A healthy body 
constantly fights mutating cells - the body 
doesn’t allow newly formed atypical cells to fuse 
and form a dense tumor. This fight is conducted 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frby antitumor immune control, specifically, three 
types of cells: macrophages, natural killers (NK -
cells) and cytotoxic T -lymphocytes (CTLs) . Macrophages eat and digest malignant cells; af-
ter detecting them, CTLs produce polymer -pro-
teins, perforins, which perforate the outer mem-
brane of a malignant cell, thus equalizing the os-
motic pressure inside and outside the cell and 
killing it, if it’s still alive, additional proteins are 
produced, and these are granzymes that destroy 
its nucleus. A natural killer is special; it’s one of 
the most powerful antitumor cells. It recognizes 
any atypical cells that aren’t recognized by mac-
rophages and CTLs. In patients with benign tumors (fibroids, mas-
topathy, and prostate adenoma), all three types 
of cells are in their suppressed state: most of 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frthem are young and immature elements incapa-
ble of vigorous actions. Moreover, their matura-
tion rate is extremely low. The lifespan of these 
cells is short. Most importantly, their antitumor 
activity is low. Perhaps, a combination of these 
factors leads to the destruction of the body’s an-
titumor shield. What is the mechanism of the 
antitumor fasting action? Fasting brings  on 
powerful body detoxification, and it contributes 
to the accelerated maturation of natural killers. As a result, there are a large number of their ma-
ture and combat -ready forms. The lifespan of 
macrophages, CTLs, and NK cells is also multi-
plied several-fold. The most important is the activation of macro-
phages, CTLs and NK cells, after which they not 
only become capable of destroying atypical

activity towards any altered cells. There is an in-
crease in th e necrosis of tumors and interleu-
kins. Since phagocytes are left without nutrition, 
they start carrying out their direct duties: they 
capture and digest bacteria, viruses, cell debris, 
and old and dying cells (thus contributing to 
bodily renewal and even r ejuvenation). All the 
altered and even cancerous cells that are nor-
mally present in the body are digested. We all know that pathologically changed body 
cells, including cancer cells, start dying at high 
temperatures. During dry fasting, the body tem-
peratu re rises. That’s why all metabolic pro-
cesses in the body are accelerated. Therefore, 
even cancer cells are destroyed faster, as they 
completely suspend their vital functions. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr 
 Recently, I’ve learned another anti -tumor 
mechanisms. A professional gynecologis t 
came to us for treatment along with her 
friend. Her friend was diagnosed with very 
large uterine fibroids. After dry fractional 
fasting, her friend got an ultrasound scan 
when they returned home. The tumor has 
significantly decreased. As the doctor told 
me, the most important thing during the ex-
amination was that the blood supply to the 
tumor was interrupted, which also lead to 
its reduction. A tumor can’t exceed the size 
of a pinhead unless it obtains an independ-
ent blood supply source. Angiogenesis pro-
vides it with the oxygen and nutrients nec-
essary for its growth and spreading. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frDuring dry fasting, the blood thickens, espe-
cially in pathologically changed tissues, the 
growth of blood vessels in the tumor is sup-
pressed, and the blood supply and its nutriti on 
deteriorate. Consequently, tumor growth is in-
hibited. When the blood supply is disturbed, es-
pecially in large nodes, they degenerate; the af-
fected area has a soft gelatinous texture. Their 
further degeneration can lead to the complete 
disappearance of p athologically changed nodes. According to a number of researchers, the ma-
lignant cells fed by surrounding tissues often die 
under conditions of limiting nutrients in the 
body on purpose (fasting). It’s well known that 
malignant cells require significant am ounts of 
nutrients due to their rapid growth, and they ex-
ceed the needs of normal cells several times. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frObesity and unhealthy diets seem to increase the 
risk of cancer. It has been established that it’s impossible to in-
duce the development of malignant tumors with 
the help of carcinogens in hibernating animals 
during the hibernation period, though this goal 
is easily accomplished in their waking state. Be-
sides, tumor degradation is noted in hibernating 
animals during their hibernation period if the 
tumor was present in their waking state. In 1938, American pathologists Fay and 
Smith29 offered a method of treating malignant 
tumors in humans with the help of artificial 
 
29 Smith L.W., Fay T., Temperature factors in cancer and embryo-
nal cell growths , JAMA, 1939. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frhibernation caused by cold for the first time in 
world practice. Clinical trials were conduc ted on 38 patients 
suffering from common malignant tumors with 
metastases, including brain metastases, and 
many patients were able to relieve the pain only 
with large doses of morphine. After being given sleeping pills, the naked pa-
tients were covered from all sides with rubber 
pads filled with ice, and their body temperature 
has been maintained in the range of 32.2 -29.4°C 
for 5 days. The temperature dropped to 27.7°C 
in one case, but without any consequences. Dur-
ing the hibernation period, patients didn’t  uri-
nate or defecate, their respiratory and cardiac ac-
tivities practically stopped, and they were un-
conscious. Subsequently, the patients were 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frawakened, warmed up, and given strong hot cof-
fee. 2 -4 days later, hibernation was induced 
again. In total, each p atient had hibernated for 
about 40 days. Patients didn’t remember any-
thing about their hibernation. After awakening, 
they didn’t experience any unpleasant sensa-
tions. On the contrary, the pain caused by their 
tumors diminished or completely disappeared, 
and their overall condition improved. Patients 
experienced weight gain and increased appetite. In the cases where the brain was affected by me-
tastases, there was an improvement in mental 
activity. A significant decrease in the size of the 
tumors (sometimes u p to 50%) and a delay in re-
lapse were also observed. The rate of tumor 
growth during relapses was significantly re-
duced. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frWhenever possible, the authors of this method 
took biopsies of tumors prior to patients’ expo-
sure to hibernation, during their hiberna tion, 
and following it. The comparison of the results 
