    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.
