Are US Foods Affected by Japanese Nuclear Fallout?
Jul 16th
A number of people have written expressing concern over potential dangers from radiation fallout following the tsunami that compromised three nuclear reactors in Japan:
“Since the nuclear reactor explosions and happenings that have taken place in Japan, my husband and I have been very reluctant to eat fresh vegetables, especially salad greens. Up until recently, salad has been a big part of our diet, so I am wondering what your advice would be. What do you use since most salad greens are grown in California and might be contaminated with radiation? Thank you for your advice.”
Eleta M.
EDITOR RESPONDS – Since it may be almost impossible to avoid foods that have been contaminated by nuclear meltdown in Japan, our best option is to insure our bodies have adequate supplies of iodine by supplementation and that we have optimal intake of magnesium, either by way of an abundance of green foods or supplements. There have been reports of radiation exposure even on the east coast of the U.S., so it appears that even home grown vegetation may be contaminated to some extent. In the times in which we are living, it is imperative that we nourish our bodies the best way we possibly can with a primarily raw plant based diet.
“Since the earthquake in Japan and the toxic waste of radiation being poured into the air and ocean, I am afraid to buy BarleyMax from Japan. Can we get BarleyMax from any other place? And what about the radioactive cloud that landed on the California soil? Is it safe to buy California produce?”
EDITOR RESPONDS – BarleyMax is not grown in Japan or in California, but rather at the 5,000 foot elevation in the Rocky Mountains and watered only with deep, mineral-rich well water. With regard to food grown in California, it is almost impossible to avoid foods that have been contaminated to some extent by those nuclear meltdowns in Japan. Our best option is to ensure our bodies have adequate supplies of iodine by supplementation. Green leafy vegetables are particularly good sources of magnesium. Rhonda and I both take iodine supplementation each and every day along with large amounts of deep green salad greens from spinach and kale in our daily ‘green smoothies’ and blended salads.”

The Disappearing Cancers!
Jul 14th
If modern medicine could obtain the results The Hallelujah Acres Diet produces in restoring people’s health, it would be front page headlines in tomorrow’s newspapers and on the evening news tonight!
But since Hallelujah Acres doesn’t have control over tomorrow’s newspapers or the evening news, we share these testimonies the best way possible — with you… one on one.
Twelve years ago I was diagnosed with Stage 4, metastasized, melanoma cancer! Concerned about the potential for further damage to my body if I accepted medical modalities, I refused all medical treatments and adopted the 100% plant-based Hallelujah Diet.
Ever since then I have followed God’s basic health principles as set forth in the Bible and can confirm that not only did my cancer go away twelve years ago, but my health is better today in my 40’s than it was in my 20’s when first diagnosed with cancer.
What I have learned is that each of us has the opportunity to be satisfied with that which God has provided in garden foods for our nourishment, or we can seek to be satisfied by what the world has to offer. I have learned that the very best health results comes by consuming the foods God has provided in the garden – the fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts He told us we should consume for nourishment in Genesis 1:29.
If we reject the nourishment God designed our bodies to be nourished with and consume the world’s SAD diet, then we must accept the consequences of ill health. If we will only accept and be satisfied with what God has provided for our nourishment coming from these garden foods, and refuse to be conformed to what the world has to offer (See Romans 12:2), God will help us to see the truth, and truth when applied will set us free from sickness.

Dear Rev. Malkmus. I had breast cancer four years ago and beat it following The Hallelujah Diet.
I have told hundreds about you and sent them to your website. Unfortunately, I started traveling a lot and got off your diet and lifestyle about a year ago and my cancer has returned.
I am currently waiting to see the results of the biopsy to see to what extent it has returned. I will not do chemotherapy or radiation as they are telling me I will need to do.
I have seriously considered becoming a Hallelujah Acres Health Minister, but need to restore my health once again before I can do that. I will keep you informed of my progress as I have already returned to The Hallelujah Diet. Rev. Malkmus, your strength and courage are an inspiration to me and I ask that you keep me in your prayers. Thanks for all you do.

Praise the Lord Brother Malkmus. I read your book “Why Christians Get Sick” years ago and was so encouraged by it. Then in November 2010 I was diagnosed with cancer and had a Fibro Sarcoma cancer removed from my chest wall.
