00:01 The following program is designed to demonstrate
00:03 simple workouts that you can
00:05 use to improve your health.
00:08 Be sure to consult your physician before
00:10 beginning any exercise program.
00:15 Digestive problems are all time high in our society.
00:17 There are definite reasons why.
00:19 We will explore that next on Body and Spirit.
00:51 Hello, I am Dick Nunez, Exercise Physiologist
00:54 and Principal of Miracle Meadows in Mountain State
00:56 Leadership Academy in West Virginia.
00:57 Welcome to Body and Spirit.
01:00 During my years of working in athletic clubs
01:02 and being the Wellness Director at the Black Hills
01:03 Health and Education Center,
01:05 I come across people with lot of digestive disorders.
01:07 They don't handle their food very well because
01:10 there is not many enzymes to breakdown
01:12 what they have or they are allergic to the things
01:13 are consuming or they flat out
01:16 just small their food hole.
01:17 Thinking some how the God maybe
01:19 put teeth in their stomach.
01:21 Well, last I've heard there are no teeth in the stomach,
01:24 you have to use your teeth in the mouth
01:26 to properly chew up your food,
01:28 have it mix with the digestive enzymes
01:30 and start the digestive process.
01:32 Some foods you take in may not mix very well.
01:35 Also, a lot of people wash their food down
01:37 with various beverages or even just with water.
01:40 And, that dilutes digestive enzymes
01:42 and slowers down the entire process
01:44 leading them to have a lot of gas and
01:46 stomach distress also improper stimulation
01:49 and in our society today there is a lot of problems
01:52 with colon disorders, colon cancers are
01:54 extremely high were transit time should be
01:57 about 12 to 24 hours,
01:58 in our society it's 2 to 3 days.
02:00 There are definite reasons, why digestion is going
02:03 the wrong direction. We will explore that
02:05 more as we get into our exercise program.
02:07 I believe we're ready to start helping me out today
02:09 is my daughter Britney and also Kristy.
02:12 Britney is a student at Mountain State Elementary.
02:14 Kristy is at Miracle Meadows.
02:18 And, we brought the chairs out today.
02:20 My think of means, we are just gonna have
02:21 an easy workout, doesn't always mean that,
02:23 but we're gonna use it as a exercise tool, okay.
02:27 Let's bring our arms up,
02:28 we're gonna squeeze together
02:29 and back, together and back, good,
02:38 right, it's 10 more, and 2, and 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
02:52 8, 9, and 10, good. Let's press our hands,
02:58 prayerful position, turn them out,
03:01 push out, and draw back in.
03:04 In our society, today people should be eating
03:07 5-6 servings of raw fruits and vegetables everyday,
03:10 but in America, the average person gets
03:12 a serving of raw fruits and vegetables
03:14 once every 7 to 14 days.
03:16 Not very good, if you are living on can fruits
03:19 and vegetables, won't be too long to you totally
03:21 to pleat yourself of enzyme activity.
03:24 Enzymes are not stable beyond the 122 degrees
03:27 and they will be deactivated
03:28 that temperature, but we all need to get
03:30 enzymes in our body in regular intervals,
03:33 so we can as do the process as we need to
03:35 do especially looking at digestion.
03:39 Okay, let's press down now.
03:41 So, if you get a lot of gas
03:44 and you feel like you are always bloated
03:46 or you get indigestion, you might really look
03:49 at what your consuming and how you are consuming it.
03:52 Lot of foods people eat today really as far as
03:54 I'm concern give you a negative energy output
03:57 because it actually take more energy to
03:59 break down that they actually give you
04:00 because they are so refined and processed.
04:02 Okay, let's go five more,

25:44 Yeah, especially after your workout.
25:48 Alright, switch and hold that,
25:59 and let's hold for 10 more seconds, 1, 2,
26:02 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Good,
26:13 alright that should be good.
26:14 Thanks a lot ladies.
26:21 Exercise is also very helpful for digestion
26:23 because it helps the body relax and allows the body
26:25 to digest and simulate the nutrition affectively.
26:29 You have heard before the people would say
26:31 especially those who like to drink alcohol.
26:33 Well, a little bit of wine is good for us
26:36 because it helps our digestion.
26:38 But the reality is not the alcohol,
26:40 although alcohol will help somebody relax
26:42 much better ways of relaxing then taking
26:44 alcohol, but there is a component with
26:46 the grapes themselves that help
26:48 the aspect of digestion. So, you don't need to
26:51 use excuses and say, Oh! I need to drink wine,
26:53 is reality you do not. Digestion is something
26:56 is very complicated, very complex;
26:59 the organs that do the digestion are
27:01 very sensitive. Your liver has so many functions,
27:04 digestion being just being part of it
27:06 your stomach. We don't wanna abuse our stomach
27:08 and continue feeding ourselves, the stomach
27:11 needs about 5-6 hours to rest in between meals.
27:14 The reality is we keep putting food into
27:16 our stomach constantly throughout the day,
27:19 the stomach does have a chance ever totally
27:21 release and in some laboratory tests
27:23 it will actually find, the people will have
27:25 residues of the previous morning's breakfast
27:27 still in their stomach, if they just do nothing,
27:30 but eat throughout the day.
27:31 We are found that if you eat 2 to 3 meals a day,
27:33 that's been best because it gives you plenty of
27:36 time to let the body empty.
27:38 I know, when people came to the Wellness
27:39 Program they always said, there is no way I can
27:42 survive on just two, two meals a day.
27:43 The reality is neither they will survive
27:46 with force, they felt better they ever thought
27:48 before, but do it for the right reason
27:49 Philippines 4:13 says, I can do all things
27:52 through Christ, who strengthens me.
27:54 God bless you, hope to see you next time.
