Art Linkletter wanted to live to be a
hundred
and he wanted to live a hundred
because he read this book,
it was a
Pulitzer prize-winning book
published in 1933 called Lost Horizon,
it was written by James Hilton
and in this book Lost
Horizon
James Hilton coin the term
Shangri-la
How many of you heard of Shangri-la?
ok that's where that came from that book
and Art Linkletter got really excited
about living to be a hundred
the book
was actually written
about people
called the Hunza.
How many heard of the
Hunzas?
Hunza come from northeast of
Pakistan
and they're a third world country
obviously in an Art Linkletter hired an
eye doctor by the name Dr. Allen Banik
and this eye doctor was kind of
an amateur farmer
and Art Linkletter
funded him
to go there for six months
during the growing season
and find out
what their secret was
living to be a hundred
and it was very obvious
from reading the
book that Allen Banik
had not read
Clive McKay's material
on his rant
and he was just making lots of observations
didn't give his opinion what was
important
but he was very good observer
and one of the things
he found out that
these people
were a third world country
they had no electricity
no indoor
plumbing
no hospitals no pharmacies no
clinics no doctors
they just use home
remedies like herbs
and massage therapy
and that sort of thing
and yet they were
the healthiest longest lived people on
earth they came from a little mountain
range
little-known mountain range by the
name of the Karakoram mountains
about 800 miles east of the Himalayas
oftentimes people say they're from the
Himalayas
but they're from Karakoram
mountains
and one of the
things
Dr. Banik observed was that
they would irrigate with water
that was
kind of gray and opaque
it had lots of silt in it from the glacier driving up
the mountain rocks
and they would
irrigate with his glacial water
full of this
rock silt
is finally grounded rock silt
about the same particle sizes tell
and contained over 60 minerals
and they would irrigate
with this
and as the water percolated
down
into the fields and gardens
it left
a half inch to one inch of this gray
silk top of the soil
and before it dried
it would run out with them hoes and
rakes neighborhood hoe and rake the silt
down into the soil
before it blew away
now these people lived at the 19,500
19,500 feet you can't
grow corn and potatoes and rice
ok they could grow wheat and rye
and
barley
but because of the very short
growing season
their yields were very very
tiny
their only carbohydrates they ate
during the day
the only carbohydrate they ate during the day
was a little tortilla one
tortilla a day,
a little round
flat bread
that was it
no other carbohydrate
the majority of
their food
was a goat and lamb and
mutton and and camel
and things like
yak
and rabbits
and they get some wild
sheep and goats in the area
they ate chickens and and eggs
they didn't have fish in
those areas are too high up for fish
and so then they cooked in butter use milk
and cheese and yogurt
you can start dairy protein as cheese
and yogurt and
that was it
to have a little garden
they grow a little bit of cabbage and
tomatoes
nothing else
it would also take the wood
ashes from their fires are cooking and
heating fires and put in their gardens
how many ever put wood ashes from a fire
in your garden
yeah this is a very old European and
Asian custom
and somehow somebody
learned that by putting the wood ashes
from your fires in your garden that
increases the yields
and makes the food
taste better and so forth
well it turns out the wood ashes
are the
minerals that are left when you burn
away the carbon in the web
so now I had
not only an animal model
but a human
model they had a renewable source of
minerals in her food
you're a low-carbohydrate diet
and to me it
seemed to explain why they lived to a ripe
old age and are very productive.
The other thing I want to talk about briefly is a
1997 study by the Health Insurance
Association of America
found that
75% of insurance fraud is
committed by providers
which is their code
word for doctors
75% of health
fraud health insurance fraud was
committed by doctors
who apply for
payment
which they get for procedures
they didn't even do
they apply for
payment
for procedures they give you
that you didn't need.
They're the only
profession
or trade in America or the
world
where they don't have to go to
bank with they need extra money
they just send in a couple of claims and insurance
company
insurance company pays them
they
don't even theirs
not a single doctor goes to jail for
that
insurance companies write that off
as the cost of doing business
now who
pays for that
each and every one of us
as these premiums go up as more and more
doctors are doing these things
and they look at it as: "Hey it's our money we're
gonna get it anyway we we have to."
