A Little Salty

Hey all!

I’m on day 12 of my 21 day water fast. Feeling pretty good so far. Only one question, I started taking pink salt a few days ago (day 10) because most threads say you’ll basically die lol. I haven’t really felt any benefits but instead feel a little bloated and actually gained a pound yesterday (I’ve been losing a steady 1.5 pounds a day since the start).

Anyways, thoughts?

I’ve been taking 1 teaspoon in the morning and at night.

Answer

All I can think of is that salt causes water reabsorption at the kidneys, which is why you are retaining that water wt. It’s fine, you’ll flush it out keep drinking that water

Edit: on Day 4, going on Day 5. Keep Killing it.
