15. Barley

Exchange your brown rice for cancer fighting barley. With more than twice the fiber of rice, along with cancer-fighting selenium, barley is an excellent choice and a nice change of pace. Besides being good for your colon, the type of fiber in barley, called beta glucan, can lower your levels of fat absorption as well as blood cholesterol levels.

The Annals of Family Medicine published a study which showed that when subjects with high cholesterol consumed between 3 to 10 grams of beta glucan each day, their levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol, as well as their triglycerides, fell dramatically. This means improved heart health and an overall lower risk of stroke, and heart disease.

    The signs of the end times are everywhere…

    As we witness such things as the spread of globalism, the building of a one-world church, the increase of wickedness, the breakdown of the traditional family, the destruction of that priceless bastion of liberty called America, the normalization of homosexuality, the callous murder of babies, the filthy pop culture, the breathtaking increase in governmental surveillance, we become fearful, uncertain, frustrated, angry, and discouraged, but this is because our minds and hearts are too focused on things of this world rather than things above. Too often we have the same short view that “conservative” unbelievers have rather than the long view that comes from the light of Bible prophecy…

    The devil is the god of this world, and his handiwork is evident everywhere, but he is not God and he is not in control of the times and the seasons.

    “Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding” (Dan. 2:20-21).

    We should stand in the confidence that the present evil is exceedingly temporary and will soon be cut down.
