Fasting on coconut water ***CROSS-POSTED: ORIGINALLY FROM FASTING: WATER ONLY SUPPORT FORUM***

Hi guys,

I've noticed my previous thread has generated a bit of interest, and I noticed it's getting a bit messy and big, plus I'm worried it might be getting too off topic-for strictly pure water fasters (seeing as I'm now using coconut water).

I would love to create a new forum dedicated to the Coconut.

The more I learn about them the more I love them, and I would really like to create a central hub where people can come and add their experiences with the healing power of coconuts - be it coconut fasting, or healing with coconut oil or other coconut miracles.

I'm on day 5 of my first long fast (2 days water, 3 days coconut water) and I'm feeling great. I attribute this to drinking coconuts. I definitely wouldn't have made it this far without them, as Water Fasting does not suit my physiology.

I want to help raise awareness for people who can't tolerate water fasting, but find juice fasting too much. I think it's a great alternative, if you consider some of the benefits (and how good they taste). I've copy pasted a list of just some of these benefits at the end of this post.

Anyhow, I'm pretty new to all this forum business and would appreciate some help and advice from older / more experienced members that could give me a clue as to how to start my own forum.

Thanks!
