The first fast we want to discuss is the water only fast. This fast is what most people think of first but it is not always the choice you should make when fasting. There are others that are better for your health and can be done on a more regular basis than the water fast, which is often done in extreme circumstances. Below you will see why.
Water Fast - This is a fast of water only - complete abstinence from any other liquid or solid foods. This is the quickest way to detoxify the body. However, it can be dangerous and should be carefully supervised (by your doctor or The Doctor). It gives the body a severe cleansing but will leave the body very weak. It often takes quite some time for the body to restore the strength it lost during this type of fast. The reason for this is that the body is forced to feed upon itself and its nutrient reserves, which are often low to start with, depending on the individual's own body. Lack of nourishment to provide the proper building materials need to restore and rebuild the body are essential and thus this fast may not be the best choice.
