## Transcript

The president's overall health is excellent. His cardiac performance during his physical exam was very good. He continues to enjoy the significant long- term cardiac and overall health benefits that come from a lifetime of abstinence from tobacco and alcohol. We discussed diet, exercise, and weight loss. He would benefit from a diet that is lower in fat and carbohydrates and from a routine excercise regimen. It for any type of cognitive issues, Alzheimer's and all those other things and so the fact that the president got 30 out of 30 on that exam I think there's no indication whatsoever that he has any cognitive issues.

There was an incident recently where the president apepared to Slur his words while giving an address. Did you look into what the cause of that might have been at all? I did. We talked about that. And actually, one of my EMT consultants was involved in that. We evaluated him. We checked everything out. And everything was normal. We even went so far as to do an ultra sound of his proatile glands and a few other things. And there was absolutely no clinical findings that would suggest I think the reason for that was quite honestly, me being up here right now I think I need a drink of water. I think that I had given the President some medication.

Specifically some Sudafed on the days previous. I think that I had inadvertently kind of dried up his secretions a little bit more than I. I intended to and I think that to our Deputy Secretary. What is this daily exercise for [ UNKNOWN ] So I would say [ UNKNOWN ] on a day- to- day basis he doesn't have a dedicated, defined exercise program and that That's what I'm working on, the good part is that we can build on that pretty easily. One of the things is, I'm getting nutrition specialist to come up here and meet with the chefs that we have here and their gonna go over the preparation of the president's food.

Just to make sure that we're cutting the calories and the fats and the carbohydrates as much as we possibly can, we're still making a good meals for him With regards to the exercise, that's something that myself, and potentially Mrs. Trump will work with him upstairs. There's a gentlemen upstairs, and we'll get that set up to his specifications, and we'll see how that goes.
