You can’t afford not to fast–considering we live in a toxic world. Dr. Don Colbert, author of the bestsellers “Toxic Relief “and the Bible Cure series, provides a twenty-eight-day protocol for detoxifying the body of harmful toxins that is designed to restore you to health–body, mind, and spirit.

Who is the author?

The author is Dr. Don Colbert, who the description says wrote the bestsellers “Toxic Relief” and the “Bible Cure” series.

What does the description argue about fasting?

It says “you can’t afford not to fast”, because we live in a “toxic world”. That is the description’s position, and this page does not endorse it. Fasting is not right for everyone, so anyone considering it should talk to a doctor.

What is Get Healthy Through Detox and Fasting about?

The Amazon description says the book gives a 28-day protocol for detoxifying the body, which it describes as designed to restore health of body, mind and spirit. That is the description’s wording, not a claim made here.

Summary of the book description only, not medical advice.

What should I know about fasting protocols before reading?

Some programs ask people to cut foods, drink only certain fluids or fast for days. Only a small number of studies have looked at “detoxification” programs in people, and the NCCIH detox page calls those studies low quality, with design problems and few participants. It adds that there are no studies on long-term effects.

A 28-day plan is a long commitment, and it deserves the questions you would put to any health program: What does it restrict? Who designed it? What happens if I have a medical condition? What do I do if I feel unwell? Fasting, in particular, can cause headaches, fainting and dehydration, according to the same source.

Restoring health is a worthy goal, but “detoxifying” is not a medical process. Anyone with a long-term illness, anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding and anyone taking medicines should speak with their doctor before changing how they eat.
