People water fast for weeks.

I know a guy that died from water fasting. Also saw a Discovery doc years ago about a guy that died of dehydration in the desert next to a water spring, he had no access to salt.

Water intoxication, also known as water poisoning, hyperhydration, overhydration, or water toxemia is a potentially fatal disturbance in brain functions that results when the normal balance of electrolytes in the body is pushed outside safe limits by excessive water intake.

People are idiots.

Why would you want to starve? Don’t even get me started on vegans. As a whole, so many people die jerking off each year we had to name it.

Morons.

I just looked it up

Number one reason is to lose weight as your body is forced to burn fat but there are other health reasons as your body reacts to stress positive changes happen, so it is believed. Water fast retreats are common in Russia and in Europe and are being seriously studied.

I can find no such retreat in Canada but there are juice fast retreats. It would be safer to have a nurse on duty when water fasting to check your signs every day. Seems like a great vacation week idea. Lose 20 lbs and make your coworkers freak

One thing it does not do is remove toxins. The new age health argument that you need to remove toxins is nonsense.

I agree about vegans as we have evolved into omnivores, so not eating meaat meat seems stupid


You can do a 40 day fast according to this expert! I think Jesus went on a 40 day fast in the desert, did he not? Is that where the 40 day fast came from?
