Yet, when doing a fast it’s amazing how much you more energy you gain, and by NOT eating. We know it sounds contradictory. Your body spends less effort and time processing solids.

More on that soon.

· You can have sharper senses

Whether it’s better vision, through to smelling scents… you’ll discover that your senses can improve. For example, if you go to a fresh market and smell the produce or walk past a café… you’ll notice that the different aromas are more pungent than before fasting. The downside is, those awful smells are more noticeable too! Also, you could gain clearer vision even after 1 or 2 days of fasting.

· Your mind will be more clear

Just about everyone we know has gone through the experiences of brain fog. You forget things, you find it hard to solve problems whether that be at work… or whilst you’re doing a project at home. Yet one of the advantages of fasting is that you can think more clearly. So, solutions to problems or doing those crossword puzzles will be easier than before. It's like your brain will have gone through a renovation!

· Helps to remove toxins

Every day your body is taking in toxins and chemicals from the air, environment… as well as through the foods and drinks you consume. When you fast, you give your body the chance to expel all these toxins. This detoxing will allow your body to function better, so it can help you live a better quality of life.

· You can visually see external benefits

Not only are there benefits of fasting by removing toxins from your body... as a by-product of this, you'll notice cosmetic benefits. And, this can include clearer, more radiant skin… your eyes are brighter, and your hair is lush and vibrant. Plus, those horrible wrinkles could reduce or even disappear! Now, that sure sounds great, right?

· You can get a better night’s sleep

Most people have their last meal at night for dinner, before going to bed. Yet, while you’re asleep, your body is working away to process all this food. Instead, your body should be repairing your body while in sleep mode. Thus, when you fast, your sleep can improve… as your body doesn’t have to expend all that effort processing your food, so you can have a more restful sleep.

· Aiding the treatment of health conditions

Whether it be conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, through to snoring… fasting has been known to help relieve some of the mildest to severe health conditions. And, this leads us to a story we mentioned we’d share at the start of this article. Keep reading to discover this amazing story…

2 Key Ways On How To Fast

Now that you know the many amazing benefits of fasting… it’s time to highlight the key ways on how you can fast.

In general, there are 2 liquids you can consume whilst on a fast… water or juice, and that’s it. You should not be consuming any solids while on a fast!

When doing a juice fast… this DOES NOT mean having those processed juices that you can get in supermarkets and the like. That’s because those types of manufactured juices contain a lot of crap… with little nutrition. So, when doing a juice fast you need to consume freshly made juice.

So, if you’re going to start for the first time… for most people doing a juice fast will be easier than on water. And, when you get the Global Health Renegade Fasting Guide… you also get our exclusive, powerful, body cleansing juice recipe.

Also, on a juice fast, your body helps to keep you feel fuller. So, this is why it’s better for newbie fasters as it helps to ease you into the process.

Yet, in saying that, when you consume just water… you’ll gain the benefits of fasting at a quicker rate. And, that’s because your body will go into the detoxing process at a far greater rate… in comparison to a juice fast. Doing a water fast is more challenging though.

Now, in terms of the length of fasting… we recommend minimum of 3 days through to 7 days. This will give your body time to detox, repair and reboot. Yet, if this seems dauting start slow. You could even do a half day, or 1 day fast.

The thing is, when you go on a longer term fast, you’ll feel like you’re going downhill to start off with. And, this is because your body is experiencing the detoxing effects and hunger. This is where many of you may quit, because you don’t feel the best.

Yet, when you overcome this, you’ll begin to feel better as your body goes through its detoxing. And, as each day goes by, your body will be healing and you’ll feel even better. At this stage, you may notice you have more energy, are more alert… plus, your skin looks more radiant and clearer.

The longer you fast, the more benefit you should experience. Yet, you do need to gauge how you’re feeling, and what your body is telling you.

If you feel hungry, drink more water or juice. If you feel lethargic or light-headed, take a rest. And, this is why if you’re going on a fast, especially for newbies… you should consider not working while you’re fasting.

While fasting, you can also write a journal of your experiences. This will help you to understand the emotions you go through both bad and good. But most of all, you’ll notice how great you feel AND look.
