This fasting involves consuming only water for a set period. It’s practiced for potential health benefits, including detoxification and improved mental clarity.
Water fasting can enhance autophagy, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce inflammation. It may also aid in weight loss and promote longevity.
Consult a healthcare professional before starting. Not suitable for pregnant women, individuals with certain medical conditions, or those on specific medications.
Gradually reduce food intake a few days before starting. Stay hydrated, and choose a period when you can rest and avoid strenuous activities.
Drink plenty of water, rest often, and avoid intense physical exertion. Listen to your body; stop fasting if you feel dizzy, weak, or unwell.
Reintroduce food slowly, starting with small portions of fruits and vegetables. Avoid overeating and choose nutrient-dense foods to ease your digestive system back.
