00:01 Welcome back.
00:03 I'm your host Don Mackintosh. 00:04 We're glad you are with us today. 00:05 We also join with Dr. Neil Nedley, 00:07 who is the President 00:09 of Weimar Center for Health and Education. 00:11 We're talking with him today about program 00:13 that's been around since the late 70s, 00:15 but has just become increasingly more and more, 00:19 or better received by people around the world. 00:22 We're talking about the Newstart program. 00:23 Right? Yes. 00:24 And that program is exciting. 00:26 It stops, it prevents, 00:28 it reverses the common killers. 00:30 We talked about diabetes a bit. 00:32 We talked about arthritis, 00:35 but Dr. Nedley what about heart disease? 00:38 Oh, it significantly helps heart disease. 00:41 Actually the Weimar diet 00:44 will reverse coronary artery disease, 00:47 yet it is a diet that has actually been 00:50 shown to improve the patients' angiograms. 00:56 And to get on that program and to stay on the program 00:59 can actually reverse the major killer in America 01:02 and that is coronary artery diseases. 01:05 And unfortunately a lot people come to Weimar, 01:08 after they've had their second bypass, 01:10 third bypass, they ran out of veins. Right. 01:12 And their doctor says, 01:14 you know, we have done everything 01:16 that we can as far as bypassing, 01:18 you have nothing else that we can bypass 01:20 and your disease is back. 01:22 You know, bypass surgery only lasts about 10 years 01:24 in the average individual 01:26 because they don't change their diet that much 01:29 and it should last a whole lot longer than that 01:32 and it can, on the Weimar diet. 01:35 But often by the time they come their heart 01:37 is so disease that it's extremely weak, 01:39 yet still can benefit the individual 01:42 coming to Weimar their heart will strengthen coming there. 01:46 But how much better it would have been 01:48 had they gotten to the point where 01:51 they are before the heart 01:53 actually got irreversibly weak. 01:55 And once you have a bad pump, 01:58 it's really hard to be able to get 02:00 into the 50 miles of trails there at Weimar 02:04 and be able to see that beautiful scenery 02:07 through all of its glory. 02:09 Even those, you know, the very challenging cases 02:11 we see amazing things. 02:13 But what you are saying is get there now, 02:14 don't wait till later. 02:15 And if you've had a history of heart disease 02:18 or if you've, you know, had that problem 02:20 in your family then go on and address it. 02:24 It's really quite fun. 02:25 I mean one of the things, 02:26 you know, you have got 02:28 someone is getting a little overweight, 02:29 someone has high blood pressures, 02:31 all those things are leading the heart disease. 02:34 Absolutely, yes. 02:35 So it's good time to get out there. 02:36 And you know, the before and after pictures 02:38 at Weimar are pretty amazing, 02:40 and what it happens with the weight loss. 02:43 It's just incredible. 02:45 It's, it really rivals the gastric bypass surgery 02:50 in most cases and without all of the complications, 02:53 you have the gastric bypass surgery often, 02:55 you have iron deficiency. 02:56 You don't observe iron very well. 02:58 You have a number of nutrient deficiencies 03:00 that you happen to deal with. 03:02 The skin changes, 03:04 you know, it's a much harder type of skin 03:06 on the individual and also, 03:11 they are dealing with health issues, 03:12 the complications of the surgery. 03:15 Why not give this a try, where you don't have to go 03:17 to any of those complications, 03:19 far less expensive against gastric bypass surgery 03:22 and you can have the same results. 03:25 Now the starving people, have to review this? 03:27 No, it's not starvation. 03:29 Actually you will feel full at Weimar. 03:32 It's just that the food that utilized is very tasty 03:35 and much less dense in calories 03:38 and the individuals educated be able to do that at home 03:42 and it's just simple choices utilizing that frontal lobe 03:47 that can produce a dramatic benefit 03:50 and you know this brochure that you showed there, 03:53 if you have chance you know call for the brochure 03:56 you will see some of this before and after pictures 03:58 of these real life patients who have come there. 04:02 And you will see what has happened to them 04:05 just in regards to weight loss, 04:08 and how they are able to stay 04:10 with the program and enjoying. 04:11 A lot people think if you get on a program like this 04:13 you are not gonna enjoy life anymore, that is so false. 