Whatever ever is best tolerated by your own body. Everyone is different, my friend begins his day with fruit and gets on really well. Me i prefer abit more protein and even a little fat first thing in the morning.

Carbs alone in the morning is not something i have tolerated well since adrenal fatigue.

Prof. Arnold Ehret suggests a food that has a mild laxative effect, since there would be a build up of toxins waiting for and being eliminated, and he doesn't recommend fruit, especially citrus. He actually says some raw or steamed starchless vegies or sauerkraut. However, if the person is already reasonably clean, then fruit is ok.

If you haven't read his book 'Rational Fasting', do yourself a treat and buy it. Just go to the official Arnold Ehret web site and there are heaps of really good books on sale. Ok, back to your question. I broke a 40 day fast with tomatoes with no adverse effects, and they were the sweetest fruits I've ever tasted haha.

Cheers, geo

Most people I know use fruit to come off from a water fast.

I would say that it really depends on what kind of fast you've been on. A fruit juice, tea or water fast would best break by gradually adding fibers into your diet, to give bulk to your stool. I would say unpeeled fruits and greens are a good place to start.

Good luck!

Yes, and I've broken all my fasts with fruit too, thinking that it's the most digestable food and easy on the system. However, what Ehret says does makes sense.
