⭐️In our journey towards better health, we must become intentional about what we choose to eat. It’s crucial to acknowledge the reality that we are surrounded by toxins—whether it's the air we breathe, the water we drink, the chemicals that permeate our skin and the foods we eat. To combat these issues, we need to take a proactive approach by selecting nourishing solutions, such as adopting a daily fasting routine. Starting with 12-hour fasts and gradually moving to one meal a day can be beneficial, provided it is done thoughtfully and safely. We should strive to consume the foods that Allah (God) intended for us, which have nourished humanity since creation.

⭐️As a vegetarian for over three years, I never imagined I could give up my beloved Jamaican curry chicken marinated in natural spices, served with a plate of rice and steamed cabbage. That dish was a true indulgence for me, yet I surprisingly gave up chicken before I stopped eating fish—an unexpected turn in my life. This demonstrates the power of the mind and what we are capable of accomplishing with our thoughts.

Now, let’s focus on plating a meal with mindfulness and intention.

⭐️Main Dish: Navy Bean or Lentil Soup
As a vegetarian, my primary source of protein comes from hearty dishes like navy bean or lentil soup. This foundation simplifies meals and helps me navigate the challenges of daily life without the stress of meal planning.

✨Nutritional Benefits of Navy Beans:
Navy beans are packed with essential nutrients, including:

✨Protein:Important for muscle repair and growth.

✨Fiber:Supports digestive health and helps maintain a healthy weight.

✨Iron:Vital for energy production and oxygen transport in the blood.

✨Folate:Crucial for cell function and tissue growth.

✨Magnesium:Assists in muscle function and energy production.

For meat eaters, although it’s not necessary, consider adding an extra protein such as chicken or fish as a side, being mindful to refrain from eating pork which is a flesh that’s detrimental to health.

⭐️Choose Your Vegetables:
For a nutritious and vibrant meal, incorporate 1 or 2 non-starchy vegetables. I particularly love cabbage for its gut health benefits.

⭐️Benefits of Cabbage:

✨Rich in Vitamins:A great source of Vitamin K, C, and B6.

✨Supports Digestive Health:Contains fiber and gut-friendly compounds.

✨Antioxidant Properties:Helps reduce inflammation and protect against chronic diseases.

You may also select another non-starchy vegetable such as beets or green beans or a starchy vegetable such as winter squash to complement your meal.

⭐️Fruits:
Add some fresh berries like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries, which are high in antioxidants, or enjoy a simple apple for a refreshing sweetness.

⭐️Whole Wheat Bread:
Consider including a slice or two of whole wheat bread—preferably homemade. If purchasing, choose organic options with minimal, recognizable ingredients.

⭐️Rice:
If you’d like to include rice, opt for a cup of washed, rinsed, and toasted rice, then cooked. This process decreases the spike in blood sugar once it’s consumed.Just remember to remove the starchy vegetable and whole wheat bread from your meal if you choose to include it. Remember, a small portion of rice will suffice.

⭐️Beverages:
For hydration, consider the following options:
✨Raw Cow's Milk:Gently scalded to remove impurities, it provides beneficial nutrients like calcium, vitamin D, and healthy fats that support bone health and overall well-being.

✨Water:Since our bodies are made up of approximately 60% water, it’s essential to replenish fluids lost through urination and sweat. Staying hydrated is key to maintaining energy and bodily functions.

❤️By thoughtfully selecting each component of our meals, we not only nourish our bodies but also cultivate a greater appreciation for the food we consume. Remember, intentional eating is more than just a diet—it's a lifestyle choice that promotes health and well-being.

⭐️In a world where many wake up burdened by chronic pain, fatigue, headaches, high blood pressure, and elevated blood sugar levels, it's easy to accept these discomforts as the norm. Unfortunately, this perceived "normal" state of health is not a mere coincidence but rather the outcome of a systematic orchestration that compromises our wellbeing. Each day, we find ourselves grappling with frequent illnesses—be it the common cold, flu, or COVID-19—without understanding the deeper issues at play.

