The Hallelujah Diet Heals?
Amen! That is probably a chorus in agreement in response to the question, does the hallelujah diet really heal the people who are on the hallelujah diet. But does it really?
To be honest I never really knew what this hallelujah diet was all about, in fact it was not until some weeks ago that I kept coming across it on the news and finally I clicked a link to find out what it was. So if you are wondering just what the hallelujah diet is all about, keep reading and I will tell you what I dug up about this diet.
The Hallelujah diet is a diet that is promoted by Rev. George Malkmus. Like many popular diets today, the hallelujah has had its share of controversy which has something to do with its curative claims. Doctors and professional nutritionists are challenging its curative claims, saying their is no scientific proof that supports the claim; on the other hand Rev. Malkmus maintains that it is indeed scientifically validated and can even prolong a persons life.
But what sort of food is allowed in a hallelujah diet? This diet puts emphasis on raw fruits and vegetables, and whole grains. Nothing really new actually, and is advice common to other diets. What really is cause for argument is its supposed ability to cure numerous diseases. As a supplement to this diet, you have to buy Malkmus’ own trademarked dietary supplements, the most common of these supplements are Barley Max, Carrot Max and Vitamin B12.
I’d say this is good marketing, especially with a clear cut target market for the hallelujah diet and his products, who mainly belong to Christian communities such as Baptists, Charismatics, and Pentecostals.
So does the hallelujah diet really work?
I can’t really say for sure, as I have not really tried it myself. The bottom line is, fruits and vegetables have always been recommended as part of a healthy diet, but knowing that fruits and vegetables are not enough, we have to complement this with other nutrient sources and keep intake within certain limits, within what doctors or professional nutritionists would recommend to be a healthy and balanced diet.
