- Tom Coghill: Lynette, The question ” how much weight will I lose” has been asked a few hundred times on this site and I no longer answer as the formula is complex at best a guess and the best way is to fast and see what you lose.
- Tom Coghill: Hi Tara, If you can exercise that will increase the weight loss. Walking or swimming are good.
- Tara: Hi Tom, I have been on a single juice and water fast for 24 days and have lost 16.4lbs. I feel this is low. How can I speed up my slow metabolism while fasting. Is it possible? Thanks, Tara
- Lynette: Hello to everyone, Tom, my question to you is: How long would I have to juice fast to lost 70 pounds? I have been reading about water fast and tumble across juice fasting and decided to do a juice fast. Being as though I have so much weight to lose, I was thinking that a 30 day juice...
- Chosing a Juice Machine, Juicer Review, Comparison (4)
- Tom Coghill: Hi Kim, The Vita-Mix 520 seems like a good machine but it is not a juicer. It is a high powered blender and you would have to filter the juice. Not sure it is the best for juicing for fasting. Fiber is good when eating but slow down detoxification during fasting. Blending leaves in...
- Kim: Hi Tom, I wondered if you knew anything about the Vita-Mix 5200 food processing machine. It claims to, “use one-tenth the produce you would with a juicer (and about one-tenth the effort of juicing)…saves time and money…releasin g hidden nutrition…only found deep w/in...

- beaches: It always makes me smile to see people worried about asking a doctor about juicing or fasting. I once asked a doctor why my kids were sick. Is it anything to do with what we’re eating? He laughed and said no. I still went to the library and pursued it and found books by the...

- Tom Coghill: Hi Monte, You would need a chicken farm to keep up with 300 eggs a week. I found that the protien requirement for weightlifting set by the manuals is way to much and hard on the body especially the liver. Try 10 egg whites a day. More affordable and easier on the chickens.