This came out September 1997
was an article
published in the journal American
Medical Association:
Young doctors lack
stethoscope skills
which is you know the
primary instrument of a doctor
many new
doctors steeped in high-tech medicine
can't properly use a stethoscope
What they learned was they could just
identify
20-percent, just identify
twenty percent of heart problems that were
presented to them they could not
identify eighty percent. How could you
go to school for 14 years and not use a
stethoscope like an apprentice
carpenter practicing for seven years how
can you not learn how to use a hammer
right
the reason why doctors don't spend any
time learning how to use a stethoscope
is because if they were use a
stethoscope to diagnose cardiovascular
problems and by the way ladies and
gentlemen you can identify all
cardiovascular problems with a
stethoscope it takes an extra 10 minutes
listen every square millimeter the heart
and the vowels in the arteries and
things, but you can do it, gain the skills
to do it but then you make an extra 30
bucks for a long office visit, but if they
send you in they send you in for an
angiogram, a cat scan, MRI or an ultrasound guess what they make 421 dollars every
time they send somebody in for those
procedures
what's better 421 bucks or thirty bucks
this happens three thousand times a year
in America. Doctors kill each year in
America 300,000 patients in hospitals
alone, each year's result of medical
negligence 300,000 are killed each year
in hospitals alone as a result of
medical negligence. Each year in America
1.3 million Americans are injured in
hospitals as a result of medical negligence
each year America 2 million are infected in
hospitals alone as a result of medical
negligence and despite heroic
round-the-clock nursing care and
intravenous antibiotics 90,000 to a hundred
thousand of these two million each year die
in hospitals each year 2.2 million
people get what's called
adverse drug reactions to the drugs that
they are introduced to the hospital and
despite heroic measures hundred and
forty thousand of 200,000 die every year,
you add these up ladies and gentlemen at 3.5 million 24 million casualties killed
injured infected each and households by
doctors each year 3.5 million to 4 million
killed injured infected each year in
hospitals by doctors is estimated to be
double that outside of hospitals right
now doctors each year America kill just
short of 800,000 people. They are now listed as the number one cause of death in
Americans, number two is cardiovascular
disease, number three is cancer. Number
one are doctor kills. Forty percent of
Americans are obese
this is relatively new 50 years ago it was
like fifteen percent and a hundred years ago
there was very rarely less than one
percent of americans are obese it turns
out it is caused by a simple single problem.
I can walk on a horse farm and I can tell
you in 30 seconds if the horses on that
farm are getting all the minerals they
need this is a little working wagon an
Amish farm in Lancaster County
Pennsylvania and I walked on that place
and I knew immediately that the horses
weren't getting all the minerals they
needed because the horses were eating
along this buckboard rail and
they just ate this one particular place
why did they get one particular place
because that's where the farmer put his
family jumped out of the wagon every
time his hot sweaty and full of what
salt
ok, now my daddy had a fourth-grade
education and he knew every time he'd
see our cattle tune on the fence and
eating dirt and chewing on the feed box
instead of eating the feed their
mentally deficient he'd given minerals
that go away and we usually learned
painfully were a kid that's not socially
acceptable to chew on the furniture and
eat dirt
Bam, don't do that anymore, that chair
cost a lot of money
oh if you're that hungry go into the
kitchen have a piece of pie and ice
cream or eat a Twinkie or have a RC a moon pie and so people began to recognize
these cravings which we call pike and
cribbing in animals munchies and people
the munchies and people are biking
dripping and animals by crippling
animals as much reason people and so
we've been taught that these cravings
and the munchies are due to a twinkie
deficiency now if we were taught as kids
this is caused by mineral deficiency and would take minerals that have zero
calories in them Americans would all be
slim. Weight problems are nothing more
than a mineral deficiency disease. Now
nobody knows more about weight, weight
gain and weight loss than veterinarians why
is that? When you put an animal into the
feet lot what are they supposed to do
lose weight or gain weight? Gain weight!
