Phil Brink writes from Ohio: "I adopted the Hallelujah Diet eight weeks ago after my doctor told me I had to take medication for my high cholesterol, which was 249 with an HDL of 166. I had my blood work redone this week and my total cholesterol had dropped to 193, and my HDL was down to 117. My doctor was impressed with my numbers and wanted to know what I had done. . . . May God continue to bless your ministry. I believe you are preaching TRUTH!

Odie Langley, Jr. writes: "Since attending your 'How to Eliminate Sickness' seminar in Rocky Mount, NC on August 11, 1999, I have been on the Hallelujah Diet. Just last week I had a physical and the results were fantastic. I have lost fifteen pounds in six weeks, my blood pressure was perfect, and my cholesterol had dropped from 300 to 133. My doctor was beaming and wants me to keep on keeping on. Thanks for what you are doing to help so many of us live better."

Doug Woolsey, a Back to the Garden Health Minister who lives in Florida: "Dear Dr. Malkmus: Praise the Lord for His greatness. We sure have a great God and when we eat God's way He sure blesses us. My wife and I started on the Hallelujah Way around the first of April 2000. Then the Lord led us to attend Health Ministers training in July.

"I have had an enlarged heart since 1995 and have been taking the full regimen of heart medicines ever since then. I will list the medicines and the dosages I have been taking each day: Lipitor--20 mg; Slo-Niacin--2000 mg; K-Dur--60 mg; Altace--20 mg; Meltoprolol--100 mg; Furosemide--160 mg; aspirin--750 mg. During 1995 and 1996 I was also on Coumadin, but in 1997 my cardiologist changed that to two 325 mg aspirin.

"When I had my cholesterol blood work done in June it turned out good with everything being in the right range. At that time I had been on the Hallelujah Diet for only about two months. However, even with these good reports my cardiologist wouldn't hear of it when I told him I wanted to get off of some of my medicines.

"Then we came to Health Ministers training in July, and when we returned home I felt that I needed to get off some of these medicines and I proceeded to cut all of my medicines in half. This was about the first of August.

"The first week in September I had more blood work done and my cholesterol levels were very good: Total cholesterol was 121; HDL--36; LDL--63; triglycerides--111; HDL/total cholesterol ratio--3.4. And I had lost a total of 48 pounds in the five months since going on the Hallelujah Diet.

"On September 27th my cardiologist gave his permission for me to cut all my medicine dosages to 1/4th and after a few days switch to every other day until I was completely off all drugs--which will probably be in a couple of weeks. Praise the Lord!

"This will mean that in approximately six months from the time I started on the Hallelujah Diet I will be off all heart medicines, and with my cardiologist's blessing--even though he didn't want to hear of it in June.

"We thank the Lord every day for you and Rhonda and we thank the Lord for leading us to share this health message with the people we come in contact with. The Lord is so good!"

Mike and Marcia DeVeirman: "Thanks for coming to Rockford, Illinois this past November. My wife and I were helping at the book table, and heard so many good and positive comments about you, the seminar, and its content. It all makes such good sense, and the diet plan is 'lifesaving.' Marcia and I started the Hallelujah Diet in 1998, and so many people have noticed our weight loss. Even my own doctor asked for information about the Hallelujah Diet, because since going on it I no longer need any medicine for high blood pressure or high cholesterol problems. The results from my doctor's tests have proven that the Hallelujah Diet plan works better than prescription drugs. Thank you for your message and your tenacity to get the message out to others."
