Fasting is the process when the body does not get the typical meal for a particular period. Fasting with Spirulina is an easy thing. Half of the day does not count as fasting. Fasting can last longer than one week or a few days without solid food. No steaks, pizza, or fast food. People can drink water or juices only. Individuals who want to fast must be healthy or check their health condition with a competent health practitioner.
Fasting with Spirulina is efficient and natural way to flush waste and toxins out of body without restricting the body from needed nutrients for complete and active metabolism. Spirulina is a source of nutrition during dieting or fasting. Algae has 62-71 percent protein. It is beneficial because it cleans the intestines and relaxes the bowels’ smooth muscles. Spirulina pigment phycocyanin and amino acids are natural sources of enzymes that balance metabolism and digestive health. Besides, Spirulina is easily digestible and assimilates well.
Plenty of people do fast one day a week. You drink just water during the day. When people fast for two, three, or more days, the body gets a chance to get rid of waste and toxins and rejuvenate itself.
Fasting is beneficial for the body. In this way, people feel stronger after fasting. The mind is clear, and the body is light and flexible.
How does it happen?
The digestive system is a complex system where the food is digested and elevated as waste after absorption. If all organs work properly, we get all the nutrients from food. The human intestine is about 90 feet long. When food is with fibers, it helps the bowels to move the weight of food through the intestines.
When food goes slowly through the digestive tract, it becomes sluggish and can fill pockets in the large intestine. The food in pouches does not go out. It stays here. Disgusting? Yes.
According to Christopher Hills,
The food which stays in the stomach, intestines, and colon for longer than normal periods of 24 hours is apt to create fermentation and acid conditions.
The liver and kidneys are forced to work overtime which results in susceptibility to infections.
We do not know it. We feel that our jeans do not button up so easily. The size of the clothes increases.
When our pipes do not work
When food is processed, and chemicals are in it, it congests the intestine more easily. Chemicals go into the blood with other food particles, and they poison the blood.
When food is nutritious and fresh, the body gets all the needed nutrients. Unfortunately, we do not always eat great food. Fasting helps to eliminate toxins from the body.
Fasting with Spirulina
Spirulina is a great helper during the fasting process. The Spirulina is low in calories. Spirulina has all the nutrients for the body to function well. Spirulina digests quickly.
When we fast, we do not use solid food. When we drink water, take Spirulina, and consume fruits and vegetables, the body is capable rid of waste.
Do we have waste inside us?
Yes, and yes. We have plenty of waste in our bowel tissues. How does it happen? The food is not as before when ancestors ran after prey and ate plenty of greens.
I know that it is boring to talk about food quality nowadays. Unfortunately, the number of obese people is growing steadily.
According to scientists, obesity is the first place, followed by cancer and other chronic diseases.
There is nothing wrong with being bigger or having more weight than models. Most importantly, we would be as healthy as human beings. We are all different because our genes are different.
Skinny people can gain weight and carry plenty of waste in their bowels in the same way as fat people.
Fasting with Spirulina
When people do not eat solid food, the body starts to digest and remove all unwanted particles. People may feel a headache because of toxins and long-standing food in the bowel withdrawn from the body. The water and juice from fruits or vegetables flush toxins.
Is algae solid food?
Spirulina is not a solid food that could get stuck in your intestines. Spirulina helps clean the intestines with the aid of chlorophyll. At the same time, amino acids from Spirulina provide the body with the needed support in metabolic processes.
Spirulina is low in calories and has all the vital nutrients. The body can function well without great digestion during fasting. Thankfully, the body gets all enzymes, proteins, vitamins, amino acids, and minerals from Spirulina.
Spirulina is a source of nutrition. It helps cleanse the intestinal tract naturally. You will feel energetic and not starving. The body does not feel hunger through fasting because Spirulina helps maintain the balance of vital nutrients for the body’s metabolism and performance. Fasting with Spirulina helps the body regain vitality and strength.
Wrapping up
The excess weight is no fun to look at from every angle. It hurts the body, image, and mental health of some people. I know many big people who are happy. I do not go inside them. Maybe it is a mask; who knows?
Spirulina helps return to the well-being state of the body when unnecessary pounds of waste and toxins are flushed out. What is beneficial is that you do not feel hungry, usually during the first days of fasting.
Algae provide all needed nutrients for metabolism during fasting without stuffing your intestines and digestive system.
