Hi hghbuzz,

I start breaking the dry fast by slow sipping pure water and observing my body after each swallowing. I tent to keep every sip in my mouth as long as possible, mixing the water with my saliva. I do it for an hour or so. When everything seems to be O.K., I keep on consuming more water, several huge glasses for at least one day. Usually, when I continue my fast by changing it into a water fast, I drink pure water according to the thirst for as many days as I wish to continue my water fast.

However, when I wish to exit my dry fast and return to the regular diet, I still slowly sip pure water for the first several hours until my thirst disappears, but then I usually start drinking the rejuvelac and water - diluted lemon juice; I drink all of the above slowly - trying to mix them with the saliva. I keep drinking them intermittently for 1-2 days or until I desire something else, for example a warm vegetable broth (first made only from one kind of vegetable, then made from more than one kind). Then, I usually start drinking water - diluted vegetable juice, followed by the undiluted veg juice, and then I add some pulp to them. I drink all my liquids slowly to allow them to be mixed with the saliva.

After 1-2 days from the exit from the fast (both Water Fast and a dry fast), I usually have a spontaneous bowel movement (BM). However, to make sure that my bowel is truly free from any toxic wastes created during the fast, I usually consume a special drink that promptly provokes BM. I soak overnight the following dried fruits: raisins, apricots, plums and figs. In the morning I put all the soaked fruits and water, in which they were soaked, in a food processor to change them into pulp. Then, I add to the pulp plenty of warm or cold water and drink all the mixture. Happy BM!

I understand that you are referring to the Filonov's suggestion that a dry fast should be broken differently than the Water Fast and that, instead of diluted juices, a protein rich food should be consumed ASAP to awake the pancreas.

I have never tried to introduce this specific idea into my life because I am afraid to consume protein dense food too soon after any kind of fast. I simply follow the same rules to break any of my fasts. My rationale is as follows: Because my every day diet does contain many protein rich food (since I do not eat any meat and dairy products, and limit my protein- dense- foods to avocado, nuts and seeds, quinoa and some legume), I am not going to consume a protein rich food during such a vulnerable period of time as the exit from the dry fast is.

That is why I do not accept the Filonov's recommendation in regards to the way how to break the dry fast.

I introduce the protein rich food that I consume not earlier than 6 weeks after the breaking of my fasts.

Love,
Anne

I translated this from a russian forum, how to break a 3 day dry fast :

Day 1:
- At the dawn of the language clean, cleanse the mouth with your finger, then chew up 1.2 medium apple (cucumbers can be used, a crust of bread with garlic), champing to knock your taste buds, chewing all the teeth, wipe the apple whole mouth, tongue and palate, a drop of juice inside, all the spit!
- Rinse mouth with water, gargle, pray, cross yourself, ask God for blessing on a new life to serving people, goodness, truth, God.
- Crossing the water and made 3 sips.
- 30 minutes - 7 sips.
- Even after 30 minutes - 9 sips.
- Even after 30 minutes - 12 sips.
- After 1 hour, you can drink a cup of herbal tea.

- Before lunch, drink water infused with dried fruit (dried fruit itself is not, they can be at the 2 nd day of release).
- Then, after the 2 nd cup of herbal tea you can start to drink freshly squeezed juices (Fresh), optional - they can be thinned with water. If it is not a juicer at hand, it sucks the juice out of apples, oranges, etc., tire toss.
- After lunch - fresh vegetable juice (compositions can be found at goltis.info). Celery juice while it is impossible, only the next day, beet juice is not more than 20%.

How do you break a Dry Fast of shorter duration? In other words, what do you have for Breakfast every morning? If the short fast is broken properly, the longer fast can be broken the same way. I prefer 16-ounces of fresh Vegetable Juice......WY

I personally only broke long dry fast once, since my last 9.5 day transitioned to water it was no longer a dry fast when I broke it. I will however use Dr. Filonov's sistem this time.

Here's how he breaks dry fasts for his patients and recommends it to others as well.

Day 1. You break your fast with a glass of water which you drink for 10 -15 minutes, mixing sips with saliva and swallowing. Then you can take a cool shower followed by a warm bath during which you can drink another glass of water.

Next you make a "compot" by boiling dry prunes and dry appricots without sugar, then drinking the liquid. You can drink that all day.

Then 2 hours later you can have a glass of kefir (www.lifeway.net/).

Then 4 hours later home made veggie soup but without salt.

In the evening you can have some herbal tea with honey or more of compot

Day 2 Breakfast: You can start with some liquidy buckweat or oatmeal with a little bit of olive oil if you like and honey, herbal tea.

Lunch: Fish broth, buckweat or oatmeal, compot, salad

Dinner: Steamed veggies, buckweat or oatmeal, herbal tea, honey,

Day 3 The same as the second day but you can start adding little bit of salt. You can also start having fruit juice.

Day 4: Same as day 3

Day 5: You can add toasted whole weat bread and whole fruit.

After day 5 he says you can start eating normal but ideally for the first 2 weeks focus on veggies and fruits.
