Starting a 10-14 day water fast

[Akae Beka]

I did it before, only 5 days though. Some people like testing their limits

Spiritual reasons though

You misunderstood my point. That wasn’t directed at you. I’ve experimented with fasting on a few different levels. It has its place but I can’t agree with it being some form of jump start to fitness or improved nutrition.

The point was that someone would endeavor on a 10-14 day water fast with a complication being adding back food which is essential to live...............

There isn't anything wrong with fasting dude. Anything. There's people who went on longer fasts than this. Some people don't have the strength and willpower to do it. Cool. Doesn't mean you have to go downing people

OP probably has no idea why he wants to fast and is just going off exaggerated online testimonials.

Fasts just lower the digestive burden for people with compromised guts. It's not a long term solution, nor is it necessary for weight loss. It can actually promote weight gain in the long run.

Dumbass there's doctor's who say it's perfectly healthy. Stop acting like you know shyt more than a doctor. Educate yourself.

You don’t seem to read and comprehend well and only want to get in a defensive hot take.

Carry on.

Unnecessarily long fasting protocols only function properly when paired with FitTea

That’s too long and too extreme. Go with broths, fruit juices and teas. With water. But only for 24 to 48 hours. If it’s for cleansing, don’t do this for dieting man. It ain’t gonna work

Too long?!? People have gone longer than 2 weeks. I think people underestimate how hardened the human body is. We can go long periods without food.

The question why?

The question why?

Some people fast for spiritual reasons (e.g. Jesus 40 day fast)

Some to push their limits. Some to develop discipline. Some just to get mental clarity.

I fasted once for about 3 days and by the 2nd day, although I was mad hungry, I was mentally sharp. For Lent I’d do a 12 hr fast of just water.

I read when Obama started to turn his life around while at Columbia (eg less smoking, partying etc), he’d fast every Friday as a way to discipline himself.

Going a few weeks without food shouldn’t be met with such derision imho
