shorter consecutive fasts are not equal to a long fast. i did for months a 60 hour dry fast every week. once i did a 7 day dry fast it was a total different experience. felt my time would’ve been better if i did a long first
Water fasting reaches it’s peak at 5 days and continues healing at that rate everyday onward. I can’t find any scientific data as to what dry fasting does to the body but you can safely assume that 1 day dry fasted = 2 days water fasted.
I’m gonna burst a few bubbles with this but well here goes
Of course even daily 16hrs fasts will heal, but not much, even after years. You’ll be healthy though, but your problems won’t go away. For me, deeper healing starts around 5 days water fasted, but between day 1 and day 5 l don’t really feel like any healing is occurring, and whatever goes away comes back after l refeed. After 5 days though your body really gets going, and it’s the best part. From then on every day spent fasting is a day where your body is deeply healed, you gotta try it out for yourself to really appreciate it. Since your hunger will be completely gone and your energy levels back to normal by that point, you’ll be free to continue a very long time.
You could also go 60 hours dry then switch to a water fast, electrolytes might be a problem so get that covered as you switch over. Best of luck
