Re: Day 13
Minerals imbalances are very rare during a water fast... The body uses the stored minerals in a perfect balance, as needed, and even manufactures what is needed from the material at hand. That is why we should not ingest any thing extra..just distilled water.
The cramps are caused by the toxins. They are a good sign.
Fasting is very good for the heart. It helps blood pressure and cleans out the circulatory system, and the heart.
I started my firt fast because I had a very high blood pressure and even blood clots. Medication for these can cause very serious problems, including bleeding, stroke, death, etc.
because it does not go to the root of the problem. And yes, I had edema too, and was very obese.
Needless to say, those problems are part of the past. Most of them went away after my first fast (my blood clots), and my BP regained normal readings.
I took the refeeding process very seriously and change my feeding habits after it. And then a second fast, and a third one....I am in love with Fasting now.
We just have to be careful with the refeeding time, 10 times more difficult than water fasting.
