有學員問我:「如何避免中風?」,這個問題一進入我的耳裡,我的思緒立刻走向血管的世界。不是聚焦在硬化斑塊,而是看見血液是否混濁、血流是否順暢。

談到中風,我自然聯想到斷食的動機與材料。當身體啟動清理,血管壁上的沉積物被剝落,就像颱風過後漂浮在河道的木頭。對於血管早已嚴重淤塞、身體能量又低迷的人而言,這一刻,風險彷彿浮現。

這是斷食的風險嗎?當然不是。這正是為什麼在執行斷食前,必須完整理解斷食的全貌。

於是,那些自覺血管不通、身體充滿積累的人開始擔心:「我是不是不能斷食?」

事實上,人人都應該斷食,但不是人人都能直接斷食。若身體的囤積已把管道塞得毫無縫隙,那麼衝動斷食確實不宜。

然而,偏偏這群人又最需要透過身體來清理淤塞。莫非這和肝硬化一般,有所謂可逆和不可逆的分別?

 

每個人都有一刻會醒悟,知道必須為健康而改變。在我看來,願意走進斷食教育,是冥冥中有天意,因此我鼓勵學員「即知即行」。

此時,動機與材料的重要性浮現:關鍵是喚醒身體,讓它啟動清除廢物的工程。

回想我自己初學時,幸運生長在台灣,擁有最適合斷食的天然材料:全農作物與發酵工法。

有計畫的斷食讓我的感官不斷敏銳,身體線條、膚質、能量,都逐步年輕化。

那是我踏入能量世界的門口,我終於明白:讓身體接管清運的同時,必須提供能量。

這不是可省略的動作,而是一種態度。

如果斷食有風險,那風險只存在於沒有學習、沒有動機,不清楚在身體「不處理食物而處理廢物」的同時,必須同步輸送生命力給身體。

 

因此,我要求初學者一定要給足身體能量。不只是避免飢餓,而是避免身體把廢物挪到別處囤放。

這與有些人做肝膽淨化卻沒有接斷食很像:毒垢從肝膽移出,卻困在腸道其他地方,只是換房間,不算清空。

斷食讓我理解身體的時間軸:血管壁剝下的垃圾、肝膽排出的毒,都需要能量搭配時間,才能真正離開身體。

清化身體,是現在的事,不是以後的事。拖越久,風險越高;觀念不清、動機不純,匆忙執行,路就會走得失控。

做中學,行中悟。身體的機制,不研究、只想跳過,就會把風險留在自己身上。

 

中風的前身,是廢物的長年囤積;中風的後續,是能量的全面枯竭。

避免之道從「週休二日」的習慣養成開始,這是上天送給我們的節奏,也是一種領悟。

理解身體的時間軸後,我們給身體拉出一段高能量的延續時段。若還不理解,那就把自己歸零:重新學,重新啟動動機,重新規劃執行。

 

很多人一聽到斷食就抗拒,我提醒他們:斷食不是養生法,是身體的需要。真正同理身體的人,自然會把它變成習慣。

痛風與中風同源:不是胖瘦,而是「惰性的累積」。

現代人的最大風險是:一年 365 天不停讓身體處理食物。連一天都不讓它休息,好處理廢物。

因為知識蒙蔽了常識,很多人以為懂醫療就懂健康,但我在書中說過:治療與健康是兩條不相交的路。治療是迷路後的求助,健康是自己走對方向。

當你一輩子不讓身體停損飲食,不理解垃圾如何堆積,那,就是中風最真實的風險因子。

 

(中風不分類,任何人都可能發生。)

 

The Risk of Stroke

A student once asked me, “How do we prevent a stroke?”
The moment I heard the question, my mind entered the inner world of blood vessels—not focusing on plaques, but on whether the blood is murky and whether circulation flows freely.

When we speak of stroke, I naturally think of fasting—its intention and its preparation.
When the body begins to clear accumulated debris, the deposits on vessel walls peel away, just like driftwood floating down a river after a typhoon.
For those whose vessels are heavily clogged and whose energy is depleted, that moment may seem like a risk emerging.

Is this a risk of fasting?
Of course not.
This is precisely why one must understand the full picture of fasting before practicing it.

So those who know they are heavily congested start to worry:
“Does this mean I shouldn’t fast?”

In truth, everyone should fast—but not everyone can fast immediately.
If waste has been accumulated to the point of blocking every passage, impulsive fasting can indeed be dangerous.
Yet ironically, these are the very people who need the body’s cleansing mechanism the most.
Just like cirrhosis, there may be a reversible stage and an irreversible stage.

Awakening the Body — The First Step

Every person experiences a moment of awakening—when we realize something must change for the sake of health.
To me, stepping into a fasting education is guided by a higher intention, and therefore I always tell my students: “Once you know, act.”

Here, intention and preparation emerge as pivotal.
The key is to awaken the body and allow it to initiate the work of clearing waste.

In my own early practice, I was fortunate to be in Taiwan—a land rich in whole crops and fermentation traditions, the ideal materials for fasting support.
Planned fasting sharpened my senses, refined my physique and skin, and lifted my energy; I grew younger, not older.

That was the threshold into the world of energy.
And I realized: when the body takes over the cleansing, we must supply energy in return.
It is not optional—it is an attitude, a principle.

If fasting carries any risk, it lies only with those who have not learned, who lack intention, who do not understand that when the body stops processing food to process waste, life force must accompany that transition.

Energy First — Then Cleanse

That is why I insist beginners must fuel the body sufficiently.
Not merely to avoid hunger, but to prevent the body from moving waste only to store it elsewhere.

This is just like doing a liver–gallbladder purge without following with fasting:
toxins leave the liver, only to stagnate in the intestines—
same trash, different room, never truly cleared.

Fasting taught me the body’s timeline.
Detached plaque, expelled bile sediment—both require time and energy to leave the body completely.

Cleansing the body is a now task, not a “someday” task.
Delay increases risk.
Without clarity of concept or intention, rushing into action only leads to chaos.

We learn by doing, and we awaken through practice.
Anyone who tries to shortcut the body’s process only leaves risk accumulating inside themselves.

Stroke — The Result of Slow Neglect

Stroke has a past and a future:

Its past is long-term accumulation of waste.

Its future is a complete collapse of energy.
Prevention begins with a simple rhythm:
give your body two days off every week.
This weekly plan is not coincidence—it is a gift from above, and a wisdom to embrace.

Once we understand the body’s time axis, we create periods of high energy support.
If one still does not understand, then return to zero—
study again, restart intention, rebuild a plan.

Fasting Is Not a Technique — It Is a Biological Need

Many people instinctively reject fasting.
I remind them: Fasting is not a wellness method. It is a biological necessity.
Those who truly empathize with their bodies will naturally develop it as a habit.

Gout and stroke come from the same root—
not weight, but accumulated inertia.

The greatest risk for modern people?
Eating 365 days a year, giving the body no time to process waste.
Never a pause, never a clearing—only storage upon storage.

Knowledge has clouded basic wisdom.
Many believe medical knowledge equals understanding health.
Yet I once wrote a chapter titled “Do Doctors Understand Health?”
Treatment and health walk separate roads.
Treatment is asking for directions after getting lost;
health is walking the right path from the beginning.

If you never allow the body to stop absorbing,
if you never understand how waste accumulates,
then stroke is not a mystery—it is inevitable.
