How To Eat To Live

[Section Editor’s Note: The following contains excerpts from the Minister’s message from The Time and What Must Be Done, Part 37 titled, “Wicked Policy and America’s National Interests,” which originally aired on Saturday, September 21, 2013.]

Zbigniew Brzezinski said, “It is easier to kill a million people today than to control a million people.” And while at the same time the Third World peoples are multiplying, the White population is diminishing in Europe, it’s diminishing in America, by The Power of Allah (God)!

Putting poison in the water to sterilize human beings so that the gift of reproduction, which God gives to every creature to maintain and sustain and reproduce itself:

That very process is being killed by food that we need to eat, water that we need to drink; poison in the air that we need to breathe, and poison in the earth that is under our foot to produce what we put in our mouths as food and as seeds for planting.

Yes, even the seeds, too, are poisoned. And in next week’s broadcast, we will mention “Monsanto” and “DuPont,” and what they’re doing to seeds.

In the Honorable Elijah Muhammad’s monumental book, “How To Eat To Live, Book 1,” the Honorable Elijah Muhammad wrote over 50 years ago about the dangers of chemical sterilants and additives being put in our water and food! 

[By the way, all of you: If you don’t have this book, why don’t you write to us and get a copy of it? And if you have it, take it down and re-read it. And when we get into this book on “How To Eat To Live,”

We will bring you the new writings from the M.G.T. & G.C.C. class of The Nation of Islam that will show you not only what to eat, but how to cook it; and the nutritional value of everything that you put in your mouth … .]

On Page 26, in the chapter “How Allah’s Way Prolongs Life,” he writes: “Many are advertising what to eat, and what medicines to take to make you eat or stop you from eating. Many books are written and sold on good and bad foods, as well as on reducing the weight and on how to increase the weight, introducing the many chemicals used to bring about the desired result.

But Allah, in the Person of Master Fard Muhammad, to Whom praises are due forever, has given us a better and safer way to do these things.” Which, of course, we will go into in future broadcasts. And on Pages 107-108, in the chapter “Poisonous Food and Water,” the Honorable Elijah Muhammad continues: 

“Take, for instance, the use of fluoride, chloride, and sodium, which if not used correctly can destroy our entire life. Maybe it is best to find something else that will clear our water without killing both us and the poison in our food and water.

The scientist should not advocate the use of such poisonous chemicals as fluoride, chloride, and sodium, which may have a bad effect on our brains and our human reproductive organs.

The scientist that uses such poison on human beings wants to either minimize the birth rates or cause the extinction of a people. D.D.T., which is sprayed on food while it is growing up from the earth, is also a poison that should not be put into the human body, regardless of the desire to kill the insects that loves to dine on the same food on which we dine. The poison may not take instant [effect] on us, as it does the insects, but it can, over the long years, help shorten the span of our lives.

We live in a world commercializing on everything where money is involved, and this has speeded production of everything but human lives, in order to fill the demand of the people. This has caused many scientists to overlook the dangerous effects that such fast production has on the health of the people.

Therefore, the only way out for us, the poor Lost-Found Black man and woman of America, is to seek refuge and guidance in Allah for our protection from the evil plannings and doings of Satan.

Allah (God) has pointed out to us in both the Bible and the Holy Qur’an the right foods for us to eat and He has pointed out the poisonous food and drinks. Follow Allah (God’s) guidance or suffer the consequences.”

In fact, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad says of His Teachings: “What I am teaching you is life! Accept it and live! Reject it, and the consequences are an untimely and early death.”

Remember the words of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad when he spoke of the scientists that use such poison on human beings. Elijah Muhammad said they either want to: 1.) “minimize the birth rates” of human beings, or 2.) “cause the extinction of a people.” That is very serious, for both of these are a part of “The Convention on Genocide.”

What is “genocide”? According to Article 2 of “The Convention on The Prevention and Punishment of The Crime of Genocide” [adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on December 9, 1948, enforced on January 12, 1951], it states:

“In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

(a) Killing members of the group; (b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; (c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; and (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.”

My dear people of America, my dear brothers and sisters, all of that is going on right now as of this broadcast. We are being the victims of genocide. And you know, we could take our government, with these policies, to the International Criminal Court. But most of the nations of the Earth have signed that they will not take Americans, or American citizens, to the International Criminal Court.

And America has used the threat of what she gives to these nations, that she will “take it away” if they don’t sign that they will never bring an American before the International Criminal Court.
