Speaker 1 (00:25):
Hey, how are you doing. Good morning, everybody, Good morning
on eleven eight. This Monday's going by pretty fast. I
think we got something coming up here real soon. We
got a holiday coming next week, Veterans Day on Tuesday.
I don't know if that means that everybody's going to
get a long weekend. Maybe Monday they'll have Sunday, Monday
and Tuesday. Maybe some people will, maybe some people won't.

(00:49):
But whatever it is, I hope you have a wonderful
time and make sure you have a wonderful holiday Veterans Day.
I'm a veteran, so I appreciate any respected I get.
I thank you for it. This is Grandpa. I want
to welcome to the letter. Grandpa speak the voice of
the fifty plus and all of us. Everybody can get

(01:09):
something out of it. And I'm Grandpa, and I love everybody.
I know. People think, why does he always say that?
Because I do. That's why I say it, because I
love everybody. I don't care what you are and what
you're doing, what you're about, I still love you. I
love you because I know there's good in everybody, and
there is good in everybody, and I love you because

(01:29):
it makes me feel good. To feel that I love everybody.
You know, I've been angry before, and I more or
less have hate before, but I don't ever want to
get it again. Yeah, I don't like them feeling. I
don't like what the way it does for me, how
it messes up my immune system. So I think positive
all the time. I think good. Everything is good, and

(01:52):
people walk up to me and ask me, well, yesterday
I was at this meeting, and of course I don't
know why this always happened to me, but I guess
people are talking behind my back and they'll say, you know,
he's he's ninety five, you know, and so the pointer
has well, sir, can we ask you how old you are? No,

(02:15):
don't ask me nothing. That's where I feel because I
don't live the myths of the age. You know, there's
a myth about old people, and the myth is that
we all want to live a long time. That's our
dream is to get to be an old person. We
want to live a long time, but we don't want

(02:36):
to live in misery the way that a lot of
people do it. And we don't have to. And that's
what our teach on this show every week. It's what
you're thinking. If you're thinking on negative, you're thinking things,
and that's what has to happen in your life because
all of our thoughts are creative. Your thoughts are creative.

(03:00):
That point, your thoughts are creative. So a lot of
things that are happening through you. You're thinking it now.
Not every thought is, but most of the thoughts are,
especially the thoughts that we get with feeling. And we
have to realize that, and we don't realize that. That's
why we keep having all the problems we have. You know,
we have a lot of good part about being a

(03:22):
human being. We need to learn to think different. We
need to have different beliefs. We need to change that
old thing about Grandpa and grandma and Nail too old
and they need to go somewhere and die. They supposed
to stop living because they got old. Well, that's what
we all want is to get old. I'm glad to

(03:42):
live a long time. I want to live a long time,
and I think most people feel the same way. You
want to live a long time, then you got to
prepare yourself so that you can live happy for a
long time. You don't want to talk about I want to
live a long time, and you got all kind of
pains and stuff going on on with you. You want
to be happy, So talk to your doctor. Tell him

(04:05):
what you want. Tell him you want to be happy
and healthy, and I'm sure, and keep your mind on
that and you'll get there. I'll tell you the information
that you may need. As you age, the same change.
They're not the same as when you're young. When you're young, yeah, sickness,
don't nothing bothers you. I remember somebody we were playing

(04:27):
as a kid. I would play football. One guy had
a broken leg. He was out there running on the
broken leg. He had a cast on it. They used
to put a hard cast on it a long time ago,
and you and you could still move around. Well, he
was out there with a broken leg, you know. And
he and and when they took the cast off, he
never stopped. He just kept going. That's what ware more

(04:49):
or less, we have to do. They say a little
child will lead you. Maybe that that's what we got
to pay. But anyway, our interest has changed as we grow.
It's not the same. We don't have the same ideas,
the same interest. When we're young, we be thinking, oh man,
I want to give me a beautiful girl, a beautiful wife.
She's gonna be a beautiful mother. We're gonna have some
beautiful kids, and we're gonna live a wonderful life and

(05:10):
we're gonna raise them up to be wonderful human beings.
That's what we're gonna do, and that's what you feel
good about life. Well, then after that, what happened, Well,
I'm gonna run it down to you. I'm gonna tell
you all the things that we do.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
It.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
The idea first comes in our mind when we're young men,
if you're men and women, I would imaginitude. I can
do anything, I can accomplish anything. I can be anything
I want to be. I can do this, I can
do that, I can do I can do I can
do that. But then it comes some part in your

