Why must I stop eating (Solid Food) during a Detox?
The purpose of fasting is a vital part of detoxification. Eating requires a lot of energy to digest, assimilate and then eliminate food. The more energy used, the more metabolic waste (free radicals) is produced. In addition, every morsel of food produces waste and toxic substance if not eliminated properly. Fasting puts your body in a state of rest (homeostasis) and allows the body to cleanse itself of stored toxins as well as to heal, rejuvenate and restore chemical balance.
