by Drs. Robert and Elizabeth McCarter
The Transition Phase (Fruit-Juice Diet)
6 a.m.
Out of bed Stretching exercises. Enema (optional for those who don't like enemas). Lukewarm shower or bath.One cup of herb tea (your choice). Warm, not hot. You may flavor your tea with one teaspoon of honey, if desired. Use pure water.
Brisk walk or some other form of exercise, such as calisthenics, swimming horseback riding, tennis, etc. Change your exercise routine regularly so that different muscles are used.
11 a.m.
8 ounce glass of fresh fruit juice, preferably grape, apple, or orange, diluted half and half with pure water. Always dilute fruit juices in this manner so as to avoid calcium loss. Rinse mouth.1 p.m.

However, in certain areas it may be difficult to obtain fresh fruits during the winter season. In this case, use dried fruit. Just soak overnight in pure water to cover. Do not cook.

The word 'fast' implied total abstinence from food, the individual having recourse only to pure water. Quicker results can usually be obtained from a total fast with complete bed rest, using only pure water as needed. Our transition regimen should correctly be called a juice-fruit diet and excellent results will be forthcoming if it is faithfully followed. Severe cases, of course, should go on a complete fast, but only under the supervision of an experienced practitioner and in an institution away from disturbances of any kind.
On our juice-fruit diet you will probably have no need for additional liquid. However...
