Re: coconut water fasting...

hmm, maybe a coconut water fast,  that is, a 'cleanse-and-nourish-feast', could cure you of the sweets addiction.

There's nothing wrong with 'sweets' though, is there, as long as they are the natural kind, in moderation - as opposed to the frequent, huge macadamia and date concoctions some raw food people get into.

And yes, a glass of carrot juice (for example) can also be a real destabilizer, or "fix" for some people, some of the time. I had a large glass a few days ago (I am not currently water fasting) and it was too much, too quick. Threw me off and made me crave bread, and then protein--which was exactly the sort of see-saw that the food of my childhood got me into. Very important to chew one's juice, too. :-) I remember learning years ago, and promptly forgetting it, that carrot should only be about a quarter to a third of a glass of juice, the rest being greens.

I too always had low blood pressure, was diagnosed with hypoglycemia as as child,and had a brief foray into street drugs at 15.(I retraced some of the tastes and sensations of that time, while water fasting) It was my first Wfast of 29 days that appears to have straightened out the tendency to hypoglycemia and headaches. Used to get them a lot. But I think equally important, looking back on the last ten years of cleansing and all, was remineralizing with whole food supplements like blackstrap molasses and kelp. I have no faith at all in the isolated elements approach.

look at everything that's in coconut water though--very similar to human milk, which,if people look into, has low amounts of protein that are entirely adequate to build a human being. I tasted my own milk when I was nursing my son, and was surprised at how much like coconut milk it is--halfway between the water and the milk, I'd say. So, we are 'sweets' people naturally, but we've been drugged into the fabricated kind, and then poisoned and imprisoned with their bromides, etc. etc.


I would love to live on coconut water for a few months.( even better, in a place with moderate temperatures, peace and fresh air. It is (all) mostly hard to come by here, and expensive.
