I've found a couple of good websites talking about doing a fast with green smoothies. Just making and eating those for 3-5 days. Anyone tried it? Any opinions about fasting while dealing with the "B's" of Lyme?

Thanks for everyone's input.

Good nutrition is extremely important when fighting Lyme and co. Our immune function depends on it, so be careful you get all of the necessary vitamins and minerals and protein.

Thanks, I do feel like I've eaten so clean for well over 1 1/2 years now as evident by me losing 50pds. Just frustrated that I'm not better yet????? Just looking for any edge to get me well again?????

My sense is, if your intuition, and your body is asking for something, it is wise to listen to it. Stephen Buhner has a book about fasting I hope to get one day... he suggests, if one has a serious illness, to consult a medical professional before fasting (for a water fast).

Great for help with inflammation - from the link -
* A number of studies have found that fasting is effective for treating both osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Fasting induces significant antiinflammatory actions in the body and researchers found decreased ESR, arthralgia, pain, stiffness, and need for medication.
