CRANDALL.

BLESSINGS ON YOU.

PAT: THANK YOU, "SIMPLE HEART

QUEUE."

NO. 1 ON AMAZON?

IT IS GETTING THERE.

PAT: WHAT ABOUT HEART

ATTACKS?

YOU HAD ONE OF YOUR OWN, YOU ARE

ARE CARDIOLOGIST, WHAT HAPPENED?

WE ARE ALL ENTITLED TO HAVE

VICTORY IN THIS LIFE.

I HAD AN EVENT OF 48.

IN THE BEGINNING OF A MASSIVE

HEART ATTACK.

I DIDN'T HAVE HEART DISEASE OR

DIABETIC.

I DIDN'T HAVE EXTREME

HYPERTENSION.

I ENDED UP ON THE OPERATING ROOM

TABLE WITH A WIDOW MAKER LESION.

I WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD IF I

HADN'T GONE TO THE HOSPITAL.

THREE MAIN ARTERIES TO THE

HEART, MAIN LAD.

I HAD A BLOCKAGE IN THE VERY

BEGINNING.

IT IS THE MOST DEADLY BLOCKAGE

YOU CAN HAVE IN THE HEART.

YOU CAN HAVE SUDDEN DEATH.

THAT DAY I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL.

I HAD EXTREME PAIN IN MY CHEST.

I COULDN'T WALK, PAT, FROM ONE

END TO THE NEXT WITHOUT HAVING

SEVERE CHEST PAIN AT THE AGE OF

48.

PAT: YOU ARE A CARDIOLOGIST,

DID YOU KNOW YOU HAD THIS?

I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.

THE PAIN WASN'T TYPICAL CHEST

PAIN.

IT WAS SHOULDER PAIN THAT

RADIATED TO THE CHEST AND TOOK

ME 24 HOURS BEFORE I COULD

FIGURE OUT THAT WAS TRULY A

HEART EFFECT.

I WAS A CARDIOLOGIST.

PAT: DID YOU CLABS?

I COULDN'T KEEP WALKING WITH

MY WIFE, DEBORAH.

I SAT ON THE STEPS AND SAID YOU

NEED TO TAKE ME TO THE EMERGENCY

ROOM.

I THINK I AM HAVING AN EVENT.

GET ME THERE QUICKLY.

MY PARTNER THROUGH ME ON THE

OPERATING TABLE.

I COULD SEE THE BLOCKAGE.

I SAID FIX THIS.

I SAID LEAVE THAT ONE ALONE,

I'LL FIX THAT ONE MYSELF, THAT

IS WHAT THIS BOOK IS ABOUT.

PAT: HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE

THESE THINGS?

OVER 500,000 PEOPLE DIE OF A

HEART ATTACK EACH YEAR.

A MILLION AND A HALF PEOPLE

PRESENT TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM

WITH HEART DISEASE?

HEART DISEASE IS THE NO. 1

KILLER.

PAT: "THE SIMPLE HEART CURE,"

HOW DO WE PREVENT IT?

CHANGE OUR LIFE.

THAT DEMANDS A PLANT-BASED DIET.

WE DON'T HAVE TO BE STRICT RIGHT

OUT OF THE SHOOT.

WHICH INCLUDES VEGETABLES AND

FRUIT AND VERY LITTLE MEAT.

THAT IS THE KEY.

LOTS OF STUDIES SAYING IT IS --

IF WE WANT TO REVERSE IT, WE

HAVE TO BE STRICT FOR THE FIRST

SIX MONTHS TO A YEAR AFTER AN

EVENT.

THAT DEMANDS PROPER DIET, PLANT

BASED, EXERCISE WHICH IS WALKING

AN HOUR A DAY, PROPER SLEEP,

EIGHT TO TEN HOURS, LOWER

STRESS.

I AM THE CARDIOLOGIST I WAS UP

AT 2:00 IN THE MORNING INSIDE

SOMEONE'S HEART.

I HAVE A LOT OF STRESS.

I NEEDED TO LEARN HOW TO DEAL

WITH THAT AND FIFTH FAITH IN

GOD, HE IS OUR HEALER AND

DELIVERER.

PAT: LET ME ASK YOU

SOMETHING.

I SEE A GUY TAKE A SCALPEL AND

STARTS CUTTING, WHEN WAS THE

FIRST TIME YOU DID THAT CUTTING

AND WHAT WENT THROUGH YOUR MIND?

FIRST TIME WAS IN THE

BASEMENT AT YALE, UNIVERSITY.

OPERATING ON PIGS AND HEART

TRANSPLANTS.

