Sometimes if I&#8217;m doing a lot of sports or exercise, I will drink a little more. I do juice fasting periodically. Usually 3 or 4 times a year for 10 days each time and also 1 day a week. Because I have fasted regularly for years now, I can usually do all my regular activities. If you are just starting out on fasting then you may have to rest more than usual or even rest completely. Once you&#8217;ve fasted a few times, the detoxification process is not so acute. You will still detoxify, but it won&#8217;t be too severe because of all the cleaning up that you&#8217;ve done previously.<\/p>\n<p>I have two types of fast that I do. One is on fresh juice &#8211; and the other is on green coconut water. I usually drink 3 to 4 twelve oz. glasses of juice per day, but someone just starting out may need more juice in the beginning. I drink different kinds of juice during the fasting day. There are many excellent combinations, for example; apple, cilantro, beet &amp; ginger; carrot and celery; celery; jicama, beet &amp; pear; apple &amp; celery; pineapple &amp; greens; carrot, celery, cucumber, parsley &amp; spinach, and etc.<\/p>\n<p>If I&#8217;m on the green coconut water, I drink all I want. The coconut water is very refreshing (please don&#8217;t confuse this with the Thai coconut water which I find to be too sweet for fasting purposes). To see a picture of the green water coconuts, look in my website&#8217;s pictures section. Unfortunately this coconut is not available everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve never fasted before it might be helpful to be guided by someone who is knowledgeable about fasting.<\/p>\n<p>Good luck.<\/p>\n<p>With blessings and peace,<\/p>\n<p>Rhio<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hookedonraw.com\/?page_id=2702\"><em><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Back to \u00a0Fasting &amp; Juicing Q&amp;A from Letters We&#8217;ve Received<\/span><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>< In a message dated 7\/19\/04 12:22:40 AM, San writes: Thank you for your email.
