    Shasta, you don't actually believe the "Only water for 3 weeks!" story from him, do you
    Oh, but it's true

    It only takes will power. Some people have it, some people don't.

    vaccine never benefits one's health by any means imho. it may help protect people from certain diseases (not 100% working, and sometimes causing unwanted side effects), but people are still exposed to 99% other species of viruses to which they're not immune at all.

    Historical records tell us that fasting has been used for health recovery for thousands of years. Hippocrates, Socrates, and Plato all recommended fasting for health recovery. The Bible tells us that Moses and Jesus fasted for 40 days for spiritual renewal. Mahatma Gandhi fasted for 21 days to promote respect and compassion between people with different religions.
    For much of human history, fasting has been guided by intuition and spiritual purpose. Today, our understanding of human physiology confirms the powerful healing effects of fasting.


    Fasting is a powerful therapeutic process that can help people recover from mild to severe health conditions. Some of the most common ones are high blood pressure, asthma, allergies, chronic headaches, inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease), irritable bowel syndrome, adult onset diabetes, heart disease, degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, eczema, acne, uterine fibroids, benign tumours, and systemic lupus erythematosus.


    Fasting provides a period of concentrated physiological rest during which time the body can devote its self-healing mechanisms to repairing and strengthening damaged organs. The process of fasting also allows the body to cleanse cells of ac ulated toxins and waste products.


    Fasting gives the digestive tract time to completely rest and strengthen its mucosal lining. A healthy intestinal mucosal lining is necessary for preventing the leakage of incompletely digested proteins into the bloodstream, thereby offering protection against autoimmune conditions. A healthy digestive tract also helps to protect the blood and inner organs against a variety of environmental and metabolic toxins.
    A fast that is appropriate for your situation will allow for you to experience some or all of the following:

    • More energy
    • Healthier skin
    • Healthier teeth and gums
    • Better quality sleep
    • A clean and healthy cardiovascular system
    • A decrease in anxiety and tension
    • Dramatic reduction or complete elimination of aches and pains in muscles and joints
    • Decrease or elimination of headaches
    • Stabilization of blood pressure
    • Stronger and more efficient digestion
    • Stabilization of bowel movements
    • Loss of excess weight
    • Elimination of stored toxins
    • Improvement with a wide variety of chronic degenerative health conditions, including autoimmune disorders

    It is important to understand that the detoxifying and healing processes that occur during a fast are also active when a person is consuming food. A fast can be helpful for people whose conditions are not improving as quickly as they would like, or for people who have health conditions that require a concentrated period of healing to resolve. It is also important to understand that the most important part of a fast is how a person lives after the fast. Fasting can provide a clean and revitalized foundation upon which you can build and maintain a strong and well-conditioned body by consistently making healthy food and lifestyle choices.


    What follows are answers to commonly asked questions about fasting:

    Q. How do I know if I need to fast?
    A: The answer to this question depends on your health status and goals. For many people, adopting an unprocessed, whole food diet, engaging in a sensible exercise program, acquiring restful sleep, and living in a relatively unpolluted environment will provide the necessary conditions to recover and maintain vibrant health. If a person is having a difficult time making necessary dietary and lifestyle changes, fasting can be a powerful way of accelerating health recovery. Fasting can also reset the sensitivity of the nervous system, providing an effective way of overcoming dependencies on caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, other recreational drugs, salt, sugar, and other stimulants. After fasting, many people marvel at how sweet romaine lettuce is, how refreshing apples are, and how wonderfully delicious baked potatoes are – without sour cream and butter! Many of us have been eating rich, salty, and sweetened foods for so long that we are unaware of how good foods taste in their natural, unprocessed states.
    Some people choose to fast in the absence of overt symptoms of disease, knowing that a period of complete physiological rest can allow the body to rejuvenate itself from the toxins that build up in our tissues despite our efforts to live healthfully.


