2
00:00:30,198 --> 00:00:31,490
you are in you.

3
00:00:31,532 --> 00:00:33,743
And you can make it
that inner wealth

4
00:00:33,785 --> 00:00:35,703
that turns out to be out
later success.

5
00:00:35,745 --> 00:00:38,748
That's what feels rich
really all about.

6
00:00:44,420 --> 00:00:46,338
Strange because it's
when I was a kid,

7
00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:47,798
everyone always asks me

8
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,508
if I will enter
music like my father

9
00:00:49,550 --> 00:00:52,012
and it becomes like that
repeated questions,

10
00:00:52,053 --> 00:00:54,680
that I almost tried
deliberately

11
00:00:54,722 --> 00:00:57,225
do something different
just for that.

12
00:01:08,487 --> 00:01:11,280
I have worked on many successes
multi-platinum projects

13
00:01:11,322 --> 00:01:12,823
throughout my career.

14
00:01:12,865 --> 00:01:14,408
But this is the most
important project

15
00:01:14,450 --> 00:01:15,993
I've ever experienced
involved with,

16
00:01:16,035 --> 00:01:18,663
mainly because it has
potential to change,

17
00:01:18,705 --> 00:01:21,665
all generations
are better.

18
00:01:21,707 --> 00:01:24,585
More than 60% of children in that group
in low-income areas

19
00:01:24,627 --> 00:01:26,670
like South Central, Los Angeles

20
00:01:26,712 --> 00:01:28,590
grow in
single parent households

21
00:01:28,632 --> 00:01:31,300
and because this rapper
takes excessive influence

22
00:01:31,342 --> 00:01:32,718
in their lives.

23
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,345
They become almost
like the father figure

24
00:01:34,387 --> 00:01:36,305
in the absence of their own father.

25
00:01:36,347 --> 00:01:37,557
So what will happen
if you register

26
00:01:37,598 --> 00:01:39,600
this is very big
influence on health.

27
00:01:39,642 --> 00:01:42,645
Well, I will tell you
the biggest secret of hip-hop.

28
00:01:54,365 --> 00:01:56,910
We are in the middle of
a big transformation.

29
00:01:56,952 --> 00:01:58,912
We watch over us
the whole culture is reborn.

30
00:01:58,953 --> 00:02:01,080
So when we are born again
and we see this nation,

31
00:02:01,122 --> 00:02:03,750
we want to retreat and
see what makes the nation great.

32
00:02:03,792 --> 00:02:06,168
What makes the nation
great always strong,

33
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:07,920
farming system.

34
00:02:07,962 --> 00:02:11,257
And that technology, that's
Expertise is then exploited.

35
00:02:11,298 --> 00:02:14,427
The exploitation is caused
many of us to back off

36
00:02:14,468 --> 00:02:17,013
agriculture and we
make money from food

37
00:02:17,055 --> 00:02:19,348
but we are dealing
with free labor.

38
00:02:19,390 --> 00:02:23,102
Large inequality
that starts,

39
00:02:23,143 --> 00:02:25,103
it makes people very angry.

40
00:02:25,145 --> 00:02:27,273
That makes people very
sad, very frustrated

41
00:02:27,315 --> 00:02:30,527
so here all the problems
come from that, right?

42
00:02:30,568 --> 00:02:34,155
So we go back to
circle, turning backwards.

43
00:02:34,197 --> 00:02:36,157
And I think it's important to note that  we experience this
conversation in the middle

44
00:02:36,198 --> 00:02:38,702
what I believe in
cultural shift

45
00:02:38,743 --> 00:02:40,995
that is happening
in this country.

46
00:02:41,037 --> 00:02:43,540


47
00:02:43,582 --> 00:02:46,625
Transformation in
how we live and eat.

48
00:02:46,667 --> 00:02:50,797
There is a shift
awareness about food,

49
00:02:50,838 --> 00:02:53,633
about taking care of yourself, exercising.

50
00:02:53,675 --> 00:02:55,302
That fact is more
people are concerned about

51
00:02:55,343 --> 00:02:57,428
what they do or don't eat
in the hip-hop community

52
00:02:57,470 --> 00:03:00,640
means you will hear more.

53
00:03:09,857 --> 00:03:12,152
Anyone you like
in pop culture,

54
00:03:12,193 --> 00:03:13,903
if they are not on the health path,

55
00:03:13,945 --> 00:03:17,490
they are someone in them
ears now when we talk

56
00:03:17,532 --> 00:03:20,243
tell them, you are better
get a health path,

57
00:03:20,285 --> 00:03:21,827
Because it's what poppin.

58
00:03:21,868 --> 00:03:26,958
Look outside, don't be blind.

59
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,375
And the people
realize it.

60
00:03:28,417 --> 00:03:30,378
The more we push it, the more we can get it out there.

61
00:03:30,420 --> 00:03:31,837
Instead of saying
people, let's show people.

62
00:03:31,878 --> 00:03:33,632
Show you
work every day.

63
00:03:33,673 --> 00:03:35,633
Show what people
you eat every day.

64
00:03:35,675 --> 00:03:37,968
You show someone else,
when you are on the red carpet,

65
00:03:38,010 --> 00:03:40,095
You show people behind
scenes and do videos...

66
00:03:40,137 --> 00:03:44,183
shows a bastard when you
at the gym for two hours.

67
00:03:44,225 --> 00:03:47,520
Hip-hop really is a reflection of the ordinary people.

68
00:03:47,562 --> 00:03:50,315
This is a reflection of what happened in cities in

69
00:03:50,357 --> 00:03:53,150
from America and now
American suburbs too.

70
00:03:53,192 --> 00:03:56,237
I think as an artist, we can take responsibility to say,

71
00:03:56,278 --> 00:03:58,238
this is my lifestyle
and people start

72
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,615
lean towards it.

73
00:03:59,657 --> 00:04:01,658
These artists become
a healthy lifestyle,

74
00:04:01,700 --> 00:04:04,037
this artist actually
becomes yoga.

75
00:04:04,078 --> 00:04:07,248
And this artist, you know, is actually a vegetarian.

76
00:04:07,290 --> 00:04:08,792
You know, when you find it
everything, you are like,

77
00:04:08,833 --> 00:04:11,710
that human being flies,
and they do that?

78
00:04:11,752 --> 00:04:13,755
I am with that.

79
00:04:19,927 --> 00:04:22,680
You have this big Southern
migration going on,

80
00:04:22,722 --> 00:04:24,140
like in your twenties,
African-Americans

81
00:04:24,182 --> 00:04:26,892
moving out of the South,
escaping from the Ku Klux Klan,

82
00:04:26,933 --> 00:04:28,393
they come to urban areas.

83
00:04:28,435 --> 00:04:29,895
They no longer want to farm.

84
00:04:29,937 --> 00:04:32,315
They want city jobs,
so it creates a system.

85
00:04:32,357 --> 00:04:34,483
But it's not just us
stop farming,

86
00:04:34,525 --> 00:04:36,735
it creates a system where
we no longer eat

87
00:04:36,777 --> 00:04:39,905
the way we eat like that
farmers for profit and as farmers.

88
00:04:39,947 --> 00:04:42,117
We no longer sit
at the shared table.

89
00:04:42,158 --> 00:04:44,743
And so South
migration takes us forward,

90
00:04:44,785 --> 00:04:46,120
but also brings us back.

91
00:04:46,162 --> 00:04:48,580
Whatever you go to, you know what you get.

92
00:04:48,622 --> 00:04:50,290
You have a liquor store,
you understand, you know...

93
00:04:50,333 --> 00:04:51,583
- Chicken shop
- McDonald & apos; s.

94
00:04:51,625 --> 00:04:53,002
Chicken shop.
- Yes
fried chicken shop.

95
00:04:53,043 --> 00:04:54,587
Basically, that's the concept of dessert  is when you don't have
access to fresh products

96
00:04:54,628 --> 00:04:57,673
in like one for
seven mile radius.

97
00:04:57,715 --> 00:04:59,467
And there are a lot of
_ environments throughout America  where people don't have it.

98
00:04:59,508 --> 00:05:02,345
It will be almost
impossible for them

99
00:05:02,387 --> 00:05:03,595
to get their hands
on fresh products.

100
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:04,930
It adds anther
layers of difficulty

101
00:05:04,972 --> 00:05:07,558
in trying to stay healthy
when everything you see around you

102
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,768


103
00:05:09,810 --> 00:05:11,562


104
00:05:11,603 --> 00:05:17,068
are beer and cigarettes
and chips and fast food.

105
00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:18,695
Grow in Brooklyn,
type of food

106
00:05:18,737 --> 00:05:21,322
I eat a lot of fried foods.

107
00:05:21,363 --> 00:05:23,742
Deep fried
chicken, fried fish.

108
00:05:23,783 --> 00:05:27,620
Pork, fried
platano maduros or tostones

109
00:05:27,662 --> 00:05:30,540
or fried chicken or fried steak.

110
00:05:30,582 --> 00:05:33,458
McDonald, Jack in
Boxes, cakes and milk,

111
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,462
like I will eat it
for dinner sometimes.

112
00:05:35,503 --> 00:05:37,505
Mac and cheese,
lots of pasta,

113
00:05:37,547 --> 00:05:39,673
fried chicken, potatoes
chips, cookies.

114
00:05:39,715 --> 00:05:42,968
Wings or you know a
egg or chips,

115
00:05:43,010 --> 00:05:44,262
whatever is on the boulevard.

116
00:05:44,303 --> 00:05:46,888
Many African-Americans
believe that

117
00:05:46,930 --> 00:05:49,058
they eat badly and
are theirs.

118
00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:53,062
We are used to eating
well-seasoned foods,

119
00:05:53,103 --> 00:05:54,938
foods that taste good.

120
00:05:54,980 --> 00:05:56,898
Back to slavery
days, you know,

121
00:05:56,940 --> 00:05:58,483
they have to make it
dishes come out of food

122
00:05:58,525 --> 00:06:02,028
that the general population
do not want to eat.

123
00:06:02,072 --> 00:06:04,365
The top of turnips, you
know green turnips,

124
00:06:04,407 --> 00:06:06,242
and the top of mustard.

125
00:06:06,283 --> 00:06:09,328
They learn how to make the best of

126
00:06:09,370 --> 00:06:13,373
all imperfect conditions.

127
00:06:13,415 --> 00:06:14,875
- This goes back to slavery day.

128
00:06:14,917 --> 00:06:16,710
When they will come out
the fields pick corn,

129
00:06:16,752 --> 00:06:18,212
that they
will eat.

130
00:06:18,253 --> 00:06:19,588
Pieces and items and
for corn bread from it.

131
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:21,257
So now only a part of it
Southern culture.

132
00:06:21,298 --> 00:06:23,508
I used to eat
feet of chitlins and pork.

133
00:06:23,550 --> 00:06:25,010
I don't know what
they are, I'm still small.

134
00:06:25,052 --> 00:06:26,553
And that's good, you know
you only eat and only...

135
00:06:26,595 --> 00:06:28,013
You don't know better, that's what you mentioned

136
00:06:28,055 --> 00:06:29,640
and then one day I walk
in my mother's kitchen

137
00:06:29,682 --> 00:06:31,725
and he cleans
chitlin and I'm like,

138
00:06:31,767 --> 00:06:33,685
what is the smell and he
like, this is chitlin.

139
00:06:33,727 --> 00:06:35,480
And I like, what is that,
explain to me what this is.

140
00:06:35,522 --> 00:06:37,190
And he, be it
pig intestine.

141
00:06:37,232 --> 00:06:38,690
You never said that to me before.

142
00:06:38,732 --> 00:06:39,817
In the South no
people think that

143
00:06:39,858 --> 00:06:41,360
You should be vegan,

144
00:06:41,402 --> 00:06:44,072
You should eat
fried chicken and fried foods

145
00:06:44,113 --> 00:06:47,158
and pork and all that,
that's what we grow up.

146
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,658
Grow in
Texas is rather difficult

147
00:06:48,700 --> 00:06:50,578
when everyone in the whole country is trying to get you

148
00:06:50,620 --> 00:06:52,413
becomes bigger, you know.

149
00:06:52,455 --> 00:06:54,373
Oh you are big, oh you will
be a great soccer player.

150
00:06:54,415 --> 00:06:55,415
That's what they
tell you, you know?

151
00:06:55,458 --> 00:06:57,543
They don't say, bad people,

152
00:06:57,585 --> 00:06:59,337
You are rather big for
11, 12 years old.

153
00:06:59,378 --> 00:07:01,047
They say, aw, you will be a big soccer player.

154
00:07:01,088 --> 00:07:02,632
They encourage you to become bigger.

155
00:07:02,673 --> 00:07:06,218
The food is always a
a big problem for our family.

156
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:08,262
If you cry, your grandmother
offers you something to eat.

157
00:07:08,303 --> 00:07:09,597
You want some cakes,
do you want cookies?

158
00:07:09,638 --> 00:07:11,390
Food is always
an important part

159
00:07:11,432 --> 00:07:13,058
African-American culture.

160
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:14,560
You know me
Grandma always says

161
00:07:14,602 --> 00:07:16,395
if we can do it
anything for others,

162
00:07:16,437 --> 00:07:18,397
we can give them
something to eat.

163
00:07:18,438 --> 00:07:21,900
They feel like they are showing
someone likes to feed them.

164
00:07:21,942 --> 00:07:24,320
So especially if
you are a fat kid,

165
00:07:24,362 --> 00:07:26,738
everyone wants to get you
the good side of the family

166
00:07:26,780 --> 00:07:29,075
and every house you visit
they give you more treats

167
00:07:29,117 --> 00:07:30,408
and more treats and more treats.

168
00:07:30,450 --> 00:07:31,952
Hey, I'm a little
ice cream for you.

169
00:07:31,993 --> 00:07:34,580
My mother has diabetes, so
I should know better.

170
00:07:34,622 --> 00:07:37,417
But for whatever reason
I have the sweetest teeth

171
00:07:37,458 --> 00:07:38,750
known to humans.

172
00:07:38,792 --> 00:07:40,210
- We are filled with carbohydrates.

173
00:07:40,252 --> 00:07:44,923
We will have four cans
Red bean planters with skin

174
00:07:44,965 --> 00:07:47,635
and four giant sticks
Mr. Goodbars.

175
00:07:47,677 --> 00:07:50,303
And then we send
out for number four

176
00:07:50,345 --> 00:07:52,598
Chicken Roscoe and Waffles.

177
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,142
Being here
industry isn't really

178
00:07:55,183 --> 00:07:56,602
being health conscious.

179
00:07:56,643 --> 00:07:58,562
You know when you
travel from city to city,

180
00:07:58,603 --> 00:08:00,063
three o'clock in the morning is the time when

181
00:08:00,105 --> 00:08:02,065
You can get food,
like Waffle House

182
00:08:02,107 --> 00:08:04,193
to be like a mainstay.

183
00:08:04,235 --> 00:08:05,737
And IHOP is a mainstay.

184
00:08:05,778 --> 00:08:07,488
My next studio
door to 7-Eleven,

185
00:08:07,530 --> 00:08:09,365
so when it's 3:00 a.m., 4:00 a.m., 4:00 a.m.,

186
00:08:09,407 --> 00:08:11,283
You will go
there to get Funyuns,

187
00:08:11,325 --> 00:08:13,077
and you know Welch

188
00:08:13,118 --> 00:08:13,995
soda wine  and then we come
back there

189
00:08:14,037 --> 00:08:15,245
and smoking and all that.

190
00:08:15,287 --> 00:08:17,080
You eat before
you go to the show.

191
00:08:17,122 --> 00:08:19,208
You might eat on the show,
Because now you're hungry,

192
00:08:19,250 --> 00:08:21,793
You build appetite
run on stage.

193
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:23,212
Then from there, you smoke.

194
00:08:23,253 --> 00:08:24,297
Then from the time you smoke,

195
00:08:24,338 --> 00:08:25,548
You will go to a party after that.

196
00:08:25,590 --> 00:08:27,633
Drink like five
bottles of Rosé.