The Lord used that experience to remind me of what you had said in your book and how God could heal us through natural means.
So I refused the doctor’s orders for chemotherapy and radiation and rather chose God’s way for the healing of my body. Because I chose ‘God’s Way’, I am today totally well and cancer free.
Thanks be to God for giving us a diet that will not only prevent illness, but even restore us to health. I so appreciate you and your dear family and all the good things you all are doing to educate and help people around the world. The Hallelujah Acres Ministry is truly a ministry that is well pleasing to the Lord. Thanks so much and keep up the great work you are doing.

Hello Rev. Malkmus. I am writing you from State Prison where I am currently being incarcerated for drunk driving. My wife has multiple myeloma cancer and I believe through God and the information in your book she can be made well.
I got hold of and read your book ‘Why Christians Get Sick while here in prison and it has been a blessing to me. Thank you for writing it. When I get out of prison on August 13, we both are going to start The Hallelujah Diet.
We would both love to attend your first Saturday of the Month seminar there in Shelby and I would like to become a Health Minister. I want to thank you for writing such an informative book and I look forward to meeting you my dear Brother Malkmus.”

Where Is God In Time Of Sickness?
Jul 12th
This will possibly be the most controversial Health Tip of the 700+ Health Tips I have written in nearly 14 years.
My reason for writing what I believe will be a controversial Health Tip was prompted by the poll that appeared on my Health Tip site during the month of June.
The poll question was: “What Do You Think Offers The Best Hope In Dealing With Cancer?”
Then followed six possible responses:
(1) Changed diet and lifestyle
(2) Prayer
(3) Good doctors and cancer hospital
(4) Chemo, radiation, and surgery
(5) Health insurance
(6) No idea
Following are the results from the 1,930 people who took the poll:
- Changed diet and lifestyle (76% with 1,474 votes)
- Prayer (22% with 416 votes)
- No Idea (1% with 17 votes)
- Good doctors and cancer hospital (1% with 16 votes)
- Chemo, radiation, and surgery (less than 1% with 5 votes)
- Health Insurance (less than 1% with 2 votes)
What I want to do now is comment on each of these responses. I will begin with the least votes and proceed to the response that drew the most.
Health Insurance
This was probably the most unexpected response. The huge hullabaloo for years has been regarding health insurance and the government’s attempt to force everyone into a national health care insurance plan. Yet this poll regarding what offered the “best hope in dealing with cancer” revealed that having health insurance came in dead last with only 2 votes. Apparently the readers of this Health Tip do not believe having health insurance offers a lot of hope in overcoming cancer.
Chemo, Radiation, and Surgery
These medical modalities which are paid for by health insurance didn’t fare much better than “Health Insurance” – only 5 votes. And like health insurance, our subscribers didn’t feel that “chemo, radiation, and surgery” offered a lot of hope in overcoming cancer, either.
Good Doctors and Cancer Hospitals
This response with only 14 votes was barely enough votes to register 1%. Apparently very few subscribers to this Health Tip still believe doctors and hospitals provide the best hope when dealing with cancer.
No Idea
The number of responses to this was no surprise to me with 14 votes and 1% the same response we got to “Good Doctors and Cancer Hospitals”. There is so much confusion out there today as to what one should do and what offers the best hope after a cancer diagnosis.
One of the primary reasons I have dedicated so much of my life to writing these Health Tips is my burden to help people, especially God’s people, realize that there is a better way to deal with cancer, along with all other physical problems, than the “World’s way” of health insurance, doctors, hospitals, and the medical modalities of drugs, chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.
I call this far better, alternative way of dealing with the physical needs of our glorious God-created bodies as “God’s Way.” Interestingly, God’s Way almost totally eliminates any need for the World’s Way of health insurance, hospitals, doctors, drugs, chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.
It is interesting to note what the Bible has to say about the “World’s Way” in I Corinthians 3:19
“For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.”
Another verse I find very interesting in this regard is found in Romans 12:2:
“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.”