    Q. How long should I fast for?
    A. If you choose to fast to recover from acute illness, you can fast until you feel well enough to eat again. In the case of a chronic health challenge, the length of the fast is determined by the progress of the fast. The healing processes that take place during a fast are predictable. Blood levels of cholesterol and uric acid tend to elevate during a fast, a result of the body stirring up stores of undesirable materials and expelling them into the circulation to be eliminated from the body. Shortly after the fast, these levels tend to be lower than they were before the fast, indicating a cleaner system. ESR, a marker for inflammation, tends to decrease during the course of a fast. As a part of the detoxification process, some people experience vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, dizziness, skin rashes, and other uncomfortable symptoms. Fasting under the supervision of a health care professional who is trained to distinguish healing responses from harmful processes can be helpful in allowing a person to "ride out" uncomfortable symptoms of detoxification.
    It is not uncommon for people to experience significant improvement in their health from fasting between 3 and 30 days. The idea is to fast as briefly as possible, but as long as is necessary to allow the body to restore health.


    Q. Can anyone fast?
    A. There are a handful of exceptional cir stances in which it is not advisable to fast. A small portion of the population has an inborn error of metabolism whereby they lack an enzyme that is needed to process fatty acids. Since fatty acids are needed as an alternate source of energy during a fast, it would not be safe for such a person to pursue a fast of significant duration. This disorder can be recognized early in the fasting process by a trained observer.


    Intake of certain medications, certain liver and kidney disorders, states of extreme weakness or malnutrition, pregnancy, and certain types and stages of cancer are other examples of conditions that are not conducive to fasting.


    Q. Can fasting cure specific conditions?
    A: It's important to keep in mind that fasting is not a cure for specific health challenges. Rather, it is an opportunity to give the body a prolonged period of rest to do what it does best – heal and restore itself. The same healing mechanisms that are at work during a fast are also at work while a person is eating. The difference is that during a fast, all of the body's resources are channeled towards its self-healing and restorative mechanisms.


    Conditions that tend to respond favourably to fasting and dietary modification include high blood pressure, asthma, allergies, chronic headaches, inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease), irritable bowel syndrome, adult onset diabetes, heart disease, degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, eczema, acne, uterine fibroids, benign tumours, and systemic lupus erythematosus.


    Q. How much weight will I lose if I fast?
    A. On average, a typical faster loses approximately one pound per day during a water-only fast. Initially, the loss may approach two or even three pounds per day for the first few days if the person is retaining significant sodium and water. This can decrease to approximately half a pound per day in the later stages of a fast. From day two onward, the body begins utilizing fatty tissues for energy, thereby conserving as much muscle tissue as possible, a mechanism called protein sparing.


    Q. What is the difference between water fasting and juice fasting?
    A. During a water fast, only water is consumed. During a juice fast, any variety of fruit and vegetable juices are consumed.
    People detoxify and heal more quickly with a water fast than with a juice fast. This is because with a water fast, your digestive passageway and organs are able to rest completely, allowing for all of your energy to be used for cleansing and repair of damaged tissues. With a juice fast or a cleansing diet of fruits and vegetables, your body must use energy to digest nutrients, leaving less available energy for detoxification and healing. When a person's health condition is related to a weak or damaged digestive system, recovery may depend on fully resting the digestive passageway and organs through water fasting.


    Another significant difference is that more fat tissue is burned during a water fast, as your body must rely exclusively on fat reserves to supply its energy needs after the first 1-3 days of water fasting. Your body stores the bulk of incoming toxins in your fat reserves. As these reserves are burned for energy during a fast, any stored toxins will be released into your circulation, to be eliminated through various eliminative channels like your urine and respiratory tract. This mechanism of detoxification also occurs with juice fasting, but at a slower pace.



    All of this considered, both types of fasting can be used with effectiveness, depending on your cir stances and goals. If your situation and goals include wanting or needing to make significant gains in your health in a short period of time, water fasting may be the best route. If a person has a long history of taking extremely toxic drugs like certain chemotherapeutic agents, an intense period of detoxification through water fasting can cause damage to the kidneys. In this type of cir stance, juice fasting or a simple diet of organic vegetables and fruits may be the best first step to recovery.



    Finally, a water fast is most effective when you are able to get a lot of physical and emotional rest. If your life cir stances don't allow this, juice fasting is a better choice.



    Q. Won't my metabolism slow down during and after the fast, causing me to gain back more weight over the long haul?
    A. Metabolic rate fluctuates according to our moment-to-moment physiological needs. When we are active, our metabolic rate speeds up. When we sleep, our metabolic rate slows down. In the same way, when we fast, our metabolic rate slows down because our physiological needs are lower than they are when we are consuming food and going about our regular activities. When a fast is broken and a person returns to eating and more activity, her metabolic rate increases to match her increasing physiological needs.