PIG HEART IS SIMILAR TO THE

HUMAN HEART, BELIEVE IT OR NOT.

THAT WAS MY FIRST TIME AND IN MY

MEDICAL TRAINING, FASCINATING,

CHEST OPENED, HEART BEATING AND

LIFE OF THIS MAN IS THERE AND

START WORKING ON IT.

IT IS LIKE BEING IN AN ORCHESTRA

WE ARE IN CHARGE OF THIS EVENT

AND BRING LIFE INTO THIS PERSON.

I HAVE CARRIED THAT DONOR HEART

ACROSS THE ROOM TO THE OPERATING

TABLE WHERE THAT PATIENT IS THAT

NEEDS THE NEW HEART.

I HAVE CARRIED THAT HEART ACROSS

THE ROOM.

JESUS DOES THE SAME THING, PAT.

HE WANTS TO GIVE US HIS HEART IN

EXCHANGE FOR OUR DAMAGED HEART.

MEDICINE IS CLEARLY GOD.

EVERYTHING I DO SUPPORTS THE

REALITY THAT CHRIST IS REAL, THE

LORD IS REAL.

HE IS THE CREATOR AND DELIVERER.

ANYONE WANTS TO BELIEVE GOD, GO

INTO MEDICINE.

PAT: TALK ABOUT STRESS.

THE WORLD IS IN CHAOS.

EVERYONE COMING IN WITH STRESS

AND ANXIETY.

STRESS IS THE BIGGEST RISK

FACTOR OTHER THAN A TERRIBLE

DIET.

PAT: WHAT IS STRESS?

WE CAN HAVE GOOD STRESS AND

BAD STRESS.

FOR ME IT IS MEETING THE

HELICOPTER.

I ENJOY IT.

BUT THE BODY DOESN'T RECOGNIZE

THAT AS GOOD STRESS, IT

RECOGNIZES GOOD STRESS HERE, BAD

STRESS HERE.

IT ALL COMES HERE, BODY

RECOGNIZES IT AS JUST STRESS.

BLOOD PRESSURE AND STEROIDS GO

UP, ADRENAL GLANDS START FIRING,

ARTERIES START RESTRICTING,

PLATELETS GET STICKY.

ALL THESE THINGS GO INTO BATTLE.

THE HEART IS PREPARING ITSELF

FOR BATTLE, PAT.

WE CAN'T GO THROUGH THIS.

PAT: YOUR PROBLEMS IN THE

STOCK MARKET, MIGHT LOSE YOUR

JOB, YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT

'OBAMACARE' AND POLITICS, ALL

THAT MAKES STRESS?

EVERYBODY IS STRESSED OUT,

THAT IS WHY HEART DISEASE IS

ACCELERATING.

EVERYONE IS IN A STATE OF CHAOS.

PAT: MAKES THEM FAT, TOO.

YOU START RELEASING ADRENAL

STEROIDS AND THEY GO OUT, YOUR

INSULIN LEVEL GOES OUT AND

DEPOSIT FAT INTO TISSUE.

BODY BUILT TO HANDLE STRESS.

ONLY IF YOU ARE RUNNING AWAY

FROM A MOUNTAIN LION.

PAT: ONCE HE LEAVES YOU

ALONE, [LAUGHTER].

WE STAY IN STRESS ALL THE TIME,

DON'T WE?

WE DO.

IT IS NOT GOOD FOR US.

PAT: YOU MENTIONED FIVE

DIFFERENT THINGS THAT KEEP

PEOPLE FROM HEART ATTACKS?

FIVE KEYS WE SPEAK ABOUT IS

PLANT BASED DIET, ONE HOUR OF

WALKING EVERY SINGLE DAY, THE

THIRD IS EIGHT TO TEN HOURS OF

SLEEP.

PEOPLE AREN'T GETTING SLEEP, ON

THEIR COMPUTERS, WATCHING THEIR

TV.

THEIR MIND CAN'T REST, OKAY.

PEOPLE WITH SLEEP APNEA, THEIR

MIND IS SCRAMBLED.

THE PART ISN'T WORKING

CORRECTLY, WE ARE

HYPERSTIMULATING OUR BRAIN.

WE NEED REST.

FIFTH IS FAITH IN GOD.

GO TO GOD, HE WILL DELIVER YOU

AND HEAL YOU.

PAT: WHAT ABOUT FISH OIL?

THERE IS A BIG DEBATE WITH

PROSTATE CANCER AND THINGS LIKE

THAT.

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT STUDY.