And that leads me to the next response which many no doubt will find what I write surprising, and for some possibly upsetting…
Prayer
Prayer came in second as offering the best hope in dealing with cancer with 21% (359 votes). Indeed, there are many Bible verses that tell us that when we pray, God hears and answers our prayers:
“And in all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.” (Matthew 21:22)
Does the “all things” in this verse mean prayers for healing?
“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, HE HEARETH US: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.” (I John 5:14-15)
Another verse which indicates God not only hears but answers prayers.
“Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. . . “(James 5:14-15)
The Reality…
In most churches, requests for healing of physical problems is the dominant prayer request. I believe most readers will agree with this statement.
Now I have a question for you: Do we ever see people for whom we pray not receive healing in response to prayer? The answer to that question brings me to the subject of this Health Tip.
For nearly 20 years of my life I pastored Bible believing churches. I still believe that the Bible is the very word of God (II Timothy 3:16-17). I also believe that the God of the Bible is also a prayer-answering God. “Call unto me and I will answer thee . . .” (Jeremiah 33:3).
As pastor of both large and small congregations, numerous people asked me to pray for their physical needs and problems or those of a loved one. Not only would I earnestly beseech God in prayer on their behalf for healing, but I would also share these prayer requests with the congregation.
Sadly, there were numerous times when I and the congregation would pray for someone’s healing, especially someone with cancer, and yet in spite of all the prayers offered, the person did not receive healing, and I had to perform their funeral.
I sadly recall a precious 23-year-old Christian mother with three children and a Godly husband who was diagnosed with cancer. Oh how we prayed, and yet she died after incredible amounts prayer and all the medical community could do for her. At the funeral I had the task of trying to comfort the bereaving friends and loved ones.
I remember a little 12-year-old girl who had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. We prayed earnestly and sincerely for this young lady, yet to no avail. And once again I had to try and comfort friends and loved ones at her funeral.
I remember praying along with millions around the world for John Rice and Bill Rice, two outstanding evangelists. They were seriously ill, yet they still died after abundant prayer for their healing. I remember all the prayers for Bob Jones Sr. regarding his senility, yet his mind continued to deteriorate after so many prayers.
I remember while attending a Jack Hyles Preachers Conference, when on the last night of the conference Jack Hyles asked us to pray for Bob Hughes, a 45-year-old missionary to the Philippines, and pastor of a church of some 20,000. Bob had been diagnosed with cancer and given less than six months to live.
That evening over 1,200 preachers got on their knees and prayed for this brother’s healing. We were then admonished to take this prayer request for healing back to our churches. As a result, hundreds of thousands of Christians around the world prayed for Bob Hughes healing. Yet, HE DIED shortly thereafter.
Where Is God In Time Of Sickness
These and other examples of unanswered prayer for physical healing began to really bother and then upset me. I began to ask myself (and God), “Where is God in Time of Sickness?”
At Age 42 I’m Told I Have Cancer
The answer to “Where is God in Time of Sickness” did come. But first let me share some of the experiences that led to the answer:
In 1976, while pastor of a very successful church in Glens Falls, New York, a church that had grown from just my family of six to over 600 members in six years, I was told I had colon cancer.
Of course I prayed and the people in the church prayed. But instead of experiencing a miraculous healing in response to these prayers, these prayers led me to an evangelist in Texas by the name of Lester Roloff.
Brother Roloff was known not only for his love for the Lord and for great preaching, but also for his attempts to get people, especially preachers, to change their diets. We used to call him affectionately “Ol’ carrot juice Roloff.”
Sadly, his health message was for the most part not only rejected by the majority of preachers in his day, but criticized, and he was encouraged to stick to the preaching of the Word and to stop meddling with the diet of others.
I was not seeing healing of my cancer taking place as a result of prayer. Nor did I have faith in the medical community because my mother had previously died following years of medical treatments (I felt these treatments had ultimately caused her death). So, I made contact with brother Roloff and shared my concern regarding my cancer.
Not wanting to end up like brother Hughes (and watch my ministry terminate at age 42), I was willing to seek counsel and wisdom from my elder brother in the faith concerning my cancer.
What brother Roloff encouraged me to do was so simple — and as I have since learned — so profound. He encouraged me to not go the medical route with my cancer but rather to do something simple: change what I ate from the world’s meat-based, sugar-laden diet, to the diet God gave Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden over 6,000 years ago. The diet God articulates in Genesis 1:29.
