Fasting, water or dry, has been quite beneficial for me. Nothing longer than 48 hours yet.

- c1b 7y agoIs there a benefit to dry fasting? I’ve never even considered it
- lymeeducator 7y agoIt helps draw more toxins out as the fat is metabolized. Trying to increase glutathione levels is helpful for removing toxins from the body. There are a number of tests like the Ion Panel Test and Mycotoxin tests that require preparation like this to identify metal and mold levels. Generally dry fasting 12 - 16 hours is a good start. Muslims do this during Ramadan and have for a long time. While lacking a microscopic perspective, I suspect that most of them feel better.
- skosch 7y agoFasting has lots of well-documented benefits, but your claim sounds pseudoscientific. A water-fasting proponent would probably encourage us to drink water to "flush out toxins". What toxins, exactly, are being "drawn out" here? And if it's true: is drawing lots of toxins out of fat cells into blood and surrounding tissue a good thing? I'd love to see some sources.
