Awesome. You should be able to do that no problem. Just make sure you're supplementing plenty of sodium, potassium and magnesium.
> The emotional benefits are almost bigger. After 3 days without food my mind stops racing and my anxiety melts away. It feels like zen no-mind, and much stronger than I've been able to achieve by meditating.
This was my experience as well. Somewhere between day 7 and day 10 everything just got easier.
- zemvpferreira 8y agoThat's really good to hear. How was your libido through the 60 days? Mine pretty much goes away by day 3. That's been the thing preventing me from going longer, girlfriends don't take kindly to the lack of action between the sheets. On electrolytes, last time I fasted for 5 days I only drank Snake Juice (salts dissolved in water taken through the day) and it did wonders for me. The guy promoting it is more than a little on the wacko side, but he hit the nail on the head with that recipe.