of two biopsies demonstrated clear changes in 
the treatment process. For instance, blood ves-
sels in the tumors narrowed down and disap-
peared. After being affected by the cold for 48 
hours, tumor cells s tained poorly, they swelled, 
and the protoplasm was granulated. Destructive 
changes were also observed in the chromaffin 
apparatus. However, as the authors of this 
method determined, all of these changes in tu-
mors were not permanent, with the exception of 
two cases where tumors and metastases disap-
peared completely in two women with breast 
cancer. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frFay and Smith attributed the observed changes 
in malignant tumors to their direct exposure to 
cold, but the current data on hypobiosis may 
change this point of v iew. Cold is only one way 
of introducing a person into the state of hypo-
biosis, but it may be different, and changes in tu-
mor tissues were caused by hypobiosis or the 
deep body disintegration to the cell level, which 
occurs during hypobiosis. Day 9 . Based on my practice, I consider this day 
to be one of the most important for treatment. If you reach this stage, try to put all of your ef-
forts, patience, and will into going through it. During this period, your body temperature may 
rise and you may experience headaches. Patients 
often want to douse themselves with cold water. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frAs I mentioned, if you enjoy it, it’s allowed. The 
most interesting thing is that the whole body 
burns, but legs and arms are cold, even in the 
summer. Your heart rate can increase signifi-
cantly, which is a reaction to a fever. This day 
can be considered a real crisis aimed at treating 
and rejuvenating the body. If you feel very weak, 
it’s best to lie down in a cool place, preferably 
near the river. Silence is very important on thi s 
day. Time will pass very slowly, so it’s advisable 
to engage in some sort of activity. The most im-
portant thing is to understand that there are only 
a few hours left, but they mean a lot to the treat-
ment of your body. You can engage in massage 
if you wan t, but if you don’t feel the desire to do 
it, it’s best not to. Weight loss approximates 1 -
1.5 kg. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frThis stage of fasting has a very powerful anti -
aging effect. Why is the body rejuvenated? Dry fasting leads to more powerful body reju-
venation than other types of fasting because sick, 
altered, and weak cells can’t withstand extreme 
and harsh conditions. They die and disintegrate. Which ones are preserved? They are cells with a 
proper structure, and efficient and wise genetics. They are the ones that didn’t panic, survived and 
remained active. Thus, fasting helps to get rid of useless, weak, 
sick, and harmful cells, and they’re eliminated 
from the body. These cells are parasites. They 
don’t perform their functions, work, and duties. It’s best for you to get rid of them in time, rather 
than let them die naturally, since they can only 
recreate the same lifeless and inefficient 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frprogeny. Cells divide by multiplying. Their 
progeny can’t surpass them in quality. Only 
strong cells survive fasting. They divide and 
quality is improved. Their substitutes will have 
the properties of parent cells. When cells exist in 
comfortable conditions, they get used to a con-
stant level and volume of incoming nutrition 
and liquid. They lose the ability to effectively up-
grade and recov er. Cells seem to be too lazy to 
launch the tissue self -renewal mechanisms. As 
soon as the supply of nutrition and liquid to the 
gastrointestinal tract stops, fundamentally new 
conditions of existence are created in the body. During dry fasting, old biomol ecules are “de-
stroyed,” unstable cells die and disintegrate 
(compensating the deficit of energy and nutri-
ents). At the same time, new cells, capable of 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frsurviving in altered conditions, are synthesized. This mechanism explains the fact that the stom-
ach can even digest nails after dry fasting. Nowadays, it’s no secret to anyone that thera-
peutic fasting results not only in a general invig-
orating effect, but also in positive sexual changes 
in both men and women. In male patients, sex-
ual attraction to the opposi te sex increases; erec-
tion and the quality of seminal fluid improve. It’s 
no wonder men in many cultures underwent a 
fasting treatment course before conception to 
get strong and healthy offspring. In female pa-
tients, libido increases along with the sensiti vity 
of erogenous zones. It’s possible to eradicate 
menstrual irregularities and menopausal symp-
toms and improve the ability to conceive and 
bear children. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frThese changes are primarily associated with the 
therapeutic effects of fasting on all organs and 
systems. After all, our sexual health is directly 
dependent on the overall condition of the body, 
and any problems in this sphere are associated 
primarily with its malfunctioning. During fast-
ing, all organs and systems are detoxified, cell 
nutrition improves throughout the body, and 
the quality of biosynthesis is enhanced. Endo-
crine glands begin to function better, and hor-
monal balance improves. Fasting leads to rejuve-
nation. Besides, the experiments of S.A. Arekalyan 
showed an improvement in the reproductive 
functions of animals during apportioned fasting. The same changes occur in humans. Fasting 
brings your body state closer to that of a young 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frperson, and the distinctive feature of youth is the 
increased attraction to the opposite sex. Long -
term fasting has the greatest impact on the sex-
ual system, which leads to deeper detoxification 
and renewal of the body, though short -term fast-
ing also has this positive effect (fasting until a 
crisis, mid -length fasting). Inadequate intake of nutrients by the body and 
their subsequently limited delivery to cells pro-
long their life by activating intracellular autoph-
agy - splitting and processing damaged mito-
chondria and other cellular structures, which 
can later be used as new cellular material for vital 
functions. In turn,  young cells have the ability to 
quickly process damaged structures remaining 
from the old cells and use them to build new or-
ganelles or replenish energy. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frUnfortunately, as cells age, they lose this ability, 
which leads to the accumulation of damaged or-
ganelles and aging of the entire body. The exper-
iments on animals carried out by scientists prove 
that fasting increases the ability of heart muscle 
cells to self -detox in old animals up to 120%, and 
it barely affects the state of cells in young ani-