(05:45):
life as you grow older and older and older, that
idea begins to fade. It does. You begin to fade
and the mind and your confidence gets lost. You start
losing your confidence. It's not losing your confidence because physically
you're changing. Don't deal with that. I mean, you may

(06:07):
not be able to run as fast. I don't run
as much as I do, but I still enjoy life.
I exercise, I get on my bicycle, I ride. I
do whatever I do, but I mean I don't run
as much as I do working that you know, and
after you work on a job for a long time,
as you're aging and things are changing and you're working
on the job for a long time, what happened? The

(06:30):
job gets so it's not fun anymore, and you it's
a job that you love. I've been there already. I
was a cameraman for ABC Television for many years, and
I love that work. I love getting up going to work.
I love traveling. I work wild world or sports, I
work everything, worked all the show. It was wonderful. But
then I reached the point in my life when I

(06:51):
had done it, maybe twenty five or twenty seven years
or something like that, it began just be like more
like routine, and I didn't have my interests in loving
it anymore. So I was ready to retire, and I did.
I'll retired. I'll retire. And you know how that is
all your family agree with you. They want you to
retire too. They want you to retire so you'll be

(07:14):
at home, you be around them, they can be around you.
And you you know, you've been working most of those years,
and you haven't been with your family because a lot
of things that they're doing daily. If you're working, you're
not there, and today mothers and fathers are working, so
they're not there at certain very important missions in a

(07:38):
person life and the children's life too. Is the time
when you might should be there, but our lifestyle is different,
so we're not. But let's get back on the subject
of getting older, because when you get older, these things
that start happening to you, and you have to keep
yourself in your mind together to make sure that you
don't get to be old. As as kids used to say,

(08:01):
you're gonna get you get you're gonna look like a monkey,
or you're gonna get old. You're gonna look ugly when
you get old. Well, a lot of people do, a
lot of people do, but you don't have to a
lot of people. You can be beautiful old as well
as you can be beautiful young. There's a lot of
older people that I see that are just beautiful and

(08:25):
their age, their skin is sad, this is happening, that's happened,
but they carry themself in such a beautiful way. They
look pretty and they look wonderful. You can do that.
They got women seventy years old looking good. They got
men seventy years old looking good and older and they're
looking wonderful. And they've learned how to live life and

(08:45):
learn how to practice how to live life. You have
to learn how to live life. See when you were young,
when you were so busy working, you didn't think about
your life and your physical part of life. You were
thinking about how to make money, how to do be
a profession, how to do is, how to run a business,
how to do all those things, and that took all
your time. But when you get older and you get retired,

(09:07):
you start thinking about yourself then and you realize, I
haven't neglected my health. I have neglected myself and now
I'm going to work to change that. And you can
change it, but you have to believe you can. You
have to think that you can. You think you know
when you get tired, the first thing you do, you
think that you ain't supposed to do anything. The first

(09:28):
day you retire, I did it. I want to sleep late.
I slept late, stept ten thirty eleven o'clock the first day,
and most people do that. It's the first day I'm retired.
I'm not getting up. I'm celebrating. I'm doing this. We
practiced a lot of times the wrong things because it

(09:49):
feels good to us, and that's what the wrong thing
to practice. Just because you're retired don't mean you have
to do nothing all the time, and people do it.
Some people do nothing all day for months on months
at a time. And they're used to getting up, going
to work. They used to having a routine, they used

(10:11):
to having life a certain way. But that's overwood now
they thinking about it, they ain't doing it. So you
begin to dwindle, You begin to go down. They start
happening physically, you start breaking down mentally. You think, I
can't remember this, I don't remember that. Let me tell
you something. You never stopped remembering. Everything is recorded in you,

(10:36):
and it's there. The only thing you did is you hadn't.
You lost your recall. It's the recall because if you
think you didn't remember that, what you don't remember today,
you probably remember it tomorrow. So it's there. You remember tomorrow.
Oh Lord, I throwing to remember this yesterday, but I
didn't and I need but I'm just not remembering it.

