Rev. Malkmus Florida Speaking Tour A Great Success
Over the past nine days we have delivered six “God’s Way to Ultimate Health” seminars in six different Florida cities! We also taped a TV show with Arthelene Rippy for her “Home Keepers Show, conducted a 20-minute radio broadcast on the Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church’s FM station, and delivered the Sunday morning message at the Grace Chapel Church in Jacksonville, Florida. What a tour!
Average attendance for the six seminars was over 200, and the testimonies which preceded each of the seminars were spectacular! More than a dozen people in each seminar shared all the physical problems that simply disappeared after adopting The Hallelujah Diet. It is so rewarding to see and hear how some people, sharing in tears, have been able to restore their health and even save their lives by simply changing their diet and lifestyle.
In the Bradenton seminar, a medical doctor was in attendance. He shared that while in medical school he had been given a copy of my book “Why Christians Get Sick.” The information in the book caused him to abandon an allopathic approach for his practice and pursue a holistic approach! Today he is a board certified family physician and has a Hallelujah Acres trained Health Minister on staff to help patients adopt The Hallelujah Diet which he says is foundational in restoring his patients to wellness.
Another highlight of the trip was being with Health Minister Graeme Coad and his dear wife Bev, who sponsored our Jacksonville seminar. Graeme had been Chaplin for the 700 Club for over 10 years when he was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer in 1995. He was given only a few years to live — but then adopted The Hallelujah Diet. What a thrill to hear him share his testimony! Now, at 74 years of age, he is still going strong and cancer-free on The Hallelujah Diet.
Thank you to all who prayed for these meeting and safe travel.
A Little Change Can Do A Lot!
Jan 20th
I so appreciate the constant flow of testimonies, telling of improved health as a result of adopting The Hallelujah Diet. So many days they make my day! Please keep them coming — I read each one.
“Hi George, your Hallelujah Diet is the most awesome diet I have ever been on or read about. Please keep those Health Tips and magazines coming! They are great! Since adopting The Hallelujah Diet I have lost 14 pounds and feel better than I ever I have ever felt before.”

“Hello Rev. Malkmus, I recently was given a copy of your book ‘Why Christians Get Sick’ by my great-grandmother who wanted to make sure that I not only had the book but that I read it. She is over 100 years old and claims that the health principles contained in your book are responsible for her long life.
Well, I just read the book from beginning to end and am inspired to make some healthy changes. I am 36 years old and in pretty good health, but do have some physical and emotional problems that could use a little improving.
I agree with you wholeheartedly that most Americans need to consume more raw fruits and vegetables. Thank you for your dedication to health.”

“My brother died of a massive heart attack at the age of 68. My sister, also in her late 60s, currently has lung cancer. I am also in my late 60s, but because of a change in diet and lifestyle have seen my physical problems go away.
I started out by following the teachings of Dr. Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn, and was following Dr. Esselstyn’s diet when I came upon The Hallelujah Diet. The results of making this diet change have been phenomenal! My cholesterol levels now range between 128 and 140, with my LDL (to the amazement of my doctor) is 42 and my HDL 48.
Before the diet change I was a diabetic and on insulin, but as a result of the diet change I have been able to throw away all diabetic medication and my A1C is 5.2, again, to the amazement of my doctor.
I am thrilled to have learned how I can protect myself against heart attack and stroke and make my body disease proof. Blessed be the name of the Lord who has chosen to reveal to me both spiritual life and physical health. Thank you for the work you are doing in helping so many and may God bless you and yours.”

“I have tremendous respect for your mission in life. My wife (who is battling cancer) and I spent five days at a Hallelujah Acres Lifestyle Center. I have a question: ‘I am 71 years old and in exceptional health. However, I take over 25 supplements each day. I need advice as to what supplements I should take in order to remain healthy. I’m sure this question is one many others have as well and would join with me in appreciating your response.”
Jim H.
EDITOR RESPONDS – The need for supplementation varies from one individual to another depending upon their diet and personal health situation. Most people on The Hallelujah Diet do not need aggressive supplementation.
Basic areas for consideration for most people include obtaining adequate B-12, Omega 3 fats (especially DHA), and Vitamin D3 (blood levels should be 60 ng/ml or higher). Enzymes would also be helpful when consuming cooked foods. Some folks, especially those who consume chlorinated water or have taken antibiotics (which destroy friendly bacteria) need probiotic supplementation to restore the friendly bacteria in the gut. BarleyMax is a fundamental component of the diet and is not considered a supplement because it is a whole living food.
