seth on Nostr: Dry fasting is no food and no water (or any drinks) for however long you can go. ...
Dry fasting is no food and no water (or any drinks) for however long you can go. It’s done in many spiritual practices, typically for 24 hrs, but I am merely exploring it as a means to understand. The value and benefits (of fasting in general) are pretty good for cell regeneration, immunity, aging, and overall well being. I have never done a dry fast and I’m just warming into it to see how my body responds. If you’ve never done fasting, it is probably best to start with a water fast and ease into the time frame you’re comfortable with. I will warn you from my own experience, that too much water (without salt) can flush your kidneys and cause an increase in BP and could be risky. I learned this the hard way on a 4 day fast, I was drinking lots of water and nearly gave myself a stroke and had to do a hospital trip (lol in hindsight).
