On a 6 day juice fast, what specific physical occurrence/s cause this symptom (please read details)? I am looking for a scientific explanation. I%26#039;m not being rude to anyone here, so please don%26#039;t be rude to me.

The feeling is like not getting enough oxygen from breathing. Like the way you feel in your chest when you hold your breath for a long time.


Please don%26#039;t simply say that I am starving. I could think of that one all by myself.

Thanks for your replies.

It%26#039;s definitely not metabolic acidosis, and definitely not a vitamin or mineral deficiency.

The assertion that you should consult a physician before going on a diet is folly. Just as dumb as living off nothing but taco bell, little debbie, and mister pibb (which is exactly what I had been doing for a year).

But the idea that it could be caused by a food allergy is actually intelligent.

However, I do believe that I%26#039;ve found the culprit: not enough carbs.

Best Answer

First of all, get off the diet immediately. It could very well be nothing wrong with the diet, but that doesn%26#039;t mean your body won%26#039;t react to it poorly. As with any diet, even a short term one, your doctor should be consulted before going on it. He may be able to point out potential problems with you specifically going on the diet. For example, some prescriptions you are on may be totally nullified if you drink grapefruit juice, although this will generally be specified somewhere on the prescription bottle.

It may be also that you are allergic to something in the juices you are taking; perhaps something that never manifested before this diet because you never had that item in such quantity before. This could be causing you to feel out of breath.

When you say things like %26quot;First off, get off the diet%26quot;, people lose respect for you. Well, they do if you are on yahoo answers. People are asking for knowledge, not orders.

I picked your answer, because the allergy thing was the most intelligent of the three answers I got.
