Does anybody here or has anybody here done fasting as part of their regular schedule? Im not talking about IF but more like 24-72 hours as sort of a detox/reset sort of thing?
I just watched the British Documentary "eat fast, live longer" after reading about it in the IF thread a few posts down, then I started reading about fasting and the benifits of fasting and figured what the hell, I had dinner pretty early (7:00pm) so I decided Ill do a 24 hour water/tea only thing and wont take in any calories until after 7 tomorrow. Ill get my run/kb work in before going to my job and see what happens.
Im interested in eventually doing like a 3 day fast but I think 24 hours is a good start.
Im not really doing this for weight loss but more for health benefits, I didnt get any blood work done before hand so I wont have anything to measure except for how I feel. I want to practice a few 1 day fasts then Ill try for a 3 day fast when summer starts (teacher so no work int he summer), before the 3 day fast, ill get some blood work done then again after the 3 days.
Anybody have any experience? stories? advice?
thanks.
