Marva Ohanyan - conditional fasting: detailed description by day

Naturopathic doctor Marva Ohanyan told many people about what conditional fasting is and how this technique can lead a person to full health. With this approach, it is not just the cleansing of any individual organs and tissues, but all cells of the body. We have prepared for you a detailed description of each day, which will allow you to apply conditional fasting yourself.

The main essence of the Ohanyan method is that it involves abstaining from food for several weeks. At the same time, a person can drink infusions and decoctions of herbs with honey and lemon, so the feeling of hunger does not become too acute. All adults tolerate such a refusal of food acceptably, but children find it especially easy.

Conditioned fasting according to Marva Ohanyan is very suitable for modern people. This is due to the fact that nowadays people’s bodies are much more polluted than they were a couple of decades ago. And the methods of that time are already turning out to be ineffective, and some of them are even fatal.

During the process of fasting, the human body begins to release all previously accumulated waste and toxins. If there are too many of them in tissues, organs, and liquids, then a sudden surge of impurities (for example, during fasting on distilled water) can cause acute conditions and illnesses. It can be even worse if a person does not know about his predisposition to certain diseases. When fasting, they begin to open up and can lead to the most negative consequences. Especially when you consider the fact that the level of vital energy of modern people is significantly lower than that of representatives of previous generations.

Why do you need to fast?

After studying various healing methods, the question often remains: why is fasting necessary? M. Ohanyan, offering his own program, always explains exactly how this process affects the general condition of the body, what is its main goal.

The main task of the body during the fasting period is to cleanse itself of waste and toxins as best as possible. But in order to start the self-cleaning mechanism, it is necessary to temporarily suspend the work of digestive enzymes.

During conditional fasting, solid food stops entering the body. He does not need to spend a colossal amount of energy on such a labor-intensive process as digestion. As a rule, after several days of such hunger (in different cases - from 5 to 21 days), proteolytic enzymes (proteases) located in the cells are activated. They have absolutely extraordinary properties. Proteases are able to find destructive elements in the human body and completely eliminate them. This applies to absolutely all cells and intercellular space.

Destructive elements include waste and toxins. They can be manifested in the body as, for example, purulent formations, mucus, as well as toxic deposits diluted with body fluids (they form cellulite). All this can and should be removed from your body forever. Only through inner purity does a person achieve full health.

Thus, the body itself knows how to cleanse its organs and tissues. Including joints, bones, blood vessels, nerve canals and lymph. In order for this self-purification process to become possible, it is necessary to fast for some time. That is why at all times fasting has been the most effective healing method.

Marva Ohanyan also clarifies the important point that conditional fasting can be started only after cleansing the intestines. These processes must go hand in hand to achieve the most correct approach to recovery.

Fasting according to Marva Ohanyan - where to start?

The first thing you need to do before you start conditioned fasting is to purchase (or make sure you have them) the following components:

Collection of herbs: peppermint, lemon balm, great plantain, wild rosemary, yarrow, sage, knotweed, bearberry, oregano, coltsfoot, chicory, bay leaf, thyme, chamomile, valerian root, nettle, motherwort, calendula, agrimony, field horsetail

Herbs can be purchased at a pharmacy, or you can collect them yourself during the warm season. They must be dried. Dried herbs should yield 1 cup of each type. Then they should be crushed and mixed. There are several different fees you can make.

Fresh fruits and vegetables.

You will need them for making juices. It is better not to buy them in advance, since the bulk of freshly squeezed juices are consumed at the final stage of conditional fasting, with the exception of grapefruit and lemon.

Honey.

The product must be of good quality. It is better to purchase it directly from beekeepers. Unfortunately, almost all products presented in regular stores (sometimes in markets) undergo certain procedures, after which honey loses almost all of its value.

Decoction or infusion of herbs - recipe by Marva Ohanyan

During the period of conditional fasting, you need to drink a lot of liquid. Its main part is infusions or decoctions of herbs. The choice is made at the discretion of the individual. A naturopathic doctor allows any of these options in his program.

To prepare a decoction: take two tablespoons from several or one collection of herbs. Fill them with one liter of boiling water. Leave for 30 minutes. It is best to use an enamel pan, which can then be wrapped in a towel.

