I experienced passing black, tarry stools while fasting today. Is it normal?

Yes, it is perfectly normal to experience detox symptoms like black, tarry stool during your juice fast. The blacker the stool, the older it is.

Our intestines are the dumping ground of the body. When the body starts the cleansing process by fasting, all the waste stuck in the interiors of the body starts making its way out. The waste from the organs dumps itself to the nearest channel of elimination, which is the large intestine. 

So while fasting, the intestine becomes heavily burdened with toxins. That’s why it is very important to cleanse the intestines through enemas. 

We have seen cases where even after a 5-day juice fast, upon taking an enema, a lot of stool coming out of a person's intestine. They haven’t eaten since the past 5 days. So where is all this smelly, dark-coloured stool coming out from? This is the old faecal matter that has been stuck rotting inside the intestines since many years.
