Book Description
Olin Idol acquired an interest in health and nutrition over 30 years ago while serving in the military. At that time he began using a multitude of vitamin and mineral supplements, and distilled water while continuing to eat the typical American Diet. This regime was maintained faithfully until the early 90's when he read a book by Rev. George H. Malkmus entitled "Why Christians Get Sick". The impact of this book on his lifestyle and diet was tremendous -- the dietary supplements were tossed aside as was the Standard American Diet (SAD). He embraced the "Hallelujah Diet" and lifestyle. While he had no major physical problem himself, the little aches and pains associated with aging, life-long sinus problems and headaches, and stomach problems simply disappeared. Olin had accepted Christ as his personal Saviour at the age of 14. After his discharge from the military in 1972, he attended college where he graduated with a degree in Religion with the intent of entering the ministry. Just prior to enrolling in seminary a chain of events in his personal life seemed to close the door to a full time ministry. While taking advantage of various opportunities to preach and teach it wasn't until after attending the Hallelujah Acres' Health Ministers training program that he developed his own health ministry. He began teaching others the basic essential of the "Hallelujah Diet" and lifestyle while at the same time continuing his personal studies in nutrition. Ultimately he earned his N.D. degree and subsequently attained Certification as a Nutritional Consultant (C.N.C.) by The American Association of Nutritional Consultants.
