I’m an experienced faster, and I mix my own snake juice
2L water (1tsp potassium chloride, 1 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp Himalayan rock salt)
I take my magnesium separately as an oral pill at night
Thing is I inadvertently started my recent fast day 1 dry because I left the house without the snake juice and I just rode out the day thinking I was already hydrated from last nights meal.
I noticed I had basically no hunger cravings when I was dry for the day, as soon as I had a glass of water, I started to become hungry in waves as per my normal day 1-3 feeling.
So it got me thinking, I can’t go pure dry because my fast length is 21 days, so I’m wanting to just go dry all day for as long as possible and compress my snake juice consumption window to the smallest possible time in the AM or the PM.
What’s other peoples experience with something like this? What’s the smallest period over which you can consume 2L snake juice in without blowing your ass out?
PS, what do you guys think about doing this consumption window in the AM or the PM?
Most likely PM for me as I need water to swallow my magnesium pill, but I also like a cup of hot black tea or coffee in the meaning, and I obviously can’t have both.
Stay shredded everybody
it already sounds like your salts are low enough to chug it.
cole had a video about this. i would have to look for it.
you could do it differently instead. just intermittent dry fast.
if we tend to hold 5 lbs plus of water weight a day, just stay at a water deficit each day. this would allow you to sip the snake juice through the day or just drink it all in an hour or so at night.
I’m not sure how much the 2L weighs but this is one way you can approach it.
I feel you on the dry fasting. I have had this same question. I like to dry fast to get myself into quick ketosis and then start snaking, but dry fasting feels so good that I’ve wondered if it was okay for the body to just chug salts for a small period of the day only
