What is a Cleansing Fast?
A cleansing fast is simply not eating anything for a meal, a day, or a week.
Fasting is an ancient practice. It is the oldest health remedy for preventing sickness and disease and restoring health.
A professionally supervised cleansing fast is a natural non-invasive therapy that is designed to clean your colon of pesticides, preservatives and other toxic substances.
About Fasting
Fasting is a powerful way to eliminate toxins from your cells, your bloodstream, and just about every organ in your body. Fasting gives all your organs a much needed rest. It purifies your blood, cleanses your liver and kidneys, helps you lose any weight you don’t need, cleanses your colon and removes toxins from your tissues.
A cleansing fast also clears your tongue and eyes, and improves your breath.
How To Get Started
Before beginning a cleansing program, you must realize that your health is your own responsibility. Start out slow; first, try a raw food fast. An apple cleansing fast is ideal for beginning fasters.
The next time, drink only juice. And finally, when you feel you’re ready, try a cleansing fast where you just drink water. This can be fresh coconut water which doesn’t contain any fiber and has the added benefit of really cleaning your stomach and colon.
Once the cleansing fast is completed, avoid sugar and white flour for as long as you can.
Losing Weight
Never fast in order to lose weight. The best way to lose weight is to start exercising. When you go on a cleansing fast, you will lose some weight but it is never recommended to fast with weight loss as your dominating goal. If you just want to lose weight, it’s better if you start eating a healthy diet and exercise at least 30 minutes every day.
People consume food in ever larger quantities and also do not follow any exercise regime, that’s why they are so fat. Temporary fasting won’t solve the problem as most of these people go back to their old lifestyle once the fast is over.
Give It A Try!
Do your first cleansing fast today! Skip one meal and drink some coconut water instead. It’s the first step on your journey to health through fasting. I believe many doctors just don’t want people to discover how inexpensive and easy it is to develop such a healthy and life affirming habit.
