just heard of this diet.......lol

SLLRunner

It is called the hallelujah diet.......it sounds like the starve yourself diet to me.....lol i laughed when i read this

http://www.hacres.com/hallelujah-diet/foods-to-avoid

and supposedly if you eat like this it cures everything

That's clean eating. They say it right here: http://www.hacres.com/hallelujah-diet/explanation

Looks like they have products and recipes too.

A friend eats "clean" because her husband had a heart attack and the doctor put him on a clean eating diet, and it's just easier for her to follow along. She loves it.

I wouldn't do it because I don't think any foods are good or bad, unless the doctor told me I had to for some health reason.

They lost me at no caffeine or alcohol!

Right in the first section (beverages) no coffee would be a deal breaker for me.

What's left to eat? Of course you'll lose weight if you don't eat anything, ever.

hahahahaah

ThineOwnselfBTrue

it's a vegan diet...I'm all for eating better, but I fall asleep at work without my coffee and I am a meat eater...

I firmly believe that if your diet needs a website to explain its conditions and/or benefits, you probably shouldn't be following it.

Wow awesome diet!! And for only $495, you to can become a "Health Minister" so you become "an expert on The Hallelujah Diet and Hallelujah Acres nutritional products so you can teach your family, friends, and community about healthy living and how to live vibrant lives!"

Praise the Lord and Hallelujah is right!!

:sick:

What in the ***?! This is just a clever way to promote the cotton ball diet, cause that's all that's left to eat after reading the "Do not eat this" list.

Also, according to this "diet", I should be dead by now. :laugh:

Don't forget to but their special product: BarleyMax! and eat it for every meal.... :grumble:

I do have to add: I'm not a fan of extremely restictive diets, but if a person is very overweight and switched from say, an all fast-food, high calorie diet to a mostly raw vegan diet, they probably would see some pretty rapid weight loss and some health benefits...

True, but they'd also see rapid weight loss just by eating a more "normal" diet, calorie wise at least.

Well if you quit drinking alcohol and have hepatitis C of course your numbers will go down alcohol only intensifies Hep C ask any doctor or use the internet.

the body needs B-12 and if you ate like this you would need to take a supplement.

this is from a webpage that talks about this diet

http://www.quackwatch.org/11Ind/malkmus.html

"The Bottom Line

Although low-fat, high-fiber diets can be healthful, the Hallelujah Diet is unbalanced and can lead to serious deficiencies. The overall program is expensive because the recommended supplements cost over $2,000 a year. Reverend Malkmus' sales pitch includes beliefs that are historically and nutritionally senseless, as well as health claims for which he lacks appropriate substantiation. Using his diet instead of appropriate medical care is very foolish."
