An easy guide on how to break from a water fast safely.Fasting refers to the method of restricting food intake—for mandatory health reasons, as part of religious practice or for self-imposed dietary purposes. One type of fasting is water fasting. This means that a person does not consume anything, except water. Learning how to break from a water fast is important to know before you begin.
It is popular among those who are trying to lose weight quickly but aside from its weight loss benefits, water fasting also has significant health benefits. Studies have shown that it can help lower the risk of some chronic diseases including cancer, diabetes and heart disease. It is also linked with stimulating autophagy.
Autophagy is the process by which cells “degrade and recycle their components.” Autophagy helps provide fuel for energy and building blocks for cell renewal. It can also destroy bacteria and viruses after an infection. It was first discovered in the 1960s, but it was scientist Yoshinori Ohsumi who established its fundamental importance in the 1990s.
During a water fast, most people drink two to three liters of water per day. The absence of food allows the gastrointestinal system to rest and the digestive system to heal.
After the fast, which can be three to seven to twenty-one to even a forty day fast, the biggest no-no is to immediately consume a heavy meal. Not only will it cause discomfort, but it will also trigger abnormal hunger pangs that will lead to consuming excessive amounts of food.
The best way to go about it is gradually. Dr. Thomas Lodi, the founder of Arizona-based alternative cancer care center An Oasis of Healing, suggests starting off with melons, which are the most digestible food for adult humans. You can either eat them or juice them.
If you find you are unable to consume much of it, that’s perfectly normal. It is also advisable to stick to one kind of melon to avoid upsetting the stomach. For cancer patients, Dr. Lodi recommends green juices instead of melons as they are sweet.
How long should you stay on the melons or the green juice after a water fast? That depends on how long you’ve water-fasted. The best way to know is to listen to your body. Start introducing soups as you feel more comfortable, and eventually, you can transition back to your regular diet.
In supervised cases of longer periods of water fasting, up to 40 days in rare cases, a good rule of thumb to follow would be one to two days of melon or green juicing for every seven days of water fasting, and then on to blended soups, and salads followed by heavier meals.
Just remember the golden rule of breaking a water fast: Do not eat a big meal right away. For more helpful information on metabolic medicine and integrative oncology, check out the website for free resources or book an online consultation with Dr. Lodi.

Researchers have sequenced the genome of the tegu, Salvator merianae: a lizard that has taken an evolutionary step toward warm-bloodedness. It is also a highly desired pet, that can often be house-trained; unfortunately, as part of the exotic pet trade, it has been released in new environments and become a threat to local species. This extremely high-quality tegu genome sequence will be of use to researchers in the fields of evolution, physiology and ecology.This feed powered by Epigenetics And Nutrition

Do humans need to eat meat, not if health is a priority.We receive variations of this question do humans need to eat meat and we wanted to highlight a particular question from a follower. She submitted the question below on our Instagram account and Dr. Thomas Lodi replied which turned into a blog post. Read below for the question and answer.
“Hi! I have a question about your most recent post about the reasoning behind why humans are not meant to eat meat. While I definitely agree the standard American diet includes too much meat, how can we meet the recommended daily intake of Vitamin B12 without ingestion of meat or animal products?
As far as I know, there are no natural plant sources that contain enough of this vitamin to meet our daily needs? I’ve also been taught that Vitamin B12 supplements are never fully vegan/vegetarian and that they’re actually derived from animal products.
This is coming from one teacher I’ve had so I don’t know the validity of that information, but if there is such a thing as a truly vegan/vegetarian Vitamin B12 supplement, can a man-made supplement really be what humans were always meant to ingest? My intention is not to be argumentative, rather I’m asking purely out of curiosity and a desire to expand my knowledge base on the subject! Thank you!”
The following is Dr. Lodi’s reply to the above question which is a good one. His reply should help a number of people understand that meat is not required to be consumed in order to attain our proper levels of B12.
First of all, it needs to be understood that B12 production in nature only occurs in prokaryotes which is bacteria.
Nowhere else in nature is B12 produced. Therefore, we must get away from the false idea that eating an animal, or an animal product will provide us with B12 because the animals produce it. The fact is either the animal either ingested B12 and/or bacteria while they were eating.
Keep in mind that animals always have their mouths on the ground while eating. Hence, soil-based bacteria and feces loaded with bacteria are always entering their mouths. Additionally, animals may have bacteria in their upper gastrointestinal tracts, which produce B12 and then absorbed into their blood.
The main reason that most animals have B12 is a result of them eating their own feces. This is true especially of cows that are grazing but it is also true of dogs and elephants, etc.
It is important to note that we have bacteria that produce B12 in our intestines however, they reside in our colons, hence we cannot absorb it. B12 is absorbed only in the last part of the small intestine, called the ileum. Since the colon is distal to, i.e., downstream of the ileum, the B12 produced there cannot be absorbed.
Large-scale industrial production of B12 occurs via microbial fermentation predominately using three different bacterial species. There are 7+ species of anaerobic and aerobic species of bacteria that produce B12 naturally.
The question about whether or not a “manmade” supplement can be used (bioavailable) by the body is being put forth due to a misunderstanding. B12 is never manmade. It requires the metabolic machinery of bacteria to be produced.
It is fine to use B12 supplements as they are vegan/vegetarian. The only other alternative of actually obtaining B12 is not a favorable one for the majority of humans. It would require eating your own feces.
In conclusion, this leaves us with the two basic alternatives of either eating the corpse of an animal who did eat their own feces, or we can grow the bacteria that produce B12 to do so and then encapsulate it for oral use or prepared for injection.
A very interesting phenomenon occurs in some people. Studies coming from India where they have generational vegetarians and vegans show that since the animal protein is low to absent in these people’s colons due to their dietary habits, the B12 producing bacteria are able to migrate to the small intestines and when they (bacteria) produce B12, it can be absorbed in the ileum.
After replying to her with the answer and asking for permission to use her IG profile name, she replied, “Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me and clarifying this!! I’m currently a student of chiropractic and this question has been on my mind ever since it was brought up in one of my classes several months ago. Feel free to use my profile name! I’m sure others have wondered about this topic as well, so I think making a blog discussing this is a great idea :)”. Her IG handle/profile is: @tiluetkemeyer and we thank her for her question!