so we know the technology and snack food
companies know this they spend a lot of
money on research learning the
technology of weight gain and they fix
their little snacks to make sure that
you just can't eat one fact one of them
Lay's potato chips even uses that is
their motto on their bag
you just can't eat one and so they fix
it so you're mineral deficient if you eat
their stuff
ok but if you take your minerals the
cravings go away and that alone you can
lose 10 15 20 pounds just cause you're
not desiring to eat things between meals
you're not going to sit there watch TV
and fill your face all night because you
don't have those cravings anymore it's
not a a problem with your self-respect
is not a problem you don't have a
deficiency of hypnosis you have a
deficiency of acupuncture you're having
a deficiency of ephedra. You have deficiencies of
minerals you take your mineral program
need a couple of meal replacers a day give
up some carbohydrates which you learn
from Clive McKay and and William Banting
and so forth and and Bob Atkins you give
up carbohydrates in your bread your
pastas, in your rice or potatoes and
you're gonna lose weight and keep it off it
won't come back as long as you stay on
that program but soon as you go off your
minerals craving start up again because
it's a mineral deficiency get rid of
fried foods and margins and sources of
free radicals. They didn't even think about
eating cholesterol, this was just some
antioxidants and so we know from animal
studies and these sort of early studies
of human beings that if you eat enough
cholesterol not fried not cooked in
margin, but poached and soft boiled and
hard-boiled and soft scramble and butter
and meat medium rare and so forth which
we'll talk about in a minute and take in
antioxidants the odds of you getting
alzheimers disease reduced almost zero.
Now how many of you have ever heard of high blood
pressure raise your hand
sure everybody knows about high blood
pressure, a very common disease how many have
ever heard of a veterinarian telling you
need to give your dog a calcium channel
blocker - beta blocker for high blood
pressure
not very often how about your goldfish
what about your parakeet and guinea-pigs
you know every animal can get high blood
pressure just like people, the reason why
they don't is in these little pellets we
talked about earlier we put things in
there so you don't get it they can get
it but they don't get it because we put
the stuff in the pellets so they don't
get it. Have you ever heard that salt is bad
for when it comes to blood pressure
salts can initiate high blood pressure
how much have you ever heard that
genetics has something to do with it
both of those are wrong salt has nothing
to do with high blood pressure and
genetics has nothing to hide pressure
it's a simple deficiency of a single
nutrient a single deficiency the single
nutrient we've eliminated high blood
pressure in all these animals
what's the first thing a good farmer
puts offers livestock in the pasture salt
blocker - salt lick, isn't it and there's
nobody out in the pasture tone a cow
she's limited to one like a day is there?
I refuse to believe my human patients
are dumber than a cow or sheep, say look
go ahead and salt your food to taste and don't
worry about if you put too much salt on
there, it won't taste good you won't eat it. Remember the Japanese they consume an
entire saltshaker per person a day
15 grams of salt today and have
eighty-five percent less cardiovascular
disease we do and high blood pressure is
not even in their vocabulary because
they don't get it very often. This came
out in July of 1997
to redeem my view on salt: It says
doctors lack proof that too much salt is
unhelpful after years of telling healthy
people and too much salt is good for
them
researchers still don't have solid
evidence to back up that claim what
doctors call people give unsubstantiated
health and medical advice for profit
they call them quacks don't they? So next time you
have a doctor say: "look I need you to
give up salt cause we're getting to that
age we gotta worry about your blood
pressure..." Say :" dr., you're a quack!"
there's no evidence to support that
claim yeah I know you want to give me
those statin drugs and blood pressure
medication even though i don't have
those problems and you need to go back
and kind of read your stuff here because
that's not true
well there's a wonderful study done by
the US government called the sodium task
force, once and for all they're trying to
prove that salt was the cause of high blood
pressure this is published in April of
1997 and this is the
bottom line of the study it was called the
sodium taskforce 1997 you can look it up
on the Internet
the study found that people who limited
their salt intake to 1,000 milligrams or
one gram a day like doctors want you to
do have six times more heart attacks six
hundred percent more heart attacks and
those who defy their doctors a double
that amount. If you listen your doctor you had
six times more heart attacks than people
who defy their doctors and ate double that
amount
so what minerals are we talking about
what minerals are we talking about when
it comes to high blood pressure
it turns out that deficiency of calcium. I just want to remind you that if
you don't take care of your own destiny
if you don't take hold of things and
take control of your own destiny life is
going to take care of your destiny for you and
usually it's not very nice
and so if you take control and rebel
a little bit, be one of those mean feisty
little people that defy their doctor but
you have to do with education just can't
just can't do something bad you have to
know what you're doing
educate yourself and the odds are going
to save yourselves an enormous amount of
unnecessary misery going to save
yourselves a gob of money and you have
many many many healthy your life will
definitely help you to educate yourself
education is power education with action
is super power
don't let somebody else even a doctor
determine your future you gotta make
those determinations yourself
this just came out in January of this
year health spending has biggest surgeon
11 years
we're going to jump right over here say
Uwe E. Reinhardt a health economist at
Princeton said the increase in health
care spending is no surprise this is
what the American people ask for when
they abolished managed care what he said
there was this for about eight years
the cost of healthcare state the same
when it was managed care, doctors didn't
like it, because managed-care kept them
from doing unnecessary tests, managed
healthcare kept them from doing
unnecessary surgeries, writing
prescriptions for unnecessary drugs and
they didn't like it, because it cut their
income in half, they weren't getting
kickbacks anymore and so they began to
whisper their patients you know there's
a economist there there is a bookkeeper
making decisions what test you should
have and what drugs you should get what
treatments them it should be my job I'm
a doctor should be my job and after a
while people said yeah it should be the
doctors job-wise some bookkeeper doing
that and so they convince the American
public that the managed-care was no good
and so people then complain to their
legislatures then voted out and of
course their workplaces went to other
things other the managed care and
immediately when managed-care got dumped
healthcare doubled and tripled
it is just going up like a skyrocket,
because now there's no controls on the
doctors well how does this affect us?
