Fasting sounds a little extreme, wow, like not eating, not eating or drinking. Some people relate it to the ancient Chinese practice of abstaining from food.
Since then, the Chinese society has never really understood it, and then there is no proper inheritance of the word, it suddenly popped up everywhere, and then organized all kinds of activities to avoid the valley.
In fact, the Valley it, in the text, it is to avoid eating cereals, grains and cereals of this kind of action, called the Valley. He is also not fasting, nor is he doing any fasting detoxification. It's actually one of the earliest methods that we've come up with of not eating rice and noodles and all these high starch ingredients. That's what we're talking about.
Later, some people took the Taoist and Buddhist practice of not eating food for a short period of time as a way to spread the word to the general public and then do the so-called detoxification, which seems to have an effect.
Basically it's this hunger, this alerting of the immune system, this brief boost of immunity, the opportunities that come with that.
Now we don't use the term fasting detoxification anymore, because it was a term with some marketing behavior at the time, because it's the ultimate in being able to have a wake-up call, and then being able to remind the public to change their diets and take responsibility for their bodies, and that term is more of such an influence.
Then because the market later imitated us a lot of people, a lot of people are really called to use the Valley, with the hunger strike ah, to express this kind of fasting, so there is a lot of confusion on this word.
I see there are some online comments that this fasting, and then do not eat or drink on the body of the risk, so this kind of fasting with our talk, from beginning to end, it does not matter, because our fasting in fact did not fast, that this is an expression of the word only.
The reason I'm changing the term to "body cleansing" is that Sunshine Forest has been doing this kind of body cleansing since about 2004, and we haven't stopped eating since the beginning, not only haven't we stopped, but in fact, we've eaten more than we normally would have.
So the reason why we know it's safe is because we didn't go to extremes, we just changed the shape of the food. The way of eating didn't change this behavior of our daily eating. So we're changing it to body cleansing now to avoid to this misconception in society.
Because it's a very simple, and then very healthy, and not extreme, and it's a very natural behavior. For example, if you think you have to eat a pound of soybeans, this is quite helpful to health, the nutrients inside protein, many nutrients, and fiber. But soybeans you bite with your mouth to eat a catty, almost impossible to accomplish the task, so ancient times, the wise ancients ground soybeans into soybean milk, ground into soybean milk it did not eat soybeans, changed to drink soybean milk. Is it called fasting? Do not eat soybeans, changed to eat soybean milk, is not called fasting? Obviously, it is not fasting, only a change in the way of eating, reducing the burden of teeth, the burden of the stomach, is conducive to digestion and absorption only.
When we put carrots, cucumbers, celery, purple cabbage, lettuce, broccoli, and apples, pineapple, cantaloupe, this category. We use to use vegetables and fruits during this period and juice it to drink. This action with the soybean grinding into soybean milk principle is exactly the same, changed to eat.
In general, it is unlikely that everyone will eat a plate of shredded carrots, plus a plate of shredded potatoes, plus a plate of celery, plus a plate of cucumbers, plus a plate of broccoli, plus a plate of purple cabbage every day.
I believe that in Chinese society, almost even vegetarians who are very serious about eating don't eat this amount. So we advocate more vegetables, more fruits, more vegetables, more fruits, this kind of official language, the official so-called health theory, in fact, from beginning to end has not been realized, because more vegetables and fruits, for the teeth for the taste buds, for the whole digestive, for the process of eating in terms of, almost also is an impossible task, too difficult. Especially for the elderly, for busy people, for those children, it is almost impossible to accomplish the task.
So we started more than ten years ago in 2004, we decided to juice it, yes, on the one hand, it is cleaned vegetables, it is originally can be eaten raw, and then only raw food is more difficult, to be more difficult to solve that how to do? With the help of a juicer, the molecules put the nutrients in the food, through the cell wall breaking, the nutrients from the inside of the cell to release, so that we can drink when we can directly get the nutrition of the food, without having to consume the whole digestive process of physical energy. This is a very big saving, saving the body in the basic metabolism of digestion and absorption of the body energy consumed, consumed nutrients in the body. Reduces the stomach acid, reduces the production of enzymes, that is, enzymes, greatly reduces the burden on the body.
So the cleansing that Sunshine Forest has created is not extreme, it's still a process of sitting down at the table and eating, it's just that with the help of modern technology, a juicer is cleverly applied to help juice the food.
I believe that thousands of years of Chinese medicine practitioners, if they had known that there was such a thing as a juicer a long time ago, then he would not have had to put the herbs in a pot and cook them for so long, and then do so much of this process of boiling the herbs. Because actually the cooking process is to make the food easily digestible, and fire was invented to make the food break this tight cell-to-cell connection during the cooking process, and then make the nutrients more easily digested and absorbed.
