5 Day Juice Fast Recipes
My program on Vegan Bundle
Some quotes from my fasting book
“The speed at which ailments can heal during a fast in particular is incredible. It's amazing how many problems just go away. I had a mole on my arm that fell off during one of my juice fasts. My sinuses totally cleared up during a liver flush. You may find that an achy shoulder suddenly feels normal again, or a skin tag or little patch of weird looking skin vanishes completely.”
Why does juice fasting have such curative power?
Your body can focus on healing rather than digestion all day.
Antioxidants bind to toxins and carry them away.
