Re: First 5 day water fast
I read your 46 hour post above. It sounds like with your IBS you have candida overgrowth. Fruit is the best food but with you it is better to eat lower sugar foods like tomatoes and cucmbers (non-sweet fruits). For people with IBS, they should drink a lot of carrot juice. Dr Walker treated 40,000 people with colon problems. One guy (out of 40,000) was so bad, he had him consume only carrot juice (no other food) for a year. If you do not want to make it, you can buy the powder and add it to juice or water. To see one product, see the HEALTH FOOD STORE on site below. You can take an enema before your fast so you do not have all the stuff in your colon. It does not get re-absorbed unless you have holes in your colon (IBS). This site has info on enemas and Dr Walker: Enemas.
Also on that site, see NATURAL HEALING AND DEPRESSION. It tells about (bottom of page) a guy healing his Crohn's disease which is an IBS. The best and fastest thing for healing IBS is dragon's blood. Since it is from the Amazon rainforest, it is called by its Spanish name, sangre de drago (blood of the dragon). It is the sap of a tree that looks exactly like blood coming out of a cut. You can rub it on bad cuts and it stops the bleeding (due to a glue-like resin in it). Then it accelerates healing. I guess it heals the holes in the colon in a similar way but it does work extremely well with IBS. People in the rainforest will also use it for internal bleeding since they are hours away from hospitals. See this site for more info on it: Amazon Herb Products Put curser on NEWS AND RESOURCE CENTER (upper right) and click on HERB INFORMATION to see info on this herb.
