How
is your fasting program different from other programs?
According
to the purists, ours is not a real fast, as we take fruit
& vegetable juices as well as vegetable broth along with
herbs, vitamins, minerals etc. To the purists, fasting
means only water. However the Swedish Dr. Ragnar Berg, long
our world's foremost authority on nutrition and biochemistry
stated. " During fasting, the body burns up and excretes
huge amounts of accumulated wastes. We can help this process
by drinking alkaline juices instead of water. Juice fasting
is therefore the very best form of fasting." Furthermore
with the herbs we cleanse the entire gastrointestinal tract,
the Clysmatic (a gravity type
colonic) cleanses and stimulates the lower intestine, various
treatments 5 days a week assures the elimination of toxins
and the balancing of your entire system, the sauna cleanses
through the skin, and the Yoga and Meditation facilitates
the purification of the mind and the spirit. All of this in
a most serene and pure setting.
Will
I not be terribly hungry, not eating for so many days?
No, with
all the and juices and broth taken, you will not feel hungry.
Without
solid food, will I not become extremely weak?
No,
you receive direct nutrition with the juices, and in addition
to the powders and herbal pills taken to eliminate toxins,
you will receive supplements to keep your energy level up.
As a matter of fact, after a few days you will
probably feel more energetic than you have in ages.
Is
this an easy program?
For
some people, it is not only easy, it is a joy! People
who have fasted before, say it is the easiest fast they
ever did.
Will
I lose a lot of weight?
It
depends. If you are too heavy you will definitely lose
weight, but if you already are at your optimum weight
you will probably not lose too much. It varies from
individual to individual. People who are too skinny
and afraid of not having regular meals, have experienced
that although they lost weight during the detoxifying
program, after the purification they gain
weight in all the right places, eating less, because
of their new ability to assimilate nutrients.
Will
it help me to stop smoking?
Absolutely!
With the elimination of nicotine toxins from your system,
your craving for cigarettes will also end. We
know of no program more effective in breaking the habit.
Will
I have a healing crisis?
Very
unlikely, although each person is different. It appears
that the effective elimination of toxins as the body
begins to detoxify is instrumental in avoiding a healing crisis.
Will
fasting cure my... (migraine, allergy, cancer, etc)...?
Fasting
in itself does not cure anything, but it is a means
of permitting the resources of the body itself to take over,
to effect healing unmatched by any other method. |
