Who doesn't want to loss weight fast and live with a slim and healthy looking body. Especially for ladies, it is just as important as like a diamond in today's society.Unfortunately, the mass media and advertisement today are not really responsible for all the information which they have provided.Some of the methods and tips they introduce to the public are not true at all.We always heard that " you want truth?Go to the bIble".Well,it is not a joke.In fact,the Bible does talk about Truth about diet.We call this Bible based Diet.What's that?Let's take a look.
Actually , Bible based diet is not a new fad. If you are familiar with the Old Testament, you know that very specific rules regarding clean and unclean foods were spelled out. Today,the Jewish are still following certain guidelines depending upon the time of week or year and the type of food allowed or restricted, so a diet based on biblical beliefs is always there and it is certainly not a new concept.
Perhaps,you've heard all the talk about organic foods. and many people have taken this a step further by incorporating a belief that eating natural, organic foods is a Biblical way of taking care of our bodies. Some would take as an method for weight loss that — eating only what can be grown, in other words vegetables, fruits, and nuts.
Over-indulgence is harmful to the body and eat only what your body needs to remain is healthy. This train of thought pretty much eliminates sugars, white flours, etc., but you already knew that in order to lose weight you had to cut back on these, right? So, what types of biblical diets are available, and do they work?There are two of them:
Hallelujah Acres Diet
George Malkmus is the founder of Hallelujah Acres and its diet, also referred to as Biblical NUTRITION 101. According to this site, "Biblical Nutrition 101 provides the information needed to not only restore health, but also, in most instances, disease-proof the entire family." It involves a twelve week course that can be downloaded directly from the site for free.Well, the founder is pastor and it is free,so why not to visit the site and check it out.
Probably the most commonly known Bible-oriented diet is the Weigh Down Diet. Its founder, Gwen Shamblin, is a registered dietician and the creator of the "Exodus Out of Egypt" weight loss programs. The Weigh Down Workshop has been in over 60 different countries. The principles around this diet involve feeding the heart in order to feed the stomach. Relying on the belief that many people resort to food for comfort (and sometimes to reduce stress), Shamblin's program encourages people to turn to God first and eat only to nourish the body…not the mind and heart. The Weigh Down Diet's method is to losing weight incorporates the following points:
- Learn how to feed the stomach only when it is truly hungry.
- Learn how to feed or nourish the longing human soul with a relationship with God.
- Learn how to recognize the different "hungers" and not confuse them.