(10:57):
But I forgot it, just you know, so we don't
get nothing, So get that in your mind, you and
forgetting nothing. And you realize as you're doing nothing and
you're doing life is going by, and you think I'm
retired and supposed to do nothing. It's because life is boring.
Doing nothing is not a solution. Doing nothing is not

(11:21):
a solution. One more time, if you're retired, you're sixty seventy,
maybe even older than that, there are a lot of
good things that you could do. There are a lot
of good things that you could be doing. There's a
lot of good things that you could if I have
my friend now he's studying to be a child counselor.
He's retired, so that helps him. So he is signed

(11:46):
up with the city Hall, go downtown. They have jobs
and positions and things open like that that you can do.
So now he's going to be a child counselor and
help children that need help. And a lot of these
kids need it. So he's doing something worthwhile and he
looks good. He's healthy, he's moving around and everything. I'm
telling him, when you stop moving, you're in trouble. Don't

(12:08):
do that. Keep interested in life, love living, love yourself,
love it. That's why I say I love everybody. Love
is important. Love yourself. Look at yourself in the morning
and tell yourself, I love you, I love you. Learn
to get into yourself. And when you like yourself, you
know what, that's a wonderful thing. Most people don't care

(12:31):
about themselves. I'm this, I'm broke down, I'm this, I'm that,
I got this, I got no you know, just get
that they're still young. You're still young. Are seventy years old?
Seventy years old? Is doing? Next week, I'm gonna tell
you about something about senior statistics. So make sure you
listen next week when I talk about senior statistics. And

(12:51):
I'm gonna tell you more about the things as you age.
Right now, I'm just telling you through the process that
you're going through now. If you have taken care of
yourself for a long time, you're in good shape. You
did all the right things. If you didn't, if you
were drinking, smoking and doing the things that people do,
you may not be as healthy as you should be.

(13:13):
But it doesn't mean that you can't be healthy. You
can get healthy. You can make you can turn things
around and make your health better. You know. So this
is this I'm not talking about men only. I'm talking
about men and women. They both go through the same thing.
They both work today, they both have the same life
patterns the same today. So all of them need to

(13:35):
think about it. Mama needed to think it and Daddy
need to think it too. They have a lot of
life left in them and they need to learn to
live live that life. They learned to live that life
to see their grandchildren, see their grandchildren grow up. Then
they know how good a father or mother they was
when they see their grandkids. So that's the mindset. So
if you have an interest in life, it's gonna work

(13:57):
for you. If you don't have no interest in life,
it's not gonna work for you because you don't have
no interest in it. What you have an interested in
is what you're getting and maybe not be what you want.
So what's your idea is to get the right things
you want. Some even go back to work. Some people say, look,
I don't want to be sitting here. I got to

(14:17):
do back to work. And that's good. They look good,
they look healthy, They get themselves ready, and they put
it pet yourself because they got to go to work.
So they're gonna make yourself look good. That's how you
singing a lot of seniors look good. And they look
good because and you don't know how old. People don't
talk about how old they are, but there's a lot
of them that are older and were living longer. So

(14:39):
we got to learn new ideas. We've got to know
how to deal with that life that we're living long.
We haven't been there before, so stop and think about it.
Every week, I'm helping you. I'll teach you all that
I can. I'll teach you all whatever. Because people are
always walking in, Oh, I want to be just like
you when I get older, or how do you do this?
How do you do that? And then you tell them

(15:00):
they're just like okay, because you already know it. You
already know everything you should be doing. You're just not
doing it. And what I am, I'm just a reminder.
I remind you, mit teacher, you do it. It's just
common sense, that's all it is. The myth about the
singers is not like it used to be. It's over.
Singers are not over and thrown and need to stop

(15:22):
living just because they got old. They're not they're they're
out of life and all of that. That's not true.
They're getting better. They got a lot to offer and
they probably got a lot to offer more than people
who haven't lived very long. All right, that's what I
want to talk about. So if you get your mindset,
make you realize that what you may be doing is
probably not right, but you're doing it to yourself, whatever

(15:44):
it is. So wherever you are and you're not you're
not happy, change your way of thinking. That's all that is. Okay,
this is a Papa Grandpa, And the next half of
the show, we're gonna talk about eating because a lot
of the eating habits we have to So I'll give
you a lot of point of views about things to

(16:06):
eat and how to stay healthy. How to eat and
stay healthy because a lot of times you don't know
who's that interested in you. Food has gotten to be
contaminated in a lot of ways, and so a lot
of the food we eat it's harm run us as well.
So make sure you stay thrown. I'll be right back.
I'm going to tell you how to live long and
live healthy.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
A ride or right, I'm in the mood for listening
to that good music. God. Anyway, we're going to talk
about eating habits in this. A lot of people like
I say, they don't know the secret to live in good,
to live in long and healthy and they're having all
their vitals and they can no matter how long you live.