197
00:08:27,675 --> 00:08:28,968
You may not realize
at that time

198
00:08:29,010 --> 00:08:30,637
because you are young and
you move

199
00:08:30,678 --> 00:08:32,222
and you still train your body.

200
00:08:32,263 --> 00:08:35,140
But as you get older,
you sit more.

201
00:08:35,182 --> 00:08:36,933
All of that
goes into effect

202
00:08:36,975 --> 00:08:38,768
when you really sit
and you see yourself,

203
00:08:38,810 --> 00:08:41,480
good damn, get
a little belly.

204
00:08:41,522 --> 00:08:43,983
You don't see it for yourself until someone starts telling you.

205
00:08:44,025 --> 00:08:46,235
Before you Lil Cease,
three years later people go,

206
00:08:46,277 --> 00:08:47,987
yo, what's the fat kid?

207
00:08:48,028 --> 00:08:49,988
This is interesting because
rap is a genre like that

208
00:08:50,030 --> 00:08:53,158
where he eats
delicious food.

209
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,660
That's what was discussed,

210
00:08:54,702 --> 00:08:57,997
like when you can make it
money, it's like, I'm eating.

211
00:08:58,038 --> 00:09:00,123
It's like a rap slogan.

212
00:09:00,165 --> 00:09:03,168
And if you eat,
you become fat.

213
00:09:03,210 --> 00:09:04,670
That's one of the statements
that you hear people say,

214
00:09:04,712 --> 00:09:06,838
you become fat
when I leave.

215
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,715
You know what I mean,
it's like a mafia thing.

216
00:09:08,757 --> 00:09:12,093
I really took a lot of
proud of being a fat guy

217
00:09:12,135 --> 00:09:15,890
and I hug the picture
and the name Fat Joe.

218
00:09:15,932 --> 00:09:17,350
You know we have
things like this,

219
00:09:17,392 --> 00:09:19,018
more successful like us,

220
00:09:19,060 --> 00:09:22,062
we think we are better
because we can eat more.

221
00:09:22,103 --> 00:09:23,855
We are like a fat society.

222
00:09:23,897 --> 00:09:25,608
- When Paul and I first met,

223
00:09:25,650 --> 00:09:29,028
he will eat it
and everything.

224
00:09:29,070 --> 00:09:30,988
My highest weight is 320 pounds.

225
00:09:31,030 --> 00:09:33,657
That's when I too
were ashamed to scale up,

226
00:09:33,698 --> 00:09:36,577
After that, my friend, I don't increase the scale no longer.

227
00:09:36,618 --> 00:09:38,120
This is where I am 320.

228
00:09:38,162 --> 00:09:39,663
You know it's embarrassing
when you board a plane

229
00:09:39,705 --> 00:09:42,583
and you must ask
seat belt extenders.

230
00:09:42,625 --> 00:09:44,668
No one wants to do that
, it's not playa,

231
00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:45,920
do you know what I'm saying?

232
00:09:45,962 --> 00:09:46,878
That's not easy
all if you have to ask

233
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,005
for seat belt extenders.

234
00:09:48,047 --> 00:09:49,423
And I will only think, man,

235
00:09:49,465 --> 00:09:52,343
if I die just because there is
fat and fall out.

236
00:09:52,385 --> 00:09:54,678
I don't think
we will live more than 35 years.

237
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:55,595
I really don't.

238
00:09:55,638 --> 00:09:56,847
Charlie Parker dies at age 35,

239
00:09:56,888 --> 00:09:58,890
Our idol is not
for you to know.

240
00:09:58,932 --> 00:10:00,142
One of the saddest
days of my life

241
00:10:00,183 --> 00:10:01,643
when he dies.

242
00:10:01,685 --> 00:10:02,895
He has a heart attack.

243
00:10:02,937 --> 00:10:05,773
He died too young, he was very talented.

244
00:10:05,815 --> 00:10:08,567
Like one of them
the biggest rapper ever  and besides that I lost one
best friend and brother.

245
00:10:08,608 --> 00:10:11,903
He is always big.

246
00:10:11,945 --> 00:10:14,407
And uh, also like to eat.

247
00:10:14,448 --> 00:10:17,117
You know and he eats
all things are wrong

248
00:10:17,158 --> 00:10:18,910


249
00:10:18,952 --> 00:10:24,417
Kentucky Friend Chicken,
lots of Chinese food.

250
00:10:24,458 --> 00:10:25,710
Big Pun is one of them
the biggest rapper in the game

251
00:10:25,752 --> 00:10:31,173
but he can't really
move like that.

252
00:10:31,215 --> 00:10:33,008
He is very big where if
we walk past the hotel,

253
00:10:33,050 --> 00:10:35,845
he will run out of breath
before we enter his room.

254
00:10:35,887 --> 00:10:39,515
If we do a show, we will do it
make sure we do all the words

255
00:10:39,557 --> 00:10:41,100
to make sure he can breathe.

256
00:10:41,142 --> 00:10:46,480
It's just a sad human being, hers
health deteriorates.

257
00:10:46,522 --> 00:10:48,107
And we try humans and he
only gets that weight

258
00:10:48,148 --> 00:10:50,525
and before you know the
, he died.

259
00:10:50,567 --> 00:10:53,445
I should have learned then, but
you know I'm young,

260
00:10:53,487 --> 00:10:54,988
I'm still wild.

261
00:10:55,030 --> 00:10:56,573
I still think, you
know, it's like that.

262
00:10:56,615 --> 00:11:01,912
You know I feel depressed
two years and I don't care.

263
00:11:01,953 --> 00:11:03,580
I start eating
a lot and drink

264
00:11:03,622 --> 00:11:08,127
and fair, then
I just got big.

265
00:11:08,168 --> 00:11:09,920
That wasn't until lately

266
00:11:09,962 --> 00:11:12,715
I lost a lot of me
friends became overweight.

267
00:11:12,757 --> 00:11:14,758
They are caught in the heart
attack, everything.

268
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,262
And just last year I
lost like six, seven friends.

269
00:11:18,303 --> 00:11:21,640
Young children, 34,
32, are all overweight.

270
00:11:21,682 --> 00:11:24,602
You know, and this is all
good people, and funny people,

271
00:11:24,643 --> 00:11:27,103
and make you laugh and
the coolest and you never think

272
00:11:27,145 --> 00:11:32,192
they will die and they
are all too young.

273
00:11:49,377 --> 00:11:50,878
The first time I heard
D the weight passed,

274
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,505
that just surprised us,
still somewhat surprised us.

275
00:11:53,547 --> 00:11:54,673
Just try to come
to overcome it.

276
00:11:54,715 --> 00:11:55,883
- This is too fast.

277
00:11:55,925 --> 00:11:58,593
He is too young and
doesn't make sense.

278
00:11:58,635 --> 00:11:59,928
That doesn't matter
how old are you,

279
00:11:59,970 --> 00:12:02,305
You should
check yourself,

280
00:12:02,347 --> 00:12:04,433
You have to take care of yourself.

281
00:12:04,475 --> 00:12:06,518
That is the most important
to maintain your health

282
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:10,688
from the start because you
wake up there in the age of

283
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:12,650
and you get all these problems,

284
00:12:12,692 --> 00:12:14,152
and at some point
the point is too late.

285
00:12:14,193 --> 00:12:17,278
The age of people
dies more and more

286
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:18,738
younger and younger.

287
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:24,077
We cannot assume that we are
young promised tomorrow.

288
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,538
So this is a day to really
reflect on a great young man.

289
00:12:26,580 --> 00:12:29,875
He is inspiring, he is a friend, he is a brother.

290
00:12:29,917 --> 00:12:31,460
He is a real man,
he will be missed

291
00:12:31,502 --> 00:12:32,753
but he will be remembered.

292
00:12:32,795 --> 00:12:34,505
That is an extension of
about who he is.

293
00:12:34,547 --> 00:12:38,342
It's love and lots
joy, lots of tears,

294
00:12:38,383 --> 00:12:39,593
but tears filled with joy.

295
00:12:39,635 --> 00:12:41,970
That's why I like
Heavy D because of Heavy D,

296
00:12:42,012 --> 00:12:44,807
he puts love and family
first and foremost.

297
00:12:44,848 --> 00:12:46,892
Weight do it and he
is it like a king.

298
00:12:46,933 --> 00:12:49,102
You know he feels it
is very important

299
00:12:49,145 --> 00:12:51,563
to give a positive
message in the music

300
00:12:51,605 --> 00:12:53,315
and he always sticks to it.

301
00:12:53,357 --> 00:12:54,608
His love is still alive
in all of us

302
00:12:54,650 --> 00:12:56,693
that is touched,
influenced by it.

303
00:12:56,735 --> 00:13:00,030
I think those who are influenced by it,
bring love.

304
00:13:00,072 --> 00:13:01,573
This allows him to live forever.

305
00:13:01,615 --> 00:13:03,450
We will talk about it
something called barbecue

306
00:13:03,492 --> 00:13:05,160
and what is the barbecue
represented come

307
00:13:05,202 --> 00:13:06,453
to place in life
where we don't need to do it

308
00:13:06,495 --> 00:13:12,250
worry about bills and
health and all that.

309
00:13:12,292 --> 00:13:14,378
He goes to barbecue
faster than me.

310
00:13:14,420 --> 00:13:15,503
But that's where
he is now,

311
00:13:15,545 --> 00:13:16,880
so he will be missed...

312
00:13:16,922 --> 00:13:19,048
uh, very missed.

313
00:13:19,090 --> 00:13:21,427
- Hip-Hop loses weight.

314
00:13:21,468 --> 00:13:23,595
Do you see this?

315
00:13:23,637 --> 00:13:25,055
Yo it's
the craziest man,

316
00:13:25,097 --> 00:13:27,473
Heavy D inspires me, I mean,

317
00:13:27,517 --> 00:13:28,850
to the highest level.

318
00:13:28,892 --> 00:13:32,563
He is a big person like me, he likes those girls,

319
00:13:32,605 --> 00:13:34,190
he likes to fly.

320
00:13:34,232 --> 00:13:37,442
We never saw big men
flies dressed like that before,

321
00:13:37,483 --> 00:13:39,278
dancing and having fun like that.

322
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,363
Only a classy man, standing
guys, beautiful people

323
00:13:42,405 --> 00:13:46,285
and that's really,
really, very sad.

324
00:13:51,290 --> 00:13:53,125
This childhood obesity
epidemic now

325
00:13:53,167 --> 00:13:55,878
our nation's cost is around 15
billion dollars a year.

326
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,632
Adult obesity in
America costs upwards

327
00:13:59,673 --> 00:14:01,633
150 billion dollars a year.

328
00:14:01,675 --> 00:14:03,010
You know when I speak
for pediatricians

329
00:14:03,052 --> 00:14:04,887
who were trained in
sixties and seventies,

330
00:14:04,928 --> 00:14:06,722
they told me that
they never studied

331
00:14:06,763 --> 00:14:09,558
how to handle diabetes,
because they don't need to do it.

332
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,227
Children don't have diabetes.

333
00:14:11,268 --> 00:14:13,228
At that time, type II
diabetes is called.

334
00:14:13,270 --> 00:14:15,647
adult onset slow diabetes.

335
00:14:15,688 --> 00:14:18,358
And your grandmother or
Your elders will all go

336
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,443
to doctors at some point
in their lives and find out,

337
00:14:20,485 --> 00:14:22,195
oh, you have diabetes.

338
00:14:22,237 --> 00:14:24,030
Now we have
children in attendance

339
00:14:24,072 --> 00:14:26,575
adult disease at this time point.

340
00:14:26,617 --> 00:14:28,452
If a child
is overweight or obese,

341
00:14:28,493 --> 00:14:31,872
they are 30-40% more likely to suffer from diabetes

342
00:14:31,913 --> 00:14:34,708
in their lives, have
hypertension in their lives,

343
00:14:34,750 --> 00:14:36,168
have a stroke in their lifetime,

344
00:14:36,210 --> 00:14:38,337
suffer from heart disease
in their lives.

345
00:14:38,378 --> 00:14:41,882
As a Surgeon General
I have a challenge

346
00:14:41,923 --> 00:14:44,217
being an American doctor.

347
00:14:44,260 --> 00:14:46,262
One of the fields we
note where there is

348
00:14:46,303 --> 00:14:49,807
disparities exist in
minority populations.

349
00:14:49,848 --> 00:14:52,852
African-Americans and
Hispanics, Native Americans,

350
00:14:52,893 --> 00:14:55,853
things like
obesity and obesity,

351
00:14:55,895 --> 00:14:58,607
diabetes and
hypertension and stroke.

352
00:14:58,648 --> 00:15:00,067
This population
is the fastest growing

353
00:15:00,108 --> 00:15:01,777
population in this country.

354
00:15:01,818 --> 00:15:04,280
So the fastest growing population
in this country

355
00:15:04,322 --> 00:15:07,532
life suffers more and has
younger potential for death

356
00:15:07,573 --> 00:15:09,535
of other populations
in our country.

357
00:15:09,577 --> 00:15:11,370
If you are
African American,

358
00:15:11,412 --> 00:15:14,873
You almost double
tend to suffer strokes

359
00:15:14,915 --> 00:15:17,167
rather than your Caucasian
colleagues.

360
00:15:17,208 --> 00:15:20,045
In this country, there are
75 million children, okay?

361
00:15:20,087 --> 00:15:22,882
23 million of them
overweight or obese

362
00:15:22,923 --> 00:15:24,132
at this point in time.

363
00:15:24,173 --> 00:15:26,177
That's one third
across the board.

364
00:15:26,218 --> 00:15:28,970
If they are African-American,
born after 2000,

365
00:15:29,012 --> 00:15:30,347
two of three.

366
00:15:30,388 --> 00:15:32,557
If they are Latin,
2 out of three.

367
00:15:32,598 --> 00:15:34,602
- But if this trend continues,

368
00:15:34,643 --> 00:15:37,478
this can be the first
generation of children,

369
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,607
not to live long
as their parents.

370
00:15:46,613 --> 00:15:49,742
spiritual nature
evolution is very simple.

371
00:15:49,783 --> 00:15:51,660
Like being on a train,

372
00:15:51,702 --> 00:15:53,703
and you go up to the city

373
00:15:53,745 --> 00:15:56,082
and you know the place
You will go downtown.

374
00:15:56,123 --> 00:15:58,458
You have to get out
train, go to the other side

375
00:15:58,500 --> 00:16:00,377
and go the other way.

376
00:16:00,418 --> 00:16:02,713
And that's an individual choice,

377
00:16:02,755 --> 00:16:04,673
because everyone on
trains goes the wrong way.

378
00:16:04,715 --> 00:16:06,050
You have to get
fuck with the train

379
00:16:06,092 --> 00:16:07,258
and go the other way.

380
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:08,927
And then make choices
from inside out

381
00:16:08,968 --> 00:16:10,178
rather than outside.

382
00:16:10,220 --> 00:16:11,888
We don't need to do it
must be a sheep.

383
00:16:11,930 --> 00:16:13,223
We don't have to be like that
all these things,

384
00:16:13,265 --> 00:16:15,808
but each individual has
to make that choice.

385
00:16:15,850 --> 00:16:17,268
If you don't make it
your own choice,

386
00:16:17,310 --> 00:16:18,603
it won't work.

387
00:16:18,645 --> 00:16:20,438
Because they will make it
a choice for you.

388
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,858
I will eat it,
fat, uncomfortable,

389
00:16:23,900 --> 00:16:25,110
and you eat it, and
you get a little high

390
00:16:25,152 --> 00:16:26,612
but then what do you do?

391
00:16:26,653 --> 00:16:28,655
Finally you feel ill
and fat and weighted.

392
00:16:28,697 --> 00:16:30,448
You go out, you sniff
coke and you drink

393
00:16:30,490 --> 00:16:31,450
and you think you're having fun

394
00:16:31,492 --> 00:16:32,868
and you wake up in the morning

395
00:16:32,910 --> 00:16:35,078
with extreme headaches
and then almost all day

396
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,288
You try
clean your head

397
00:16:36,330 --> 00:16:39,248
and then you return
and do the same thing.