Please remember that I am not a medical doctor and therefore cannot give medical advice.
Spreading The Message of Hope and Healing
Jan 6th
Thank you for all the wonderful letters and Christmas greetings I received in recent weeks! I read each one and share as many as possible in this Health Tip — please keep them coming!
“My husband and I have been enjoying The Hallelujah Diet for just over a year now and feel wonderful and encouraged at 70 years of age. Thanks for hearing from God and passing on this wonderful health restoring information to us.”
Margaret and Billy D.
“It has probably been 15 years since we first came to Hallelujah Acres, were inspired by your health message and passion, and took your Health Minister training. We continue to share the concept of a plant based diet (primarily raw) and the increasing of greens to our patients in our clinic here in the state of Washington.
We are happy and thankful this Christmas season for the wonderful work your organization continues to do and the information it continues to provide.”
Health Ministers Dr. Avery and Lisa M.
“Rev. George, I have been inspired by you over the years and want to thank you for sharing your testimony and for providing knowledge and a wealth of educational opportunities regarding health and wellness. I intend to do your Health Minister training in 2011 and am very interested in taking up residence in The Villages of Hallelujah Acres there in Shelby, North Carolina. I think The Villages is an awesome concept and am praying to be able to relocate there. Thank you and God Bless!”
Marlene M.
“Dr. Malkmus, before adopting The Hallelujah Diet I was sluggish and tired most of the time and was dealing with bouts of depression. Each month during my menstrual cycle both tiredness and depression were even worse along with headaches, irritability, pressure, bloating and cramps.
Since beginning The Hallelujah Diet most symptoms have either gone completely away or have decreased tremendously. I am now a much happier, easy going person, so much so that my husband stated recently that he has enjoyed being married to me more these past couple months since my diet change than he has all our 22 years of marriage. Isn’t it amazing what God can and will do in our lives if we will just listen and allow ourselves to learn and then apply what we have learned?
Since making the diet and lifestyle change I have also noticed that cuts and bruises heal much more rapidly, that my energy level is great, and I have lost 30 pounds.
“I first learned about Hallelujah Acres when a local church offered a ‘Bigger Loser’ program which my parents and I participated in. My motivation was to get my parents into the program because mother was almost 100 pounds overweight, and a diabetic with high blood pressure.
I was also interested in starting a similar program here at our Bible College. The program consisted of participants weighing in, attending a devotional and informative health class each week, which in addition to learning so much wonderful information about health, resulted in both my parents getting saved.
In one of those early meetings in October, Judy P. gave testimony of how The Hallelujah Diet had changed her life in just the few months she had been on it. She had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, which she had suffered with for some 20 years, taking many medications because of her inability to move and sleep. It was her testimony that motivated both my parents and I to try The Hallelujah Diet and we have all been hooked ever since.
“Working at a Bible College I have felt God leading me to learn more and more about health and nutrition so that I can teach others how to eat and live a healthier, more active lifestyle so that they will be better prepared to minister to others in their churches and on the mission field.
Now that I have completed Hallelujah Acres Health Minister training I can’t wait to get started sharing this information. When people ask me how I lost 30 pounds and why I look and feel so good, I love telling them how God has shown me a better way to eat and live my life, a life I have found to be more abundant both physically and spiritually. Hallelujah!”
Health Minister Sandra S., Pineville, Kentucky
No Insurance A Blessing In Disguise
Dec 27th
I find your letters such a blessing and so inspirational as you share with me how The Hallelujah Diet has benefited you or a loved one. I in turn share some of these letters in these Health Tips so that others might be blessed and inspired as I have been. So please keep those letters coming.
“I have been following fairly closely The Hallelujah Diet for several years and the results have been astounding. Sickness has become obsolete and I am feeling great!
But I am writing to you today to tell you about my mother who was diagnosed two weeks ago with Stage 4 colon cancer metastasized to her lungs and liver. The doctors told her that no matter what she did to treat the cancer she would die soon.
The doctors said that they could extend her life maybe three months if they removed the tumor and put a bag on her side to collect the feces, and maybe extend her life as much as two years if she took chemotherapy. I of course told her that in my opinion chemotherapy would destroy her immune system and she would die miserable and very sick.
