Every woman knows what diet is. There are countless detox or weight loss diets. No one has not done a weight loss treatment at least once in her life. But curative natural fasting, especially as a method of self-treatment has almost nothing in common with the diet for sustainable weight loss.
Overweight people, to whom doctors have prescribed a massive weight loss to avoid an illness, not to aggravate an existing illness, are not allowed to follow a post-cure preceding weight loss, except under supervision.
The curative naturist fast involves temporarily giving up solid and liquid food with nutritional value, instead drinking water or herbal tea (green tea, matcha, ginger tea, mint tea, mouse tail tea, horsetail tea, dandelion tea, nettle tea, and black tea), in large quantities (up to 3 liters) so that the kidneys can continue to work. The body can eliminate its metabolic waste through urine or sweat.
Naturopathic Healing Fasting: How Many Types Are There?
In principle, there are two forms of fasting: the naturist cleansing fast of short duration (1-4 days), and the long-term fast, which can last for several weeks and should be followed in a specialized clinic. However, you can also do the short purifying naturist fast at home.
Some of the effects that the cleansing naturist fast has on the body:
Stimulation of organs of excretion: Overloaded with too many carbohydrates, fats, proteins, artificial food additives, polluted products, pathogens, and toxic metabolic wastes, organs of metabolism and excretion (skin, kidneys, gall bladder, liver, gastrointestinal tract, bladder urinary tract, and uterus) often function poorly. A lack of nutrition relieves these organs and stimulates their functions.
Detoxification of the body and elimination of residues: In the absence of a nutritional intake, the body has the opportunity to disassimilate and eliminate unimpeded everything that loads the metabolism until then, producing, or aggravating, possible diseases with a nutritional component, such as metabolic dysfunctions, rheumatic symptoms, gout, arteriosclerosis, senile diabetes, chronic inflammation and tumors.
Melting of the fat layer in the body: When the body is no longer supplied from the outside, it has to convert to another form of energy capture to maintain the functions indispensable to life, the brain, heart, and metabolism. After about two or three days of fasting, fatty deposits from different tissues come to the fore, in women, especially in the region of the knee pads, thighs, buttocks, hips, abdomen, back, chest, arms, neck, and face. Where the fat deposits start to disappear depends on the individual’s predisposition. It also depends on the possible mobilization of the respective body area through exercises (gymnastics, sports, or yoga), only under supervision and at a very low intensity. If you are interested, here are some yoga exercises for beginners.
Strengthening the immune system:
Detoxifying and eliminating excess solids and liquids allows the body’s immune forces to restore itself. Mental and psychic peace: It has been proven that a wrongly conceived diet, altered by the toxins of the environment can block brain functions, and decrease the power of concentration, memory, mobility, intellectual reactivity, and creativity. You may also feel mild depression and fatigue. Attention, after a few days of fasting, the famous fasting crisis sets in, which seems to contradict these statements. But the sensations of dizziness, headaches, fatigue, depression, etc., are just signs, proving that the body has started its detoxification activity. These shortcomings disappear after a few days and are replaced by a general good mood, sometimes even euphoria,
These are some of the benefits that the cleansing naturist fast, which most of us observe before the holidays, can offer you. Instead, be careful how you do it and take into account that you cannot do much physical effort because the body is weakened during this cure and you may experience unwanted incidents.
