Lustmia Top Health Tips For Women Over 40

Peace and blessings.

Welcome back to the channel once again where we talk all things health and healing from a holistic perspective, and today will be no different.

Today, we're going to talk about the major health risk factors that women over 40 need to be concerned about, especially African-American women, okay?

And I'll talk about why that is so in just a second, but the reason why I'm creating this video is because there's a lot of things that are being talked about in health, but the unfortunate thing is they're not being talked about in such a way to help people understand what are the primary causes of these leading causes of not only disease, but also death as well too.

And I think if we start to look at these things in a collective way, instead of looking at them separately, we'll see how they're all connected together.

So, what I want to do is dive into six major health risk factors that again are affecting women over their 40, especially African-American women.

And then, I'm going to give you some advice at the end in terms of like how you navigate this, okay?

So that you don't become a statistic as it relates to these six health risk factors that are affecting women at an exponential rate, okay?

Especially African-American women.

And so I'll give you a little bit of, of guidance at the end, but I want this to sort of be, you know, at least a step-by-step platform where you can at least say, 'All right, I start here'

in terms of like how to look at my health.

Also, how to plan for my health if I'm under 40 as well too.

And also, what do I do on an annual basis when I go get a checkup, when I, when I get the results?

What do I do then?

Because right now, the only option that they give is 'what do you do then'

is a prescription or a surgery.

And in my opinion, that is not healing at all.

That is only treatment, and treatment that never heals the body. Okay.

And so again, we're going to get into these big health risk factors.

The biggest that I think again are the primary causes of why there's so much suffering with disease.

Okay.

So number one, number one, number one is cardiovascular disease.

Okay.

59% of African American women over the age of, over age of 20.

Okay.

I'm going to repeat that one more time: 59% of African American women over the age of 20 have some form of heart disease or cardiovascular disease.

That's 60% of the women.

Population now, here's here's the most staggering statistic.

It is the number one cause of death for African-American women.

Okay, the number one cause of death.

Now, if I were to ask that question, I often get all different types of responses in terms of, like, what do you think the biggest issue around women's health?

I get breast cancer.

I get ovarian cancer.

I get all these autoimmune conditions again, all these things we'll talk about.

But the number one cause of death for African-American women cardiovascular disease.

Each year, more women die from heart disease than breast cancer, lung cancer, and strokes combined.

Okay, combine all those together.

And each year, more women die of cardiovascular disease.

So you can see why this is very important in terms of like understanding where the

Primary focus should be the primary focus needs to be on cardiovascular health, okay.

That's the primary focus in women, it needs to be on cardiovascular health, okay.

And there are different levels to that too.

There's a level of health that surrounds nutrition, there's a level of health that surrounds adequate exercise, and there's a level of health that requires spiritual healing heart as well, you know.

There's a lot of levels to go there, but that should be the primary focus: cardiovascular disease, diseases of the heart, okay, which is hugely important, and I always talk about this because I had the perfect example.

i was working with a woman and she was struggling with heart disease and we did everything for six months she did everything right she changed her diet she started to exercise um she started to manage the things that were stressing her in her life she did everything right and no improvement and finally finally after taking care of the the spiritual work that she needed to do on her heart then she finally started to heal okay and a lot of people discount that one but it's really important to know and understand that a lot of times you have to this is why i say you have to take a holistic approach you know it wasn't that the diet

Wasn't important, of course it was.

It wasn't that she didn't need to exercise, of course she did, but it's a holistic picture and so she needed all those things to play a role, including her spiritual and emotional health as well too.

And once she did that, there was a switch that turned on and the healing began, okay.

So hugely important: the number one cause of death cardiovascular disease for African-American women, and 59% of African-American women over the ages of age of 20 have cardiovascular disease.

Notice I said 'age of 20', not '40'

or '50' or '60'.

So, this cardiovascular disease is beginning probably in their teenage years.

Okay, so hugely important number two risk factor: obesity.

Obesity here's the thing about and this isn't fat shaming; this isn't me trying to single people out; this is not that, okay?

What this is is helping you understand that obesity or being overweight increases the risk for all mortality—that what I mean by that statement—is being obese increases your risk for all causes of death, including heart disease, cancer, um, stroke, autoimmune condition.

It increases the risk for all of those.

So this is why it's so important to maintain a healthy weight, and in the African-American women community: four out of five women are either

Overweight or obese, that means 80% of women are either overweight or obese.

Now, let me tell you this: a huge part of this, a huge part of this, is the addiction to food.

Reason why the food is addictive is because they make it addictive.

Okay, but then there's another, there's several other layers as well too, where sometimes there's emotional eating because of you know, uh, trauma and um, situations that happen in life, stress.