It is a good thing she has no insurance because the docs said she couldn’t afford chemotherapy at the cost of $2,100.00 per session.
The good thing is that she wanted me to immediately start juicing for her. We have worked up to six fresh vegetable juices a day along with four servings of BarleyMax and she has gone totally vegan. I have also supplied her with Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, and iodine supplementation. She is eating a little more cooked food than I would like, but I’m not fussing with her about that. Just getting her on The Hallelujah Diet has been a blessing in itself.
When she started The Hallelujah Diet four days ago she was the picture of death, just lying in her bed with little desire to live. The only detox she has experienced thus far is some loose bowels. Now, after just four days since the diet change Mom has her color back, is out of the bed and optimistic about living, though the doctors had given her no hope of living. I am almost shocked at the rapid turnaround.
Please pray that the Lord will continue to provide for me what I need to help her out with time and costs. Fortunately I already had my Green Star juicer and my being on The Hallelujah Diet all these years has helped tremendously.
Thanks Hallelujah Acres for all that you do to help get this lifesaving information out to the community and at no cost for that information. Juicing for mom and all the rest has consumed quite a bit of my time and money but she is my Mom and I love her. I want to see her well and feel that The Hallelujah Diet is the only course that gives her any chance to live.”
Todd
“My husband and I watched the Jim Bakker Show when Dr. T. Colin Campbell was on and later when Jim Bakker featured Hallelujah Acres and The Hallelujah Diet. After watching the shows both my husband and I adopted the Hallelujah Diet.
My husband has already lost 42 pounds and is feeling very good. Everything we had heard and read about your BarleyMax product we have found to be true.
One interesting result of my husband adopting The Hallelujah Diet and Lifestyle is that it has changed his life. Why, he even reads his Bible more often now and is trying to witness to others about Jesus as well as the diet. My husband is also a much happier person now that he has changed his diet.”

It’s 2011 – Time To Try Something New!
Dec 27th
On January 1, 2011 we all will begin a “NEW” Year. In the book of Revelation, it talks about a coming day when Jesus will proclaim: “Behold, I make all things NEW.” (Revelation 21:5)
As we begin this New Year, I want to challenge each of us to consider some “new” things that could be helpful to both our physical and spiritual well-being.
The Bible often cautions us with regards to the choices before us. For instance the apostle John admonishes us in the Bible, in 1 John 4:1…
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but TRY the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
I WAS RAISED ON RELIGION
As a boy, not by my choice, I was raised on religion. Mother and Dad sent me to, what I later learned was not a Bible believing church, but rather a very liberal church that proclaimed a social gospel rather than the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In that church I attended Sunday School faithfully, even earned perfect attendance pins.
I was baptized and became a member of that church. This church had two pulpits with a cross and candles separating the two pulpits. In one pulpit the pastor read from the Bible (usually a Psalm) and from the second pulpit, leaving the Bible behind in the first pulpit, he preached his sermon (usually on social issues).
Sadly, I did not have enough knowledge of the Bible and its teachings at that time to know enough to “TRY the spirits whether they are of God.” As I look back on that childhood experience, I realize that a “false prophet” was in the pulpit and pastor of the church.
THEN I TRIED SOMETHING “NEW”
In the spring of 1957, while working in New York City, I learned not only that Billy Graham was in town, but that tens of thousands were flocking to hear him nightly in Madison Square Garden.
Curiosity got the best of me. On May 29, 1957 I decided to find out what all the commotion was about. That night I heard Billy Graham proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The “Gospel of Jesus Christ” tells of His death, burial, and resurrection. (I Corinthians 15:1-4)
As I listened to Billy Graham speak, I realized I was a sinner (Romans 3:23), and that my religious experiences in that church in which I had been raised were not sufficient to take away my sins and make me fit for heaven (Isaiah 64:6). That was something only Jesus could do (Romans 10:9-10).
When Billy Graham gave the invitation to receive Jesus as Saviour (John 1:12), I was one of the hundreds that went forward, and there kneeling on a concrete floor beside a steel folding chair, I asked Jesus to come into my heart, forgive me for my sin, and receive me as a son. (Romans 10:13)
Jesus says in Revelation 3:20:
“Behold, I stand at the [heart's] door and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” (See also I John 5:11-13)
I’m so glad that over 50 years ago, in spite of all my previous religious indoctrination, I was willing to try something “new.”
