3-Day Juice Fast

21 Feb 09
People i know----------friends, family, acquaintances, roommates, coworkers, in 3 different states-----------are about to embark on a little adventure together:
a 3-day juice fast. Experiences will be logged on this page.

Why? Many cultures around the world go on a fast annually, to give our hardworking digestive system, and our liver and kidneys, a much-needed break. Afterwards, people report feeling more energy and a clearer mind.

I have sent out 'info packs' to everyone, explaining 'the whys and hows,'
and in March----------------pick a day, any day!-----------------you can start yours and report back to us how it goes.

In a nutshell:

For 72 hours, you'll eat nothing, and instead drink water, fresh-squeezed juices and herbal tea.

The No's:
No exercise (cardio or weight-bearing). No moving furniture, digging ditches. No dead juices, from the shelf or from a bottle. No gum or candy, no coffee, of course. No tea from the tea plant, Camellia sinensis, such as green tea, black tea, oolong tea or white tea. (Only herb tea to drink.)

The Yes's:
Yes to yoga and stretching. Yes to going to work and school. Yes of course take your prescribed medicines on time.
