Roasted, Raw or Sprouted?

Most nuts come from the seeds or dried fruits of trees and have an outer shell that is nature’s perfect way of protecting the nut kernel and keeps the healthy fats from spoiling. Hermetically sealed the nut does not become contaminated and spoiled as does meat, for example. Unfortunately though, most nuts are shelled and oxidation begins. Worse still, these “raw” nuts are heated above 140 F and are no longer viable.

Raw (or unroasted) nuts. Raw nuts are in a dormant form and are not really alive. They taste good but maybe a little bland. They are easier to digest than roasted, more nutritious and easier to digest. Some people may have reactions to raw nuts.

Roasted nuts. While roasted nuts have a lot more flavor than raw nuts, there are some definite disadvantages to them: 1) added oils, 2) added ingredients, 3) more difficult to digest, and 4) less nutritional value.

Nuts can be either dry roasted or roasted in oil. As you probably already know, dry-roasted nuts contain less fat than nuts roasted in oil. In fact, roasting nuts in oil is a lot like deep frying—nuts are dumped into highly saturated palm kernel or coconut oils, adding about a gram of fat.

Then roasted nuts are often heavily salted and almost always have other ingredients added to them such as sugar, corn syrup, MSG, preservatives, and other additives. Besides being toxic these additives cause us to eat too much.

Roasted nuts are very difficult to digest and adding more fats during roasting makes them even more difficult to digest.

Finally, roasting destroys much of the nutritional content of nuts

and it destroys the enzymes needed by the body to help with digestion.

So roasted nuts may have more flavor than raw nuts—but at a price: your health.

Sprouted nuts, In most cases, taste better than raw nuts and because they are alive, are far more nutritious than raw or roasted nuts. They digest very easily. Spouting nuts completely changes the make up of the nut and may no longer cause any problems for the people that are sensitive to raw nuts. The process is not new. It dates back thousands of years and is still practiced today in non-meat-eating cultures where nuts are a staple food.

The nuts are soaked for 8-24 hours, causing the nuts to begin germinating. This changes the makeup of the nut from dormant state to alive state. The nuts are then removed from the water and slowly dried at a low temperature.

While much more time-consuming, sprouting makes nuts more digestible, gives them much greater nutritional value, makes them crunchier, and best of all, releases an unmistakably fresher flavor. If seasoning is desired, spray with liquid aminos and sprinkle on Spike Seasoning (dried veggies).