This came out and may have 2003 age 65
plus workforce rose sharply since 1980
Americans are living longer there
fretting about their financial security
what is the biggest reason why people
are worried about their financial
security - healthcare right?
health-care is the biggest thing that
people worry about as you get older you
need more healthcare and there's all
kinds of things happening because of
health care. Doctors always get paid,
you're going to pay it your employer is
going to pay it the government's going
to pay up they don't worry they're happy
right
I thought this is a really a very
interesting editorial, this came out in
February of this year
just last month just about a month ago
outsourcing the American Dream how maybe
you heard about sourcing okay good
that's half of your outsourcing means
that they're sending American jobs other
countries are giving an example these
big corporations are training indian
people in New Delhi how to speak with a
texas accent so when you call up you
know you see someone TV you want to
order or in a catalog says call this
toll-free number or you may want to make
an appointment for a appliance repairman
to come out of your house and put a new
motor in your in your dryer or something
when you call up and say howdy ma'am how
y'all doing
they've taught these guys in pakistan
india how to speak with a texas accent
how can we hit you it only rings three
times and they pick it up in New Delhi
India they take this order, payroll
clerks in Asian nations take-home less than
two dollars an hour and no health
benefits their counterparts in this
country average fifteen dollars and
seventeen cents an hour with health
benefits, so as health benefits climb
and companies don't want to pay them
anymore they start outsourcing jobs two
countries that don't have health
benefits and what happens to the people
who are here left in the United States
they still have to pay for their
healthcare according to the US
Department of Agriculture a hundred
years ago Americans were eating half a
pound of sugar per person per year
half a pound of sugar per person per
year, today a hundred years later
according to US Department of
Agriculture Americans are eating a
hundred and fifty seven pounds of sugar
per person per year, are now reading a
half a pound today, so a hundred years
gone from a half pound of sugar per
person per year to have a pound of sugar
per person per day. That plus the
deficiency of these nutrients in our
food has resulted in this epidemic of
diabetes. Do you think our genetics has
changed that much? I don't think so, if you look in
the book rare earths and cures, one of
our books, a guy who's doing all this study
on these to trace minerals back in the
nineteen fifties actually dr. Walter
Murch went back into the
nineteen-forties began to look at
chromium levels in American blood and
found out there was a big range in 1948
micrograms per liter parts-per-billion
22,000 1970 want to drop 1372 dropped 10
and seventy through our chromium levels
in her blood drop 24.7 5.1 and 74
dropped 0.73 21.6 and 78 dropped 0.16 is
it going up or down is dropping like a
rock on 1981 up three times over 1978
value 0.43 why did that happen
remember 1977 they're publishing all
these papers on how chromium vanadium
was good for you and so everybody was
taking chromium vanadium run into health
food stores and taken it and everybody's
blood levels of chromium vanadium went
up because they couldn't cure diabetes
with chromium vanadium when all the
other cofactors 1985 went back down 0.13
because people get frustrated cause it
wouldn't work if you just use those to
trace minerals about the other cofactors
so between not having enough of these
nutrients the chromium vanadium the
cofactors no food anymore and eating all
the sugar more sugar let's chromium
vanadium we have a epidemic have an
epidemic of anolon set type 2 diabetes
this is not a mystery that you can
prevent and cure diseases with vitamins
minerals. This came out 1992 cover article
Time magazine the real power of vitamins
new research shows that may help fight
cancer heart disease the ravages of
aging...
