Hey guys,
So ive done a little searching around but cant find many answers...Im really interested in doing a juice feast...but am wondering
-Firstly, im treating myself for pretty bad candida at the moment. Im taking probiotics and Caprylic acid. Is it still ok for me to do the fast, and if so, do i still take my medication? The caprylic acid especially seems very strong and makes me rather smelly...which im taking to be detox. Im wondering how a fast will affect this
-Im pretty skinny and dont want to lose any more weight. Would a fast put me in danger of losing some?
-I dont have a juicer, but have a really good blender. Is there any reason the pulp cant be drunk? I realise i can just sieve out the pulp and just use the juice...but isnt a smoothie fast just as effective? I really love green smoothies and id happily just drink them all day long for a week or more
Oh, also im taking enzymes in hopes of taking away some really bad bloating i have. Are they needed while fasting? Would a fast help my bloated tummy or make it worse?
And one more thing! Im really not sure about the idea of enemas. Ive never done anything like that before and, well, id appreciate an alternative! Can fasts be done without using enemas at all? Would this be dangerous? (My heaths already pretty fragile)
Thank you so much everyone! I am really open to the idea of a short fast and then maybe a longer one. I really, really need some healing! So any help most appreciated:)