mals. The resistance of microorganisms and plants to 
the effects of harsh external factors (high and 
low temperatures, droughts, etc. ), which make 
them fall into a state of rest or anabiosis, should 
be considered a protective mechanism devel-
oped during a long evolutionary process. Ironi-
cally, the most effective methods from the vari-
ety of tested and identified means of prolonging 
life turned out to be the simplest ones: a body 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frtemperature drop in cold -blooded organisms, 
fasting and low -calorie diets in warm -blooded 
animals. These simple methods can lead to a two -or 
three -fold increase in life expectancy. All the 
data suggest that with aging or diseases, the most 
important body systems, including regulatory 
ones, have to be kept clean to allow them to func-
tion normall y. The increase in human life expec-
tancy brought on by periodic dry fasting or low -
calorie diets is similar to a prolongation of life in 
animals achieved by hibernation when the body 
nourishes itself with its own reserves at low body 
temperature. It’s established that the higher the 
total duration of hibernation in animals (during 
their whole life), the longer their life expectancy 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr– both the whole life and the part that they spend 
in their waking state. After mastering the method of placing people 
in anabiosis (hibernation) artificially, it’s possi-
ble to obtain powerful means to fight the most 
severe pathological conditions and diseases, 
many of which are difficult or simply impossible 
to cure now. I believe that any type of fasting is one of the 
most affor dable methods of preventing diseases 
and maintaining your health. It’s important to 
understand that you can’t stay completely 
healthy only by fasting, but it can significantly 
reduce the likelihood of diseases. Therefore, the 
best option is preventative fasting along with 
proper nutrition and regular exercises. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr17. Dry fractional fasting. Who do we 
recommend it to? In my practice, there were patients who under-
went 11 -day, 12 -day, and even 13 -day dry fast-
ing treatments. Of course, this is a “between life 
and death” option, since it’s recommended to 
patients with serious pathologies after undergo-
ing powerful medical therapy. Besides, their vital 
energy was lowered. Therefore, taking into ac-
count our experience and mistakes, we devel-
oped a milder and more phys iologically suitable 
method, namely, dry fractional fasting, which 
has the same effectiveness as long -term dry fast-
ing. The essence of this method is that it stipulates 
for several (usually two or three) consecutive dry 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frfasting courses (fractions). The first one lasts 5 -
7 days, the second one lasts 7 -9 days, and the 
third one lasts 9 days. Restorative nutrition is 
carried out according to a special method be-
tween these courses. The first part of fasting is detoxing, and it lasts 
as long as the patient can withstand; one may 
swim in waterfalls and mountain rivers during 
this period for better body detox. The first aci-
dotic crisis occurs during the first fasting course. It’s characterized by effective body detox, and 
patients realize what it is. Following the  crisis, 
they come out of fasting through a special course 
of Altai herbal medicine that provide the body 
with a lot of energy. The second dry fasting course is curative. It 
should last as long as possible to go through the 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frmost curative acidotic crisis ( the second one). The second fasting course is much easier than 
the first one, both physically and psychologi-
cally. Sometimes, a third (final) dry fasting course is 
required for patients with very serious diseases. The most important thing is that every f asting 
course entails an increasingly faster transition to 
endogenous nutrition and high -quality biosyn-
thesis. The fractional method is good because it 
doesn’t allow obese people to gain weight. Weight is lost progressively. As a result, obese 
people not only lose their weight, but it also 
drops 2 -3 kg below the norm. It activates their 
bodies in a very powerful manner, and they 
don’t gain weight subsequently, rather, it stays at 
the same level. Besides, excessive fat cells die, 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frwhich means that their number is reduced. Therefore, fat cells gain their content during re-
storative nutrition, but their number is lower, 
and patients don’t feel weak. Fat cells only begin 
to be destroyed following an acidotic crisis. After 
a full fractional fasting course, the number of fat 
cells in the body is normalized. There are as 
many of them, as at a young age, and patients 
look slim and youthful. The destruction of fat 
cells is possible only during fasting. All kinds of 
diets only deplete fat cells. As soon as people 
start e ating normally, they quickly recover, and 
patients gain weight again. Fractional fasting is very effective in treating 
obesity. This pendulum -like fasting cycle makes 
it possible to improve the reserve defenses of the 
body and its detoxification increasing ly more 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frwith each fasting course. How does the effect in-
crease during fractional fasting? An additional 
benefit of this method is that we gave the cell a 
chance to detox, restored the functionality, 
memory capacity, and cell energy potential after 
the first detox stage, and then the second fasting 
course provides it with the opportunity to com-
plete the started process - to find and fix what-
ever was missed. It’s just like switching on the 
super -compensation mechanism in detoxifica-
tion through fasting. Everyt hing that was over-
looked to an extent is fully detoxed. It turns out 
that the body approaches new positive stresses 
with increased readiness each time. In this 
method, one fasting course is followed by an-
other, and the therapeutic effect is increased. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frThis is the main difference from dry fasting ac-
cording to L.A. Shchennikov: he conducts dry 
fasting for a maximum duration of 9, 10, 11 days 
at once. Cascade fasting by V.P. Lavrova. Patients un-
dergo dry fasting courses, with equal periods of 
fasting and non -fasting, in cascades (one/one, 
two/two, five/five). This fasting method is very 
effective, but it must be conducted for a very 
long time to reach the second therapeutic aci-
dotic crisis. In our method, the duration of dry 
fasting increases with every cycle, so the second 
acidotic crisis occurs in a shorter period of time. I really like this method as it has powerful heal-
