time for a New Years fast...


To start of the New Year and just because it's about that time, I am doing the 5 day L.O.V.E fast by Organic Avenue. I usually like to start the New Year off with a detox of some sort. In the past I have prepared food myself but this time I am going to give Organic Avenue a try. I feel it's easier to follow through with fasts when I don't have to prepare the food. It's best when the food is ready in front of me and I don't even have to think about it or go to the grocery store ect... Every morning I pick up (delivery is also an option) 6-7 prepared liquid meals for the day. The fast is for 5 days. Shouldn't be too hard, well see. Organic Avenue offers 3 levels of the fast depending on your current eating habits. Their website is also a good source for all sorts of product and information on vegan lifestyle and other topics pertaining to the environment.Fasting is good for a number of reasons. Mainly, fasting provides your body with a way to relax. Fasting also gets rid of your bad eating habits...well at least twice a year! Your body becomes more in tune with what you consume and your senses become heightened. This is also a great way to find out what may be causing skin issues. Anyway, I don't start the fast for another week or so but will let you know when completed if I can recommend Organic Avenue!

I'm so glad I've found someone else who is doing a liquid detox! I'm starting the master cleanse today! (the one beyonce used to lose weight for dream girls). I'm only attempting three days at first though and then i'll try more just before I go on holiday later this month! Good luck with your detox.

Fasting is one of the best ways to detoxify the body along with drinking plenty of pure water. Deer Park water is the best!
Also an excellent detoxifier drink is to juice carrots, celery and apples together. This will really clean out your insides. And of course, getting a colon cleanse will really take out all of the body's toxic waste. What an experience that is...and it can even help take off excess weight.
