I'm sorry you are not hungry. You should look into the possible reasons for that. Fasting is a complete contradiction to adrenal health. Besides, your whole body needs nutrition that juice alone cannot provide for you.

Hello!

Don't know anything about adrenal fatigue etc
but thought I'd throw in my limited fast experience.
Went on a Water Fast for about 9 days.
No job and parents on vac, so home alone.
Took enema daily, but sometimes just the thought of it-yuck!
Maybe it was stirring stuff up. Did get rid of some stool after
6 or more days of just voiding water back into the bowl.
Broke fast by going on vegetable juice on first day.- Pooped tomato seeds following am!
Second day went to fruit juices-WOW! Lots of energy and feeling great,
but folks coming home and knew they'd want to go "out" to eat so had to
start eating. Steamed apples, bananas and raisins, dumped in plain yogurt
for my first meal.
Know if I ever decided to fast again I would go with juices rather than water.
I think it's great that you're not even hungry.
Seems to me like your body is agreeing that it needs a rest.
I haven't tried MC, are you suppose to use salt water flush?
(Wonder why that, as opposed to enemas)
Anyway it seems since you're not experiencing a lot of distress
you should just continue and see what happens.
Wish you the best. Margie

Hi,

I have a cyclic hormonal disease (just diagnosed) which causes times of adrenal insufficiency, as well as adrenal overproduction (ie. excess cortisol), and it has taken out other hormones, like thyroid, growth hormone and vitamin D (which is a natural steroid). I've probably had the disease my whole life, but it's gotten pretty bad recently, which led me to seek help from a doc and helped me get diagnosis (a brain tumor).

I'm a longterm fasting pro. I believe that with my fasts, I cause the source of my hormonal ailments to go away, or almost completely go away. However, after the fast, I repeat a cycle of becoming ill again. The reason is because I may be predisposed to this particular disease and if I don't continue watching my diet and health, the disease comes back. It's a matter of genetic predisposition, the cycle continues until you do something to stop or stunt it. This may be something for you to consider, since you say you have multiple hormone imbalances.

Also you may know that low appetite is a symptom of adrenal fatigue. Google it and you'll find tons of information.

I know that I too, crave fasting. I totally believe it's a natural response for our bodies, when we're in a bad health state. Dogs eats grass or fast when they're sick, why wouldn't humans be made with the same instinct???

I'm planning another fast, but this time I know what is causing my health issues, and perhaps how to deal with it when my fast is over.

Oh yes, detox is always a good idea first. Your first fasting days will go so much better this way! And I've never been a fan of drinking one juice for x amount of days. It just doesn't make sense to me. A good juice diet of greens, carrots, apples, wheatgrass, water, herbal tea, etc. sounds so much healthier since it brings so much more nutrients to the table...

Message me anytime, and best of health to you!

I have adreanal fatigue and I have wondered the same thing. I am never hungry but I can drink just fine. I have been taking spirulina tablets to compensate the nutrients, drinking v8 and also taking damo in the v8. I am feeling better then before and am thinking that I may actually lose some freakin weight this way. Fingers crossed for me and good luck to you. P.s., I could have been the one to write what you did. Our stories are identical!
