Post Fast Juicing Regimen, Day 5

Today is my last day for the juicing regimen. The program I followed the last four days is actually is a type of fasting – juice fasting. Think infomercials and their blender products. The best way of course is to make your own juice, but if you haven’t eaten for 32 days; opting for buying organic juice and heating up to a simmer to cease the pasteurization process will suffice as well. The overall benefits of juice fasting is significant and I’m using this type of fast to reintroduce my body to nutrients and to wake my digestive system up.

Since I fasted for 32 days, I’m only juicing for five days and not the full seven. I had intense diarrhea yesterday and I’ll probably experience the same today as well. That’s a good thing.

Actually, I’ve been waiting for it.

I’m ready to reintroduce my body to food and move on. I’ll eat a 99% vegetarian diet and consume fish for its high content of omega-3 fatty acid as well as protein, but no other kind of animal or animal products. This way I’ll still be able to cook the foods I love like shrimp gumbo and other seafood. I’ll search for the highest quality at Whole Foods, but unfortunately organic seafood is not certified by the USDA. Most of my new diet will consist of raw fruits and vegetables and vegan products.

The variety of vegan products on the market is remarkable. Tofu, Tempeh and Seitan are great substitutes for meats and can be flavored to be quite tasty. I’ll still enjoy breads, pizza and other favorites as well. I bought some vegetarian bread for my kids and they love it.

I really enjoyed sharing my 72 day journey with you and appreciate all of your heartfelt comments and encouragement along the way – thank you.

God Bless.