Nature is full of examples of large-scale collective behavior; humans also exhibit this behavior, most notably in pelotons, the mass of riders in bicycle races. Using aerial video footage of bicycle races, researchers analyzed peloton motion to determine what causes changes in the group's large-scale collective behavior and found that riders move through the peloton in a manner similar to circulation in a fluid.This feed powered by Epigenetics And Nutrition

This study reports on why there is a shortage of Oncologists in the US and Dr. Thomas Lodi shares his thoughts on this.Dr. Lodi recently wrote a blog post on his website and we felt it needed to be shared with our audience at An Oasis of Healing. The entire medical healthcare system needs to be flipped. In today’s society is almost feels like “health” is unattainable and this is false. The healthcare system needs to be focused on health and not disease management.
This study on a shortage of oncologists featured on the ASCO Post website is interesting but not as interesting as a study would be if it was designed to find out why cancer is increasing at such alarming rates. If cancer increasing at alarming rates could be understood then we might just eliminate those reasons and send all of our brightest minds to organic agriculture schools and naturopathic colleges or TCM or Ayurvedic programs to become practitioners of health rather than “disease”.
“Disease” is a myth that has been propagated upon the population for over 100 years now and serves as the principle upon which the medical model is based. We are born in hospitals (childbirth = “disease”) and begin receiving pharmaceutical concoctions on day 1.
We are then scheduled to follow up with physicians (pediatricians) at regular intervals. Parents, educators, legislators and those campaigning for public office (especially president), make it one of their primary concerns/promises to ensure that everyone has “disease insurance”, which is euphemistically referred to as ‘health insurance’.
We seek medical insurance because we are planning on becoming ill. One of the greatest lies ever perpetrated upon the human race is that ‘health is impossible and disease is inevitable’.
By the time we sit at our desks in 1st grade, we will have had > 28 vaccinations, antibiotics, decongestants, cough suppressants, anti-nausea, and diarrhea/constipation medications if we are relatively “healthy”. And now begins the process of ‘good citizen’ programming.
Unfortunately, those children who resist being placed in unnatural situations and follow their instincts to play and explore the world around them receive a diagnosis that requires more mediation that will subdue them and allow them to be chemically fit to attend school. Some children might be put on these drugs before they ever reach first grade since symptoms of ADHD very typically begin to appear between the ages of 3 and 6 years of life.
By the time a child reaches puberty, they are veteran medication consumers and everybody has a doctor. In fact, if you don’t have a doctor people consider you strange and cavalier or frivolous and irresponsible.
The lives of the modern “civilized” human being are centered around being sick. As a person progresses through life, they acquire more and more diagnoses, which are merely justifications for prescribing drugs (poisons).
Let us consider for a moment why we become so ill since clearly we were not fitted by nature to become dysfunctional early in life. Well, the root of all this is that humans do not think they are part of nature so they have built artificial environments in which to live and produce and eat “food” that is also artificial rather than natural. The problem is that we are part of nature and are subject to her laws hence our bodies adapt and these adaptations are called “diseases”.
Cancer is the adaptation at its finest. These cells have adapted to a situation where their fundamental modality of producing energy in order to function has been damaged significantly requiring them to produce energy in a very primitive manner. These cells actually are reduced to fermenting sugar in order to survive….much like microorganisms.
And, the medical model says that this adaptation is a “disease”, a horrible “disease” that must be eliminated at all costs. Therefore a war ensues between the “general”(doctor), the “soldiers” (nurses and technicians) and the adaptive fermenting cells (“cancer”).
This horrific battle takes place on the body of the unfortunate person who has already been poisoned from the day of conception. We now have two generations of mothers and fathers who were also victims of this tragic drama called modern civilization, based upon the medical model.
Most people die from the “treatment”, not the adaptive response of the body….not the cancer or the heart attack or the stroke. Let us not train more oncologists, let us make sure that they are no longer necessary.
