A Word from the LORD: "Let your moderation be known unto all men. The LORD is at hand." Philippians 4:5 KJV ............................................................................. Relating to Family and Loved Ones Those of us who have family and loved ones who have rejected the original diet from the Bible have a struggle with how to relate to them. It is so frustrating to know the solution to suffering and misery and yet be rejected in favor of the traditional method of treatment of symptoms with drugs, surgery and radiation. The medical community, partly to save them from lawsuits and partly to know the condition of the patient, prescribe dangerous and expensive, invasive tests which further weaken the patient. All too often, they even suggest terrible foods which we know contribute to the continued demise of the patient. We fight an awesome foe which is armed with money, power, and sometimes even false theology. Here are some things that we must keep in mind: 1. The healing that we have experienced first-hand from God's original diet has given us confidence and faith that our most precious family and friends do not have. 2. The Hallelujah Diet is simple, but not easy. It is very difficult to change habits of a lifetime and to completely re-learn food planning and preparation. 3. The pressure from the our society to conform to the world's foods is tremendous. As Dr. Fuhrman says "There are WOMD's (Weapons of Mass Destruction) at every street corner in America." 4. Prayer is our best weapon against ignorance and lack of wisdom in diet and lifestyle. Pray daily that God will reveal the truth about health to your loved ones. 5. Be gentle but consistent with your message of health. Live the lifestyle before them. 6. Always be alert to times when you can testify to how the diet and lifestyle has changed someone or yourself. 7. Be knowledgeable and up to date on the latest valid scientific info as well as the propaganda that is rampant. 8. Finally, trust in the Lord and in the power of His might to change the world, including your closest loved ones. Wait patiently, but diligently, for the opportunity to shed light on a darkened world. Give Him glory when He delivers a precious one from the throes of misinformation and misery to the peace and health of obedience to right lifestyle. ............................................................................. Two Web Sites for Health Two of the best web sites we know of for health are Hallelujah Acres new web site at and our own at . Let me point out the benefits of each one: AlphaOmegaFood.com has our personal testimony and daily regimen for health. The plan of salvation and eternal life are prominent on our home page and every page of our web. We also have the full gamut of products to make your Hallelujah Diet and Lifestyle more convenient and effective. Our machines are generally lower priced than Hallelujah Acres because we seek to build a customer list and we don't have the overhead that they do. Some products that we offer are not offered by Hallelujah Acres, such as a large selection of Sprite Shower Filters , which filter out dangerous chlorine from your hot shower water. As you may know, chlorine is absorbed through skin and breathed in a hot shower even more than through drinking the chlorinated water. Chlorine destroys beneficial intestinal flora and is a dangerous toxin. We also have kitchen machines such as the Whisper Mill and Nutrimill grain mills, and K-TEC products. The back issues of our monthly email newsletter are available free for the asking. AlphaOmegaFood.com also offers you information on how to order Hallelujah Acres products. We have BarleyMax, CarrotJuiceMax, and BeetMax pages that fully explain the products and the ingredients in each. We invite our customers to call Hallelujah Acres to order those products using our Pin, ACO. Marilyn and I pray daily for Hallelujah Acres and are in close contact with them. We will be going to Hallelujah Acres in April for more training and look forward to hearing Dr. T. Colin Campbell, promoting his new book, The China Study. If you want more, then go to the new Hallelujah Acres web site and see the improved access and additional services available online. Here is an overview of what's available: The home page has features like a featured recipe, product, and testimony. Also there is a side index where you can find products, programs, online ordering, publications, recipes, testimonies, forums, FAQ's (frequently asked questions), news and events, and Health Minister areas, where Health Ministers can get personalized services. Under Programs, you can even take the "Get Healthy! Stay Balanced" course online! There is much to see and read there, so take a hour or so and browse this wonderful web site. Please keep AlphaOmegaFood.com and Hallelujah Acres in your daily prayers because we both need your support and encouragement. ...........................................................................

The Hallelujah Diet and Lifestyle calls for 85% raw food and 15% cooked food. Why is that? Let me explain. Raw food is that which is full of its God-given enzymes that complete the wide synergy of nutrients in the food. Food enzymes are very fragile proteins in the raw foods. These enzymes allow proper digestion and assimilation of nutrients by acting as catalysts in the metabolic processes of assimilation. Without enzymes our body cannot function and we die. Sunlight, heat, and radiation can kill or render ineffective these food enzymes. Raw fruits and vegetables, when picked at the peak of ripeness, have maximum enzyme activity. Immediately after picking the oxidation and deterioration of the enzymes is initiated. Any heat over 107 degrees Fahrenheit for any length of time can begin to kill most enzymes. Heat over 122 degrees Fahrenheit for any length of time will render all enzymes destroyed. Microwaved foods have no enzyme activity due to the action of the microwaves. Irradiated foods have no enzyme activity. Highly heated foods have no enzyme activity. That's why we refer to these foods as "dead foods". They have no active enzymes that deliver the nutrition to our bodies. It is true that some elements of some foods are more bio-available than others when they are cooked lightly. These include the carotenoids, alpha and beta carotene, and lycopene. But remember, that the purpose of the cooking is to break down the cell walls that enclose the nutrients. Proper chewing or blending or juicing can achieve the same effect of making the nutrients more bio-available. When the body has access to the raw food enzymes, the pancreas is aided and doesn't work as hard to make digestive enzymes. So when we eat mostly raw foods, we relieve the stress on the pancreas and we make available to the body the enzymes that are vital to health and wellness. .......................................................................... Hallelujah Food Show Videos At our weekly "Get Healthy! Stay Balanced" classes one of the favorite things we do is watch the Hallelujah Food Show Videos. Everyone gets out their pads and pencils and writes down recipes. Dave and his guests provide plenty of great raw and cooked food recipes that are delicious and easy. If you don't have the set of them, let me encourage you to get them. Most of them last about 30 minutes, although a couple last longer. You can get the complete set or buy just the ones you want. The titles are: Let's Get Started; Choices, Varieties, and Convenience; Eating In the Outdoors; Feeding Our Children; Holidays and Special Occasions; The Hallelujah Diet at Work and On the Road; and Basics for Great Recipes. You can buy individual videos for $14.95 plus shipping or the entire set for $114.90 plus $8.00 shipping. Just go to or go to our home page and look at the index on the left for the link for "Get Healthy Food Videos". .............................................................................
