depriving

Fasting - Is depriving your body of food that is essential in providing energy, rebuilding body cells and keeping the body healthy. When we go without food for twenty-four hours the body goes into crisis mode.

 

The body realized that to many hours have pass without any vital commodity from which, the nutrients needed can possible be derived. Immediately the body without our help goes into protection mode.

 

The first thing that happened is; because no nutrients are taken into the body the body put an immediate lock-down on the excretion of solid waste. Because the intestines is a store room or usable nutrients they are shut off. It is from here the body is able to utilized the stored-up waste that should have been disposed of; in to useful nutrients.

 

The next thing that happened the body began to push the mind to eat. It gets pain such as belly pains, hunger pains, headaches, migraines, etc. all in an effort to force you to eat so thing can go back to normal.

 

Always remember the body is not in any critical position or in any danger. This is just the body's effort to have things go back to normal.

 

The first day of fasting is always the hardest day. Once you get passed the first day, you will have to contend with the daily bout of weakness, here and there. Just remember this is the body still trying to force you back to an eating practice that it considered normal.
