Now that I’m back to eating my normal super-healthy and squeaky
clean diet which is mostly organic, sans processed foods and animal products
(for now at least; I can’t believe I don’t miss chicken and eggs yet!), I
wanted to give a quick and dirty list of pros and cons I observed during and
after my fast. I hope that this offers
a snapshot of my cleansing experience. Here goes:

As you can see the pros far outweigh the cons. I HIGHLY recommend trying this out. I feel ridiculously amazing!!! I feel clean, clear and connected! It’s really indescribable! Even if you feel like a full fast is too much
for you to dive into, I suggest trying adding a simple green juice a day to your
normal diet (check out the Bite For Your Life! page for recipes regulary), then perhaps eliminating processed foods and/or animal products
one day per week while making some time for physical exercise, spiritual readings,
prayer and meditation. Try out healthy
lifestyle changes at YOUR pace. This process
worked for me, but I realize that while
we’re all created equally, we all have very
different tolerances. Experiment and see
what works for you, and share your experiences here! I’m sure all of the Starlights would love to
hear all about it!
Twinkle and Beam, Starlights!
