Juicing. A Fast or a Feast?

What sets apart juicing from other common detoxes and cleanses is that you are actually not "fasting" in the deprivation/starvation sense of the word. In fact, you are providing your cells with so much nutrition that your brain and your body feel satiated. This is why you will often hear it called a Juice Feast. Once you have gotten through the "Healing Crisis" stage of your cleanse, you will begin to feel quite satisfied. Your energy levels will be at their max. Your thoughts will be clear. Your mood will be steady. You'll have a healthy response to stress. The fog will lift. Annoying and irrational cravings will leave because your cells are not starved for nutrition. And in some cases, if you have a chronic disease and have juiced for a significant length of time, you may even begin to see an absence of related symptoms that are more serious.

Last night I heard Obesity described as a disease of starvation and malnutrition. Kind of ironic, huh? The body never feels nourished because it is bombarded with processed foods, empty calories, chemicals, pesticides, and other toxins. The hormones that signal hunger are confused and continue to tell the body that it needs to eat because it is seeking the nutrients it was created to thrive on. Overweight people eat and eat to satisfy hunger on a cellular level. The result is an energy imbalance. Coupled with a sedentary lifestyle, more food is consumed than is expended and when energy is not used it is stored as fat. This is what causes the common American condition called obesity, which 63 percent of adults can claim as their own. 

Eat to feed your body; not your stomach or your emotions and you will finally feel nourished and full.
