Any tips on preparation. Have done many 72 hours even cascade fasting routine. First 7 days. Any tips on preparation. I keep seeing mentions of emptying bowel prior. Is that even possible?
I used a couple tablespoons of salt in a big glass of warm water to induce…. horrific diarrhea. Drink a few more glasses of warm water to abate the thirst you feel from the salt. Don’t make any plans for the next 4 hours.
For a long fast, I think it helps. Your colon draws water out from itself. If you have poop in there it can get dried out, and become impacted if it gets too dry.
I’ve only done the salt water flush 2 or 3 times. I think it’s pretty hard on the body; and it isn’t fun.
Dry fasting already crushes hunger, so I wouldn’t do it for that reason.
If you get constipated at the end of a fast, you couls always induce diarrhea at that point to get “it” out.
empty bowels with aloe vera or mango or turmeric or prunes. you’ll notice during a fast anxiety tremendously increases when you gotta poo, the less bathroom material sitting in you the easier mindset you’ll have
Left food in there, thinking my body will use the nutrients in intestines throughout the fast, also it dehydrates quicker if i flush out foods, but I used to clean out before water fasts, so its time to do another after 3 weeks of 4, 6, and 3 half soft half dry, thanks, just need one more multi-day to get love handles finally gone, they are almost gone, im skinny but will build back up without the layer of fat.