Spirulina Info https://www.realrawfood.com/spirulina-info/ https://www.realrawfood.com/spirulina-info/#respond Fri, 29 Aug 2025 21:11:36 +0000 https://www.realrawfood.com/?p=55600 Spirulina Benefits
Spirulina has all the health benefits of any nutritious whole food. It is packed with protein, phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals.
It’s often taken be people who lack a good source of protein in their diets, such as vegetarians. It’s even been said to ward off several types of cancer, especially mouth cancer.
Rather than take synthetic multi-vitamins, many people take Spirulina tablets. The nutrients in this healthy blue-green algae are more easily assimilated than the rock-hard combination of man-made vitamins and minerals compressed into vitamin tablets. Plus Spirulina’s nutritional profile is perfectly balanced by nature.
Spirulina is being called that “food of the future”, as it’s such a concentrated form of nutrition. It contains so many things that are beneficial to your health. Things like helpful fatty acids, phytonutrients, chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals and protein.
NASA has even been studying Spirulina as a food for it’s astronauts. When traveling into space, weight is an important consideration. Spirulina has more nutritional value than most other foods by weight. In fact, 1 pound of Spirulina contains the same amount of nutrients that are found in 1,000 pounds of assorted vegetables!
With so many people starving in the world today this healthy, fast replicating algae might just be what the world needs to solve it’s problem of food shortages. Spirulina can be produced quickly in man-mad pools wherever the weather is favourable.
Besides all the vitamins and minerals in this algae, it also contains important trace minerals. Trace minerals are necessary for health but are needed only in very small amounts.
Another great benefit of blue-green algae is that fact that it’s packed with chlorophyll, which helps remove toxins from the blood . S. has a very high concentration of bio-available iron and is excellent during pregnancy and for those with anemia and will not cause constipation.
Spirulina is also a great source of phytonutrients. Just one of the many phytonutrients Spirulina contains is called phycocyanin, a super potent antioxidant and immune booster.
Spirulina powder and tablets are becoming very popular with the weight loss crowd. It is a great source of protein and free of sugar and carbs. It is a powerful appetite suppressant and taken over time, will reduce your body weight.
Some studies have shows that this type of algae may help treat anemia for the undernourished. It also has the ability to remove toxins and heavy metals from the body. Spirulina is a great source of GLA (gamma-linoleic acid) which helps reduce high cholesterol and triglyceride levels and is healthy for the cardiovascular system.
Spirulina is helpful in reducing inflammation and may be helpful to people who suffer from arthritis and some allergies.
Spirulina is believed to help treat type two diabetes, as it can lower blood sugar levels.
One little known benefit of taking a Spirulina Supplement is it’s ability to protect and heal the body from radiation. Children of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster were given large amounts of this algae to restore their health after the accident.
So, if you are looking for a great source of natural, healthy nutrients, you may want to give Spirulina a try.
Spirulina contains vitamins B-1(thiamine), B-2 (riboflavin), B- 3(nicotinamide), B-6 (pyridoxine), B-9 (folic acid), vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin A and vitamin E. It is also a source of potassium, calcium, chromium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, selenium, sodium and zinc.
Spirulina contains many pigments which may be beneficial and bioavailable. ORAC score of over 24,000
high in calcium with over 26 times the calcium in milk helpful in allergies phosphorus content makes it helpful as part of a tooth remineralization regimen.

    How to take Iodine https://www.realrawfood.com/how-to-take-iodine/ https://www.realrawfood.com/how-to-take-iodine/#respond Fri, 29 Aug 2025 16:50:48 +0000 https://www.realrawfood.com/?p=55399 The correct procedure for using Magnascent Iodine is as follows: Put one or two ounces of water in a glass and, using the dropper provided, drop the desired number of drops into the water. Drink the resulting mixture within a few minutes. The mixture becomes activated when the iodine is dropped into the water and is active for the next few hours inside the human body.

Our iodine is best taken mixed in water only (not juice or other liquids) and taken 15 to 20 minutes before meals or on an empty stomach. Each drop of 1% Magnascent Iodine equals 0.2 milligrams of iodine. This is approximately equal to the daily recommended allowance for the average adult. Our 2% Magnascent iodine has twice as much iodine in the same amount of liquid.Each drop contains 0.4 milligrams of iodine.

    This is our recommendation for a person using our iodine as a health supplement in order to get the minimum iodine needed for healthy body functioning. If you, like many others here in the U.S., feel that you are deficient in iodine, 5 drops of 1% Magnascent Iodine is one milligram and will help correct the level of iodine in the body of one who is deficient in iodine. For efficient use of Magnascent iodine, we recommend that you divide your dosage of iodine into two or three doses per day, rather than just one large dose. This is because the body uses it for a period of two to three hours before it loses the nascent state; therefore, dividing up the amount gives it a longer time to be active in the body.

    We cannot give individual medical advice on how this iodine can be used. We cannot give the amounts to take for treatment of various health conditions, but we will relay what other doctors have found to be effective, and your healthcare provider can assist you based on that. Many people find it useful to swish the solution around in the mouth before swallowing to assist with healthy gums. Taking it in the evenings may interfere with your sleep.

    Mixing the product in juice or other liquids may cause the iodine to be ineffective in the nascent state and negate the purpose for taking nascent iodine. Our iodine starts as a tincture with the iodine simply a molecule, but after going through the magnetic field for a long period of time, we feel that it is active in the nascent state which is an iodine atom. Because the thyroid must put iodide into the nascent state prior to being used, we don’t feel there would be advantage if we included an iodide in our supplement.