04:16 In fact, study after study shows 04:18 your enjoyment of life goes up. 04:20 Your social relations improve. 04:23 Even depression can significantly improve 04:26 and your life is gonna be far more abundant 04:30 by getting on a program that is best for your body. 04:33 And they have a yearly a long term program for people 04:35 and many people come back. 04:37 And they come back just to eat the food, 04:38 food so good. That's right. 04:41 I was amazed, you know, coming back for that 04:44 and you think, man I can't think 04:46 of anything better to eat than what I mean, 04:48 that's why I don't go these places 04:49 because I want eat when I want to eat. 04:51 But people find food that's good there. 04:54 Well, you know, we did another 04:57 Health for Lifetime program about a very important study. 05:01 Landmark Study that show when the food tastes better 05:04 you actually lose weight. 05:06 And so the food tastes good at Weimar 05:09 and that's one of the reasons why you lose weight. 05:11 It's when the food is not as tasty 05:14 that people have a tendency to overeat 05:16 because they are hoping to be able to find some taste. 05:19 When the taste is there, you don't have that desire 05:22 to continue to go back to it. 05:25 Now you know another thing that the program 05:28 talks about being able to do is that it will renew 05:32 or will boost the immune system 05:34 and we're talking about this specially with people 05:37 that maybe are concerned about a diagnosis of cancer 05:40 or have been, you know, 05:42 just kind of beatdown or whatever reason. 05:44 They want get their immune system backup. 05:46 How does that work? 05:48 Well it actually it works through 05:51 all eight of those remedies. 05:53 You know, sunlight for instance 05:55 does improve the immune system. 05:57 Vitamin D will reduce the risk of cancer 06:00 by 50 to 70 percent 06:02 and if you have breast cancer, 06:04 colon cancer, both of those have now been proven 06:08 that sunlight will improve your longevity 06:11 after a cancer diagnosis 06:13 and that is just proper use of sunlight alone. 06:16 If you add to that, the nutrition changes 06:18 where you are getting more beta carotene. 06:20 You're getting more Vitamin A, 06:22 you are getting more Vitamin C, 06:24 Vitamin E from the foods that you are eating 06:27 and then the antioxidant levels are very high. 06:30 It's a very rich antioxidant food menu 06:35 that is being supplied there 06:37 and that also has its role in preventing 06:40 and boosting cancer. Or immune system. 06:42 In fact, if you are, yeah I'm sorry 06:44 yes boosting the immune system 06:46 which prevents the cancer spread in some cases. 06:50 You know, if you call the Newstart number, 06:53 you will be able to talk to a gentleman there 06:57 who was only given a few weeks to live 06:59 when he came to Weimar. 07:01 He actually works for Weimar now in the call center 07:04 with a brain malignancy and... Brain tumor. 07:08 as the result of the program and proper treatment, 07:13 he is disease-free and it's been I believe 12 years 07:17 or more since that time 07:19 and it's a good picture of health 07:22 and Weimar made major difference in that outcome. 07:27 You know, some people listening and thinking 07:30 about a place like this, 07:31 they were considered alternative medicine 07:33 but is it just the plans, is it just the walking 07:37 or is medicine involved, the practice of medicine. 07:42 Oh, the practice of medicine is involved 07:43 That's not like the doctors 07:45 there are going to not use any medicine period. 07:50 Actually it's a very scientific program. 07:53 Often the term Alternative Medicine, 07:55 is a term that means unproven medicine. 07:59 And what is being utilized at Weimar is not unproven. 08:03 It really shouldn't be an alternative. 08:04 There should be something. 08:05 They should be offered virtually to every patient 08:08 with the chronic diseases problem in America today. 08:12 But it isn't, even though it's proven. 08:15 And that's something we really need 08:17 to educate the healthcare providers, 08:19 that's one of the reasons 08:20 why I'm associated with a organization 08:22 call the, American College of Lifestyle Medicine, 08:25 where we are bent on educating physicians 08:29 in regards to the good scientific principles 08:32 where changes in diet and lifestyle 08:34 and hydrotherapy and proper rest 08:38 with the proper light cycles etc, 08:40 can actually be very healing for a number of diseases. 08:45 So they can offer their patients 08:46 more than just typical prescriptions. 