398
00:16:39,290 --> 00:16:41,877
Paul Wall, he loses it at one point,

399
00:16:41,918 --> 00:16:43,087
I will not lie.

400
00:16:43,128 --> 00:16:44,505
Paul looks great.

401
00:16:44,547 --> 00:16:46,382
I always teased
Paul, every time I saw him,

402
00:16:46,423 --> 00:16:49,133
I like, wow,
you become fat,

403
00:16:49,175 --> 00:16:50,635
You will get out of there.

404
00:16:50,677 --> 00:16:53,138
I began to pay attention to
promethazine in the studio

405
00:16:53,180 --> 00:16:55,473
all the time, inhale drinking,

406
00:16:55,515 --> 00:16:57,142
they are mixing it
different ways.

407
00:16:57,183 --> 00:16:59,645
It's like the medicine
choice in the studio.

408
00:16:59,687 --> 00:17:02,397
The more he sips, the more
he drinks, the bigger he is.

409
00:17:02,438 --> 00:17:05,108
The syrup only tears
your metabolism,

410
00:17:05,150 --> 00:17:08,070
Because it slows your heart
lowers your level, slows your body

411
00:17:08,112 --> 00:17:12,032
and that makes you sleep,
and makes you feel dizzy.

412
00:17:12,073 --> 00:17:14,660
You know after 10 plus
years of drinking it,

413
00:17:14,702 --> 00:17:16,162
I am very slow.

414
00:17:16,203 --> 00:17:17,997
Paul Wall, that's all he drinks.

415
00:17:18,038 --> 00:17:19,748
When I made the song "Grillz,"

416
00:17:19,790 --> 00:17:23,543
he is the one who gave
I think my first is slim.

417
00:17:23,585 --> 00:17:26,797
He explained
me, what is the syrup

418
00:17:26,838 --> 00:17:29,508
and soda can help me.

419
00:17:29,550 --> 00:17:30,967
He is like, JD if you
pay attention to all the dudes

420
00:17:31,008 --> 00:17:34,178
it's leaning and drinking
this, they're all big.

421
00:17:34,220 --> 00:17:36,223
And he doesn't try
to get that big,

422
00:17:36,265 --> 00:17:37,933
but if you stay at that speed,

423
00:17:37,975 --> 00:17:39,392
You will definitely get there.

424
00:17:39,435 --> 00:17:41,395
You will see people here,
who inhale the syrup

425
00:17:41,437 --> 00:17:44,690
just explode very quickly
men and get real fat quickly.

426
00:17:44,732 --> 00:17:46,192
It's not just the drug itself,

427
00:17:46,233 --> 00:17:49,027
You know it fits him very well.

428
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:51,155
You know, taking the drug
makes you not want to exercise

429
00:17:51,197 --> 00:17:53,573
or eat healthy or
you will only be cold

430
00:17:53,615 --> 00:17:56,202
and it just becomes a bad person,
everything becomes slow.

431
00:17:56,243 --> 00:17:58,037
- You feel irritable.

432
00:17:58,078 --> 00:17:59,622
I don't want to be
to question my children.

433
00:17:59,663 --> 00:18:00,788
But I'm troublesome for my children  Because I don't sleep in two weeks.

434
00:18:00,830 --> 00:18:02,082


435
00:18:02,123 --> 00:18:04,042
I don't want to be
disturbed by being a father,

436
00:18:04,083 --> 00:18:05,418
I want to lean now.

437
00:18:05,460 --> 00:18:07,753
This is a cycle, which is the same negative behavior.

438
00:18:07,797 --> 00:18:11,883
But one night you forget
get high or you fall asleep

439
00:18:11,925 --> 00:18:14,093
and then you wake up
the next morning refreshed

440
00:18:14,135 --> 00:18:16,888
and you find out, it's
better morning meditation

441
00:18:16,930 --> 00:18:18,890
rather than drinking late at night.

442
00:18:18,932 --> 00:18:20,517
But then you have it
committed to

443
00:18:20,558 --> 00:18:24,103
remember to remember
what this gives you.

444
00:18:24,145 --> 00:18:25,897
And then you have to do it
make it your habit

445
00:18:25,938 --> 00:18:28,233
and that requires
personal power.

446
00:18:28,275 --> 00:18:31,110
Go to the funeral of my man,
and I see his daughter,

447
00:18:31,153 --> 00:18:32,653
his daughter
like four years old,

448
00:18:32,695 --> 00:18:35,115
the same age as my daughter and I
look at her and I like,

449
00:18:35,157 --> 00:18:36,908
yo I don't want to do that.

450
00:18:36,950 --> 00:18:38,910
I don't want to go
my child is like that.

451
00:18:38,952 --> 00:18:41,705
Obligation,
responsibility as a man,

452
00:18:41,747 --> 00:18:45,792
makes you aware, I have to put
my children before my pleasure.

453
00:18:45,833 --> 00:18:47,293
That's where I find
lots of motivation

454
00:18:47,335 --> 00:18:49,128
and desire for
get my life together.

455
00:18:49,170 --> 00:18:52,215
Want to be a man and become a
father to my children, not

456
00:18:52,257 --> 00:18:54,467
just live life
for my own pleasure.

457
00:18:54,510 --> 00:18:56,553
Now I want to live for my children.

458
00:18:56,595 --> 00:18:58,180
I will love him
regardless of how big he is,

459
00:18:58,222 --> 00:19:00,807
it's really
unhealthy and I'm worried

460
00:19:00,848 --> 00:19:03,268
about how long he will be
around and I don't like

461
00:19:03,310 --> 00:19:05,228
how unhappy he is with himself.

462
00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:06,813
For me, he seems depressed.

463
00:19:06,855 --> 00:19:08,273
The result you
want to see in your life,

464
00:19:08,315 --> 00:19:11,108
the success you want to see,
whether it is through your work,

465
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:12,652
does that enter
your relationship.

466
00:19:12,693 --> 00:19:13,945
It starts with who you are

467
00:19:13,987 --> 00:19:15,572
and how you feel about yourself.

468
00:19:15,613 --> 00:19:18,950
I had surgery at New
Night of 2010,

469
00:19:18,992 --> 00:19:21,118
and I have done everything I did
can get to that point

470
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,455
to try to lose weight
and I feel like this

471
00:19:23,497 --> 00:19:25,582
my last attempt,
underwent surgery.

472
00:19:25,623 --> 00:19:28,877
Because I am not only overweight,
I am unhealthy fat.

473
00:19:28,918 --> 00:19:31,297
And doctors tell me that if you are over 50 pounds,

474
00:19:31,338 --> 00:19:33,465
it takes 15 years of your life.

475
00:19:33,507 --> 00:19:36,468
That's real time, 15
years is a long time.

476
00:19:36,510 --> 00:19:39,680
So I say, this is an investment for my life,

477
00:19:39,722 --> 00:19:41,932
for my family, that's something
I really need to do it.

478
00:19:41,973 --> 00:19:44,517
I can wait until he gets
too bad and I have no choice

479
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,853
or I can get it now
so I will be here

480
00:19:46,895 --> 00:19:49,188
Until I am 70, 80, 90 years old.

481
00:19:49,230 --> 00:19:50,940
We are very
support it,

482
00:19:50,982 --> 00:19:53,527
because we all
worry about him.

483
00:19:53,568 --> 00:19:55,320
You know we love him,
we want him to be around

484
00:19:55,362 --> 00:19:56,988
forever.

485
00:19:57,030 --> 00:20:00,700
We have children, like you
know, it's my soul mate.

486
00:20:00,742 --> 00:20:02,452
When I enter
to get my operation,

487
00:20:02,493 --> 00:20:03,870
I don't want to do it
something

488
00:20:03,912 --> 00:20:08,583
it will only have me right
for, you know a few years.

489
00:20:08,625 --> 00:20:10,043
This is a lifestyle change.

490
00:20:10,085 --> 00:20:13,255
Not only, he underwent surgery,
do you know what I'm saying?

491
00:20:13,297 --> 00:20:15,007
Yes I have surgery
but me too, I train...

492
00:20:15,048 --> 00:20:17,425
I try hard in
gym, I eat right.

493
00:20:17,467 --> 00:20:19,260
This is a lifestyle change.

494
00:20:19,302 --> 00:20:20,553
Where are we heading now?

495
00:20:20,595 --> 00:20:22,097
- Eaton Canyon man.

496
00:20:22,138 --> 00:20:24,975
It's like my new,
this is my new trace.

497
00:20:25,017 --> 00:20:27,810
I did four months in Runyon.

498
00:20:27,852 --> 00:20:31,188
Somewhat took over, so I
thought I would change it

499
00:20:31,230 --> 00:20:35,110
to start my third
60 day challenge

500
00:20:35,152 --> 00:20:37,403
which is quite a lot
will be my whole core.

501
00:20:37,445 --> 00:20:39,238
After you finish
first 60 days,

502
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,867
then the next 60 days
is to rebuild the body.

503
00:20:41,908 --> 00:20:44,787
And then the next 60
days are just treatments.

504
00:20:44,828 --> 00:20:46,413
Likewise through
increment and training,

505
00:20:46,455 --> 00:20:47,872
and our diet and meal plan,

506
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:50,375
we can make stable
environment for people.

507
00:20:50,417 --> 00:20:52,252
Amazing game, he
inspires many people

508
00:20:52,293 --> 00:20:53,878
to stay with them
fitness and sports.

509
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,672
When you have someone else
who wants to motivate you,

510
00:20:55,713 --> 00:20:58,175
it makes everything much easier,
it makes sports fun.

511
00:20:58,217 --> 00:21:00,218
As soon as you start and you
get in this fitness

512
00:21:00,260 --> 00:21:02,053
like this, it lasts forever.

513
00:21:02,095 --> 00:21:04,640
Like I have to do it
eat healthy and exercise

514
00:21:04,682 --> 00:21:06,140
for the rest of my life.

515
00:21:06,182 --> 00:21:08,977
So if you are not dedicated
yourself, don't start,

516
00:21:09,018 --> 00:21:10,228
because you are
wasting your time.

517
00:21:10,270 --> 00:21:12,230
You can't ask it
body questions.

518
00:21:12,272 --> 00:21:14,232
Like you do something
that you fear

519
00:21:14,273 --> 00:21:16,150
and you ask yourself,
are you ready to do this?

520
00:21:16,192 --> 00:21:17,568
You have been killed

521
00:21:17,610 --> 00:21:19,570
half of
determination in yourself

522
00:21:19,612 --> 00:21:22,073
because you gave
the choice to say no.

523
00:21:22,115 --> 00:21:24,075
What I do with myself is I
wake up in the morning

524
00:21:24,117 --> 00:21:26,912
and I say, you
know, let's take it.

525
00:21:26,953 --> 00:21:30,082
I get diesel
right now.

526
00:21:30,123 --> 00:21:33,710
I got the tiger eye,
do you know what I'm saying?

527
00:21:33,752 --> 00:21:34,753
Start fast.

528
00:21:34,795 --> 00:21:37,380
Three, two, one, let's go.

529
00:23:08,138 --> 00:23:11,850
Just do like five
run miles, stop, climb,

530
00:23:11,892 --> 00:23:13,352
human waterfall.

531
00:23:13,393 --> 00:23:15,187
And you know, you will do it
it after all that,

532
00:23:15,228 --> 00:23:17,938
You will feel tired,
but you know how I feel?

533
00:23:17,980 --> 00:23:19,023
I feel rich.

534
00:23:19,065 --> 00:23:22,735
That's it.

535
00:23:22,777 --> 00:23:25,863
I decided to make
MixFitz Turn-Up because

536
00:23:25,905 --> 00:23:28,533
in my Zumba class
women are experiencing an explosion.

537
00:23:28,575 --> 00:23:29,367
- Here we go!

538
00:23:29,408 --> 00:23:31,035
Steps.

539
00:23:31,077 --> 00:23:32,703
Return.

540
00:23:37,417 --> 00:23:38,835
- Exceptional class.

541
00:23:38,877 --> 00:23:41,463
We have a blast, it's very much
fun, I have good practice.

542
00:23:41,505 --> 00:23:43,882
Oh my God, it's real exercise.

543
00:23:44,757 --> 00:23:45,925
- Have fun!

544
00:23:45,967 --> 00:23:47,218
Even white girls
learn how to dance.

545
00:23:47,260 --> 00:23:49,805
That's a lot of energy
and we have an explosion.

546
00:23:49,847 --> 00:23:53,475
However, there are
something missing,

547
00:23:53,517 --> 00:23:58,313
I want to keep it
authentic for the taste of Houston.

548
00:23:58,355 --> 00:24:00,065
For that Southern taste.

549
00:24:02,942 --> 00:24:04,735
So the women want
to get ratchet.

550
00:24:04,777 --> 00:24:06,403
So we decided that we
would start something

551
00:24:06,445 --> 00:24:11,033
where we can
fun, clean, ratchet fun.

552
00:24:18,417 --> 00:24:21,628
You know, that's a big woman
gang, Beyonce everyone.

553
00:24:21,670 --> 00:24:23,713
Everyone is on stage
when you are there,

554
00:24:23,755 --> 00:24:25,882
You are on stage,
you have fun.

555
00:24:25,923 --> 00:24:29,552
And so, I mean, it's like
having a big old crew.

556
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,100
I really feel like that
we are at the beginning

557
00:24:36,142 --> 00:24:39,562
of the self-love revolution.

558
00:24:39,603 --> 00:24:40,772
Like real.

559
00:24:40,813 --> 00:24:43,483
Whenever you step
outside yourself

560
00:24:43,525 --> 00:24:49,072
and achieve something
You never thought possible,

561
00:24:49,113 --> 00:24:50,823
I think you start looking for
on yourself differently.

562
00:24:50,865 --> 00:24:52,658
Like, asshole, you're a champion.

563
00:24:52,700 --> 00:24:55,453
Holistic health is not
only focus on sports

564
00:24:55,495 --> 00:24:58,163
or what you eat or
meditate and do yoga,

565
00:24:58,207 --> 00:25:00,458
it's all three, so that's
mind, body and soul.

566
00:25:07,507 --> 00:25:10,677
So I feel like that
the person who really embodies

567
00:25:10,718 --> 00:25:14,138
holistic health like
who is truly a prototype

568
00:25:14,180 --> 00:25:16,057
is Stic.Man from Dead Prez.

569
00:25:16,098 --> 00:25:18,058
And he's pretty much
dedicating his whole life now

570
00:25:18,100 --> 00:25:20,812
to put health messages out there

571
00:25:20,853 --> 00:25:23,857
to urban society.

572
00:25:23,898 --> 00:25:25,817
When I go to his house
home, it blows my mind

573
00:25:25,858 --> 00:25:28,987
because we went to Atlanta
and he opened the door

574
00:25:29,028 --> 00:25:32,532
and that feels so good
in their home.

575
00:25:32,573 --> 00:25:35,618
And for one, it's great
to see healthy black families

576
00:25:35,660 --> 00:25:38,538
doing all of these things with
and picking vegetables

577
00:25:38,580 --> 00:25:39,830
and immediately cook it

578
00:25:39,872 --> 00:25:41,625
and they are
prototypes in my opinion.

579
00:25:41,667 --> 00:25:46,838
They really like
thoughts, body and spirit all.

580
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,047
There is a Buddhist
story called

581
00:25:48,088 --> 00:25:50,342
from farmers who know what is good or bad.

582
00:25:50,383 --> 00:25:54,178
Horse farmers run away
neighbors come and say

583
00:25:54,220 --> 00:25:56,305
ah, forgive me
lose your horse man

584
00:25:56,347 --> 00:25:59,433
and he is like a farmer,
who knows what is good or bad?

585
00:25:59,475 --> 00:26:02,228
Maybe a week later, it's the same horse back

586
00:26:02,270 --> 00:26:04,563
with 12 more horses
following it

587
00:26:04,605 --> 00:26:06,148
and so its neighbors
see all horses

588
00:26:06,190 --> 00:26:09,277
and he is like, wow
men, really a blessing.

589
00:26:09,318 --> 00:26:12,113
You get all this
new horse for free.

590
00:26:12,155 --> 00:26:15,325
And the farmer is like,
who knows what is good or bad?

