Do Thyself No Harm
If a person is dealing with, or has a friend or loved one who is dealing with a life-threatening situation such as cancer, I would strongly urge them to read last week’s Health Tip in its entirety in order to understand how various modalities affect the cells of their body at the cellular level either positively or negatively. To understand what is happening at the cellular level of the body is imperative no matter what modalities a person chooses in dealing with any physical breakdown, but especially when dealing with cancer.
Knowledge is power and knowledge places a person in much greater control of their situation. Too often, a person dealing with cancer feels totally out of control when diagnosed; by turning their body over to the control of a doctor or doctors, they lose control and just do what the doctors say — not knowing the ramifications. Final decisions should always be retained by the suffering individual. Friends and loved ones of the person dealing with cancer also need this knowledge because too often in their ignorance they will encourage a cancer victim to go the traditional medical route to the cancer victim’s detriment.
Before a person submits to chemotherapy or radiation, they, along with friends and loved ones, should make themselves fully aware of how these medical modalities will affect the body of the suffering individual at the cellular level:
- Will the modality strengthen the immune system so that the body can better fight and win the battle?
- Or will the modality further weaken an already weakened immune system, making it more difficult for the body to win the battle?
“And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse.”
Before Accepting Any Treatment...
Before accepting treatment for cancer (or any other physical problem for that matter), thoroughly research the prescribed treatment in order to gain sufficient knowledge so that you can better understand its ramifications. Because the Bible warns: “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” The Hallelujah Recovery Diet I am about to share with you, most importantly, does not violate the Hippocratic Oath of “Do the body no harm” as do medical modalities. Yet, while The Recovery Diet is doing the body no harm; it is providing the body with the nutrients needed to rebuild the immune system so that the body has the best chance of restoring integrity to the body at the cellular level.
Now I want to be clear about this: The Hallelujah Recovery Diet has no ability to heal anyone of anything (only the body has that ability), but it does have the ability to enhance the body’s self-healing abilities by aggressively providing the body with the resources needed to rebuild the immune system. As the immune system is strengthened and restored to its God given ability to heal with these resources, the strengthened immune system then has the ability to seek out and destroy cancer cells all by itself — without any help from cell-destroying modalities such as chemotherapy and radiation that suppress the immune system.
The Hallelujah Recovery Diet
On The Recovery Diet we begin by adopting the basic Hallelujah Diet, which contains the nutrients the body desperately needs to begin rebuilding the immune system so it can begin fighting the cancer battle. However, with the Recovery Diet we enhance the nutrient intake in the basic diet in a dramatic way by adding additional nutrients and supplements in an effort to rebuild the immune system even more rapidly by providing the body with all the possible tools (we are currently aware of) the body needs to win the battle.
6 Servings of Vegetable Juice and 6 Servings of BarleyMax
To accomplish a more rapid rebuilding of the immune system, we increase the vegetable juices from three servings a day (as found in the basic Hallelujah Diet) to six servings a day, while increasing the BarleyMax servings from three to six also. We have found these two juices to be the most powerful forms of nutrition we can provide the body in order to rebuild a weakened immune system as rapidly as possible.
With an enhanced immune system the body has a much greater ability to fight and win its war on those cancer cells that have invaded the body. As the immune system is restored to its self-healing ability, it has the capability of searching out malfunctioning cells throughout the body so that healing can begin. In fact, had the body’s immune system been kept strong through good nutrition in the first place, the cancer would most likely never have been able to develop and manifest.
On the Recovery Diet, the 12 juices are consumed on an hourly basis. For example, if one begins at 7:00 a.m. with a BarleyMax, a veggie juice follows at 8:00 a.m.; these juices are alternated every hour until noon. (Stop the juice for an hour at lunch time and enjoy lunch.) Throughout the afternoon, resume alternating the juice and BarleyMax every hour until the evening meal. Then like at lunch time, stop the juice for an hour while you enjoy supper, and then finish alternating the juices hourly in the evening hours until the 12 juices have been consumed.
