Rita's Story

We heard Dr. Fuhrman speak at Hallelujah Acres Health Minister's Reunion and have followed his teaching ever since. I started a plant based lifestyle in November 1997 and my husband in January1998. A friend that had been trained through Hallelujah Acres told us about it.  My husband and I were so intrigued with the lifestyle that we took the training to become health ministers.  We had no health issues that we knew of, but decided to do it for preventive reasons.  Both our families had members who died from cancer and we didn't want to suffer with that terrible death.

My husband is 65 years old and in great health and takes no medications.  He retired, but went back to work a part time job.  He even digs doing dishes, builds buildings, mixes cement, he works like a 30 year old.

I am in great health, have been able to keep my weight down and do not take any medications.  Unlike my friends, I went through menopause like a breeze.  I look at them and cannot believe the night sweats, terrible mood swings and depression that they went through.  I thank God that I knew about living a plant based diet and attribute the easy menopause to it.  To me, that was worth its weight in gold.  Even before I went through menopause, my husband would say that I was never moody or depressed during my monthly cycles, compared to what is the norm for most women.  For a woman to go through her monthly cycles and menopause like it was nothing is a big wonderful testimony.  My mother went through a terrible menopause of depression.  I thank God that I didn't have to go down that road.

Thank you Dr. Fuhrman and God bless you for all that you do to help us live healthy, vigorous and wonderful life!