08:50 So does it boost your mental health, 08:51 you feel better going there mentally even? 08:54 Absolutely! In fact, one of our goals 08:58 is to start a Mental Health Program 09:02 right there at Weimar, 09:04 where we run Depression Recovery Programs 09:07 several times a year. 09:08 We run programs for other mental health, 09:10 a problem as well. 09:12 And we have already run these programs in other settings, 09:15 you know, moving from Oklahoma 09:17 to health out with the mental health component 09:21 there in California. 09:24 And we have found that the program 09:26 that we're going to be taking to Weimar 09:28 actually works better than any combination of medicines 09:31 on the planet for Depression. 09:33 In fact 90 percent of people are able to live 09:36 depression-free without any medication 09:38 without continued counseling, 09:41 once they go through this program. 09:44 They have the tools so they will not be able to, 09:47 they won't suffer from depression anymore. 09:51 This is major Depression. 09:52 You are not talking Bipolar, probably helps Bipolar. 09:54 Does help Bipolar, but some Bipolar patients 09:57 are gonna continue to need medicine, and it depends 10:01 upon the severity of their Bipolar. 10:03 So would it be fair to say that the principles 10:05 of Newstart physically lived out 10:07 also been helped you mentally? 10:10 Oh, absolutely. 10:11 There is no question. It helps you mentally. 10:12 Your mental performance will go up we're tired. 10:16 You know, people will talk about 10:17 their memories improving. 10:19 They will talk about how their relationships 10:21 with their spouse have improved. 10:23 You know, we've had many people that have had 10:25 marital problems that come to Weimar 10:27 and the side benefit that they weren't anticipating 10:30 is their marital problems improved. 10:32 And how did they improve? 10:33 Because many marital problems 10:34 are doing mental health problems, 10:36 of one or both spouses, 10:37 and so if the mental health issues improve 10:40 than it stands to reason 10:42 that the marriage will improve as well. 10:44 Well, you know, I see on brochure, 10:46 sure I want to show the back of the brochure 10:48 again with the map in the website 10:50 and the phone number. 10:52 I see on that this is listed 10:53 as the top in the top 10 program. 10:57 It's actually number two 10:58 among these types of programs in this country in America... 11:03 And that was for weight loss. 11:04 That was the physician committee 11:05 for responsible medicine. Right. 11:07 But there is the number 800-525-9192. 11:11 You can see very easy access right off I-80. 11:15 Log into newstart.com, and check this out 11:18 actually just start come there 11:20 and I take a day and visit or just call that number 11:25 and find out how you can get that brochure 11:28 with all of the information that's packed into it. 11:30 Yeah, they will say you have a DVD. 11:33 You can, on the website they have 11:35 all kinds of different things too 11:37 that are resources and what not. 11:39 And it's really quite a place. Quite place. 11:42 You know, there is about 450 acres 11:46 and they say it's about 15 miles of trails 11:49 and you might think, well I can walk. 11:51 But many people that come, they do not be able to walk. 11:55 We see them walk in the trails. 11:57 They really get life back. 11:59 Yes, and 15 is conservative estimate, 12:02 actually that there is significantly... 12:04 Hope it get loss in three months. 12:08 What, just one last quick thing. 12:10 Do you have to wait till you get sick to go there 12:12 or should you go when you are older 12:14 or is okay for young people to go there? No. 12:16 It's okay for young people to go there. 12:18 Actually we talked about peak, 12:19 physical, and mental performance. 12:22 And if you are wanting to reach peak performance 12:24 and also want to age successfully, 12:26 you know, if you are young, 12:28 the chance of new aging successfully 12:30 is less than 10 percent. 12:32 If you go to a program like this 12:33 it goes up to about 80 percent chance 12:35 of successful aging 12:36 and that means you keep your mind, your body, 12:39 and your health past the age of 85. 12:42 Well Dr. Nedley, we're excited about, 12:45 you know, you being out there at Weimar, 12:46 we believe that a lot of good things 12:49 that are going to be happening 12:50 and the team that you pulling together 12:52 and is already there. 12:54 They are just doing great things, 12:56 and we appreciate the Newstart program. 12:59 We hope that you take advantage of. 13:00 Thank you for being with us.