And the juicer is arguably the single greatest contribution to digestion, absorption, and health in human history. Its role can be said to be completely medical grade, because since he can directly reduce the burden of digestion and absorption, so that people have the opportunity to significantly improve the utilization of nutrient absorption of food, then his contribution can be said to be medical grade, extraordinary, is a good juicer, the full equivalent of home medical care equipment, I think it is really worth to make a little investment in it.
We've used the best blenders, the best, so good that they can take a raw fish and almost beat it into a cooked fish, such an intensity of blending, but we've found that no matter how much we blended it, the principle of blending is distinctly different from the principle of juicing. If you bring the carrot to stir, not much juice, even if he has broken the wall, but only part of the broken, there is no way this can bring a lot of water.
And the carrot juice, the beet juice, the situation is completely different, out of the juice is really complete fresh, and then enough, so his wall-breaking effect is still far more than stirring, so stirring is suitable for the like no fiber is relatively small, the cell wall is not so solid food, suitable for stirring. For example, some nut foods, suitable for stirring. But in fact, the plant is actually its cell walls are very strong, so it is suitable for juicing.
So Sunnywood's body cleansing process is simply a matter of increasing the intake of fresh fruits in large quantities over a short period of time, and utilizing a juicer to make the digestion and absorption process much more efficient. And then, with the proper supplementation of nutrients, vegetables and fruits are also easily deficient in some special nutrients like vitamin B, minerals like magnesium and calcium, and allicin to strengthen the whole body, complete and balanced nutrition and body detoxification ability.
When you add vitamin C, it increases the body's ability to detoxify directly, which is widely proven in medicine. The Value of Vitamin C. Over a decade down the road, we've rarely added too many additional nutrients on top of this, at best a bit of Q10 and the occasional lecithin, all based on the needs of different people.
Some people who have been taking antibiotics for a long time or who have been in stressful situations for a long time, we will add some extra lactobacilli to them. When we add calcium and magnesium, it can neutralize the lactic acid in the body and reduce the accumulation of lactic acid in the body, which is of great significance and value to the heart, and to the disease of tumors. With the addition of vitamin B, it assists the entire liver in breaking down toxins, and the short-term, massive increase in vitamin B helps to help the body's accumulation of protein, fat, and sugar that can't be metabolized and broken down as quickly as possible, so as not to build up in the body, which also plays a role in preventing a variety of chronic illnesses, which is of great significance.
Do you want to add more nutrients, and what kind of nutrients?
In addition to protein powder, two scoops a day, vitamin B 9-15 pills a day, vitamin C 9-15 pills a day, calcium and magnesium tablets 9 pills a day. It makes sense that this standard configuration can be supplemented with an additional Peppermint Multivitamin Mineral to ensure more trace amounts of nutrients for this supplement. And then the addition of allicin helps to cleanse the stomach of this possibly some harmful bacteria. For example, Helicobacter pylori, allicin helps to cleanse the body of the harmful needs. Then Pinecone can also be added, it boosts the immune system.
On top of that, lecithin is a scavenger to clean up the blood vessels, helps to clean up those large molecules of fat, bonded cholesterol, which also makes sense. And then this Q10 increases the function of the heart, increases the release of energy, which also makes sense in a detoxification. The other nutrients, while they all have their own value, I don't really advocate adding additional nutrients to the process because we're trying to reduce the burden on the entire digestive system.
So the key at this stage is to make digestion and absorption easy, which saves a lot of energy. When you allow the body to have a lot of extra energy that it can work with, that energy is used to cleanse the body of toxins and clean the body of foreign invaders.
Don't underestimate this is a very, very significant thing, equivalent to the whole Chinese people will not work, all used to do cleaning, all used to clean up the four pests, what mosquitoes ah, rats ah, that is, the whole Chinese people do not go to work, all to do the work of cleaning up the garbage, I believe that a moment of the whole city at once became a lot of many, many, many, many, many, many, many, the environment has become very beautiful.
This kind of thing can not be done every day, because the body is actually to be used for production, for labor, for a variety of rich physiological functions. But after labor this must be tired, after labor there must be metabolic waste, after labor there must be more or less through various ways, bring different, there are respiratory, there are toxins brought by the digestive tract, and therefore regular cleaning, no matter from which point of view, the significance is very.
That just talked about the configuration of nutrients, vegetables and fruits basically is not really a mysterious recipe, strictly speaking, where it is very easy to juice, and then good, not too difficult to drink the ingredients, theoretically can be used to juice, this as a different collocation.
If from a strategic point of view, it is also the same the richer the better, only suitable for juicing this water content is relatively large vegetables are not many, like carrots a squeeze, wow full of a cup out. This if you take spinach to juice, this juicer will be stuck, and can not squeeze any juice, so suitable to take the juice, are optional.