    Our product can be used topically, on the surface of the skin, for skin abrasions.
    Ingredients: Alcohol, Iodine.

    Iodine Kills Candida https://www.realrawfood.com/iodine-kills-candida/ https://www.realrawfood.com/iodine-kills-candida/#respond Fri, 29 Aug 2025 15:47:13 +0000 https://www.realrawfood.com/?p=55392 In vitro susceptibility of Candida albicans to four disinfectants and their combinations.

    Abstract
    AIM:
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility of seven strains of Candida albicans to four disinfectants: iodine potassium iodide, chlorhexidine acetate, sodium hypochlorite and calcium hydroxide. In addition, all possible pairs of the disinfectants were tested in order to compare the effect of the combination and its components.
    METHODOLOGY:
    Filter paper discs were immersed in standardized yeast suspensions and then transferred to disinfectant solutions of different concentrations and incubated at 37 degrees C for 30 s, 5 min, 1 h and 24 h. After incubation the filter paper discs were transferred to vials with PBS and glass beads that were then vigorously shaken for dispersal of the yeast cells. PBS with resuspended yeasts was serially diluted 10-fold. Droplets of 25 microL from each dilution were inoculated on TSB agar plates and incubated in air at 37 degrees C for 24 h. The number of colony-forming units was then calculated from appropriate dilutions.
    RESULTS:
    C. albicans cells were highly resistant to calcium hydroxide. Sodium hypochlorite (5% and 0.5%) and iodine (2%) potassium iodide (4%) killed all yeast cells within 30 s, whilst chlorhexidine acetate (0.5%) showed complete killing after 5 min. Combinations of disinfectants were equally or less effective than the more effective component. All C. albicans strains tested showed similar susceptibility to the medicaments tested.
    CONCLUSIONS:
    This study indicates that sodium hypochlorite, iodine potassium iodide and chlorhexidine acetate are more effective than calcium hydroxide against C. albicans in vitro. However, combining calcium hydroxide with sodium hypochlorite or chlorhexidine may provide a wide-spectrum antimicrobial preparation with a long-lasting effect.

    In 1953 Dr. Orian Truss discovered the devastating effects of antibiotics in an Alabama (USA) hospital. During a hospital round Truss was intrigued by a gaunt, apparently elderly man who was obviously dying. However, he was only in his forties and in hospital for four months. No specialist had been able to make a diagnosis. Out of curiosity Truss asked the patient when be was last completely well. The man answered that he was well until six months before when he had cut his finger He had received antibiotics for this. Shortly afterwards he developed diarrhea and his health deteriorated. Truss had seen before how antibiotics cause diarrhea. It was known that Candida was opportunistic and thrived in debilitated patients, but now Truss wondered if it might not be the other way round, that Candida actually caused the debilitated condition.
    Truss had read that potassium iodide solution could be used to treat Candida infestation of the blood. So he put the patient on six to eight drops of Lugol’s solution four times a day and soon the patient was again completely well. Soon afterwards he had a female patient with a stuffy nose, a throbbing headache, vaginitis and severe depression. To his amazement all her problems immediately cleared with Candida treatment.

