Success Story:
“I was about 50 pounds overweight, had high blood
pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and was experiencing anxiety attacks, and joint
pain. But after only two months on The Hallelujah Diet, I had lost nearly 50 pounds, my
blood work was perfect, and I was experiencing no more anxiety attacks or pain, and
my diabetes was gone. This diet has kept me healthy and disease-free for over six years
now. Hallelujah!” ~ Malinda D.
Water Wisdom
We don’t think of “nutritional deficiency” in terms of getting
enough water — but we should. Chronic dehydration
diminishes physical and mental performance and is a major,
underlying cause of many common ailments.

Americans are
Dehydrated
The raw foods and juices in the 85% raw portion of The
Hallelujah Diet contain abundant water in its purest form
— raw vegetables and fruits. Drinking distilled water is also
recommended.
Chronic Stress = Chronic Disease
Stress arouses the adrenaline system. Short periods of stress (whether pleasant
or unpleasant) are not damaging, but a constant, increased flow of adrenaline
produces a number of serious consequences, including:
• an increase in the production of blood cholesterol
• a decrease in the body’s ability to remove cholesterol
• an increase in the depositing of plaque on the walls of the arteries

Don’t Give Up Your Favorite Foods!
You don’t need to “give up” your favorite food to be healthy.
Just replace it with a healthier version of the same food.
Take burgers, for example. If you really think about it, the thing
you love about burgers is not the meat — it’s the savory
spices, smoky flavor, crisp lettuce and tomato, fresh bun,
and of course, the ketchup and mustard.
Each one of these flavors can be enjoyed whether
you choose a health-deteriorating meat
patty or replace it with a cellbuilding, immune-boosting
masterpiece of plantbased, whole food like
our Black Bean Burger.
