In general the gums will tighten up while the body is in fasting mode, but will

loosen if you are eating a starvation diet indicated by hunger, typically caused

because the person is snacking on tea or vitamins. If you fast correctly you'll

experience little or not hunger.

 

however, ==DO NOT== have teeth drilled and filled while fasting!! Those

" silver fillings " are 50 mercury which is extremely toxic and the body is much

more vulnerable to toxins while fasting, it can make you very sick. It is best

to

have a glass of regular milk before having teeth drilled because milk helps to

absorb heavy metals and carry them out of the body, that is before the body

can fully absorb them when it becomes very difficult to get them out. This has

been known to lead workers for over a century and modern science has

confirmed it.

 

I'd get my teeth fixed before fasting.

If you are thirsty or your urine is dark drink more. Be sure to drink un-

chlorinated water. Distilled water is considered the best for fasting. If your

urine is very clear you are drinking too much.

 

The digestive system has to work to process water too, but far less than food.

The reason for a complete fast is to turn the body's resources completely over

to internal cleansing. But a complete fast should only be attempted by an

experienced faster. You can help the body get some of this effect while water

fasting by limiting your water intake to a few times a day instead of sipping

water all day long.

In general you should keep your first fasts short, about 3 to 5 days. With each

fast your body will get better at burning fat faster. You also need to develop

the discipline to do fasts correctly. If you do a long fast incorrectly it can

cause

serious damage to your health. Once you feel great doing short fasts you're

ready to try longer ones. You should also do some juice fasting before

attempting water fast, because you must juice fast before and after a water

fast to make it safe and effective. Eating cooked food too soon after a long

water fast can make you very sick. Eating cooked food soon after a 30 day fast

will make you dead, literally.

 

Juice fasting should be done with ONLY freshly made juice, not bottled or

canned. Only fresh, uncooked foods contain enzymes. It is much easier for the

body to convert these enzymes into digestive enzymes than it is to make them

from scratch. Cooking destroys enzymes. All cooked food is devoid of

enzymes. The reason we hear so little about enzymes from the mainstream is

because virtually all foods that can be owned and specifically advertised are

processed foods which contain no enzymes, and virtually all foods that

contain enzymes anyone can grow. There's no advertising money for the big

networks in enzymes. There's a lot of money to be made in " variety " .

 

If you are hungry while juice fasting it means your are on a " starvation diet " ,

which means your body is loosing good tissue. While juice fasting on freshly

made juice you may discover your appetite shrinks considerably. This is

because all your nutritional needs are met. It is at this point you can begin a

water fast and the body will go almost immediately into fasting mode instead

of the typical 3 days of hunger that occurs when your last meal was cooked

foods.
