I plan to exercise some days so I’ll keep up the juice on more active days.

One last question, is fresh and/or plain packaged coconut juice OK to drink on a juice fast?

That is up to you. Once a day is good to kill hunger and the fasting feels better, maybe due to less toxins in the colon. The longest you should go is 3 days.

How much juice? What do you want. More juice more energy and the fasting is easy. Less juice less energy and more rapid detox and weight loss. If I have to work I drink a few liters a day. If laying around almost water fast with a few small glasses. Mixing gives a greater range of phytochemicals. But catabolism heals. The juice supports the process. The body will heal on any juice.

Tomorrow I’ve booked myself in for a colonic (erghh!) and I’ve ordered a 2litre enema. How often should I have these. Some say have a colonic every week, others only on day 2. As for enemas, some say every one or two days. I’m confused?

Today I began a juice fast. I only have the time to do it fore 16 days before I have 3 days to gradually get into ‘normal’ eating before going overseas. I recently did a 3-day fast and lost over 2kg. I think I have a reasonably fast metabolism i.e. if I combine food properly (important for me) and keep the calories down I lose weight quickly.
My first question is how much juice to drink and in what combintations? I’ve read so many different reports from books and online with some amounts as low as 4oz per day and others as high as 24oz per day. Others say just have some when you’re hungry i.e. listen to your body.
Second, I’ve also read that you need to know which ingredients to combine for the best results and weight loss. I’m hoping to lose 7-8kg. Is this correct?
In terms of what I usually juice, I combine a bit of fruit for taste and goodness (apple, berries, cherry, pear, grape or occasionally pineapple, watermelon, nectarine etc.) with celery, green leafy vegies as well as a bit of others things like zucchini, squash, snow peas, sprouts etc. Also, soon I can begin adding fresh wheatgrass (I’m waiting for a delivery in a few days).
Your sage advice would be a great reassurance. The longest I’ve fasted before is 5 days (water) and 3 days (juice). I’m hungry but already feeling better.
Thank you 😀

If you are 50 lbs or more
over-weight I would suggest twice per week. Again, depending on your body weight, the quantity of the swf
is usually a quart/liter of warm water to a leveled tablespoon of sea salt. You can add lemon or lime for a
“slightly” better taste. Try to finish drinking the swf mixture within 20 mins. If you sip, it might not work
as well and get absorbed into the body instead. I usually take 3-4 big gulps within 10 mins. That works for me.
There isn’t much that makes me queasy, but the swf gets that award! Enemas are also important during a fast.
2-3 per week will do the trick.

I have a question about the salt water flush. i drank the quart but it felt like too much. so when i do it i drink 2 cups or slightly more because it feels like it gets the job done. is that okay? or should i drink the whole thing because that’s whats really going to work. and how often during my juice fast should i do a salt water flush? I’m going to start a 2 week juice fast tomorrow maybe longer. i have done a 1 week juice fast in the past and a few days here and there. Should i do a salt water flush everyday? or every other or just a couple times is all i need? I’m just worried about toxins sitting in my system. Thank you 🙂

I am 28 years old and have two badly injured knees. I’ve torn both acls and have arthritis in one knee. I’m going to do a 30 day green juice fast to help promote healing. Have you ever seen anyone have success with ligament damage? Thanks!

I would try an enema first as that can reduce the pain quickly. Higher toxin levels in the colon can enter the lymphe and somehow and trigger pain at the lower spine.
But the kindneys are also affected by higher toxin loads. If the pain is higher up and 3 to 5 inches from the spine then you need to slow your detoxification rate of break the fast and do a series of short fasts.
Have you had any kidney problems in the past. For you it is better to have lots of sweet juices to slow the detox.
Old back injuries have a tendency to become painful during the fast due to healing.

Tom

I’ve been reading your site a lot lately and have a question that has been touched upon a few times. I am on my 4th day of juice/water fast. I had juice for the first 2 days and then water for the 3rd. End of the 3rd day I experienced extreme lower back pain. I feels more like its in my kidney region than my back. Slept only a few hours last night. I thought maybe it was a reaction to only water so I had some juice this morning but still about the same. Any ideas of how to get rid of it? It makes to very hard to sit for even a few min.

Thanks!
