00 >> First see key first, you know, so that that's what just go from there. But think
44:06 that's a great question. That's why these medical issues do have a belief
44:11 component. That's what you have to find physicians and people that that that that you
44:14 can work with that won't say, oh, this is the No, it's not the only way you have a say in
44:18 your life, too. >> Man, OK, this is from our dear friends, let and Michael
44:26 Harris in Scottsdale, Arizona High. then I'm like, whoa, and here is there typical
44:33 prescription good proper 17. 22 a Merry heart Good. Like a medicine.
44:41 >> I love that one. And you know, when you're happy and you laugh, I hope everyone I'm
44:45 not good at telling jokes. Otherwise I would. But you make and orphans, you know, if
44:48 you feel good. So I think we don't laugh enough, you know, but, you know, just funny
44:55 things that happen, you know, and you know, and and we need to laugh. We need to be happy.
44:59 We need to have joy. And the more we do that, you know, and same with thanks. You know, in
45:03 all things give thanks. It's hard to feel bad when you're laughing. Giving thanks a hard
45:08 thing to feel that. >> And you miss something. Joy is Joyce relationship with
45:16 Lord. Happy News can depend on our show comes to emotion, something him. I mean, if I've
45:19 if I've just lost child, I'm not going be happy, but I can still have a heart of joy. I
45:26 can still have to listen. Hope that I'm going to be united with that child for eternity.
45:32 And so it joy is the joy of the Lord is our string. There's a good guy. I guess,
45:40 you know, I should some icy look up that word, Mary, in seeing the original language
45:45 was that with more Mary or Joy? >> boy, I bet avoid that. They
45:49 were referring to a joyful heart cause. You know, there's going to be motions coming go.
45:53 But I think that joy, that comes from that. I think that's a good point. of I-10,
45:57 the joy of the Lord is a strict, OK, here's another fun. First Corinthians 10, 30.
46:04 Why not? Therefore, what ever you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of
46:12 God. And this comes from Janice in Ontario, Canada, that that is one of my tax.
46:17 You know, whatever we do, you know, but you remember, it's it's it's whatever we do with
46:23 our time. With with our thoughts with the things we put into my whatever we do. We
46:30 that's that's our goal. But remember. It's a process. You know, it's a process of
46:37 getting to do all those things. The glory of God. You know, he has to work with us
46:41 and for us and through us, the Holy Spirit. >> I let me have this. This
46:49 came up a couple asking is what's good source of vitamin B, 12 for people who are Mitch
46:53 Terrence. >> Sometimes people get it in for to fights. Soy products.
47:03 You know, you can get him fortified soy some different products have fortified the
47:07 12. I eat pretty healthy. I take a supplement, you know, so I I think that the easiest
47:15 thing, if you can't get it in the soil, you know, if you can't get it, you know, in
47:18 that just to take a supplement, you don't have to take very much a Little B. 12
47:24 goes a long way in the body. So you don't need very much of it to go a long way. But if
47:27 you if you don't want to take that, you might want to look for soy milk or something that
47:33 has the 12 added to that that might help some. >> It seems like there's a lot
47:38 of people that I'm running into. People who need make. have low pro team. And people
47:46 have been taking iron and then they take too much I mean, the varied and just this is a
47:56 context question. You know, because when you're in a neck, you want to know why, OK?
48:02 These pernicious anemia, there's bleeding any of those bone marrow, not making enough
48:06 blood. So the key to is understanding why. >> If you're bleeding, you
48:11 know the irons out going to solve that problem. If your iron deficient, yes, it would
48:17 help that. But there's a certain level that if you get too much, you get iron
48:21 overload. We have a process called our local team a crow says meaning iron. So too much
48:28 on is not. So that's why you going to need to see a provider. They can help guide
48:30 you through these things and try not to just follow whatever people see on the
48:37 Internet because no one statement out there doesn't follow for everyone that I
48:41 want to see a little bit about Internet Madison. You can't believe everything. You hear
48:45 him and K just because someone says it doesn't mean it's true for you. That might be true
48:51 for some people. But that doesn't mean it's true for you. And the supplement
48:56 industry. Be careful with that half supplements out there don't even have the things
48:59 that they claim in it in it. So you have to find a good source. Remember, they're not
49:05 regulated. We looked at some supplements recently the things that are in it aren't
49:10 even you know, they claim it's not even there. They just can put whatever they want in. So
49:15 you have to get a good source whenever you get some of that's why try to put some
49:18 people if you don't, you don't need supplements if you don't have deficiencies, OK? But the
49:25 most common deficiencies I see are the vitamin D getting the most of the D 3 products. A
49:29 pretty safe. Okay for strict vegans and K the be the B vitamins. And you can
49:37 supplement that. But for most else, if you eat a plant based diet used only out, don't have
49:42 a bad medical condition, usually don't need supplementation.
