I’m doing this now. I made it 50 hours on this, water and 2 cups of coffee but I had to finally breakdown and eat something. I made myself 4 eggs and I’ll see how I do. I’ve been eating complete trash for a long time so 50 hours for this being my first time is a huge win in my book.

Nearing the end of my first 3-day strictly water fast, and I have terrible eat habits though active. I’ve dropped 10lbs, inflammation has drastically reduced (like I can physically see & feel the change), and I’m grateful I was introduced to this with doctor approval. Everytime I had a lowkey headache I knew I was behind on water consumption. The head trash obsessing about food between 4-7pm was wild, but this taught me I have more mental strength to overcome that. I’m very proud of myself. How often should one do this water only fasting?

very handy to set a timer and drinksip every fifteen minutes, stabalizing blood sugar. very helpful way to fast on this kind of drink.

[@MPM6785ChitChat]

I've done fasting for few years - never more than 2 days and always just water Fasts. I've never liked coke, sodas, bottled drinks etc but lve always made my own drinks. For variety, instead of just Green tea l also use and prefer Redbush. Lemon and lime - also orange so one can use less sweetner etc. As for that - Maple , Date, Agave , clear honey, syrups etc; have all undergone a heat process for extraction. So use Unclarified Organic honey - got accustomed to using less and less over time. Also, for variety l've added fresh mint on occasion, fresh ginger, coffee, etc. I prefer chilled. Also, the above make nice ice lollies or sorbets. If ever l were to do a 3 day fast; the above drink is what l would utilise on the 3rd. Also coffee - l drink organic , black with a little organic honey.

[@moniqueross4216]

I started this fast and I am feeling fine. I will let you know how it ends. I have been on intermitted fast regime, so I believe it has been helpful as well as doing 24 hours fasting to get me to do this 3 days fast program. This is my first time doing this. So, I am moving into the end of my 2nd day. I am impressed this is working as I feel the urge to eat, but not necessary. I started Monday evening and will be ending Thursday evening. I do feel hungry, but once I drink a bit...the urge disappears. And, then on Friday I am going to take a blood test to see my results from my old blood work to evaluate how the reset took effect. Standby.

[@journeywithgod-i3e]

what has worked well for me in the past, to kill hunger pangs, is to eat half a fruit once or twice a day (when you feel you really cant stand not eating anymore) because this nips that hunger signal in the brain. Or, in the same manner, eat half of a fruit or a very small bowl lettuce salad with low carb veggies in it. and don't use more than 3 veggies. its all about keeping your blood sugar and hormones swinging too much. you don't have to just drink water to achieve what he is saying. but, you would have to eat almost nothing. eating like 100 calories a day or so, will achieve similar results, and it helps with the awful mental or emotional cravings one might get when trying to fast.

I am going to send this to my sister for my parents, she can make sure from their doctor if this will be good for them to do, especially my dad. Although I have already done this daily especially in the past with using green tea which is my all time favorite tea to drink hot and cold, lemon, lime and honey but not with maple syrup. I don't drink soda and I haven't brought sugar in years. Very interesting

I am glad you gave this option as I dislike too much water only since it attracts emf’s. Water draws electric to a body when without solid foods. Green tea with citrus and maple syrup is somewhat more safe. Many people die from water overload. Just as too much iron attracts these same fields. One needs to consider this.

Thank you Dr. Sung for this valuable information. I just finished my first 24 hours. I’m hungry but I can mostly ignore it. I may pick up some of the ingredients to make this for the remainder of the fast for more benefits and sustained energy. I’d like to take this to a 5-day but am starting at 3 which I’ve done before. I tend to hold excess heat in my body. My acupuncturist is also an herbalist and to me to get some dandelion leaf, red clover flower, nettles and cleavers to help clear the heat and lymph drainage. I added one part spearmint for flavoring and it’s pretty good but better with a touch of raw honey. It might be good with the lemon and lime and maple too. Would this blend be a sufficient alternative to the green tea? Green tea tends to give me heartburn for some reason if I drink too much.

[@weeleelee5843]

I don't know if this helps but, before injectable insulin was available, doctors with patients on low carb diets would prescribe 15grams of distilled alcohol, daily, to prevent the liver from producing ketones.