    What does change during a fast is our digestive and assimilative capacity. Fasting provides an opportunity for our digestive organs to heal and make more efficient use of the nutrients in the foods that we consume. Weight gain or loss is always a simple function of how many calories we take in versus how many we expend. If your primary goal is to be at a healthful weight for your unique disposition, the optimal approach is usually to combine an unprocessed, whole food diet with a regular aerobic exercise and strength-training program.

    I expected for you to spew that nonsense, I really did .
    Science in nonsense? Oh right I forgot you go to Rob Schneiders school for body stuff and junk.

    In fact a water or juice fast done right heals all of those things instead lol. Gives you better awareness, helps your brain and cures you.
    Cures you of what? And no you're wrong. The brain needs glucose and 3 weeks of glucose deprivation to the brain is certainly NOT good for it.
    And my daughter doesn't need any fasting, thankfully to my wonderful decision to keep poisons away from her. When she is an adult, if she wants to fast that is her decision. But thanks for trying to play parent.
    You're welcome. You need some help. What does the girl's mother think of this?
    I told you to quit, you will continue to be wrong, and sadly you all believe the lies you have been told by Big Pharma.
    Only I haven't learned them from BigPharma. Unlike you I don't learn from the internet

    Guess what I also cured my gallstones naturally too with a heart. liver gallbladder cleanse, when the doctors told me I needed surgery lol.
    Oh and your stones disappeared? When did you have the confirming diagnostics?

    He seems to believe it

    This is all pretty funny. Except when talking about his daughter. Sounds like he's teaching her some pretty backwards things when it comes to health.

    Btw gallstones and gallbladder problems tend to happen when a person fasts. LOL

    Do you follow holistic medicine as well? Do you think substances get MORE potent the more you dilute them?

    Programmed profit driven science paid for by Big Pharma is. The Rob Schneider jab didn't help you btw lol

    Cures you of what? And no you're wrong. The brain needs glucose and 3 weeks of glucose deprivation to the brain is certainly NOT good for it.
    You're welcome. You need some help. What does the girl's mother think of this?
    It cures many things. I guess you missed what I posted by the Doctor. You don't know anything about it really, so why continue to comment on something you know nothing about. Oh and if you ever did any reading, you would have read I'm a single parent too, no mom in the picture I've done pretty well.

    Only I haven't learned them from BigPharma. Unlike you I don't learn from the internet
    You only have Big Pharma taught answers, so yea, you're wrong lol

    Oh and your stones disappeared? When did you have the confirming diagnostics?
    At the doctors office, the stones showed up after I went in after a gallstone attack, they said I needed to have them removed, I chose not to, went home and did my cleanse over a couple days and I showed up afterward to show the doctor and new tests confirmed I didn't have them anymore lol

    It was hilarious. Years of Med school taught him they had to cut them out. He looked crushed lol

    Do some reading buddy. It'll help you

    So his examples are from thousands of years ago, unconfirmed biblical tales, and a man who fasted as protest. Why should we doubt the health recommendations from people who didn't even know what microbes are? I'd also like to take advice on anesthesia, aseptic technique, and surgery from those gentlemen.

    Fasting is a powerful therapeutic process that can help people recover from mild to severe health conditions. Some of the most common ones are high blood pressure, asthma, allergies, chronic headaches, inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease), irritable bowel syndrome, adult onset diabetes, heart disease, degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, eczema, acne, uterine fibroids, benign tumours, and systemic lupus erythematosus.
    This man is very good at listing diseases. It would be nice if he outlines HOW fasting helped with all those things. But he doesn't.


    Fasting provides a period of concentrated physiological rest during which time the body can devote its self-healing mechanisms to repairing and strengthening damaged organs. The process of fasting also allows the body to cleanse cells of ac ulated toxins and waste products.
    Absolute bull. Cells need nutrients or they can't function. Ions, glucose, minerals, vitamins, etc are all needed for cellular machinery. Water can have trace minerals, though it sounds like you were drinking at the very least purified water. So you were lacking in many things your cells needed to function.


