Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks gives you a gentle, structured start into a biblical, plant-based lifestyle rooted in God's original design. With clear teaching, simple kitchen skills, and a steady daily rhythm, you will know what to do first, what to do next, and how to honor the Lord with the way you nourish your body.
Self-paced • Written & video lessons • Knowledge quizzes • Lifetime access


You may have read books, watched videos, bought supplements, or tried a new way of eating—only to slip back into old patterns. That can feel discouraging, especially when you genuinely desire to honor God with your body.
It is not a lack of faith or willpower. Often, it is a lack of a clear, gentle beginning and a steady path to follow.
If you nodded at any of those — Foundations was created for you. Specifically.

“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.”
Genesis 1:29 (KJV)
The Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks course is not built on a passing health trend. It is anchored in God's original design for nourishment and informed by more than 30 years of Hallelujah Diet experience walking alongside believers on their health journeys.
In this course, you will see how enzyme-rich living foods, fresh plant juices, and simple lifestyle shifts can support the body's natural processes. We begin with the “why” — the biblical and biological reasons that a plant-based pattern of eating can support healthy energy, digestion, clarity, and more, while always remembering that individual results vary.
You will not be asked to change everything overnight. Each week builds gently on the last, so you can practice, adjust, and grow into a sustainable, Scripture-rooted lifestyle.
1
Discover the biblical and biological foundations of the Hallelujah Diet approach. You will see how God's original design in Genesis 1:29 and enzyme-rich living foods can support the body's natural processes, and you will begin to observe your current habits with grace rather than shame.
2
Begin making small, focused changes you can actually maintain. You will add in simple, living foods and beverages that many people report help support healthy energy, digestion, and mental clarity — while still living in your real schedule and family environment.
3
Turn your mornings into a calm, nourishing start instead of a rush. You will learn basic kitchen setup, simple juicing routines, and how to create a morning rhythm that supports healthy digestion and steady focus throughout the day.
4
Walk aisle by aisle (virtually) with Ann as she shows you how to read labels, choose budget-wise staples, and stock a pantry that supports your new way of eating. Many people report that this week alone transforms how they feel in the grocery store.
5
Rather than taking everything away, you will first learn gentle replacements for common meals and snacks. As new habits take root, you will be guided in what to reduce or remove, step by step, in a way that feels realistic and grace-filled.
6
In your final week, you will reflect on how far you have come, identify the changes you want to continue, and learn how to keep growing after the course. You will see how this six-week beginning can support healthy energy, easier choices, and a deeper sense of biblical stewardship over your body.
Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks was created for real life — kitchens with other people in them, busy schedules, and bodies that may already feel tired. You will receive:
Time commitment: plan on about 2–3 hours per week. Most weeks include short lessons, a few brief videos, and practical steps to apply in your kitchen and daily rhythm. You can always move more slowly if you need to.
Most students spread their learning across the week — 20–30 minutes on a few days, plus small changes in the kitchen. The goal is not perfection; it is steady, faithful steps in the same direction.



Ann Malkmus serves as the Chief of Education for Hallelujah Diet. For decades, she has been teaching, writing, and walking alongside believers who want to care for their bodies in light of Scripture and God's original design.
Again and again, Ann watched sincere Christians try to piece things together from books, articles, and videos. Many shared that they felt overwhelmed — not because they doubted the biblical foundation, but because they did not know how to begin in a structured, realistic way.
Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks is the first official step-by-step beginner pathway on MyHDiet.com. It is designed so you are not left with information only — you are given a guide. Ann will walk with you through each week, helping you connect faith and food in your everyday routines.
Her goal is not to pressure you, but to encourage you — one simple, faithful step at a time.
These stories reflect how this kind of biblical, plant-based foundation has encouraged and equipped other believers on their health journeys.

It is wise to be thoughtful. Here are clear answers to some of the most common questions about Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks.
Many people stop because they try to change everything at once or follow plans that do not match their real lives. Foundations is built for gentle, sustainable progress — one week at a time. You are given clear teaching plus small, specific steps to practice. The focus is not on perfection, but on learning a lifestyle of biblical stewardship that you can grow into over time.
You do not have to wait for everyone around you to be ready. In the course, Ann offers practical ideas for preparing foods that can serve both you and your family, how to add more living, plant-based foods to shared meals, and how to walk in peace when others are not yet ready for the same changes. Many students begin by quietly modeling a new way of eating and letting results speak over time.
Yes. Foundations is designed with beginners in mind. You will not be asked to create complicated recipes. Instead, you will learn simple combinations, basic kitchen setups, and straightforward ways to prepare enzyme-rich living foods and plant meals. If you can follow simple instructions and chop a few vegetables, you can begin.
A biblical, plant-based lifestyle can be shaped around many different budgets. In Week 4, you will learn practical grocery strategies, how to prioritize key items, and ways to use staples like beans, grains, and seasonal produce. Some people find that as they reduce processed foods and convenience items, their spending becomes more focused and intentional.
Daily fresh juice can be a powerful way to support your body with living nutrients, but we know not every season of life allows for daily juicing. In this course you will learn how juicing supports the body's natural processes, how often many people aim to juice, and how Hallelujah Diet products like BarleyMax may fit into your routine. You will be encouraged to do what is realistic for you and to adjust over time.
Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks is an educational course, not medical advice. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

Many participants involve their doctors, share what they are learning, and work together as they make changes.
Foundations: Your First 6 Weeks is a one-time investment in clarity, confidence, and a biblical framework for stewarding your health.
A biblical, step-by-step beginning to your plant-based health journey.
