My Full Health Update From The Mayo Clinic | Coffee With Kenny · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:00
  Happy Friday morning, everybody. I'm back in Arnold, MO, home of
• 0:07
  the big one. OK, so you all deserve to know
• 0:15
  about my health. It's your business.
• 0:23
  I think I'm going to go the opposite way.
• 0:24
  Instead of keeping my health private and not wanting people
• 0:29
  to know anything about me, I think I'm going to tell you the
• 0:32
  update on my health because I think it can help people.
• 0:37
  So, well, let me see. It's it's little, little, what
• 0:42
  is it, 7:00, 7-10, something like that.
• 0:46
  The seats, there's due. There's due on the seats.
• 0:51
  So I can't, I'm going to find a place to sit.
• 0:54
  Maybe not. All right, So I went to the Mayo
• 1:00
  Clinic because I wanted to get a full physical.
• 1:04
  And in the meanwhile, I felt like I had food kind of getting
• 1:09
  stuck, having a hard time with food going down my esophagus.
• 1:14
  In the meanwhile, I had everybody calling me.
• 1:19
  And of course, you know, everybody, you know, gets
• 1:22
  roughed up physically and they want to share their story with
• 1:26
  me. Hey, Herman, it's this.
• 1:29
  Hey, Herman, here's what's wrong with you.
• 1:31
  And I want to tell you all that I appreciate you all being so
• 1:34
  nice to me and letting me know, you know, what you think was
• 1:39
  wrong with me. You all were very nice because
• 1:42
  you all were saying here's what's wrong with you.
• 1:45
  And there was 500 different reasons, you know, that you were
• 1:50
  telling me there was something wrong with me.
• 1:52
  I remember John Dotson said it's this coffee, John Dodson said
• 1:58
  it's that 2 cups of coffee you you drink every day.
• 2:02
  So the doctor said, the GI doctor at the Mayo Clinic, he
• 2:11
  said it's a 50 year old myth that coffee is bad for you.
• 2:19
  He said it actually works as a laxative.
• 2:22
  Now I know that. We all know that, but I'm just
• 2:25
  saying you the best. The best GI doctor in the world
• 2:31
  said that coffee being bad for you is a myth.
• 2:35
  But hold on, he said. Everybody's different,
• 2:39
  Everybody's different. But how much coffee I drink is
• 2:45
  highly exaggerated. I drink 2 cups of coffee in the
• 2:49
  morning, OK? And I show you my coffee every
• 2:52
  morning. I've done a video on what kind
• 2:54
  of coffee I drink. I drink 2 cups of coffee in the
• 2:58
  mornings and that's it. I don't drink coffee at noon,
• 3:02
  you know, I don't, I don't drink coffee all day long.
• 3:05
  I drink 2 cups of coffee in the morning and that's that.
• 3:08
  So the doctor said he's, he literally said that 50 year old
• 3:14
  myth is false. So that was from the GI doctor
• 3:20
  at the world's greatest hospital.
• 3:23
  He said, Kenny, he said we have stuck a camera down your throat.
• 3:30
  We have stuck a camera up your ass.
• 3:35
  You've had an endoscopy, you've had a colonoscopy.
• 3:39
  And he said you don't have anything wrong with you.
• 3:43
  Uh, you know, the colonoscopy there was 1 little polyp, they
• 3:50
  checked it, it was just nothing. It was benign.
• 3:55
  Now that's my business and I told you, OK, they stuck the
• 4:01
  camera down my throat and like I told you yesterday, he says you
• 4:04
  got to think about it. The camera went down your
• 4:05
  throat. Says looks good as far as
• 4:13
  something getting stuck down your throat there.
• 4:21
  He said, let's, let's try this, OK?
• 4:24
  He says. When you wake up every morning,
• 4:28
  you know, let, let's fix, let's fix this, this pooping and this
• 4:34
  sensation where, you know, you think you feel like you got
• 4:37
  something stuck. Here's the final synopsis.
• 4:39
  He says. Here's what we're going to do.
• 4:42
  He says #1 He says that is a myth about Miralax.
• 4:47
  It does not take anything, does not strip anything away from
• 4:52
  your colon. That is a myth.
• 4:54
  Miralax is awesome. He says actually what Miralax
• 4:58
  does is it adds liquid to your colon, actually makes your colon
• 5:04
  wet, doesn't strip it from bacterial.
• 5:10
  All this is a myth. They've been taking Miralax for
• 5:14
  over 20 years and the reason it says only taking seven days is
• 5:18
  because they don't want you to treat yourself and then you have
• 5:20
  something else wrong with you. So in other words, they don't
• 5:23
  want you going to the grocery store, buying Miralax, taking it
• 5:27
  and there's something being wrong with you.
