DETOX ATHLETE Detoxification for athletes and bodybuilders During fasting, raw egg whites will increase energy, decrease muscle loss and detoxify the body. I discovered an amazing trick to muscle up and thin down. I was in a chin up competition with my friend bill but I also wanted to fast. So I took 10 raw egg whites and mixed them with veggie juice. They tasted good and had no effect on the fast. The detoxification was slower but I gained more muscles.

How does fasting with egg helps athletes and bodybuilders detoxify?

Fasting with egg whites is great for athletes who train heavy or have intense exercise sessions but want to trim off fat before a competition. With the addition of raw egg whites, you can exercise, train and do vigorous workouts during fasting, great for athletes and bodybuilders. Egg whites consist mainly of about 15% protein dissolved in water and contains almost zero fat and protein. The U.S. large egg white, contains about 20 calories. Egg white contains approximately 40 different proteins. Listed are the proteins found in egg whites by percentage along with their natural functions.
  • Avidin .06% Binds vitamin (biotin)
  • Globulins 8% Plugs defects in membranes, shell
  • Lysozyme 3.5% Enzyme that digests bacterial cell walls
  • Ovalbumin 54% Nourishment; blocks digestive enzymes
  • Ovotransferrin 12% Binds iron
  • Ovomucoid 11% Blocks digestive enzymes
  • Ovomucin 1.5% Thickens egg white; inhibits viruses
  • Others 10% Bind vitamins, block digestive enzymes.
This combination of no fat and cholesterol, low calorie and ease of digestion make them perfect for juice fasting for athletes. With the juice and the egg white protein the body is lacking nothing. It would be the perfect diet with the addition of some essential oils. This is a new way to fast and I am hoping to get a few people to try it and post their results. opt: Anne]]> http://www.detoxification.ws/juice-fasting/detoxification-athletes-bodybuilders/feed 1 Discipline, The Fasting Structure http://www.detoxification.ws/water-fasting/fasting-structure http://www.detoxification.ws/water-fasting/fasting-structure#comments Thu, 01 Jan 1970 04:59:59 +0000 book_angel888 http://detoxification.ws/fasting-structure

In observing people, looking for clues as to how to develop self-discipline, I was struck by a common denominator. Disciplined people create structure in their lives.

A prolonged fast is anything over 20 days on juice and about 7 on water. While 30 days on juice is somewhat difficult 14 days on water is a and very difficult and demanding much discipline. I find that long fasts are preferable to short ones because once the body is in the fasting state it cleanses systematically into the harder to get at body tissues. For this reason, most of the recoveries from illness have taken place in the latter parts of long juice or water fasts. A friend’s hemorrhoids were healed on the 21st day of a juice fast after suffering from them for 15 years. He stated “It is like they were never there.” Long fasts give the body the uninterrupted time to do the work of healing. I compare it to getting a piano tuned. A piano tuner can tune a piano in three short visits or one long one. Three shorter visits will take more time and energy because he has to drive back and forth, loading and unload his tools. The first few days of fasting gets rid of the gross waste products of digestion, but only after this can the body pull out its tools to get to work on healing. The thirty day juice fast is a standard in European health facilities. This length of fast feels about right because after 30 day it seems like you have been fasting for ever. Less then 30 days and you can miss the best experiences of the fast. The ten day water fast has also become a recommended number of days. Paul Bragg was an advocate of the 10 day water fast. Ten days on water will cause the same weight loss as 30 days on juice. But water fasting if far more difficult, especially if you have a fast metabolism. The difficulty with this length of a fast it is difficult not to overeat. When I fell into temptation and ate the wrong food, instantly all the benefits I was experiencing evaporated. This state cannot exist unless the blood is clean. Any toxic food and it is gone. Even over eating fruit will cause it to reduce. I duplicated this type of fast twice and experienced exactly the same effect only to lose it when faced with the intense desire for food that comes when hunger returns after the fast. These were rare and incredible experiences. Someday, God willing, I hope to have the discipline or the environment and support necessary to reach such a goal. Other fasting advocates claim this state can become permanent when maintaining a fruit diet. It is hard for me to envision what it would be like to live in this state permanently.]]> http://www.detoxification.ws/weight-loss/prolonged-fasting/feed 0 The Right Attitude http://www.detoxification.ws/disease-healing/the-right-attitude http://www.detoxification.ws/disease-healing/the-right-attitude#comments Tue, 05 Feb 2008 08:44:24 +0000 will http://detoxification.ws/the-right-attitude

