YOUNG LIVING TRAINING TAPE #2

DR. DON GARY YOUNG


We present for your enjoyment and instruction the following Training Tape No. 2 by Dr. D. Gary Young Dr. D. Gary Young - Incredib e !or d Tour I just want to ta e a minute and share with you from the rooftop of the world that the last 2! wee s ha"e been absolutely spellbinding# e$citing# wonderfully interesting# and incredible in the disco"eries we ha"e made. We ha"e tra"eled from %rance to &ngland# &ngland to 'man# 'man to (a istan# and then from (a istan to Northern (a istan to )un*aland +the land of the oldest,li"ing people recorded on earth- where we spent three mar"elous days with these people. Their country has been absolutely one of the highlights of my life. It has been an area where I ha"e had a tremendous desire to study and research for the past 2. years e"er since a friend of mine# Dr. /ay )offman# made his tra"els into )un*aland in the mid 0.1s and returned and wrote the boo called Hunza. )e tal ed about their diet and their lifestyle# the way they li"ed# and the reasons for what he belie"ed contributed to their longe"ity. Going "o #$angri a.. 2ll of these wonderful things inspired me and ha"e been an inspiration to me for many years since. They moti"ated me with a desire to want to come and "isit this land and these people. I wanted to see for myself what he tal ed about3what he disco"ered3and to see the land that created the script for the mo"ie# The Lost Horizon and Shangrila, that was made many years ago. 2lso# the articles and stories written by National Geographic ha"e been awe,inspiring to all of us. It has been a phenomenal trip and we had a great time. %inding "$e Rig$" Lavender Producer 2nd now3just bac ing up a little bit to gi"e you a beginning of our trip3we were in %rance for four days and there we tra"eled to "isit the Lavender fields again and reestablish new producers for our Lavender for this coming year# 4555. It was really e$citing because it has always been a challenge to ac6uire the 6uality of Lavender oil I ha"e always desired and insisted upon. The small farmers who were growing for us in the past and the small field that we ha"e in

our research farm in %rance +where we ha"e produced oil- ha"e now reached the point where there has not been enough oil supply for Young Living and certainly will not be in order to eep up in the future. T$e Pure Lavender &ue'" The 6uest was to loo for new producers who could produce the 6uality we wanted. We tra"eled throughout the Drom (ro"ince and (ro"ence (ro"ince loo ing at different growers and tal ing with them until we found one that we were "ery# "ery satisfied with who was growing o"er 27. hectares of Lavender +which is about 7.. acres- altogether. )owe"er# in part of that he grows Lavendin# not the true Lavender. )e is growing about 27.,287 acres of Lavender# true 9a"endula 'fficinalis. The reason we were so e$cited with this farm was that it is run by a family3totally owned and operated by a family3 and has been in the family history for se"en generations. That is all they ha"e nown# all they ha"e done# and this man has ta en an e$tra step after ta ing o"er the farm from his father to maintain what his father was trying to do many years ago# and that was to establish strictly an organic code and follow organic practices. (er"i)ica"ion )or Organic Oi ' in Euro*e It is "ery e$citing because there ha"e been people who ha"e stated and ha"e written that there are no organic oil producers in &urope and there is no organic certification. This is absolutely false. There is an organi*ation called :&;T that is for the entire &uropean communities for all certification of organic oil and<or herbs. This particular gentleman who owns the farm is a member of that organi*ation and his Lavender is certified organic. That will be our supply for the years to come# and he will be supplying us with our Lavender oil in 4555 and throughout the following years. It will be "ery e$citing because the oil 6uality is at the le"el I ha"e always wanted# at the le"el I was trying to maintain# and at a le"el that no one could e"er challenge or e"er 6uestion. 'f course# others will challenge and they will continue to say their things and write their comments because of jealousies and because of trying to put us down. 2s the leaders in the &ssential 'il business# Young Living will always stand in front and will always be the leader. We will always set the e$ample and we will always be ma ing new disco"eries. I don=t care how many followers we