(20:42):
We're sexually active, we're all kind of everything human beings are.
They lose They think they lose this, They think they
lost that. No, they haven't lost anything. They have it
only because people think it. People just think because people
would get older. I guess back in the day they
had a misconception they had the wrong idea about life.
So we're gonna talk about eating and some of the

(21:05):
benefits of eating right that will help you to keep
you healthy and we can make your life unerful. And
that's what So I want to listen to me today.
Most of the stuff, like I say, what I talk about,
you already know it. So you may not pay as
much attention. You may not give it as much as
importance as you should. You may think, oh, that ain't

(21:25):
important or that, But that's why you're in the healthy
condition you're in because you say that's not important. That's
your health that I'm talking about. That's your livelihood, your
better way of living. That's your alertness, your activity that
we're talking about. Oh but but then when it happened
to you and you're down down the road, I see
so many people that have graduated to one of them

(21:48):
machines they push. They've graduated to that. You don't need
to be pushing that thing around you think you do,
But that's because that's why you're doing it. So let's
talk about some of the benefits of eating ripe Now,
the benefits for eating fresh fruits and vegetables. It's far

(22:08):
more riching than what people think about it is they're tasty,
they're versatile, and they're packed with all the essential vitamins
and nutrients that you need. That's was it in them
and other nutrients that they have, making them vital to
your healthy lifestyle. Unfortunately, there are downsized to eating fresh fruit.

(22:31):
So if some person may think, oh, I'm eating the
right thing, I'm doing the right thing. But there's a downside,
and that's called pesticides. They have pesticides on it, and pesticide,
in case you don't know, it is a chemical that
is not good for your consumption. That's what it is. Okay,
your fresh det picked berries. You get fresh the picked berries.

(22:53):
I know how that is. Have you been by the
sand go drive by these sands here in California. I
don't know they do it all over, but they're selling strawberries,
and them strawberries that look so good when you get them,
they red, and you get them right, and you got
to take one of them off and you want to
taste it. Sometimes you take one of them off and

(23:13):
you blow it as if that's gonna get the germs
off of it. It's not. It's still on there. That
pesticide is still on there. You're freshet pickberries, honeycup apples, ripe, peaches,
all of that stuff is at risk if you don't
know how to eat it right. And these are the
things that we don't call We can't see the pesticides

(23:34):
on it, but they're on there. They're lurking on the surface,
and they can make you sick. And a lot of
time you don't know how you got sick, or your
doctor don't even know what it is. All you got
it contains the highest levels of pesticide in those particular foods.
And this is what you can do about it to
help you and your family stay safe. And that's what

(23:55):
you want to do. You want to make sure your
family is safe. And so we're gonna talk about the
different things. And one thing we're gonna talk about all
the way through is that you need to wash them.
Do not eat the fruit without washing it. As I
was just saying, sometimes you get that the little container

(24:16):
of strawberries. Strawberries looks so good. I've done it, everybody's
done it. I got it. Let me just taste one
of them. You taste one of them there, then next
thing you know, you taste another one and you haven't
even washed them. You just got them, and you think, well,
that's all right, ain't nothing about them. You didn't feel
nothing cause nothing didn't knock you in the head, or
your mouth didn't turn the wrong, or something else didn't happen.

(24:37):
You thought you ate the strawberry and it was okay,
But you eat all that pesticide on it too. So
that's what you need to think about. Next time you
go around and get some peaches, wait until you get
home and wash them. No, no, let's deal with this here.
They got what they call the Dirty Dozen. And this

(24:58):
was done by an environmental workingm They did all the
testing and all of this on that and they come
up with this article. So current health guidelines recommend it
at least five portions of fruit and vegetables every day.
Did you know that? I didn't know that. I do
eat breakfast fruit. I eat fruit in the morning before

(25:18):
I eat anything else. So if that's the health to somebody,
maybe they can do that. I eat apples, grapes, sometimes bananas,
sometimes watermelonals them, but I eat fruit persons. My idea
about that is this, I don't want to put anything
in my stomach that's harsh but I know fruit can
coat my stomach and fruit is good for me from

(25:39):
fruit is compatible with the human person. So that's what
I use before I do all the other things, before
I take my pills, before I do anything, I know
it's gonna come out right. So if that'll help you
feel better to look better, try that sometime. The serving
size look like seven strawberries or one whole apple. That's
what you need to be. Seven strawberries a whole apple. Now,

(26:03):
that adds up to a lot of fruits and vegetables
that you're eating. Unfortunately, this can also mean ingesting a
lot of pesticide. And that's what I'm trying to get
you to realize. You don't need to be doing that
because if your health is running down, all these stuff
contribute to your bad health. It don't help you because

(26:23):
you think, oh, I was a fresh root. I eat
fresh roulers, but you didn't wash it and it's full
of pesticide. So remember that if you don't properly clean
your produce, pesticide can harm your commune system. It can
harm a whole body. And according to the latest research

(26:44):
from the Environmental Working Group, a select group of produce
has a lot more residue on them than others. And
this group is called the dirty doesn't in the case
for concern. Okay, now, let me tell you what about
this dirty dozen. The dirty dozen of Like strawberries, I

(27:05):
love strawberries, but I don't I haven't been washing them.
But I gotta make sure I wash my strawberries all
the time. I do eat them when I do, when
I bring them home, I do washing. But sometimes, like
I say, I'll eat one on the way home. So
watch your strawberries and you may wash the spinach. Spinach.

