Hemp seeds are a great source of protein.

Yes, you can use parchment for " wetwork " ... I first encountered it

as a way to steam fish in the oven. (when I would open it up, all

this water would be there to deal with!)

Fabulous!!! If you read the book, you will be more " tempted " to do the

fast without modifications -- you are reading the " master's words " , so

to speak!

Stanley Burroughs was a fantastic therapist. He developed this

program, which has been widely disseminated *and used successfully*

throughout the Western world.

He commented on " modifications " , as I have, here, and strongly advised

against them.

 

Reading his books on Master Cleanse can only strengthen your resolve,

*and your ability to be successful* on the Master Cleanse.

 

Let me know if you have any questions!

Put simply:

Most depression is cause by a lack of seratonin in the brain. If you

get enough protein, your body/brain will make seratonin.

EFAs also affect seratonin.

 

If you eat too much simple sugar, it will block the seratonin.

Artificial sweeteners, such as aspartame, block seratonin production.

 

Up your protein consumption, cut your consumption of simple sugars,

and make sure you are getting enough EFAs, and you should see a

reduction in depression.

 

one of the amazing things that I see in mainstream nutrition reports

these days is that " people who are overweight tend to have a lack of

seratonin in the brain. Depression is a symptom " .... as a formerly

overweight person, I know how that works... you go on a diet of

lettuce leaves... you get depressed and eat some potato chips -- which

contain SUGAR as well as EXCITOTOXINS, so you easily finish the whole

bag.. then you are not hungry for a normal meal -- of course not! You

have consumed multitudinous calories! and then you get depressed.

You eat ice cream (sugar sugar sugar) and it helps for a while (sugar)

but then you are depressed. You drink diet soda, and you remain

depressed.

Clinical depression never was a big issue until we started eating

" low-fat " -- between eliminating fats and adding sugar to keep flavor,

food had just gotten more " depressing "

 

Substitute protein snacks and foods (figure out how-- if you want to

know what I do, email me privately -- I will not post that here! no, I

am not secretly eating anything that had a mother) and snacks and

foods high in EFAs (dehydrated flax seeds are a winner! all those

vegetables called " high in fat " , like avocado, are good!), and you

should see a difference.

 

As a formerly depressed and quite fat person, I personally

to a high protein way of eating. It works for me. When I go off it,

I get fat, and I get depressed. I get depressed, and I get fat. I

get depressed because I get fat. I get fat because I get depressed.

No win.

When I eat " right " , those things don't happen.
