WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY, EAT. FAST ONLY WHEN YOU ARE NOT HUNGRY & SYMPTOMATIC.
FASTING IS PHYSIOLOGICAL REST. STARVATION IS NOT EATING, WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY
Fasting is physiological rest. Starvation is pathological. When you are not
hungry, your fasting is your temporary abstinence from your ingestion of all
food but drinking as much water as your thirst demands. When you are hungry,
you are starving when you abstain from your ingestion of food and water.
Fasting exists until your body's surplus or stored fats are consumed and
harmful accumulations are eliminated. Fasting is remedial, restorative and
healthful. Starvation is denying your body essential food and water for its
maintenance and is injurious to your body. When you fast, drink only water,
lie down and close your eyes. Keep your eyes closed every moment of the 24
hours, every day that you water fast. During a water fast, you must have
total physiological rest. You can only accomplish total physiological rest,
by keeping your eyes closed. Feel, meditate, think on and concentrate on
whatever are your symptoms until you are asymptomatic. Eat when you are
asymptomatic, i.e., when you no longer have any symptoms or when you are
genuinely hungry, i.e., when you are salivating for food.
