the body does not start feeding on muscle immediately . The liver stores fuel for the body in the form of glycogen, there is normally a 48-72 hour supply. When the supply is exhausted the body starts breaking down fatty tissue and uses ketones for its primary fuel. Muscle wasting is usually minimal as long as there is body fat to convert. True water fasting brings the body into ketosis fastest. True water fasting is water plus NOTHING, no juice, coffee, tea , sweet drinks, gum, mints, nothing but water. With juice fasting or Master Cleanse you need to consume just enough carbs to stay out ...

It sounds like a juice fast would be best for you. Since you being strong , active and clear headed is essential , water fasting is not a good idea. With juice fasting the veggie juices will give you strength and endurance , and fruit juice will provide energy. Avoid caffine and sugary drinks, at most limit yourself to one cup of green tea a day. Sweeten with fresh squeezed orange or apple juice if you need sweetened tea. If you want to incorporate water fasting, do it on your days off and rest.   [End]

I believe you madea wise choice. Almost everyone can lose weight through fasting , but most gain it back quite raidly. Usually people go back to their old eating patterns. By adopting a healthy and realistic eating lifestyle and occasional fasts for cleansing and detox you will be more likely to lose the weight and keep it off. You might want to try fasting one day a week to cut calories without lowering your metabolism. Good luck.   [End]

I can find absolutly no conclusive evidence you are Andrew Huff. There is some circumstansial evidence though. Mainly the fact that much of the article is lifted word for word from an article written by Tony Isaacs. Since you are known for cutting and pasting a post and giving someone else’s work Rs and taking credit, I can only assume the Huff article is another scam. Still I gave you the benefit of the doubt this time. I can understand why you don’t write under your real name, that person has no cred at all. However, life would be much easier if you could choose one name and stick with it.

A little while back Mo posted she was starting a paid members only Website. She hid the post not long after it came up. Since she had stopped new posts some time ago, I feel she was ready to leave Curezone to manage her new Website. People who pay to belong to a site are going to expect prompt service from the owner. We had our problems, but I wish her sucess and happiness. Anger and bitterness winds up hurting us far more than the object of our anger. Its best to let go and go on with our life.   [End]

Here are some questions I have wanted to ask for a long time. First I have been in a wheelchair for six years because of nerve damage. I am not paralyzed just very weak and no balance. Can black seed help damaged nerves and ease almost unbearable pain? Secondly, I am pre-diabetic. I have high-low swings in blood sugar. How would I take black seed for this? Finally I have huge blood pressure swings and irregular heartbeats. How can I use black seed for all these conditions, or would it even help?   [End]

You may want to repost this as a new thread, but I’ll answer here. I did my first MC by the book but later I adjusted it to my needs.

I believe people like Gov. Cristie would be better off doing short frequent fast to help resolve their food issues.

How different people are. On Dec. 31 I did a 24 hour dry fast-mostly because I was courious-followed by 20 days of regular water fasting. I never had a bowel movement and was miserable.

Keep the electrolytes handy just in case you show symptoms of low potassium.   [End]

I was the opposite. Being a ”proper” Southern lady I would never have believed I had parasites. However, I passed an 18 inch tapeworm after an enema. After crying and shaking all night I went to my naturopath and got treatment. I know parasites are very real, from pinworms as a kid to the tapeworm as an adult, I have dealt with them in the past and may again in the future. But, when parasites become an obsession counseling may be the best medicine. We must have compassion on these people; whether or not the parasites are real, the suffering is.   [End]

If you are worried it is always better to stop the fast than take a chance with your health. If you have been active try resting. Make sure you are drinking enougth, but not too much. I may seem overly cautious, but I nearly died from hypokalimia ( low potassium) and that causes heart irregularities. All water fasters need to keep some EmergenC or other electrolyte replacement on hand in case they have problems. I do hope you are feeling better by now, but take care.   [End]

There are two forms of water fasting. The long fasts are usually for dealing with chronic health problems. However, many find shorter more frequent water fasts are very helpful.Bragg suggested one day a week, three days a month and ten days seasonally. This may be what you need to help you gain more control over food habits especially while you are in school.   [End]

Good luck on your New Years fast. I hope to do my first 24 hour dry fast Dec.31. It will be a good-bye to one of the worst years of my life and, I hope symbolic of a new start. I have always been nervous about dry fasting, but last week I did a three day fast with very little fluid the third day. I didn’t plan it, but it went well. I do have a question for you; how do you prepare for a dry fast? Do you super hydrate, cut down on fluids or just start? Also, I agree with you about keeping the colon working. If your colon doesn’t function well naturally, you will never be truly healthy.   [End]

All that fat probably caused a sudden release of bile that pushed out debris. Remember long periods of low fat or no fat diets reduce bile production and eventually lead to liver congestion and other digestive problems. By the way, the diarrhea was probably caused by the high fat breakfast too. It will take a little time for your body to adjust and for you to determine howmuch fat you need for a healthy balanced diet.   [End]

I don’t know if black seeds work or not. I can’t see how they can cure virtually every disease known to human kind. I do know i will never use them unless they come with a money back guarantee .