591
00:26:15,367 --> 00:26:18,160
Immediately after that, the farmer
children go up one of them

592
00:26:18,202 --> 00:26:20,497
the luxurious new horses they have,

593
00:26:20,538 --> 00:26:22,540
fall and break
his legs too.

594
00:26:22,582 --> 00:26:25,127
So the neighbor
sees that and says,

595
00:26:25,168 --> 00:26:28,170
oh, I'm so sorry what happened
to your son,

596
00:26:28,212 --> 00:26:31,717
but wise farmers just say,
who knows what is good or bad?

597
00:26:31,758 --> 00:26:34,970
The king of the province of
will come to draft

598
00:26:35,012 --> 00:26:37,972
all young men of war.

599
00:26:38,013 --> 00:26:41,392
And they arrived at the farmer
home to get their farmer son,

600
00:26:41,433 --> 00:26:45,230
but his leg broke, so
he didn't have to go to war.

601
00:26:45,272 --> 00:26:49,317
So it's not just this moral
story, but the moral life.

602
00:26:49,358 --> 00:26:51,402
When we decide it's good or bad,

603
00:26:51,443 --> 00:26:53,738
is when we attach perception.

604
00:26:53,780 --> 00:26:56,323
And that's how we
can be disappointed

605
00:26:56,365 --> 00:26:57,783
and that's how we suffer.

606
00:26:57,825 --> 00:26:59,618
Real illness is when
you have dis-easement

607
00:26:59,660 --> 00:27:01,078
in you and starts here.

608
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:02,580
It starts in your brain
and sends that signal

609
00:27:02,622 --> 00:27:04,082
through the rest of you
body that feels uncomfortable

610
00:27:04,123 --> 00:27:05,583
and that's why they
call it a disease.

611
00:27:05,625 --> 00:27:07,543
Many diseases like
only you who emphasize yourself

612
00:27:07,585 --> 00:27:10,297
too far, good
something that you can't control

613
00:27:10,338 --> 00:27:11,588
or something that will happen
is controlled too.

614
00:27:11,630 --> 00:27:13,090
My mother often tells me
when I was a child like,

615
00:27:13,132 --> 00:27:15,177
cry if you want, you
will only have a headache.

616
00:27:15,218 --> 00:27:16,343
It's fine your nose
ran, you have a headache,

617
00:27:16,385 --> 00:27:17,928
You still have to
complete your homework.

618
00:27:17,970 --> 00:27:20,515
So I learned to get it
that part came out of the way

619
00:27:20,557 --> 00:27:22,350
and learn to get it
stress comes out of the way.

620
00:27:22,392 --> 00:27:24,560
Kinda take the chain
from it, leave it alone.

621
00:27:24,602 --> 00:27:25,978
Are you aware of that
, all day long,

622
00:27:26,020 --> 00:27:27,230
everyone does this.

623
00:27:27,272 --> 00:27:28,440
Even if you
realize it or not.

624
00:27:28,482 --> 00:27:30,150
Enclosed
anything in this world,

625
00:27:30,192 --> 00:27:33,945
appreciating anything in the world
will cause you to suffer.

626
00:27:33,987 --> 00:27:38,950
So the less you hold
for this need,

627
00:27:38,992 --> 00:27:40,535
it's better you go.

628
00:27:40,577 --> 00:27:43,328
And that's not something I wrote in my book

629
00:27:43,372 --> 00:27:45,123
because it sounds good,
that's something

630
00:27:45,165 --> 00:27:48,543
Abraham and Jesus and
Mohammad and the Buddha

631
00:27:48,585 --> 00:27:50,837
and in The Yoga Sutra, it
is repeated

632
00:27:50,878 --> 00:27:52,713
smart people
tell us this.

633
00:27:52,755 --> 00:27:54,090
Don't attach yourself to things

634
00:27:54,132 --> 00:27:56,133
which is nothing
do with your happiness.

635
00:27:56,175 --> 00:27:59,137
A business man,
they are very funny like,

636
00:27:59,178 --> 00:28:02,598
they get money and
they are excited for a while.

637
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,475
They are happy because
the stock market is up

638
00:28:04,517 --> 00:28:07,728
and their hearts go down
Because the stock goes down.

639
00:28:07,770 --> 00:28:12,108
And their happiness is produced.

640
00:28:12,150 --> 00:28:14,860
People
really commit suicide

641
00:28:14,902 --> 00:28:17,655
try to reach
material wealth.

642
00:28:17,697 --> 00:28:20,450
Because they are
what will make them happy.

643
00:28:24,453 --> 00:28:26,163
All about
how you feel inside

644
00:28:26,205 --> 00:28:29,375
That motivation makes
you confident and all that.

645
00:28:29,417 --> 00:28:31,043
Some people buy
dirt material

646
00:28:31,085 --> 00:28:33,588
because it's nothing
good about them.

647
00:28:33,630 --> 00:28:36,842
Those external objects
can really come and go.

648
00:28:36,883 --> 00:28:39,843
But what you have
is in yours.

649
00:28:39,885 --> 00:28:41,470
That's yours forever and
that you have

650
00:28:41,512 --> 00:28:43,682
to maintain for the rest of your life
and that's what your
will maintain when you don't have

651
00:28:43,723 --> 00:28:47,227
changes because material
will all come and go.

652
00:28:47,268 --> 00:28:50,522
You will be the hottest
artist at one point

653
00:28:50,563 --> 00:28:52,273
and then at a certain point,

654
00:28:52,315 --> 00:28:53,525
people try
remember your name.

655
00:28:53,567 --> 00:28:55,527
Human mind and
subconscious mind

656
00:28:55,568 --> 00:28:57,195
they are weird pieces
our equipment too.

657
00:28:57,237 --> 00:29:00,198
Your mind will take your
to the next level,

658
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,200


659
00:29:03,242 --> 00:29:04,702
where are you trying to go.

660
00:29:04,743 --> 00:29:08,080
When you are in the playoffs
game seven, so to speak,

661
00:29:08,122 --> 00:29:09,998
You really can't
depend on your body.

662
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,458
You must depend on your mind.

663
00:29:11,500 --> 00:29:12,918
- Know how strong you are.

664
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,670
Women, we are strong.

665
00:29:14,712 --> 00:29:18,467
Run in general
it is definitely time

666
00:29:18,508 --> 00:29:22,387
that your mind
make or destroy run away.

667
00:29:22,428 --> 00:29:24,013
If you have one day
where you feel like,

668
00:29:24,055 --> 00:29:25,055
I'm tired.

669
00:29:25,097 --> 00:29:26,057
I am hot.

670
00:29:26,098 --> 00:29:27,225
This is far away.

671
00:29:27,267 --> 00:29:29,893
If you allow that
the mind pattern goes,

672
00:29:29,935 --> 00:29:31,395
You don't run it properly.

673
00:29:31,437 --> 00:29:36,317
And then another day, you
the same body, your same mind,

674
00:29:36,358 --> 00:29:38,653
the same path you run,

675
00:29:38,695 --> 00:29:41,572
oh, i feel like i
can walk for days.

676
00:29:41,613 --> 00:29:43,575
I have energy and I
just thought

677
00:29:43,617 --> 00:29:47,037
and it's very beautiful
and your mind feeds it

678
00:29:47,078 --> 00:29:50,415
but our perception is what
gives us that experience.

679
00:29:50,457 --> 00:29:54,043
Negative or positive or
anything, it's just perception.

680
00:29:54,085 --> 00:29:55,795
Mostly
when when we feel bad,

681
00:29:55,837 --> 00:29:57,297
That's because of our thoughts.

682
00:29:57,338 --> 00:29:58,923
We wake up in the morning,
we only have a bad feeling,

683
00:29:58,965 --> 00:30:01,008
a disgusting feeling or
something like that.

684
00:30:01,050 --> 00:30:04,595
How we react to it
feelings are up to us.

685
00:30:04,637 --> 00:30:06,305
And I think that's what happens
meditation helps you.

686
00:30:06,347 --> 00:30:10,100
Does it help you cleanse yourself
sort of artificial mind

687
00:30:10,142 --> 00:30:12,020
and that raises
organic thoughts.

688
00:30:12,062 --> 00:30:13,772
That's why we meditate
practice so that the mind can

689
00:30:13,813 --> 00:30:18,818
slows down so we don't have
noise, the mind is fine.

690
00:30:18,860 --> 00:30:20,068
This is the type of silence,

691
00:30:20,110 --> 00:30:23,447
this kind of focus
which promotes happiness.

692
00:30:23,488 --> 00:30:25,242
The difference I have already
paid attention to meditation

693
00:30:25,283 --> 00:30:27,493
we are more peaceful
ourselves, like us...

694
00:30:27,535 --> 00:30:30,247
it's time, that you
can take it for yourself

695
00:30:30,288 --> 00:30:31,788
just shut up.

696
00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:34,042
And that allows
The universe is only open

697
00:30:34,083 --> 00:30:36,793
and only have stuff for you
maybe you can't do it

698
00:30:36,835 --> 00:30:39,463
see clearly if you
don't meditate.

699
00:30:39,505 --> 00:30:41,548
It's about something
being aligned with yourself

700
00:30:41,590 --> 00:30:44,468
when you meditate and
only communicate with yourself

701
00:30:44,510 --> 00:30:47,305
it's like one of the most pure things you can do.

702
00:30:47,347 --> 00:30:49,932
It's nothing beyond that
can disturb your world

703
00:30:49,973 --> 00:30:51,850
and that's all you
deal with you.

704
00:30:51,893 --> 00:30:55,020
The overall idea of
hip-hop in popular culture

705
00:30:55,062 --> 00:30:56,563
or whatever about cool.

706
00:30:56,605 --> 00:30:59,150
Being under pressure,
has your peace,

707
00:30:59,192 --> 00:31:02,278
no one can move you
and you are only solid.

708
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:07,325
Meditation is a way to treat it very cool.

709
00:31:07,367 --> 00:31:09,202
That's cool actually under pressure.

710
00:31:09,243 --> 00:31:12,663
And I think many times,
we bring lots of noise

711
00:31:12,705 --> 00:31:14,790
in our heads and
when you meditate,

712
00:31:14,832 --> 00:31:16,625
what you do is
you breathe

713
00:31:16,667 --> 00:31:17,960
and only focus
when breathing,

714
00:31:18,002 --> 00:31:20,003
if there are other thoughts
come, you say thank you

715
00:31:20,045 --> 00:31:23,465
but no thanks and you try
just focus on breathing

716
00:31:23,507 --> 00:31:25,677
as deep as you can
and breathe out.

717
00:31:25,718 --> 00:31:28,178
But what happens is
when we are stressed,

718
00:31:28,220 --> 00:31:30,432
we take a breath, and
as soon as you think about it

719
00:31:31,057 --> 00:31:32,350
a tense thing,
you exhale again  and you breathe
very shallow

720
00:31:32,392 --> 00:31:33,685
and it's bad for your health.

721
00:31:33,727 --> 00:31:34,935
That makes you more depressed.

722
00:31:34,977 --> 00:31:36,353
Right, shallow breathing
is a fear response.

723
00:31:36,395 --> 00:31:39,440
So, when you
take a deep breath

724
00:31:39,482 --> 00:31:40,817
and only focus on one thing,

725
00:31:40,858 --> 00:31:42,360
many other sounds
and stress falls just like that.

726
00:31:42,402 --> 00:31:44,945
Breathing even though life is a solution for everyone.

727
00:31:44,987 --> 00:31:48,032
If we all take a deep breath
before we make a bad decision,

728
00:31:48,073 --> 00:31:53,453
You know maybe we
won't succeed.

729
00:31:53,495 --> 00:31:54,913
When you use
meditation together with eating whole foods

730
00:31:54,955 --> 00:31:57,708
plant diet, some
running and moderate exercise

731
00:31:57,750 --> 00:32:01,337


732
00:32:01,378 --> 00:32:03,380
and spend more time
with your loved ones.

733
00:32:03,422 --> 00:32:05,842
That simple change
can not only help prevent,

734
00:32:05,883 --> 00:32:08,970
but even reverse most
general and serious conditions.

735
00:32:09,012 --> 00:32:10,597
It can reduce you
blood pressure,

736
00:32:10,638 --> 00:32:12,557
it can reduce you
even cholesterol levels.

737
00:32:12,598 --> 00:32:15,768
What we found was
that transcendental meditation

738
00:32:15,810 --> 00:32:18,520
when offered
underserved urban schools,

739
00:32:18,562 --> 00:32:21,648
there is a dramatic
transformation in that school

740
00:32:21,690 --> 00:32:24,443
when is now every child or
teenager in school

741
00:32:24,485 --> 00:32:27,238
has the ability to
10 minutes twice a day

742
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,240
to close his eyes
as part of school day

743
00:32:30,282 --> 00:32:33,953
and only experience a country
rest and relaxation.

744
00:32:33,995 --> 00:32:35,413
Deeper than sleep.

745
00:32:35,455 --> 00:32:40,793
The child is alert, calm,
awake and for education,

746
00:32:40,835 --> 00:32:42,587
they call learning readiness
the most important thing

747
00:32:42,628 --> 00:32:44,380
in education and for
learning readiness,

748
00:32:44,422 --> 00:32:46,632
what they want is
calm vigilance.

749
00:32:46,673 --> 00:32:49,677
Children, rather than having to
all interference and noise

750
00:32:49,718 --> 00:32:55,223
in mind they must be
free to act accordingly.

751
00:32:55,265 --> 00:32:57,518
A child gets better
students, becomes less rude,

752
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,353
anxiety disappears.

753
00:32:59,395 --> 00:33:03,190
You know it's very much
the problems facing youth

754
00:33:03,232 --> 00:33:08,822
which I don't think they have
outlets for that sometimes.

755
00:33:08,863 --> 00:33:13,242
Meditation can help them
only centered, you know.

756
00:33:13,283 --> 00:33:15,995
This gives you confidence, it
gives you a sense of peace.

757
00:33:16,037 --> 00:33:19,457
The need for transcendental
meditation or quiet time

758
00:33:19,498 --> 00:33:22,752
in school really
very clear.

759
00:33:22,793 --> 00:33:25,295
10 million children
suffer from depression

760
00:33:25,337 --> 00:33:27,465
and they are active
antidepressant drugs.

761
00:33:27,507 --> 00:33:30,300
Five million children
diagnosed with ADHD

762
00:33:30,342 --> 00:33:33,595
and other learning disorders
and number three cause

763
00:33:33,637 --> 00:33:37,308
death in America among
adolescents is suicide.

764
00:33:37,350 --> 00:33:38,810
So they
actually do research

765
00:33:38,852 --> 00:33:41,020
which shows that 10
one year old children are growing up

766
00:33:41,062 --> 00:33:43,188
as in depressed
urban environment

767
00:33:43,230 --> 00:33:46,150
dealing with the same thing
post-traumatic stress level

768
00:33:46,192 --> 00:33:47,485
as a man or woman who returns

769
00:33:47,527 --> 00:33:50,447
from fighting in Iraq
or Afghanistan.

770
00:33:50,488 --> 00:33:53,490
You also know when
a child does not pass,

771
00:33:53,532 --> 00:33:55,660
they go to jail
pipe for songs

772
00:33:55,702 --> 00:34:00,957
two million dollars per
child bill to the community.

773
00:34:00,998 --> 00:34:02,500
And there are about 40%
rate drop out now

774
00:34:02,542 --> 00:34:04,335
in our city high school.

775
00:34:04,377 --> 00:34:07,045
And you can't treat it,

776
00:34:07,088 --> 00:34:12,635
and you can't give every child
deep counseling,

777
00:34:12,677 --> 00:34:15,597
but what you can do is complete their
with a simple tool

778
00:34:15,638 --> 00:34:19,308
that anyone of them can learn
easily, instantly.

779
00:34:19,350 --> 00:34:20,893
- So choose a voice.

780
00:34:20,935 --> 00:34:23,478
There are many voices
that people meditate,

781
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:29,152
om, shalom, salaam, amen,
amen, it can be anything.

782
00:34:29,193 --> 00:34:31,487
Close your eyes and do that.