And so again, this is why it goes back to that spiritual, emotional healing as well too, because then we can heal that part of ourselves as well too.

So, obesity and obesity usually,

that's realized by just Pamela nói donc hỗ ע blaming behand Emergency food every day because andhem other emotional healing as well too, because then we can heal that part of them as well, hold up a moment let me go back to the example, you know the reason that food is addictive what is it the most addictive thing because they make it addictive okay,

But then there are another there are several other layers as well too where sometimes there's emotional eating because of you know trauma and um situations that happen in life, stress and so again this was why goes back to that spiritual emotional healing as well too.

Another huge health risk factor that increases the risk for all causes of death.

Okay.

And 80% of African-American women are either overweight or obese.

Okay.

Number three, cancer.

Okay.

Cancer, specifically breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death.

Okay.

For African-American women.

And as a matter of fact, African-American women are 41% more likely to die of breast cancer compared to their counterparts.

41% more likely to die of breast cancer.

Okay.

And also lung cancer is the second leading cause of death.

Okay.

And colorectal cancer, they're 20% more likely to develop and 40% more likely to die from it. Okay.

Well, which is what unfortunately my grandmother died from.

And so that's why this hits home for me because I realized a huge part of health goes through the gut.

And if you start to look at the food today, it will explain very clearly why colorectal cancer is on the rise.

And if you look at the African-American diet, our diets are the worst in the world.

Okay.

Our diets – it's a prescription for heart disease, a prescription for obesity, and a prescription for cancer; the diet that we eat in the African-American community.

So it's hugely important.

We know that there are things that we can do to prevent cancer as well too.

Cancer isn't just a genetic disease.

Only 5% of cancers, and they are the rarest forms of cancer that do not include breast cancer.

Okay.

Reproductive cancers.

Okay.

Only the rarest cancers are actually genetic.

The rest are lifestyle.

Okay.

So this is something that we can do something about.

Alright.

The next one, autoimmune conditions, autoimmune conditions.

Autoimmune conditions can include things like Hashimoto's, rheumatoid arthritis, MS, or multiple sclerosis, irritable bowel disease, psoriasis, vitiligo, which we're starting to see increase exponentially as well too, and type 1 diabetes.

These include the autoimmune conditions.

78% of autoimmune cases, 78% are women.

So almost 80% of people who have an autoimmune condition are women.

So women are affected exponentially compared to men.

Okay.

Okay.

And the reason why that's so important is because, when you start to look at certain autoimmune conditions like lupus, 90% of lupus cases are African-American women.

60% of scleroderma cases are African-American women.

So it's hugely important that we start to look at these autoimmune conditions that are greatly affecting not only women, but exponentially in some forms, African-American women.

And we have to start paying attention to our gut health because most autoimmune conditions start with a leaky gut.

Okay.

So when you start to see, you have digestive issues, you know, around bloating, gas, irritable bowel disease, et cetera, et cetera.

You start to have these acid reflux.

When you start to see these things, these are the telltale signs that are leading you to that.

Allergies, food allergies that come out of nowhere.

You never had them and all of a sudden you have them.

Okay.

So autoimmune conditions, a huge health risk factor.

Again, this is something that we really have to pay attention to.

The next one is stroke.

It is the third leading cause of death for African-American women.

And African-American women are twice as likely to have a stroke and hypertension.

So they're 50% more likely to have a stroke and hypertension.

Okay.

So, if the blood pressure is high, which is the, the number one risk factor for a stroke.

Okay.

Then we've got to address that, whether that be through possible deficiencies in potassium and magnesium and calcium, or if that's through toxicity in the form of the kidneys not properly eliminating enough uric acid from the body, or a stagnant lymphatic system, whatever it may be.

We have to examine that. Okay.

So that's how we go back to the beginning to work ourselves back towards a solution.

All right.

And then the last one, in terms of the biggest health risks, is reproductive issues.

Okay.

And one of the telltale signs of potential reproductive issues down the line is an early menses.

So having your period very, very early.

Okay.

Around nine, I've seen it as early as eight in young women.

This could be a potential for later on in life, developing things like fibroids.

And if you look at fibroids in the African-American woman population or just women in general, 80% of women will have fibroids by the age of 50, and about 25% will have fibroids by the age of 25.

That means when you start to look at what happens as a result of getting these fibroids, there's a huge lot, a huge amount of suffering that comes along with it because of the pain, because of the discomfort.

Um, because of, you know, what it does to the menstrual cycle as well too.

And the other big thing is this: means that especially for African-American women, they are two to three times more likely to have a hysterectomy, which is a complete removal of the reproductive organs in some cases, and a partial removal in others.