• 5:29
  What they're saying is if you take Miralax, you know, after 7
• 5:35
  days and it's you still can't poop, maybe there's something
• 5:38
  else wrong with you. He says, think about it this
• 5:41
  way. He says they give you Miralax
• 5:44
  and a tub way more than seven days worth, right?
• 5:48
  And he says somebody like, you know, those businesses, he says,
• 5:54
  he said, although over in Europe, they, they offer, they
• 5:59
  only want, they don't want you to take a capful because they
• 6:01
  eat better. They're way healthier in other
• 6:04
  parts of the country like Europe, over here we're the most
• 6:07
  unhealthiest people. We eat so much processed food
• 6:11
  that people over here are fat and bloated, and so they're
• 6:14
  always wanting to take drugs to make them feel better.
• 6:17
  He says. You take that Miralax every damn
• 6:19
  morning for the rest of your life.
• 6:22
  You know, nobody, nobody made fun of the old people when they
• 6:24
  take Metamucil, did they? You remember old mom and dad
• 6:28
  used to take Metamucil and we're like, oh, they're taking
• 6:30
  Metamucil. Nobody said, oh, don't take
• 6:33
  Metamucil. So Miralax is good.
• 6:38
  It makes your colon wet. It it, it makes the poop go
• 6:42
  down. It's the same thing they use
• 6:44
  when you get a colonoscopy. So we're going to wake up every
• 6:48
  morning, we're going to drink our two cups of coffee.
• 6:50
  We're going to do the Miralax. And we're also going to take one
• 6:54
  of those aligns, He says. I don't believe in probiotics,
• 7:00
  but Procter and Gamble makes a good, a good, you know, you
• 7:05
  know, if you if you want to take a probiotic, you know, like a
• 7:08
  line that that's the one that I would do.
• 7:10
  He said it's made by Procter and Gamble.
• 7:13
  They usually don't have any oversight on on probiotics.
• 7:16
  And I, you know, probiotics kind of on an island by themselves.
• 7:19
  You know, there's no rules and regulations over probiotics.
• 7:23
  But here's the big change. I want you to go back crazy on
• 7:29
  fiber and vegetables. He says, let's start eating
• 7:34
  fruits in the morning, Let's go, You know, bananas, apples,
• 7:38
  pears, just, you know, fruits. You know, there.
• 7:43
  There's an old saying that Mediterranean diet.
• 7:45
  He goes, I don't like that name, Mediterranean.
• 7:48
  Now, my GA, my GI doctor didn't say that, but my doctor said
• 7:52
  that we're going to get to my arteries here in a minute.
• 7:54
  But Mediterranean diet, anything that comes out of the ground.
• 7:59
  Anything that comes out of the ground.
• 8:00
  OK, I was going to say cows were not meant to be killed and we
• 8:08
  ate that. Anything God, the Mediterranean
• 8:11
  diet is anything God made that came out of the ground.
• 8:14
  So what we're going to change and all my Dave's bread.
• 8:19
  He'd like to see more fiber. So he found me a new bread.
• 8:23
  So in the morning, my new routine, 2 cups of coffee, a
• 8:28
  line Miralax. Let's get some more fiber into
• 8:32
  bread. Let's eat some, you know,
• 8:34
  bananas, apples, pears, you know, maybe cut it up on myself,
• 8:38
  I'll cut it up myself and we're going to give it a go and keep
• 8:42
  my keep my coal and keep keep my poop going.
• 8:45
  And we felt like maybe the reason the things were getting
• 8:49
  the reason here it is. We feel like the reason my I was
• 8:54
  hurting right here is I'm full of so we feel like that.
• 8:59
  That's it. Just the poop backing up now.
• 9:03
  I went up there to have my arteries checked out because my
• 9:05
  whole family has died of clogged up arteries.
• 9:09
  My dad had a heart attack. Remember, my uncle Gary got
• 9:11
  airlifted out of a park National Park years ago.
• 9:14
  My brother Mike had his chest cut open.
• 9:17
  As far as that goes. We did an EKG, we did a stress
• 9:23
  test and we did a plaque build up test.
• 9:27
  We did not do an intrusive cardio Cath.
• 9:30
  We did not do a cardiac Cath. We did not, we did not put dye
• 9:35
  through my arteries. They got better ways.
• 9:38
  You know, Now if you've had heart attacks and you're already
• 9:40
  screwed up, then then that's OK. But let's check Kenny out.
• 9:45
  They checked me out three different ways.
• 9:47
  Just a simple everyday EKG and then the stress test, which I
• 9:53
  just ran and I was average. I was disappointed.
• 9:55
  I was only average when they did, when they put me in the
• 9:59
  tube and they did the, you know, the, the test where they, you
• 10:04
  know, do imaging my left main very minimal plaque build up.
• 10:12
  But he said, I'm very happy that you're already taking 20
• 10:15
  milligram pravastatin. And what I liked what he said,
• 10:20
  he said, I'm going to let you know in July, if we're going to
• 10:23
  up that pravastatin to 40 milligram, He says we have the
• 10:27
  ability to get rid of that little bitty plaque buildup in
• 10:30
  that left Maine. He said what I want you to do.