To prepare an infusion of herbs, you need to fill them with warm water (temperature approximately 35-38 degrees Celsius). Leave for 6-12 hours, or overnight.

A decoction or infusion is prepared for the whole day. This requires 3 liters. You can do the entire daily amount at once. But you shouldn’t stock up for several days - the herbal drink must be fresh.

Add 1-2 teaspoons of honey and freshly squeezed juice from a quarter of a lemon to one glass of decoction/infusion.

Fasting according to Marva Ohanyan - a detailed description of the method by day

The duration of conditional fasting ranges from 7 to 21 days. But it should be noted that 21 days is the average duration that people who are cleansing their body for the first time should adhere to. That is, it is assumed that a lot of waste and toxins have accumulated in the human body. If a person has previously resorted to various methods of cleansing and fasting, then he can shorten the period at his discretion.

Also, children do not need prolonged fasting. As a rule, their bodies are not so heavily polluted, and the child has more vital energy. Therefore, all cleansing processes occur many times faster. Sometimes it only takes 5 days.

If the body is heavily polluted, the fasting period can be increased.

The whole process is divided into three main stages:

The beginning or entry into fasting lasts from one to three days.

At this stage, on the first day you can eat your last meal at 12 noon. In this case, the food should be light and easily digestible.

At 19:00 on the same day you need to take a laxative (you can use magnesium sulfate in powder). If the human body is heavily polluted, then you can take this drug three evenings in a row. But in any case, you can no longer eat. You can only drink herbal drinks with honey and lemon.

The main stage of fasting lasts 7 days.

The next morning after the last (or only) laxative intake, you need to do an enema. During the day it is necessary to carry out three such procedures (all seven days).

*Note: How to properly take magnesium sulfate and give an enema is described in detail here.

At the second stage of fasting, a person drinks three liters of herbal infusion/decoction per day. You can also drink 2-3 glasses of grapefruit juice per day (instead of 2-3 glasses of herbal drink).

Recovery from fasting lasts from 3 to 14 days.

You can reduce the number of enemas per day to one, and then do it only every other day. The frequency of enema use also depends on the degree of slagging in the body.

An infusion/decoction of herbs with honey and lemon can increasingly be alternated with freshly squeezed vegetable and fruit juices. Juices must be filtered so that no pulp gets in. This is necessary so that digestion does not begin.

You can make good combinations of fruits and vegetables for juices, for example:

1) lemon + orange + grapefruit;

2) carrots + apple + spinach;

3) beets + cucumber + parsley.

After complete fasting, you can add vegetable and fruit purees to your diet a little at a time. After 2-3 days of this diet, you can include vegetable salads and fruits. Salads can be seasoned with raw vegetable oil and lemon juice.

This type of diet can be maintained for quite a long time, as long as a person can stick to it. During this period, the body cleanses itself very well and gets rid of many serious diseases. Even chronic diseases are cured.

Conditioned fasting - contraindications

Not recommended during pregnancy and lactation. Women should take care of cleansing the body in advance - before they decide to become mothers. Conditional fasting in the first stages can cause acute states of intoxication, which will negatively affect the health of the mother and baby.
For children, the conditioned fasting method is selected in a simplified and accelerated version.
It is necessary to be prepared for exacerbations of various diseases. Since these processes are a consequence of cleansing the body. If a person, for example, has stones in any organs, they can begin to actively move, which will lead to acute pain and serious condition.
During the fasting period, you must stop taking any medications.

Who is Marva Ohanyan

Ohanyan Marva is a certified physician, doctor of medical sciences, biochemist . She has 45 years of experience in both medical institutions and various laboratories. Marwa is the author of several books that promote natural medicine aimed at enhancing and improving the body's ability to heal itself and fight disease.

Marva Ohanyan

Ohanyan developed a method of cleansing and losing weight in a fairly short period. It is effective, original and even unique. As an experienced biochemist, Marva claims that her method not only cleanses the body of waste and toxins, but also literally reprograms it - the immune system begins to actively and successfully fight viruses, bacteria and even infectious agents.