⭐️The air we breathe is tainted, the water we drink has been poisoned, and the foods we consume are often scientifically modified. This is not how Allah intended us to live in His universe. He created everything we need to thrive in its purest state. However, for the past 6,000 years, humanity has strayed from this divine intention, often based on teachings that prioritize profit over health and wellbeing. As articulated by The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, a new way of living has been imposed upon us, leading to widespread chaos and destruction of our planet and our health.

⭐️Given that our health has been compromised, we must ask: what can we do to reclaim it? In John 10:10, it is written, “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” This verse beckons us to seek a more profound understanding of life, health, and wellness, prompting the question: who came, and when?

⭐️The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches that Allah, in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, appeared in 1930 and imparted knowledge over a span of three years. This knowledge encompassed the secrets of the universe, the foundations of the Black nation, and, importantly, the wisdom necessary to achieve good health and longevity.

❤️❤️In his book "How to Eat to Live," The Honorable Elijah Muhammad reveals vital principles for achieving health:

⭐️Fasting: One Meal a Day⭐️

✨One of the most significant recommendations is the practice of fasting, specifically the discipline of consuming just one meal per day. This practice can yield numerous benefits, including:

✨Improved Digestion: Allowing the body to rest between meals can enhance digestive efficiency.

✨Weight Management: A structured eating schedule can help control caloric intake, supporting weight loss or maintenance.

✨Increased Energy Levels: With reduced meal frequency, the body can allocate more energy to other essential functions, improving overall vigor.

✨Mental Clarity: Fasting can lead to improved focus and cognitive function as the body diverts energy from digestion to brain function.

⭐️Nutritional Guidance

The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad also emphasizes the importance of choosing the right foods and avoiding harmful options. He recommends incorporating the following into our diet:

✨Navy Bean Soup: Rich in protein and fiber, it supports heart health and aids digestion.

✨Pure Milk: A good source of calcium and vitamins that promotes bone health.

✨Whole Wheat Bread: Offers necessary fiber and nutrients for sustained energy levels.

✨Fruits and Vegetables: Essential for providing vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to combat disease.

⭐️Mental Health: Cultivating Good Thoughts

✨Beyond physical nourishment, The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad stresses the importance of mental vitality. Cultivating good thoughts and maintaining a positive mindset can greatly influence overall health. The mind plays a significant role in physical health; positive thinking can lead to healthier choices and a more resilient spirit.

😊The blessings of good health are available to us, but we must be willing to take action. By understanding the systemic challenges we face and implementing the teachings of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad, we can work towards restoring our health and wellbeing. As we reclaim our diets, our thoughts, and ultimately our lives, let us remember that we are not merely surviving; we are meant to live abundantly.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Eat To Live!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

11/18/2025

⭐️We are living in an extraordinary era where Allah has revealed profound truths about Himself, the nature of the devil, the adversities posed by the Black nation, as well as guidance on how to eat to live through the teachings of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad.

⭐️As we continue to uncover the secrets of human anatomy, one area of interest is the gut microbiome. This intricate ecosystem comprises of trillions of microbes, including bacteria, yeast, fungi, and viruses. The microbiome serves as the fertile soil that nourishes the rest of our body. If we fail to maintain an ideal environment within this ecosystem, illness can develop.

⭐️What is Leaky Gut?

Leaky gut syndrome refers to a condition where the intestinal lining becomes compromised, allowing harmful substances to pass through the gut wall into the bloodstream. Think of your digestive tract as a tube that starts at your mouth and ends at your re**um. It is designed to function as a one-way system; however, improper care can disrupt this flow.

⭐️Within our digestive tract resides a vast community of trillions of microbes. If we neglect to nourish this "soil," its contents can leak into other areas of the body, causing havoc, inflammation, and the spread of unwanted chemicals and microbes.

⭐️When we maintain a symbiotic relationship with our gut microbiome, it thrives. However, neglecting its environment could lead these microbes to rebel, potentially migrating to areas of the body where they shouldn't be. They now become a parasite instead of living harmoniously within us. We could find ourselves hosting trillions of adversaries or opponents.

⭐️When this balance is broken, order dissolves, and disarray ensues. Without structure, each microbe may begin to act independently, leading to chaos in our body’s systems.

