Page 10 - Fasting Will Change You_interior-v3.indd

This is what happens to the body when you don’t
Fast/Cleanse

Arnold Ehret uses a perfect analogy. Imagine if your car runs on

gasoline and you keep putting sand in the gas tank. Sooner or

later something will go out, right? Yes, most likely the engine will

stop working. Imagine the engine is your heart, and the only way

to get all the sand out is to get an oil change. This will give the

car a reset to function properly, by taking the bad things out and

putting the good things in.

What did we learn from this? You can’t keep putting sand

in a car that runs on gasoline because the engine will go out,

AKA your heart. The reason you need to fast/cleanse the body

is because if you are eating mucus forming foods that leaves

behind a sticky residue inside the body sooner or later the body

gets clogged up and things will not be able to function how they

should. This could lead to a heart attack or stroke because your

heart is working in overload.