(27:28):
You have to wash and wash and wash, because if
you eat spinach, it takes for me. It tastes like
sand is on it. So that's well. I don't care
for spinach because of that reason. Kale Kal is another
something you should eat, and it's very unhealthy for you.
And I fact got a lot of pesticide on it.

(27:50):
And people say kal is really healthy. It is, but
you got to clean it because you know, it's like
back in the day, we used to clean the all
the foods we eat because when they brought them home,
it was from the farming, local farming and everything, and
when they were not corporated farmer corporation wash them, make

(28:10):
them look good and color them up and all that stuff. Well,
back in the day, you used to get money from
from from local farmers and some of the uh, some
of the vegetables or some of the fruits should have
may still have a lot of mud or dirt on them,
and you could take them home and you wash it.
That's where you wash everything back in the day, because
people have a big pot, they've washed all their vegetables,

(28:32):
all this stuff like that. We stop doing that, but
we need to get back to that because now so
much petticizes on them. Collar greens, mustard greens, all of
that should be washed and worse. I do that, and
I know most people to do that. Most people will
wash their greens real good because they're really they don't
want to get the worms in grapes. Grapes need to

(28:52):
be washed. A lot of times I don't wash the grape.
I'm going to pick up a grape, but grapes need
to be washed. Pictures need to be worsed.

Speaker 5 (29:00):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Pears need to be worsed, Nectarines need to be worse.
Apples need to be worse, which one of my favorite
is apples I try to eat apple every day, but
I peel my apples. I don't eat it. I don't
eat the cover. But I thought about somebody said, well,
the skin may have all the ingredients it may have,
but it also got the pesticize on it. I know,

(29:21):
because I know about apples then full of pesticide, because
I read it and I've learned it before. So if
you're eating apples, don't go intown drink, grab the apple
and eat it like that. I mean, you can do it,
but we'll make sure. If you're gonna do it, wash
it off. Wash it off good. I mean you don't
put soap on it, be careful about that, but you

(29:42):
can wash it off real, real good before you before
you eat it. And that let me say, I mean
I gave it a bail pepper and hot pepper. They
also need to be walped. Cherries cherries me. I don't
get a lot of cherries. Every once in a while
I get cherries, but cherries need to be wash. You
need to wash these pool blueberries need to be washed.

(30:04):
Green Beans need to be washed. And let me tell you,
I just cooked the green beans. I like green beans
and the little red potatoes cooked together I like that,
so I just made some of that. Recently. I washed
those greens. I washed those green beans three or four times.
I cut them up, put them in the thing or washington,
put washing them again, put them down. I gave them

(30:25):
three washes to make sure that they had the pesticise
on them, because I don't I'm at these now. Well,
I don't want to be sick at all. I don't
want none of that. And and and I don't even
consider myself as ever getting it. I don't think I'm
never going to be sick like that. First of all,
I have this idea and I saw it. I believe truly,

(30:48):
And this may help a lot of people because, like
I was saying a lot of times, what you're thinking
as well, and my thought is that human beings should
not be sick. We should not be sick. Most of
us come get sick because of what we put into
our mouth. Now I may be a little bit different,
but I am a little bit different. But that's what

(31:10):
I'm trying to see the point I need to get over.
If you're not hearing nothing new, then you're not hearing
nothing that that's worthwhile I'm telling you something new, I'm
telling you something about how I think you could be
healthy and you should and you could stay healthy. And
I'm pretty sure that I'm pretty right. You know. I'm
I come from a medical family. My son's a doctor,

(31:31):
so I get I've had a lot of good things
and and and and you know, I teach all these
things to them. So now here's another part doing doing
Doing the test that they did for the pessive pesticide,
they found pesticide on the crops listed all about on

(31:53):
that Fast twelve. They found out that it was like
ninety had pestid size strawberries, apples, cherries, spinas, nectarines, grapes.
They all tested positive for two or more pesticized, more
than one pesticized on them. So that's what I'm trying
to tell you. Wash it fruit. It's a simple thing.