• 10:33
  He said, what do you do for physical activity?
• 10:36
  I said, man, I dig hard. I said I, I said I'm, I'm very
• 10:40
  active. He looked at me.
• 10:41
  He goes, I hear that all the time.
• 10:43
  People trying to convince themselves that they're OK
• 10:45
  because they're active now. I used to make fun of people
• 10:49
  that run all the time. I'm like, man, where they
• 10:51
  running from? You know, lot of us are lazy.
• 10:55
  He said. I want you to walk 20 minutes
• 10:59
  every day that you can. He said something that's
• 11:02
  continuous. So what I'll do is I'll start
• 11:05
  walking 20 minutes every day, but it's got to be continuous,
• 11:09
  He said. You walk 20 minutes every day.
• 11:12
  Let me get back to you. Let me get back to you about
• 11:17
  about that, that pill. He said I'm going to get a
• 11:20
  little more advice from our 5000 doctors. 5000 doctors are going
• 11:26
  to they're he's going to reach out to somebody that he thinks
• 11:28
  pretty smart too. He says he wants to make sure
• 11:32
  that if he UPS my do we keep you on the 20 milligram pravastatin
• 11:37
  or do we up it? And if we up it, does it make my
• 11:41
  joints hurt? In other words, right now
• 11:43
  they're 20 milligram pravastatin.
• 11:46
  I don't even know I'm taking it. He says.
• 11:48
  I'm glad you're taking it. He says, but let's work a little
• 11:51
  bit harder. And he says, remember this,
• 11:54
  everybody which already knew this and we all know this
• 11:59
  liquor, beer is a neural killer. He said, I'm so happy you don't
• 12:03
  drink anymore. He said.
• 12:05
  It's simply drinking. Well, just kills your brain.
• 12:09
  Neural. Neural means brain drinking,
• 12:13
  just drinking, drinking, drinking is super bad for you.
• 12:17
  And I said man, I said I and then and then you go back to my
• 12:21
  GI doctor and he says, listen, everybody's different.
• 12:25
  Somebody can drink beer their whole life, don't bother them at
• 12:27
  all. He says, but you, it's not good
• 12:30
  for you. My hearing there there is here
• 12:33
  hearing loss. But they said you don't, you
• 12:36
  don't you don't need hearing aids yet.
• 12:38
  It's just Kenny myself, I don't hear soft spoken people that are
• 12:45
  talking when when somebody goes like this, hey Kenny, what you
• 12:49
  doing? And they're a football field
• 12:52
  away. I don't have supersonic hearing.
• 12:54
  OK, It's kind of like you, you probably don't have 2020 vision
• 12:58
  either more do you? You know, you might not have
• 13:00
  2020 vision. Well, none of us when we get to
• 13:03
  be this age, we don't have 2020 vision.
• 13:05
  Of course I can see pretty good. But as far as hearing, I hear
• 13:13
  good. I just don't hear great.
• 13:16
  And they did like 3 tests on my hearing.
• 13:18
  I mean they went all out on my hearing.
• 13:20
  I don't know why, but they just offered it and I said let's do
• 13:23
  it. My teeth, my daughter, I got
• 13:27
  great dental hygienist. They did a full physical on me,
• 13:30
  you know, besides my arteries, besides my, my GI tract.
• 13:36
  They did that full physical, stuck their finger up my ass,
• 13:39
  squeezed my balls, you know, did that whole deal.
• 13:44
  Now remember, I gave you my physical update because you
• 13:48
  won't. And we all know my business is
• 13:52
  your business. You deserve to know about my
• 13:54
  health. That HIPAA law is real.
• 14:00
  A lot of people, a lot of people don't want you to know about
• 14:03
  them and I understand that. But me, I'm letting you know
• 14:07
  because I said I'm going there. And if I don't respond, it'll be
• 14:11
  another Jughead deal. What's wrong with Jughead?
• 14:13
  You didn't. We gave Jughead money.
• 14:14
  Why didn't you update us about Jughead?
• 14:16
  I'm like, there's HIPAA laws. Everybody let Jughead tell you
• 14:19
  what's wrong with him. But I told you time after time,
• 14:22
  Jughead's cured. He's in great shape.
• 14:26
  I told you all my business. Now you respond right here and
• 14:29
  tell me how up the world's greatest doctors are.
• 14:34
  I had to get you one time because I know you know
• 14:36
  everything. Oh, damn.
• 14:39
  All right. Herman's coming back.
• 14:41
  Hermanator got a little soft two days while he was up at the
• 14:43
  hospital. I I like, I like salty Herman.
• 14:47
  You know everything. Tell me everything.
• 14:51
  Have a great Friday.
