Advanced Digestive Formula
What to do if I'm experiencing digestive issues after breaking a prolonged fast?
Digestive issues you could experience after breaking a prolonged fast:
• Diarrhea
• Loose stool
• Gas
• Abdominal pain
• Bloating
• Nausea
This could happen because, basically, your digestive system has gone to sleep, and it hasn’t woken up yet. You don’t want to eat a large meal after a long fast because you will overload your system. You need to start small.
If you’ve done a fast for 48-72+ hours, the best thing to do would be to start with some cooked vegetables and broth. Then you would want to wait for two hours and then consume 3 oz. of protein that’s easy to digest, like fish, chicken, or an egg. You could also do a small amount of avocado.
Foods to avoid after a long fast:
• Nuts and nut butters
• Red meat
• Raw cruciferous vegetables
• Dairy products
