Amazing Health Facts Magazine

Even Moses had to die, but what a way to go! After living six score years, the weathered but wiry patriarch climbed a mountain. There, in the clean desert air and under blue skies, he viewed the Promised Land with crystal clear eyes. Then he simply lay down … and died. During his pilgrimage in the wilderness, Moses followed all the Bible secrets for a longer, stronger life — fresh air, exercise, a good diet, and trust in God, just to name a few. Even though healthful living might not eliminate the prospect of death, it can certainly postpone it and greatly improve the quality of the life we do live! Moses was active and lucid even on his last day: He “went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, which is across from Jericho” (Deuteronomy 34:1 NKJV). It shouldn’t take 10 years to die. One of the main reasons for America’s health crisis is that through poor living habits, most people invite an unsavory assortment of disabling diseases. Plagued with a pandemic of diabetes, cancer, and heart disease, it seems that many people spend their last 10, 20, or even 30 years dying! Moreover, these self-destructive lifestyles have led to overcrowded hospitals, astronomical medical costs, and a virtually bankrupt government. People are so stressed, they can’t sleep, as antacids fly off the shelf and the number of handicap parking places seems to climb. It doesn’t need to be this way. It can change. Indeed, people want good health … but they are clearly confused about where to find it. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the public has 30,000 health supplements available to them on the market, representing a multibillion dollar industry. Indeed, more than 150 million Americans take some form of health supplement each year. Sadly, people are not only looking for health in all the wrong places, they’re wasting a small fortune along the way. Yet please consider that human physiology hasn’t changed since the days of Moses, and those health secrets that worked for Moses also sustained an entire nation of people. In fact, after the Israelites traveled through the wilderness, following God’s health plan along the way, the Bible records, “There was not one feeble person among their tribes” (Psalm 105:37). Can you imagine that? A nation of more than 2 million citizens without one person in a clinic or nursing home! Likewise, it’s not hard to fathom that 70 percent of our hospitals and pharmaceutical makers would simply shut down if we would all just follow the free health plan found in the Bible. These Bible secrets of health — each summarized in this magazine — are not composed of mysterious rituals or strange herbal concoctions. They are real, proven principles backed by modern science. We only call them“secrets” here because they have been neglected and buried by time and culture. So whatever your age, and regardless of your current health, these free principles can truly lead you to a longer and stronger … and happier … life. If that is what you want, keep reading! 2 “Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim nor his natural vigor abated.” —Deuteronomy 34:7 (NKJV)
