Food  Focus:

The Daniel Diet Is a type of partial fast that focuses very heavily on vegetables and other healthy whole foods but leaves out any animal sources of protein.

 

This fast is based on the account in Daniel 10, “In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks.  I ate no pleasant food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.”

Daniel 10: 2-3