ha"e# letthem follow. >ut let them follow the standard also. +e A,are o) T$o'e !$o (ri"ici-e The ones who critici*e and slander will be the ones you can absolutely now are not following up to the standard. That is e$isting now# has e$isted# and will continue to e$ist# but that will be your first indication of those who do not want to come up to the standard. They will be the first to critici*e and slander. ?ary and I are so thrilled and happy to be able to gi"e to you the 6uality of oil that we now we ha"e and to be able to maintain it for the future because it will be another two years before we are producing any amount of Lavender oil from the farm in @tah. Lavender in Ida$o in #$or" #u** y o) De.and This past summer we had a fabulous har"est of Lavender in Idaho# but it was only enough to meet about one month=s supply of Lavender oil for Young Living. Ne$t year# with the growth# we will still3e"en though our Lavender field in Idaho will be three times bigger and will produce three times more oil3only supply about two wee =s or a month=s supply of oil for Young Living. Ao we are always going to need more and more as we con,tinue to grow because Lavender ta es three years to de"elop a crop. We are so far ahead of catching up that it=s going to ta e a lot of time to do thatB Inco.*arab e Oi '.. We are always going to need added suppliers growing for us# and we are so happy and e$cited about this new farm we found in %rance and that we will the only outside supplier +outside of %rance- he will be supplying oil to. Ao# again# there will be no one who can compare with us# and this ma es it e"en more special. We spent one day with this gentleman at his farm wal ing the fields and loo ing at the way he grooms the fields. )e does just li e we are doing. )e ta es the straw and chops it and puts it bac onto the field and wor s it into the ground. It eeps that compost in there# and he puts manure bac onto the field. )e is doing e"erything the right way and his Lavender plants are so healthy and his fields are happy and they are beautifulB )is farm sits up on a high plateau. )e has a small distillery3about C#... liter capacity3and he does all of the distilling himself# runs it at low temperature# *ero pressure# and does all the right

things that meet the specifications we re6uire for Young Living. Ao that was really e$citingB A /ar0e'"ing by /and Very E1*en'i0e This past summer in 455D we har"ested Th !e by hand in Idaho and @tah# and it ta es a lot of time. We had a crew of twel"e people har"esting at At. ?aries and it too four days to har"est three acres of Th !e. We har"ested our Lavender and it too four to fi"e days with a crew of twel"e to har"est the Lavender by hand. This becomes "ery# "ery e$pensi"e. >ecause of ha"ing to do it by hand we absorbed the added costs and didn=t raise the price of our Lavender, as we now that we can=t continue to do it that way. Loca"ing a /ar0e'"ing 2anu)ac"urer 2fter "isiting the farm in %rance# we spent another day with a manufacturer of a Lavender har"ester. In fact he is the only manufacturer in %rance who is building Lavender har"esters. Ao this trip was also to locate a Lavender har"ester# which we did# and this fabrication shop in %rance is building one specifically for us. It will be e$ported from %rance on the first of 2pril# arri"ing in @tah the first of /une# and we will use it to har"est the Th !e in @tah. Then we will ship it on up to At. ?aries to do the Th !e and Lavender har"est there during this coming year of 4555. It was "ery e$citing to ac6uire a mechanical har"ester. Now one operator will be able to har"est the entire field of Lavender in At. ?aries in less than one day and the same for the Th !e. It will cut our costs down substantially and enable us to eep our Lavender affordable. 'f course# ha"ing the 6uality of Lavender that we do ma es it so much more beneficial and more wonderful for our uses. A Drea. (o.e True3 2fter spending the time there and doing the business we needed to do in %rance# we tra"eled to &ngland# then from &ngland to 'man. We had an incredible e$perience in 'man with so much e$citement and anticipation of another dream I ha"e had for many years# and that was to tra"el to the origin of the "ran#incense trail# 2rabia=s "ran#incense trail that we tal about from the National Geographic article in 'ctober of 45D7. Vi'i"ing "$e Lo'" (i"y o) Ubar We had another reasonfor going there and that