⭐️For instance, urinary tract infections, often caused by E. coli, illustrate this concept. E. coli typically resides in the intestines, but when conditions in the gut are compromised, it can migrate to the bladder, resulting in infection.

⭐️Could the mistreatment of our gut microbiome contribute to chronic diseases? 🤔The answer is yes, it’s highly plausible. This highlights the importance of intentionally nurturing our gut microbiome and employing strategies to maintain the health of our digestive system and overall body.

⭐️Key Strategies for Gut Health:

✨Daily Fasting: Helps strengthen gut health by giving the digestive system a break.

✨Nutrient-Dense Foods: Incorporate navy beans, fruits, vegetables, and raw, scaled cow's milk for optimal nourishment.

✨Exercise: Stimulates digestive motility, supporting overall gut function.

✨Stress Management: Reduces cortisol levels, subsequently decreasing inflammation throughout the body.

By prioritizing these practices, we can foster a healthier gut microbiome and, in turn, a healthier life overall.

High blood pressure, or hypertension, can often stem from a variety of interconnected factors. Here’s a breakdown of some key contributors:

✨Excessive Weight Gain:

Excess weight, particularly in the form of visceral fat accumulated around organs, can clog blood vessels and increase pressure on arterial walls. It's important to note that individuals can be of smaller stature and still experience high blood pressure due to this hidden internal fat, which forces blood to pump with greater effort and elevates blood pressure levels.

✨Lack of Exercise:

A sedentary lifestyle leads to stiff arterial walls, making it difficult for blood to flow smoothly. Regular physical activity helps keep arteries flexible and blood pressure in check.

✨Poor Nutrition:

Eating unhealthy, low-fiber foods disrupts the microbiome's balance. A healthy microbiome is important for regulating blood pressure.

✨Nutritional Deficiencies:

Deficiencies in essential nutrients, particularly magnesium and vitamin D, can negatively influence blood pressure regulation.

✨Chronic Stress:

Persistent stress leads to chronic inflammation, which can contribute to hypertension.

✨Importance of Nitric Oxide:

Nitric oxide promotes vasodilation, allowing blood vessels to relax and improve blood flow, helping to manage blood pressure effectively. The body naturally releases this with exercise.

⭐️⭐️Actions to Manage High Blood Pressure:

❤️Incorporate Fasting: Consider intermittent fasting or time-restricted eating, which can help reduce calorie intake, support weight loss, and improve metabolic health.

❤️Focus on weight management through a balanced diet and regular exercise. Aim to create a caloric deficit to facilitate weight loss.

❤️Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity per week, which can include walking, cycling, or swimming, along with strength training twice a week.

❤️Incorporate fibrous foods like lentils, navy beans, cabbage, garlic, onions, beets and other vegetables into your diet, while avoiding processed foods high in sugar and unhealthy fats.

❤️Ensure a well-rounded diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats( olive oil, avocados, grass fed butter) and consider speaking with a healthcare provider about potential supplementation for deficiencies.

❤️Implement stress-reduction techniques such as Prayer, gratitude, mindfulness, meditation, deep breathing exercises, and regular physical activity. Allocate time for relaxation and enjoyable hobbies and self-care.

❤️Promote nitric oxide production through dietary sources like beets, leafy greens, and citrus fruits, and enhance its synthesis with regular physical activity.

😎By addressing these causes and implementing these actions, individuals can manage high blood pressure and promote overall cardiovascular health.

🤺 What is a Battle?

A battle is a struggle or fight against challenges or opponents. It can happen in many forms, whether on a battlefield or in our own minds or body. From the moment we are conceived, we are already fighting for life—sperm racing to join the egg, and later, a baby pushing through the birth canal to enter the world. As we grow, we face battles in learning to sit, crawl, stand, and walk. Each step shows that struggle is a normal part of life.

