The Full Moon is the elimination phase and the key to losing weight is detoxing; the elimination period lasts for 3 days.

Hi can you please tell me where to get more info about adaptogens during fasting? I feel my cortisol and blood sugar get all out of whack when fasting…and it doesn’t feel good for me. Never been able to fast properly and love the idea of using the moon cycle and adaptogens to support myself. Thanks x