ing potential, and the effects of rejuvenation and 
weight loss are quite evident. Most importantly, 
patients undergo it with much greater eas e, and 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frthere are almost no complications. Ideally, you 
can try this method after preparing for fasting 
(healthy nutrition, bowel and liver detox, water  
fasting, 5 -day dry fasting course). Undergo a 7 -
day dry fasting course followed by 2 -3 weeks of 
coming out of fasting, and then a 9 -day dry fast-
ing course. If problems remain, you will need 1 
month to withdraw from it before another 9 -day 
dry fasting course. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr 
18. How to come out of a 9 -day dry 
fasting course? You need to prepare Bolotov's whey (see above) 
and meltwater to properly come out of a 9 -day 
dry fasting course. How to prepare meltwater  
• Water preserves its acquired structure for sev-
eral hours, although it loses it when heated. However, water that has just melted has the 
greatest biological po wer (when there are still 
pieces of ice in it). • The easiest method  makes it possible to com-
pletely remove deuterium. When water starts 
freezing, remove the newly formed crust of 
ice. It’s deuterium that freezes first. When the 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frmain part of water freezes, r inse the frozen 
piece with cold tap water. It should become 
transparent, as the water will remove harmful 
impurities from the ice. Next, melt the ice and 
drink the meltwater you prepared. • The second method . Heat a small amount of 
liquid to 94 -96C. Water sh ouldn’t boil, but 
only start bubbling. At this point, remove the 
pan and cool it down rapidly, then freeze and 
melt the water. The meltwater prepared this 
way goes through all the phases of its circula-
tion in nature: evaporating, cooling, freezing, 
and mel ting. This kind of water is especially 
useful as it has tremendous internal energy 
potential. • The third method . Water is cooled in the re-
frigerator until the first ice appears (if it’s tap 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frwater, let is stand for a few hours to get rid of 
dissolved gases). Throw this ice away, as it 
contains the impurities that prefer the solid 
state. The remaining water is further frozen 
until most of it turns into ice (but not all of it). This ice is taken out and used for its intended 
purpose. The remaining liquid is pou red out 
as it contains the impurities that prefer the liq-
uid state. You will lose about 5% at the begin-
ning and 10% in the end. • Dew water . If you put sprouted wheat in melt-
water for a day (3 tablespoons per liter), you 
will get dew water. Its composition i s very 
close to that of natural dew. This water is con-
sidered the most beneficial for the body. It 
perfectly detoxifies and charges body cells. It’s 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frbetter to use it when coming out of dry fast-
ing. Follow these important rules when coming 
out of fasting:  
• Come out of a fast for as many days as you 
fast. One day of dry fasting is equivalent to 
three days of water  fasting. Thus, if your dry 
fasting course lasts for 9 days, you need to 
come out of it for 30 days or a whole month! • First and foremost, drink wate r. It’s best to use 
dew, spring, or meltwater. The way you drink 
matters: you must add three capsules of 
"LINEX" or, better yet, Bolotov's whey (se-
rum) to the first glass of water. Drink it over 
the course of fifteen minutes. Most im-
portantly, do it slowly , sip by sip, so that you 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frmake your last sip in the fourteenth minute. Don’t drink a glass of water in ten minutes or 
less, as it’s very risky. The water consumption 
systems may not cope with it, so you may faint 
or face other harsh consequences. Drink eig ht 
glasses of water this way within six -eight 
hours, and then you can brush your teeth. In 
very rare cases, the first sip of water can cause 
nausea. In this case, hold every sip of water in 
the mouth, mixing it with saliva, and then 
swallow it 20- 30 seconds later. • You can combine drinking water with taking 
a shower. After a shower, douse yourself with 
cold water, and then take a warm (not hot) 
bath with herbal infusions (no longer than 8 
minutes). At the same time, you should keep 
drinking water for 12 hour s. 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr• Ideally, it’s best to start coming out of a dry 
fast with Bolotov's whey (serum). Put 1 table-
spoon of it in a glass of water, and it will per-
fectly restore your intestinal microflora. • If you don’t feel the taste of food while chew-
ing or if it tastes lik e cotton, it means that your 
stomach isn’t ready to digest it. You don’t 
need this food, so wait for a few days before 
trying it again. • If you feel discomfort during or after eating – 
stomach pain, dry mouth, or reluctance to 
keep eating it – stop eating this food. It means 
that it’s harmful, and don’t feel sorry for the 
money spent on this food because your health 
is more important. • You can gradually consume bees’ waste prod-
ucts, honey and pollen from the 2nd day on. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frFood should be varied and full of vitam ins, 
micro and macro elements. During the first 
five days of coming out of a dry fast, you 
should eat only fresh, clean, and high -quality 
food products. Don’t eat sugar and sugar -con-
taining canned products. It’s better to drink 
juices and eat fruit through out this period, so 
that the body keeps detoxing. • You can start adding salt to your food on the 
4th day of coming out of fasting, and it’s best 
to use rock or sea salt. Do it very gradually, use 
the tip of a knife. • When coming out of a fast, it’s important to 
drink Java tea for a month to help your kid-
neys function, due to the heavy burden on 
them. In the summer or autumn, you can eat 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frwatermelons, which is the perfect way to 
break a fast. • Be prepared for mild numbness in your toes 
and fingers while coming out of a fast. This 
symptom will pass with time. Your vision may 
also be altered, but these changes will also 
pass. If you have dry skin, it can become drier 
and may peel off while fasting. The skin on 
your face and nose may crack. Apply different 
fruit masks for significant skin improvement. • When coming out of a fast, please use cupping 
and honey massage for faster body detox and 
improved lymphatic drainage. • When coming out of a fast, you need to stay 
away from draft s and cold weather, especially 
during the first days. This is when the im-
mune system is reset to neutralize food and 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frwater, so the body is weakened. When the 
body is reset, the immunity will be even 
