Everyone assumes that if you stop drinking water, your body immediately starts drying out. It doesn't. The second you stop taking in external water, your body flips a switch and starts manufacturing its own — from fat, from glycogen, from stored tissue water that's been trapped in inflammation for years.
By Day 3 of a dry fast, your body is producing around 650 mL of pure, deuterium-depleted water every single day — entirely from internal sources.
In this video I break down every source:
— How fat oxidation produces 420 mL of metabolic water per day (65% of supply)
— Why glycogen releases 3–4 grams of bound water for every gram burned
— How your kidneys lock down — urine output drops 79%, sodium retention up 87%
— The osmotic pull that drains edema, bloat, and organ congestion into usable water
— Why ADH (vasopressin) spikes 191% and aldosterone spikes 90% — the water conservation hormones
— Why internal metabolic water is higher quality than anything you can drink
— The safety math: 650 mL produced vs 740 mL lost = only mild deficit at Day 3
This is why dry fasting is safer than it sounds — and why multi-day fasts can sustain themselves far longer than most people realise.