    Fasting gives the digestive tract time to completely rest and strengthen its mucosal lining.
    Properly rest??? You don't want your gi tract to "rest". It will lead to upregulation of receptors and hypermotility when you do start eating again. Also, it isn't good for your gallbladder as noted before. It promotes stasis of biliary mechanisms leading to precipitation of compounds (causing stones). It also needs to be very active or there will be bacterial overgrowth which could lead to systemic infection. Knowledge gleaned from actual teaching, not BigPharma or the internet.
    A healthy intestinal mucosal lining is necessary for preventing the leakage of incompletely digested proteins into the bloodstream, thereby offering protection against autoimmune conditions. A healthy digestive tract also helps to protect the blood and inner organs against a variety of environmental and metabolic toxins.
    All true. Only drinking a diet of water accomplishes none of that.

    A fast that is appropriate for your situation will allow for you to experience some or all of the following:

    • More energy - How?
    • Healthier skin - How?
    • Healthier teeth and gums - How?
    • Better quality sleep - How?
    • A clean and healthy cardiovascular system - How?
    • A decrease in anxiety and tension - How?
    • Dramatic reduction or complete elimination of aches and pains in muscles and joints - How?
    • Decrease or elimination of headaches - How?
    • Stabilization of blood pressure - How?
    • Stronger and more efficient digestion - How?
    • Stabilization of bowel movements - How?
    • Loss of excess weight - LOL and muscle
    • Elimination of stored toxins - How?
    • Improvement with a wide variety of chronic degenerative health conditions, including autoimmune disorders - How?
    It is important to understand that the detoxifying and healing processes that occur during a fast are also active when a person is consuming food. A fast can be helpful for people whose conditions are not improving as quickly as they would like,
    Let's speed along the health process because that always works.
    or for people who have health conditions that require a concentrated period of healing to resolve.
    lolwut


    You want me to go through his Q&A too? Is he even a real doctor? Did he go to Medical School? Or did he go to a bull holistic medical school?

    Go do some real research on Fasting for healing. It's impossible to talk to you because the way you think is flawed. You just don't get it, and it's funny that you don't know what I mean when I say that.

    Forget everything you have learned and go do some research on Fasting for healing, then make your own honest opinion. Go and truly learn how your body works and what REAL Fasting on juices and water really does for you.

    You are on Chump level now, completely full of it. lol

    That's exactly what I mean, you don't even understand how it is that you are wrong.

    It's not an opinion. It's scientific fact. Go do some research on organ systems. Oh wait you think peer reviewed literature is just BigPharma telling us what to do. Incredible.

    Chump reminds me of this guy who I once saw trying to eat fish out of lake worth over here where there has been a ban on human consumption for years due to the PCB and other toxic chemicals. He wanted to know if I was going to throw my fish back and ask if he could have it..I tell him that the fish here aren't safe to eat and cause cancer and do you know what this redneck says? He goes "Awww I don't believe in all that, I got cancer right now and it sure as ain't from eating these fish for 30 years!"
    Actually, you and SA210 would eat the fish because you think eating nothing made you super immune to everything. Then you would have unprotected sex with multiple men because you think AIDS is just a CIA plot to collect the foreskins of newborn boys .

    As Chump is typing, he has a box full of tissues on his desk, typing up a bunch of bull in favor of vaccines not even realizing why he has chronic allergies
    I have no chronic allergies.

    And yet I survived a 23 day fast on water, healed myself from gallstones, migraine headaches, and haven't been sick in over 7 years, daughter hasn't been sick in 10, I have more energy, clear skin, healthy heart, liver, organs, etc than anyone I know who all take meds and vaccines

    You notice how SA210 started off bragging about living on nothing but water for three weeks then when called on it quickly walked back to add "juices" to his list.

    just put a few bags of groceries in a blender and pretended he wasn't taking anything in.

    Kudos for remaining healthy in spite of your terrible methods of remaining healthy. I'm guessing if you continue to do things like this you'll have a major organ fail in 5-10 years. When was the last time you went to a REAL doctor? What's your blood pressure like? How about liver enzymes and function? I'm curious.

    How did you measure the health of your heart, liver, organs, etc.?

    Why are all the tin-foil hatters health experts. They've discovered adverse health effects to countless different things no one else has ever heard of before. It's impressive tbh.
