Dispatches from a Daniel Fast

Every year, I do a 21-day fast where I eat only plant-based products. The idea for the fast comes from Daniel in the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible). Daniel and his friends refused to eat meat dedicated to idols, so they ate only vegetables. Like most Christians doing a Daniel fast, I adapt it to include foods like fruit and beans.

Look for three weeks of posts in January about my annual Daniel Fast for spiritual growth, where I eschew all animal products, refined sugar, and junk food for three weeks.
