Pure eating reduces illness

What the Bible tells us about food purity.

Cancer and autoimmune diseases are on the rise. Contaminants in our food contribute to this rise. See what the Bible says about body purity.

Throughout the Bible, we are told that our human bodies are the living breathing temples of God. Spirit resides in the physical body, and it is to be treated with respect, and reverence. One example is 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."

Our world is not the same as it was two thousand years ago. Today's man made, genetically engineered and overly processed food is nothing like the food of two thousand years ago. Our water has been contaminated by pollution and additives determined by others to be harmless. Unless you grow your own fruits and vegetables and raise your own animals for meat and milk, the food you eat contains chemicals and hormones unintended by Spirit for ingestion.

Over two thousand years of farming has depleted the soil in many places and so the foods we grow don't always have the nutrients Spirit designed out bodies to thrive on. Add to that genetic engineering and cloning, and food our bodies are simply not getting the support intended by Spirit. This lack of wholesomeness is evidenced by the increase of disease throughout the world.

In the United States, contaminate caused illnesses and conditions are on the rise. Cancer, mental retardation, autism, mental illness and auto-immune conditions are rampant.

Research shows that many of these conditions can be improved and even prevented by eliminating contaminants from our food and water. Children with autism, mental illness and some forms of mental retardation have been improved by avoiding mercury, MSG, aspartame, gluten,fluoride, and certain oils.

Asthma often responds to the avoidance of food additives, certain food groups, and the removal of toxins from the person's environment.

Multiple Sclerosis and ALS are often greatly improved by removing mercury fillings, avoiding meats and dairy from animals injected with hormones or routine antibiotics, and other steps to pure eating.

These illnesses did not exist two thousand years ago. Manufactures add chemicals to our food in order to reduce manufacturing costs and make a larger profit. These chemicals are causing lasting and progressive harm to our bodies.

By avoiding food additives, we can help keep our bodies pure and stave off illness.
