Default Re: about to colon cleanse - what\'s gonna happen to me?

[ QUOTE ]
There could be something built in biologically at a very low level. Many plants have a mechanism where when they are severely stressed they put all their energy into reproduction (eg. flowers and pollen) and abandon maintaining their bodies. Any time a tree that normally blooms sporadically suddenly explodes into a massive bloom, it means it's about to die.

this is the main point here I think, if I understand the argument.

normally the body's energies are balanced in a certain way, and by fasting these energies can be distributed in a different way.

in other words, by fasting, certain parts or segments or systems of the body can be revved up with more energy than they would normally get.

I mean that's the theory anyway from what I understand.

I mean if it can happen to the sexual system, which is true because it is observable, then at least in theory it can happen with other systems, right?