stronger than it was prior to the fast. Coming out of fa st. Methodology

A nutritional program for coming out of a 
fast 
After fasting, you can normalize digestion eas-
ily and quickly. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr• Make it a rule not to eat after 7 pm. If you fol-
low it, you will sleep well at night and feel 
fresh in the morning. Your body will self -de-
tox and  your fat content will be balanced. • Eat breakfast anytime between 8 -10 am (ear-
lier if possible). Eat fresh vegetable salads; in-
clude carrots, cabbage, and greens (braised 
vegetables in the winter). Bread from 
sprouted grains with honey or seaweed or 
porrid ge with a drop of oil will be your main 
course. Together with cabbage, carrots, and 
greens, they will stimulate your digestive 
tract functioning and healthy microflora; re-
store endocrine system functioning through 
feedback. Eat a salad first. It will activ ate a 
number of processes that underlie the normal 
functioning of the body. For example, it 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frstimulates the secretion of digestive juices, 
because raw vegetables are rich in natural 
stimulants. After a few years of this type of 
nutrition, you will feel that  your body prefers 
this food. As a result, fresh vegetables and 
fruits can constitute 60% of your daily diet. Fresh vegetables, fruits, and juices are rich in 
energy and vitality. • People who are prone to obesity should avoid 
eating sugar, bread, and cereals or eat them in 
minimal quantities, though porridge must be 
fresh. It’s absolutely necessary to chew them 
carefully. When eating fast, a person eats 3 -5 
times more porridge than necessary. It leads 
to obesity. If you eat a small amount of it, 
chewing it to the state of milk (according to 
H. Fletcher), you’ll get rid of constipation, 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frimprove bowel movement (it accelerates four 
times while chewing), and eliminate conges-
tion in the gastrointestinal tract. • For very effective body detox, take Zal-
manov’s mixed turpentine baths when com-
ing out of a fast. A full course consists of ten 
baths. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr19. What diseases can be cured through 
dry fasting? 19.1. Dry fasting for acute diseases. First of all, let’s clarify what a disease is. Let’s 
call a disease a certain temporary state of the 
body, during which it goes from its stable state 
(health) of functioning into another (unhealthy) 
state, which is not characteristic of it. The body 
unbala nced by a disease puts efforts (therefore, 
vitality and energy) to return to its original 
(healthy) state. An acute disease is a time period 
when the body tries to restore its former 
(healthy) state by activating vital forces and 
wasting energy. The signs of an acute disease 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr(such as a fever, loss of appetite, and fatigue) in-
dicate the following: 
• A fever indicates that the vital force is activated 
and the body is getting rid of the cause of the 
disease through sweating;  
• Loss of appetite indicates that the v ital force is 
being preserved because it is no longer spent 
on digestion;  
• Fatigue indicates that the vital force is being 
preserved because it is no longer spent on 
physical and secondary functional body activ-
ities. Patients fully recover from an acute co ndition 
if they have an adequate supply of vital force and 
when they preserve it by refusing to eat food and 
stay inactive. The intake of any medications and 
antifebrile drugs isn’t recommended. On the 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frcontrary, they stop, suppress, and harm this pro-
cess. True doctors of antiquity and modern phy-
sicians did everything possible to make this nat-
ural process easier. Don’t think that fasting should be used only for 
serious conditions and you can keep eating as 
long as the body can digest food. On the con-
trary, s kipping a few meals at the onset of the dis-
ease is often sufficient to prevent a serious con-
dition. If functional disorders are still insignifi-
cant, as indicated by a coated tongue, headache, 
feeling generally unwell, and other equally mi-
nor symptoms, shor t-term fasting is enough for 
the body to eliminate intoxication before devel-
oping a serious condition. If a person undergoes fasting in a calm setting 
at the first signs of the disease, acute diseases will 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frbe mild and short -term in most cases. A patient 
feels less discomfort, pain is weaker, there’s no 
fever, weight loss is smaller, complications that 
follow the disease are rare, and its duration is 
much shorter than in patients who keep eating 
when they’re sick. There’s only one conclusion - 
as soon as you have the symptoms of an acute 
condition, such as a loss of appetite and high fe-
ver, start fasting at once, and you will recover 
quickly and without complications. 19.1.1. Fasting for acute infections (acute res-
piratory diseases, influenza)  
Fasting is co mmon and natural if you have any 
viral infection. In fact, any acute infection manifested by in-
flammatory changes in the upper respiratory 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frtract, runny nose, cough, sore throat, and fever 
is a detoxifying crisis. With its help, the body is 
trying to get rid of excessive nutrition and escape 
from overload, stress, and other adverse factors. The effectiveness of dry fasting is very high. Any 
inflammatory disease is treated 2 -3 times faster 
than with normal water  fasting. Please be aware that inflammation can’t exist 
without liquid. Any inflamed area swells (swells 
with liquid). Microorganisms, such as microbes 
and viruses, can multiply only in sufficiently hu-
mid conditions. Water deficiency is extremely 
harmful for inflammation. The human body can 
withstand 10-day water deprivation (with low 
activity and high air temperature). Microbes die 
instantly without water. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frOddly enough, the body can synthesize water 
itself. It receives oxygen from the air and hydro-
gen from fatty tissues. Therefore, weight loss can 
reach 3 kg per day during dry fasting, but only at 
the expense of water. I must say that the body 
also has certain water reserves. Up to 2 liters of 
water is deposited just in the skin. There are wa-
ter reserves in some body cavities (serous cavi-
ties) and internal organs. At the very least, the 
body can always withstand 5 days, even with an 
active lifestyle. As I said, the effectiveness of dry fasting treat-
ment is 2 -3 times higher than that of water  fast-
ing. Acute respiratory diseases can be cured in 
just one  day, influenza in 2 -3 days, and pneumo-
nia in 4 -5 days. Of course, dry fasting is subjec-