(32:17):
It's something you might figure out. I don't need to
do that. I ain't got time to do that. I'm
gonna eat it anyway. It don't bother me because you
don't feel nothing right then. But it may take a
little while, three or four weeks of something for them
chemicals work in your body and finally they do something.
By that time, you've forgotten about you been eating the
fruit without washing them, so you don't know how you

(32:40):
got sick. Someone say, well, how'd you get I don't know,
but I'm telling you now, you got sick because you
didn't do the right things for your help. See, we
didn't need to do that all back in the day
because they didn't have a lot of pesticides that they did.
But today fruit vegetables are all grown by law. Large

(33:00):
corporations and these long corporate all large corporations have to
earn money, so they may do things to preserve the food.
They do things to keep the rets. Well we're gonna
talk about that a little bit later, so they do
things a little bit different. That means that nine what

(33:22):
did nine have pesticide? That's twelve of them. But but anyway,
all of them have pesticized. If you purchase the bag
or none of the apples, make sure you be careful.
And I buy my apples in the bag myself, but
I wash each one of them, I take them out
and I'll throw the bag away when it's over, I'll
leave that bag in the refrigerator. Now, the EWG has

(33:44):
been banned by the European Union or Discoveries by them
have been banned by the European Union and the US
Environmental Protection Agents due to health concerns. Now, this alarming
information is called in consumers to wonder how to keep
their families healthy and say it. Well, I'm giving you

(34:06):
one good point. Wash your fruits and vegetables because they're
full of chemicals. So washing pesticides or essensual to the
success of commercial farming. That's what they do. That's how
they do it. The corporations have to do that to
be successful, to bring this beautiful future that you see

(34:29):
when you go in the store. Look all beautiful. Oh man,
it looked not look like you could eat it right then,
But don't do it. Wash it, don't do it. Tell
them that Grandpa told you, don't do it. I'm telling
you again. You know, Grandpa not gonna lead you and
tell you anything wrong. You know that because we love you.

(34:50):
I love you, so I'm not gonna tell you something
wrong that I don't know. I'm telling you what's right.
By reducing these insects and rodents and stuff like that,
they have to chemicals on to stop it. Because you
know how these vegetable rats, all kinds of stuff coming
there and they carry Germans carry a lot of different Germans,
so they use they use the pesticide to keep them away.

(35:13):
That you're granted you're getting you're getting healthy one way,
but you're losing healthy another way. So people very careful
wash your proof. I mean, I keep saying it over
and over, but you got to say it over and
over because people ain't gonna do it. Unless I just
say it over and over and over, I'll get you

(35:33):
one way or the other. You know. However, pesticide residue
remains on many of those crops, even if they've been processed,
even if they've been stocked in a grocery store and
they have water running down on them, they still have
those chemicals on them. It's essential to avoid eating it

(35:54):
and ingesting this stuff and this residue. It's not good
for you. The World Health Organization they who they say
pesticize are potentially toxic for human beings and they can
cause various adverse health effects on you, So make sure
you understand that. And this can include cancer and issues

(36:18):
with the reproduction, immune system or your nervous system. And
that's what you're doing for yourself. So if something happened
to you, you don't know it's come from the chemicals
and not you don't know where it comes from. But
one thing you can do, you can make sure that
it don't come from the chemicals by Washington. So just

(36:39):
while the news are is unfortunate, there are ways to
ensure your produce is clean and safe to eat. So
a lot of them say, well, they do this, they
know that they but I'm telling you it might be
safe to eat, but you better wash it first. So
that's what I'm saying. Cleaning codder cleaning it says rest

(37:03):
a short directing different Washington strategy Washington strategies on pestic
size resid They were removal found that washing the product
uh under. When you wash it, you should wash it
on the running tap water. So say, if you washed
the apple, don't just wash the apple like that and

(37:26):
then put the water. Put it on the running water.
Why because in the running water it takes de erms
on out and down the dream And that's what you want.
You don't want to wash them germs off and they're
on something else, or they're on the counter, or they're
on everything. Wash them and let them germs go down

(37:47):
the drain. That's why you do running water. They recommend
using the brisk if you have a If you can
do your hand, you can do your handle it. I
just cooked collar greens. Uh maybe I don't know, but
maybe sometime ago. But anyway, I washed my collar grin
three times. I wash them and I do my hand

(38:08):
on them, and I do like you say, take your hand,
kind of rub stuff off a little bit and make
them clean. For fern produce like melons, you can even
use a broke or brush on them, on your watermelons
or whatever. I don't I don't know if they put
a lot of pesticide on watermelon. I guess they do.
They got up listed here, so I guess you have
to do it washing running, wash them under running water.

