Fasting is one of oldest and effective way of burning huge amounts of accumulated waste products in the body. Previously, people used to fast by drinking water only throughout the day. Experts say that fasting on juices, both vegetable and fruits is much gentler and beneficial in normalizing all body processes.
Juice fasting involves intake of juices diluted with water every hour or two from morning to night. Avoid taking solid foods or other kinds of liquids, especially canned juices if you are on juice fasting. The total juice intake in day should be about 7-9 glasses.
Vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, iron, calcium and enzymes contained in these juices supply much need nutrients for body's own healing activity and thereby speeding up the recovery process. While on juice fast, ensure that your bowels are flushed out regularly.
Juice fasting is known to have many advantages. It is the safest method to detox one's body by cleansing and eliminating those cells and tissues, which are dead or damaged. It reduces the cholesterol levels; treats symptoms of allergies, acne, and headaches by flushing out toxins making one feel good and healthy.
Juice fasting can be done with almost any fruits or vegetables that are eaten raw. Best veggies for juice fasting are tomatoes, cucumbers, celery and carrots. A combination of apple and carrot juice or apple and tomato juice i.e. a combination of fruit and vegetable is healthy and nutritious drink. Huge variety of fruits and vegetables can be used in combination or separately gives the body its daily calories and enhances health.
First, peel the off skin from vegetables and fruits. Rinse in filtered water. After extracting the juice, dilute it with water in equal parts. Make sure that your juicer does a good job of extracting the juice. Consume the juice immediately after extraction.

Centuries ago, before medicine, drugs, pharmaceuticals, and alcohol - often the culprits behind a human body that is unhealthy today and killing bodies from the inside - there was not nearly the need to detoxify and fast. As frightening as this may sound, our bodies usually are stronger and capable than we think, but its our own behavior that that determine if are healthy or sick, unfairly sucking life from our longevity. Do you know that the human body has a positively amazing ability to detoxify itself? It's true and it's a good thing too, because the majority of of us eat or absorb too many dangerous toxins and ingredients that in effect, begin choking your body, on a fairly regular basis.
If you eat healthy meals, are interested in pursuing a healthy living and you don't smoke or drink alcohol in out of the ordinary quantities, your body is better equipped to clean out and cleanse, detoxify and expel the toxins - in fact, you may be completely clueless about the dangers that you are eating in your everyday diet - that you eat all day long: breakfast, lunch, dinner and all snacks or meals in between. If you currently smoke or your diet is largely made up of fast food, processed ingredients, artificial ingredients, international cuisine, foods from questionable environments, or the American favorite, junk food, your body is likely overtaxed and desperate for help.
If you are constantly tired to the point you think you might have 'Chronic Fatigue Syndrome - CFS', you're experiencing consistent lapses of forgetfulness, lack of concentration, or perhaps, you often are sick, catching a flu, susceptible to allergies, and catch practically any virus that shows up where you work, you might very well need a health check-up, tune-up, some easy fasting and detoxification, the almighty cleanse or a quick body detox, or worse, you may need to have your health checked from head to toe.
People with such symptoms certainly would benefit from studying how to detoxify your body.
Those who have adopted a regular routine of fasting and detoxification, either singularly or in combination, have testified to renewed energy, a clearer head, feeling better, boasting to their doctor with surprising turn-a-rounds, but the benefits of fasting and detoxification are many, too many in fact to cram into this health article.
True, there are a whole bunch of health benefits to going through a fast or body detox, but there are also side effects and to be honest, they can be as serious as death if you are not aware of this fact and ignore such 'medical', or health warnings. I'm not kidding. There are droves of people who are quick to publish and print in health magazines, health forums, or health articles about fasting and detoxification benefits extracted straight from the news, too often labeling it as the ultimate diet pill, or the "miracle" in a bottle, so to speak, that will fix all symptoms, ailments and health problems from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet.
But, few even realize, perhaps why the so called experts never bother to publish anything about the down side, or the things that can go horribly wrong after or during a body detox - in all honesty, it can lead to your death - killing you, if you aren't crystal clear about the word "death".