was to hopefully "isit the 9ost :ity of @bar. ?any people ha"e not heard about this city. It was only disco"ered in 4554 and they started e$ca"ation in 4552. They are still e$ca"ating this ancient lost city in the desert. 9awrence of 2rabia called it the &tlantis o' the %esert. /i'"ory be$ind "$e Lo'" (i"y The 9ost :ity of @bar has a phenomenal history that goes bac to appro$imately C#... years >:. It was destroyed by an earth6ua e C7 or 07 2D. This city was perhaps the richest city of its time in the world and it was the trade center for "ran#incense and ( rrh. It has been said they would bring the "ran#incense on camel cara"ans from the costal regions of what is now Western 'man and &astern Yemen and there they would distill the "ran#incense and the ( rrh. Then it would go on to Greece# >ethlehem# /erusalem# and what we call Tel 2"i" for the shipping ports and possibly also bac to ports along the Aouthern 2rabian coast to ship out to India# :hina# and other countries. The 9ost :ity of @bar was a "ery# "ery wealthy trading city. Loo4ing )or "$e Lo'" (i"y It is in the center of 'man in the desert about 2.. ilometers inland from the coast. This city was written about in the Foran# and a lot of the ancient legends and fables that ha"e been told by the old timers spo e of the 9ost :ity of @bar and its e$citing legendary history. It stimulated people to start loo ing for this city. There were "arious people who loo ed for it in the 4D7.1s and had no success in locating it. They only located it in 4554 from satellite photography using thermography scans bounced off the satellite by wor that N2AA2 had participated in . They pic ed up the infrared colors of the camel cara"an route through the desert which has all be co"ered by blowing sand and dirt# and then they followed that map and came to an oasis in the desert and started to dig. Aure enough# they hit the footings and foundations and stones of that ancient city that had been destroyed by an earth6ua eB Unending !a"er #ource They found an incredible water ca"ern as they e$ca"ated which would ha"e been the original well that fed the city. There is a little "illage that has been built to the side of the 9ost :ity of @bar and now they are gearing up for tourist traffic to go and see the 9ost :ity and hear of its stories and legends.

I crawled down into the ca"ity because they ha"e pumps in the water crater that opened up with the earth6ua e. There they ha"e fi"e 27,horse pumps with EG lines on each pump pumping the water 2C hours a day out of the ca"ern into the fields where they are irrigating and into the little "illages. With those fi"e 27,horse pumps running 2C hours a day the water le"el doesn=t e"en drop an inchB It is an endless supply and the people there say that the desert is actually sitting on an underground la e. It is really ama*ing to see these things and to now that where"er we go there is water..just finding it is the problemB It had such an incredible water supply and it ta es water for distillation# so that may be the reason why they transported the ( rrh and "ran#incense to the 9ost :ity of @bar for distillation. Vi'i"ing "$e Frankincense Gro0e' We journeyed there and saw the 9ost :ity and the ruins and then we tra"eled west along the coastal area into the high mountains of 'man to where the "ran#incense gro"es are. It was really an incredible sight to see the "ran#incense tree..what a magnificent tree to grow right out of the roc sB It reminds me so much of the ?ahogany tree that grows in Idaho and @tah and ?ontana and perhaps other states. It has a temperament "ery much li e the ?ahogany and it has a loo similar to it# but instead of the leafs +or what we would call the leafs- ha"ing a needle,li e loo # they loo ed more li e a large ferntype leaf that was "ery interesting. The bar resembles White >irch bar and it peels just li e >irch bar . It was a beautiful tree in e"ery aspect. Frankincense Gu. "o be #$i**ed "o U"a$ We gathered some gum off the "ran#incense tree. The sap would just oo*e out when you cut the bar li e instant li6uid. It loo s li e mil # it is so white and clear. The minute you cut the bar it would come right to the surface# and then as soon as it hits the air it o$idi*es and starts to harden and turn into a hard gum. This was a uni6ue e$perience. To be able to meet with the people and arrange to buy the "ran#incense gum that e"entually will be imported into the @nited Atates and shipped to Aalt 9a e for distillation at the farm in @tah was a wonderful e$perience. We ha"e made these arrangements to wor with the people in not only e$porting the "ran#incense out of 'man to the @nited Atates# but also the ( rrh. It was a "ery rewarding time. #earc$ing )or "$e Ancien" Di'"i ery

It so happened that our dri"er we hired in Aalalah# 'man who too us out to see the "ran#incense trees and the mountains happened to be

