Is it mandatory? And can i be safe wihout cleansing?
If i have to do it what do you recommend?
So many variables. How long do you plan on fasting?
Will get very different answers based on your dietary preference. Many people are Carnivore and many Vegan.
If I am fasting over 3 days then I try to eat clean - real food the week before and 24-48 hours prior I go all liquids.
Smooth move tea and/or salt water flush first thing in the AM are great ways of releasing the bowels. Don’t start the fast the same day as a flush. Rehydrate first.
Hope that is helpful. Also mentally prep for the breaking of the fast and going slow. That is the most important and most challenging part.
If you search Dr. Filonov you will find the stuff he recommends to clean out the stomach prior to an extended fast. I have ordered and used. Cannot hurt.
Fasting is about letting the body “do its thing”. Because it “knows better” than you.
My general stand is that forcing the body to do anything (even cleansing, purging, etc.) is not aligned with the principles of fasting.
But, you know, that’s probably just me.