tively rather difficult and is accompanied by 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frweakness. However, I met people who hadn’t felt 
weak during dry fasting, and even experienced 
mild euphoria. Sometimes, we  are in certain conditions that 
leave almost no time for normal treatment and 
even regular fasting. You can try dry fasting 
without cleansing the intestines during flights, 
trips with transfers, or in complicated condi-
tions when it’s impossible to prepare properly. Subjectively, this type of fasting is tolerated with 
more difficulty, but its anti -inflammatory effect 
will be exactly the same. Since the treatment 
won’t take a lot of time due to its high effective-
ness, the recovery period will also be short. Short- term therapeutic fasting, both water  and 
dry, can be successfully used not only in treating 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frcolds but also in all cases of inflammation in any 
internal or external organs. Fasting is equally effective for treating skin 
blotches and liver inflammation (hepatitis), in-
ner ear inflammation and periostitis. Regardless 
of the location of the inflammation, the effect is 
always very good. How to cure acute respiratory diseases in the 
shortest time possible? I really don’t know a 
more effective method than shor t-term fasting. Sometimes, sick people start fasting after step-
ping on the airplane ramp and they come off the 
plane completely healthy, thanks to short -term 
fasting. Performance impairment is not the most im-
portant harmful effect caused by catarrhal dis-
eases. On the average, only acute respiratory 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frdiseases take 25 years of our life. Pneumonia is 
the most common complication of influenza. As 
a rule, it’s a secondary bacterial infection. A 
combined infection (viral and bacterial pneu-
monia) develops more rare ly. Primary viral 
pneumonia is a rare complication characterized 
by a high mortality rate. It develops when influ-
enza is caused by a virus of the highest virulence. At the same time, rapid and deadly hemorrhagic 
pneumonia develops, lasting no longer than 3 -4 
days. True and primary influenza pneumonia 
primarily affects patients with chronic heart and 
lung conditions accompanied by pulmonary en-
gorgement. Other secondary bacterial infections 
that often develop following influenza include 
rhinitis, sinusitis, b ronchitis, and otitis. Influ-
enza and acute respiratory viral infections are in 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frthe first place in the frequency and number of 
cases in the world, and they constitute 95% of all 
infectious diseases. Every year, up to 500 million 
people in the world get sick , and 2 million of 
them die. So, you caught a cold at the wrong moment. Let's be realistic and try to determine your con-
dition at once because it largely depends on the 
type of infection. If you have a simple acute res-
piratory disease, 1 -2 days will be eno ugh to cure 
you. If you have influenza, the case is more seri-
ous, and you will need at least 3 days to get bet-
ter. If you’re unfortunate enough to get pneumo-
nia, I saw only one patient who treated this dis-
ease in just 4 days of fasting. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frThere are more tha n 140 causative agents of 
acute respiratory diseases and only a few influ-
enza viruses (different strains). How to distinguish an acute respiratory disease 
from influenza? An acute respiratory disease is 
usually characterized by a mild fever (38°). Body 
temperature is usually about 37.5° -37.8°C. This 
disease lasts for no longer than 2 weeks if it’s not 
treated. Influenza is more serious. It’s consid-
ered a serious infectious disease characterized by 
a high fever (above 38°C) and it lasts over 3 
weeks. Only y our doctor can diagnose pneumo-
nia, since the respiratory sounds and noises dur-
ing chest auscultation (examination) are very 
specific. If you suddenly feel sick and have a sore 
throat and runny nose, start fasting immediately 
without delaying it even for an  hour. Viruses are 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frvery tricky. They used to have a cellular structure 
in the past, but then they acquired a simpler 
structure in the process of evolution. A virus is 
just a DNA chain (there are also RNA -contain-
ing viruses) surrounded by a shell that makes  it 
much easier for it to survive. A virus secretes 
special enzymes that dissolve the nasal mucosa 
and penetrates it. After penetrating the mucous 
membrane, a virus inserts its DNA into the mu-
cosal DNA. As a result, the previously normal 
cell starts synthe sizing viral DNA instead of its 
own DNA. In the end, it dies and a large number 
of viruses are produced and penetrate other 
cells. The reaction develops like an avalanche, and it 
is very fast. Therefore, it’s necessary to start 
treatment without delaying i t for a day or even 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frfor an hour. Dead cells secrete biologically active 
substances or BASs. Together with viral toxins, 
biologically active substances cause the inflam-
mation that loosens cell membranes and con-
tributes to the further and more rapid spread o f 
viruses. After affecting the nasal cavity and the 
development of such unpleasant symptoms as 
runny nose and sneezing, trachea and bronchi 
are affected and such symptoms as cough, chest 
pain, and others develop. Initially, inflammation 
is viral, but then bacteria start multiplying in in-
flamed tissues. Under normal conditions, 
they’re incapable of parasitizing inside the body, 
which is why they are called conditionally path-
ogenic. In this case, after getting to the tissues 
weakened by a virus, they develop vigorously, 
just like viruses. Microbial inflammation starts 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frdominating a virus at some point, and it lasts for 
a long time after viruses are eliminated from the 
body. An acute respiratory disease causes so much 
stress to the body that microbleeds remain in the 
brain even after a complete recovery. That's what 
an acute respiratory disease is, although it seems 
harmless at first glance. Dry fasting is definitely 
an invaluable help in treatment. The combina-
tion of fasting with an acute infection helps the 
body to detox quickly and rest from the damag-
ing effects of external factors. The best option is to start fasting after the first 
signs of disease appear. If you feel even mild 
symptoms of a disease, stop eating and drinking 
at once. In this case, 1 -3 days will be sufficient 
for you to eliminate it. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frIn reality, there are only a few  people who are 
this attentive to their health. Therefore, most pa-
tients undergo fasting only when they encounter 
