    LIQUID FASTING CLEANSING DIET

    Many readers of this article are already familiar with
    the important health benefits of apple juice, lemon juice,
    apple cider vinegar, distilled water, prune juice, honey,
    garlic, and fasting. I have combined all of these health
    helpers into a repeatable four-week cycle of weekly one-day
    liquid fasting diets, similar in some respects to the famous
    three-day cleansing program of Dr. John R. Christopher, M.H..

    The purpose of such a diet is to neutralize and flush
    out various toxins and waste products in the body, (in the
    cells, blood vessels, etc., as well as in the digestive
    system), which cause degenerative diseases and other health
    problems when they accumulate there. Each of the four main
    fasting fluids--apple juice, lemonade, apple cider vinegar in
    water, and distilled water--has its own unique way of
    accomplishing this. This repeatable fasting diet cycle is an
    integrated way of using important healthful items on a
    regular basis.

    The first fasting fluid, to use for the first weekly
    one-day fast, is pure pasteurized apple juice, one whole
    gallon of it, preferably NOT made from concentrate, and with
    no preservatives or additives. This is really just a one-day
    version of one of Dr. Christopher's 3-day cleansing diets.

    The second fasting fluid, for the second week, is
    basically just a gallon of lemonade. Squeeze the juice from
    two large fresh lemons into a gallon of water (use the big
    glass jug that the apple juice came in), and add four
    tablespoons of locally-made honey (NO sugar). Dissolve the
    honey by stirring it into half a glass of water before adding
    it to the lemonade.

    The third fasting fluid (for the third week) is similar
    to the lemonade, except that four tablespoons of pure apple
    cider vinegar (NOT apple cider "flavored" vinegar) is
    substituted for the lemon juice.

    The fourth fasting fluid, for the fourth and final week
    of the cycle, is a gallon of pure distilled water.

    Pick a day of the week, usually Saturday or Sunday for
    most people, when you can relax and stay close to your home
    bathroom. Start the day with sixteen ounces of prune juice
    with pulp. This will clean out your digestive system. But
    try to hold it for two hours to allow it to draw out heavy
    metals and other toxins. Starting an hour after taking the
    prune juice, drink the gallon of fasting fluid that you
    prepared on that day at the rate of ten to twelve ounces per
    hour.

    The healthful benefits of garlic may be added to the
    fast in the following manner. Each hour, slice a clove of
    garlic lengthwise into halves or quarters, and then cut the
    slices crosswise into pieces about one-sixteenth inch thick.
    Spoon the pieces a few at a time into your mouth, and use
    some of the fasting fluid to wash it down your throat without
    chewing it.

    Eat or drink nothing else during each fast, except your
    usual vitamin and mineral supplements. Also, aspirin or
    ibuprofen may be taken for the headache and other aches and
    pains that will probably result from toxins being flushed
    into your blood-stream on their way out through your kidneys.

    On the day after each fast, your digestive system will
    likely be disrupted. Therefore, break the fast slowly and
    gently. Start the day with a twelve-ounce glass of water.
    An hour later, drink twelve ounces of orange juice. For
    lunch have a glass of vegetable or tomato juice. Have a
    glass of milk in the afternoon. Eat a modest meal for
    supper. Before bedtime, take an Acidophilus capsule, or eat
    some yogurt containing active yogurt cultures, to replenish
    beneficial bacteria in your digestive tract.

    You are likely to feel hungry, weak, and very rough
    during each fast and even on the day after, especially during
    the first cycle. Self-discipline and patience are required
    here.

    This four-week cycle of weekly one-day liquid fasting
    diets should be repeated often, on a regular basis, for a
    long and healthy life.