We recommend reading the article about the Grossman diet. From it you will learn about the basic principles, pros and cons, menu for the week, recommended recipes for weight loss. And here is more information about the ladder diet.

Not common, but for some very effective, the Simeons diet is controversial among doctors. Developed with Anat Stern, it promises rapid weight loss. At the same time, the doctor’s weekly menu is significantly limited in products.

It is quite difficult to carry out therapeutic fasting for weight loss out of habit. At home, everything distracts us - cooking for the family, the availability of tasty things. How to spend days during therapeutic fasting?

Birch tar is used for weight loss, healing the body, and cleansing toxins. It has both benefits and harms from its use. How to drink internally?

Fasting according to Marva Ohanyan, developed by a biochemist with many years of experience and based on a radical cleansing of the intestines using a decoction of herbs, will help rid the body of accumulated waste and toxins. This is not just a diet, the goal of which is to get rid of extra pounds, but a whole system that promotes a complete restructuring of the body and increased immunity. The proposed technique should be practiced in strict accordance with the instructions and after prior consultation with a doctor .

The essence of the weight loss method

Ohanyan recommends fasting, but this must be done competently in order to obtain a complete cleansing of the body at the cellular level. Fasting is not a banal refusal of food, but a system of drinking herbal teas and performing cleansing enemas.

According to Marwa, refusing to eat is a “simple” digestive system, which gives additional energy to the body to remove existing toxins and waste. Herbal infusions are almost immediately absorbed by the gastric mucosa; the digestion process with the release of bile and gastric juice simply does not have time to start.

Thanks to the intake of certain medicinal herbs, various enzymes are actively released, which “accompany” toxins/wastes into the lymphatic system - it is this system that removes everything unnecessary from the body.

The essence of the technique

Three key details that Marva Ogarshakovna relies on are weakening the food processing process (fasting), cleansing the intestines and taking herbal infusions (to speed up cleansing of the body).

According to the biochemist, the normal course of reactions of organ systems is interfered with by dirt, salts, stones and sand. Only effective cleaning will help you get rid of these components, the essence of which is as follows:

Bringing solar biorhythms back to normal - night sleep should start at 21.00 and end at 5.00.
Regular evening (at 19.00) intake of a harmless laxative - magnesium sulfate (Epsom salt), 30-40 g and morning salt enemas.
Drinking healthy liquids: honey and herbal infusions and diluted freshly squeezed juices of viburnum, lemon, pomegranate, cherry (45 ml per 1 glass of boiled, cooled water).
Drinking fruit and vegetable juices.

A unique method (according to its author and people who took the course) really helps strengthen the body. The main thing is not to self-medicate and before starting fasting, be examined by a therapist, gastroenterologist and endocrinologist.

Contraindications for carrying out

Representatives of official medicine, in particular nutritionists, warn that this method of cleansing/weight loss is aggressive and can negatively affect a person’s overall well-being. Marva Ohanyan’s technique should not be used by those people who have already been diagnosed with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract - for example, with gastritis or peptic ulcer of the stomach/duodenum.

Those who have a history of:

severe kidney and liver diseases;
previously had surgery to remove the gallbladder;
problems in the functioning of the cardiovascular system;
neurological pathologies.

In any case, you will need to first consult with doctors, because fasting on herbal decoctions can aggravate any chronic diseases, even if they have been in a state of drug remission for a long time.

Gastritis is one of the contraindications to the Ohanyan diet

Rules for a herbal diet from Ohanyan

In order for a herbal diet to be beneficial and adequately accepted by the body, you need to follow some rules and recommendations from Ohanyan:

It is impossible to start fasting suddenly, because this will lead to an exacerbation of health problems , provoke a gastronomic breakdown and will not give any results in losing weight. It is necessary to prepare the body for the upcoming stress, and to do this, reduce the amount of food consumed, its calorie content, and remove fatty, spicy, pickled foods from the menu.
Fasting, even if it is therapeutic and carried out competently, is strictly contraindicated for certain diseases . Therefore, before starting a herbal diet, you should consult with your doctor about its advisability if you have a history of chronic pathologies. It is advisable to undergo examination for the hidden course of diseases, and this, at a minimum, includes laboratory tests of blood, urine, ECG, and fluorography.
Exiting the diet should be gradual and in strict accordance with the instructions from its developer. If after a certain amount of time you introduce all the usual dishes into the menu, you can only achieve intestinal obstruction.

