I’m in trouble... you can just about stand a spoon in my morning coffee. I mix Starbucks Italian Roast beans with some Starbucks Columbian... about 50/50 and do an extra half grind per pot.
This will be my new focus as it needs to be a part of my next fast.
I’ve found fasting is critically important for spiritual cleansing as it causes the enterochromaffin cells in the lining of the stomach and intestine to stop creating 5-HTP, the precursor to serotonin. A decrease in available serotonin in the body removes the emotional shock absorber from the nerve junction or synaptic cleft and all my old emotional child garbage comes to the surface for cleansing.
Carb craving is the flip side of fasting as carb consumption increases 5_HTP production.
Thanks for posting this thread again.... I just realized it was posted the same week last year(2015) and in 2014.
