1. distilled water

My plan for today, and the next 5 days (depending on my results, and how I feel..it may be longer...)

1. I drink more warm distilled water than I actually crave. The first day of fasting, hunger is usually the strongest. I need to have something warm in my tummy to get my body used to fasting.

A friend of mine, who comes from the body building community, told me something interesting. 1 week before competitions, they fast on distilled water.

This gets rid of all bloating, and excess fat so their muscles show better.

That surprised me, because there is still really 'old school' thinking out there that distilled is bad for you.

Distilled is called 'hungry' water because of it's negative charge. It attaches to inorganic minerals and takes them out of the body. This is why we use distilled in our clothes iron, to keep it from clogging up with cal/mag/rocks from tap water.

It can't attach to organic minerals (that also have a negative charge) that make up our bodies.

It is plants' job to turn inorganic minerals into negative charges through photosynthesis. It's their specialty. We can't do that.

So distilled is a major player in detox. It's pulling out junk that clogs us up. Tweet
