For good
health and long life, God, in
the Person of Master Fard
Muhammad, taught me that we
should eat one meal a day and it
should be 24 hours from the last
meal. If we eat one meal once
every day at four o-clock or six
o-clock (whatever is the best
hour for your meal), then wait
until that hour comes again
before eating again.
TRY EATING one meal a day for
yourself and you will tell me
you feel much better than you
did eating three times a day. A
lot of little complaints or
ailments will disappear.
You do not have to eat every
menu that is prescribed by this
civilization. If you do, you
will be dead -- and soon. This
civilization is rapidly turning
back to raw food and raw juices,
but our God and Saviour Allah
(God), in the Person of Master
Fard Muhammad, taught me to cook
our food and most of the doctors
agree that cooked food is
better.
THERE ARE many doctors who
will not agree with you on
drinking a lot of raw juices --
not even a lot of raw grape
juice, orange juice, or any kind
of fresh juice. It is too much
for our stomachs. The vitamins
in it are good for us but there
are other enemies in raw
vegetables and fruit juices from
the land where they were grown
and from the insects that fed
upon them.
When we eat raw vegetables as
they come up from the earth and
other roots and salads which are
raw, we are not doing our
stomachs good. Our stomachs were
not made to digest these foods
in their first raw stages.
Therefore, I do not agree with
anyone on eating too much raw
food or drinking too much raw
juice.
A LITTLE raw salad is good
for us, if eaten along with
cooked food -- even if we eat it
daily -- but do not make meals
of such raw salad.
We cannot follow the white
man in his eating habits,
because his habits are from the
days of savagery in the hills
and caves of Europe, where he
ate all his food raw, because he
did not have the knowledge of
the use of fire to cook his
food, as he does today. EAT TO
LIVE AND NOT TO DIE.
