- Natalie: I would like to fast…how can I create a support page? Is this where I can ask questions? I completed a 22.5 day fast April 3. I was only drinking water. I was living in New York City and continued my part time job while fasting. It was one of the best times in my life. I think I...
- Tom Coghill: Can you fast and take Benefiber, or a stool softner, or even a colon cleanse? I would skip stool softeners are you have no stool to soften. LOL or the Benefiber as they are mucus forming ( mostly psylium )but any colon cleanser is good.

- Tom Coghill: Amber White, Fasting detoxifies the skin and it is common to get pimples or a boil during the fast. It should clear up soon.
- Fasting- How Much Juice or Water Per Day (350)
- Tom Coghill: Hi Angel, Yes, your brain will be useless for about 5 days. Try juice fasting. The body will adapt but it usually takes about a week for the mind to get the fasting boost of mental clarity but it comes and goes.
- Angel: Hello Tom, I started a fast today, thinking of going for 10 days. I am a writer, I work from home. Do you think this will affect my mental performance?
- Kimberly: Thanks for all your advice. I’m planning on spending the next week preparing my body for my fast, and then Monday the 11th I’m planning on starting. Hopefully at some point I’ll be able to come back and report some awesome results. =)
- Tom Coghill: Hi Jim, You now have the truth. Fasting or the Bible or living is not about living by rules but following principles, and healthy practices and perfection in that is impossible so do what you can and feel good about it. Fasting pulls in a lot of radically minded people that can turn...
- Tom Coghill: Hi Kimberly, All fruits and vegetables are good except papaya, banana as they do not juice very well and bananas are to rich in carbohydrates and become more of a diet than a calorie reduction.
- Tom Coghill: Hi Jim, With a 2 day fast you do not need to break a fast slowly. Eat a salad to push through any mucus deposits that were expelled from the intestinal wall. Celery is great for that. You are off to a good start.
- Kimberly: Last question. Do you think there are any certain fruits or vegetables that aren’t good to use for a juice fast? I read you shouldn’t use bananas, but other then that and ones that obviously wont taste so great, are any that I shouldn’t use for any reason?
- Scott: Hey Tom, How goes the adventure? I’m curious about the detox center? Maybe you can share some of your experience there. I wanted to make a comment about fasting and what I have experienced so far. I have read a vast amount of information about fasting. Do’s and Dont’s,...
- Jim: Tom, Thank you for all the useful information on your site. I plan on doing my first 7 day juice fast starting next week. Two days after breaking the fast I will be going out of town with a group of friends for the weekend. Though I still will maintain an already healthy diet when I go away,...
