The Daniel Fast

Fasting has been relied on for thousands of years as a way of curing all sorts of injuries and ailments. Think of fasting as a way of hitting the old reset button on the body. And the results show it has a number of benefits. Fasting lowers blood sugar levels and helps with weight loss. The Daniel Fast runs 21 days and is a great way to gear up for healthier eating. This fast cuts sugars, meats, dairy and all beverages other than water out of your diet. All forms of oil and fat are also out as well as iodized salt (Himalayan salt is ok!)

The Daniel fast is steeped in religious history and it literally came straight from the bible. While the godly undertones might not be what you’re looking for, you can’t deny that those religious folks sure knew how to get a good fast on! If you have any health concerns regarding fasting, speak to your doctor first. Otherwise, fasting could be just what the new, healthier you need to get going!
