Just finished reading The Makers Diet. I think I have every alternative health book ever written that claims to improve health. But, Ill have to say, this is the first one to really make sense. And Ive studied alternative medicine just on my own for about 18 years. If you will notice, Jordan has a lot of regular foods on his diet...in fact, MOST of them are every day foods...the difference is...THERE ARE NO ADDITIVES!!!!! What did our grandparents and great grandparents eat in their day? They ate a lot of what we eat NOW...except, they GREW THEIR OWN vegetables, and fruit, and raised their own chickens. And when they wanted MEAT...which, by the way, was probably almost every day...they just went out in the country side and brought home a rabbit, or deer, or turkey, and they processed their own beef and pork. I am head over heels in love with the message in The Makers Diet...and I think if a person followed it to the letter, they would see profound improvement in their health in no time at all. And while I think the supplements he recommends are probably some of the best you can find anywhere, I dont think...unless youre battling a serious or heaven forbid...terminal illness, that you really "have" to take them to see improvement. About 3 years ago, the Hallelujah Diet was the rage in our area. I bought all the books and videos, because I knew 3 people who had made drastic improvement in their health using that diet. My husband and I (our children are grown) went on the diet..and stayed on it for 3 weeks. We juiced the vegetables, left off the sugar, quit meat...and I can tell you for a fact, that after about 1 1/2 weeks...we felt so good and energetic...our thinking was so CLEAR..we could NOT believe it...but then we started "wanting" meat...and "wanting" ice cream...and our health was fairly good...so we thought..."Oh, why fool with this...". But NOW...were getting arthritis, vision could be
better, etc...and were thinking..."Ok, "maybe" diet WILL make a difference." Our ancestors started the day off with bacon and eggs, biscuits and gravy, coffee with sugar...and ended the day with fried chicken, whipped potatoes with real cream and butter and red eye gravy...with flour gravy on the side... corn cut off the cob...and topped with a big dollop of butter.. and covered with salt and pepper...fried okra, green tomatoes, and squash...and then topped it all off with a big apple pie and a bowl of ice cream...AND LIVED TO BE IN THEIR 90S!!!!! BUT...they raised their own chickens...grew their own potatoes, milked their own cow and made their own cream and butter... grew their own corn, okra, tomatoes and squash...picked apples off their own tree..and churned their ice cream. AND YES, that takes TIME...but, oh, what a life...were newly retired...and just now going "back" to that way of life...and I can tell you for a fact...its priceless!!!! I wouldnt trade a day in our garden for a week in the Mall Of America. We all need to learn to slow down and LIVE...THIS IS NOT A DRESS REHEARSAL...life is not about MONEY and STUFF...its about how you feel inside and who you have beside you...Anyone interested in the Makers Diet can also check out the website of Dr. Joseph Mercola....author of Total Health Program...I think his site is www.mercola.com TONS of good information on his website...there is also a Makers Diet fan club...and The Makers Diet website is www.makersdiet.com If youre sick and tired of being sick and tired....The Makers Diet is your answer....its all up to YOU !!!!
