Are you an overweight Christian? If so, don’t despair, I’m pretty sure you’re not alone. All that extra weight that you carry with you prevents you from doing all you can, and you need to shed those extra pounds to continue living your life according to God’s plan. Therefore, I would like to recommend a very good diet book to you, one that understands the Christian soul and helps the reader overcome the hard work of losing weight. The name of the book is:
“The Maker’s Diet: The 40-Day Health Experience That Will Change Your Life Forever”, by Jordan S. Rubin NMD, PhD., Siloam Publishers, Lake Mary Florida, 2004, 304 pages, ISBN: 0-88419-948 -7.
This book is like a series of sermons, with quotes from Scripture, mostly from the King James Version of the Bible. This is a true step-by-step guide perfect for the Christian soul, allowing someone who has accepted Jesus Christ as their savior to help them overcome the difficult problems of changing eating habits and behaviors, allowing them to also find external strength when nothing else. It has worked.
Since the author is not only a registered nutritionist but also a doctor with a Ph.D., he also examines why so many fast diets are unhealthy and lead to illness due to lack of intake of the proper nutrients while the food supply is cut off. The book begins by discussing stimulating the immune system as a first and most important step, also to eliminate inflammation of the abdomen. That must happen first, to see where it meets the fat cells.
It then shields the reader from issues like anorexia so everyone realizes the reality between proper weight, body fat, and height – it’s important and explains why. In this book he shows that no diet will be successful without exercise, as it tells the reader that God had designed the body from the beginning with the proverbial Adam and Eve. By improving physical performance, increasing exercise energy, and looking better, you help the reader find God and move to the next step.
That would be eating right, healthy, and reducing stress by finding God and taking Him deeper into your heart, body, mind, and soul. What many do not understand is the importance of digestion, which is why he also devotes many pages to explaining all that. Jordan, the author, is quite famous for his books and television appearances on diet topics, practically a television evangelist in that sense. It has also been published in numerous medical nutrition journals. Much of your research is explained in this book, in very easy and straightforward terms.
This book was very good and I would recommend it to any of my Christian friends, in fact I am currently thinking of someone I could give it to. Consider all of this and think about it.