783
00:34:31,528 --> 00:34:33,113
And leave it filled
all your breath.

784
00:34:33,155 --> 00:34:34,240
So, inhale.

785
00:34:34,282 --> 00:34:35,742
Om.

786
00:34:35,783 --> 00:34:37,202
Until you run out of air.

787
00:34:37,243 --> 00:34:38,118
Do it again.

788
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:39,662
Stop, do it again.

789
00:34:39,703 --> 00:34:41,497
Now, what will happen,
Your mind will wander,

790
00:34:41,538 --> 00:34:42,623
You will start thinking
about, I have to do this,

791
00:34:42,665 --> 00:34:43,875
I forgot to do that.

792
00:34:43,917 --> 00:34:45,042
As soon as you become
you realize you're thinking

793
00:34:45,083 --> 00:34:46,835
about something else, bring it back.

794
00:34:46,877 --> 00:34:48,212
Again and again and again.

795
00:34:48,253 --> 00:34:49,713
That's meditation.

796
00:34:49,755 --> 00:34:52,383
So you start to see an
increase in test scores,

797
00:34:52,425 --> 00:34:55,260
studies conducted in San
Public Middle School in Francisco,

798
00:34:55,302 --> 00:34:58,055
worst school
being one of the best schools

799
00:34:58,097 --> 00:35:01,183
in the district, test scores
for example for English

800
00:35:01,225 --> 00:35:03,727
and Mathematics improvement 40%
in test scores.

801
00:35:03,768 --> 00:35:06,063
There are so many
thousands of children,

802
00:35:06,105 --> 00:35:08,482
who you will never
think about meditating,

803
00:35:08,523 --> 00:35:10,652
as soon as they learn it,
they don't want to stop.

804
00:35:10,693 --> 00:35:13,737
I think people will be
surprised at the big difference

805
00:35:13,778 --> 00:35:16,407
Three minutes of meditation
can do for your life.

806
00:35:16,448 --> 00:35:18,450
Especially single mothers
who have sold custody rights

807
00:35:18,492 --> 00:35:19,993
their children and there are
many causes of stress

808
00:35:20,035 --> 00:35:22,747
they work and then they
go home to their children,

809
00:35:22,788 --> 00:35:24,623
will meditate
change their lives.

810
00:35:24,665 --> 00:35:26,917
- Poverty makes you very angry.

811
00:35:26,958 --> 00:35:30,128
It's very difficult to work
every day and still can't afford

812
00:35:30,170 --> 00:35:32,590
transportation, it's very
difficult to work every day

813
00:35:32,632 --> 00:35:34,800
and don't pay for decent housing.

814
00:35:34,842 --> 00:35:38,595
This really weakens you
emotionally and physically

815
00:35:38,637 --> 00:35:42,267
sometimes and I become a single mother
because of choice,

816
00:35:42,308 --> 00:35:43,935
my child when I was alive
in middle school,

817
00:35:43,977 --> 00:35:47,772
I adopted my son from
community because of my grandparents

818
00:35:47,813 --> 00:35:50,482
take care of me and I
do something I know

819
00:35:50,525 --> 00:35:54,070
needs to be done, but I don't do it
have the resources to do it.

820
00:35:54,112 --> 00:35:56,905
And that makes me angry,
it makes me angry to fight

821
00:35:56,947 --> 00:35:59,533
every day,
despite working full time

822
00:35:59,575 --> 00:36:01,452
and still living in poverty.

823
00:36:01,493 --> 00:36:03,162
And many people
are single mothers

824
00:36:03,203 --> 00:36:04,663
in a disadvantaged situation,

825
00:36:04,705 --> 00:36:07,040
do not feel very strong
at all, you feel helpless.

826
00:36:07,082 --> 00:36:08,708
Because you don't feel that way
You have a lot of control.

827
00:36:08,750 --> 00:36:10,628
Meditation gives you
way out of it.

828
00:36:10,670 --> 00:36:12,672
This gives you a feeling
is in control again.

829
00:36:12,713 --> 00:36:14,048
Empower yourself.

830
00:36:14,090 --> 00:36:16,217
You know, before
children wake up,

831
00:36:16,258 --> 00:36:17,593
before anyone rises
before you have to do it

832
00:36:17,635 --> 00:36:19,678
one of your maternal tasks,

833
00:36:19,720 --> 00:36:21,263
just take your moment.

834
00:36:21,305 --> 00:36:24,350
Five, ten minutes, and fair.

835
00:36:24,392 --> 00:36:27,812
If you go through several
fight and you are upset

836
00:36:27,853 --> 00:36:30,940
or you are angry and
if you take the time,

837
00:36:30,982 --> 00:36:33,400
You will be satisfied and
You will say, wow,

838
00:36:33,442 --> 00:36:36,445
You don't have to be
the mercy of these emotions

839
00:36:36,487 --> 00:36:37,905
and things like that.

840
00:36:37,947 --> 00:36:40,157
They remind me
that I have potential,

841
00:36:40,198 --> 00:36:42,452
and I have the ability to achieve it.

842
00:36:42,493 --> 00:36:45,955
It seems impossible that
I can come from poverty

843
00:36:45,997 --> 00:36:49,917
as a single mother to
become a PHD holder.

844
00:36:49,958 --> 00:36:51,627
But it's very possible
when you are willing

845
00:36:52,043 --> 00:36:54,047
invest in yourself
and in your children

846
00:36:54,088 --> 00:36:56,840
and you set a limit
how far you can go.

847
00:36:56,882 --> 00:36:59,593
If mamas come out
there love themselves

848
00:36:59,635 --> 00:37:01,803
and take care of themselves
and show that

849
00:37:01,845 --> 00:37:04,682
for their children and
improve the main way.

850
00:37:04,723 --> 00:37:07,768
I think when a young man
sees his mother in that light,

851
00:37:07,810 --> 00:37:09,395
like that changes its world.

852
00:37:09,437 --> 00:37:12,315
If you want your child
invested in the world

853
00:37:12,357 --> 00:37:15,150
in a happy and not
way that is prone to anxiety,

854
00:37:15,192 --> 00:37:17,152
learn to meditate and
teach your children.

855
00:37:17,193 --> 00:37:19,363
As soon as you meditate and
you keep your thoughts,

856
00:37:19,405 --> 00:37:22,240
then suddenly what is very important
will appear

857
00:37:22,283 --> 00:37:25,243
and I think more people
will find that self-love

858
00:37:25,285 --> 00:37:27,622
through meditation and then
they want to eat healthier

859
00:37:27,663 --> 00:37:29,790
and want to treat people
in different ways.

860
00:37:29,832 --> 00:37:32,543
So I think everything starts
thoughts and in spirit.

861
00:37:32,585 --> 00:37:34,712
Well this will happen
last White House

862
00:37:34,753 --> 00:37:37,340
Kitchen Garden planting for me.

863
00:37:37,382 --> 00:37:41,218
Yes, it's been eight years before we cook this

864
00:37:41,260 --> 00:37:46,723
very interesting idea
maybe we can dig some dirt

865
00:37:46,765 --> 00:37:49,227
on the South page, maybe
someone will let us do that,

866
00:37:49,268 --> 00:37:54,607
and we will plant
beautiful garden

867
00:37:54,648 --> 00:37:58,568
space for us to talk
about the food we eat.

868
00:37:58,610 --> 00:38:00,153
When you
talk about holistic health

869
00:38:00,195 --> 00:38:01,655
that relate to
urban community

870
00:38:01,697 --> 00:38:04,325
because of the murder
rates and poverty rate

871
00:38:04,367 --> 00:38:06,410
and stress levels there,

872
00:38:06,452 --> 00:38:08,078
You will need a different type of solution.

873
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,830
My name is Ron
Finley and we enter

874
00:38:09,872 --> 00:38:12,333
Central South, Los Angeles.

875
00:38:12,375 --> 00:38:13,875
Home from drive-by.

876
00:38:13,917 --> 00:38:17,212
Right behind us is what I like
to call my urban food source.

877
00:38:17,253 --> 00:38:19,257
What inspired me
to make this food for us

878
00:38:19,298 --> 00:38:22,385
is a lack of health
food in this community.

879
00:38:22,427 --> 00:38:24,803
I want people to see it
you can grow your own food

880
00:38:24,845 --> 00:38:27,473
and stop waiting
the others do it for you.

881
00:38:27,515 --> 00:38:28,973
Grow your own food,
empower yourself,

882
00:38:29,017 --> 00:38:30,142
empower your community.

883
00:38:30,183 --> 00:38:31,852
I want people to see how easy it is

884
00:38:31,893 --> 00:38:33,478
and how beautiful it is.

885
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,690
I just want to bring back health to this community.

886
00:38:36,732 --> 00:38:38,525
So with
all these desserts,

887
00:38:38,567 --> 00:38:40,235
there are also many
bright spots out there.

888
00:38:40,277 --> 00:38:42,278
We went to Detroit and
met a company called

889
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:43,530
Urban Gardening.

890
00:38:43,572 --> 00:38:46,617
I am from Minneapolis,
but I live on farm

891
00:38:46,658 --> 00:38:48,660
for three and a half
years in my adolescence.

892
00:38:48,702 --> 00:38:51,997
So when I see all that
land that is not used in the city,

893
00:38:52,038 --> 00:38:54,667
my mind thinks, why is that
don't we just grow food

894
00:38:54,708 --> 00:38:56,127
on that land?

895
00:38:56,168 --> 00:38:59,088
So I put my record
career on the back of the stove

896
00:38:59,130 --> 00:39:00,923
and I started Urban Farming

897
00:39:00,965 --> 00:39:03,758
and we started with three
gardens in Detroit, Michigan.

898
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,845
This is one of the first pamphlets

899
00:39:05,887 --> 00:39:08,013
I started
Urban Farming with.

900
00:39:08,055 --> 00:39:10,140
Let everyone know we
get ready to start

901
00:39:10,182 --> 00:39:13,893
plant a garden so then enter
2005, we really started,

902
00:39:13,935 --> 00:39:16,647
this is the first garden
planting that we do.

903
00:39:16,688 --> 00:39:19,817
We grew up in the second year,
we expanded to Minneapolis

904
00:39:19,858 --> 00:39:22,903
St. Louis, New York,
Jamaica and Los Angeles.

905
00:39:22,945 --> 00:39:24,405
This is the ticker record that is running.

906
00:39:24,447 --> 00:39:26,698
This is in real time
as soon as someone registers

907
00:39:26,740 --> 00:39:29,577
their garden, anywhere in the world this number goes up

908
00:39:29,618 --> 00:39:32,538
and your garden will
appear on the global map.

909
00:39:32,580 --> 00:39:35,665
And again, it starts
Detroit with only three gardens.

910
00:39:35,707 --> 00:39:37,835
My name is Rashid Nuri,
I am the President and Founder

911
00:39:37,877 --> 00:39:41,838
from True Living Well Center
for National Urban Agriculture.

912
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,675
We produce more than 30,000
pounds of food every year.

913
00:39:44,717 --> 00:39:45,592
And we distribute it through us

914
00:39:45,633 --> 00:39:47,512
agriculture supported by the community.

915
00:39:47,553 --> 00:39:50,180
We sell it to some of the best restaurants in the city.

916
00:39:50,222 --> 00:39:53,725
We give multiple values
people who use food stamps

917
00:39:53,767 --> 00:39:55,770
and if someone is hungry
we just give them food.

918
00:39:55,812 --> 00:39:58,480
80% of Americans,
live in the city.

919
00:39:58,522 --> 00:40:00,190
So that's why urban agriculture becomes

920
00:40:00,232 --> 00:40:01,608
increasingly important,

921
00:40:01,650 --> 00:40:03,318
we prove
economic feasibility

922
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:04,695
from urban agriculture.

923
00:40:04,737 --> 00:40:06,363
So it's all about deciding
how we will have

924
00:40:06,405 --> 00:40:09,658
abundant food system
in urban settings.

925
00:40:09,700 --> 00:40:11,577
Many organizations now
in the United States,

926
00:40:11,618 --> 00:40:13,662
school, based on religion
institutions,

927
00:40:13,703 --> 00:40:14,872
non-profit organization,

928
00:40:14,913 --> 00:40:17,082
have land and therefore
facts that we have

929
00:40:17,123 --> 00:40:18,958
nutrition challenges
with our health

930
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,878
throughout our community
these organizations are trying

931
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,838
to review their mission.

932
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,592
We are in the Third Ward
area of Houston, Texas.

933
00:40:26,633 --> 00:40:28,093
In Alabama Gardens.

934
00:40:28,135 --> 00:40:30,428
This property here belongs to
to Texas Southern University

935
00:40:30,470 --> 00:40:33,473
and they let us use this
property to grow vegetables.

936
00:40:33,515 --> 00:40:35,725
We have 56 plots in
here and what we develop

937
00:40:35,767 --> 00:40:38,978
we take care of those families
we take care of the food bank.

938
00:40:39,020 --> 00:40:42,525
I want capable people to take the food system back

939
00:40:42,567 --> 00:40:44,360
because it's been taken from us.

940
00:40:44,402 --> 00:40:46,237
There are more than 400 and
something like carrots.

941
00:40:46,278 --> 00:40:48,780
You are lucky to find three
of them in stores,

942
00:40:48,822 --> 00:40:50,198
it's the same as apple.

943
00:40:50,240 --> 00:40:52,493
They narrow us down
food choices go down,

944
00:40:52,535 --> 00:40:55,703
so basically all of these foods
that reality is produced

945
00:40:55,745 --> 00:40:57,247
for us and you are only
& apos; Closed to follow it,

946
00:40:57,288 --> 00:40:59,250
so I want to bring
this whole sky,

947
00:40:59,292 --> 00:41:01,835
all of these colors
we have had food,

948
00:41:01,877 --> 00:41:03,795
I want to bring it back so I say to people

949
00:41:03,837 --> 00:41:06,215
get gangsters with them
park and grow some food.

950
00:41:06,257 --> 00:41:09,260
Grow yourself
food, healthy,

951
00:41:09,302 --> 00:41:12,345
taking back your community,
not terrorizing your community,

952
00:41:12,387 --> 00:41:13,805
it's a gangster for me.

953
00:41:13,847 --> 00:41:16,558
Local food is being encouraged
throughout the market,

954
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,310
but we don't do it
have enough growers.

955
00:41:18,352 --> 00:41:20,687
And we definitely don't have it
planters are enough color,

956
00:41:20,728 --> 00:41:22,898
who are in the room where they are able to maintain

957
00:41:22,940 --> 00:41:25,275
alone and provide
to their families.

958
00:41:25,317 --> 00:41:27,528
So we want to know
how we can take us,

959
00:41:27,570 --> 00:41:30,280
attitude for yourself with
skills and technology

960
00:41:30,322 --> 00:41:32,407
which allows us to grow
abundant amounts of food

961
00:41:32,448 --> 00:41:33,783
in a small space.

962
00:41:33,825 --> 00:41:35,493
- You can grow food, anywhere.

963
00:41:35,535 --> 00:41:37,955
You know, you can grow food
in the box on your balcony,

964
00:41:37,997 --> 00:41:39,540
You can grow food in a bucket

965
00:41:39,582 --> 00:41:42,292
and I tell people if it's
land, put something in it.

966
00:41:42,333 --> 00:41:44,085
Because food must be free.

967
00:41:44,127 --> 00:41:46,255
It's like printing
your own money, period.

968
00:41:46,297 --> 00:41:47,798
One of the things
that people say to me

969
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,800
when we first start is,
you have to place a fence around

970
00:41:49,842 --> 00:41:53,053
gardens and I say
why, they say because

971
00:41:53,095 --> 00:41:54,472
they will steal food.

972
00:41:54,513 --> 00:41:55,973
And I said, well there
no one stole,

973
00:41:56,015 --> 00:41:57,642
that the food is free.

974
00:41:57,683 --> 00:41:59,977
You can't eat all the foods you can grow,

975
00:42:00,018 --> 00:42:01,228
it's almost impossible,

976
00:42:01,270 --> 00:42:03,980
you will eat
all day every day.