I have to agree with Wheatgrass Yogi. It may sound strange,but the longer the fast the ”purer” it needs to be. Water plus nothing fasts seem to have less muscle wasting than fasts that include supplements. When the body goes into starvation mode it continues to seek glucose for fuel including stored glucose in muscles and organs. This is why famine victums and anorexics look so terrible. Water plus nothing stays in ketosis as long as there is body fat to provide ketones. It also allows the body to break down tumors, abcesses and mineral deposits in joints. These stored minerals erode the j ...

I suffered gallbladder attacks for years and did not want surgery. My chiropractor/naturopath guided me through a 10 day flush that worked for several months. I figured I was cured and went on as usual. Then one night I ate a single scoop of high fat gourmet ice cream and thought I would die from the pain. The next day I went on line, found Curezone and did the Hulda Clark flush. It was a miracle. It took a lot of flushes to become stone free; but liver flushing changed, maybe saved my life.

An easy way to check transit time is to eat some whole kernal corn (frozen barely warm) and time how long it takes to come out.   [End]

Good luck with your efforts. Have you ever done a parasite cleanse? I didn’t do anything about parasites until I passed liver flukes after my 17th LF. Things started getting better after that.   [End]

I agree with Chris. If you are malnourished right now a 30 day fast will do little good and might be harmful. Try spending this winter eating healthy. Get your vitamins and minerals from fruits and vegetables. That is much better than man-made supplements. If you want to fast experiment with the Bragg lifestyle fasting method; one day a week and three days a month. This is outlined in the book ”The Miracle of Fasting by Paul and Patricia Bragg. By early spring you should be ready for 30 days.   [End]

I believe incleansing by priority, that is what is your main health issue. I found Curezone when trying to find a liver clease after a painful gallbladder attack. My chiropractor/naturopath had me do one that took ten days and I needed immediate relief or face surgery. As I kept reading I got the courage to try other cleanses. Liver and colon cleanses may help you, but space them out and not too soon after fasting.   [End]

Acually I am the same way. That’s one reason I am so glad to have Curezone so I can talk and ask questions without a lot of negitivity and criticism.   [End]

Are you going to discuss your fast with co-workers? I’ve found very little support of my ”strange ways” from people I worked with. Over the years I have fasted (usually short), done the Master Cleanse, liver flushes and bowel cleanses. Most folks just don’ get it.   [End]

One night I was working doing respite care for an elderly man. I had one small scoop of gourmet icecream and thought I was going to die from the pain. The next day I found the Hulda Clark flush. That was nine years ago. I hate flushing, but its not as bad as a full on gallbladder attack. Last week I had a mild attack after pigging out on cheese. Here I go again. I hope your flush goes well.   [End]

I found I could drink small amounts of water until 8 pm when I had the last ES drink. The important thing is not to eat, your stomach needs to be empty. Do a liver flush forum search for posts by flowerchild59. She did many flushes without a gallbladder.   [End]

Its sad that women are told to get their calcium for bone health then are sold junk that is inorganic and the body can only utilize about 2%. Some bottled water brags about added calcium. I’ll take broccoli and fruit any day.   [End]

Fasting can make it easier to make changes in your diet. However, if you are an emotional eater you will probably still have food issues.   [End]

I am glad you are doing better. I have stopped several fasts early because of the pain and discomfort. I admire people who can push through it. Do you knit, crochet or do something else that will take your mind off wanting to eat? I have a huge afgan I crocheted one winter, it kept me from pigging out way beyond fasting ;)   [End]

That’s a good idea to filter the water first. I never thought of that. I use white vinegar to clean the distiller too.   [End]

Welcome to the forum. All the aches and pains are normal. Its part to the detoxing process. I don’t know about the swollen glands though. Hopefully chrisB has the answer. Are you drinking enough water. You don’t want to get dehydrated. Does your mouth feel unusually dry? edit-the right side pain may be from your liver or gallbladder. That is also normal. The chest pain may be reflux, but keep an eye on it   [End]

Every fast and every faster is different, so it is imossible to give the perfect answer. However, spending three weeks making a conscious decision not to binge, eat junk because it tastes good, and be disciplined enough to fast will make a difference. You will need to practice the same discipline after the fast ends. In time that self-control becomes automatic.   [End]

Fasting is very safe if you do it correctly. Start slow with a 24-72 hour fast. Drink water when you are thirsty, but don’t overdo it. Try to time your fast so you can rest. Be prepared for headaches and joint pain, this is normal especially with a toxic body. Keep a positive attitude, afterall, this is only for a few days. Tell yourself you can do it, because you can. Slowly work up to longer fasts. Eat a clean diet between fasts so you can keep detoxing and losing weight.   [End]

When I did my first liver flush I was having several gallbladder attacks a week. I was afraid I needed surgery. Even though I did the classic Clark flush I did not do a parasite cleanse. In fact it was my 17th flush I found a liver fluke. I believe Andreas Moritz was 100% right.   [End]

Thanks for the heads up. This is something we need to be aware of.   [End]

True water fasting is water plus nothing. This means no supplements. Spring and well water has dissolved inorganic minerals that the body cannot utilize. Distilled water is best for fasting.   [End]

What you described as a loarge stone being dislodged from your liver was probably a biliary duct being flushed clean.   [End]
