A 3-day water fast is a type of fasting where you consume nothing but water for 72 hours.
It's a more extended fast compared to the common 24-hour fasts and is usually done for potential health benefits like weight loss, improved insulin sensitivity, or autophagy (a cellular process where the body cleans out damaged cells).
Duration: 3 days (72 hours)
Consumption: Only water with unflavored electrolytes. We consumed around a gallon a day.
Preparation: It's recommended to gradually reduce food intake in the days leading up to the fast.
Breaking the fast: It's important to ease back into eating with light, easily digestible foods like bone broth.
Risks: It's crucial to consult a healthcare professional before attempting a 3-day water fast, especially if you have any underlying health conditions. Potential risks include dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and low blood sugar. Water fasting is not suitable for everyone. Always prioritize your health and safety, and seek professional guidance if you're considering this practice.