    How to Decline Vaccination https://www.realrawfood.com/how-to-decline-vaccination/ https://www.realrawfood.com/how-to-decline-vaccination/#respond Thu, 28 Aug 2025 22:40:22 +0000 https://www.realrawfood.com/?p=55372 How to LEGALLY Decline a Vaccine: 1. Do not REFUSE a vaccine otherwise you will be considered a belligerent. Instead you can politely decline their services by doing the following: 2. Ask the Doctor if the vaccine contains MRC-5 in it (they all do, these are aborted fetal cells and other DNA) If it does, you have the RIGHT to decline. 3. Ask the Doctor if there is the possibility of “Lactogenic reaction” (an adverse reaction caused by multiple compounds or drugs interacting with each other) from the vaccine (they all do). When the Doctor says “yes it does”, that is your “get out of Vaccine Jail Free Card”. Thank you the Doctor for the offer and walk away. Remember, Doctors have sworn an hippocratic oath (which is to do no harm) and they MUST honor it. This is how we can Legally (and respectfully) decline their offered mandated services, and there is absolutely NOTHING they can do about it! Now you know. Vaccine Ingredients: MSG, antifreeze, formaldehyde, aluminum, glycerin, lead, cadmium, sulphates, yeast, proteins, antibiotics, acetone, neomycin, streptomycin, mercury, monkey kidney, dog kidney, chick embryo, chicken egg, duck egg, calf serum, aborted fetal tissue, pig blood, horse blood, rabbit brain, guinea pig, cow heart, animal viruses, insect cells, silkworm DNA, etc

    GOODBYE TO TOOTH CAVITIES! GUM INFECTION IS NOW ENDED!

    by Dr. Gerard F. Judd, Ph.D., Chemistry and Fluoride Researcher

    May 5, 2001

    I now place in everyone’s hand the complete answer to tooth cavities. Following this procedure there will not be one more cavity, one more gingivitis case, or one more fluorosed, brittle, cracked tooth in the world. Bad teeth in Ireland, Canada, the USA, Britain, Australia and New Zealand will now be curbed. The 55-year fight with fluoride promoters (dentists) in these countries is over since research now establishes for certain that fluoride makes the teeth WORSE and not better (refs 1,2,3). My book, Good Teeth, Birth to Death lays out in no uncertain terms all the detail to achieve my claims.
    I have talked to thousands of people about their teeth, many of whom have perfect teeth. In all those cases of perfect teeth, the practice of rinsing while eating has been the reason, and not fluoride. I am convinced that perfect teeth have little or nothing to do with genetics. The best way to have perfect teeth besides staying away from greedy or incompetent dentists is to pursue the following behavior:

    1. Rinse acids off the teeth during eating (ref 4).

    2. Brush the teeth with bar soap (ref 5).

    3. Take calcium pills with vitamin D daily (ref 6).

    4. Take monosodium phosphate daily (ref 7).

    5. Take freshly made sodium ascorbate daily for gum connections to the teeth (ref 8).

    6. Dispense with the worry that bacteria harm teeth: THEY CANNOT (ref 9).

    7. Dispense with the worry that sugar destroys teeth. I find sugar has little or nothing to do with cavities (ref 10).

    8. Avoid all fluoride products. They destroy teeth, unravel enzymes and cause 113 ailments (ref 11).

    My 117-page book, Good Teeth, Birth to Death (Call 1-623-412-3955 for a copy delivered to you after which you will return $15) covers the perfect teeth subject thoroughly including the fluoride controversy. It is a product of thousands of hours of research. The index alone is 41 pages.

    (ref 1) J Pub Health Dentistry, Nov 1993. This article states we have a tooth decay epidemic in the US since 42% of people over 65 years of age have no natural teeth, 44-year-olds have an average of 30 decays, 17-year-olds have an average of 11 decays, the blacks and the poor are twice as bad as this and the American Indians have four times the tooth trouble. American Indians have free dental care, and have had since almost the beginning of fluoridation. If fluoride helped prevent cavities at a rate of 80% per 15 years as the proponents of fluoride claimed in the beginning of the early studies of the forties, US residents would now have less than 2 cavities per person (my calculation).

    (ref 2) In MediZine, V6 #2, April of 2000, the American Dental Association again states that a dental epidemic exists and 42% of those over 65 years of age and 25% of those over 44 years of age have no natural teeth. They admit their ignorance as to why.

    (ref 3) 4 curves representing a total of 480,000 students and covering over 30 years of study indicate that the increasing concentration of fluoride in drinking water from 0 to 1 ppm increases the cavities 7, 43, 22 and 10% in Japan, Tucson, India and the US (see GTBD, pp 44,45,46 and 49). In other words, fluoridation about doubles cavitation from the normal (my calculation). Numerous studies verify the fact that fluoridation of water increases cavities.

