animal products

[Guest guest]

Hi Gang,

I will try to answer some of these questions without offending anyone. My post

is in bold, larger lettters. 's is in the smaller print.

Hi Rosemary,

I do struggle, however, with using the Bible as a guideline

for eating vegetarian. In my years in the Nutrition field, and

being a Christian, I have heard that done by others as well.

The reason I struggle with it, is that after the

flood, God says eating meat is okay...Gen. 9:3 " Everything

that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you

the green plants, I now give you everything. "

The original diet for mankind was laid down in Genesis 1;29. Then, because

there was so much sin in the world, God decided to wipe mankind out with the

flood. Because of Noah, God changed His mind and decided to shorten mankind's

lifespan. That is when He said we could eat meat and other animal products.

God has allowed many things,(like divorce for example) but it does not mean they

are good for us, and there is usually a price to pay.

God also

gave guidelines later about meats that were better not

eaten, and many of those we now know are more parasitic,

etc., so God may have given these guidelines with the health

of the people in mind. I have always wondered about that

and wonder how the " hallalujah acres " folks respond to that.

Malkmus has written a little book called " A Health Primer. " (I think

that's the name of it.) He answers lots of these questions from a Biblical

perspective. From memory it is only a few dollars. I haven't bought one as I

am in Australia and his books are hard to get here. One that I do have is

called " Why Christians Get Sick. " In this book he talks about all the chemicals

in our foods, air and water and how far we have come from God's original plan

for us. Excellent stuff.

I do believe that we should eat " everything in moderation "

and things that are unprocessed, though I fail at times in

both of these areas. I really think that

so much of our problem is excess, over-processing

of foods, the pollution we have brought upon the earth,

and the lack of nutrients present even in the foods we

do eat because we are depleting our soils.

Just some thoughts that keep coming to mind...

...I do enjoy your posts :-)

Thanks . For years I ate what I thought was healthy food in

moderation. I ate skinless chicken, fish and low fat red meat. I ate low fat

organic yoghurt, wholegrains, fruit and vegies, etc. Most things were home-

cooked and I thought I was doing the best for my family, according to the

knowledge I had at the time. I had previously been on the Atkins diet, low-carb

diets, Weight-Watchers, etc, etc. Though all of these diets had some merrit,

nothing helped me like the Hallelujah diet.

This diet has got me out of a wheelchair when nothing else could. I have been

sick with chronic Lyme disease for 24 years. I was misdiagnosed for 22 years

and not given anti-biotics, so you can imagine I have quite a bit of

neurological and muscle damage. The diet has definately stopped the

deterioration, but not cured me at this late stage. The diet has certainly

cured every other problem my husband and I had which was caused by eating animal

products.

I would encourage anyone to just try it for at least 21 days and then see how

you feel. You have nothing to lose and might be surprised by the results you

get.

Wishing you all health,

Rosemary.