49:47 >> And so talk to the idea that supplements can enter act. Yes with Medicaid. Yes,
49:54 for scripture, I'm gonna put it very simple. Here. Everything interacts with
49:58 everything. Okay. Even whether you think it's going to work, they call that a placebo
50:02 effect. I give a person a pill that has nothing in it and they believe in it one 3rd of
50:07 the time, it's going to work that because they believe so. You believe that's what we
50:11 talked about. Billy Systems are important. but we have receptor Ys in our cells in
50:18 our body. And with we bombard them, let's say in an orchestra we have 100 French
50:26 warns okay with the French ones are going to drown out the trumpets. Okay, Wolf, we
50:30 take anything and nobody even if it's something good, it can Biden per sceptres
50:34 interceptors are are not getting what they need in the body. It can be a bad thing so
50:38 you can have too much of a good thing at times. You know, and I know it. We talked about
50:43 water. You can drink too much water. You can get too much rest. You can exercise too
50:49 much. You can sleep too much. You can eat too many vegetables. You can take too
50:54 many supplements. So that's why it's about balance based on, you know, biblical
50:58 prescriptions. Working with your provider, seeing the big picture working with your
51:05 belief systems. And that's why I think that the all of this, the only way it comes together
51:11 is food. The word of God. That's the only way it makes sense to me because why would
51:15 someone you know, one at? All. Eyes are so transit here. You know, we think about eternal
51:22 life. We know that, you know, our lives are just very short here. You know it when we see
51:27 the big picture and we see how much we have to look forward to. Sometimes we don't want to
51:32 get distracted by by things that the minutiae in the world that so easily distracts us
51:39 from seeing the big picture so so that's why when everyone, you know, to the focus on that
51:43 today, that's the key to health is Christ a man. Let me go through this. we have
51:48 another question on it. I escaped. These are words that you use or terms. You used a
51:56 lot. >> Really. Fantastic terms. My opinion. Moral injury.
52:05 Individual belief system. Quality of life. Don't let disease define who you are.
52:15 Balance process. And then over here on the other side, you have an equal sign call
52:22 biblical prescription. That kind of sums it all up. Yeah, I mean, these are great words
52:29 that you kept using, roll over and over and over again. And I would sit your trial. Term,
52:35 used a lot. What does it all mean? Gradually kind of story. You know, all this means fish.
52:45 This means this. But biblical prescription. >> And and saying that it
52:52 dawned on me, we only have a few minutes left. We want to let you know how to get this 7
52:58 week training course it will pull medical prescriptions for life or any of doctor
53:07 Markham's books. You can't go to. He is website. They buckle prescriptions dot com. They're
53:17 vocal prescription stop com and on that website, you'll find all of the books and the
53:24 information. But I do. But late that this particular 7 week course. what an
53:35 evangelistic tool question, how you can get people who are going to come necessary quote,
53:38 unquote Bible study. Yeah. Who will come here gets my vote, but they're they're interested
53:43 in health. That's great. Here's something that's interesting. I don't see name.
53:51 This is good evening. And I'm just going to do this quickly because it's good Monday and
53:56 that's inspector Mark and sister brother Quinn. This is one of my most favorite
54:01 Scriptures. I don't think it's a scripture, but this is a because they heard it cited
54:07 when watching a Christian movie. Maybe remember the goal. I bet this is that was
54:17 the first Corinthians. So it was a scripture. I think remember the goal? I didn't
54:22 see the movie. What a that some support you're talking about right now. That's the
54:29 big picture. Tell us how. God has led U. To this point. He he keeps expanding your
54:41 ministry. Your understanding. Why are you doing what you're doing in 2 minutes? Tell me.
54:50 Well, I feel. The Holy Spirit is working. In me. To present this message. This balance
55:01 message to world. And he chose Luke at one time to make a transition. I'm hoping that
55:12 this this is my calling as well. Even though all a business coming here. That's
55:18 OK, but but someone needs to speak out about this. >> And be bold about it. And 2
55:25 to stand up for what's right. And not sugarcoat things. And I know there's been lots of
55:31 arrows thrown at me. Especially through the you tube. And there's been, you
55:36 know, different things happen. But in the long run. If alongside with crises working.
55:44 I just praying for even more of the Holy Spirit as time goes on. So I can do what's
55:50 right. But but I want in my heart, I feel like God moving need to be a spokesman for for
55:59 him in that one of the spokesman, there's many others out there that's doing great
56:01 stuff. One of the spokesman and health message and everyone has a different
56:06 approach. And I'm hoping that this approach will bring glory to God and bring people to the
56:12 kingdom. >> love it that you're already going out into and become the
56:18 nation's yeah. It produces sped past or what was it now Yeah. Kelvin Carolina cry
56:24 testimony that was. Jim, thank you so much for what you do in and help us to our that your
56:32 wife. Sonja is just she's on fire for God. She says she's right. There a lot of this.
56:39 The lot of the current events, a lot of the material I get comes from my wife
56:45 >> I try to work them. And so she most of the credit for for some of the things you're
56:50 hearing today. that's good one week. Thank you so much coming in. Ministering in. We were
56:56 going to pray real quick. only got 12 seconds half the pope pray after the program. We
57:02 want to thank you for joining us tonight. Our prayer is for you. That in race.
57:10 >> Of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ alive. And the father and the Fellowship of
57:13 the Holy Spirit. >> We'll with you today and yeah, and love.
