Re: bought my fruits for 5 days

Rice and fish are acid forming foods. It takes hydrochloric acid from the stomach to digest it AND it burns to acid ash in the body. That little bit you ate probably undid what you'd done all day with good eating.

I see it differently regarding undoing all the good ND did by eating fruits the rest of the day. She is still better off eating fruit for most of the day than she was before.

I find that if I try to change everything at once, I give up.

Anyone that is eating more fruit is on the right path.

Of course eating just fruit is the ideal. But if other foods must be eaten, which happens with most of us, the best time to have them is at the end of the day (unless doing fruit juice fast, i.e. 7-4-21 days etc.), when acid-forming foods will stop the fast).

The other foods will stop the fast but still, the body has had a few more hours to naturally cleanse itself.

I like to do a daily fast. My habit is to not eat breakfast and have only fruit juice and fruit / fruit smoothies for as long as I can during the day. I've noticed that I feel the best when I delay eating other foods until after I get home from work.