Diet rules

Biological nutrition for the human body

Nutrition for the body is the main way to maintain its vitality. With food, it receives energy and the ability to develop both physically and mentally.

According to naturopath Marva Ohanyan, the food we currently consume is more harmful than beneficial.

It's rare to find non-GMO food products. How then should you eat and what should you eat to be healthy?

In her lectures and books, Marva Vagarshakovna Ohanyan has repeatedly said that biological nutrition for our body is not only possible, but also necessary.

A raw food diet is the basic principle of a healthy body. All products consumed should not be heat treated above 42 degrees. Also excluded are foods that contain gluten and casein.

Switching to biological nutrition will help solve many health problems and open up new potential for the body:

With food, the so-called building material enters the body. The cells of a living organism are renewed all the time, that is, new ones come to replace the destroyed ones.
Biologically active substances found in food regulate all the main processes of the body.
Food carries chemical information for the body. The more varied the diet, the more the body will be adapted to any environment.

It is important to know! Having decided to become a vegetarian and raw foodist, you need to study as much information as possible on this issue, and it is better to contact a specialist, otherwise you can cause irreparable harm to your health.

Cleansing according to the Marva method

The herbal diet, fasting according to the Ohanyan method, is preceded by cleansing. And it is carried out as follows:

At 19-00, use a saline solution with a laxative effect, for which 50 g of Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) should be added to 200 ml of warm water. The solution is immediately washed down with a decoction of herbs, to which you can add lemon juice or honey (no more than 1 teaspoon per 250 ml).
You need to lie on your right side, put a warm heating pad to the right hypochondrium (anatomical location of the liver), do not put a pillow under your head. You need to lie in this position for 1 hour, during which you should drink at least 200 ml of herbal decoction, this should be done in small sips and without raising your head.
Before 21-00 you should drink at least 5 more glasses of broth, you should go to bed no later than the indicated time. This is important because it ensures the normalization of the body’s biological rhythm.
In the morning, from 5-00 to 7-00, you need to rinse the large intestine. For an enema, use 3 liters of warm water with the addition of soda and salt (regular food grade) in the same quantity - 1 tablespoon per designated volume. Immediately do 2-3 enemas in a row. Such morning washings are performed daily for a week or 10 days, which depends on the person’s well-being.

Cleansing enema
After the first cleansing enema is performed, nothing should be eaten. It is only allowed to drink various herbal decoctions with the addition of viburnum juice, lemon, cherry and other berries, depending on the season of the year.

Herbal tea is prepared from the following ingredients:

lemon balm and knotweed;
thyme and mint;
chamomile and sage;
oregano and calendula;
plantain and linden;
yarrow and valerian (root);
nettle and horsetail (field).

Herbal tea
All components are taken in equal quantities and mixed in a non-metallic container. Next, 2 level tablespoons of mixed plant material are poured with 1 liter of hot water (not boiling water, otherwise all the beneficial properties of the herbs will “evaporate”) and infused for half an hour in a thermos or other insulated container.

Drink 1 glass of ready-made herbal tea every hour; you should drink a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 12 glasses per day. You can add juice from sour berries or citrus fruits to the decoction; viburnum, lemon, and black currant are suitable.

The juice must be freshly prepared and not contain the peel or pulp of the product. It can be replaced with apple cider vinegar, but it must be natural and of high quality.

Ohanyan recommends combining the use of herbal tea with juices from pumpkin, carrots, beets, and unsweetened apples - the ingredients can be consumed as independent drinks or in combination with each other. If your health allows, then instead of vegetable juices it is better to drink orange, tangerine and grapefruit. Drinking regimen:

Time	What drink
7-00	glass of herbal tea
8-00	a glass of juice
9-00	herbal decoction
10-00	a glass of juice and so on

The duration of the process is at least 5 days , if you have enough willpower and health, then it can be carried out for 21 days.

