ItalianoGACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:
In the morning, Baru and I
both began training.
Only TAKUMI wasn’t present for this time’s training but
it was decided that Baru will take part this time.
It’s the 2nd day of fasting that we started together.
With my partner Ikeda, Baru,
and TAKUMI, who’s in Japan, we all started fasting at the same time.
G Enzyme is excellent.
If other types of enzymes were consumed,
it seems that there will be people who feel like their stomachs are empty but
if G Enzyme, which has an enzyme content of over 90%, is taken instead,
no one feels hungry at all
and everyone is able to continue on in surprisingly good conditions.
Taking enzymes when fasting
is also good for other things aside from effectively losing weight,
or in other words dieting.
In my case this time around,
the condition of my body became pretty bad in Japan,
so in other words, to “reset” my body,
I started fasting again.
When people around me
see that I’m fasting,
there are some who acknowledge it without saying anything but there are those who say
『Is that okay?』
or
『Doing something like that is bad for your body!』
or, even more irresponsibly,
『Not eating is poisonous to your body!』
when their bodies are fat.
If you ask me
I think everyone throw anything and everything
into their mouths too much.
【Once it’s time, I’ll eat】
This is being no different from a reared animal.
The era when 【3 meals a day】 became an international thing
was around 200 years back,
and because it was necessary to increase the amout of food produced,
selective breeding and genetic engineering were done at the expense of
a drop in the quality of produce
and this was from around 70 years ago.
Recently,
through the hands of people
who are of course in doubt of such things,
there are many areas that are being revised but
the fact is, organic foods
and foods that are good for the body
are so expensive that it doesn’t make sense
for normal families to serve them at home.
That’s why, it has become necessary
to consume substitute foods or supplements
to make sure that we’re getting the proper nutrients.
Moreover,
the worst part is that inferior goods are even distributed in supplements
The priorities are all wrong.
It’s an era where you don’t know which is the better choice.
In terms of food ingredients,
all of us are, without a doubt,
living in a sad time.
Because we can’t normally
or easily get our hands on
what’s really good for our bodies.
At this point,
it’s as good as a question of
『Just what are the cheap things made of?』.
This problem is born from the vicious cycle of modern society.
I suppose Japan can be said to be in a rather special environment.
In fact, when you look at it from the price point in Japan,
the prices in a restaurants should originally be much higher,
and even when comparing it with foreign countries, the price setting is rather low,
and that’s something that you will naturally know if you’ve been overseas
and just by looking it up, anyone would know.
With this,
the restaurant makes a profit by
purchasing extreme amounts
to lower their margins though lowering their cost.
The only ones that can purchase in huge amounts are
large-scale chain stores and stores that have opened multiple outlets,
and the normal stores have no choice but to lower their costs too.
Labour cost is extremely high.
Rent is pretty expensive too.
Despite that,
they can’t raise their prices.
This negative cycle creates an environment
where they have no choice but to make cheap products.
We’ve deviated pretty far from talk about fasting but
the human body is actually well made.
The people who have survived a history that has starvation
from thousands of years ago until now
all have considerable potential hidden in their bodies.
There’s something that people used to say in the past.
【Eat in moderation (lit. 80% of your stomach)】
This was a phrase that was created
in a time when meals could not be taken properly.
In other words, even for those who don’t eat 3 meals a day,
it’s not good to eat in large amounts.
When food can’t enter the body
the inside of your body will feel endangered
and it will cause lots of motions that regenerate parts of your body
and lots of secretions of hormones that don’t normally happen.
Of course,
what we’re doing
is different from what’s called perfect fasting.
It’s a little difficult to explain it so
I’ll try to put it simply…
By consuming enzymes,
we will get the minimum required nutrition for our bodies.
And
the energy that we need to move our bodies
cannot be absorbed all in one go so it will disintegrate the body fats
and provide energy from inside the body.
Without getting into a state of malnutrition,
we will only get rid of the fats in our bodies.
And,
because it will reset the body,
at times when your skin gets rough or goes out of order,
it’s ability to improve your constitution is quite strong.
Well,
this will make it my 3rd time doing this but
I remember that I was struggling because I didn’t fully understand it
This time, you can even say that it’s going perfectly well.
My rough skin became much better
and especially with regards to sleep,
I’ve become able to sleep quite deeply for longer periods than usual.
Well,
since the results of this will only show after a week,
I want you to look forward to it.
Those who are worried about illnesses and such,
take my results and give it a try.
Now, I have to focus on the competition…
