    Default What is a water fast?

    Do you only drink water?

    I'm trying to eat raw, and it's been really hard with my cravings (I'm used to eating pretty badly) so I'm wondering if I should start with a fast to kinda reset my tastebuds?

    ide build up to it . something like fasting 12 hours every day , and eating some cooked whole vegan food on weekends while during week eating raw . get in that groove then keep pushing towards higher and higher raw , and longer fasts

    I agree. Any extreme transition may give you serious detox symptoms.

    Cravings are not about taste buds. They're more about emotions. See what you're feeling when you're craving. EFT has been shown to be VERY effective with eliminating cravings.
