Hello Mouseclick and Rob,

true hunger is experienced at the end of a complete or finish fast where the bodys reserves are exhausted or almost exhausted, and where the body will demand nourishment or starvation (feeding on the internal bodily tissues) will set in. This is an unmistakable demand, much like thirst when dehydrated.

It is indeed true that the body will feed mostly on fat reserves with minor muscle loss during the fasting process, and where this is also true in adopting a high-nutrient-plant-based-diet post-fast, where the body will rid itself of excess fat and the weight of the individual will stabilize into "normal" levels.

A plant-based-diet of 70% raw and 30% cooked (or thereabouts) will allow the body to eliminate toxic residues within the body, and where the fast is much more expedient in achieving that goal; but after this has been achieved, true hunger will be experienced like never before. True hunger is diminished by toxemia as the body is concentrating its energies on elimination rather than on its normal bodily functioning and where as Mouseclick has already said: that food tastes are real and better than ever.

We should also distinguish between what Fuhrman (and for that matter Natural Hygienists) have stated as "Toxic Hunger" and "True Hunger".
Toxic hunger has these common symptoms..........
Headaches, Weakness, Stomach cramping, Lightheadedness, Esophageal spasms, Growling stomach and Irritability.

True Hunger does not experience these symptoms at all.

People who eat healthily do have food reserves to enable them to fast, it is that they should not have excess weight or excess food reserves: even the thinnest of people will still have some food reserves to enable them to fast in times of emergency such as food shortages and/or illness/injury.
Sufficient food reserves do NOT mean therefore that someone is overeating at all.

A clean metabolic system which is free from toxemia will enable anyone to experience true hunger, as the body was designed to. We should also bear in mind that it was the custom for centuries to eat only one meal (sometimes two) per day, where true and genuine hunger would be made manifest...........usually at lunchtime and NOT at the traditional time of "breakfast". Sleep for example does not create calorific expenditure, and where it is only activity/exercise that creates this demand for food. This was Paul Braggs experience, where he was quoted as saying........."you must exercise to earn your food".
Sedentary occupations and lifestyles will therefore demand LESS food.

Regards

Chrisb1.