As we learned earlier, the cells of our body (including immune system cells) are dying and replacing at the rate of approximately 300 million cells per minute. As they die and replace, the quality of the new cell is dependent on the building materials we provide the body. When these juices are provided to the body on an hourly basis, weakened immune cells are replaced with strengthened immune system cells. It's easy to see how the immune system's abilities to heal are enhanced through juicing.
Supplements
Supplements, in and of themselves, have absolutely no power to heal anyone of anything, however, they greatly increase the nutrients available to the body. This helps the immune system to accomplish its healing task more rapidly (without the toxic side-effects of drugs).
Fiber Cleanse
As a person stops consuming toxic substances found in the SAD diet, the body starts to release stored toxins. It is important that these toxins be eliminated in a timely and efficient manner through bowel function. Our goal should be two good movements daily. A good fiber supplement such as Hallelujah Diet Fiber Cleanse assists in the timely removal of these toxins.
Digestive Enzymes
We want to enable the body to digest all food intakes in a timely manner for maximum absorption of the nutrients. This absorption is encouraged by taking a Hallelujah Diet Digestive Enzyme capsule with each juice and 2 to 4 with each meal containing fiber foods for the first 3-4 weeks, followed by 2 with each meal only when fiber foods are consumed.
Probiotics
Taking one Hallelujah Diet Professional Strength Probiotic capsule twice daily for 3 to 4 weeks will help rebuild a healthy balance of intestinal flora. After the 3-4 weeks, it is advisable to continue using 1 capsule daily in order to maintain that healthy balance of intestinal flora.
Curcumin
Curcumin is the biologically active extract of the turmeric spice, which supplies the body with an abundance of free radical fighting nutrients and immune system support. Hallelujah Acres suggests 1 capsule of Hallelujah Diet Professional Strength Curcumin daily. This formulation contains the patented CurQfen® which is much more bio-available than traditional curcumin supplements.
Iodine
Iodine supplementation supports the thyroid and immune system. Hallelujah Diet suggests using Nascent Iodine daily. (Suggested reading: Breast Cancer and Iodine, by David Derry, M.D.)
Selenium / Glutathione Promoter
The ingredients in this supplement work synergistically to combat free-radical damage in the body. Selenium not only protects the thyroid when taking higher levels of iodine, but it also is a part of the selenoenzyme glutathione peroxidase, an enzyme that is part of every cell's antioxidant defense system. Glutathione peroxidase detoxifies hydrogen peroxide in the body, converting it into water. N-acetyl cysteine is this formula enables you to produce more glutathione. Alpha-lipoic acid, vitamin E and zinc in this formula also support immune activation against disease and pathogens.
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D3 offers a broad range of health benefits especially for those fighting serious disease, but sun exposure is often not sufficient to meet the body’s need of D3. Recent research reveals that 5,000 to 10,000 IU per day of vitamin D3 may provide significant health benefits. Optimal blood levels should be 50 to 80 ng/ml.
Essential Fatty Acids
When following a plant-based diet, it is important to ensure that a good source of essential fats is available. One teaspoon of Arctic Cod Liver Oil helps meet that need by providing the long chain omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA.
B12
This supplement has already been recommended in the basic Hallelujah Diet but is included here because it is extremely important for so many reasons and there is no B12 to be found in any plant sourced food. B12 is found in algae, but only in an analog form which the body cannot utilize. Hallelujah Diet has a sublingual B12 (methylcobalamin), B6, folate supplement to ensure adequate levels of all three nutrients.
Liposomal Vitamin C
(Editor's note: Liposomal Vitamin C was not available when George Malkmus originally wrote this article. We have now added it to our Recovery Diet as George would have requested us to do if he were here.)
Intravenous vitamin C has been used to powerfully quench the ravaging effects of disease within people's bodies. But it is inconvenient and can't be done every day. You need vitamin C to support you between IV treatments, or when IV treatment is not available to you. Liposomes, which are tiny fat globules with a payload in the water-filled center, are shuttled without digestion into the bloodstream, and then right into the cells of the body. It is the most absorbable, powerful form of vitamin C available. IV vitamin C gets into the bloodstream, but liposomal vitamin C can be shuttled into cells very effectively.
