7 recipes for fasting day

A fast­ing day is a very good well­ness event. How­ev­er, if on the eve of such a day and after it you eat to sati­ety, noth­ing good will come of it. You need to pre­pare for a fast­ing day a day or two before it. Reduce the amount of food eat­en, reduce por­tions, min­i­mize the con­sump­tion of ani­mal pro­teins (meat, fish, milk, eggs). Drink more water than cof­fee, tea, juices.

Enter­ing a fast­ing day, have lunch, and replace din­ner with plain non-car­bon­at­ed water. Then, already at night, the body will begin to engage in active self-cleans­ing.

The main prin­ci­ple of the fast­ing day is to active­ly dilute and neu­tral­ize diges­tive juices with water and food of min­i­mal calo­rie con­tent so that they (juices) do not cor­rode the mucous mem­brane of the gas­troin­testi­nal tract, do not cause inflam­ma­tion, ero­sion and ulcer­a­tion. At this time, the body, freed from the bur­den of excess food, will con­duct a “gen­er­al clean­ing”, revi­sion, self-heal­ing, self-reg­u­la­tion in itself.
It makes sense to spend a fast­ing day with only one prod­uct. For exam­ple, on Fri­day we eat veg­eta­bles and fruits, on Sat­ur­day — full unload­ing with one prod­uct, on Sun­day we begin to leave the unload­ing day.

It is impor­tant to give up sug­ar and table salt for the peri­od of unload­ing, and on ordi­nary days the use of these sub­stances should be lim­it­ed.
We over­come the feel­ing of hunger with a mono-prod­uct and water, and we are also dis­tract­ed by light phys­i­cal activ­i­ty.
The same mea­sures can be con­nect­ed against insom­nia. Use­ful swim­ming, vis­it­ing the bath. It should be remem­bered that after them the feel­ing of hunger will become espe­cial­ly strong. It can be suc­cess­ful­ly quenched with ordi­nary clean water inside and dis­trac­tion from food for var­i­ous use­ful activ­i­ties.
The day that fol­lows the unload­ing should not become a “hol­i­day for the stom­ach.”

It is bet­ter to diver­si­fy the menu with veg­eta­bles and berries, con­nect tea, cof­fee with­out sug­ar, whole­meal bread, but it is advis­able to post­pone the con­sump­tion of meat, fish, eggs for anoth­er day

Cucum­bers. One and a half to two kilo­grams of cucum­bers is enough for the whole day. Cucum­bers are often eat­en every 2–3 hours, sat­is­fy­ing pos­si­ble hunger with plain water (2 or more liters per day). After the “cucum­ber” day, do not have din­ner so that the body cleans itself.

Apples. You need 1–2 kg of unsweet­ened apples with a peel, but with­out a core. Drink apples with water. Instead of apples, unsweet­ened pears can be suc­cess­ful­ly used. It is nec­es­sary to chew food thor­ough­ly, for this it is use­ful to treat prob­lem teeth and stom­ati­tis, gin­givi­tis, and peri­odon­tal dis­ease in advance.

Veg­eta­bles. Raw car­rots, 1.5–2 kg, are best suit­ed. If it’s too tough, grate it. The same rec­om­men­da­tions apply to pump­kin.

Plums, cher­ries, sweet cher­ries (1.5 kg). With such a diet (as well as dur­ing a fast­ing day in gen­er­al), diar­rhea may devel­op. If the excre­tion of tox­ins from the intestines is not too intense, then it is enough to be near the toi­let dur­ing the fast­ing day.

If you use straw­ber­ries (straw­ber­ries) for unload­ing, you should remem­ber that these berries can cause an aller­gic reac­tion.

Rice boiled in water with­out salt and sug­ar. Enough 100 g of rice. Dur­ing the day, you need to eat it in small por­tions, inter­rupt­ing the feel­ing of hunger with water. Rice can cause con­sti­pa­tion, so it can be paired with raw car­rots or unsweet­ened apples.
Before eat­ing rice (as well as oth­er prod­ucts for a fast­ing day), you can drink a glass (200 ml) of warm boiled water. This will reduce the caus­tic­i­ty and aggres­sive­ness of gas­tric juice, length­en the diges­tive process.

7. You can use buck­wheat for a fast­ing day, up to 150–200 g. Buck­wheat is quite high in calo­ries (like rice), so they should be used specif­i­cal­ly for unload­ing the body, and not for pur­pose­ful weight loss for the report­ing day. Brew it with water in por­tions of 50–100 grams. You can use a ther­mos, a dou­ble boil­er. There are meth­ods accord­ing to which buck­wheat is poured with one per­cent kefir.