    (ref 4) Tooth enamel (essentially calcium phosphate) reacts with all acids to form cavities (see any chemistry text dealing with solubilities). The proton of the acid pulls the phosphate right out of the enamel, and fast. By drinking a sip of water along with the acid during eating, the acid reacts chemically with water immediately to form hydronium ion and thus the enamel is saved. One can use milk or coffee for the same purpose, since they are both non-acidic. Dr. Albert Schatz, Nobelist who discovered streptomycin, found several decades ago that sharks’ teeth with their excessive fluoride would dissolve just as readily in citric acid as ordinary non-fluoridated teeth, laying to rest the hypothesis that fluoride would stop cavities. The dental people (American Dental Association) pushed aside this discovery and Dr. Schatz’ discoveries regarding excessive baby mortalities caused by fluoridation in Chili, South America as insignificant. They returned his mail 3x unopened and would not deal with him.

    Some harmful acids (with pH <4) which are tart to the taste and attack the enamel include lemons, grapefruit, oranges, pineapple, kiwi fruit, tomatoes, vinegar, cider, vitamin C (especially chewable) and stomach acid. The lower the pH, the more rapidly the acids attack. Body acid (extremely weak) is insignificant in this process. Non-acid foods such as beans, bread and potatoes have no action on teeth. Worry about such foods is over. The only worry about non-acid foods is if they will crack the teeth due to their hardness. Chewing ice, unpopped corn kernels, extremely hard nuts, bones or other hard objects is not smart, since teeth do have a breaking strength.

    (ref 5) Reenamelization of the teeth occurs when they are clean. All toothpastes make a barrier of glycerine on the teeth which would require 20 rinses to get it off. A good solution for clean teeth, which I have used for 5 years, is bar soap. Wet the brush, swipe the bar two or three times with it, then brush the teeth thoroughly and the gums gently. Rinse with water three or four times. All oils are washed off the teeth and the gums are disinfected. The bacteria are killed by the soap. The teeth are then ready for reenamelization with calcium and phosphate in the diet. The enzyme adenosine diphosphatase delivers phosphate to the enamel surface. Do not use liquid soaps. Their different composition is harmful to the protoplasm.

    Reenamelization is necessary on a daily basis because the enamel leaches slightly with water as well as the bones over decades leading to holey bones and holey teeth even in the absence of acid attack. Without reenamelization, we could never have good teeth.

    (ref 6) Calcium (1.2 g if it is the only source) with vitamin D can be obtained from Walgreens at a very reasonable price of about 5 cents per pill. Other required vitamin and mineral requirements of the body can be found on page 56 of GTBD. Vitamin D helps to deliver calcium to its needed site. All acid-soluble calcium compounds such as calcium carbonate or calcium citrate are suitable with D. It goes without saying that calcium is necessary in building calcium phosphate teeth.

    (ref 7) Monosodium phosphate ($20./lb delivered, food grade from 1-800-344-2047) is the best supplement for phosphate since it is very pure and highly soluble in water. Simply take about 1/5 teaspoon (1 gram), dissolve it in 1 inch of water in less than a minute, then fill up the glass and drink it daily. This takes care of all the bones, teeth, DNA, RNA and at least 30 phosphate-containing enzymes which are listed on page 53 of my GTBD book. Our bodies run on enzymes and we are hard put to lose any of them. Even the brain requires them. Phosphate also regulates body pH.

    (ref 8) Vitamin C powder at Trader Joes is $9.99/lb. Put 1 level tsp (4 g) in a glass, add 1/2 tsp Arm and Hammer baking soda, add 1 inch of water, let fizz, dilute to 8 oz and drink. The compound made here is fresh sodium ascorbate. This is about 1000 x as soluble as C, and is more reactive towards antibody and connective tissue construction and viral destruction. Thus the gums knit back to the teeth, avoiding any kind of oral surgery for “receding gums.” Receding gums are nothing but gum pockets caused by toothpaste and especially fluoride, which severs all proteins because of its highly negative character. Fluoride is the smallest negative ion on earth, and consequently is the most intensely negative particle on earth. As such, fluoride breaks the positive hydrogen bonds, which hold the coils together, in proteins and enzymes.

