Longevity is a Lifestyle
The research is so phenomenal in the documenta-tion of the Wolfberry's activity in reversing the aging process, but then being there and talking with these people and seeing how they live and their lifestyle was the convincing part. Folks, that is really what it boiled down to–longevity is a lifestyle.
When I questioned these people about what they felt was the key to their longevity, one of the things everyone said was "being happy." That means if you are happy, you can't be depressed. So if we are going to get out of depression; we have got to change our eating habits; we've got to change some of the things we are doing that cause depression as a result of hormonal imbalance.
More Secrets of Longevity
The next thing–what else do you do for longevity? Drink water–pure water. That is very, very important. Of all these people with their phenomenal longevity I did not find one vegetarian. They all consumed a little meat, but it wasn't a lot of meat. They did not consume beef nor did they consume pork. In fact, the doctor said that pork was a deadly poison to the human body. So just a word of precaution there–do not eat pork.
Adequate vegetables–most of their vegetables they picked out of their own gardens. Wolfberry every single day and their herbal tea–that was their diet. They call it "Eight Treasure Tea." What do you think made up the Eight Treasure Tea? One of the main ingredients was Wolfberries!
. It was just so phenomenal looking at these people–they were so happy. Here they were living in a country that is poverty stricken, living in mud brick houses, some with dirt floors and some with dirt ceilings–conditions that we don't see here in America. But these people were so happy. I said to myself, "Gary, there is a lesson to be learned here from these people. They have a secret we have lost and forgotten, and that is how to be happy in the worst conditions, and how not to get all caught up in trying to keep up with the Joneses and drive a better Cadillac than Suzy Brown. Just simply to be happy with life and to be a reflection of God's creation and allow that energy to flow through them." It was truly wonderful.
Daily Exercise, a Must!
Another thing the doctor said was absolutely true was exercise every day. His routine was walking for three miles in the hills in the morning, stretching and exercising for 45 minutes. Of course, he did this with QiGong, and then he would meditate for a minimum of 20 minutes after his exercise.
I asked him about his meditation–and this was so interesting. Outside of his house there was a round rock. He would sit down at this rock and he would put dirt on it and he would pour water in the dirt and make mud, and then he would draw designs in the mud and just focus on it for 20 minutes. He would totally clear his mind and pull the energy in from the universe and focus and center his body, and then he would go about his day's activity.
He consumed a minimum of seven to eight cups of Eight Treasure Tea per day. Every single person we met and talked to about long age was a consumer of this Eight Treasure Tea–it was very interesting.
Sr. Citizens - A New Way to Walk!
We had another experience that was really fun. We went to another city out from Schwan, and we went to a place that was called "Senior Citizen University." The youngest person in the university was 62 years old, and the oldest person was 98. There were 250 students in this university.
When we walked into the campus I had my camera and was doing the tourist bit, and all of a sudden I noticed a gentleman doing this (walking backwards) and he walked all the way across the campus backwards, turned around, walked all the way back across the campus backwards, and I was watching this. My first reaction was, "Maybe there is more to this Senior Citizen University than what I thought. These are gifted students."
He kept doing it, and pretty soon an elderly lady walked over and joined him and started walking backwards, so I said to Sue, "What are they doing?" She said, "I will go find out, Dr. Young."
She went over there and the gentleman said, "Sure, I'll talk to you, but you have to walk backwards with me." I have my Sue on video walking backwards and talking at the same time!
This was interesting because this man had a damaged disk in his back, and by walking backwards it changes the rotation of the pelvis, decompresses the vertebrae, and allows the body to reabsorb the disk.
Oh, My Aching Back!
All of the students, whether they had a back problem or not, were instructed to walk backwards from 10 to 20 minutes a day because not only did it decompress the spine–but think about it–even if you didn't have a disk problem, what it is doing for the longevity of your spine by walking backwards 20 minutes a day. Decompressing the spine, increasing the circulation, and strengthening the muscles of the lower back. That alone was worth the whole trip to China.
When I got back to the motel that night, my back had been giving me a lot of trouble, which was a chronic problem for me. I was pouring oils on every few minutes, night and morning, and trying to stretch a little bit to take the pressure off the disk and get a little relief from the pain in my legs from the pinched nerve. I got back to my hotel and went in my room, showered, rubbed the oils on, put the Regenolone on my back, and then I went out in the hall and looked around to see if anybody was watching–and I started walking backwards up and down the hall. It was so amazing! I made about 12 trips up and down the length of the long hall and by the sixth turn, the pain stopped! I have been walking backwards ever since!
Try it, You'll Like It!
And so if you wonder why I walk backwards and forwards on the stage, I am having my therapy while I am up here! When you go back to your rooms tonight, it will be so fun to see 1,800 people walking around Salt Lake backwards!
When I came home I shared this with a few of my chiropractor friends, and they said, "Of course, Gary, it will work!" And it does work. I shared it with one of our chiropractors up here in Ogden who had been working on me, and now he has every one of his back patients walking backwards 20 minutes a day! It is so simple.
Make a Self-Evaluation
We must look at all aspects in our lives at how we are going to improve our longevity and keep a healthy spine and a healthy digestive system, keeping balanced hormones, keeping a healthy circulatory system. These are all the factors that are so critical in maintaining the longevity that we desire to have in our lives. The more Wolfberry that you can eat, the greater chance you are going to have of feeding the body the way it should be fed.
