Benefits Of Fasting

Fasting is one of the most profound methods of healing & dates back to thousands of years. During fasting the digestive organs are put “on vacation”. As digestion requires a lot of energy and more than any other bodily process, this energy usually used for digestion can be used to heal the body.


Toxins that compromise health and that have been stored in the fatty tissues of the body are released for elimination.

Some of the many benefits:

  • Extends life expectancy and anti-ageing.

  • Reduces total body toxicity therefore allowing the body to self heal and prevent dis-ease.

  • Energy usually used for digestion is redirected to immune function, cell growth and elimination processes.

  • Decreases inflammation and allergic reactions within the body.

  • Lowers cholestrol.

  • Lowers blood pressure.

  • Not only water souluble toxins but also fat soluble toxins such as pesticides and drugs are released.

  • Increases vitality.

  • Lightness of being.

  • Clearer skin and eyes.

  • Heightens senses and awareness.

  • Increases connection of mind, body & spirit.


It is recommended to fast for 1 – 2 x year for a period of 6-10days under the supervision of a health professional.
