Mung Bean Fast (Mono Fast) Fruit and tea are allowed

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam All,

 

Actually with the mung beans and rice fast YOU MAY have fresh fruit in between

meals and Yogi tea. I've done this fast a couple of times and highly recommend

it. Plus the fruit and tea make it much more bearable. In some places he says

do it for 28 days and others for 40 days.

 

Here's the exact write-up from " The Ancient Art of Self-Healing " (compiled from

Yogi Bhajan's lectures):

 

MUNG BEANS AND RICE:

 

This is a good cleansing diet. It is good for the kidneys and helps in higher

meditation. Mung beans are an easily assimilated protein. This diet will work

on the colon and the digestive organs. It is beneficial in cases of

constipation. For 30 days eat only mung beans and rice at meal times with lots

of green vegetables cooked into the same dish. Fruits may be eaten between

meals whenever desired and Yogi tea may be taken. This is a good winter diet

and is recommended for people over 40.

 

VARIATION: mung beans and rice is a very standard fast. It is a very cleansing

fast. It is a simple poor man's fast – mung beans and rice with yogurt – you

can live on it. You can live years and years and years of a healthy life and

you'll never be sorry for it.
