Guest guest Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 I was wondering if anyone knows how often is safe to do a juice fast. I recently did one for 9 days (about a month ago), and feel the need for another one, 5 days or so. I felt I broke my fast too early, and didn't get the full benefit. If anyyone has any knowledge of this, please help! thanks Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last month I did 5 days, even detox baths and feeling it necessary to do it again. I fast one day a week which helps. I could use the help of a partner!

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2003 Report Share Posted April 29, 2003 i don't have a recommendation to give, but i previously did a supervised three week juice fast, which my nutritional consultant felt was a-ok -- over that duration, she felt we had to be careful about making sure that i got balanced nutrition. as i don't enjoy veggie juices, we had to do some fudging on the rawness of some of the ingredients and sneak in a few unsubstantial, but very tasty compensatory liquids. it was midwinter and very cold, so we added some miso soup and some veg. broth, for example, laced with multiple nutrients i wasn't getting elsewhere. after that, she suggested that i do a pyramid diet, in which i alternated a pure juice fast and raw, on & off, indefinitely. i did that for another month. good luck! and listen to your body. --nicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 Hi, If you do the juice diet for five days, then you have to wait five days before you can do it again. If you do it for ninety days, wait ninety days before you do it again. See the pattern?