from (a istan. When I as ed him if he had e"er heard of Ta$la# he said# H'h yes# I ha"e been to Ta$la.I I said# HThere is supposed to be an old museum there.I )e said# HYes# I ha"e been to the museum many times.I I told him I had read that there is an ancient distillery in the museum. )e said# HI=m not sure# but I thin so.I I told him we would really li e to go to (a istan# but we were ad"ised that it was "ery dangerous. )e said# HNo# no. It is not dangerous. Don=t worry about it..I can help you.I On our !ay ,i"$ Vi'a' In"ac"3 When we went to the (a istan &mbassy we found out it would ta e us four days to get a "isa and we had to be sponsored by someone in (a istan# and we had to get three passport photographs each. We went down and tal ed to the gentleman and we told him we were supposed to fly out the ne$t day. )e said# H'h# we fi$ it. We ta e care of you.I 2nd he did. )e hurried and rushed us through and within 2C hours we had our "isas to (a istan and the ne$t morning at 2J.. we were on the plane to Farachi# then to Islamabad. There we hired a car and dri"er and left for Ta$la. It was "ery interesting. They were e$tremely friendly# but when we got to 'man we recei"ed the shoc of our li"es because we found out the 2merican dollar was only worth .E8 cents. )owe"er# when we got to (a istan we made up for it because the 2merican dollar was worth 78 (a istan rupees and so that was 6uite a different changeB We hired a dri"er and a car for all day for 4#... rupees to dri"e us all o"er the country where"er we wanted to go and he would be our guide. 2t first we didn=t want to. We wanted to just rent a car. Inde*endence no" 'o De'irab e In (a istan it=s right,hand dri"e as it is in &ngland# but ?ary and I are so independent we just li e to rent a car and do our own thing. They insisted that it would be much better if their dri"er went with the car# rather than us ta ing the car by oursel"es. 2fter we got the car and got on the streets we found it was "ery much li e dri"ing in ?e$ico with the traffic..no real directions# just ind of a free,for,all on the streets. It

seemed that whoe"er was dri"ing the hardest had the right,of,way. We were really glad about then that we had hired the dri"er with the carB A (i"y ,i"$ Incredib e /i'"ory The dri"er too us straight to the museumK he new right where to go. Ta$la has# as they tell us# one of the most historical bac grounds of all of (a istan..a lot of ancient ruins and incredible history. They ha"e made a lot of archaeological digs and they ha"e found so many thousands and thousands of artifacts from statues and dolls and tools3farming tools and building tools3and jewelry and itchenware and pottery and jugs and "ases and coins..just thousands and thousands of them. The stuff is so well preser"ed and some of it goes bac to third and fourth century >:. We went into the museum. I was so an$ious to go see if this distillery really did e$ist. I ha"e illustrated it in my boo # but it was only illustrated from stories I had been told in my tra"els about this distillery. !$a" Di'"i er5 We went in the museum and as ed the guide there about the distiller# and he didn=t e"en now what we were tal ing about. )e ept trying to tell us about other things and sights to see in the museum and the history of the archaeological findings. I ept trying to e$plain the distiller to him and what I was loo ing for and he still didn=t now what I was tal ing about. %or a moment I felt a little bit of sadness in my heart that maybe all these stories I had been hearing were not true# and I thought# HI can=t stand here and listen to this man. )e doesn=t now what I am tal ing about#I so I let ?ary tal to him and I just wal ed around and started going through the museum. I turned and loo ed down the length of the museum to the south wall and I saw itB 2agni)icen" Di'"i er in 62in"7 (ondi"ion There it was behind a glass case and my heart just leaped in my throatB I was so e$cited about seeing this ancient distiller and I just too off down the museum to the end of the building to where it was in its glass case. What a sight to beholdB 2ll those years of reading other people=s stories that had been passed on and passed on really were "alidB In my early studies about 42 or 4E years ago people told me stories of this distiller that had been disco"ered# but no one had e"er seen it. There had ne"er been any photographs

of it# so I ept as ing# H)ow come there is ne"er a picture of it if it e$istsLI Nobody had an e$planation. P$o"ogra*$' Pro$ibi"ed.. It was "ery easy to e$plain why there has ne"er been