(38:32):
It works. Even the leafy vegetables such as spinders. Put
them and wash them on the running water. And I'm
telling you why they wash it on the running water.
I'm telling you one more time, because you know how
it is. We forget the first time you tell us something.
And we're are seniors, and with fifty plus we might forget.
So I'm telling you two times wash them. I've told

(38:57):
you fifty times maybe so, so did it be clean?
Do not use very hot water. Just use very mild water,
but wash them off running water in the sink. That's
how you're washed them, and they and the water should
be you know, mild water. You know. Don't go out
there and get no hot water washed that. That's gonna
do better. No, don't do that. Do the cold water.

(39:19):
I'll tell you why. Hot expands things and most everything
except of some things have sweat glands. And these sweat
glands when you put heat on them, they open up
and when they cool down they close. So if you

(39:42):
put soap or something more or someone do something else
or some other kind of term on that. The Germans
stays that because they if using hot water to wash it,
the the the the the sweat gland will open up
and it will have solved whatever it is, the water
and everything else. Then when you close up, it will

(40:03):
close up on it and then some of that water
being there and it's contaminated. So be very careful, dude,
like they say, wash it on the plane running water,
So you wash that stuff on down and use mild water.
Don't use hot water now if you don't plan on
eating them, so that the presicize aren't transformed during the

(40:23):
food preparation. That's a different thing. But remember to rinse
the skin of fruits and vegetables, even if you don't
plan to eat them or anyway. Now, the FDA with
the Food Drug Administration recommends avoiding soap. They say, don't
use soap to wash them because something I know. I
remember there was a I saw it on the market

(40:46):
somewhere there was a soap they said to wash soap
for vegetables Washington. I guess they were cleaned or none,
none degradable or whatever it was. It was it was
healthy for you to use. In other words, you know,
but I don't know anything about out there. But like
I said, remember everything has poorsed. Use mild water and
wash it was running water, okay, households the detergent recommended

(41:11):
or not recommended to wash your food, don't do that.
This is because the product, or I just explained it,
the product is poorous and it can't have solve the cleaners.
I already knew that, so I'm give I'm giving it
to you again, and can it can have solved this
stuff and that stuff for being it and then you
eating that, So be careful, you careful. See, those are

(41:34):
the things that we haven't. That's why sometimes we get
older and we don't look right. And this is having it,
and that's having all these little things like that have
been the cause of it. And we don't know it.
And it don't hurt us at the time we're doing it.
You know, it's okay, we feel hey, it's something I'm
doing all right. You know, it don't hurt you. It
hurts you at that time, you know, but as you

(41:57):
live over time, the residue builds up. You know. It's
like that aspirin. You know that people say take an
aspirin every day for your heart gets here. If you
haven't had a heart attack, that's all. It's not for you,
or that rule is not for you. You don't need
to take an aspirin every day. Ask for people who

(42:18):
have had a heart attack to take an aspen everything.
If you take an aspirin every day, and this is
the point I want to get to, what would happen
to you? Is this the aspirin, the aspa. If you
take an aspirin every day, the aspirin has the ability
to store up in your body after a while. Aspirin

(42:41):
stays in your body at least four days after you
take it. So you told us I'm taking an aspirin
every day keep my heart attack away. I guess that's
what you're thinking. Be careful, you know, take an aspen
every day if you'd like to. Every people take assers

(43:01):
because they don't want to have a stroke and all that.
But that's mainly that law is mainly, or that rule
is mainly for people who have had a heart attack.
So I don't know if it's not. It's like it
helps you in case you do having an heart attack.
It's like a blood thinner, and that's what it worked for.

(43:22):
So a lot of time taking, taking or ask ruin
every day you have you have blood thinner. And that
not may not be what you want to do because
your blood will run really easy when you bleed or
blood or whatever, or you can bleed a lot and
you don't want to do that, so be very careful

(43:42):
with that. Okay, all right now, The FDA recommends the
voiding all those soaps I told you that they've been.
You gonna eat a washing do yourself. The FDA produce
a label pre washed and ready to eat. They do that.
I know you've probably seen that. I've seen it too,
an't aves of pre wash ready to eat. I've seen
some free wash. Uh they've cooked them or something like that,

(44:05):
ready to ready to ready to cook or something like that.
So they're supposed to put the label. But I can
tell you this much that I've learned over the years.
You cannot trust all them labels that they put on
the food. They'll put the label this and label that.
In this country, we have at least ten different items
in our food that we should not be eating. You