I WAS RAISED ON THE STANDARD AMERICAN DIET (SAD)
I was raised (again, not by choice) eating things that were not in my health’s best interest. I was raised on the Standard American Diet (SAD), a diet of meat and dairy at most every meal, lots of sugary desserts, and almost everything I ate was cooked.
Shortly after graduating from High School in 1952, Uncle Sam sent me greetings that my services were required in the U.S. Army to go fight in the Korean War. Having joined the Naval Reserve in High School, I applied for active duty in the U. S. Navy.
After boot camp I served on a ship for several years. On that ship, once again without any input from me or knowledge of what was healthy for me to eat, I was served and ate the same SAD diet I had been raised on.
After an honorable discharge from the U. S. Navy in July 1955 I married and guess what I ate? Yes, it was the same SAD diet I had been raised on and eaten during my upbringing and Navy days. As a result, physical problems that began to manifest as a child continued to manifest with increasing frequency and intensity.
Pimple outbreaks became more intense and frequent, tooth decay resulted in my spending ever increasing hours in dentist chairs, eyesight deteriorated to the extent I required glasses, hypoglycemia manifested, elevated blood pressure surfaced, and the final blow – in late 1975 was told I had colon cancer.
Not wanting to go the traditional medical route my mother had gone for her colon cancer diagnosis before me, I went looking for an alternative. Why? Because Mother’s experience going the medical route was disastrous and led to an early death!
At mother’s death, I was convinced she hadn’t died as a result of the cancer, but rather as a result of the modalities doctors had used in treating her cancer.
THEN I TRIED SOMETHING “NEW”
Rather than go the medical route, I turned to an Evangelist in Texas named Lester Roloff. He discouraged me from going the medical route and encouraged me to change what I ate.
Yes, he said that if I wanted to get well I needed to stop eating the diet of meat and dairy that had caused my cancer. I had to stop eating that sugar that had destroyed my immune system. I needed to eat the raw garden foods God told Adam to eat in Genesis 1:29 and drink lots of freshly extracted vegetable juices.
Because I was willing to try something “new” my rectal bleeding soon stopped. Within a year, my baseball sized tumor in my colon started to shrink and then disappear — I was well!
Friends, because I was willing to try something new 36 years ago, I am still alive and well, just three years shy of my 80th birthday.
ARE YOU WILLING TO TRY SOMETHING “NEW”?
In both the spiritual and physical realms, there are false prophets trying to lead us in directions contrary to the direction God would have us to go — directions contrary to our best interests. When someone listens to that false prophet they can be led away from both God and health.
How can we know whether a spirit is of God? We can “try the spirit”:
“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this WORD [the Bible], it is because there is no light in them.” (Isaiah 8:20)
“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy WORD is truth.” (John 17:17) Jesus said: “And ye shall know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall make you free.” (John 8:32)
Friends, there are many voices beckoning us to TRY various things. There are many directions we can travel in both the spiritual and physical realms that are destructive.
Many people have gotten into trouble by trying something “new,” something they should never have tried in the first place. For instance, that first cigarette… first drink of alcohol… first lie… first theft… first time being unfaithful to a spouse.
As we look back over our lives, most of us can relate. How much better would our lives have been had we not gone in a direction we shouldn’t have?
Though God gave Adam and Eve a 100% raw, plant-based diet in Genesis 1:29, it didn’t take long for the devil to entice Eve to try something “new” (Genesis 3:1-6). She yielded to the temptation of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, then gave some to Adam. We all know the result – sin entered the world.
“Wherefore, as by one man [Adam] sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned…For as by one man’s [Adam’s] disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one [Jesus] shall many be made righteous…That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 5:12, 19, 21)
OUR ENEMY IS STILL TRYING TO GET US TO TRY SOMETHING “NEW”
Today, our enemy is still trying to get us to try something “NEW” that is detrimental to our health – cigarettes, alcohol, soda pop, candy, sugar desserts, cooked animal flesh and dairy, etc.
What has been the result? Sickness abounds! Most of the prayer requests in our churches are for sickness, while the cost of treating all this sickness is bankrupting not only our own pocketbooks, but our vary nation.
Are you my dear friend willing to try something “NEW” that is good for you? If you are not on The Hallelujah Diet — a diet and lifestyle based on the one God gave Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden some 6,000 years ago — may I encourage you do so. Your health, length of life, and years of service to Jesus may depend on it.
