Yes, definitely I think short fasts can be very helpful. They've helped me from time to time when I was too busy or had some other reason I couldn't do a longer fast. I asked a friend who's a raw food coach in California about this last summer, because he has a lot of experience with fasting and Natural Hygiene, and he told me absolutely, 3 day fasts are great, and he said "Don't listen to anyone who tells you they're not." I'm fasting right now! ;-) Wonder how long I'll go this time. It's day 2 for me and so far I feel surprisingly energetic and generally ok. My husband has promised me I get to rest and just laze around the house for the next several days (we had a lot of errands to do today), so I'm psyched about maybe accomplishing a lot of detoxification with this fast. Wish me luck! Sharrhan: [www.facebook.com] Re: Fasting Questions

Date: October 25, 2007 01:00AM I started my water-fast yesterday ( Because of headache) and I think I end it tomorrow so it will be about 3 days long. So when I saw the fasting question I was so happy, I knew it will be beneficial to read it. I just want to thank you, it came right in time for me Re: Fasting Questions

I am definately interested in fasting as a means to greater health and higher awareness rather than soley to recover from something. I find that my own diet is closely connected to my state of mind and vice versa. I'm going to have to try it soon. Re: Fasting Questions

Date: October 25, 2007 11:33PM re medications, is the thinking that anyone taking a prescription med should not do a fast?
My body has been crying out for a fast. I feel like I need a pause, a break from any confusion over what food/vitamin is having what effect on my body. I would just like a couple of days to give my mind and body a rest and just meditate. But..I take thyroxine (very little, but still..). Should I not be considering a fast at all? The juice fast is not very appealing to me since I'm still experiencing blood sugar ups and downs. Re: Fasting Questions

Date: October 26, 2007 03:15AM There's a lovely lady who used to post either on this forum or another one, who was on throid medication and had been on a raw diet for some time with sensational results. I wonder if she ever fasted? I'll try to remember her name and look up her blog; if I find the info. I'll certainly let you know. Sharrhan: [www.facebook.com] Re: Fasting Questions
