Thanks so much for your rich and thoughtful response.
Several things you have said gave me pause to stop reading and think. You are welcome to expound on them if you like. If you are busy, that is fine too. I know this forum can be very time consuming.
You say-
"Hygienists understand that in all circumstances a) the body knows exactly what to do and always does the right thing, b) the only thing that can heal the body is the body itself, c) we can only barely comprehend the complicated inner-workings of the human organism, the millions of decisions and adjustments that are made every second and we should therefore trust the body to manage itself free from interference."
I believe this. I have battled pinworms since I was a child. Wish my parents had fasted me, if it will get rid of them. I can get the itch to go away for long periods of time, but sooner or later, they always come back.
I also caught hep C in my 20's, but I didn't realize it until it nearly killed me in 2002. They say 50% of the people who are exposed eliminate the virus without getting sick. I suppose the reason my body did not do that is because my immune system was already compromised by the pinworms. It was simply too much to deal with. And I knew nothing of fasting.
Thanks for the links. I have bookmarked them. I have tried staying on a strict macro-biotic diet for two years and then I switched to raw foods for a while. I got soooooo chilled on raw food. I was cold all the time and shivering. My acupuncturist said I needed some cooked vegetables. Indeed, as soon as I had some vegetable stew, the coldness and my shivering went away. Was I missing something in my raw food diet that could have kept me warm?
I love the bonobos.
You say-
"Perhaps you've already removed the causes but just need the thorough rest to undo the existing damage before you can start a new life full of health and vigor."
You really know how to trigger the tears! How to get the rest you need when you have to work in order to keep a roof over your head or they will evict you an you will be sleeping in your van, which would be even more stressful and much less restful...
You say-
"Hygienists provide the body with an environment that promotes health to include pure air, pure water, a wholesome, species-correct diet, exercise, rest and sleep, relaxation and gainful employment (paid or otherwise.)"
I wish a hygienist could figure out how to help me find paid gainful employment that was less stressful, as the work I am doing causes me to teeter on the brink of wondering whether or not life is worth living. I think that is why I keep relapsing. I am just not yet grounded in the notion that I really want to be here because the stress of acquiring enough money to live comfortably is so great.
I am not sure what to think of parasites. Part of me thinks they cherish and cling to a healthy host even more tightly than a sickly one, because they get more nourishment from healthy blood than sickly blood. And the viruses are truly mysterious, like tiny technological machines... Because I tried to fast in the 90's and could barely move, and this time has been so much easier, after I have done so much systemic cleansing, I am inclined to think some people may be too sick to fast, and they will need to remove some of the toxins with herbs and enemas before they are ready to turn the job over to the body. Does that sound logical? (And I was strict macro the last time I tried fasting, had been for a while.)
Right now I am torn between the fear of stopping before my body has had a chance to gobble up this knot that is swelling up in my soar plexus, fear that it might get stronger if I stop fasting and start feeding it nothing be really good stuff, and fear that if I don't stop fasting and get back to work (dread the thought) I won't have the money to pay my rent... As always, between a rock and a hard place.