977
00:42:04,022 --> 00:42:06,733
Just imagine if we have a place where everyone

978
00:42:06,775 --> 00:42:08,693
have been parked in their park.

979
00:42:08,735 --> 00:42:11,405
Now you have an
community involved and want to...

980
00:42:11,447 --> 00:42:13,032
I can tell someone
hey, go to Quincy

981
00:42:13,073 --> 00:42:14,533
and get me some carrots.

982
00:42:14,575 --> 00:42:16,410
I can send my son there
and you can send your son  to my house
and get some onions.

983
00:42:16,452 --> 00:42:18,495
Gardens build community
and it's real,

984
00:42:18,537 --> 00:42:20,580
it's just a period, that's all.

985
00:42:20,622 --> 00:42:21,998
The important thing is to get
people to break bread,

986
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:24,377
to have a conversation,
community and community

987
00:42:24,418 --> 00:42:27,087
becomes more civil when
they can share

988
00:42:27,128 --> 00:42:29,923
and be healthy.

989
00:42:29,965 --> 00:42:31,383
- Through urban agriculture,

990
00:42:31,425 --> 00:42:32,843
You can find ways to overcome them
most urban diseases,

991
00:42:32,885 --> 00:42:35,470
Is that someone who is overweight,

992
00:42:35,512 --> 00:42:37,180
creating a green space, giving
working for community service.

993
00:42:37,222 --> 00:42:40,683
We also work together
restore citizens

994
00:42:40,725 --> 00:42:42,352
who left prison
and they must get it

995
00:42:42,393 --> 00:42:44,228


996
00:42:44,272 --> 00:42:46,982
community service hours, they
will do that in our garden,

997
00:42:47,023 --> 00:42:50,235
but the difference is
they don't make money

998
00:42:50,277 --> 00:42:53,363
for others, they
actually process this food

999
00:42:53,405 --> 00:42:55,157
for the community,
for themselves,

1000
00:42:55,198 --> 00:42:56,575
for their family and friends.

1001
00:42:56,617 --> 00:42:58,702
Basically this
is against the law

1002
00:42:58,743 --> 00:43:01,413
because city
has this property

1003
00:43:01,455 --> 00:43:03,040
but you have to defend it.

1004
00:43:03,082 --> 00:43:05,375
This is ridiculous because we
have this barren land

1005
00:43:05,417 --> 00:43:07,043
and all this space here

1006
00:43:07,085 --> 00:43:09,003
which functions not
any purpose.

1007
00:43:09,045 --> 00:43:10,338
I want to get something from it.

1008
00:43:10,380 --> 00:43:12,633
We are not cows, we
cannot eat grass.

1009
00:43:12,675 --> 00:43:14,343
Why don't we
grow that food...

1010
00:43:14,385 --> 00:43:16,678
like why do people
get hungry?

1011
00:43:16,720 --> 00:43:18,805
There used to be days and ages

1012
00:43:18,847 --> 00:43:21,267
when when
they see land that is not used,

1013
00:43:21,308 --> 00:43:23,810
they immediately
think about planting.

1014
00:43:23,852 --> 00:43:25,728
There are many black colors
people who want to have nothing

1015
00:43:25,770 --> 00:43:27,397
has to do with growing anything
and thinking about what we do

1016
00:43:27,438 --> 00:43:28,857
too close to slavery.

1017
00:43:28,898 --> 00:43:31,443
Older people in particular
are only one or two

1018
00:43:31,485 --> 00:43:33,320
generation from slavery,
don't want to do this.

1019
00:43:33,362 --> 00:43:35,905
Don't understand that
earth is the place

1020
00:43:35,947 --> 00:43:37,407
all wealth comes from.

1021
00:43:37,448 --> 00:43:40,368
Yes, that legacy
is with slavery,

1022
00:43:40,410 --> 00:43:42,872
You know the whole, well,
we don't do it on the ground.

1023
00:43:42,913 --> 00:43:45,582
Oh I don't do worms and I think
we have to flip the script

1024
00:43:45,623 --> 00:43:47,417
and let these people know.

1025
00:43:47,458 --> 00:43:48,918
No, this is very strong.

1026
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:53,423
You control your destiny,
the land for me is very strong.

1027
00:43:56,968 --> 00:43:59,638
I hear many people say
when you bring up healthy

1028
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,640
or being vegan or being
in form and all that

1029
00:44:01,682 --> 00:44:04,435
I think many people under
the impression you need

1030
00:44:04,477 --> 00:44:07,938
get rich or
become rich or famous.

1031
00:44:07,980 --> 00:44:10,065
Our true nature
back to Africa

1032
00:44:10,107 --> 00:44:12,483
is healthy and
environmentally friendly, you know.

1033
00:44:12,525 --> 00:44:14,235
Until today, we are very
environmentally friendly and healthy there.

1034
00:44:14,277 --> 00:44:16,238
In Africa they don't really
believe in eating food

1035
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,367
which has been cooled, they
want to choose everything fresh,

1036
00:44:19,408 --> 00:44:22,202
whether it's meat or
vegetables or fruits,

1037
00:44:22,243 --> 00:44:23,662
everything is very fresh.

1038
00:44:23,703 --> 00:44:25,247
So it's actually
part of our nature,

1039
00:44:25,288 --> 00:44:26,790
but we have already escaped from that.

1040
00:44:26,832 --> 00:44:29,502
We have more to learn far
from them in terms of wisdom,

1041
00:44:29,543 --> 00:44:33,255
frankly
happy, you know what i mean.

1042
00:44:33,297 --> 00:44:34,507
Like, I'm serious,
everyone is happy,

1043
00:44:34,548 --> 00:44:35,965
they feel good.

1044
00:44:36,007 --> 00:44:37,843
These are many lessons that I think
we can learn from here.

1045
00:44:37,885 --> 00:44:40,470
Only see our essence
in a different light.

1046
00:44:40,512 --> 00:44:43,140
They may be far away
more struggle than we do,

1047
00:44:43,182 --> 00:44:46,143
but the way they process
is very different.

1048
00:44:46,185 --> 00:44:49,397
Very charming and there are
lots of love and warmth here.

1049
00:44:55,318 --> 00:45:00,240
We don't have good toilets,
we don't have a good bathhouse,

1050
00:45:00,282 --> 00:45:03,077
You know, we only maintain.

1051
00:45:03,118 --> 00:45:07,372
You always see me
say to myself

1052
00:45:07,413 --> 00:45:10,750
I can see joy through
hurt because when it comes to

1053
00:45:10,792 --> 00:45:13,587
The ghetto you see
is a pain but everyone

1054
00:45:13,628 --> 00:45:15,797
just humble and cool.

1055
00:45:21,928 --> 00:45:24,682
Your strength,
comes from Africa.

1056
00:45:24,723 --> 00:45:28,310
The advantages you have
have more than others

1057
00:45:28,352 --> 00:45:31,647
in the real world,
is your Africa.

1058
00:45:31,688 --> 00:45:34,608
When slaves end in America,
they don't suddenly forget

1059
00:45:34,650 --> 00:45:37,610
everything they have
learn, you know what i mean.

1060
00:45:37,652 --> 00:45:39,028
And how they treat it
their child

1061
00:45:39,070 --> 00:45:40,280
and how they treat their parents

1062
00:45:40,322 --> 00:45:42,407
and how they treat them
brothers.

1063
00:45:42,448 --> 00:45:43,992
So if African Americans don't have it

1064
00:45:44,033 --> 00:45:45,993
Africa in it,
they will be like that

1065
00:45:46,035 --> 00:45:48,455
the rest of the people,
You know what I mean.

1066
00:45:48,497 --> 00:45:54,043
Their scores are all apart
obstacles and obstacles

1067
00:45:54,085 --> 00:45:56,838
and victimization and things that have been cast

1068
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,633
African-American way

1069
00:45:59,675 --> 00:46:01,050
they have been able to overcome it.

1070
00:46:01,092 --> 00:46:02,718
We will overcome.

1071
00:46:07,515 --> 00:46:11,102
Stabilizing the food system
makes it possible for great thinkers,

1072
00:46:11,145 --> 00:46:13,813
great musicians, great
physicians, great teachers

1073
00:46:13,855 --> 00:46:15,607
to come because
they were born

1074
00:46:15,648 --> 00:46:18,152
being a community
maintaining them.

1075
00:46:18,193 --> 00:46:21,447
We plant food as
fellowship with nature  with
understanding that everyone must eat.

1076
00:46:21,488 --> 00:46:23,282
Elders must eat,
children must eat,

1077
00:46:23,323 --> 00:46:24,908
but everyone must eat
the best food.

1078
00:46:24,950 --> 00:46:27,285
So we can get the best possible results  of each member
this community.

1079
00:46:27,327 --> 00:46:29,037
So what happens when we
monetize the food system?

1080
00:46:29,078 --> 00:46:31,582
The best food being
sold or distributed

1081
00:46:31,623 --> 00:46:34,710
to make sure
people so you have

1082
00:46:34,752 --> 00:46:37,128
very large populations
are malnourished.

1083
00:46:37,170 --> 00:46:39,422


1084
00:46:39,463 --> 00:46:42,425


1085
00:46:42,467 --> 00:46:45,762
If you continue to worry
about how you will eat,

1086
00:46:45,803 --> 00:46:49,307
that is the file folder
it never stops in your mind.

1087
00:46:49,348 --> 00:46:52,643
So, all your energy
goes into that problem.

1088
00:46:52,685 --> 00:46:54,938
But if you can take it
trouble from your plate,

1089
00:46:54,980 --> 00:46:57,148
then you might be able to
to start thinking,

1090
00:46:57,190 --> 00:47:00,152
oh well i want to get
training to get a job

1091
00:47:00,193 --> 00:47:04,113
and now I can put my energy
into that and finally,

1092
00:47:04,155 --> 00:47:06,992
people who have jobs, people who get training,

1093
00:47:07,033 --> 00:47:08,952
that you want
in a healthy city.

1094
00:47:08,993 --> 00:47:10,453
I say if you can't
eat, you can't think

1095
00:47:10,495 --> 00:47:11,913
and if you can't
think, you can't learn

1096
00:47:11,955 --> 00:47:13,748
and if you can't
learn, you can't produce.

1097
00:47:13,790 --> 00:47:15,917
I will give an example
a young man I met,

1098
00:47:15,958 --> 00:47:18,212
He told me that I used
to work in these parks,

1099
00:47:18,253 --> 00:47:19,547
as a volunteer and I say,

1100
00:47:19,588 --> 00:47:21,298
really, what are you doing now?

1101
00:47:21,340 --> 00:47:23,342
And he said, well I am a male nurse and I say,

1102
00:47:23,383 --> 00:47:24,802
wow, that's great.

1103
00:47:24,843 --> 00:47:27,762
How do you start being
and how can that happen?

1104
00:47:27,803 --> 00:47:30,348
And he said well, from urban
farming, from what I did

1105
00:47:30,390 --> 00:47:33,143
I learn how to care for
something outside myself.

1106
00:47:33,185 --> 00:47:35,187
This is more than one
gardening organization.

1107
00:47:35,228 --> 00:47:36,145
Why?

1108
00:47:36,187 --> 00:47:37,647
We talk about healthy eating,

1109
00:47:37,688 --> 00:47:39,650
we talk about healthy thinking,

1110
00:47:39,692 --> 00:47:43,153
we talk about healthy
finance, healthy fitness,

1111
00:47:43,195 --> 00:47:44,905
a healthy family.

1112
00:47:44,947 --> 00:47:48,158
It's very holistic
a healing approach.

1113
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:49,827
- You know in terms of finding,

1114
00:47:49,868 --> 00:47:51,995
healthy community
wherever you live,

1115
00:47:52,037 --> 00:47:53,913
like finding the group
people you can sort

1116
00:47:53,955 --> 00:47:56,165
being a partner with and when
You are around people

1117
00:47:56,207 --> 00:47:57,625
it's healthy,

1118
00:47:57,667 --> 00:47:59,210
You automatically choose
many of their habits.

1119
00:47:59,252 --> 00:48:05,258
So this is our fridge, and
so it's because we're vegetarian,

1120
00:48:05,342 --> 00:48:06,677
this is a lot of vegetables.

1121
00:48:06,718 --> 00:48:09,053
So if you succeed
people who want to treat

1122
00:48:09,095 --> 00:48:11,807
themselves well, you might
fall into that.

1123
00:48:11,848 --> 00:48:13,808
If you are around people
who wants to do something bad

1124
00:48:13,850 --> 00:48:16,270
to others and
have a negative mindset,

1125
00:48:16,312 --> 00:48:17,853
You will fall into that.

1126
00:48:17,895 --> 00:48:19,522
I think people don't eat healthy in tents  because they don't like that

1127
00:48:19,563 --> 00:48:22,317


1128
00:48:22,358 --> 00:48:24,027
and you are stuck
when you are in a tent,

1129
00:48:24,068 --> 00:48:25,695
only what is around you.

1130
00:48:25,737 --> 00:48:29,783
They don't know that person
who lives the longest

1131
00:48:29,825 --> 00:48:32,910
and the most beautiful life
many try to eat healthy.

1132
00:48:32,953 --> 00:48:36,247
I am tired of only eating
fast food like, for me,

1133
00:48:36,290 --> 00:48:39,292
from me have general knowledge
how do i grow up

1134
00:48:39,333 --> 00:48:42,545
causes when at home I will
eat vegetables and fruits.

1135
00:48:42,587 --> 00:48:45,048
I lost all that
because I went with

1136
00:48:45,090 --> 00:48:49,010
too much fried food,
too much, too much.

1137
00:48:49,052 --> 00:48:52,555
So I started thinking, bad luck,
I had to start making juice.

1138
00:48:52,597 --> 00:48:55,975
To balance it a little
or throw something good

1139
00:48:56,017 --> 00:48:58,228
inside my body because of that
is very bad in my body.

1140
00:48:58,270 --> 00:48:59,688
It becomes like that
part of my culture

1141
00:48:59,730 --> 00:49:01,523
and part of my way of life

1142
00:49:01,565 --> 00:49:03,775
and the more I continue
live like that,

1143
00:49:03,817 --> 00:49:06,612
I started paying attention to
for a certain period of time,

1144
00:49:06,653 --> 00:49:08,655
I stop eating fast food.

1145
00:49:08,697 --> 00:49:10,573
I start eating at home better.

1146
00:49:10,615 --> 00:49:12,117
I started shopping
better for myself,

1147
00:49:12,158 --> 00:49:15,203
I start doing more roast
things are more grilled.

1148
00:49:15,245 --> 00:49:17,747
Eat more vegetables,
drink more juice,

1149
00:49:17,788 --> 00:49:20,083
then I begin to notice
changes in my body.

1150
00:49:20,125 --> 00:49:21,877
Then I feel real
great about myself,

1151
00:49:21,918 --> 00:49:23,545
I lose a lot of
weight and I like,

1152
00:49:23,587 --> 00:49:27,007
wow, like this really
really works.

1153
00:49:27,048 --> 00:49:29,592
That's something
about healthy living

1154
00:49:29,633 --> 00:49:31,803
that gives you
different energy.

1155
00:49:31,845 --> 00:49:33,263
Do you know what I mean?

1156
00:49:33,305 --> 00:49:34,932
And this is not what people do
tell you and this is real,

1157
00:49:34,973 --> 00:49:37,100
this is what we tried
sharing in Juices for Life.

1158
00:49:37,142 --> 00:49:39,435
Something about life
is healthy giving your machine,

1159
00:49:39,477 --> 00:49:40,687
it's like cleaning it.

1160
00:49:40,728 --> 00:49:43,107
Juicing, eating
right and exercising

1161
00:49:43,148 --> 00:49:44,607
will help you in your life.

1162
00:49:44,648 --> 00:49:47,777
It's about that
we all can live righteously.

1163
00:49:47,818 --> 00:49:49,528
This is what is on.

1164
00:49:49,570 --> 00:49:52,865
Whoever line you like,
whatever modern pop stars you like,

1165
00:49:52,907 --> 00:49:56,202
whatever rapper you like,
whatever athlete you like,

1166
00:49:56,243 --> 00:49:57,287
This is what they do.