Cleansing enemas - benefits for the body

The technique involves daily cleansing of the intestines through the use of salt or herbal enemas. This cleansing is due to the need to get rid of decay products of food debris and slag formations that are located in the large intestine. The benefit of an enema is to speed up the body's metabolic processes and release energy that was spent fighting slagging and toxic deposits.

Herbal solution

While using the technique, you can alternate salt and herbal enemas. A solution using herbs is prepared on the basis of plants that help cleanse the body (chamomile, plantain, yarrow or celandine). To prepare 1 enema, you need to pour 1 tbsp. l. any herb 2 liters of boiling water, then strain the resulting solution, cool to an acceptable temperature and add 200 g of raw oil. Enema should be performed daily (3 enemas at once) throughout the entire period.

Saline solution

To prepare cleansing enemas, you need to heat 6 liters of water to a temperature of 38 degrees. Divide the prepared volume into three 2 liter portions, add 2 tsp to each of them. coarse salt (you can use sea salt) and 1 tsp. baking soda. The daily enema procedure consists of 3 two-liter enemas, which are given in turn as the bowels are emptied. This cleaning method should be used for the entire cleansing course.

How you feel when fasting

On the very first day, the general state of health may deteriorate, and the person will begin to worry about:

nausea and vomiting;
dizziness and headaches;
aches throughout the body and increased drowsiness.

This is a normal reaction of the body, which will become more pronounced every day. For example, purulent discharge from the nose, a cough with a large amount of sputum, and increased sweating with an unpleasant odor may appear.

In this case, you will need to continue to follow a herbal diet until these manifestations stop - the body is actively cleansing itself and removing mucus, bacteria, toxins and waste through all possible openings in the body .

Rules for exiting the Ohanyan diet

For the first 4 days after the cleansing, you can eat only soft fruits ; if you take hard ones, they should be pureed. In addition to them, drink 3 glasses of decoction and juice per day.

Until the 10th day, the menu is enriched with salads from fresh chopped vegetables (it is better to grate them on a coarse grater) - dill, tomatoes, onions, spinach, garlic, chopped or whipped into a single mass. The salad is dressed only with a small amount of lemon juice; no spices, including salt, are added. They also continue to drink the usual liquids, but their amount can be reduced to 2 glasses per day.

For the next 14 days, the diet is replenished with vegetables baked in the oven at low temperatures - pumpkin, tomatoes, zucchini, beets, which are prepared without spices, vegetable oil and other additions. The broth can be drunk, but not more than 250 ml per day, juices are consumed only in case of severe thirst, but fruits and salads from fresh vegetables must be present on the menu.

Only after 6 weeks (it’s better to endure after finishing the herbal diet, you can start introducing porridge cooked in water, vegetable and butter, sour cream, vegetable soups into the menu. The developer of the cleansing and weight loss method, Ohanyan, does not recommend eating milk and its derivatives, meat and fish, baked goods made from yeast dough, sugar and salt.

Such fasting should be carried out once every 3 months for 2 years in order to completely cleanse the body and raise its ability to fight disease to the maximum level.

Pancreas problems

Marva Ohanyan, a general practitioner, biochemist, and professional with 45 years of experience, knows where most modern ailments come from. “As you know,” says Marva Vagarshakovna, “the pancreas is responsible for the breakdown of food eaten by a person in the intestines and the production of the hormone insulin.

From birth, we ruthlessly exploit this gland, forcing it to work around the clock and synthesize enzymes. In the process, the organ is overloaded, consuming a large amount of energy. Untimely eating depletes energy reserves and the pancreas, causing diabetes, pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, self-digestion and necrosis of the gland. Therefore, it is necessary to understand once and for all what proper nutrition should be.”

Principles of proper nutrition

The properties of food must correspond to our physiology. Raw fruits, vegetables, sprouted grains, nuts, and food herbs are broken down with a minimum amount of enzymes. Digestion occurs naturally, without discomfort, bloating, heaviness, diarrhea or constipation. But it takes 100 times more enzymes to break down stewed or fried foods than raw foods.

