As great as fasting is for health, several people's first

reaction when it is suggested to them is the weakness they

may experience from low blood sugar considering the absence

food. Though it is an important factor, there are some tips

one can implement to prevent or alleviate such an experience

from fasting.

 

 

Now, I was discussing with a friend at work about the issue

of juice and water fasting.

 

 

Incidentally, she is a Christian so she knows what fasting

is all about at least from a Christian or spiritual fasting

point of view.

 

 

She told me that as much as she may like the concept of

fasting for cleansing the body, she always worried about her

blood sugar levels while fasting and felt that about the

only way she could be successful at it was if she took some

days off to be away from even the mildest of physical

exertions.

 

 

She is quite correct.

 

 

However, from my experiences with Christian and juice

fasting, if one uses the following fasting diet or juice

recipe it will be safe to say that one's blood sugar level

while fasting would not be too low, consequently weakness

may not be experienced in excess.

 

 

First, here are the necessary ingredients.

 

-Grade B Maple Syrup (Organic preferably)

 

-Organic Valencia Oranges

 

-Chilled Water (distilled, reverse osmosis or filtered)

 

 

The basic recipe is this

 

 

For each medium size to large orange and 2.5 (or slightly

less) oz of maple syrup, add enough cold water to make a

pint's worth of juice.

 

 

The Genuine Maple Syrup has a balanced mixture of sugars

(unlike honey, which is a big no! no!) and when thoroughly

masticated (the fasting juice that is...) it is released

with even more ease into the blood stream, consequently it

makes the blood sugar levels while fasting more leveled

out.

 

 

Admittedly, one may feel a little tired now and then, that

is more of a detoxification symptom rather than fatigue as a

result of a low blood sugar levels from fasting.

 

 

This is why to slow the immense detoxing down, it is best to

consume adequate (if not exclusive) amounts of fruits and

vegetables to build an alkaline reserve in the body.

 

 

These will also serve as intestinal brooms and moreover,

initialize the detoxifying so by the time you engage in a

juice or even water fasting session, you will be much

cleansed for the process.

 

 

So don't let the fear of low blood-sugar levels scare you

from a fast when needed, with the tips above, you will

definitely be just fine in using a fast for improving your

health.