🤺 The Fight Within

While struggles are a part of everyone’s life, the hardest battle is often the one we have with ourselves. This internal fight is crucial for our growth, helping us find parts of ourselves we may not even realize exist. In today’s chaotic world, many people feel lost and unfulfilled, disconnected from a higher purpose and their true selves. Instead of facing these feelings, many of us turn to temporary pleasures like overeating, alcoholic consumption, smoking, substance abuse, negative thoughts, gossiping, or unhealthy relationships. Although these may give us short-term relief, they also have long-term negative effects on our health.

😫How These Habits Hurt Us

These unhealthy habits affect us in many ways. Overeating can lead to obesity and health issues like diabetes. Drinking alcohol and using drugs can damage our organs and lead to addiction. Smoking harms our lungs and increases the risk of cancer. Negative thoughts and gossip can create emotional distress that can also result in physical health problems. When we seek momentary pleasure instead of focusing on our well-being, we hurt ourselves in the long run.

💡The Biggest Challenge

The most important challenge we face is to connect with Allah (God) and be the person we were meant to be. This journey is about overcoming both external and internal challenges, working toward self-mastery.

⭐️Steps to Improve Your Life

Here are some simple ways to start overcoming these struggles:

✨Pray: Make time for regular prayer to connect with Allah, find comfort, and seek guidance.

✨Daily fasing: Purifies the mind, body and spirit.

✨Do Good: Focus on doing positive things that help you and those around you.

✨Watch What You Consume: Be aware of what you put into your body—both food and substances. Avoid things that harm you and eat things that nourish you.

✨Feed Your Mind and Spirit: Surround yourself with positive influences and thoughts. Engage in activities that lift your spirit, like reading uplifting texts, scripture reading, meditating, and practicing gratitude.

💕By facing these internal struggles and making healthier choices, we can create a more fulfilling life. The battle with ourselves is not just about overcoming personal challenges; it’s an essential part of becoming who we are truly meant to be. In the end, the fight for self is about finding our true essence and purpose.

🙁In today’s fast-paced society, it’s not uncommon for individuals to feel a sense of dissatisfaction with various aspects of their lives. Whether it’s in our careers, relationships, or personal achievements, this feeling can manifest in many ways. While occasional dissatisfaction is a part of life, chronic feelings of dissatisfaction can significantly impact both mental and physical health.

⭐️Understanding Dissatisfaction

Dissatisfaction often arises when our expectations do not align with reality. We may find ourselves yearning for a different job, a better relationship, or a more fulfilling lifestyle. However, this constant yearning can lead to feelings of frustration, resentment, and inadequacy.

🧐Effects on Mental Health

Chronic dissatisfaction can take a heavy toll on mental health. It can lead to anxiety, depression, and a skewed self-image. When we dwell on what we lack, we may struggle to appreciate the positives in our lives. Negative thought patterns can become ingrained, further deepening feelings of despair and hopelessness.

👩🏽‍⚕️Physical Health Consequences

The mind-body connection is powerful; emotional distress can manifest physically. Chronic dissatisfaction can lead to:

✨Increased Stress:Constant dissatisfaction often comes with heightened stress levels. This can lead to various physical symptoms, including headaches, digestive issues, fatigue, and chronic inflammation.

✨Weakened Immune System:Prolonged stress and negative emotions can weaken the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to illnesses.

✨Unhealthy Coping Mechanisms:To manage feelings of dissatisfaction, individuals might turn to unhealthy habits such as overeating, substance abuse, or sedentary lifestyles. These choices can lead to weight gain, cardiovascular issues, and chronic diseases.

✨Sleep Disorders:Feelings of discontent can contribute to insomnia or disrupted sleep patterns, which can further exacerbate physical health problems.

❤️The Role of Self-Love and Divine Connection in Overcoming Dissatisfaction

One powerful tool for combating dissatisfaction is self-love. Cultivating a healthy sense of self-worth can transform your perspective and help you manage feelings of discontent. Coupled with a divine connection to Allah (God) these practices can foster deeper peace and fulfillment in life. Here’s how both self-love and a connection with Allah can play a role in overcoming dissatisfaction:

💕Enhancing Self-Acceptance:When you practice self-love, you learn to accept yourself as you are, reducing the pressure to constantly strive for unattainable ideals. This acceptance fosters contentment and tranquility and is further enhanced through the understanding that you are created with a purpose by Allah.