a photo ta en of it because it was strictly prohibited. 2bsolutely no photos could be ta en of this distiller. 2ll of the "ases and jugs and containers were associated with in and were all in one huge glass case in the museum. 2fter they had distilled the oils# they had special terra,cotta clay jugs they would put the oil in. The distiller itself was all made of terra,cotta clay. It was in absolute Mmint= conditionB It was unearthed during the e$ca"ation and not e"en chipped or crac ed or anything. It was li e it had just been molded. It was so unbelie"able to see this. The e$citement it created in me has just been o"erwhelmingB Trying "o #i-e-u* "$e Di'"i er I was standing there# just loo ing in awe at this distiller and trying to put my hands on the glass# using my hands for measurement to get an idea of about the si*e of it so I could write about it and tal about it because now I ha"e seen it. T$e On y P$o"ogra*$' in E1i'"ence3 ?ary started telling the gentleman that we grew herbs and we distilled them for oil and that I was doing research and I had written a boo and had illustrated this distiller in my boo from stories I had heard. )e was so gracious and so ind that he said# H' ay# when all the people who are here lea"e the museum I will allow you to ta e a picture of the distiller.I Ao we may ha"e in our possession the only photographs that e$ist of this distiller. Not only did we get it on photograph# we got it on "ideo as well to bring home# so I can publish this in my boo . /i'"ory o) Aro.a"ic P an"' and Di'"i a"ion It was really a thrill to spend se"eral hours there learning more about the history of these people and the area and "alley that Ta$la lies in. It was an area that was just full of aromatic plants and there is a tremendous history of the distillation of these aromatic plants bac to three centuries >: up until the early 45..1s. During World War 2 the distillation pretty well stopped and the fields grew to brush and debris# and they 6uit farming for aromatic use. It=s "ery sad to see this as it was a "ery rich# "ery producti"e area in its time and had been said by the people to be one of

the largest oil,producing areas in the world for 6uite some time. Egy*" - "$e %orerunner o) Di'"i a"ion It was interesting to learn some of the history. The Gree s were the ones who brought the nowledge of distillation to (a istan and# of course# it was the &gyptians who too the distillation nowledge to the Gree s. I ha"e been slowly able to follow the trail of the e"olution of distillation from &gypt to other countries# and that has been "ery e$citing as well. Pa4i'"an Peo* e..2a'"er' ,i"$ #"one 2fter spending the day there we went to "isit some of the ancient city ruins that ha"e been e$ca"ated which were wonderful to see. We hi ed way on top of one of the mountains abo"e Ta$la to an old monastery that was still in 6uite good condition# but they had done some reno"ation in trying to restore it. It was a wonderful e$perience to "isit this old monastery and the literally hundreds of statutes of >uddha and the Mstucco car"ings#= as they call them. The craftsmanship of the (a istan people with stone was ama*ing. It was just beautiful. A Drea. (o.e True../un-a and3 The ne$t day we made the journey that I ha"e waited 2. years to ma e# and that was going into )un*aland. We flew from Islamabad in a propeller plane into the high mountains of the )imalayas and from there we went by car on a rough road. It too us nearly three hours to go up into the )un*a "alley. When we got into the "alley we had to go by jeep into the mountains to get into the high "illages. This was an e$citing time for me and "ery e$citing for ?aryB Aometimes she was s6uee*ing my leg so hard I thought she was going to lea"e puncture holesB The jeep would come to a switch,bac on a mountain that was steeper than an old cow=s face eating grass# and the jeep would come right to the edge. You couldn=t see anything but 7#...,0#... feet straight downB The dri"er would ha"e to put the jeep in gear and bac up to try to get around the switch,bac s to go up another climb. )e held it in C,wheel low in first gear and it was so steep he could barely ma e the climb and up o"er roc s. Unbe ie0ab e 2oun"ain Terrain I tried to "ideo record as we were going with the jeep# so when we show the "ideo you will get a feel for the steepness and the sharpness and the roughness of the goat trail. It was literally a don ey trail up the

steep mountain up on top of the plateau where the "illage and the people were. The whole thing was breathta ing. I can=t remember how to say the names of some of the mountains# but those that surround the "alley are anywhere from 2C#... to 20#... feet and higher.

It is "ery hot34.7 to 4.0 degrees3throughout /une# /uly# 2ugust# and into Aeptember. When it gets cold it can get down to 4. or 47 below. They said this has been infre6uent# but they ha"e recorded as cold as C. below +which is "ery rare-# but their normal temperatures in wintertime are 4. or 47 below. Their winters are "ery short.

Their gardens are wonderful. They dry all of their "egetables on the roofs of their houses and also their fruits# and that is what they li"e on. Li0ing Li)e a" %u e'"..a" 99:3 We had a wonderful day just going from house to house "isiting with the older people in the "illages. We "isited with a lady who was 44. and her mind was so sharp and so clear and her speech was so clear.

