I’m fighting candida overgrowth right now and reading the Candida Cure but the diet would be a hard sell on my family. Rather than do that, I’m hoping fasting will be far more effective (and less difficult for my family) than changing everything in our kitchen and grocery list.

Thank you for sharing – this could not have come my way at a more perfect time. I have been toying with elimination diets because I am also in the holistic health space motivated by my own personal health issues, particularly in the gut and hormonal imbalances, everything is connected, and I can totally feel from the inside that my PCOS is on its way to healing! To quickly share a little more, I am now, more so than ever, just finding myself in shock about my doctors taking out my gallbladder years ago from a few gb attacks (long story of why I was having these that western medicine was never able to explain to me) and it makes me sad that I could have saved my organ through holistic practices but I had zero guidance or knowledge in this space at the time. This is just one example of many ailments that were an opportunity to get to the root cause but were missed. And it’s honestly all fine, even good – because here I am now pursuing my calling of helping others holistically & spiritually! Anyway, my question is if you just started out with 1 day would you still reap benefits vs the 3 days you did? I don’t think I can commit to 3 days of an environment that supports fasting, but I could certainly do 1-2 days. Curious of your thoughts – thanks!! <3

Hi Jordan! Just found your webpage, so glad! I’ve got chronic hives for more than 2 years now.. they said it can’t be healed, but it’s been more than 2 months with no rashes and only itchiness.. I’m same with the parasites, clensing myself by all possible means. Have you ever heard of Hulda Clark’s book?

Never heard of water fasting as a remedy though, will try one day fasting asap!

Lot’s of love!

it IS overwhelming when there is so much info coming out about everything!!! I don’t put pressure on myself to learn it all / know it all… but rather I try to stick to what I am most interested in, and somehow the knowledge just flows because I am constantly researching from so many different types of experts. I would say never get locked into reading / learning from just ONE kind of expert (i.e. just vegans, just paleo, just functional medicine docs, just Ayurveda, etc.) because then it will be hard to have a wide range of info under your belt. right now I am reading a book by the Medical Medium AND a book by functional medicine doc Dr. Mark Hyman!! its all about balance — even though the books contradict each other ra bit I find I am getting a lot of info so that at the end of the day I can listen to MY body above all else <3 <3 hope this helps!!

omg, thank you so much for sharing this with me. I will look into it deeper. I am doing a lot on the parasite front right now so don’t worry, but I so so appreciate you sharing this!! x

I don’t think I would ever try it but it definitely interests me. However, I’m really worried about your parasite, especially if there are worms in your stool! That’s a pretty serious infection which maybe can’t be healed with just water-fasting. Also, the supplements you recommend, HumaWorm, received a warning letter from the FDA (https://www.fda.gov/ICECI/EnforcementActions/WarningLetters/2017/ucm540966.htm)

Ugh, I have been battling them for years. Interestingly enough I found out that mine are caused mostly from high histamine foods. As in vinegars, tomatoes, certain spices. All of which I love! You should check into this if you haven’t already for your hives/rash. Healing vibes to you!! Loving your podcasts!!

It’s amazing how our bodies know how to heal themselves when we give them the chance to do so. I can’t wait to watch your journey and how you figure out what healing techniques and wellness routines work for you and in doing so introduce them to me and your readers.

I did have a question for you stemming from that thought above: how do you keep yourself up to date with all of the new wellness tips and tricks that are coming through the wellness circuit? I find myself getting overwhelmed, which makes me want to hide in the corner, when I realize there are so many new things coming about that I can’t keep up with. I love nutrition and have a huge passion for holistic healing but I feel like I’m always out of date with the new trends and tips/tricks. Also, is there a way to really self-care while staying on a budget? Massages obviously add up fast, but I am curious what your recommendations would be for self-care routines and what the most budget-friendly routines are.

Thanks, and happy healing!
