fasting

[lilylily]

do you have fasting days?

[Pailani]

I don't. I'm nursing a toddler and wouldn't want to take a chance of disrupting her milk supply.

Also, I believe that, given the right foods, the body can heal itself over time even without fasting. Fasting might speed the process, but I'm not really in a hurry and I have faith that I'll get there eventually just by putting the right fuel in my body. I don't feel an urgent need to speed up the process.

My understanding (through reading books) is that if you fast 12 hours a day (usually while sleeping) then that is enough to clear you system and let it reset for a new day. I try to stop eating around 7pm and eat breakfast 12 hours later.

I struggle with fasts. My blood sugar goes up and down way too much through a day. But I believe there is nothing wrong with a once a week fast for those who can do it.
