One day fast
    #6898450 -

Well I'm 22 hours into my first one day fast, and feeling pretty good. Concentration and awareness is very high, it's almost like the come down off a psych trip. I have researched the benefits of fasting for one day every week, and many people notice definite mental and physical benefits including brightened mood, less anxiety, more immunity to physical and mental disease. I also read somewhere that this increases dopamine levels in the brain - certainly feels like it!

Not eating for 24 hours isn't a very hard task. Unless your thinking about it I guess. I can't even count the number of times by super time I'll realize I haven't eaten yet that day.

I guess fasting might remove unnamed "toxins" from your body. But not drinking water just seems silly to me. I'd at least drink distilled water because it's essential to all most if not every bodily function.

Routine and consistent healthy eating have always made me feel the best.

Drinking water is fine during a fast... for longer fasts I would probably drink juice. I think it is healthy to allow the body to breathe, give it a rest from all the food it constantly processes. And I think that fasting can help me to maintain a healthy diet, or give me more motivation to start eating healthier you know? Just like how it is supposed to help overcome addictions.

I like fasting on Sundays; I sit in my room and read and do yoga, and usually experience states of consciousness that are very pleasant and fascinating. :thumbup:

“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

I was on the lemonade diet for awhile. Basically, it's a 7-day fast where all you eat or drink is this nasty drink of lemon-juice, cayenne pepper, and maple syrup. The point of it was to remove all of the antibiotics and toxins from my body. However, I had to do it for seven days... I don't think that fasting for one day would remove all of the toxins from your body. Not saying that it's a bad idea, it's just not that good.

YIPPIE!