Ahe could remember way bac into the early 45..1s and told us the story of when her husband was in the ser"ice of the ?er +who was the Fing of the )un*a "alley-. )er husband wor ed in his pri"ate army and he was illed in 45ED. Ahe ne"er remarried because she coo ed for the ?er and he didn=t want her to remarry. )e wanted her to be able to tra"el with him. Ahe continued tal ing about how healthy she was and how good she felt# and how she wants to see the young people in her "illage be educated. >ut she wants to see them maintain their culture and their ancient customs and traditions. A i0e and T$ri0ing a)"er 9:;3 2nother gentleman we "isited with was 4.0 and his wife was 57. When we arri"ed at their house she was outside cutting wood and ma ing a fire outside and preparing the dinner meal. This man loo s li e he might be 87 at the "ery oldest. 2t age 4.0 his health is e$cellentB )e sat down on the floor and crossed his legs in Indian style without any problem..no stiffness in his joints. I found this "ery interesting because we sat and tal ed for a couple of hours and when he stood up he wasn=t stiff from sitting in that position on a hard cement floor# and it was just a little one,inch pad. )is hands and fingers weren=t swollen with arthritis and when we tal ed to them about their diet it was so e$citing. I.*or"ance o) Die" Recon)ir.ed It just reconfirmed to ?ary and me how important our diet is and how we# too# can ha"e longe"ity if we do the right things and li"e a lifestyle that is conduci"e to it.

They ha"e started building hotels there because the road they built +which too them o"er 22 years to build- now connects all the way to Tibet :hina. It follows the old sil road that was used thousands of years ago by the sil traders who tra"eled bac and forth. The sheer mountains they car"ed the road out of is just unreal.

There was no indication that this man was a day past 0. years of age. In fact# most 2mericans at age 0. do not ha"e the brightness this man had. It was thrilling to meet with his grand,son and his great grandsons..and they all li"e in the same home. They tal ed of the importance of the family unit. It just touched our hearts so much because this is so true. %a.i ie' %ir'".. Ao much of what we want to e$press and bring out in Young Living is the family and the importance of the family. We want to emphasi*e the importance of respecting our bodies as a temple of God and feeding our bodies the proper food. !$a" Do You Ea" and Drin45 We as ed these people# HWhat do you eat for brea fast# what do you eat for lunch# what do you eat for dinnerL What do you drin LI When we as ed them what they dran # it wasn=t (epsi# it wasn=t 8,@p# it wasn=t sugared water. They dran the mineral water off from the mountain# the glacier water. They dran their grape juice# they dran their apricot nectar. They dran an herbal tea e"ery day which they said strengthened their heart and ga"e them power# cleared their head# remo"ed fe"er# and healed the stomach. They shared all of these wonderful things. Their diet was so incredible. Not one of these people e"er mentioned a hamburger# a hot dog# Twin ies# burritos# %rench

fries# or corn fla es. They did not consume any of the modern food that has been shipped into )un*aland. Die"ary ($ange' broug$" Di'ea'e They did confirm with me that when the road was completed 47 years ago in 45DE and 2merican food and &nglish food started coming into their country# three years later in 45D0 the first case of cancer was diagnosed. Now they ha"e cancerK now they ha"e arthritisK now they ha"e diabetes. I as ed the elderly people# HWhyL What is the reason that these diseases ha"e come to )un*alandLI They said# HIt came with the food. Now our people do not eat the same way. 'ur young people do not eat the old way. They eat the modern food# and now we ha"e the diseases.I O d Ri"ua ' Done A,ay.. >efore the road was built into )un*aland# when people would come to "isit on the don ey and mule cara"ans or on foot into their country# there was a large spring at the entrance of the "alley where people would ha"e to stop and bathe in the glacier water. It wasn=t heated. It was free*ing glacier water# and they would ha"e to bathe in it and then put on clothing of the "alley. They could not wear their own clothing into the "alley. They did this to pre"ent any disease from coming into the "alley and they did this up until 45D0. A Once-Pure Peo* e.. Ao we see a pure people change where their "alley has been introduced to modern technology and modern science. They ha"e gone from li"ing to be 4E.,40. years of age to only 44.,447 years. 2s I tal ed with these people# they said# H'h# yes. 'ur ancestors did li"e up to 487 years of age# but not today.I In comparison to 2merican standards that is still a long time# but their longe"ity has decreased by at least E. years since the modern things ha"e come into the "alley. 'f course# the tractors and the automobiles brought pollution. It was sad when ?ary and I wal ed the little "illage wal ways at night and we could smell the diesel e$haust from the cars and the diesel generators that produce electricity. &"en though they ha"e electricity in the "alley# they don=t ha"e enough for the accommo,dations. The population of the land is 27#... people and it is o"er,populated for the amount of electricity they are able to generate there# so they still ha"e some diesel generators that came in when they built the road.

