On 20 November 2006 I started a 92-day juice FEAST in Costa Rica. Not fast…FEAST :) This is a new concept in cleansing, which ensures the feaster gets all their daily calories (e.g. around 1500/day for an average woman) directly from freshly-made raw juices.
Usually when fasting, many people become low in energy and feel weak, on this juice feast my life goes on with as much energy and creativity as usual…
My main reason for doing this is that even after four and a half years having raw food lifestyle, I felt I'd reached a 'plateau' with my detoxing. I’ve lost around 12 stone since going raw, reversing morbid obesity, but still have old toxins and strange fat deposits to clear that weren't shifting with a raw lifestyle alone.
I felt I wanted to take it to the next level. Then David Rain of
www.nutrientdensenutrition.com told me about juice feasts. I was
dubious at first, but listened and it started to make sense. I decided
to take the leap and clear out all the old clutter once and for all -
any parasites lurking, old toxins, liver complaints etc...so...here I
am...46
da
ys in as I write and loving it :)
So far I’ve lost around 15lbs, experienced incredible releases of old matter from my colon and seen my skin become more radiant. I seem to be healing old pancreas issues too, which I’m delighted about.
I’ve been blogging my adventures at http://rawreform.blogspot.com and along with a readership that grows daily, this blog is attracting much media interest. I have an interview lined up on Sally Jesse Raphael’s radio show in a few days, in New York, along with another planned feature for Current TV and interest from various magazines.
I’m delighted to be able to share this message of healing and wish everyone a vibrant and joyous 2007 :)
Hey Angela, really looking forward to keeping up with your blog. I was wondering how you could tell that you have strange fat deposits and toxins etc., still in your body. Is it something you just knew yourself or did you have to get someone professional to asses you?

Hi Claudia,
I know for myself that my body still holds old waste, as that is one of the main roles of fat - that it wraps toxins to protect us, so as my body has held so much fat in my life, it has also held a huge amount of toxins that are still not totally drained from my system - for example, on my head I have benign fat cysts of old matter that has not yet cleared - this is the kind of bizarre thing my body needed to create to deal with all the toxins I was fuelling it with...
All blessings,
Angela. x
