What is the best two-week cleansing diet?
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010I have a binge eating problem and I believe abstaining from solid food for two weeks would help me to overcome the psycoligical aspects of this disorder. I know it will be the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. I would like to lose 10 pounds by the middle of march, and I believe this is the way to go.
Try a fast. Drink only juice or water and eat very small things. Negative calorie foods. (but not like the anorexic kind of fast) More pure and untainted things will do you some good.
i hope you reach your goal (:

Saturday, March 6th, 2010Is Only a Diet Required for Healthy Skin?
Friday, March 5th, 2010
Boy did I learn a valuable lesson. The diet required for healthy skin is not much different from the one that you should be trying to follow everyday, anyway. There is a noted dermatologist that authored a book claiming that specific foods will make you look younger, in just a few days. But, when pressed by a reporter, he admitted that he simply wanted people to make more healthy food choices. So, he was appealing to their vanity.
There is no single specific Diet required for healthy skin. You should eat a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables every day, preferably organic. You should choose lean protein from chicken, eggs, fish and turkey. If you are vegan, you can choose protein-rich soy, tofu, beans or lentils.
The value of dairy products is somewhat questionable, especially if you have acne. Studies suggest that milk and other dairy products may aggravate the condition. But, you do need to get enough calcium and vitamin D, every day. Kelp is a good source of calcium and one of the skin’s functions is to synthesize vitamin D from the sun, although cosmetics and sunscreens interfere with that function.
There are individual variables that could determine the diet required for healthy skin in your own case. For example, if you are suffering from specific diseases or unwanted skin-conditions, such as acne, psoriasis or eczema, there could be specific nutritional deficiencies in your current diet.
I always recommend that you see a doctor of naturopathic medicine, a holistic practitioner or an MD that does not rely on drugs or surgical intervention. There are no quick fixes for most things, it takes a complete plan. So, even if you found a diet required for healthy skin, it would only be a single part of the plan.
To maintain the skin’s health, you need gentle daily cleansing. To avoid excessive dryness, you need to avoid chlorinated water. If you live in an area that uses chlorine to kill bacteria, you need a showerhead filter.
To prevent illness and diseases in later life, you need to avoid cosmetics that contain toxins. To reduce your risk of skin-cancer, you need to avoid overexposure to the sun. To prevent toxins from clogging the pores, you need to avoid cleansers and lotions that contain petrolatum.
I mentioned earlier that the diet required for healthy skin would preferably be all organic, because of the toxins that are present in the packaged and prepared foods that we eat, the herbicides and pesticides used on most farms and simply the higher nutritional content found in organic foods. But, if you really want to delay the signs of aging and look younger, you need to use quality creams that contain the necessary nutrients to support the skin’s health.
Make no mistake about it. You would want to make sure that the manufacturer tests the raw ingredients for toxic contaminants and checks each batch for purity. The ingredients to look for are those that are included in a diet required for healthy skin. It’s all about the nutritional content.

Benefits of Cleansing, Fasting & Mono-diets
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010
Cutting-Edge News Room
What is cleansing? It is a process of eliminating toxins, internal toxins, from the body. Every day our bodies are presented with environmental toxins, including pollution, airborne viruses and substances from the foods we eat. Normally our livers help us process these pollutants, but it is impossible over time for our bodies to completely eradicate all of the poisons we are subject to.
Consider for example your home furnace. It has a filter you place in it. In the beginning the filter works fine. Over time however you must clean or replace the filter or it does not work as efficiently. Our bodies work the same way. Since we cannot replace our bodies we must periodically cleanse them. When we do not, we become sick, we fall prey to immune system illnesses or digestive illnesses. We catch colds more easily or have difficulty getting over them.
Many people do not realize a simple cleanse can help them with these problems. Some people are less likely to have trouble with toxins including individuals on raw food diets or similar diets because they do not put as much pollution in their bodies from the foods they eat.
This does not mean however that they do not need to periodically cleanse. Some simple ways to cleanse include ingesting certain herbs that help bind or chelate certain chemicals or heavy metals out of the body. Some health food stores offer herb combinations that you can buy that help your body purge toxins. Other ways to remove toxins from the body include by fasting and by mono-diets, described below.
Fasting
Fasting is an opportunity like cleansing to help detoxify the body and heal the body. For many it is also an opportunity to heal the mind or engage in a period of spiritual cleansing. People can fast for a period of 2 to 7 days or more, although this is not recommended unless someone is supervised. Not all people should fast including those with chronic health conditions unless they are supervised by a health practitioner.
Often fasts are useful for overcoming health conditions, so it may be helpful after all. Many find fasting helps boost the immune system, and decrease the side effects of many health conditions including arthritis and asthma. In many countries fasting is quite a part of daily life and religious life, and in others used to treat conditions like allergies. Fasting may help you detect certain allergies especially food allergies if you eliminate them from your diet.
To start a fast it is always best to start with light meals the day before. Many people begin with short two day fasts and work their way up to longer fasts. For many a fast consists of drinking water or diluted juices although the sugar in the juice is not traditionally a true fast, but may be useful for someone that requires more of a restricted diet than a full fast. Lemon and water may be more appropriate.
Some of the side effects of a fast may include:
- Headache
- Fatigue
- Nausea
- Anxiety
- Chills
How Often To Fast
You can fast as little or as often as you like, but you shouldn’t engage in it too often because you don’t want your body to go into starvation mode. A two day fast once four times a year will offer your body plenty of time to recharge and remove toxins. This will not place too much strain on your body. Some people refer to this as seasonal cleaning or spring cleansing. You can perform a fast once for each of the seasons for example.
The minimum fast to achieve a good result is usually 48 hours or two days. Fasting will help you look your best, avoid catching common viral illnesses as often, and will help you feel more energetic more often.
Mono-Diets
Many people have not heard of mono-diets. They are an optimal way according to some to help detoxify the body and lose weight. A mono-diet is sometimes much easier for someone that has enjoyed a raw food diet because they are used to not splurging on a bunch of processed and junk foods.
A mono-diet as the name implied means eating one food product only for a defined period of time. So, you may decide for a period of 7 days to eat just apples, bananas or pineapples.
This type of diet is not something that would be healthy for an individual to live on, because it would not provide the proper volumes of essential vitamins, minerals and nutrients to sustain life. However, for purposes of cleansing, or a pre-fast or pre-cleanse diet a mono-diet would be very appropriate.
Usually someone tries a mono-diet for just 3 days or thereabouts. This is a fine amount of time to enjoy a mono-diet especially if trying it for the first time.
Here are some ways to try the mono-diet:
- 2-3 days of vegetables of any kind eaten raw with no salt
- 2-3 days of fruits
- 2-3 days of one type of vegetable
- 2-3 days of one type of fruit
It is very important that you drink a lot of water during this time to help your body purge toxins and to help keep you hydrated. This will also stimulate your colon to relieve your bowels of any built-up toxins.
Sincerely yours,
Omid
