Re: Day 25 WF: Detox or Autointoxication?

lol I prefer to fast in the winter, the heat can cause more dizziness, make you sweat more easily and makes dehydration a factor if you aren't very careful with water, especially making sure you take plenty with you wherever you go. Animals more naturally fast in winter, ourselves included, when there is often less food around. We would stock up on our bountiful harvests in Autumn but also eat plenty in preparation for a long winter. Fasting at other times of the year is usually a response to some trauma or injury. In our case diseases of civilisation. :)
The lower body temp and shivering are normal. Your shivering response is keeping your extremities warm it's when you stop shivering you need to worry. But throw some extra bed coverings on if you have them, no need to suffer unduly.
I think the skin eruptions are a natural effect of ending a fast 'early'. Fasting to completion or till REAL HUNGER sets in again would naturally avoid any post fast detoxification, but without supervision I feel it is safer to lead up to this grand even than to attempt it while so many other obvious cleansings need to take place first. We are breaking a fast early so we are unavoidably breaking it while there are still toxins in the system on their way out. They have to go somewhere- maybe some return to where they came from, but some are too far out maybe and cause things like skin eruptions. Another post fast symptom I've had in the past was muscular pain. Very slight pain, most like flu symptoms than anything else though flu pain is more to the bone. The 'pain' was not more than discomfort really, didn't slow me down at all but told me very plainly that the detox in my body was definitely not complete.
Good luck getting some sun. :)

Take care,