1167
00:49:57,328 --> 00:49:58,872
This is the key to cooling.

1168
00:49:58,913 --> 00:50:00,207
Juice.

1169
00:50:00,248 --> 00:50:01,458
Steam your food.

1170
00:50:01,500 --> 00:50:02,458
Sports.

1171
00:50:02,500 --> 00:50:03,293
Health is wealth.

1172
00:50:03,335 --> 00:50:04,502
Movement is medicine.

1173
00:50:04,543 --> 00:50:05,962
Feel rich.

1174
00:50:06,003 --> 00:50:11,175
Now I have been to Atlanta tons of times since the beginning of my 20s

1175
00:50:11,217 --> 00:50:13,178
I have come to Atlanta
for the past 20, 30 years

1176
00:50:13,220 --> 00:50:16,557
and I never knew there were
vegan urban communities

1177
00:50:16,598 --> 00:50:18,392
in the Atlanta scene.

1178
00:50:18,433 --> 00:50:22,187
I don't know that.

1179
00:50:22,228 --> 00:50:25,565
We are in Soul Vegetarian
in Midtown Atlanta,

1180
00:50:25,607 --> 00:50:27,858
This is like one of the restaurants that I have to find  when I become vegan,
because I think people,

1181
00:50:27,900 --> 00:50:29,402
they have been misinterpreted
what vegans eat,

1182
00:50:29,443 --> 00:50:31,988
that we cannot eat
the same type of food

1183
00:50:32,030 --> 00:50:33,740
or it's not good
as ordinary food.

1184
00:50:33,782 --> 00:50:36,743
And this place is a soul food restaurant,

1185
00:50:36,785 --> 00:50:39,955
who talks about that
whoever says that.

1186
00:50:39,997 --> 00:50:43,625
They get vegetables, potatoes
salad, cornbread,

1187
00:50:43,667 --> 00:50:46,293
rice and sauce, it's just that
is cooked differently.

1188
00:50:46,335 --> 00:50:49,172


1189
00:50:49,213 --> 00:50:52,508
You can't eat organically and
then go back to eating nonsense.

1190
00:50:52,550 --> 00:50:55,928
Oh, I know I made a mistake.

1191
00:50:55,970 --> 00:50:57,680
It's like I gave my own cancer
_,

1192
00:50:57,722 --> 00:51:00,558
eat this hamburger.

1193
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:05,980
I became vegan after I
walked like a fast 22 days.

1194
00:51:06,022 --> 00:51:07,565
The way your body feels
when you clean your body,

1195
00:51:07,607 --> 00:51:09,192
You can only put it
the item back there.

1196
00:51:09,233 --> 00:51:12,237
So I'm not really in the
mindset of being vegan,

1197
00:51:12,278 --> 00:51:14,613
I thought I should do it
just started eating clean.

1198
00:51:14,655 --> 00:51:17,617
But I feel very clean, I
like, I don't.

1199
00:51:17,658 --> 00:51:19,077
I go with all that.

1200
00:51:19,118 --> 00:51:20,370
And fasting
basically tells you

1201
00:51:20,412 --> 00:51:22,497
that is mostly
time when you're hungry,

1202
00:51:22,538 --> 00:51:25,083
more mentally than that
actually is a real hunger.

1203
00:51:25,125 --> 00:51:27,502
People have this
the term they say,

1204
00:51:27,543 --> 00:51:29,503
I need comfortable food.

1205
00:51:29,545 --> 00:51:32,882
And many times, people turn to food for comfort.

1206
00:51:32,923 --> 00:51:34,802
But when I come
Home of Projects,

1207
00:51:34,843 --> 00:51:36,803
You know I made
a real effort together

1208
00:51:36,845 --> 00:51:39,055
to have a holistic
change in approach.

1209
00:51:39,097 --> 00:51:41,517
And I realize that food
doesn't need to entertain me.

1210
00:51:41,558 --> 00:51:44,518
I have people, communities
activities to entertain me.

1211
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,395
You know on
search for holistic living,

1212
00:51:46,437 --> 00:51:48,565
I think one of the most important things is learning

1213
00:51:48,607 --> 00:51:51,233
to realize yourself
and I start to know myself

1214
00:51:51,275 --> 00:51:53,570
and know that I feel better
when I'm eating fish.

1215
00:51:53,612 --> 00:51:55,905
It must be clean,
delicious fish you know?

1216
00:51:55,947 --> 00:51:57,907
Don't get me wrong, some days I still go home

1217
00:51:57,948 --> 00:52:00,743
eat some catfish
that my mother bought,

1218
00:52:00,785 --> 00:52:02,995
but that's not what I
will do every day.

1219
00:52:03,037 --> 00:52:04,580
One thing they don't tell
you at the grocery store,

1220
00:52:04,622 --> 00:52:05,790
You go to the outer perimeter,

1221
00:52:05,832 --> 00:52:08,252
that's where all
good healthy food is on.

1222
00:52:08,293 --> 00:52:09,418
Inside on the shelf

1223
00:52:09,460 --> 00:52:10,962
is where all
processed food is at.

1224
00:52:11,003 --> 00:52:12,755
All things are bad for that
you, just go outside.

1225
00:52:12,797 --> 00:52:15,300
The more colors you have
in your food, the better.

1226
00:52:15,342 --> 00:52:20,847
So, I tried to put tomatoes,
onions, peppers,

1227
00:52:20,888 --> 00:52:22,848
all of these things in every food I prepare.

1228
00:52:22,890 --> 00:52:24,600
You notice how low
prices are too.

1229
00:52:24,642 --> 00:52:26,310
And most of this
price per pound,

1230
00:52:26,352 --> 00:52:28,272
and this isn't even a pound.

1231
00:52:28,313 --> 00:52:30,357
This celery is here,
for the price of Snicker,

1232
00:52:30,398 --> 00:52:32,567
this is about six or seven
snacks here.

1233
00:52:32,608 --> 00:52:34,443
For the price of one Snicker.

1234
00:52:34,485 --> 00:52:36,697
I pay attention to some of the things I usually eat

1235
00:52:36,738 --> 00:52:38,740
that I don't eat
as much more.

1236
00:52:38,782 --> 00:52:40,242
I like brisket.

1237
00:52:40,283 --> 00:52:42,910
But brisket isn't every
eating weekend for me again.

1238
00:52:42,952 --> 00:52:45,080
Other things
I always pass it,

1239
00:52:45,122 --> 00:52:47,707
pre-processed,
things that were packaged beforehand.

1240
00:52:47,748 --> 00:52:49,500
Because I don't know what is put on them,

1241
00:52:49,542 --> 00:52:51,377
I don't know what happened
to cook it,

1242
00:52:51,418 --> 00:52:53,713
but I know that I will do it
only heart healthy

1243
00:52:53,755 --> 00:52:55,923
and healthy things on my flesh.

1244
00:52:55,965 --> 00:52:57,592
I don't even know there
is the difference from

1245
00:52:57,633 --> 00:53:01,137
fried and grilled or baked,

1246
00:53:01,178 --> 00:53:03,223
I just think
everything is fried.

1247
00:53:03,265 --> 00:53:05,475
There are differences,
there is a choice.

1248
00:53:05,517 --> 00:53:08,895
You can justify eating
anything, you know.

1249
00:53:10,522 --> 00:53:11,565
I've heard some funny
lines about men

1250
00:53:11,607 --> 00:53:13,900
makes this lie about food.

1251
00:53:13,942 --> 00:53:17,028
So I can say,
I will not eat meat,

1252
00:53:17,070 --> 00:53:18,780
and I won't eat milk,

1253
00:53:18,822 --> 00:53:20,990
it gives me
discipline that helps...

1254
00:53:21,032 --> 00:53:23,368
that starts to affect
other aspects of my life.

1255
00:53:23,410 --> 00:53:24,743
And I want to make it
this point is clear,

1256
00:53:24,785 --> 00:53:27,497
it's like being vegetarian
or not vegan

1257
00:53:27,538 --> 00:53:30,125
need to say that you
all healthy paths.

1258
00:53:30,167 --> 00:53:33,002
You have to find out what things should be eaten  because at one point
when I'm vegetarian,

1259
00:53:33,043 --> 00:53:34,712
I will only eat French
French fries and salads.

1260
00:53:34,753 --> 00:53:37,673
And it's not too healthy,

1261
00:53:37,715 --> 00:53:39,175
so you have to find those things
that's good for your body.

1262
00:53:39,217 --> 00:53:42,512


1263
00:53:42,553 --> 00:53:44,973
I hope someone
woulda tell me before

1264
00:53:45,015 --> 00:53:50,020
about being vegan, like
when I was sixteen.

1265
00:53:50,062 --> 00:53:51,772
My health will be extraordinary.

1266
00:53:51,813 --> 00:53:54,440
And I can honestly say that
if you hang around and work

1267
00:53:54,482 --> 00:53:57,527
and stay in the studio
and party as much as I do,

1268
00:53:57,568 --> 00:53:59,570
this is the only lifestyle for you.

1269
00:53:59,612 --> 00:54:00,863
Yeah, your energy is really different.

1270
00:54:00,905 --> 00:54:02,490
Your brain works differently.

1271
00:54:02,532 --> 00:54:04,367
You can know the difference
even if you go to eat a lot

1272
00:54:04,408 --> 00:54:05,827
Popeye or you eat
lots of fat,

1273
00:54:05,868 --> 00:54:07,412
You will be very tired
once you get home,

1274
00:54:07,453 --> 00:54:08,913
or go to work, forget
about it, you become lazy.

1275
00:54:08,955 --> 00:54:11,667
But when you eat at a certain standard
,

1276
00:54:11,708 --> 00:54:13,042
You know it's more fun.

1277
00:54:13,083 --> 00:54:14,335
As you find
someone who cooks it properly

1278
00:54:14,377 --> 00:54:16,630
and the taste is not oily
it is not heavy.

1279
00:54:16,672 --> 00:54:17,880
- I like coming to this place,

1280
00:54:17,922 --> 00:54:20,383
My Two Cents because I
like energy here.

1281
00:54:20,425 --> 00:54:21,927
The food, people
cook with love.

1282
00:54:21,968 --> 00:54:24,512
My Two Cents is in
community in Los Angeles

1283
00:54:24,553 --> 00:54:28,140
where people from within
cities can have access to it.

1284
00:54:28,182 --> 00:54:29,225
And I like this restaurant.

1285
00:54:29,267 --> 00:54:30,852
The vibration is correct.

1286
00:54:30,893 --> 00:54:32,645
- I am chef Alisa Reynolds.

1287
00:54:32,687 --> 00:54:34,730
Originally from Los Angeles.

1288
00:54:34,772 --> 00:54:37,567
I have done an event for
everyone from Barack Obama,

1289
00:54:37,608 --> 00:54:41,570
Oprah Winfrey, Ordinary,
Reggie Bush, Matt Kemp.

1290
00:54:41,612 --> 00:54:43,238
You know this is an
ancient ancient proverb,

1291
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:45,408
You enter your two cents.

1292
00:54:45,450 --> 00:54:46,785
So this is my two cents,

1293
00:54:46,827 --> 00:54:49,997
My version of what traditional American food is

1294
00:54:50,038 --> 00:54:51,622
from the South is.

1295
00:54:51,665 --> 00:54:55,418
I see the number of people who are dying of diabetes  and overweight and I want
to do something different

1296
00:54:55,460 --> 00:54:57,878
but I always feel you can't
change someone sharply,

1297
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:03,092
it's about changing
people's thoughts

1298
00:55:03,133 --> 00:55:04,052
without changing the dish.

1299
00:55:04,093 --> 00:55:06,387
It doesn't work
change people instantly,

1300
00:55:06,428 --> 00:55:08,390
it changes it to them
new things and slowly,

1301
00:55:08,432 --> 00:55:13,437
it can change people's lives.

1302
00:55:13,478 --> 00:55:14,895
See the problem, you
Must be able to defuse it

1303
00:55:14,937 --> 00:55:16,438
and don't know, you must
prepare it so that people

1304
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:17,898
can't distinguish
in it or automatically

1305
00:55:17,940 --> 00:55:19,983
Your brain just closes it.

1306
00:55:20,027 --> 00:55:21,527
I have a partner who comes,
and he eats gumbo

1307
00:55:21,568 --> 00:55:23,780
and he is like a man, this is
very tasty sausage.

1308
00:55:23,822 --> 00:55:25,990


1309
00:55:26,032 --> 00:55:28,033
And the whole family
around and I like,

1310
00:55:28,075 --> 00:55:31,705
oh, that's vegan sausage
and he stopped chewing

1311
00:55:31,747 --> 00:55:33,540
and his wife, all of them
start laughing.

1312
00:55:33,582 --> 00:55:37,668
And he is like, he is so
towards anything that is vegetarian,

1313
00:55:37,710 --> 00:55:39,420
he only assumes
is meat.

1314
00:55:39,462 --> 00:55:41,338
That's mental, huh?

1315
00:55:41,380 --> 00:55:44,508
That is the mental reality
people are just stuck with

1316
00:55:44,550 --> 00:55:46,302
from generation to generation
and generation.

1317
00:55:46,343 --> 00:55:49,805
I think it's just
the affected community.

1318
00:55:49,847 --> 00:55:53,308
Tasty good food
has a healthy choice for it.

1319
00:55:53,350 --> 00:55:56,645
If I try to defend it
tradition that is known to people.

1320
00:55:56,687 --> 00:55:59,732
And change the method,
it will change the way

1321
00:55:59,773 --> 00:56:02,027
they will see it in general.

1322
00:56:02,068 --> 00:56:03,360
But I have to tell them
afterwards.

1323
00:56:03,403 --> 00:56:05,238
You did it for you
first, you know?

1324
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:06,823
You don't do it
to offend anyone,

1325
00:56:06,865 --> 00:56:08,658
You don't do it
prove to someone,

1326
00:56:08,700 --> 00:56:10,827
like when people like,
oh are you pescatarian?

1327
00:56:10,868 --> 00:56:12,370
I like, no, I only eat fish.

1328
00:56:12,412 --> 00:56:14,038
No matter what you call it,

1329
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:17,083
You know what the purpose is
You do it for.

1330
00:56:17,125 --> 00:56:20,043
- I say start now, start slowly,

1331
00:56:20,087 --> 00:56:23,005
if one day a week
you try something new.

1332
00:56:23,047 --> 00:56:25,800
Don't go home and
eat a pot of rice.

1333
00:56:25,842 --> 00:56:27,177
Or a pot of spaghetti.

1334
00:56:27,218 --> 00:56:29,387
Eat a salad with the chicken

1335
00:56:29,428 --> 00:56:31,680
or with the steak
or with the fish.

1336
00:56:31,722 --> 00:56:35,393
Processed vegetables, tell you
my mother wants male vegetables.

1337
00:56:35,435 --> 00:56:36,853
And I just ate this whole meal.

1338
00:56:36,895 --> 00:56:39,855
I don't feel tired,
sleepy or not at all.

1339
00:56:39,897 --> 00:56:42,608
I have just had soul food and
I am not here like this.

1340
00:56:42,650 --> 00:56:44,110
I'm ready to go.

1341
00:56:44,152 --> 00:56:46,695
Leave here and go to
studio and do me,

1342
00:56:46,737 --> 00:56:48,197
so that's for me.

1343
00:56:48,238 --> 00:56:51,408
I don't want anything
it will slow me down.

1344
00:56:51,450 --> 00:56:54,078
A friend eats an elephant
ass and he's glad you know?

1345
00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:56,957
And good, your unique friends
people with special genes.

1346
00:56:56,998 --> 00:56:59,125
That doesn't mean, oh, you can smoke,

1347
00:56:59,167 --> 00:57:01,043
my father lives to 100
smoking.

1348
00:57:01,085 --> 00:57:03,463
Your father is very special.

1349
00:57:03,505 --> 00:57:04,297
I don't know how to say
, what is that,

1350
00:57:04,338 --> 00:57:05,548
what will tell you.

1351
00:57:05,590 --> 00:57:08,092
You are now if you do it
well, with a bad diet,

1352
00:57:08,133 --> 00:57:09,885
if you are fine
and you don't succeed.

