The Fasting Revolution Journal
We are starting a trend of culinary discipline. Take a break to fast.
To fast is to abstain from food. Some people call it fasting when they eat sparingly or abstain from some foods (or un-Foods.) Even a short fast is beneficial to your body's systems. When you fast, you give your body a rest from food abuse (continuously processing, filtering, and attempting elimination of unnatural substances.)
Please note that while fasting, we continue to feed our bodies essential minerals (via herbal compounds, herbs, and clean water) to maintain optimum health, wellness, and vitality. It is essential to be nourished, on a cellular level and hydrated, while fasting.
Although there are many types of fasts, intracellular cleansing is the most effective type of fasting. During an intracellular cleanse, you allow your body to rid itself of waste while nourishing it with minerals which have a high vibrational frequency and are from natural plants... ancient and original to the earth and sea.
Some Benefits of Fasting
Fasting reverses disease and is the quickest way to reclaim your health, well-being and peace of mind
Fasting removes waste, weight, and excess debris from your body and will, eventually, reverse constipation
Fasting gives your body an opportunity to recover from the negative affects of processed foods, fast foods, putrefied meat, sugar, starch, salt and oil
Fasting allows your body to de-stress; soothes and strengthens your nervous system
Fasting gives your body’s systems an opportunity to recover from being overworked
Fasting helps you overcome trauma and provides mental clarity
Fasting heightens your sense of taste and smell
Fasting energizes you
Fasting allows you and your family more precious moments to be alive and well together
Helpful Tips
Make a commitment to the type and length of fast you intend to do, and stay on task
Link up with a ‘fasting buddy.’ The buddy support system works. When you fast with someone, it makes fasting easier
Coming off of a fast: At the end of your fast, do not return to old eating habits, come off of your fast with light food from the “Food for a Healthy You” list
When you come off of your fast, do not eat meat (blood,) starch or sugar
You will be surprised what an inspiration you can be when you share your story
Research food and learn to develop good eating habits
Stop mindless eating; stop eating out of habit
Stop eating the same foods that killed our ancestors
Get Started
Post your intended length of fast, insight and progress updates

Before I began to fast, my diet consisted of blood (meat) and starch. I mostly ate chicken, pizza, pastas, and other things that did not support my health. I was unaware that my diet was not supporting my wellness. Fasting let me know the truth. It gave me a chance to reclaim my body, mind, and spirit. Fasting gave me the power to manifest wellness and joy into my life. My diet now consists of natural fruit juices, herbs, water, and sunlight. I am on day one of a fast and am eager to be deep off into my journey with this fast. The pursuit of wellness has become my life. Thank you, Cleaster for showing me the way and being with me on my journey. I see you.
You are very welcome, Taylor. I appreciate your innate ability to grasp the concept of natural nutrition, intracellular cleansing, food science and herbology. Thank you for your support on my journey. Your thirst for knowledge in this area is matched by your ability to manifest, in the physical, what you have learned. An apt pupil you are, when you can challenge and teach the one whom, initially, brings you the knowledge. I thank you. I just love seeing the way the herbs reveal themselves to you, and adore your ability to receive the messages and codes from them, naturally and without effort. Welcome to the fast. Here's to your highest health! I see you. ~ CLE
Today is my 42nd day of my year long fast. I am excited about the changes that are occuring in my body. I feel lighter and I am full of energy. These days have been empowering and healing. Each day I learn more and more about my self and a nw awareness comes over me daily. I love the way and there is not a food on this planet that I want to compromise this feeling for. I have been drinking live juice prepared in my juicer, Herbal Elite, and WATER. So far I have removed 58 pounds of waste from my body and it so rewarding to see it leave. Before my fast, I was discouraged about loosing this much weight. Everyday I loose weight/waste, everyday my life changes. I am so grateful for the knowledge of fasting.
The Fasting Revolution Journal is a great vehicle for us (fasters) to share our experiences as we cleanse, heal and take control of our bodies and lives. As we journal, we teach each other, grow our knowledge pool, and elevate our collective consciousness.
It is January 28, 2010 and I am on 46th day of my 100-day fast. To date, I have been joined, on this fast, by four fasters (who are on fasts of various lengths,) and I welcome others. You will hear interesting stories from fasters as they share their respective and our collective journey to health and wellness. See Taylor’s first entry above.

