There is a high chance that fasting can dissolve the blood clot. It would take at least 21 days. Your blood thins as soon as you are off food and drinking juice. I have a fasting retreat in the phillippines if you want to come out.

Great website. I am looking do a water fast. I have been diagnosed with Budd Chiari syndrome, which turns out is a fancy name for a blood clot blocking the portal vein from my liver. They are wanting to install a shunt to reroute the blood, which doesn’t look like anything more than a band aid until a liver transplant, which are hard to get and very expensive. My question is will a water fast dissolve this blood clot and how long would something like that take? I am guessing it will, but will take an extended fast of 3 to 4 weeks. Any input is appreciated. Thanks Craig

It seems there is no definitive way to rid our bodies of heavy metals. But, we know that our organs collect most toxins in our bodies. Also any inflammed areas of our bodies are like magnets for toxins. Fasting is good for the removal of toxins…but good natural herbs and select foods are better as a vehicle for the heavy metals. Cilantro or Corriandar is one herb that is linked to heavy metals removal in the body.

I would also suggest foods that stimulate the liver, kidney’s and other organs. Such as: Milkthisle herbs in tea, for the liver. Olive oil and lemon are very good for the gallbladder. Hydrangea root, and Marsh mellow root, as well as black cherry extract are great for the kidneys!

Other than that, prevention of further contamination is the best thing you can do. As far as the sores. I didn’t see anything in my research mentioning sores as a symptom. That could be a virus or allergic reation to the chelator meds. Nowhere did I see that using chelators were recommended. It is highly speculative that they work at all. And should only be used in extreme toxic cases where nothing else is working. Only a doctor in the field would know for sure if this would pertain to your case.

I hope this has helped you to some degree. Hopefully Tom will chime in at some point with more info for you. Ron

I have had urine tests each summer which show I have high levels of lead in my system. This is due to the fact I have worked overseas in polluted environments. I have tried using a chelator (from my natureopath) and selenium during my fasts (5 days on 10 off) but now I seem to have developed a reaction to it (I get these herpe type sores). What is your experience with getting rid of heavy metals?

Shaun

Don’t know where in this site to post a comment for you. Hi again, I started longer fasts about 5 years ago with the support of you and this website and I am a fan! I do at least 2 long ones a year and have cleared several medical issues with the use of fasting….in addition to getting much more centered. I am on day 7 of a 40 day fast again. I was just in the Philippines and tried to look up your center without much luck….anyway thanks for all you do!

Shaun

I’ve only been taking the medication for a week now, so it will be easy to stop. Should I wait any period of time to restart the fast?

Adderall is a powerful stimulant and highly addictive. You can damage your body taking stimulants and water fasting. You need to quit the drug and the best way is through a long juice fast. Quitting adderall is a nightmare from past experience with retreat clients addicted to this drug.

Adderall 10 mg a day