Additionally, Spirulina helps maintain and clear your body during fasting, but also, your mind becomes purified from toxins. You can see things clearly because of a rejuvenating brain, too.
How about that?
Derek Marshall says
Hi there,
Fasting is difficult to start out with but it actually gets progressively easier with time. I tend to fast with just coffee and water. Coffee is actually rich in antioxidants and an appetite suppressant. A banana may be used if I am fasting for a long period of time, for energy!
Nemira says
Hello, Derek. Interesting combination: coffee and water. I wonder how long do you fast?
michael says
I enjoyed reading your article. I never knew that waste stay in our systems even if we are having regular bowl movements and are eating somewhat healthy.
I have never fasted — but will consider it in the near future.
Do you fast regularly? If so how often do you do it, and do you use spiritual?
Nemira says
Hello, Michael. Unfortunately everybody of us has in our intestine something what does not belong here. Sedentary life style, processed and overcooked food, sweets and soda consumption makes our bowels lazy. Pockets are in some of the bowels. They stuck with food which does not move freely because the movement of bowls is sluggish.
The Bible describes the importance of fasting. Before Christmas and Easter people fasted longer, not just half of day.
There are many details why do we need to fast. What is most important that when we fast, the body unclogs with the help of liver, kidneys and skin all poisons which accumulate inside us.
My fasting consists of juice and Spirulina. The longest fasting was 4 days. I eat just blended apples. After it, I felt so light. I was safe with fasting because I knew from doctor that I can do it.
You asked about spirituality. I think that everybody has own beliefs. Everybody feels what is good for them.
Overall, after fasting I feel happy. My mind works clearly, my jeans button easily.
You must decide what is good for you, that your body needs. All the best, Nemira.
James says
I never knew about the intestine holding food and how the food moves slowly through the digestive tract I am going to have to talk to doc if I can fast without hurting me I am 61
Nemira says
Hi, James. Of course, it is better to talk with your doctor. Everybody can fast just it depends on how you tolerate breaks without food. It is an ancient tradition. People before Easter use fasting. I can not fast without any food. I can use Spirulina for fasting. It does not have so many calories. I need to drink water. For me, the best intermittent fasting is when I start to eat before noon. I f I count hours without having food it would be 16-17.You need to analyze how you feel. Never force yourself if something is painful for you or you feel what something is wrong.
All the best, Nemira.
James says
The only time i had fasted was for only 24 hours,after reading your article I found it very informative The information that you gave about the intestines holding excess food has me wondering,now that you brought this to my attention I am going to ask my doc if Icould fast
Nemira says
Hello, James. The fasting with Spirulina is different because when you consume Spirulina you get all vital nutrients. You body does not starve. However, you do not get plenty of calories. With the minimum of calories you have plenty of energy and your body can take care of unwanted fat. Of course you need to drink liquids such as filtrated water. You need to listen your body. If something is unclear, is best to consult with smart health practitioner.
All the best, Nemira.
Mae says
Hello! Thank you for sharing all these information. I’ll begin with intermittent fasting tomorrow and see the results. I’ve been wanting and praying to lose weight and live healthily. I believe my prayer has been answered. Will keep you posted. God bless everyone.
Nemira says
Hello there. Thanks for the comment. If you will do not eat junk food, will exercise in a moderate way, not hurting yourself, and giving your body, what it needs, you will lose weight. Nobody was born obese. Our lifestyle makes tricks on us. Be sure drink water with some minerals such as magnesium and follow knowledgeable practitioners advice. One of the best is Dr. Carolyn Dean, M.D., N.D.
Spirulina is great nutraceutical food. Be sure to use organic Spirulina. Be healthy and Wealthy, Nemira.
Maria Peterson says
I am currently on a regular 16-8 cycle of fasting. I am curious whether taking 3 to 6 grams of organic pressed tablet spirulina will break my fast during my 16 hours? Blood sugar management is important and I was thinking that by taking 3-6 grams of spirulina every 4 hours during the fasting period I would get valuable nutrients and help even out blood sugar
Nemira says
Hi, Maria, thanks for the comment. I know that people can live taking Spirulina for long years without having any more food. It means that you will not have any break from nutrients if you take every four hours. It will not be intermittent fasting.
Spirulina does not harm in any way. However, we all are different. It is best to check with your knowledgeable health practitioner or nutritionist.
Be healthy and wealthy, Nemira.
