In today’s fast-paced world, health is often sacrificed for convenience. Processed foods, artificial ingredients, and unhealthy eating habits have led to a rise in obesity, chronic disease, and declining overall wellness. But what if the key to restoring our nation’s health has been in the Bible all along? A Bible-based diet—rooted in God’s wisdom—offers a natural, effective, and spiritually fulfilling way to reclaim our health and make America healthy (MAHA) again.
God’s Design for Healthy Living
From the very beginning, God provided nutrient-rich, whole foods for humanity. In Genesis 1:29, He says: “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.” This verse highlights the importance of plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds—foods known for their health benefits today.
Later, in Leviticus 11, God gives clear guidelines on clean and unclean animals, emphasizing healthy, natural sources of protein. These dietary principles, which align with modern nutritional science, can help reduce inflammation, promote heart health, and boost longevity.
The Problems with Modern Diets
America’s diet has strayed far from biblical principles. Processed foods, excessive sugars, and artificial additives have led to epidemics of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. This unhealthy shift affects physical health and diminishes energy, mental clarity, and overall well-being. Returning to biblically inspired eating can reverse this trend and restore vitality to individuals, families, and communities. By focusing on natural, God-given foods, we can fuel our bodies with the nutrients they were designed to thrive on.
Did you know that food today is less nutritious than it used to be? Several studies have documented a decline in the nutrient content of fruits and vegetables over the past several decades. Research indicates that the average vegetable in today's supermarkets contains 5% to 40% less mineral content than those from over 50 years ago. Additionally, six out of the 13 most important nutrients in fruits and vegetables have declined substantially during this time. A study by Professor Donald Davis and his team at the University of Texas at Austin analyzed USDA nutritional data from 1950 and 1999 for 43 different fruits and vegetables. They found consistent declines in protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, riboflavin (vitamin B2), and vitamin C over this period.
With this landscape, it's more important than ever to get the necessary nutrients by eating whole foods as much as possible and taking supplements to fill the nutritional gaps in your diet.