After years of intense pain and useless medications, I remember the moment when I stepped out of the shower and, as I dried myself, realized my body no longer hurt. On a 30-day juice fast, my organs had healed. There is no greater detoxification program for the healing and recovery of your body than juice fasting because of the antioxidant, cleansing power of freshly made juices. Due to the highly toxic nature of the chemical compounds found in our present day diet, the detoxification organs need to have every nutritional resource available to assist the body in removal of toxic substances and for healing. Juice fasting is efficient in healing because the body is cleansed and the immune system is supported with nutrients. From cancer to heart disease, fasting needs to be the first defense against disease. If I break a bone, count me in for a trip to the hospital; however, when the problem is disease, ignoring detoxification and the nutritional needs of the immune system, is ignoring the body’s natural healing process. Detoxification should be integral to the healing process of modern medicine. Instead fasting has been given a bad reputation. Mention to your friends that you’re about to start a fast and the reaction will be one of horror. Expect emotionally charged statements that you’re going to die, become an anorexic or damage your organs. It will be rare to receive a positive response. From doctors to dietitians, the opinion is that fasting is harmful to the body. It is more acceptable to get drunk and smoke cigarettes. Yet, fasting is as old as man and has been used for thousands of years for healing and spiritual awakening. Prescriptions are more profitable than telling someone they need to eat more fruit, less junk and drink fresh juice for a few days. Also, most people want the lazy way to heal. They would rather take a pill than change their diet, yet medications cannot heal they can only alter the symptoms. Fasting is a more effective tool. A clean cell with all its nutritional needs fulfilled is a healthy cell. For recovery from disease and for optimum health, your trillions of cells need to be detoxified and saturated with nutrients. Excess fat, mucus coatings on the intestine, industrial chemicals, cholesterol, environmental toxins, medication residues, and the sludge from all the junk food from years of toxic living, need to be removed from the cells of your body. You may feel a couple of aches and pains, headaches and see some strangely-colored slimy things pass through the stool but do not be alarmed because this is just part of the cleansing process. In this book, you will learn how the detoxification process works so you will not have any little surprises. The chapter, Battling Cancer with Fasting, goes into greater detail on the healing process of disease.

Fasting is Natural Body Function

With great patience the body waits until we fall asleep to begin its nightly work of cleansing. Breakfast is appropriately named as it is breaking a nightly fast with a morning meal. Upon awakening from this short fast, the tongue is coated, breath foul, skin puffy, and the mind foggy. These are all early symptoms of the body in a state of detoxification. Bacon, eggs, a side order of pancakes, and a cup of coffee is a sure way of halting detoxification. Of course, you feel instantly better, attributing it to a greasy breakfast. These nightly fasts slow the erosion process and much repair work is done, but the time is too short for serious healing. For that, you need to get serious with detoxification through extended fasting.

Balanced Approach to Fasting

After my first 30-day juice fast, I was hooked and did two more 30-day fasts consecutively, eating for 10 days in between. From drug addiction to being a health zealot was a definite improvement, but my approach remained the same. Fasting and eating healthy became my new obsession. Eating a cookie brought days of guilt and shame. My thoughts dwelled on the horror of all the deadly toxins I had just injected into my bloodstream. I had to be in the gym 5 days a week. I was totally focused on my body and food. It was all I talked about and it irritated people. Now, fasting is just part of my life and eating healthy is normal. I don’t talk about the subject unless I have to. When I came to be at peace, I became balanced. Obsession or being fanatical comes from fear of being out of control. It is a security blanket that we hang onto; something that we can control, but obsession stops us from enjoying life. Obsession with health takes all the fun out of it. It is like going on a vacation and worrying about every detail. The trip becomes a nightmare. It is all the little worries and fear that take the joy out of the fasting journey. Am I drinking too much juice? Will adding mashed banana slow detoxification? How quickly will I lose weight? Can I exercise while fasting? Will loss of weight cause flabby skin? Does fasting hurt the liver? Why do I feel dizzy? Many questions are answered in the Commonly Asked Questions chapter. Questions are important and understanding brings comfort, but fasting is a personal journey and each fast is a different journey. There will always be the unexpected, for fasting is as mysterious as the human soul. It may be hard to let go and just enjoy the journey but that is the best way to fast.

Your Fasting Journey

Some find fasting easy and fast for 30 days on juice for their first fast. Others have a hard time getting past two days. Just do your best. The chapters, Persevering In Fasting and Principles of Fasting, will help greatly, but your fasting journey will not be without failures. It is only through failures that you can learn. With each victory, you will discover the joys of fasting. For those who press on, fasting has rewards. Clear sinuses that can smell a delicate fragrance; sensitive skin that shivers with the caress of a warm breeze; emotions that become a symphony to the soul; and a mind that can capture the profound depths of God and glimpse the joy of Adam and Eve. Instead of becoming old and sick with the coming years, you will age gracefully and be amazed at how young you feel. Hitting forty and fifty years old, life has just begun. A few more wrinkles but feeling like twenty. To change your life in a powerful way you need to master the art of fasting. In this fast-paced money centered culture, fasting is the reset button that takes you back to who you really are. It gives you time to be at peace and find yourself. It opens doors in the spiritual realm that can free a soul or change a nation. From Christ battling Satan in the desert to the divorced cashier battling breast cancer, fasting has a power to transform the outcome.]]> http://www.detoxification.ws/disease-healing/juice_fast-healing-cancer-immune_sytem/feed 0 Fasting Downs and Highs http://www.detoxification.ws/juice-fasting/fasting-downs-and-highs http://www.detoxification.ws/juice-fasting/fasting-downs-and-highs#comments Tue, 05 Feb 2008 06:56:43 +0000 book_angel888 http://detoxification.ws/fasting-downs-and-highs

Fasting is a roller coaster ride full of ups, downs, swerves and turns. During a fast, you can be flying high on the jet streams of exhilaration and unexpectedly nose-dive, free-falling face first into physical weakness and disturbing emotions. A little scary if you do not know it is coming. It would be great if I could hand you a daily forecast of how you will feel on each day of your fast, but fasting moves in mysterious ways. The body does the work of cleansing in cycles alternating between two very different states. In one state, you feel amazing, and, in the cleansing state, you feel badly. Feeling good is a sign the fast is working; feeling bad is a sign of detoxification. Every faster will experience the cleansing periods during a fast. Many bail out in disillusionment because they were unaware of just how difficult it is to endure three days of feeling weak and apathetic.