1353
00:57:09,927 --> 00:57:11,553
Just thinking you can be better.

1354
00:57:11,595 --> 00:57:13,055
We can all be better.

1355
00:57:13,097 --> 00:57:15,057
Since the last interview,
we will be better,

1356
00:57:15,098 --> 00:57:19,728
Hustle Fit is a real
brand in Houston now.

1357
00:57:19,770 --> 00:57:21,898
Wherever you go,
around Texas

1358
00:57:21,940 --> 00:57:23,900
You can see people
swinging the Hustle Fit

1359
00:57:23,942 --> 00:57:25,277
brand  and support the movement

1360
00:57:25,318 --> 00:57:26,777
and become part
of the movement.

1361
00:57:26,820 --> 00:57:29,113
What is Hustle Fit for me,
Hustle Fit is a lifestyle,

1362
00:57:29,155 --> 00:57:31,240
we want to always
emphasize the crowd.

1363
00:57:31,282 --> 00:57:34,202
We place crowds in large numbers
and fit in lowercase

1364
00:57:34,243 --> 00:57:36,328
so that people can realize
_ hustle in all things

1365
00:57:36,370 --> 00:57:38,205
You do if
is in the gym,

1366
00:57:38,247 --> 00:57:41,125
is it at work,
is it education-wise,

1367
00:57:41,167 --> 00:57:42,752
You go to school,
try to get that title,

1368
00:57:42,793 --> 00:57:44,087
for college, you know.

1369
00:57:44,128 --> 00:57:45,588
Everything you do, you
must hurry for it.

1370
00:57:45,630 --> 00:57:47,798
And what is that, every day
you try to be better

1371
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:49,008
than you yesterday.

1372
00:57:49,050 --> 00:57:50,510
I can't call
myself a cheat

1373
00:57:50,552 --> 00:57:53,428
if I don't want to
take care too.

1374
00:57:53,470 --> 00:57:54,597
I think it's 50/50.

1375
00:57:54,638 --> 00:57:56,975
I think it's about guarding yourself  and after you leave the gym,
go and go alone

1376
00:57:57,017 --> 00:58:00,270
and find out how to be
successful in this world.

1377
00:58:00,312 --> 00:58:03,105
Not many people
look like me,

1378
00:58:03,147 --> 00:58:04,732
can go out and see
different parts of the world.

1379
00:58:04,773 --> 00:58:08,277
I have some friends
are still trapped in that circle but,

1380
00:58:08,318 --> 00:58:10,572
they see me doing something
it doesn't sell drugs

1381
00:58:10,613 --> 00:58:13,240
and I am not locked up,
I am not dead or in prison.

1382
00:58:13,282 --> 00:58:16,452
And I go back and
I can touch them

1383
00:58:16,493 --> 00:58:18,245


1384
00:58:18,287 --> 00:58:20,415
and show where
I am and inspire them

1385
00:58:20,457 --> 00:58:22,292
want to be better
and do better.

1386
00:58:22,333 --> 00:58:24,960
And they realize that happened
are out of the hood

1387
00:58:25,002 --> 00:58:27,130
and you can make it
do an honest life.

1388
00:58:27,172 --> 00:58:29,215
I stop smoking,
I give up drinking

1389
00:58:29,257 --> 00:58:31,092
and I gave up
cheating on my food.

1390
00:58:31,133 --> 00:58:33,093
You know without everything, I feel lighter,

1391
00:58:33,135 --> 00:58:35,012
I feel like, you know,
My mood is improving

1392
00:58:35,053 --> 00:58:36,847
and I have a lot of things done.

1393
00:58:36,890 --> 00:58:38,390
- We inspire people.

1394
00:58:38,432 --> 00:58:40,643
Whether it's finished
social media,

1395
00:58:40,685 --> 00:58:43,730
through the
fitness competition that we do.

1396
00:58:43,772 --> 00:58:45,690
You know the feedback
we get from people,

1397
00:58:45,732 --> 00:58:48,985
Hey, I have noticed you
you and you motivated me,

1398
00:58:49,027 --> 00:58:50,612
I've died in life,

1399
00:58:50,653 --> 00:58:52,322
and it's already difficult but
just watching you

1400
00:58:52,363 --> 00:58:55,783
live the day of your life for
days, and really reply,

1401
00:58:55,825 --> 00:58:58,452
it only gives me hope and
encourages me to move forward.

1402
00:58:58,493 --> 00:59:00,330
People come
me randomly and say,

1403
00:59:00,372 --> 00:59:03,290
We see how far you
come, we see how you change

1404
00:59:03,332 --> 00:59:07,378
since returning on that day, and that
motivates us to enter the gym

1405
00:59:07,420 --> 00:59:09,338
and start working
ourselves and get better.

1406
00:59:09,380 --> 00:59:10,840
What better service can
you do than services

1407
00:59:10,882 --> 00:59:13,760
Other people help them
change their lifestyle

1408
00:59:13,802 --> 00:59:16,137
and once that happens human
is just taking off

1409
00:59:16,178 --> 00:59:18,347
and I haven't looked back since.

1410
00:59:18,388 --> 00:59:19,473
- Like everything,

1411
00:59:19,515 --> 00:59:20,892
if you want
success in everything,

1412
00:59:20,933 --> 00:59:24,062
You must have discipline,
You must have a drive

1413
00:59:24,103 --> 00:59:26,355
and you know it's just about
challenging yourself, mate.

1414
00:59:26,397 --> 00:59:27,565
- This is not easy.

1415
00:59:27,607 --> 00:59:29,025
And that requires
a lot of discipline,

1416
00:59:29,067 --> 00:59:30,527
You must have it
self-motivation,

1417
00:59:30,568 --> 00:59:32,612
where you have to
set that mindset,

1418
00:59:32,653 --> 00:59:34,530
get around the right person.

1419
00:59:34,572 --> 00:59:36,615
Some of those people
will encourage you to become

1420
00:59:36,657 --> 00:59:39,202
at best and
the sky is the limit.

1421
00:59:39,243 --> 00:59:41,412
Feeling rich is
just mentally,

1422
00:59:41,453 --> 00:59:44,498
spiritually physically,
you know, at your best.

1423
00:59:44,540 --> 00:59:45,625
- My thing is this.

1424
00:59:45,667 --> 00:59:47,793
You know Fat Joe
your whole life.

1425
00:59:47,835 --> 00:59:49,087
Fat Joe.

1426
00:59:49,128 --> 00:59:51,672
You know it
one million years.

1427
00:59:51,713 --> 00:59:54,217
If he loses weight,
you can lose weight.

1428
00:59:54,258 --> 00:59:56,593
I am not special
there is no form or shape.

1429
00:59:56,635 --> 00:59:58,847
I'm not superman.

1430
00:59:58,888 --> 01:00:00,765
I'm the same as you.

1431
01:00:00,807 --> 01:00:02,058
If I take you in
gym now,

1432
01:00:02,100 --> 01:00:03,893
I will do that
the same thing you did.

1433
01:00:03,935 --> 01:00:07,063
Nothing extraordinary,
I don't run mountains,

1434
01:00:07,105 --> 01:00:09,940
doing back flips, I don't
occur on a treadmill

1435
01:00:09,982 --> 01:00:12,610
for a little 25
minutes, watch TV.

1436
01:00:15,780 --> 01:00:16,905
And you know, I'm done.

1437
01:00:16,947 --> 01:00:18,532
I work.

1438
01:00:18,573 --> 01:00:24,163
Since our last interview,
I have lost 50 pounds in total.

1439
01:00:24,205 --> 01:00:25,415
Whoo

1440
01:00:25,457 --> 01:00:27,083
Benefits for having
a healthier lifestyle

1441
01:00:27,125 --> 01:00:30,795
are your children
live a healthier lifestyle.

1442
01:00:30,837 --> 01:00:32,922
We really stick to them
about portion control,

1443
01:00:32,963 --> 01:00:35,800
about vegetables, because we
don't grow with it.

1444
01:00:35,842 --> 01:00:37,427
We suffer from diabetes in our family.

1445
01:00:37,468 --> 01:00:39,387
My father graduated
away from Cancer.

1446
01:00:39,428 --> 01:00:42,682
We violate the
cycle with the future of our children.

1447
01:00:42,723 --> 01:00:44,267
You are now, they will be
with their children.

1448
01:00:44,308 --> 01:00:46,435
Maybe they won't have it
suffer from diabetes,

1449
01:00:46,477 --> 01:00:48,478
maybe they will make it
healthy choice.

1450
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:49,980
- I want people to know.

1451
01:00:50,022 --> 01:00:51,773
I don't want them to have it
this health problem, knowing,

1452
01:00:51,815 --> 01:00:53,902
damn men I can
stop this 20 years ago

1453
01:00:53,943 --> 01:00:56,195
if only I wanted to
exercise a little more,

1454
01:00:56,237 --> 01:00:58,740
Submitted by:
www.subtitlecinema.com

1455
01:00:58,782 --> 01:00:59,948
I think that's the problem,

1456
01:00:59,990 --> 01:01:00,950
people don't want
change lifestyle,

1457
01:01:00,992 --> 01:01:02,452
they just want to look good.

1458
01:01:02,493 --> 01:01:04,078
Well it's hard
works to look good.

1459
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:05,830
When you go to work and
you finish exercising,

1460
01:01:05,872 --> 01:01:08,123
You may be sick, but
you will feel good,

1461
01:01:08,165 --> 01:01:09,292
on the stage too.

1462
01:01:09,333 --> 01:01:10,627
I bounce,
jump around,

1463
01:01:10,668 --> 01:01:12,878
doing things can't
do when I'm big.

1464
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:14,380
I don't run out of breath.

1465
01:01:14,422 --> 01:01:16,632
I can still give everything and
gives poor performance.

1466
01:01:16,673 --> 01:01:18,802
I know the hard ones
work first to take

1467
01:01:18,843 --> 01:01:21,178
to shake the show.

1468
01:01:21,220 --> 01:01:23,055
And now it's almost
like I glide.

1469
01:01:23,097 --> 01:01:24,515
And I laugh.

1470
01:01:24,557 --> 01:01:26,267
Jordan seven games.

1471
01:01:26,308 --> 01:01:27,727
Laugh, I'm angry I laugh.

1472
01:01:27,768 --> 01:01:29,228
Ha!

1473
01:01:29,270 --> 01:01:32,190
Turning on whoo, I'm on the other side like what?

1474
01:01:32,232 --> 01:01:35,025
I think entertainers,
especially rapper getting fitter,

1475
01:01:35,067 --> 01:01:37,153
50 Cent, Fat Joe, myself,

1476
01:01:37,195 --> 01:01:38,653
I think surely
will provide

1477
01:01:38,695 --> 01:01:41,032
some king of motivation for someone
when people see that,

1478
01:01:41,073 --> 01:01:43,492
then they can see, okay, fine
if he can do it, I can do it.

1479
01:01:43,533 --> 01:01:45,537
We can take
responsibility to say,

1480
01:01:45,578 --> 01:01:47,538
this is my lifestyle
and people start

1481
01:01:47,580 --> 01:01:48,832
lean towards it.

1482
01:01:48,873 --> 01:01:50,500
And if they already have
sort of success,

1483
01:01:50,542 --> 01:01:52,210
like let's use Drake
or even 2 Chainz,

1484
01:01:52,252 --> 01:01:53,585
You look at him
Instagram, he's like,

1485
01:01:53,627 --> 01:01:54,920
Look at this Brussels sprout.

1486
01:01:54,962 --> 01:01:56,380
Look at this, you know.

1487
01:01:56,422 --> 01:01:58,298
He eats super
and he shows it to the item.

1488
01:01:58,340 --> 01:02:01,177
You boast and boast to them
about keeping your body properly,

1489
01:02:01,218 --> 01:02:03,678
guard your monastery rights
the same way we boast

1490
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:09,060
and brag about gems,
cars, women.

1491
01:02:09,102 --> 01:02:12,688
You cannot enjoy it all
if you are not in good health.

1492
01:02:12,730 --> 01:02:15,357
Maybe everyone doesn't
go, yo that's cool,

1493
01:02:15,398 --> 01:02:16,900
because they don't
see a dollar in it.

1494
01:02:16,942 --> 01:02:18,318
But it's not about
one dollar in it.

1495
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:19,862
You are your largest dollar.

1496
01:02:19,903 --> 01:02:22,030
If your health is bad, I don't care how much money you have.

1497
01:02:22,072 --> 01:02:24,367
If you are in the hospital, you can't enjoy it.

1498
01:02:24,408 --> 01:02:27,245
I can enjoy $ 20 in
good health more than

1499
01:02:27,287 --> 01:02:30,122
You can enjoy
$ 20,000 in bad health.

1500
01:02:30,163 --> 01:02:32,167
It won't tell you
the easiest thing to do,

1501
01:02:32,208 --> 01:02:35,587
but that's the greatest thing
that I have done in my life.

1502
01:02:35,628 --> 01:02:39,048
Now I lose 100 pounds,
I enjoy life.

1503
01:02:39,090 --> 01:02:42,050
Instead of wishing I didn't die because I'm overweight

1504
01:02:42,092 --> 01:02:43,718
and because if
the way I eat.

1505
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:47,140
I see my body as something
that I have to allow me

1506
01:02:47,182 --> 01:02:49,933
to be healthy, to be
intact, because of my body

1507
01:02:49,975 --> 01:02:53,813
now no longer a
obligation, but an asset.

1508
01:02:53,855 --> 01:02:57,858
So we did my father first
interview for this documentary

1509
01:02:57,900 --> 01:03:00,612
he is a little overweight
and he has several health habits

1510
01:03:00,653 --> 01:03:04,073
that the doctor has tried
to talk to him about.

1511
01:03:04,115 --> 01:03:07,243
And he doesn't really listen
and every time we try

1512
01:03:07,285 --> 01:03:09,495
to make it pay
attention, he will like,

1513
01:03:09,537 --> 01:03:12,623
okay well let's see if
is wrong and at any time

1514
01:03:12,665 --> 01:03:15,000
It turns out there
is not something concrete

1515
01:03:15,042 --> 01:03:17,002
which we can designate
to make it stop doing

1516
01:03:17,043 --> 01:03:19,755
certain things, eat
certain types of food

1517
01:03:19,797 --> 01:03:22,758
and the like
things, and then, um.

1518
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:27,222
And then out
nothing, he has,

1519
01:03:27,263 --> 01:03:29,432
I'm not sure what you are calling
, but like a diabetes attack

1520
01:03:29,473 --> 01:03:34,978
where he experienced a coma
and when he woke up from it

1521
01:03:35,020 --> 01:03:37,147
a few days later,
the doctor gave him a warning

1522
01:03:37,190 --> 01:03:39,067
and tell him that if
you do anything

1523
01:03:39,108 --> 01:03:43,153
we told you not to do it, one
more time, it could be that.

1524
01:03:43,195 --> 01:03:45,363
As this is yours,
is basically your last warning,

1525
01:03:45,405 --> 01:03:47,700
like this, it should be
being a wake up call.

1526
01:03:47,742 --> 01:03:48,952
And my father listens.

1527
01:03:48,993 --> 01:03:53,122
Since January 8
last year 2015,

1528
01:03:53,163 --> 01:03:58,502
I was told that from
because I ate too much

1529
01:03:58,543 --> 01:04:04,467
in sugar or sweet foods,
that I'm & apos; desperately dead.

1530
01:04:04,508 --> 01:04:07,512
I got that wake up call
and I took advantage of it.

1531
01:04:07,553 --> 01:04:09,013
And I heard it loud and clear

1532
01:04:09,055 --> 01:04:13,683
and I haven't experienced a decrease in
alcohol in 19 months.

1533
01:04:13,725 --> 01:04:18,647
And I feel like 19 years old
, clear like a bell.

1534
01:04:18,688 --> 01:04:20,148
I have never been more
creative in my life

1535
01:04:20,190 --> 01:04:23,652
and I will never come back,
I didn't miss it at all.

1536
01:04:23,693 --> 01:04:25,153
And that kind of thing
a proof to like,
