So how much weight did you lose exactly?? And what did you weigh before and after the fast??

[yogayak]

Don't know and don't know :) I will discuss this subject in some of the videos coming up and in the post fast videos.  I think I mentioned in one of the prior videos that I did not weight myself this time. love and light!

It is possible to make money with fasting. It just might be for the upper middle class or higher: water or fasting cliniques/retreats in a beautiful setting with the optional on-hand masseuse, aroma therapy, yoga, meditation, counseling...I mean if there are colonics retreats, this is next in line. I would actually like to open one up or work there to just witness people being rejuvinated and watching people purify themselves emotionally and physically. I may do that someday.

Thank you for this video. Empathizing with emails regarding fasting for weight loss; I wouldn't fast for weight loss myself - but for all the reasons outlined by you and lorax2013. Heading there with a raw vegan cleanse now, to start with 2 day fast, then three. Raw vegan may be (might be) a more slow way to release toxins, than a full-on fast. Thanks again for all your video sharing.

Are you or were you referred to as Medicine Man?

@monoxygen2012 How would u release toxins more slowly?

[borisbmx]

fasting is helpful for "excess" in the body.. but at the same time it may complicate a deficency state. I doubt you are that healthy and have deep reserves to benfit from fasting for more then a few days. Instead i would concentrate on nurishing whole foods such as meats, beans, nuts-seeds-avocadoes, roots, true whole grains, chinese herbs to feed the organs. Perhaps mostly mono-meals of all the above to promote better digestion.

[monoxygen2012]

the reason ppl think its crazy is because it can b dangerous on a all water fast cuz u release the toxins in your body too fast and it can cause pblms but otherwise good job on the fast and i hope u feel better but beware it can b dangerous if u have a LOT of toxins in your body

i like how you overlayed lorax and you into a single frame. What tool did you use to combine the two video images?

[AlterEgoTrip]

P.S. about the e-mails from young people who are interested in fasting.. (who are in my opinion too young) they would first have to be much OLDER (in my opinion because I see the growth of the human into adulthood ending at about 27-29 in most people) I see fasting as the other step forward AFTER dietary changes and raw foods... this way after many years on such eating, you have become at least less toxic. I can assume if its for the right reasons, there is time enough to wait.

[AlterEgoTrip]

The fact is that the reason why fasting is a threat, is because it challenges the medicine/surgery line of "the only treatment is..." where as, I personally discovered that fasting was better than a dose of tetracycline for 40 days. I would rather now take a fast than take any antibiotics now (as long as it wasn't something that was going to suddenly kill me).

I am glad I have access to some really good water from its natural source as well :D Thanks for your inspirational series.
