”Fasting is the most powerful of all tools for cleansing the body. Most people ingest, as part of their diet, preservatives, insecticides, lead, arsenic, medication, and nicotine. Their bodies accumulate toxic waste products from wrong and/or badly combined food and from excessive eating. The body has a limited capacity to eliminate the toxic load. When the accumulation starts to interfere with proper function, the body sends out warnings: aches, pains, visible signs of disorder – it is time for housecleaning!”

”The aim of fasting is to rest the body so that the vital force, which normally would be used for physical activity and for digestion & assimilation of food is freed for cleansing and healing… A fast of one day a week should be part of a healthy regime.”

Warning signs from the body:

1. Unclear head, frequent upset stomach, aches & pains, and menstrual cramps
2. Chronic constipation… inability to concentrate, uncontrolled temper, offensive body odors
3. Continuous tiredness… The more toxic one is, the more sleep one needs
4. Sallow, aging skin, dull or bloodshot eyes, and insomnia
5. Addiction to sweets, coffee, cigarettes, and starches. Overeating
6. Waking in the morning with a stuffy nose, mucus in the throat. Acid, bitter or salty taste in the mouth.
7. Coated tongue from years of mucus-forming foods
