” Therapeutic fasting means taking pure water while ensuring complete
physical and emotional rest. This unique process maximizes the
healing potential of the body, allowing it to “clean house” and
quickly restore a state of higher health.
Therapeutic fasting should be supervised by a properly trained
hygienic doctor and should be followed by appropriate dietary and
lifestyle modifications.
When properly implemented, therapeutic fasting is extremely effective
in creating an internal environment in which the body can do what it
does best – heal itself.”
