Just trying to detox and see what fasting does. Not doing it for weight loss. Most peoples can do a week. Hunger go away after 3 days apparently. Oh and don't forget your electrolytes. Electrolytes are essential Natrium Kalium Magnesium Pottasium For your cells to keep functioning normal Especially if you are over 30 dont take risks "Kalium" is another name for Potassium.

Do u do water only any minerals or supplements you also take. I feel like I’m being led to fast for an extended period of time so I’m going to. I do what I’m led to do if I’m wrong then I face the consequences oh well ? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 82534828 United States 03/30/2023 09:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The most important thing is breaking your fast. The longer you fast the more gently you must ease out of it or you can kill yourself. Not kidding. Research Re-feeding or re-eating. If you do anything over 5 days you must introduce food slowly. Gentle foods in minimal amounts. Maybe a small portion of scrambled eggs and some arugula. Then don’t eat until the next day. Drink some warm bone broth. After 3 days you can resume normal healthy eating. During your fast it is crucial to get minerals. And clean water. Not tap water it is poison no matter where you live. Take vitamins also. The important ones. Enjoy the autophagy and weight loss as well as the confidence that you will never get cancer. |

Gracias sir I don’t drink tap water already and I’m looking into the other minerals do u suggest any that are crucial? And I’ll take it slow when I start eating again |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 62226146 Then due to the lack of energy and low aerobic demands, your fat stores will not be converted until the easy muscle tissue is lost. Eventually, some fat will be converted. But by then you will be hollowed out like the federal reserve. Advice on killing yourself? I'll pass. This is a total bullshit post. After about three days of fasting the body readily converts fat into ketone which are used for energy. |

Quoting: Grove Street (Redux 3.0) you do feel good afterwards I’m going to try for atleast 5 but I didn’t prep at all and just winging it as I go. So we’ll see. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81674768 If you have lots of weight, like in excess of 100lbs you go months. The World Record is 382 days. That was taking with taking vitamins though. Do 40 days give or take on Snake Juice (electrolyte water) at most. And even 40 days without some type of medical supervision can be risky. Any more than that would be counterproductive. The human body generally goes into literal starvation mode at about 70 days with no food. A girl on youtube documented her 57 day fast, and regretted it (lost a lot of hair and other negative effects). |

Quoting: VISITOR 84892105 Healthier now than when I started it. Look up Mike Thompson, Lions Army Fast. Any supplements or minerals. Tell more about your experience I just drink water. Each long fast that I have completed has been different. I guess it depends on what the body decides to purge itself from on each particular fast. |

I think some chemicals or toxins go out through the hair follicles causing them to terminate. |

Just trying to detox and see what fasting does. Not doing it for weight loss. I did 7 days a month ago, after 3 days on nothing but sardines. If you are detoxing I suggest getting some pint sized water bottles, drink the water then fill up the empty bottles with piss, all the way to the top, every morning. Cap them and save them for two months. You might be surprised to see what forms in them after a few months of precipitation and coagulation. Also, later, after your fast, look up the Hulda Clark Liver Cleanse. That will shock you after you do it. |

The first thing the body uses for energy after three days is visceral fat. So many papers have been done on this . I just did a week water fast and it was great. The first three days are the toughest but after that it gets better. No hunger at all. Drink plenty of alkaline water or regular water enhanced with minerals and electrolytes . I would suggest lemon water too |

Op User ID: 85313067 Netherlands 03/31/2023 07:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I bought some electrolytes sodium supplement made for keto and potassium along with the supplements I already had. So I think I’m good now. I’ll be on day 3 soon. I’m not that hungry I just want to eat. No pains and I can block out the hung times pretty easily |