💕Promoting Positive Self-Talk:Self-love encourages positive self-affirmations that can shift your mindset from a critical attitude to one of encouragement and support. In parallel, turning to Allah in prayer and reflection can provide reassurance and affirm your inherent worth as His creation.

💕Encouraging Healthy Boundaries:A foundation of self-love empowers you to set boundaries that protect your emotional and physical well-being. By seeking Allah's guidance, you can gain clarity on what is truly important in your life and prioritize those aspects.

💕Fostering Resilience:Embracing self-love helps develop resilience in the face of setbacks. With a strong connection to Allah, you’re more likely to view challenges as part of a bigger plan, nurturing patience and hope instead of despair.

💕Spiritual Fulfillment:Establishing a connection with Allah through prayer, reading the Quran, and engaging in acts of worship can provide comfort and a sense of belonging. This connection fosters inner peace and helps put life's challenges into perspective.

✨Practice Gratitude:Regularly reflect on the positive aspects of your life. Keeping a gratitude journal can help shift your focus from what you lack to what you have. Additionally, thanking Allah for His blessings can deepen your sense of appreciation.

✨Set Realistic Goals:Break down larger aspirations into manageable steps, linking your goals to your purpose as divinely guided. Celebrate small achievements along the way, which can help boost your overall sense of fulfillment.

✨Engage in Self-Care:Prioritize activities that nurture your body and spirit, such as exercise, meditation, or hobbies that bring you joy. Incorporating religious practices such as prayer and reflection can also provide spiritual nourishment.

✨Seek Support:Don’t hesitate to reach out to friends, family, or mental health professionals. Sharing your feelings can provide relief and new perspectives. In addition, turning to your community and seeking spiritual guidance from religious leaders or fellow believers can strengthen your connection with Allah and others.

Chronic feelings of discontent can severely affect your mental and physical health. By acknowledging these feelings and taking proactive steps to address them—through the practice of self-love and nurturing your connection with Allah—you can pave the way toward a more fulfilling and healthier lifestyle. Remember, it’s never too late to make changes that lead to greater satisfaction and well-being.

⭐️Bacterial Vaginosis: Understanding Its Impact on Women's Health and the Role of Microbiome

⭐️Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common condition in women characterized by an imbalance of bacteria in the va**na, leading to a decrease in healthy lactobacilli. Unlike yeast infections, BV results from the overgrowth of certain bacteria, affecting va**nal health.

⭐️The Microbiome and Vaginal Health

The va**nal microbiome hosts a variety of microorganisms. A healthy balance is primarily composed of lactobacilli, which maintain a slightly acidic pH that prevents harmful infections. Disruptions to this balance can arise from:

✨Antibiotics:They can kill both bad and good bacteria.

✨Hormonal Changes:Fluctuations from menstruation, pregnancy, or menopause affect the flora.

✨Sexual Activity: New partners may introduce different bacteria, or if your partner is sexually active with someone else, that person can introduce foreign bacteria to you, thus disrupting your pH balance.

✨Douching and Scented Products:These can disturb the natural balance.

Unhealthy Habits:Smoking and excessive alcohol can weaken the immune system.

✨Poor Diet:Lack of fiber-rich foods affects the gut microbiome, which can influence va**nal health.

⭐️Common symptoms include:

✨Unusual discharge (thin, gray, or white)
✨Fishy odor, especially post-intercourse
✨Itching or irritation

While BV is not classified as an STI, it can increase the risk of STIs and complications during pregnancy

⭐️Maintaining a Healthy Microbiome

To support a balanced microbiome:

✨Probiotics:Consume fermented foods or supplements to boost lactobacilli.

✨Good Hygiene:Avoid douches and harsh soaps.

✨Balanced Diet:Eat fiber-rich foods to support gut health.

✨Limit Unhealthy Habits:Reduce smoking and alcohol intake.

✨Regular Check-ups:Routine gynecological exams monitor va**nal health.

In summary, maintaining a healthy microbiome is vital for preventing BV and promoting reproductive health. If you suspect BV or experience symptoms, consult a healthcare provider for diagnosis and treatment.