I begin the morning with a cup of warm water, to get my day started. It feels so soothing to drink. That starts off my day with a solid foundation. My body welcomes and receives the water and my body's systems are started in such a warm, loving way. Thank you, Sebi, for the recommendation. This is such a simple, economical habit… a helpful, gentle prompt to get your body's systems into gear for their daily tasks. Sometimes, I drink two cups of warm water, because it makes drinking water so effortless for me.
My method to drinking more water is to drink a tall glass of water every hour until I reach my daily intake goal. Any additional water intake is wonderful! This method is my answer to the challenge of drinking half my body weight in ounces of water daily (which is the minimum of H2O that your body needs, within a 24-hour period.)
I receive reports from people saying that the reason why they do not drink their share of water is because it makes them urinate. That is the idea... waste removal. The waste that is found in urine is just as important to expel as the waste in feces and perspiration. In addition, the body is mainly composed of water and every one of our body systems needs water for proper and maximum function. Another attribute to drinking water is, it helps you lose weight/waste.
When you do not drink enough water, it adversely affects the body and creates a welcoming environment for dis-ease. So, please drink your water. You don't want to ‘auto-toxicate’ (get sick from your body's waste.) I have done it and it and my symptoms were constipation, headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, fever, and irritability. Not a pretty picture, and an abrupt end to my fun plans for the day.
Besides drinking pure water, I drink natural herbal teas and Herbal Elite fruit smoothies. I add ginger, cayenne, agave nectar or maple syrup to fruit juice and and water. Then, I pour in my Herbal Elite powder, while the blender is going (to keep the powder from sticking to the blender.) Occasionally, I add ground flax seeds or a couple of (pitted) dates to my fruit smoothie. I am having so much fun blending different delicious fruity smoothies.
Since I have been taking the Herbal Elite natural herbal compound, I have experienced waste/weight loss; a calm, relaxed nervous system; a heightened state of mental clarity; sharpened reflexes; physical endurance and strength (before, during and after my work-outs; a reinforced immune system, and peace.) Fasting speeds up and reinforces this process. The love and kindness I am giving myself in this elevated state of being is extended to those in my life and returned back to me ~ tenfold. It is beautiful to experience and to behold. I deserve it and so do you.
You will be hearing from me again soon. I look forward to hearing from you. Enjoy your journey to health and wellness.

Looking back on today from this morning to now, I had a wonderful day two! The watermelon juice was so delicious and I got to enjoy it in the warm sunshine. I drink water throughout the day all day. I take my herbs in small doses many times throughout the day instead of a few large doses. Tomorrow I will begin my day with warm water. Thanks Cleaster! I am so happy to be on this fast right now. I am eager to begin each day as it is a testament of my wellness. Until next time.

Day 40! What? I have never gone 40 days without a chicken wing or some chocolate in my mouth. I'm so serious about that...but it feels real good to say that I have the self control to just stop it!
I have committed to a 90 day fast and I dont really like to count days because I just want to be in a groove and keep it moving. But 40 days is such an accomplishment.
So far I feel great. I have energy and dont get tired during the day like I used to. My skin has cleared up and it is noticable to me and others, not to mention dropping 6 pant sizes!!
I had live juice (juice not from concentrate) today with my Herbal Elite and flax seed in my shake today.
I had some Cascarra Sagrada today and it bought out alot of mucus. 40 days of fasting and I still have mucus? I am so blessed and greatful to truely give my body a break from eating foods that shortened my life, my breath and my health.
More next time.

WATER! WATER! WATER! It's 11pm and though I had a long drawn out day I'm yawning and extra tired. Its only 'cause I just didn't have enough water today!
Day 49 of my fast and still feeling good, no I'm really more than good. Good is such a bland word, I'm super fantastic!! (borrowed from the lovely Jai)
Over a month of fasting and I'm still getting rid of mucus, so my water intake must be increased!
I had my Herbal Elite in the blender with fresh strawberries, water a bit of Agave and a little bit of Ginger. I'm finding I have less of a desire for sweet drinks ( all natural and preferably organic of course).
I and my body are changing in ways I never expected. This fast has become about so much more than food for me. I have regained a sense of self and control over my mind and emotions that kept me in a rut of depression and self denial. I must constantly work at improving myself, however I can confirm that the fast, the herbs (as well as good friends) helped to bring me back into my true self.
Peace!

Against all odds!
Today is day 56 of my fast! Go! On day 54, I had nine teeth extracted at once, because of my fast, I have not been in ANY pain what so ever and I have not taken any pain medication. I feel fantastic as if nothing has happened at all. Oh yeah, and I finally got past the 300 pound mark! 298 pounds today and I am still loosing a pound a day on average. I am starting to look and feel like myself again. I am so grateful for this fast and the life saving herbs. Thank you Herbal Elite and the entire Primal Bend family,
L~
Today is day 17 for me on this fast and it feels great! I woke up this morning feeling well rested and ready to Love myself in the new day. I began the day with a tall glass of warm water to jump start my system. Followed by some coconut water. i took my herbal elite in the morning and more later on in the afternoon. I can feel the herbs healing and providing me with the nourishment I need to keep active throughout the day. I am so thankful for my family and how they support me on my journey to wellness. Special thank you goes out to Cleaster Cotton for providing the wisdom and compassion to help others.
Greetings Family ~
I am on DAY 63 of my fabulous fast. I am so thankful for health, peace and happiness. My family is so supportive of my journey and that makes it all the more beautiful. There is a lovely feeling that washes over me whenever I think about how positive it is to be fasting with a group of like-hearted people. One of the best part of this journey is helping people take control of their heath, cure and avoid dis-ease.
The kitchen is always alive with fruit being cleaned and cut, the juicer and blender buzzing, tea being made, Irish moss simmering, herbs being taken, and with talks of our respective and collective journey.
My intake includes distilled and purified water, Irish moss, young (green) coconut water, Herbal Elite (herbal compound) in my fresh squeezed juice (orange, apple, ginger, lime, papaya, mango, grape, grapefruit,) and natural herb teas. Sometimes, I add ground flax seed and/or hemp and agave nectar to my shakes.
My energy level is high and my nervous system is calm. I do not feel like I am fasting. I feel like this is a way of life.
My cardio and strengthening workouts are strong and I plan to start running in the near future.
I grocery shop and prepare food for the children. I just love handling the food, smelling the aromas, and serving wonderful meals to them. They constantly look forward to what culinary creations are coming out of the kitchen next. Stay tuned for new photos of my most recent creations.
I welcome all of the people who have recently joined the fast. Please know that you have a support system, here to help you on your journey. I invite you to share on this page. You never know whom you might inspire.
Here's to Your Highest Health!

