Fasting FAQ: How do I break the fast?
Tom Coghill: "Carefully! Slowly! Breaking a fast is harder than fasting. Old patterns of indulgence and compulsive eating can return with a vengeance when you restart to eat. If you dream about pizza during a fast, you will be overcome by a “pizza urge” after you break the fast. Be careful what foods you think of during a fast. Over eating will cause pain as the body needs to wake up from the fasting state gradually. For a 30 days after fasting, continue to juice then eat small amounts of fruits and raw vegetables. Increase the amount as the body becomes hungrier. Wait 5 days before eating any cooked or protein food. Chew your food and maintain your peace."

Fasting FAQ: What should I eat after the fast?
Tom Coghill: "The post treatment diet is crucial to maintain your recovery, especially for cancer patients. The diet should be eighty percent raw fruits and vegetables. The best protein is egg white with only one yoke per day. Nuts are good if chewed well. Soybean is excellent. Boiled or baked fish (do not eat river fish commercially grown). Chicken is a good source of protein. To prepare meat and chicken, cut off the fats then boil it and pour off the fat. Stop eating processed oils and fried foods! The post cancer diet is 140 days including periodic shorter fasts. For most other chronic diseases, the post treatment diet period is 60 days. After that, you can eat more cooked or processed food or stay on the post treatment diet for life and enjoy vigorous health during retirement."
