| The Pleasures of Eating are Fleeting The Treasures of Fasting are Lasting The Road to Health is Paved with Good Intestines |

| Why Fast? Fasting is a powerful means to detoxify and rebalance the body systems. It has been used for centuries to clear stored toxins out of the body, increase energy, promote well-being, improve health and increase longevity. Fasting is more critical in these modern times, where our bodies, minds and spirits are bombarded with record levels of poisons from many sources. Most diseases can be traced to our depressed immune system and imbalances. Our body can't deal with regular daily digestion and complex toxic elimination at the same time. During a fast, the energy used for digestion is freed up for healing. Fasting is like "wringing out a sponge of dirty water". It can be compared to pushing the reset button on a locked up computer - starting a new cycle of restored balance. God designed our bodies so that, during a fast, the garbage is burned first. By cleaning out the body, fasting has been known to help heal and/or prevent many diseases. It clears toxins from the blood and purifies the body on a cellular level, supporting all the glands and organs. It helps eliminate unwanted materials from the body such as dead, dying diseased cells, fatty tissue, trans-fatty acids, excess mucus, cholesterol, and other embedded toxins. It also helps eliminate parasites. Fasting accelerates tissue-regeneration, normalizes vital functions, clears the mind, rejuvenates the body and much more. It deals with the whole person, body, mind, and spirit. Some of the many conditions we have seen improved by fasting include: Allergies, Agent "Orange" toxicity, arthritis, chronic fatigue, cancer, congestive heart disease, depression, sleep disorders, IBS, Crohn's, colitis, constipation, gastric reflux, ulcers, hypoglycemia, diabetes, candida yeast, fungus, fibromyalgia, infertility, gallbladder disorders, migraine headaches, pain, inflammation, sinusitis, parasites, lupus, hormonal imbalance, overweight, thyroid, skin rashes, eczema, psoriasis, sinus and respiratory problems. We do not claim that fasting is a "cure all". However, it is a valuable part of a long-term lifestyle change that can resolve the root cause of many symptoms, Rather than medicating the symptoms that are produced by imbalances, we should be grateful for those warning signs and should seek the underlying causes before a crisis is manifested. |
