If I visit a professional and that person tells me that what I eat will have no effect on my health, I never return to that office. I have experienced too much healing in myself and watched many others heal as well by correcting deficiencies, getting the toxins out, and switching to a nutrient dense, highly digestible diet.

Example: Over fourteen years ago my son had two small patches of eczema on the back of his legs. I took him to the doctor and he was diagnosed with eczema. I asked my doctor at the time if something in his diet could be causing it and he said, “no.” I was given a steroid cream and walked out of the office very disappointed. I couldn’t even imagine putting that cream on my baby so I didn’t. The issue was very minor for several months and then one day he was covered from head to toe. I had been researching, but I knew I had to figure out something quick, or I would need to take him somewhere. I prayed and researched and finally came to the conclusion that he might have a food allergy. I started with eliminating wheat and switched him to rye bread. After a week he completely cleared up. A few months later, we were at a program and dinner. I asked him if he wanted a wheat roll (I still wasn’t completely convinced he had a wheat allergy) and he put it in his hand and then gave it back to me saying he didn’t want it. I watched his hand and arm break out very quickly from just touching it. I then knew that the wheat was causing the eczema. Thankfully since we have found Einkorn (an ancient wheat) and have learned to make sourdough, which is easier to digest, he can have this amazing grain again! Whole wheat is loaded with amazing nutrients, but unless it’s properly prepared, it can be very hard on the digestive system. During that time we were also transitioning our home to a traditional diet and using natural skin care and cleaning products.

This is just one of many healing stories that our family has experienced by changing our diet. I share this to glorify God in that when I seek Him, I often get simple, but not easy solutions (they always take work) that don’t cost that much. I am not in any way suggesting anyone should self-diagnose or not see a doctor. I’m only sharing my own testimony and God’s goodness. Have you healed a health issue with diet change, removing toxins, or correcting deficiencies? We LOVE to hear from you!