(44:29):
may not know that, but there's ten things in the
food that is not is it like the red dye.
They just got rid of the red dye. Well we
know ten fifteen years ago not to eat red dye.
It wasn't good for us, but they did it anyway.
And then they got some time that we haven't even
have ar snake in our food. They'll say, well, it's
only a small amount, but we need that much in

(44:51):
there to make the food, preserve it and all this
that and whatever, or to keep the look or whatever
it is. It done. This is what keep the food.
So when people get it. We want food, you know,
they want ambience. They want the food to look good,
They want the food to look nice. You know, you
go till you pick out the best one. You know
you passed this one up. I don't want those. I
want that you look a little food, looked at it.

(45:12):
So that's where they have to their corporation have to
make the food that way so that you buy it,
because you'll buy it that way. But your health is
more important. We are doing the wrong thing. We are
doing something there that's not helping us in a lot

(45:32):
of ways. So on this show, every week, I always
want to tell you something good, something that's that nobody
else is telling you something that will keep you looking
good as long as you can, cause nobody else is
telling you how to look good like me at ninety
five years old. Nobody else is telling you how to
be playing golf or bowling or running or doing whatever

(45:54):
you need to do at that age. Nobody's telling you
that they've already written you off. They were written you
off when you was sixty five. They think you didn't
have nothing els to offer the life. They didn't think
you have nothing else to do in life. The myth
was that hey, look, go sit down, old man, old lady.
You in a way, No you ain't. You ain't in

(46:17):
the way the one that's talking is one that's in
the way, because they ain't doing nothing. When people start
doing that talking about what you ain't doing that, I
mean they ain't doing nothing because that's what they see,
and what they see is what they talk about and
what they talk about. You could always tell them what
a person is thinking about by what they see and
what they talk about and what they come up with.
You can judge them by that. So do that. But anyway,

(46:40):
I'm telling you not just to remember this, follow these
guidelines you need to, cause times have changed. Things ain't
like the same way. You can't get them same vegetables.
Used to pick them off the tree with the worm
in it. They didn't have no sex acides. Where they
had a worm. Used to cut the worm out and
eat the fruit. You can eat the whole fruit because

(47:03):
there was no peticize on it. But today they're are pesticide.
The regular farmers are gone. Food is grown by corporations
and they grow mass food well everybody, and they use
certain chemicals and styling ways of doing the GMO. They

(47:24):
got all kinds of engineered food, chemical food. They're selling
chicken sandwiches. I'm questioning, is that chicken salmonds. How can
you get a chicken make a chicken salmich with all
them bones? If it don't have no bones in it,
I don't eat it. Don't eat it if it don't
have them bones in it, because you're not you're eating

(47:44):
a synthetic chicken. It tastes good and it's all right.
But I don't think I don't know everything, but I
know some things. I know a lot of stuff. But
that's how you have to keep it's what you know.
If you don't know anything, naturally, you're not gonna be
able to live well or do things because you don't know.

(48:06):
That's what happened Back in the day. People didn't know,
so they were dying at forty five fifty five. Now
we're more. We learned. Sixty five we learned more. Seventy
five we learned more. We lived to seventy eight years old.
That's our lifespan now, seventy eight. That's come from about
fifty years old to seventy eight. But why is that?

(48:27):
Because we learn how to live healthier. We don't pay
much attention to it, but that's what we've done. We've
learned how to live healthier. We've learned how to keep
ourselves going. We've learned how to be a senior say
older person and still live life. You know, you don't
need to stop nothing because you got old. Do the

(48:48):
same thing you did when you were young. That's what
I'll say, that's what I advite, and I'll tell everybody
this thing. I'm not letting the old man in my body.
Don't do that. That's my last I I can give you.
Don't let no old man or old woman into your body.
Keep yourself going to what you've done, what you're always doing,

(49:09):
as long as it's not something wrong. And that is
like eating vegetables and fruit but not washing them, so
watch them. It's a grandpa come back every week with
something good for you that can learn, that can benefit you,
that you can use and will make your life better.
That's what grandpa should do, and Grandma's suit and that's

(49:31):
what I do. All right, I'll see you next week.
I love you. Make sure you tune in next week
because I have a great show for you, and I
told you about it earlier, So you want to make
sure you want to listen to me next week because
I'll be talking about senior statistics. Senior statistics which will
open your eyes about you if you pass sixty five

(49:55):
or past fifty plus, so make sure you tune in,
talk to you later, Love you, grand bout