    (ref 9) We know that bacteria have nothing to do with loss of enamel. Witness the billions of animal and human remains in the earth which have lost all the flesh and are reduced to tooth enamel and bones. It is quite evident that the teeth have been through bacterial contact but are unaffected. The same with human teeth. They cannot be affected by bacteria, because there is no carbon or hydrogen in enamel, which bacteria subsist on. Study of streptococcic mutans as a source of so-called “decay” is a waste of government funding donated to dental organizations.

    (ref 10) Sugars (fructose, glucose and sucrose) were found in my laboratory studies to be unable to dissolve calcium phosphate to any extent, even in hot water solution. The reason for this is that the chelation process of the sugar towards teeth is slow because of the large size of the molecule and perhaps for the particular shape of the chelate formed. Sugars are not the cause of tooth cavities to any great extent, but still it will do no harm to rinse them off the teeth after consuming candy, especially the sticky variety. The adhering barrier will prevent reenamelization.

    (ref 11) Fluoride at very low levels destroys at least 66 out of 83 enzymes (p. 53, GTBD) by uncoupling the hydrogen bond linkage between the enzyme coils. Fluoride causes 113 known ailments (p. 54, GTBD). Ten of these were established through double blind studies, which although noteworthy, may be of no more significance than the individual diagnoses.

    Fluoride in the gels used (inappropriately) to harden the enamel is extremely toxic at a concentration of 13,000 ppm (1.3%). Keith Kantor of McMinneville Oregon was killed in the dentist’s chair 3 years ago by swallowing half a teaspoon of the gel. His brother nearly died from the same treatment, but was saved by having calcium gluconate administered to him.

    Three kidney dialysis patients at the University of Chicago Medical School were killed 3 years ago when nurses used unpurified Chicago tap water for dialysis. Chicago water has 2 ppm fluoride in it during the winter. Fluoridated water is lethal to dialysis patients. Fluoride is also very harmful to the kidneys of ordinary people.

    One can look up the lethal dose of a large number of chemicals all the way from botulinum and snake poison toxins to sugar, a non-toxin, on pages 57and 58 of my book GTBD. It is interesting that the lethal dosage of fluoride compound for a 50 kg man is 2.5 mg (fluoroacetic acid), and 400 mg for arsenic oxide. Numerous people, animals and fish on earth, especially in the U.S., have been killed by fluoride, but very few, if any, by arsenic.

    Toothpaste companies now are required to put warning signs on tubes so children will not consume enough of the 1000 ppm (.1%) material to make them sick or cause death. This requirement arises out of lawsuits in which children were poisoned by fluoride-containing toothpaste.

    The best available data indicates about 120,000 cancer patients are killed annually because of fluoride in their drinking water. These include patients with every type of cancer. The dramatic increase of cancer cases in the US in recent times can probably be laid directly on the shoulders of the dentists due to their tireless energies in converting city councils to put fluoride in the water for “the children’s teeth.” They are able to do this because of large government grants. It is irrational to believe just “anything” in the environment causes cancer. The unique character of fluoride ion in destroying enzymes deserves attention.

    FASTING BENEFITS https://www.realrawfood.com/fasting-benefits/ https://www.realrawfood.com/fasting-benefits/#respond Thu, 28 Aug 2025 17:39:40 +0000 https://www.realrawfood.com/?p=55333 BENEFITS OF FASTING

    Why Fast?

