i have just finished day 1 of water fasting. One thing that is bothering me is some constipation. I went into the fast with this and thought I might have a BM by now to relieve. I am wondering if it is wise to do an enema. The constipation is bothersome a kind of sharp pain at the bottom of the colon and can cause radiated pain towards the heart area. Is it okay to do this or will it be too depleting etc?
Kind Regards
Raj

This is a reply to # 1,962,326Hello Raj,
enemas are generally enervating and therefore contrary to the purpose of fasting: to conserve and rebuild your energy stores, but in extreme cases of constipation, Shelton would consent to them at the beginning of, or just before a fast.
Your pre-fast diet may have contributed to this as in not enough fibre (soluble and insoluble), but also insufficient fluid intake can cause the same.
If the constipation is causing discomfort as you say, I would undergo one. It is very early days yet on your fast, so shouldn't prove to be that much of an interference/hindrance, or affect the outcome in any significant way.
Post fast ensure that your diet provides sufficient if not exclusive use of fruits and vegetables to prevent this from occurring again.

Hi Chris
I decided to undergo the enema yesterday evening and have gained relief. As one of my symptoms is burning/inflammation somewhere in the colon I thought its a good idea to relieve this area.
Should we be bathing and cleansing our skin everyday. i don't have a filter on my shower so it would be chemical municipal water if I did?
Also when is the best time to measure my BP and heart rate. Straight on arising in the morning before drinking water? Also should I do one arm (normally my left) or both?
Kind Regards
Raj

This is a reply to # 1,962,926Hi Raj,
you will find some relief from the discomfort now you have had the enema, but I would refrain from any further enemas as they can make the bowels sluggish post-fast, plus of course they are enervating as the early pioneers of Natural Hygiene discovered with their use.
Water-Bathing is essential on a fast with some careful skin-brushing to stimulate the skin into its elimination role, plus of course you may develop body odour as when eating.
Air bathing and sun-bathing is also advisable in moderation. Both air bathing and sunbathing are considered more important than water-bathing within Natural Hygiene circles.
THE AIR BATH.

being careful not to chill or feel cold as this will check elimination and be enervating as well.
THE SUN BATH.

The quality of water is important but sometimes we have to make do with what we have. You could try a water-purifier and water-bathe by hand to avoid the chemicals within municipal tap water.
BP is best measured in the resting state such as first thing in the morning on arising: this will give you an accurate reflection of your true BP, as it will tend to fluctuate during the day in response to activity or emotional/mental stimulation.

This is a reply to # 1,962,959Hi, So its day 4
My blood pressures over the last 4 consecutive mornings have been 89/58, 87/56, 85/42, 81/49 and my heart rate 84,90,101,102. Are these okay?
My sleep is poor as it was historically over many years. Doesn't help things I guess.
Also again I am experiencing constipation with discomfort in the large colon. Im holding of doing another enema as advised.
Another concern I have is the white spots on my fingernails. I believed this was due to the zinc deficiency I had and I was taking a zinc angstrom liquid supplement for the last six months. Is there an idea if this will rectify during the fast. Is the cause zinc deficiency or can it be something else.
Thanks as ever
Raj

This is a reply to # 1,963,238Raj,
your blood pressure is quite low, but this isn't necessarily a problem unless there any SUDDEN CHANGES, either from low to high or high to low, so keep a watchful eye on it.
Sleep for most is severely reduced while fasting so quite normal. Try counting sheep. (humour!!)
Constipation in the large colon is not unusual in that the bowels mostly shut down during a fast. Post fast diet should rectify matters.
White spots on the fingernails are in many cases caused by a previous injury to the nail bed, and compared with bruises on the skin. It CAN be a zinc deficiency, but if you have been taking a zinc angstrom supplement for the last 6 months then this is hardly likely to be the cause if it hasn't cleared over such a time-frame.

This is a reply to # 1,962,326I have been Water Fasting for 7 days now, and an enema is NOT necessary. All the water you drink will wash your system clean. That's what has happened to me. I have "pooped" a bunch of times and it is water with some waste. Don't worry about it. Your body knows what it's doing. Your brain is just interfering with a process that is completely healthy and normal.
