Fasting does work, and if it is done for a short, monitored period, it is effective. As part of my religious history I fasted as a child. As long as fasting is accompanied by sensible fluid intake, and a sound underpinning of medical advice, it can be used for therapy after a period of poor diet, for example. However, some people are, I believe, in danger of confusing fasting with dieting. I think we all know what I am talking about... sahail’s last blog post..Happiness - does smiling help?

I have low blood sugar, so fasting (for me) is flat out of the question. To be fair, a doctor has never told me I couldn’t fast – I simply wouldn’t want to put myself through the sickness.

I’d advise everyone to approach fasting with caution – probably the majority of people would benefit greatly, but for some of us, it might not be so pretty. I’m overly cautious with most things in life (I think it comes with the whole “mom” territory), but I think most things should be cleared with a doctor before embarking upon them. Especially if it’s something pretty drastic.

When it comes to your health, you should always look, not once, before you leap, but twice.

This article makes me feel awful about my diet. I am in college right now and all I do is eat fatty and salty foods, drink soda and alcohol, among other unhealthy practices. I have never looked into fasting, but I might try to get through a couple days and see how it goes.

When doing your detox/cleansing diet a great anti-oxidant is Mangosteen and can be used with Green Papaya Powder to facilitate a cleanse (available at http://royaltropics.com). And while getting cleaned out be sure to clean yourself with a Bathroom Bidet Sprayer from http://www.bathroomsprayers.com. You have never felt so refreshed and clean.

What is really sad now is the fact that our children are being force fed advertising that hammers home the lifestyle that will, eventually,make them sick. Or worse. I work in a school and they have only just taken salt out of the canteen. The kids haven't noticed. The menu has changed to include pasta rather than fried foods, and fruit bowls are the order of the day when it comes to desserts. Not one child has complained beyond a little grumpy episode now and then. We can't cleanse like we used to because the current state of the packaged and prepared food industry is driven by money. It is allowed to be this way because sickness and death can always be explained by the 'additional factors' argument. I myself feel guilty now for eating a pizza. You really do not want to know how much sugar and salt is in one of those... sahail’s last blog post..Respect