They didn=t bring the power when they brought the road. They ha"e only had electricity for four years. >i)er? Yogur"? A*rico"' .. Die"ary #"a* e' 2ll in all# it was an incredible e$perience and we learned a great deal about the importance of diet. I was also pleased to learn that these people eat yogurt and Fifer. They called it buttermil or whey. The Fifer I ha"e tal ed about and the )e*+err drin I ha"e formulated is truly their mainstay. The 4.0 year,old gentleman we tal ed to was in the first e$pedition to climb the high 20#...1 mountain pea in 450.. The name of that pea is

spelled N,2,N,G,2 and it is a magnificent mountain. It=s common name is the MNa ed ?ountain.= It is the second highest moun,tain in the world and it is right there in the )un*a "alley. This gentleman was in the first e$pedition to climb all the way to the top of it. )e was the guide for some of the >ritish and they introduced him to cigarettes and he started smo ing in 450.. )e=s 4.0 and he=s still smo ing today. That was ind of sad to see# as he was coughing when he would smo e. )e said when he goes on the e$peditions3and he has climbed Nanga mountain si$ times3he would only ta e with him the Fifer and apricots. That is what ga"e him the strength to climb the mountain in the weather conditions. The apricots contain >,48 and is so rich in "itamins and minerals that it is their number one food in )un*aland. They attribute their longe"ity to the apricot and the Fifer and the glacier water. These are all wonderful things which support the teachings of Young Living and the things we are trying to produce3products li e )e*+err and ,o-er(eal and .ltraYoung/to gi"e the added nutrients to our bodies and sustain our li"es and gi"e us longe"ity. #"reng"$ in %a.i ie' )or Young and O d 2nother gentleman we met was 58 years old and he was out in the field irrigating# sho"el in his hand# changing the water in the field. It was such an incredible e$perience because these people don=t now what it is to retire. They don=t now what it is not to wor . They go in the fields and wor right along with their grandsons# their great grandsons# their great great grandsons# their granddaughters. They all wor as a family tending the fields together and there is such incredible power and strength in

this. #"ri0e )or I.*ro0ed Li)e'"y e It has truly been a blessing for ?ary and I to ha"e these e$periences to bring home to you# to strengthen you in that which we ha"e in Young Living.

That is the only way we are going to change the outcome of the way things are and not be a "ictim of disease. #ugar and #a " - "$e (u *ri"' We saw and learned much from these people. They didn=t e"en ha"e a hospital in )un*aland until 47 years ago. They didn=t ha"e doctorsK they didn=t ha"e dentists and all the things we tal about. Their problems didn=t happen until sugar came into their land# until salt came into their land. 2s we tal ed with the people they said that salt was the biggest culprit. >efore 45D0 they didn=t use salt# they didn=t eat sugar. They ate their food fresh and dried. When the >ritish came in and introduced the sugar and salt# that is when diseases started to de"elop in the stomach. Ao again# we learned so many things. Megazyme I.*or"an" )or Dige'"i0e Trac" This is another reason why I tal about (egaz !e. We ha"e destroyed the en*ymes in our digesti"e tract because of the way we eat the fast foods and the garbage foods in 2merica. (egaz !e is so important to help reestablish that because# as these people told us# if the stomach isn=t well# the body isn=t well and the mind isn=t well. It is so important to ha"e the digesti"e system wor ing properly. Then it doesn=t create the to$ins that go to the brain and cloud the brain and cause depression. 2any Le''on' "o Learn %ol s# we ha"e so many wonderful things in Young Living..lessons that we ha"e to learn and that I ha"e to share with you.

Va ue in %a'"ing :lean your bodies. These people would eat meat and then for fast three days to clean the to$ins out of their bodies created from the meat. I ha"e tal ed about that. It was so interesting to tal to them and learn that after they ate meat they would fast for three days# sometimes longer. 2nother thing we ha"e learned is that fasting increases the secretion of human growth hormone +)G)- which supports the body and increases longe"ity. The Wolfberry that is in ,o-er(eal and Sul'urz !e and the $ol'0err +ar is so life,gi"ing# and now we see the "alue of the ?ongolian people who ha"e longe"ity and what the Wolfberry has done for them. !onder)u O**or"uni"y "o Learn We learned so much from the )un*a people.
