serotonin levels have been linked to anxiety, depression,
obesity, and insomnia, to name a few. A happy gut is a

When I wake up, I consume spring water with lime.

If you notice on various waters such as SmartWater, Fiji,

Dasani, and many more, they have enhanced minerals for

taste which are chemicals and not good for the body. But like

I would tell anyone, if you can’t afford spring water, some water

is better than no water because we need water to survive. I con-

sume a squeezed lime with my spring water in the morning
because limes are really good to help the body get rid of toxins,

boost immunity, promote weight loss, etc. en between 10

am and 12 noon, I consume fruits to break my fast. Yes, I said

break my fast, also known as breakfast in the western world.

When you are sleeping, your body is in a fasting state, so when

you consume solids for the first time you wake up, you break

your fast, also known as having breakfast. e body was really

fasting, but we call it sleeping. at’s why when you sleep, the

body can finally heal and repair itself because the digestive
system is at complete rest. Anytime you are not consuming

solids the digestive system is at rest.

ere are many fast one could do, but the three I recom-

mend are dry fasting, water fasting, and fruit fasting.
