Hi all!
I am new to fasting and have done a 24 hour fast before no problem (just hungry ya know) and I was wondering if it’s safe to do a 72 hour fast? I think it would be a cool target to try for and a test of my self control. I haven’t done anything over 24h before though and was wondering if anyone had advice beyond supplementing with lots of water and electrolytes?
I do 72’s weekly. Sunday 6pm to Wednesday 6pm.
Magnesium at night will help you get to sleep. I take 200mg but make sure this matches your electrolyte intake, best not to overdo it.
The hardest part is the night times for me. If you struggle with hunger late in the day just know that the next morning you will feel much more normal.
