Re: How long to fast for healing?

Nadia, a lot of what you are saying really hits home with me, I have been taking those supplements, and a few others, trying to heal my gut. I had been suffering from chronic constipation as well. I will focus on a lot of the advice you gave and read that book. I have a very hard time with meat... What are your thoughts on vega protein powder? I usually add greens, blueberries and coconut oil.

Once every few months my body screams for meat so I'll eat chicken. I can't do it regularly though...

I want to repost this question. Not sure if I totally screwed up my water fast. I really sense its not time to stop quite yet.

"Ok so last night after reading about the adrenals and fasting being hard on them, I went and did my adrenal support vitamin injection (b12, methylfolate, biotin..., maybe it's a b complex), stopped before fasting. After doing this Is it imperative that I start incorporating juice today? Will my body go into starvation mode if I do water a few more days? After the injection I felt so much clearer, and slept through the night for the first time on this water only fast."

nooneinp- Thank you for that information! Very interesting. Shorter fasts are easier than doing lonnnng ones . I wonder if that is something I should do. I might rather focus on fixing my lifestyle and diet first before I attempt more fasting. To be honest fasting is something I could only find the willpower for when being guided to do it. Fasting is not something I have ever wanted to do, It was just such a strong push in my heart. I guess its a little early to say since this is my first time! Maybe fasting will be a new direction.
