Bible-based diets are latest diet fad

by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor

Can you really lose weight by following the nutritional advice found in the Bible? Without a doubt: in Biblical times, people didn't have junk food, soft drinks, refined white sugar and other obesity prometing ingredients like MSG to worry about. The Bible can help, but the big factor is today's toxic food supply.



Thou shalt not eat junk food or snack between meals is the 11th commandment for millions of Americans caught up in a Bible-based slimming craze.

In The Weigh Down Diet, Gwen Shamblinadvises readers to stick within "God's perfect boundaries of hunger and fullness" if they want to shed a pound or two.

He argues that, in Biblical times, people who ate a raw diet lived an average of 912 years, although concedes he lacks the science to prove it.

That, says Mr Rubin - who describes himself as "a biblical health coach" - means eating yoghurt derived from raw, fermented milk rather than the pasteurised, low-fat, flavoured variety.
