THE HARBINGER 31: What Would Jesus Do?

THE HARBINGER - 31

By Luke

"What Would Jesus Eat?�

The book The Ultimate Program for Eating Well, Feeling Great and Living Longer, explores the actual diet of Jesus Christ in biblical times and explains how it can be applied today for healthier living. For those desiring to safely lose weight and for those seeking a healthier, Bible-based eating program, the only question to ask is, What Would Jesus Eat? III John Verse 2. "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth." Our mission is to teach The Church, Our Nation, and Our Neighbors around the world to live and thrive in better health. We communicate this message through books, tapes, the internet, television, radio, and speaking engagements. We are continually updating our material to bring the latest and most accurate information that is available on health.

Hosea 4:6 "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." We believe this is why man has gotten so far from truth. It's our desire to be an instrument of His truth, as we know it. We also believe the King James Bible is God's Word and that the Bible has been preserved

without error. We believe the Bible is the foundation that everyone should build their lives upon in order to grow in mind, body and spirit the way our Lord intended.

Living Food vs. Dead Food

by Dr. Don Colbert All foods are not created equal. In fact, some foods should not be labeled "food" but rather "consumable product" or "edible, but void of nourishment."

Living foods were created for our consumption. They exist in a raw or close-to-raw state. Living foods include fruits, vegetables, grains, seeds, and nuts. They are beautifully packaged in divinely created wrappers called skins and peels. Living food looks robust, healthy, and alive. No chemicals have been added. It has not been bleached or chemically altered. Living foods are plucked, harvested, and squeezed, not processed, packaged, and put on a shelf. Living foods are recognizable as food.

Dead foods are the opposite. They are living foods that have fallen into human hands and have been altered in every imaginable way,

making them last as long as possible at room temperature and to be as addictive as possible to the consumer. That usually means the manufacturer adds considerable amounts of sugar, which is called "dextrose," "corn syrup", "fructose," "glucose," and generally any other food ending in "ose." It also means they add man-made fats that involve taking various oils and heating them to dangerously High temperatures so that the nutrients die and become reborn as something completely different - a deadly, sludgy substance that is toxic to our bodies. That sludgy substance - which is called "hydrogenated" or "partially hydrogenated" oil - is a common ingredient in the American diet and is present in most processed foods from crackers and pastries to hamburger buns. Life breeds life. Death breeds death. When you eat living foods, the enzymes in their pristine state interact with your digestive enzymes. The other natural ingredients God put in them vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, antioxidants, fiber, and more - flow into your system in their natural state. These living foods were created for our digestive systems, bloodstream, and organs.

Dead foods hit our bodies like a foreign intruder. Chemicals, including preservatives, food additives, bleaching agents, and so on, place a strain on the liver. Toxic man-made fats begin to form in our cell membranes and become incorporated in our bodies or stored as fats. They begin to form plaque in our arteries. Fat also contains compounds called leptins. When the small intestine detects leptins, it sends a message to the brain saying, "I'm satisfied, I'm full, stop eating." However, it takes about twenty minutes from the time we start eating for the food to reach our small intestine and leptin is able to signal the brain to stop eating, and most Americans can eat a tremendous amount of food in twenty minutes. Your brain, sending that it still doesn't have the nutrition it needs, sends our hunger signals. You eat again - more of the same dead food. Your body does its best to harvest the tiny traces of good from the food, but in the end you are undernourished, overfed the wrong foods, and overweight. You are, in other words, caught in the trap of the standard American diet, which is a "SAD" and toxic situation.

If you say, "Everyone around me eats 'bad' food, and they all look fine," consider that maybe everyone around is unhealthy, in the process of becoming overweight, and disease-prone. If you want to be a healthy, vibrant, energetic person rather than someone bouncing between all-you-can-eat buggets and fast-food restraunts, take your diet seriously. Now is the time to build the rest of your life on this wonderful pillar of health - living food. eoa
