Next, he tested the category of Birds and found out that the Chicken, Duck, Goose, Turkey, Pigeon, Quail meat were all non-toxic, but that birds of prey such as Owl, Hawk, Falcon were all toxic. He did the first set of experiments on the animals specifically mentioned by name in the Scriptures, and found out that the meat of Ox, Calf, Sheep, Goat, Deer were all practically non-toxic to our bodies, while Pig, Hare, Coney, Camel were all high in Toxins. Macht experimented on the categories of Four-footed animals, birds & fish. Out of all the animals and animal classifications provided in Lev 11 & Deut 14, Dr.
In the tables with toxicity levels, any number below 75% is deemed Toxic as per Dr.Macht’s explanation. (I have highlighted some key areas for your viewing ease). Please click these images to enlarge and read through his findings, in the page excerpts provided. His investigations were published on the “Bulletin of the History of Medicine” Sep/Oct Issue in 1953, and was titled “An Experimental Pharmacological Appreciation of Leviticus XI and Deuteronomy XIV”. In his research, he made a clear connection between the toxicity levels of different meats, and God’s instruction to His people, of what they may and may not eat.
A Pharmacologist, Dr.Macht has published over 900 scientific studies, and three books as well as served in the Medicine Faculty at Johns Hopkins University. The “David Macht Research Award” was established in 1982, in his honor, and is awarded to Medicine Students to this day. Today, I present a research paper published by the John Hopkins University in 1953, by a Doctor named David Macht.
But what if there was scientifically quantifiable proof that the “Clean” and “Unclean” animal division given by our Heavenly Father is reliable, health-wise? The Food/Dietary Laws written in the Scriptures are looked upon by some, as an ancient tradition that is not practical and has no value to us, who live in the 21st Century.