severe signs of respiratory infection, so treat-
ment requires more time. They'll have to fast for at least 5 -7 days, which 
makes it pre -crisis fasting. It’s better not to over-
work and avoid hydrotherapeutic procedures, 
enemas, and drugs. The best option is bed rest 
with gradual expansion as you begin to feel bet-
ter. The crisis occurs sooner if you have acute in-
fections (in most cases, on the 2 -3rd day), but 
you need to fast until the symptoms of the dis-
ease disappear. Otherwise, you may need a pro-
longed treatment course. The body temperature 
is normalized in the first two days of illness. In-
stead of antifebrile drugs, you can apply cold 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frwater com presses to your head and great vessels 
(your groin and axillary cavities) and wrap your 
body in wet cloth. When I’ve only started my work on dry fasting, 
I fell through ice while fishing on Baikal. It was -
30 degrees Celsius, and I had to ride a motorcy-
cle for about twenty kilometers. After this bath, 
I started having terrible pains in my forehead. The X -ray confirmed that I had acute frontal si-
nusitis. I couldn’t even lower my head due to the 
pain, and I had a fever (38°). It’s obvious that I 
didn’t have any appetite at all. I understood that 
liquid is always connected with swelling and in-
flammation, so I also stopped drinking water. My body temperature was normal on the third 
day, pain in my forehead was relieved on the 
fifth day, and I came out of fasting  on the sixth 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frday. The frontal sinusitis was no longer present, 
and I underwent dry fasting whenever I con-
tracted influenza or acute respiratory disease. I’ve had no influenza or acute respiratory dis-
eases for ten years. In the past, when I got sick, I immediately un-
derwent dry fasting for two or three days until all 
the symptoms of the disease disappeared, but 
these terms were usually sufficient. My immune 
system seems to be so well trained that I don’t 
get sick in the midst of any epidemic, and neither 
do my patients who underwent a dry therapeutic 
fasting course and no longer contract any respir-
atory diseases. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr19.1.2. Dry fasting for the relapse of gastric ul-
cer or duodenal ulcer, chronic pancreatitis, 
cholecystitis, colitis, etc. What causes this therapeutic effect? • Inflammation can’t exist without liquid. Any 
inflamed area swells (swells with liquid). Mi-
croorganisms, such as microbes and viruses, 
can multiply only in sufficiently humid condi-
tions. Shortage of water is extremely harmful 
for inflammation . It’s worth mentioning that, 
according to modern data, the cause of ulcers 
is infectious. • Of course, the gastrointestinal tract has more 
rest than other organs during fasting. As it has 
been said, no food means no problems. There’s 
no need to excrete digestive juices, push food 
through all the sections of the intestines, spend 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fra lot of energy on this process, neutralize, and 
excrete all of those substances that enter the 
body with food. Now, all the forces can be used 
to recover, including the restoration of the or-
gans involved in digestion. • During fasting, the gastric and duodenal mu-
cosa is balanced and restored. It’s manifested 
through a decrease or complete disap -pear-
ance of such symptoms as pain, nausea, heart-
burn, and vomiting. New ulcers are cicatrized 
and cicatricial changes in gastric and duodenal 
walls disappear. As mentioned above, experts 
from the Moscow Institute of Gastroenterol-
ogy found that new stomach cells with light 
protoplasm appear in patients after a 28 -day 
calorie restriction diet, and these are gradually 
transformed into mucoid cells within 20 -30 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frdays after the completion of diet -fasting ther-
apy RDT30. These cells secrete mucus and sub-
stances that protect the stomach from damage. After repeated RDT courses, the stomach be-
comes very strong and capable of digesting any 
food even in patients with gastro -intestinal 
problems. • Fasting greatly improves liver function. It 
causes a mild choleretic effect and restores 
liver cells. Patients with gallstone disease in-
stinctively resort to fasting, which relieves pain 
and normalizes liver and gall bladder function. The liver is detoxified naturally: unwanted 
 
30 RDT – this term was introduced in the 1960s by Professor Yuri 
Nikolayev (Razgrzochno -Dieticheskaja Terapiya - or fasting dietary 
therapy. See introductory article). Recently, RDT often indicates 
Russian Diet Therapy to differentiate it from others. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frproducts are removed and stones are dis-
solved. • Good re sults are achieved when treating a dis-
ease as grave as acute pancreatitis. 275 patients 
with acute pancreatitis underwent fasting 
treatment under the surveillance of Academi-
cian A.N. Bakulev in the Spasokukotsky clinic 
in mid -1950s. All of them were discha rged in 
good condition. Based on this experience, it 
was concluded that fasting is beneficial in pan-
creatitis treatment, and our method is now 
widely used for its acute and chronic forms. 10–15 days of water  fasting or 4 –5 days of dry 
fasting are usually sufficient for a good thera-
peutic effect. The main principle of treating 
pancreatitis is relieving pain, shock and 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frcollapse, and ensuring the functional rest of 
the pancreas and its detox. • There’s no other method besides fasting that 
almost entirely relieve s the burden on the di-
gestive tract. Thus, it’s no wonder that it’s so 
effective in treating different gastrointestinal 
disorders. We can only wonder at the igno-
rance of our medicine, which uses expensive 
medications, long -term examinations, and 
surgical p rocedures (instead of effective, fast, 
cheap treatment) that not only fail to cure pa-
tients but also turn them into people with 
chronic diseases who are disabled and con-
stantly require medical services. That’s why 
you should be responsible for your health and 
start fasting to restore your appetite, excellent 
digestion, and healthy and regular stool. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr 
19.1.3. Dry fasting for diabetes  
In my practice, there were only a few patients 
with diabetes, because water  fasting is very effec-
tive for patients with type II diabetes. This is 
what Dr. G.A. Voitovich, one of the therapeutic 
fasting experts, writes on the topic, “Since diabe-
tes is a disease with origins in the nervous and 
endocrine systems, its treatment with dosed fast-
ing is sure to bring positive results too  – it’s our 
conclusion. Moreover, we learned from foreign sources 
that doctors in the West, Japan, and especially in 
