The Hallelujah Diet
by Rev. George Malkmus of Hallelujah Acres
People often ask me, "What do you
eat?" Here is my answer:
BREAKFAST: One
tablespoon of Barley Max* powder either dry (and
letting it dissolve under my tongue) or in a couple
of ounces of distilled water at room temperature.
That is usually all I have until noon! If I do get
hungry, then I may eat a piece of fresh juicy fruit
later in the morning. Cooked food is an absolute
no-no as my body is in a cleansing mode until about
noon each day.
LUNCH: One
tablespoon of BarleyMax powder, as at breakfast.
Sometimes I stir my BarleyMax into 8 ounces of
freshly extracted carrot juice**, which I find
especially delicious and extremely nutritious. At
least a half hour after Barley Max, I prefer an
all-raw fruit lunch: a banana, apple, dates, etc.
Organic is always best when available. (Sometimes I
have a vegetable salad for lunch instead of the
fruit). It is important that this be an all-raw meal!
SUPPER: One
tablespoon of Barley Max* powder either dry or in a
couple of ounces of distilled water or in carrot
juice. Carrot juice must be freshly extracted, never
canned, bottled or frozen. Then, at least 30 minutes
after the Barley Max, I eat a large green vegetable
salad of leaf lettuce (never head lettuce), broccoli,
cauliflower, celery, carrots, etc. This is usually
followed by some cooked food (baked potato, baked
sweet potato, brown rice, steamed vegetables,
whole-grain pasta, whole-grain bread, etc.) Later in
the evening I often have a glass or two of organic
apple juice or a piece of juicy fruit. (My diet
consists of approximately 85 percent raw food, and 15
percent cooked food.)
To be sure I get the essential
fatty acids needed by my body, I also have one
tablespoon of Organic Flax Oil. I either have this on
my evening salad or straight out of the bottle.
Exercise is also an essential
part of my program. I so at least one hour of
vigorous exercise daily. Additionally, I try to get
some sunshine on as much of my body as possible every
day.
*The reason I
supplement my diet with BarleyMax is that our food
supply is being grown for the most part in very
deficient soils that often lack all the butrients my
body needs for building new, strong, healthy, vital,
vibrant cells. BarleyMax is grown organically and
contains the widest spectrum of nutrients available
today from a single source that I am aware of. It is
also loaded with enzymes. I consider it the single,
most important food I put into my body each day and
always consume at least 3 tablespoons of it
a day.
**The Second-most important food I put
into my body each day is freshly extracted carrot
juice made from large California juicing carrots. I
try to drink at least 16 to 24 ounces each day. When
I had my colon cancer twenty years ago, I consumed 32
to 64 ounces of carrot juice each day. If I had a
serious physical problem today, I would consume up to
eight 8-ounce glasses of carrot juice each day in
addition to my three to four tablespoons of
BarleyMax. The reason BarleyMax and carrot juice are
so important to me is:
1.
Cooked food has practically no nutritional value
2. A large percentage of the nutrients in raw food
are lost in the digestive process, with only 1 to 35%
of nutrients reaching cell level, depending on the
health of the digestive system
3. When vegetable juices or BarleyMax are consumed,
up to 92% of the nutrients reach cell level. this is
because the pulp has been removed and thus no
disgestion is necessary. Raw vegetable juices are the
fastest way to nourish the cells and rebuild the
body.
