Dr. Terry Shintani- “Living Treasure of Hawaii- now a Knight of Saint John

“I am humbled and honored to become part of this humanitarian Order... I look forward to being a part of the international work that the Knights of the Order of St. John have undertaken for nearly a thousand years.”- Dr.Terry Shintani

He deserves it. God is good in his life. Dr.Shintani has never wasted the blessings he has got from above by offering what he has to other people. A true servant-leader indeed.

A lot of people today who are powerful, intelligent, and have got everything in this world, yet, they don't have the heart of service. Unlike them, Dr. Terry Shintani, chose to earn and give. He earned knowledge, worked, and then shared his accomplishments with us.

Dr.Terry Shintani has been a great leader in the field of complementary and integrative medicine, He was honored by being knighted by the Sovereign Order of the Orthodox Knights Hospitaller of Saint John of Jerusalem for his accomplishments in medicine and his years of service to humanity. May 24, 2009- the Order conferred upon him the title of “Knight of Honor” in a formal investiture ceremony that took place in New York City. He has also been designated the “Living Treasure of Hawaii” by the Honpa Hongwanji Mission and is best known for developing the “Shintani Diet”, which became popular for its natural effect weight loss and improvement in health.

Indeed, Dr. Shintani stands as an inspiration for everyone. He is a model for responsible stewardship. He is investing his intelligence, skills, strength, and everything to God and people. Nothing is wasted in his life. Let's all do the same.

You my friend has your own strengths. It's impossible to think that God has not given you anything to grow and bear fruit. Today, you are challenged to use them for God's glory. Dr. Shintani should have been using what he has for his selfish ambitions but he chose to be "selfless" like what God did. You too has the opportunity to serve. Like God, He came to earth to serve and not to be served.

Sit and suffer a stroke!

Did you know that when you are sitting, there is an important enzyme that is shutting down?

This enzyme is called LIPASE, which is responsible for the processing of the fats in your body. Once this shuts down, the processing apparently stops too. Veins will be blocked, causing heart diseases. This is one of the reasons why office workers, who sit in front of the computer the whole day, have weak heart. And yes, all "tamad" people are prone to suffer a stroke too. So if you want to have a heart failure, just sit all day!



From wiki: A lipase is a water-soluble enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ester bonds in water–insoluble, lipid substrates. Lipases thus comprise a subclass of the esterases. Lipases perform essential roles in the digestion, transport and processing of dietary lipids such as triglycerides, fats, oils in most, if not all, living organisms. Genes encoding lipases are even present in certain viruses.

One of the most blessed people i've met is Dr.Shintani. He has been used by God to help other people believe that they can heal thru natural way or God's way. I have been listening to his health radio program (healing and you) aired in Hawaii and so far, i have learned a lot. Glory to God because i am enabled to share what i've learned to other people as well. I believe God has enabled Dr.Shintani to do what he is doing now.

Just recently, he flew to New York and and attended the "knighting" ceremony. He was officially "knighted" into the Sovereign Order of the Knights Hospitaller of St. John of Jerusalem, the oldest healing order in the Christian world dating back to the Crusades (aorund 1047 or so). It is sanctioned by Prince Michael of Russia, the Patriarch of Russia (like its pope) and the Russian Orthodox Church. He has sent me a couple of pics like this one.


I pray that God will continuously use Dr.Shintani to help people heal. He is one gifted human, made to bless other people.
