How to Fast with Why Not® Biodynamic Juice Fasting Set

We sleep to recharge our exhausted body and we go on vacation to escape from our hectic lifestyle once in a while. However, we hardly give our digestive system a break from its highly demanding workload. The digestive system is considered the busiest system in our body especially with our accustomed overeating habit that has crept into our eating lifestyle.

Our body requires an escape from a lifelong 3-meals-a-day routine (or even six for some). Fasting gives our body an opportunity to shift the energy used for digesting to repairing and healing our body and to eliminate nasty toxins that harm us emotionally and physically. Furthermore, fasting rejuvenates our body from physical stress accumulated through improper diets, unhealthy lifestyles, emotional stress and environmental pollution.

This fasting program with herbal tea remedy and dry brushing, circulates the energy and warms up the body, enhances blood and lymphatic circulation that lead to effective detoxification.
