A BIG NO NO!!

Holy cow!!  I thought I would be smart and go on a fast in order to detox my body faster.  If you are early in your detox.....DO NOT DO THIS!

The fast I tried was not even an aggressive one.  I purchased a juicer and lots of fruits and veggies...thought this was a great idea.  Day one was not so bad...day two was a BEE-OTCH.  Anixety through the roof, confusion, mental fog and body pain was off the charts.

After researching this I found that any kind of fast removes toxins from the body but also important minerals that are needed.  Minerals that the body relies on in order to repair itself.  

Anyway...I am now eating regular again.
