Chris James, founder of A Healthy Alternative, shares his transformative journey of losing 90 pounds and reversing chronic health conditions through fasting and natural approaches to health. He reveals how fasting can be used as a fundamental therapy for weight loss, disease reversal, and emotional healing.
• Fasting as a multi-layered healing approach that promotes hormonal regulation, stem cell production, and prevents loose skin during rapid weight loss
• Long-term fasting (beyond 10 days) can trigger emotional and mental detox, releasing stored trauma and balancing energetic states
• Proper preparation before fasting is crucial, including opening elimination pathways and gradually transitioning to higher water content foods
• The liver is the master detoxification organ, and using castor oil packs can help break up sludge and improve liver function
• Regular hydration and eating water-rich foods like cucumbers are essential for proper elimination
• Community support dramatically increases success with fasting and dietary changes
• The body naturally seeks homeostasis—our job is simply to remove obstacles in its way
For a free seven-day fasting prep guide that can help you lose 7-12 pounds, find Chris on Instagram @ahealthyalternative and send him a DM asking for the prep guide.
