You have fasted for over five days, and you have visions of sugarplums and all of the beautiful and delicious food you love and missed eating. You cannot wait for the final day of your fast to reach; so you can cheat your hunger, and participate in all the delicious, goodness, you sacrificed during your fast. You plan is to eat, everything you can get your hands, on as soon as possible.
Hold up, Stop right there. Keep that thought in mind. However, there are some things you need to know; before you injure, yourself! Bull Shit you may say, I have never heard, of anyone injuring themselves; just by eating. Well just take a little time and I will let you know; how easy it is, for you to actually injure yourself eating.
Before, you continue and allow your imagination about the foods you are hoping to eat run away with you, the first thing you need to know is: Some of the food you love and considered delicious, after your fast; you will lose your taste for them. What! You will see those foods, they will look delicious, you will remember how much you love them; but as soon as you bite into them, you may be disgusted by their taste.
The second thing is; your digestive tract has been at rest for many days, its use, has been periodic at best. What happens, your digestive tract; gets tender, from lack of use. Another thing that happens, while you fast is: with the lack of regular food intake, your gut shrinks and your pancreas stop producing the regular amount of Enzymes, to aid in digestion of food as it used to. There was no need to; so why should your pancreas work.
These are three serious situations; you have to address with care. If you fail to address each of these new developments, of your body with care; you can injure your digestive track, cause great pain from your throat to your anus, along with belly pains and severe Diarrhea.
Our conscious, is not aware, of any of these chances within the composition of our anatomy. We often think; we can eat the same quantity, of food as we did, before you began your fast. But that is absolutely not true, you cannot.
You don't want to end up with a bruised digestive track, the pain is awful, each time you swallow or breathe too hard etc. it is painful. It also comes along with: uncontrollable belching and re-flux each time they occur it is painful. I speak of an injury from your throat to your Anus.
In order to ensure, we do not injure our digestive track by eating food that will cause it to be bruised or burn such as rough and spicy foods. We must drink warm milk. Milk is best because, it is the first food we ever ingest. It is gentle on our palate, throat and gut and it is easy to digest.
the consumption of milk helps to trigger our pancreas to produce enzymes and it helps our stomach/gut to expand. After you have drank mile eat some low acid fruits, not much, cooked rice can be added to the mix. Please avoid meat products for the first two or three days, and when you start eating meat start with fish; for the muscle fiber in fish, is very tender and easy to digest. Follow this method of eating for two or three days after which you may go back to normal eating.
If you introduce solid and normal food to quickly, you will not only injure your stomach you may be forced to vomit because your shrunken stomach, will be to small to hold the large quantity of food you eat. The food will also be spilled into your intestine before it is broken down by the stomach enzymes.
This is so because your body, has not begun to produce the quantity of enzymes needed to break down the food you have eaten, in a quantity it can easily digest.
Learn from the Chief's mistakes and don't get hurt.