Fasting Dips, Downs and Cleansing Crisis

At the beginning of a fast, the lymphocytes seek out the dirtiest, toxic residues and burn this toxic filth as fuel. The body is finally able to rid itself of damaging carcinogenic pollutants which have built up in the system, but, at the same, time the burning of this unclean fuel results in physical discomfort. As the fast progresses, you will become cleaner and energy will increase until your body enters another cycle of cleaning. Changes can happen within hours, passing from a cleansing crisis, due to toxin elimination, to an energy peak. When the toxic residues enter the blood, they affect mind and body functions. Ketones, an intermediary metabolic product, may accumulate in the blood to high levels and cause ketoacidosis. Combined with high levels of urea, resulting from protein metabolism, this state can cause intense discomfort, headaches, back pain, dizziness, weakness and nausea. You will never get to the peak moment of fasting without passing through some fasting dips and detox periods. The cannibalization of sick cells, dirty fat, chocolate bars, Big Macs and fries make you feel dreadful. When the feeling intensifies, it can be truly fearsome. It has been termed a Cleansing Crisis. The good news is the body is finally able to rid itself of years of accumulated toxins. Enduring a cleansing crisis is the hardest part of the healing process. To stop feeling bad, most people want to eat, but do not eat during a cleansing crisis. The body is overloaded with the work of removing toxins. Digestion makes matters worse. Using the enema kit and drinking juice will help. Herbal tea with honey warms the shivers. Dips and Downs are the periods when the body is moderately cleansing causing periods of feeling down, like having a bad cold. You feel weak and lethargic. The mind rationalizes, I feel horrible; this can’t be working. You can maintain a normal routine of work on a dip; it requires willpower and determination. It also helps to know that the longer the down period, the greater the fasting high. On a juice fast, the body can go weeks before there is a serious detox or you can be blasted with headaches, nausea and weakness on the first day. The Downs usually last from one-to-three days, and may hit day 2 or day 28 of a fast. Dips, which are shorter, last only a few hours. The greater the quantity of toxins in the blood, the worse you feel. As unspiritual as an enema may seem, it has helped many end or reduce the crisis by removing toxins from the colon. Emotions and thinking are affected; old memories and negative feelings arise from the dead, like a detox of the soul. It is easy to become discouraged, feel irritated, short-tempered or mildly depressed. These cleansing periods require faith that it will pass. Energy packets of glycogen are stored in the liver and muscles for use during bursts of physical activity. During The Downs and Dips, the body utilizes glycogen from the liver and muscles for energy. This results in the familiar feeling of weakness. During a peak, the body has an abundant supply of glucose, and glycogen replacement occurs at a rapid rate creating abundant energy. Also, there is an intermediate state when glycogen is starting to be replaced. You will feel energetic but lack the endurance to match. Persevering through these various fasting states and energy levels is necessary for success.

Fasting Peaks and Highs

Pain is a sign of a problem. Feeling incredibly good is a sign your body is functioning at peak performance.

Drinking bottled juice will not slow down detoxification during a juice fast. Drink as much bottled juice during a fast as you want. Buy unsweetened natural juice. Bottled juice is great when you do not have fresh juice available. Also frozen concentrates are good. When I make watermelon juice, I add a can of frozen pineapple juice and the taste is amazing and it also sustains me for many hours of hard physical labor. Fresh juice is better for you as it has a revitalizing effect due to enzymes and all the nutritional mysteries that science is just beginning to understand that are killed by heat, air, and light. So drink as much fresh juice as you can and when you can’t drink sweetened herbal teas, bottled juice and frozen concentrates. Bottled Juice Problems During a Fast: Too much acidic juice, such as apple or grapefruit take too quickly can cause stomach pains. Heated tomato juice with some Worcestershire sauce and a sprinkle of garlic powder when you are chill from fasting is delicious and heart warming. Too much tomato juice slows the detoxification. Freeze fresh cantaloupe juice into Popsicles and you feel like you are cheating because they taste so good. Enjoy as they are permitted during a juice fast. Bottled juice is pasteurized and has lost its enzymes but has natural sugars, vitamins and mineral. Do not drink powdered juice mixtures or flavored fruit drinks. My favorite bottle juices are beet, mango and pear. Right now I have a fresh glass of blended mango from concentrate.]]> http://www.detoxification.ws/juice-fasting/bottled-juice/feed 0