I made the diet change brother Roloff recommended overnight. Within days the rectal bleeding from my colon cancer had stopped. Within a year, my baseball-sized tumor under my left rib cage had disappeared… all without any medical intervention.
My personal experience with cancer took place in 1976 at the age of 42. I am writing this Health Tip 35 years later, just two years shy of my 80th birthday. I am still alive and well on planet earth, extremely active, experiencing a healthy body and sound mind, still serving my Jesus, and trying to help others realize that they don’t have to be sick.
Stay Tuned…
Next week, the good Lord willing and if the creeks don’t rise too high, I will share how God revealed to me the answer to: “Where is God in Time of Sickness?”
I will share WHY, though we know we have a prayer-hearing God (John 5:14), often our prayers for healing of self, friends, or loved ones go unanswered. I pray that you will join us, because the information I share in next week’s Health Tip has the potential of possibly saving your life or that of a loved one.
“Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. . . “(James 5:14-15)
115 New Health Ministers Graduate
Jul 11th
This past week we held our 76th Health Minister Training here at Hallelujah Acres International Headquarters in Shelby, NC.
On Friday afternoon 115 new Health Ministers received their diplomas and joined more than 10,000 previously trained Health Ministers. Seven pastors were among the graduates, who add to more than 900 who have previously graduated from the program.
These new Health Ministers were here from around the world: Russia, Japan, Australia, South Africa, Nigeria, Madagascar, Costa Rica, Canada, and from most states in the United States.
Those from Russia, Japan, Madagascar, and Costa Rica are the first Health Ministers in their respective countries, and all are excited about taking God’s health message back to their fellow countrymen! Prior to this Health Minister training we had trained Health Ministers from not only every state in the U.S., but 50 foreign lands.
Our first Health Minister Training was held in August 1994. Since then, we have held trainings at least three times each year ever since.
Our next Health Minister Training here at Hallelujah Acres will be on Wednesday through Friday, November 9 through 11, 2011. Sign up here!
Rev. Malkmus’ 2-Day Workshop
This past Monday and Tuesday, Rev. Malkmus held his popular 2-Day Workshop, attended by a record 76 participants!
Those attending this 2-Day Workshop spend two days with Rev. Malkmus to learn the finer points of The Hallelujah Diet.
This program is one of three possible prerequisites for Health Minister Training. The other two options are to attend a Hallelujah Acres Lifestyle Center or complete Hallelujah Acres’ “Get Healthy Stay Balanced” course.
Our next 2-Day Workshop with Rev. Malkmus is scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, November 7-8, 2011. Sign up here!
Rev. Malkmus Meets With Polish Book Distributor
This past Thursday afternoon, Rev. Malkmus met with a Polish businessman and his wife. This gentleman shared that he had been scheduled for bariatric surgery for his obese condition. The doctors had given him glowing testimonies of others who had successfully lost considerable weight following this surgery.
However, as he searched the Internet for more information, he discovered that many people who underwent this surgery had developed some pretty nasty long-term side effects.
So, he cancelled his surgery and he and his wife adopted The Hallelujah Diet. Thus far, he has lost more than 75 pounds and his wife is recovering from breast cancer.
This personal experience has inspired this man to bring The Hallelujah Diet to his countrymen whom he said are just as sick as the people in America.
His desire led him to obtain permission to publish Rev. Malkmus’ latest book “The Hallelujah Diet” in Polish — and it is already selling well in Poland! This book is also being translated into Spanish and French.
He is now in the midst of publishing Rev. Malkmus’ original book “Why Christians Get Sick” into Polish as well! There are more than one million copies of this book in print in the English language.
Rev. Malkmus says, “I can’t begin to tell you how exciting it is to see how a cancer experience I had, that led me to adopting the Genesis 1:29 diet for my recovery, has resulted in God’s health message being taken to the world by over 10,000 trained Health Ministers now located in every state in the U.S. and 54 foreign lands!”
Today, millions of people around the world have adopted The Hallelujah Diet, while tens of thousands have shared that they have recovered from over 170 different health challenges, including terminal cancers, by simply adopting God’s original Genesis 1:29 diet. May their numbers grow!
