part 2 Fasting

Part two – Thank your fat for trying to protect you from toxins

Those fat cells are protecting the body by choosing between the lesser of two evils. Since survival is the #1 goal of the body mechanisms that fat is going to remain until you get rid of the toxins.

You fast for 2 days. You don’t take in anything but water. Your body burns up a lot of fat cells and muscle cells and releases the quarantined toxins. No problem, you are drinking lots and lots of water and those toxins are down the drain.

If you have never fasted, you would do well to go on a juice fast rather than just water. Your bowel is stuffed with old rotted food and you will need some help to clean it out.

You will need to add a pro-biotic to your daily supplement intake to replace the good bacteria in the bowel. (Note – when you buy the bottle of capsules, once you open them you need to refrigerate them. The store should have a fresh supply and keep them refrigerated before you buy them. Otherwise you are taking a dead pill. Taking a pro-biotic on a daily basis is a good idea. All viruses are eliminated from the body by either vomit or stool. A healthy bowel is a fast way to move that virus out of your system.)

OK, back to the fast. You go back to food but not what used to be “normal” food. No fried stuff, no starches, no sugars. You start with a little soup with a clear stock. Would that be chicken noodle? You add some fresh fruit and vegetables. Humm says the body. Don’t need any fat cells – no toxins coming in. After two days you add in some protein from fish or red meat. You should be taking in enough calories to support your daily life but not your fat.

Or – you go back to regular food. Body screams in alarm. More Fat Cells, here comes the poisons. Protect the body, protect the brain, and protect the vital organs. Slowly the systems begin to degrade and heart disease and joint disease and brain disease gain foot holds. The results of bad diet are inevitable. You can only get from your body what you give it. The old computer saying is just as true for the body – Garbage In …Garbage Out.


A fast is a jump start to health. In the never ending quest for health, a routine weekly one day fast can be as important as that daily vitamin and mineral supplement.

Are you taking herbs to try and reverse a disease? That is a little like the prescription the doctor gives you to treat symptoms. You want to eliminate the cause of the disease and that involves your diet and environment. The herbs should be used to help the body repair itself and they will if the body’s environment and nutrition are cleaned up. Keeping symptoms at bay is not the same as eliminating the cause of a disease.

Even with the perfect diet, your body is bombarded with toxins from pollution in the air. The air quality of your home in most cases is worse than the air quality on a freeway. Newer homes are air tight and hold everything inside. Heating and cooling systems require that windows and doors be closed.

If you are not running a good quality (and they are not cheap) air cleaner in your home, please consider opening the door and an opposite window to freshen the air.

You track into your home all the outside crap on the bottom of your shoes. The Japanese knew what they were doing when they required the change of shoes at the door.




The dust in your home is partially made from dead skin cells. We won’t go into the dead bugs. Those dead skin cells contain the toxins released during the sweat process. Leave that dust lying around and you just breathe those toxins back into your body. Oh no, now we have to clean the house as well as the body.
