Intestinal Cleanse before Fasting Walkthrough step by step

An Intestinal Cleanse may be the most important part of an extended dry fast. Don't try to skip this if you're going for longer than 3 days. If you're going for a shorter fast, find my protocol for a short fast preparation to avoid the phase I/II crash. This intestinal cleanse also includes a liver cleanse. A simpler version of the liver cleanse is included in the preparation protocols.

A lot of my recommendations for this have to do with your age, dry fasting experience, health markers, and diet. There is no one-size-fits-all and that's why it is always advised to have a mentor for your first dry fasts. That being said, the dry fasting club is meant to provide you with all the information you need to do this yourself if you were so inclined. As always this is informational only and should not substitute medical advice.

Intestinal cleansing, as the name implies helps you in clearing out the digestive tract. This can be done in a few ways.

Increasing your gut motility by taking a laxative
Eating less and lighter foods with a lot of fiber
Using a prokinetic to increase your Migratory muscle complex
Hydrocolonotherapy - Enemas
Doing liver and gallbladder flushes
The idea behind these is to clear blockages and avoid having waste fermenting and causing absorption of toxins during an extended fast. That's why the simplest way is to do a laxative cleanse. This involves using a laxative like magnesium citrate or magnesium sulfate (Epsom salts). You can also use Filonov's regular table salt method and a few other ones. Some people like to do enemas, but I've realized most people do not. Some people swear by them, so if it's something you're interested in, you can look into it further.

The simplest version I use is called the Juice Prep Protocol and you can see it under the protocols section. However, a lot of extended fasters swear by liver flushing. It's no doubt that the liver is the body's most important filter. Doing liver and gallbladder flushes forced bile to be evacuated quite drastically and this can have a really good cleaning effect. Some people call the stones released gallbladder stones, while others claim that they are simply a byproduct of the oil mixture.

Whatever the true mechanism, I believe that the main benefit is the bile flush and that the stones don't mean very much. You should always start small when trying new things and test them out first to make sure you do not have any dangerous reactions to them. For example, you should test small amounts of Epsom salts first to see at what point they produce a laxative effect and how much you can tolerate.

A cleanse can lead to detoxification crises, with possible side effects like headaches, lack of energy, skin impurities, constipation, bad breath, and increased perspiration. However, individual reactions vary as everyone's body is unique. When cleansing the bowel, it's crucial to set aside ample time for the process, as it can take hours or days for effects to manifest. Ensure you are drinking water, and juices with very high mineral content to replace Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, and Calcium. Lucky for us, most of these fruits and vegetables have all the other trace minerals too. Look for beets, celery, cucumber, ginger, carrot, and apples. Adopt a light, easily digestible diet to minimize strain on the intestines, and engage in gentle forms of movement to support digestion.