    Water fasting eliminates addictions, bad habits and unhealthy thought patterns. During the fast, the palate recovers its natural sensitivity to simple foods. Salt, sugar, fats and processed foods become naturally unattractive. Fasting is an ideal time to be introspective and honest with oneself. It is conducive to quiet observation of thought patterns and values. Fasting allows the body to return to it’s normal or correct way of functioning, the way it was designed to operate and becomes much more reliable in discerning what and how to eat. Circulation and metabolism improve proving better endurance. The old sick cells will be replaced with healthy cells and the whole body will be rejuvenated.

    Free your body from disease or accumulated toxins.

    Fasting is surgery without a knife. It allows nature and her healing power to take control of our being and do her cleansing and repair work. Fasting is a medical procedure, restoring homeostasis, strengthening the immune system and healing many illnesses. Virtually everyones body has pounds of tar-like metabolic waste. Fasting enables the body to remove this toxic waste. The digestive system becomes a much more efficient refinery.

    Free your mind from unnecessary boundaries.

    Fasting is also an ancient spiritual practice, withdrawing the energy from doing and transferring it into being in the moment. Fasting takes us to our truth, allows old wounds to heal, addictions to fade, and our ego to die to be reborn into our spirit.

    Fasting brings the ultimate rest.

    Fasting provides a framework in which change is effortless and comes from the deep self.

    Who can do it?

    Fasting is beneficial to almost everybody with the exclusion of a few conditions. You should not attempt a water fast alone if you:

    • have Type I diabetes,

    • have severe liver disease,

    • have AIDS,

    • have advanced cancer,

    • have renal insufficiency,

    • or if you are pregnant.

    Fasting for the first time is best done with an experienced guide in a beautiful, quiet and safe place. It’s good to get away from home so old patterns can fade away.

    FASTING QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

    Will I Feel Hungry?

    There may be a sensation of hunger for the first day or two. After that, when the body’s metabolism switches over to the burning of fats, the sensation of hunger tends to be diminished or gone.

    Will I Be Tired or Sick?

    Energy level on a fast varies greatly between individuals. Some people experience a surge in energy after a few days, but many people continue to feel low energy, as the body turns its energy inwards to heal itself. There may be one or more occasions when you feel moderately ill with flu-like symptoms, possibly even a brief, moderate fever. These healing crises are an important part of the process of fasting and detoxification.

    Will I Lose Weight?

    Fasting patients usually lose two pounds or so a day for the first week; this decreases as the fast continues.

    Will The Weight Stay Off?

    Because the body’s metabolism slows down during a fast, it is not difficult to gain weight back after a fast. Maintenance of weight loss depends on lifestyle change.

    What If I’m Underweight?

    A water fast gives the digestive system a chance to rest, and it often absorbs and assimilates better after a fast. Patients who have a hard time gaining weight generally find it easier after a fast, because the food they eat is being more effectively utilized.

    What Can I Expect Emotionally?

    A lot of emotional issues typically arise during fasting. Primal experiences arise from the withdrawal of food. Food also has a high emotional content in that it is connected with nurturance and survival.

    How Do I Get Ready for the Fast?

    The benefits of your fast will be increased, and the transition into fasting will be facilitated, if you follow a week-long, pre-fast regimen at home before your fast.

    How Do I Start Eating Again?

    It is important to start slowly and simply, with a period of raw juices first, then foods re-introduced gradually, one at a time. All Mind Your Body fasting workshop options include at least two days of food re-introduction at the end, to help you ease gradually back into food and maintain the practice of conscious eating.

    HOW TO PREPARE FOR A WATER FAST

    The Pre-Fast Regimen: Eight Days of Recommended Preparation

    Days 1-3: Avoid meat, fish, fowl, eggs, dairy, grains, legumes, salt and spices. Focus on fruits and vegetables; cooking them is okay.

    Days 4-6: As above, except all foods are eaten raw.

    Days 7-8: Raw fruit and vegetable juices only.

    It is also recommended that you meditate and journal on the lifestyle and diet changes you want to make, so as to start your fast with a clear vision.

    Following this plan for the last eight days before your fast will ease your body into burning fats and detoxifying, and make starting the water fast easier.