And if you have only religion and not Jesus, may you today accept Him as your personal Lord and Saviour!
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.” (See Romans 10:9-13)
With Jesus in our hearts and a body fit for the Master’s use, you are in an exciting position as we enter the “NEW” YEAR 2011!
Lives Changed From Africa to Virginia
Nov 30th
Every week I receive letters from subscribers to the Hallelujah Health Tip. I find so many of them inspirational, especially those that tell how The Hallelujah Diet has improved someone’s health. So please keep those letters coming, as they greatly encourage and inspire me as well as the others who read them.
“Our Rev. Koyejo passed your book ‘God’s Way to Ultimate Health’ to me just last week and I can’t stop reading it. After reading the book I quickly adopted The Hallelujah Diet. Your book…. should be propagated all over the world. Please extend your seminars to Africa (Nigeria) and to the uttermost parts of the world.
“I seize the opportunity to thank you and congratulate you on this masterpiece of literature which has saved the lives of thousands of God’s people.”
Dominic A., Lagos, Nigeria
“Praise and thanks to our Creator for His grace. I had the privilege to get hold of your book ‘God’s Way to Ultimate Health.’ What a truth! Unfortunately I grew up in a home where I was given cooked food and meat to eat every day. I am now 69 years old. Due to the meat I have consumed all my life, arthritis has claimed my hands.
“Your book was an eye-opener to me and I can only praise our Savior for bringing these precious truths to my knowledge. I have been a born-again believer since I was 11. Our Lord has a high calling for me, but all the time it felt like something was missing – until now, because now I can give sick people real hope for this life and even more important, hope for the next life through Jesus Christ.
“When I see all the pain and agony people are suffering here in Africa, I can see in your country there is an awakening as to the cause of physical problems and how to make people well through good nutrition and without drugs. I am praying that this information will grow worldwide.
“I want to be a blessing to the people here in my country who are killing themselves with what they are placing on their forks. It would be such a blessing for me to bless others by sharing with them ‘God’s Way to Ultimate Health.”
Hannes P., Gootfontien, Namibia, Africa
“I want to share with you what I believe is good news. My husband is 53 years old and was diagnosed with stage 4 rectal cancer two years ago. Initially we did some low dose chemo and radiation treatments in preparation to remove a rectal tumor.
“While recovering from the chemo and radiation and before the surgery, we read your book ‘God’s Way to Ultimate Health.’ We prayed about it and were convinced that we should stop medical treatments and that The Hallelujah Diet was the way to go. My husband refused further treatments and had the port removed from his chest.
“My husband did not follow the diet very well for the first year. When scanned one year after refusing treatments, we learned that the cancer had spread to his lungs. This motivated my husband to go faithfully on The Hallelujah Diet. He has now been on The Hallelujah Recovery Diet about 15 months.
“We learned this week the cancer has spread into the bone. I asked the doctor if my husband’s cancer had grown as expected, or faster or slower than expected. He said that for someone with metastatic cancer, the kind my husband has, it has grown remarkably slower than expected.
“That greatly encouraged us because we were beginning to think that his cancer was just too far gone for nutrition to work. Since attending the Women’s Retreat there at Hallelujah Acres in October, I learned about green smoothie. We have added two or three green smoothies to The Hallelujah Recovery Diet. We now have renewed hope for the healing of this cancer – at least keeping it at bay. The Hallelujah Diet has significantly reduced the progression of the cancer.
“I know that the diet has allowed my husband to maintain a good quality of life over what he would have had if he had accepted the chemotherapy. One of the greatest risks with chemotherapy is that it does so much damage to the immune system … resulting in death. This has happened to many [people], including folks we’ve know that were declared ‘cancer free’ just before dying from the infection picked up in the hospital.
“My husband is the pastor of a small church here in Virginia. In spite of the cancer, he is still able to preach every Sunday morning and evening service as well as the mid-week service. We have two teenagers still at home and a grandson. We are so thankful to God for you Dr. Malkmus and Hallelujah Acres and for all the research and testimonies and encouragement you share.
“By the way, I have also been on The Hallelujah Diet and have lost 35 pounds and my health is now wonderful. I walk 3 miles 3 to 4 times and week and praise God every step of the way.”
Debbie S., Virginia