IT IS GOOD, PART OF THE

MEDITERRANEAN DIET, I THINK

EVERYBODY SHOULD BE ON 1,000

MILLIGRAMS.

PAT: SALMON?

SALMON IS THE BEST, WILD

SALMON IS THE BEST.

PAT: DO YOU EAT IT EVERYDAY?

I EAT IT COUPLE OF TIMES A

WEEK.

PAT: I HOPE YOU SAY HORSE

BACK RIDING IS KEEPING STRESS

DOWN.

WE HAVE A GREAT MAN THAT

RIDES HORSES.

I WAS WATCHING YOU HOLD THE

REIGNS WITH YOUR FEET AND THAT

IS EXERCISE, PAT?

PAT: YES.

KEEP RIDING.

PAT: WALKING AND STAYING OFF

OF, LIMITING BEEF AND STRESS,

WILL THIS DO IT?

YOU ARE AT RISK FOR HEART

ATTACK.

WHAT ABOUT STATINS?

THEY ARE GOOD IN THE MIDDLE

OF THE BATTLE AND NEED TO WIN.

WE PUT PEOPLE ON STATINS SIX

MONTHS TO A YEAR AND TRY TO

TAPER THEM OFF.

IT IS NOT A LIFE-LONG THING.

PATIENTS ARE OVERWEIGHT,

OVERSTRESSED, NOT EATING WELL.

IT TAKES YEARS AND YEARS TO

COUNSEL THEM TO GET TO A BETTER

LIFE STYLE.

STATINS PART OF THE LIFE STYLE

EARLY ON BUT NOT THE FINAL

FORMULA.

WE'LL WITHDRAWAL THEM OVERTIME.

PAT: HOW ABOUT VITAMINS?

THEY ARE GOOD BUT WE NEED

THEM THROUGH FOOD.

PAT: BEANS?

BEANS ARE GREAT.

IF YOU HAVE THREE CUPS OF BEANS

A DAY IS AS EFFECTIVE AS A

STATIN DRUG IN LOWERING

CHOLESTEROL.

PAT: THERE ARE THINGS IN HERE

THAT I TOTALLY AGREE WITH AND

RECOMMEND IT.

CHAUNCEY IS PRAYING FOR ME TO BE

110.

YOU BELIEVE THAT?

YES.

I'LL LAY HANDS ON YOU RIGHT NOW.

PAT: HE ALREADY HAS.

I AM TRYING TO SETTLE DOWN, YOU

HAVE TO KEEP GOING.

PAT, WE ARE ENTITLED TO

VICTORY, THE LORD HAS GIVEN US

THAT.

WE CAN WALK IT OUT IN GOOD

HEALTH AND WILL GET WELL IN

JESUS' NAME.

PAT: AMEN.

THIS IS A GREAT BOOK ABOUT HOW

TO KEEP YOU HEALTHY.

"THE SIMPLE HEART CURE."

I HAD ATRIA DEFIB LAGS.

YOU HAD IN HER JERRY WEST, GREAT

BASKETBALL PLAYER, WHAT WAS HIS

PROBLEM?

HE HAD ARRHYTHMIA, TOO.

HE HAD SUDDEN DEATH, RIGHT?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS LIKE SYSTEM

OF THE HEART, IT CAN GET SCARS,

AGE, PERFORM INCORRECTLY.

THESE SYSTEMS CAUSE SMALL SPARKS

THAT CAN BECOME VERY ERRATIC AND

GIVE US PROBLEMS OR EVEN SUDDEN

DEATH.

PART OF THAT, TOO, PAT, CAN BE

IMPROVED IF PEOPLE START NOW ON

THIS PROGRAM.

PAT: YOU SEE OVERSEAS, YOU

DON'T SEE THIS?

WE DON'T SEE HEART DISEASE.

THE DISEASE OF THE ELECTRICAL

SYSTEM IS DISEASE OF SMALL BLOOD

VESSEL THAT FEED THE NERVES OR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

IT ALWAYS STARTS IN THE ARTERIES

CALLED ARTERIOLES THAT FEED THE

ELECTRICAL NERVES.

PAT: GREAT.

THE DVD THAT FEATURES DR.

CRANDALL AND JEFF IS CALLED

"DEAD RAISER."

WOW.

TO FIND OUT HOW TO GET

THE DVD

GO TO CBN.COM.

IT IS AVAILABLE ON AMAZON, "THE

SIMPLE HEART CURE."

I APPRECIATE DR. CRANDALL A

DEAR, DEAR FRIEND THAT LOVES THE

LORD.

THANK YOU, PAT.

PAT: GOD BLESS.
