Periodic fasting has been used for generations to heal people of various conditions, rejuvenate the body and improve mental clarity or simply to improve health.  Fasting allows the body to take a rest from the process of digesting food and concentrate on cleansing.  When fasting, our body’s cells have a chance to clean out toxins accumulated in our body from the environment we live in.

In a fasting state, cells will detoxify, or rid themselves of foreign material such as metabolic waste products, or pesticide residue that is sprayed on our food crops.  During fasting, our body’s cells will also rid themselves of any excess stored energy, better known as adipose tissue or fat.  Overall, fasting allows the body to rid itself of unnecessary substances and to function more efficiently.

There are various methods of fasting, including pure water fasting and juice fasting, although there is debate whether juice fasting is actually fasting, or just a modified diet.  Over the past 30 years, Dr. Ferguson has fasted periodically and has supervised others.  She has witnessed the many benefits of fasting and cleansing programs including:

·        Increased energy

·        Clarity of mind

·        Clearer complexion

·        Rejuvenation

·        Overall better health

Before you begin any program, Dr. Ferguson will take your full medical history, do a physical exam and run any necessary lab work.    The type of cleansing program depends on your personal choice and your state of health.

Dr. Ferguson will come to your location, for one person or a group of people, and supervise fasting.  She is available locally in the greater Phoenix, East Valley and Prescott, Arizona areas.  Generally, after the initial intake and okay to go on a program, a person can fast at home and contact Dr. Ferguson by phone as needed.  If you have   the location to do a fasting retreat with a group of people, Dr. Ferguson will come there, set up the program and supervise all aspects of it from beginning to end.  If you have a group of people who want to do a fasting retreat, Dr. Ferguson can find a location for you and set up a program.  Fees can be negotiated.
