Health Gospel according to Robert Cohen

12 If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the LORD your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your ancestors. 13 He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers. He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land—your grain, new wine and ol­ive oil—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you. 14 You will be blessed more than any other people; none of your men or women will be childless, nor will any of your livestock be without young. 15 The LORD will keep you free from every disease. He will not inflict on you the horrible diseases you knew in Egypt, but he will inflict them on all who hate you. Deuter­onomy 7: 15 Health is one the most important facet of our lives. Wealth will not buy us good health. It will not buy us good appetite, or good natural sleep not induced by drugs, cannot buy us tickets to heaven, and more. But wealth can help us buy good food not loaded with fat, cholester­ol, or mad cow disease. God wants all people to be healthy and strong, but we sometimes tend to eat what we want not what we need. The Lord wants everyone to be healthy as said in 3 John 2; to be healthy physically as well as spiritually. Rob­ert Cohen, The NOTMILK MAN gives us some good advice when it comes to health.

Here they are.
“Seven Steps to Re­claiming Your Health
You are what you eat. Your stomach was designed to break food proteins down into the basic building blocks of life, amino acids. The acid in your stomach normally ac­complishes that task quite efficient­ly. If you eat hard-to-digest proteins, the task will take longer than if you eat easy-to-digest proteins.

Hummus will be digested in less than an hour. A sirloin steak might take five hours. Should you neutralize the acid in your stom­ach and take away your body’s abil­ity to digest food properly, that food will ferment and putrefy in your stomach for many hours. You will experience pain and discom­fort, and substances normally di­gested might exert powerful effects on your system. These substances include fat, cholesterol, hormones, antibiotics and pesticides.
The seven steps can be one large jump or seven separate chapters in your life. Each journey begins with one step and, in each case, the first step is the most important.

STEP ONE
Eliminate all milk and dairy products. Each sip of milk contains powerful growth hormones and proteins that cause powerful effects on your body. Milk buffers gastric acidity and interferes with digestion. Step one should begin by abstain­ing from all milk and dairy products for just six .days. On day seven, eat yogurt, have pizza for lunch, cheese with dinner and ice cream for des­sert. Pay careful attention to how you feel during the first six days of this experiment. Mucus, phlegm, digestion, & sleep patterns.
On the seventh day you will light the fuse to an internal time bomb. It might take one hour and the ef­fects might take twelve hours. You will notice a distinct change in your bowel movements about fif­teen hours later. That unpleasant change can be blamed on casein, a milk protein. Eighty percent of all milk protein is casein, the same glue used to adhere a label to a bottle of beer. This glue is what causes histamines, then mucus. It is the reason most Americans do not have normal bowel movements. Recognize the changes in your body and decide if this is the way you wish to spend the remainder of your life.
STEP TWO
Eliminate poul­try. Chickens naturally mature in six months, not four weeks which is the age that they are often processed for human consumption. Artificial light cycles and diets rich in growth hor­mones produce unhealthy animals. Their feeds include excrement and body parts from their siblings.
STEP THREE
Eliminate sea­food. Insecticides and toxic chemi­cals run off into the water. We eat fish that are on the top of their respective food chain. Their flesh contains concentrated amounts of pesticides and dioxins.
STEP FOUR
Eliminate pork and beef. As with all animals, the tox­ins they eat from vegetables treated with 50 times greater herbicides and pesticides become concentrated in their flesh. By eating their bodies, we ingest dangerous chemicals and powerful hormones.
STEP FIVE
Make your diet one consisting of foods from the FOUR MAJOR FOOD GROUPS. Fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains. Read books about your new diet. Frances Ford Lappe’s DIET FOR A NEW PLANET teaches us that there is an incredible variety to the 40 different fruits and 40 differ­ent vegetables commonly available. Combine the textures and tastes of­fered by 20 different beans and 20 grains and you produce a cuisine that is infinitely more interesting and appealing than the typical American diet (which consists of three veg­etables: catsup, pickles and potato chips).
STEP SIX
Buy organic. It makes a difference. The difference in price cannot be measured against the health of you and your loved ones. DDT is legal in Mexico, and much of your typical supermarket produce comes from South of the American border. If you eat a fruit or veggie grown in another coun­try, chances are that the crate was sprayed with toxic pesticides before being shipped to America. Organic bananas are a joke and a deception. APHIS requires that all bananas be sprayed to prevent bugs that may damage our crops. An example of one bug kept out of America is that fruit fly from the Mediterranean. All foreign crates are sprayed be­fore you eat their contents.
STEP SEVEN
After step seven, you and your body have earned a rest. By first giving up milk and dairy products you began the jour­ney to a new body and spirit. By giving up the consumption of all foods with faces and mothers, you have eased the job of digestion and begun the process of cleans­ing your body. You have lifted an internal “fog”, placed in your body organs by nature’s tenacious glue, casein. As the mucus leaves, your spiritual awareness increases. You will need less sleep as a result of placing less strain on your diges­tive system. It is time for an occa­sional rest, and that includes fast­ing. Now is the time to learn and experiment with foods. It is also the time to explore your body and to recognize that food is fuel, and in order to maintain good health, you should supply your internal engine with clean food.”

May God bless us all and keep us healthier when we follow those seven steps to good health. Re­member the eight good doctors of health?
