How to Do a Potato Fast for Weight Loss

The potato fast is a great way to clean your system and lose 10 pounds while soothing your digestive tract at the same time. We recommend that you see "How to Understand a Potato Fast" and consult your doctor before engaging in this fast.

Instructions

1

Choose potatoes that are organically grown, small in size, but heavy for their size. Avoid potatoes with skin discolorations such as dark brown or green spots.

2

Eat only potatoes, morning, noon and night, for two to four days. Eat them baked, mashed, steamed, roasted, and juiced, but never fried.

3

Season your potatoes with chives, mint, cumin, turmeric, fennel, caraway, paprika, dill, nutmeg, rosemary and fresh garlic. Use potato juice or herbal teas to aid in making mashed potatoes, but never add milk.

4

Leave the skins on the potatoes. The skins account for over 75% of the potato's mineral value.

5

Drink plenty of water and herbal teas. Use potato peels to make tea. Or make herbal teas to target specific ailments you may be dealing with. While your body is fasting it is particularily available to other treatments you may induce. Corn silk tea, burdock, nettle, yarrow, and dandelion root tea are all excellent teas to make during a potato fast.

6

Utilize an internal bath or enema at the end of your fast to help clear your colon of toxins.

7

Break your fast by adding fruits and vegetables to your diet of potatoes for a full day before introducing other foods.