And the reason why that's so important is because women often take this option, because it's the one that's going to be thrown out there too early.

And then the other thing that the reason why they often take this option is because of - it's a huge amount of suffering and pain that they have to go through with these fibroids, in some, in many cases.

Okay.

And so it's important to know and understand that there are things that can be done to help women with this, in terms of helping them understand what they can do at, on a maintenance schedule from a holistic standpoint, to address these things.

So I'm going to give you a little bit of advice that I hope you'll sort of navigate this space so that you can get to a point where you start to reduce these health risk factors.

And that way, you can live not only a longer life but also a higher quality life by not developing these risk factors that I just talked about.

Okay.

So, number one, stress management - you gotta manage stress.

You gotta manage stress.

That's hugely important.

Okay.

Number two, women who go into stressful environments and then come out of them.

And when they came out of the stressful environment, the fibroids reduced in size.

Okay.

When they went back into it, the fibroids began to grow. Okay.

So it's hugely important to understand that stress can literally cause this ease the same way it could cause an ulcer.

It can literally cause your fibroids to go grow.

Okay.

Number two, supreme nutrition.

We've got to get back to eating real foods.

All right.

Number three, eating normal, raw, vegan foods.

Throw out those fake foods throughout the whole car, the refined carbohydrates; get back to eating one-ingredient foods.

Okay, kale, apple, you know, avocado, et cetera.

Get back to eating original foods.

Okay.

Number three, at your checkups, you want to always check for your hormone levels, okay.

All three estrogens. Okay.

Not just one type of estrogen, all three estrogens.

You also want to check your insulin levels as well.

Well, too, because insulin is a hormone, okay.

You also want to check um, you know, for deficiencies as well, too.

Are you deficient in iron?

Are you deficient in vitamin D?

Okay, find out what the deficiencies are, too, because that's going to be your job to correct those deficiencies through supreme nutrition and then possibly through added on supplementation as well, too.

All right, and then also, you got you have to live an active lifestyle.

We got to get out of these sedentary lifestyles that are literally creating disease.

And the reason why I say a movement lifestyle instead of exercise is because if you go to the gym one or two days out of the week for one hour that means out of a possible 144 hours during the week, you essentially got four hours of active movement as opposed to the other 140 hours or potentially sedentary, okay?

There's no balance in that.

So, you have to have an active lifestyle; it's not just about going to the gym; it's about your life being a life of movement, okay?

The other thing that's going to be hugely important is detoxification because many of these conditions that I talked about earlier the autoimmune conditions, the stroke, the cancer, the obesity, the cardiovascular

disease the reproductive disorders or issues are coming from an accumulation of toxins in the body and as i said before the menstrual cycle is a form of detoxification it's one of the pathways to eliminate toxicity from the body excess hormones that aren't needed and so it's important to know and understand that women are far more sensitive to toxins especially african-american women when we're talking about toxins that are coming because they're normally coming from the from the food the cosmetic products the hygiene products the makeup the the hair care products all of these products african-american women

Are far more sensitive to these toxins compared to other groups, so that's why it's so important to realize that you have to use natural products instead of using these lotions that have phthalates and parabens in them.

You have to use shea butter, okay?

Get your the natural toothpaste, okay?

All things need to be natural, okay?

So not only going from a standpoint of eliminating the things that are causing toxicity, but you got to get these toxins out of the body, you know.

And again, this is why a full-body detox is so important.

This is why so many women benefit from doing my detox and have noticed that after doing the detox, they had

A seven or eight-day period that turned into a three-day period, okay.

Which is a huge shift, okay.

It's saying that the toxins in the body are so much less that you only need three days to remove what's there, okay.

Hugely important.

And the last thing as I mentioned before, the spiritual healing is hugely important.

You got to do the spiritual and emotional work because that especially for women, because women are so intuitive and they're also so uh empathic, they receive so much energy that they don't realize that they're receiving, and a lot of that energy is negative.

They harbor a lot of emotions in their body instead of expressing

Them and those emotions turn into toxins in the body, so it's hugely important that you have to do the healing work.

Because when you do the spiritual work and you cleanse and heal spiritually, it always manifests itself physically as well too.

So I hope this has been helpful.

I hope this has been a sort of a a road map to help you understand what's coming.

I'd love to hear from you if you have any questions.

You understand that going out of 2023 into 2024, it'll give you some guidance in terms of what you need to be doing to become a huge participant in your healing process and to become, you know.

The master of your health, instead of handing your health over to somebody, and allowing them to make decisions for you.

Okay.

So, until the next time, peace and blessings.