By eating thermally processed food, we force the pancreas to work a hundred times more actively, causing it to wear out more and more every year. Boiled, fried, stewed food has no energy value, so to be full we need to eat large portions. This way we expose the digestive tract and pancreas to an unusual load. It’s not for nothing that they say: “We dig our own grave with a knife and fork.”

Digestive enzymes stop being produced after 18 hours. This is why all nutritionists prohibit having dinner after six : food eaten in the evening rots in the duodenum until 9 am, and during the day the mass goes further into the small intestine and colon, poisoning everything in its path.

The liver has to take on the released poisons and filter the blood. As a result, hepatocholecystitis, calculous cholecystitis, infectious jaundice, viral hepatitis and, as a result, cirrhosis of the liver occur. Treatment of the liver and pancreas can be lengthy and require lifestyle changes.

Meat products are not considered quality food. Why? Our digestive system is unable to process animal protein properly, causing it to rot. Only the short digestive tract of carnivores is designed to digest meat. In humans, the digestive system is much longer, protein is in them for almost 8 hours, and human food enzymes are not enough to break down meat products.

Foreign animal protein is a strong allergen. During its decay, toxic gases (ammonia, methane, hydrogen sulfide) and toxins (putrescine, cadaverine, ptomaines) are released. The liver is able to neutralize them only partially, as a result they accumulate and enter the blood, which leads to the occurrence of various diseases.

It is strictly forbidden to feed babies sweet semolina and rice milk porridge! These cereals do not contain any vitamins, and when mixed with milk protein and sugar, the result is a substance that ferments and rots in the stomach. Hence, childhood skin diathesis and bronchial asthma. Caring parents mistakenly include meat in the diet - “ essential amino acids and protein necessary for a growing body.”

A healthy liver and intestinal microflora, spleen and bone marrow themselves can perfectly synthesize amino acids. Having its own “native” amino acids, not taken from a dead animal, the child’s body independently produces protein molecules that do not cause rejection and the formation of antibodies.

DIET MODE FOR EVERY DAY

Morning You should start with herbal tea with honey, lemon or berry juice. It is much healthier than coffee and black tea. You can add rose hips, green tea, hibiscus (Sudanese rose petals) to the drink. After this, a glass of freshly squeezed juice from seasonal vegetables or fruits would be ideal.
Breakfast from 10 to 11 o'clock should be fruit. In the warm season - fresh fruits, in winter and spring - dried fruits. After one and a half to two hours, drink a large mug of herbal tea or juice.
Lunch should consist of fresh vegetables and herbs. Grated vegetables are seasoned with chopped herbs, homemade sour cream or vegetable oil, and a chicken egg. It will be very useful to add sprouted grains of wheat, buckwheat, peas, flax seeds, and sunflowers to the dish. After lunch, wait 1.5 hours and you can drink any of the above drinks.
Dinner from 17 to 18 hours should be fruit or vegetable. You can add bran, nuts, and hard cheeses to the salad. Fermented milk products would be appropriate: yogurt, kefir, fermented baked milk. Instead of bread - sandwiches made from rye crackers with butter and garlic sauce. In autumn, you need to focus on all the fruits of red and orange color - rich source of vitamins, trace elements and antioxidants.

Traditional nutrition does not meet the real needs of our body. You need to understand and realize: in order to provide yourself with adequate healthy nutrition and protect yourself from diseases, habits and tastes will have to change. It is necessary to limit the consumption of meat and thermally processed foods so as not to exceed the capacity of the pancreas, on which our life depends.

Previously, we wrote about foods that have a beneficial effect on the pancreas. Remember them and try to use them more often.

Traditional medicine knows how to cure the pancreas with simple and affordable products, without resorting to pharmaceuticals. These rules have proven effective in the fight against pancreatitis. We hope that this knowledge about your body will be useful to you and you will change your views on the way you eat.

Therapist, Doctor of Medical Sciences, Marva Ohanyan recommends carrying out cleansing fasting, during which the body “restarts.” If you fully follow the recommendations, you can not only get rid of extra pounds, but also defeat viruses and bacteria.