There is a core part of the pure vegetables, vegetables accounted for about seventy percent, fruit it accounted for thirty percent, 7:3 ratio, so the collocation of it, the purpose is to short-term so that the calorie intake of us to minimize. This is still a calorie, can not be no no basic metabolism will be affected.
So it's a lowering of blood glucose, this makes the content of this food less, and then it's less calories. This has several benefits, the first is that the body, for the basic metabolism of the calories needed is not high, if you do not do this special exercise, ah labor, ah work, that in the case of low calorie, helps the body to store, the original storage of the calorie-containing substances gradually broken down, for a replacement. For example, the liver sugar stored in the body is replaced with new ones, and the energy stored in fat is broken down, which helps to regulate body weight and reduce the body's burden. Some of the calorie-containing substances in the blood, this will also be used to convert the metabolism to utilize in order to reduce the waste in the blood.
So the process of detoxification, strictly speaking, is not those we eat vegetables and fruits to do detoxification, nor is it the nutrients we supplement to do detoxification, but our body has a series of detoxification mechanism, clean up the body of garbage, clean up the body of toxins, clean up the body of the ability to foreign substances.
It's just that when we have to work and labor and cope with stress and digest hard-to-digest food at the same time, the body doesn't have enough energy to deal with a lot of garbage at the same time, and tends to slowly accumulate some of this toxic material or metabolic waste. [19, 15]
So after such a body cleansing process, utilizing the process of juicing, the process of nutritional supplementation, so that the body of the lowest consumption, save a lot of energy, used to clean up in the body, five years, ten years of slow accumulation of harmful substances, the body is equivalent to the body of a rebirth of the opportunity.
We have seen countless people adopt this approach over the past decade or so. Strictly speaking, he is really very safe, and his safety comes from the fact that he did not create any new risks at all, but just put a similar principle of soybean into soy milk, and squeezed vegetables and fruits into juice.
And from the point of view of eating, it's more vegetables and fruits than in general. This theoretically speaking simply with the risk and safety, more manufacturing of this what the risk has nothing to do with, it is the daily life, that is just a change of eating method, but this change of eating method is not simple, the reason is so a change of, you think about what we imagine, that stone mill, there is a person in that push that stone mill, the soybean grinding into soybean milk to consume physical energy, probably add up to the equivalent of if you eat soybeans with your teeth, the amount of consumption is equivalent to that stone mill. If you eat soybeans with your teeth, the amount of energy consumed is equivalent to the amount of energy consumed by the stone mill, grinding the soybeans. It's really not cost-effective for the body to consume that amount of energy every day to eat that amount of food.
The reason that fire has increased human life expectancy is that people's ability to digest and assimilate has increased dramatically. And I think that the "juicer" will be a great contribution to the human race after the invention of "fire".
It would be no less important than the fire, because the digestion and absorption of the food would be much better, and it would not destroy the nutrients of the food, and it would not destroy some of the nutrients because of the heat of the fire, so it would be revolutionary, and it would be neglected, and it would be a marvelous invention. [21, 35]
Then the first day of the process, the body basically just experiences a hunger, and then some of the toxins that are cleaned out of the intestines, some of the changes in this process of defecation, some people may have increased defecation, some people may have decreased it, whatever he's coming to the body to manage.
By the next day the liver sugar starts to be released and that part of the fat starts to be burned, so generally after the second night, most people will have some weight loss. The weight loss at this time, there is this water storage reduction, some of the waste out of the body, but also some of the fat conversion process in the weight loss, it is not really worth to calculate, in fact, even if the body cleansing process, is not to lose weight as the goal, but to reduce the burden on the body as the goal.
The body's burden is reduced, the fat on the fat, the thin on the thin this is the body's own command, regardless of whether you are really satisfied with their own fat and thin, but I think you should first of all health to the first, fat and thin elevated to the second, so that the body to command you, when the fat when the thin,
Remember, your fat and thin is the body must have to do the homework. The reason for this is that it must have its own routines in dealing with the burden if it is not completely cleaned out.
To the body cleansing of the third day fourth day fifth day sixth day seventh day eighth day, some people ask me in the end suitable to do how many days? In fact, eating vegetables and fruits in the end how many days is suitable? This word if you have a little bit of scientific thinking, it should be said that there is nothing to ask, because you are not on a hunger strike, you have not fasted, you just change the way you eat, it is equivalent to me or that, you turn the soybeans into soymilk can be able to drink for how many days, so theoretically it can be, you want to drink all the time to drink.
But this is the other way around, the body is cleaned up, or the city is cleaned up, so it's necessary to send all the citizens to clean up every day. I don't think it's necessary to do that.
