Fasting is a discipline that has gained wide recognition and acceptance in both natural health and conventional medical circles. Done correctly, regular fasting can yield wonderful benefits to your health, and supercharge your weight optimization program. If you’re new to fasting, or you want to learn how to maximize the benefits of your current fasting regimen, this episode of the SuperHealth Podcast is for you.
Today’s topic is based on my new book, The Super Health Diet: The Last Diet You Will Ever Need! This highly acclaimed work is the result of my decades of study and research into weight optimization and natural wellness. Micro-fasting is a key precept from Chapter 11, The Dynamic Role of Proteins in Weight Loss.

KC: Welcome to Living Fuel TV. I’m KC Craichy. So, you want to eat only vegetables for an extended period of time, but you don’t want to lose your muscle. How do you do that? Well, we talked in the previous segments about protein being one of those answers. Protein or essential amino acids are really the answer. If you are in that position where you’ve decided that you’re only going to eat vegetables for whatever reason, for detox, or you’re turning into a vegetarian or whatever the case may be.
We talked about the Fuel Fast in previous segments, and I asked you to go back and look at those because the Fuel Fast is an extraordinarily powerful technique that can give you everything you need to accomplish your health goals from a completely vegetable source. Right now though, if you just want to eat vegetables and broths and soups and that sort of thing, how can you make it healthy.
One thing we talk about in the Super Health Diet, the last diet you’ll ever need, is called micro fast. The micro fast. So micro fast, all that means is micro nutrients. Now, we talked earlier about juice fasting and the problems with juice fasting and the benefits, but the problems being that there’s some micro nutrients. It’s still missing a lot of micro nutrients but it’s missing macro, being carbohydrates and fats and proteins and fibers and so on. How do you accomplish this and still maintain the integrity of your vegetable fast?
The micro fast essentially would be essential amino acids. You can live on essential amino acids instead of protein because when you take protein, what you’re getting is your body is deriving the essential amino acids out of the protein. If you start out and you know what vegetable program you want to eat, whether it’s vegetable juice or a salad or soups or whatever the case may be, if you’ll take essential amino acids before and during that meal, you will have the effect of having a large amount of protein, extremely powerful protein response in the body, and you have all the benefits of vegetables.
Now, we also would recommend that you also take a multivitamin, a multioxidant, a multimineral, including probiotics and those sort of things, but this technique actually is extraordinarily low calorie. In fact, you can micro fast on the multivitamin, multimineral, multioxidant, the essential amino acids, and the essential fatty acids. If you have these components, you literally can have an entire day with virtually no calories and get all the nutrients that you need. It’s an extraordinary weight optimization technique. I write about it in chapter 11 of the Super Health Diet. I invite you to check it out.
Hope this was helpful to you. God bless you, and have a great day.
