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, 04:05 2, 3, 4, 5 and now we're gonna up, 04:12 up, and up, and up, and up, and up, and up, 04:23 and up, and up, up, and up, 10 more, 04:33 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and hold tight, 04:53 squeeze it hard for 10, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 05:02 9, and 10, good.

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. |
