Guest guest Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 What are the signs of stopping a fast? I read it was the return of a clear (non white) tongue. If there are others, please advise. My husband is on day two of a 13-day water fast to lower his high blood pressure. He is feeling fine and optimistic. We are both rawfooders.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Another way to tell is when the hunger comes back. Mine never left.

When true hunger returns was a criteria but keep in mind us North Americans really don't experience true hunger just withdrawal pains and a feeling in the stomach. You've cycled off some toxin elimination when the tongue clears but that doesnt mean all toxins are out of your body. But these days necessity of work and needed energy if the fast brings weakness for strenous activities means you can stop if you need to without consequences provided you don't binge when you return to eating and give the plumbing a day or so to catch up. Give yourself lots of rest on the days you feel poorly and extra sleep or naps if you can. It has occurred to me the best use of groups like this can be support. I did my first ones all by myself with no one to talk to. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
