Interesting Bible-Based Diet
Jordan Rubin is a cool guy. He teaches people how have better health by following the health laws found in the Bible.
When Jordan was just 19, he was suffering from a list of debilitating conditions, including intestinal parasites, abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, liver problems, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, arthritis, prostate and bladder infections, irregular heartbeat, eye inflammation, and chronic depression.
Jordan was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. Though he was not familiar with the disease, he soon learned that his future looked bleak. He was told that medications would keep him alive, but quickly discovered that their side effects were nearly as bad as the disease itself. Science knew of no cause or cure for Crohn’s at the time, and his prognosis was very poor.
After both conventional and alternative medicines failed him, and after 70 health professionals in seven countries put him through more than 500 different — and often bizarre — treatments, he was sent home in a wheelchair to die.
His world changed when his father contacted an eccentric nutritionist who said he believed Jordan was ill because he was not eating the diet of the Bible.
For the first time in his long battle, he saw some improvement in his health after integrating the nutritionist’s program with his own findings about nutrition and health from the Bible.
Jordan believes his survival is a true testament to the power of his faith in God and the revolutionary health program he calls The Maker's Diet. In the seven years since his recovery, he has not shown any symptoms of the disease that nearly took his life.
Jordan's new book, called "The Maker's Diet"
Here's what Jordan says about The Maker's Diet: "Most of us eat great quantities of food frequently, based on convenience. In fact, the entire fast-food and TV-dinner industries have flourished due to our fast-paced lifestyles that demand we eat convenience foods.
Unfortunately, the Creator didn't design our bodies to operate at optimum levels on junk food, fast food, or prepackaged foods prepared in microwave ovens. His laws that govern our entire human nature, including our health, bring consequences when violated, whether or not we accept the fact that they are still in place.
Just 100 years ago, the average American diet was dramatically different.
All of God's laws are like His law of gravity — they can't be changed. Our Creator specifically designed us to function best on The Maker's Diet. In order to benefit from His plan, we must examine exactly which foods are unclean, unhealthy, or unacceptable according to both God and science.
Just 100 years ago or less, the diet of the average American was dramatically different from what we call table fare today. Widespread corporate mono-agriculture with concentration on single-crop specialties and chemical fertilizers and pesticides was unheard of then, so the typical diet consisted mostly of fruits, vegetables, wild grain and seeds, fish, meat from wild animals, and raw, unpasteurized dairy products.
Today, we're living to eat, rather than eating to live! But The Maker's Diet can help you change that. Experience the vibrant health the Creator designed just for you."
There's a new website that talks about The Maker’s Diet and what to eat when following it. CLICK HERE to go there.
Jordan Rubin also started the company Garden of Life which makes what I think are the best vitamins and supplements I've found. Their vitamins are expensive but when I can afford them I buy them. They contain not only vitamins and minerals but also important herbs, fruits and vegetables, and other supplements which we all could probably use more of. You can find Garden of Life products at quality health food stores and vitamin places like The Vitamin Shoppe.
