Also for what it’s worth, I’d recommend a water fast over juice feast. Sooooo much less work, easier, and during the water fast I felt a mental clarity I haven’t felt since childhood. The juice feast was a different story, I had crippling anxiety probably due to all of the sugars from the fruits. Everyone is probably different, but water fast all the way for me. A juice feast isn’t going to be a walk in the park either and it isn’t as cleansing. As for paleo, I’m gaining more weight in paleo than I was before due to fruits and potatoes, and nuts will gain a lot of weight (I personally don’t eat them cuz they make me worse), I wouldn’t veer from the paleo diet. It’s done massive improvements for me, and as soon as I cheat off it I get worse. Just follow the protocol my man, I had the same worries as you. There’s a reason CD laid it out this way.
