Juice Fast question
Posted by: satori108 ()

Hey guys,

I'm going to start my first juice fast this week. I'm wondering how long I should do it for to get sufficiently cleansed. I've done the Master Cleanse a few years ago, but I never made it past 6 days. I'm hoping that I will succeed this time. I think I will because I'm so tired of these detox symptoms. I feel like I've been detoxing forever and I figure it's because I haven't suffiently cleansed myself. I'm going to use fruit juices and green juices and senna tea at night.

Does anyone have suggestions on how long I should fast?

Thank you!

don't try to do too much or go too fast. 3 days would be sufficient to make a good start at it. be steady with your idea and aim for frequency of short amounts evan if you choose to go less than 3 days for a start. make a sincer attempt to enjoy the process for what it is and flow with it.

The Body can live indefinitely on Just Juice. It's
the Mind that must be pampered. I like to go on Wheatgrass Juice,
Carrot Juice, and Celery Juice. When I start feeling deprived, it's
time for a Green Smoothie....WY

yogi..


am i understanding you correctly here that once the smoothie is introduced...the juice fast is over since digestion would have to "kick in" again and the fasting mode would be over?

John...I don't feel the way people have fasted
(since Biblical Times) is best for Detox. Even Jesus' 40-day
Water Fast (Some believe He took nothing orally, but just got
water through the skin from the morning Dew) doesn't seem right
to me...too radical. I'm trying to come up with my own plan (continuous
improvement), but am still working on it. I've learned one
thing....if a lot of people are doing a thing, then it must
be Wrong. Anyway, that's the way I'm living my life.
What are your views on Fasting??...WY

simply goat your own speed..that mean don't bite off more than you can chew

without some sort of fasting discipline good health is cannot be complete. people tend to make up all sorts of excuses for not not dloing it...and logically so since it is a bit uncomfortable in the initial stages.

fasting is must for optimum health in my opinion.