India have long considered diabetes to be one of 
the diseases treatable with fasting. However, in 
practice we rarely treated this disease in our de-
partment. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frWe started studying this subject more closely 
only after the all -USSR symposia on RDT when 
doctors from Armenia, Odessa, and other places 
reported on the successful treatment of even se-
vere forms of diabetes with dosed fasting. We 
were particularly interes ted in the method used 
in Yerevan, where patients with severe diabetes, 
obesity, and gangrenous ulcers on their legs were 
treated with several 11 -day RDT courses quite 
successfully while still taking hormonal medica-
tions, but at 5 -10-times smaller doses. Initially, we had only a few people with mild 
forms of diabetes who didn’t take insulin. Dur-
ing dosed fasting treatment, their blood sugar 
level dropped. During the recovery period, it in-
creased again, but it didn’t go far beyond the 
norm. The general condition of these patients 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frimproved: weakness, itching, thirst, and in-
creased appetite were eliminated. One patient 
with diabetes was cured completely at the initial 
stage, and has not relapsed for over 25 years. Doctor G. Sarkisyan from the clinic of endo-
crine diseases in Yerevan conducted 2 -3 fasting 
courses for 10 -11 days in seriously ill patients. One patient was threatened with amputation be-
cause of foot gangrene. After two 11 -day fasting

Now, let’s try to find out what a chronic disease 
is in more detail. If the vital force isn’t sufficient to fully recover 
the bodily function to its former (healthy) stable 
state, the body stabilizes its function in an inter-
mediate state between being healthy and being 
sick. This intermediate state is called an indolent 
or chronic disease. A chronic disease is charac-
terized by the fact that the pathogen remaining 
in the body wants to stay there and develop 
within it. In turn, the body wants to return to its 
original healthy state. In both cases, the body 
must use its vital  force and adapt to functioning 
on the edge. It leads to activation of certain com-
pensatory mechanisms, and the body of a chron-
ically ill person keeps functioning in a more or 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frless tolerable state as long as there is enough vital 
force to maintain them. As  soon as the body 
can’t maintain the compensatory mechanisms 
that restrain a disease, there’s a new relapse of 
the disease and it conquers additional living 
space. In turn, the body keeps fighting it by 
forming new compensatory mechanisms, thus 
spending mo re vital force on their maintenance. As a result of the redistribution of vital force, the 
body disables a number of minor biological 
functions for the sake of survival. First of all, the 
sexual function is deactivated because it requires 
a lot of energy; the overall body tone decreases, 
there’s early aging with accompanying condi-
tions, and the life expectancy decreases consid-
erably. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frBased on the above -mentioned facts, the pro-
cess of healing the body is completed in stages. First, the level of vitality is r estored through en-
ergy -saving mechanisms. It will transfer the 
body from one compensatory stage to another 
up to the last one (a state of complete health). The transition from one compensatory level to 
another will be marked by acute conditions: re-
lapses o f pre -existing chronic diseases that will 
eventually disappear. Every patient can get rid of 
any chronic disease completely only after going 
through a series of relapses. After every relapse, 
you will restore a previously lost function. At 
first, vigor wil l be restored, and then the signs of 
premature aging will disappear and the sexual 
function will be reestablished. Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frWe’ve described what chronic diseases are in 
general. Based on my experience, I prefer the hy-
pothesis of naturopathic physicians. Endoge-
nous body intoxication is one of the causes of 
numerous chronic diseases, and it’s caused by a 
disruption in the normal functioning of the gas-
trointestinal tract and liver. The gastrointestinal 
tract is a common source of toxins. Food decom-
poses in the stomach and intestines because of 
either overeating or indigestion, and a certain 
part of the produced toxins is absorbed into the 
blood. Under normal conditions, the liver de-
stroys these toxins, and the intestines and kid-
neys remove them. However, if the function s of 
these organs are disrupted, toxins enter the 
blood in such an amount that they overload 
these organs and the body is forced to look for

them. Have you ever wondered why the blood 
from the gastrointestinal tract must first pass 
through the liver before being distributed 
throughout the body? Why are nutrients that are 
absorbed into the bloodstream not spread 
throughout the body immediately? That appens 
because they are alien to the body and they 
would immediately cause an allergic reaction. They are transformed from ‘alien’ to ‘familiar’ in 
the liver. Only in this case can the body can use 
the nutrients obtained from food. Of course, 
body energy is spent on it. Therefore, any disor-
ders or diseases of the gastroin testinal tract and 
liver will inevitably affect the effectiveness of the 
barrier gastrointestinal function in one way or 
another, even if they are asymptomatic. It’s clear 
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frthat these changes will cause an increase in the 
supply of toxins from intestines, thus increasing 
endogenous intoxication. Of course, every per-
son has a weak link in the body, so all the endo-
toxins will rush there, and all the pathological 
processes that lead to diseases will start there. 19.2.1. Dry Fasting for endointoxication and 
atherosclerosis. Let’s examine this phenomenon using the ex-
ample of atherosclerosis and hypertension. Atherosclerosis is a consequence of malfunc-
tioning intestines.

types of cells: macrophages, natural killers (NK -
cells) and cytotoxic T -lymphocytes (CTLs). Macrophages eat and digest malignant cells; af-
ter detecting them, CTLs produce polymer -pro-
teins, perforins, which perforate the outer mem-
brane of a malignant cell, thus equalizing the os-
motic pressure inside and outside the cell and 
killing it, if it’s still alive, additional proteins are 
produced, and these are granzymes that destroy 
its nucleus. A natural killer is special; it’s one of 
the most powerful antitumor cells. It recognizes 
any atypical cells that aren’t recognized by mac-
rophages and CTLs. In patients with benign tumors (fibroids, mas-
topathy, and prostate adenoma), all three types 
of cells are in their suppressed state: most of