Day 21 of my journey began with coconut water. hmmmm coconut water liquid joy. I brewed some sassafras tea, which is a blood purifier, and added some agave nectar to sweeten it up. I still had some sassafras tea in my pot after drinking a cup and decided to add some tormentil and some more purified water. Tormentil is a super herb with many healing properties. I let the sassafras and tormentil brew together for a good 30 minutes to increase the potency and effectiveness of my concoction. It was so strong that the tormentil made my stomach uneasy as it is emetic on an empty stomach, but i stayed strong and had a bm instead, expelling a substantial amount of mucous. I took small amounts of burdock and drank water throughout the morning and took some herbal elite. I took some ground hempseed with water before I ventured out of the house around 3pm. Hempseed is most excellent in supporting the immune system and contains all the essential amino acids that the human body requires to be well. I went fruit and juice shopping and came home with pounds of organic locally va grown winesap apples and some organic pears. I juiced the apples with the pairs together and thoroughly enjoyed the flavor and texture of my "Live" juice. I drank around 32 ounces and shared with the family. After a couple of hours I had a tall glass of organic concord grape juice which hit the spot. Finally I took the last of my 6-week supply of herbal elite!!! But i have more in another container. I drank more water and just now was feeling hungry so I enjoyed a creamy delicious date. I am Loving myself more each day. This is a beautiful place to be alive and well. I give thanks.
Love and Wellness.
This is day 3 and I have not made it totally through each day is a better day.This journey really requires a lot of discipline.I really want to make it through..
Dear Tasha ~ You can and will make it through. Look at the goals you wrote down and look at photos of you when you felt your best. Please believe that you will look and feel better than you have seen and felt yourself. Make the committment to yourself and take it one day at a time. Be kind to yourself and know that you are on a journey through and out of food addiction. When you detox, all of that which is inside of you and not serving you will be expelled. Sometimes, that process is very challenging. What will make it less challenging is your committment to see yourself through to wellness. Your support system is here. Is there something that you are challenged with in particular?
Dear Tasha ~ (continued)
Let us address it… here, if possible, so your concerns and the suggestions to them can help someone else.
I am so thankful that you wrote on this Fasting Journal.
Peace,
CLEASTER
Well today is Day 3 and yet the best day....On the first day I tried the herbal elite with grapefruit juice and the taste was not good at all. i kept trying to drink it but it just was not working. So the next day I tried blue berries and rasberries and that was drinkable. NOW today i tried strawberries, cantelope, and honeymelon and FINALLY a success I have drank a lot. I am so happy that I can say I offically started my journey. I am very grateful to Ms.Cleaster for her continous help to get me on the right track. THANK YOU SO MUCH. You are always available and return my calls.
I Will keep trying to find others way to make this tasteful to endure to the end...
It has been some time since I posted on this blog site, because we created a proper website at www.primalblends.com. For those of you who were wondering how long my fast lasted... I completed 126 days of intracellular cleansing. My fast became quite effortless and afforded me fanastic results. I am on day 8 of my current fast and have no difficulty fasting now. It is getting started that takes the most discipline. Here's to your highest health! Cleaster
Just wanna say a big thank you Neme Amber for introducing me to Dr Emmanuel the great HERBALIST that helped me prepare home remedies that cured my herpes (HSV 2).
I was infected with HSV 2 for the past two years and i was unable to get a better job cos all the company i was to get employed checked our blood test and found out that i was positive to GENITAL HERPES and i loosed employment.
So i was desperate to get a cure so that i can live normal and get my job training.
i earlier made some research and i contacted some doctors online but they keep on asking for money for courier after that they'll tell you that tax and so more so i became broke and frustrated.
One day i was less busy so i decided to make latest research on herpes cure and i found a site were everyone was talking about DR Emmanuel and herbs ability to cure herpes.
So i discussed with Neme Amber and she explained to me that its very easy working with Dr Emmanuel so i contacted DR Emmanuel via email ( nativehealthclinic@gmail.com ) and he helped me just as he has helped others now im cured and different medical centers has tested me and approved me cured.
so i decided to thank Neme Amber cos she made it possible for me.