So the act of cleaning is a short-term behavior, you feel good skin color, the spirit of good, the whole state is good, your vitality is also improved, almost, you can stop to start a good business, good to make money, good to treat your family well, good to love, with a fresh hot, happy you to devote to the life, rather than always immersed in the same state!
Well, then this of course more serious physical problems can be relatively long. For example, the chronic disease accumulation time is relatively long, you relatively need time is also relatively long. In fact, this long time is not a detoxification time needs to be long, but the body needs to rest, need to remember to reduce the burden of this process of rest, this time needs to be long.
Because the longer this time, the more the body will have enough energy to carry out the internal management of various chronic diseases of this kind of repair, because this is for the body, it always want to repair it to deal with, but it needs not only nutrition, it needs to have enough time, this time is to say, save energy, have enough energy to deal with the time. Okay, that makes sense. So if the chronic disease is accumulating for a longer period of time, it needs to rest for a longer period of time.
Then this is the principle of body cleansing in the true sense of the word, using the accumulation of time, hints of rest, a large number of fresh ingredients, and then rich in vitamins, minerals, complete nutrition, such a program designed very much for the physiological needs of the human body, creating a program for the body to pass through the ability to conserve energy, complete nutrition, enhance immunity repair, clean up the garbage in the body to complete the The whole process of rebuilding the body.
So don't ask me what results I'm going to have, frankly there are results that are inevitable, and there are definitely a lot of good results. Some of them are outwardly visible at once, and some of them are internal changes that can't be seen from the outside, but whether you can see it or you can't see it, if you admit that a good night's sleep will be very refreshing the next day, and that it means a lot to the body, then you have to believe in the value of letting your stomach, and letting your intestines, and that your liver, and that your whole physiological system all rest, and that it's worth its weight in gold.
So decades go by and you rarely give every organ of the body a reasonable amount of rest. This program of body cleansing, then, is about giving your entire physiological organs a rest one by one, so that you can get energy and give your body a chance to rebuild.
Well, that's it for today's program. Thank you all, you are truly blessed to enjoy something so good.
Q : Sensei, do I need to refuel during the detox?
R: There seems to be quite a bit of concern in asking if we need to add those oils that we commonly use during this detox. Oils help to detoxify fat-soluble toxins, and at the same time they help to aid in new cell growth and repair. However, in the case of someone who is just starting a detoxification program, the toxins that they are trying to clean up are layer upon layer, and they don't get to the fat-soluble toxins as quickly. Another part of it is that fat-soluble and water-soluble toxins in the detoxification process, it's the order, it's not very suitable to be confused together, so generally speaking, people who are just starting out, it's best to do the basic body cleansing first, for example, this time you do the body cleansing once every three days or five days, it's not refueling. Then what about the next round, you can refuel when you do the body cleanse, which is staggered rotation. Each time there is an intensive focus. For example, if you want to add oil, you can add lecithin, you can add wheat germ oil E, this carotenoid, add it in, the reason is because it's a complementary nutrient to the oil, it can also help to repair, all the cell membranes, tissue membranes, joint membranes, mucous membranes, so it's a whole other system that comes in. Theoretically, this is something that he's supposed to be staggering, the focus is supposed to be staggering. Okay, so if you're just starting out, it's best not to add oil, just use this vegetable and fruit juice with basic nutrition, and then it's best to go outdoors often, and then appropriate to get yourself moving, and then ah, interact with people, don't just sit there and wait, don't wait for a drink, especially for your own juice, don't just drink it one cup after another, but you should drink a glass of it. Then go out for a walk, come back in juicing for a drink, go out for a walk, maybe have a chat, come back in juicing, instead of sitting there all day waiting.
Q : Sensei then after detoxification, what should I do to resume eating?
R : Talking about the restoration of food ah well strictly speaking the practice of the Sunshine Forest, it is in the restoration of food with some domestic and foreign people talk about the kind of what the Valley ah fasting, really just drink water, eat a sesame seed kind of, it is the restoration of food on the problem. We are optimized safer methods, so strictly speaking, basically not too complicated compound food. Well, theoretically, the end of the body plot of the day, first eat something relative to the number of things, easy to digest and absorb things, and then gradually go to the second day of the third day slowly increase. Harder to digest meat ah kind of a process, but then with our actual experience in the past ten years, this seems to be not a big gap. This a little attention can be. You can't eat anything with a high oil content during the refeeding process. I just heard that Jiang Yan spoke of that meat dumplings ah this is very high, starch is very high fat, and this fat is still not good, fat, for example, like crayfish ah like that what that kind of Sichuan that kind of oil, oil is very high in that kind of hot pot, because the digestive oil is the most difficult to digest, and it needs bile to cooperate, and the detoxification process of the bile will be used for the detoxification, so it is likely to irritate the intestinal tract. Ah so this part of the food in the compound food to avoid as much as possible this first.
