1) Almost zero refined sugar and refined carbohydrate like bread, pasta, flour and etc.
2) More water
3) Vegetable and Animal food from organic source ( organic egg or vege)
4) Essential fatty acids (omega 3, 6, 9)

Good luck

THE MIRACLE OF FASTING
Set aside one day a week, preferably when you're not working, as a day of fasting, and experience first hand the many benefits that it has to offer which no other discipline can give you. No matter what your ailment, abstaining from food and water for a twenty-four to thirty-six hour hour period, will give your body the opportunity it needs to marshall all of its forces and focus on the areas of disease or stress that need the most attention. First-timers can take the twenty-four hour fast and drink water if need be, whereas experienceed fasters can go the full thirty-six with or without(better results) water. This author had shoulder arthritis pains which would not subside or go away untill after a full day's fast. Repeated fasts and a basically salt-free diet has ensured full recovery. Increased body heat and constriction during the fast work to burn, dislodge, and push out all of the impurities in your system(including stones). Fasting is the natural way to heal your body and doesn't cost you anything(except a little willpower). Longer fasts of a week or more are required for more serious health conditions, but I do not recommend these unless you are supervised by experts or are first fully aquainted with the shorter fasts. Never fast in a polluted or stressful environment or if you are pregnant, medicated, or in a precarious physical or mental state. A good time to fast is Friday sunset to Saturday sunset; this is traditionally known to Jews and others as the sabbath(Saturday) or Saturn's day. Capricorn/Saturn is the sign of fasting, while its opposite-Cancer/Moon/Monday is the sign of eating. This schedule is only a suggestion. The important thing is that you occassionally give your body a rest(vacation) and there is no better way to do this than through fasting.

Thanks Tropicality, I did a 24 hour fast but drank water this weekend and felt great ever since, I have decided to do a fast a week. It was great to give my body a rest from my regular diet. I also find days after the fast my body actually craves healthy food and much, much less salt. Thanks for the article it was exactly what I needed to see.

Thanks
Tabs
