I am starting a soft dry fast tomorrow… Any advice on what to do before? Should I drink a lot of water now before starting?
I am not a medical professional of any kind but I have done quite a few water and dry fasts and I am on day 3 of soft dry fast, but this time I did not prepare as I should have. I don’t know how long you plan to try and fast or if this is your 1st time, but these are some general points I usually do.
I did drink lots of water, about 2 liters a day is normal for me, so I wish I drank a little more.
Don’t binge eat….eat nutrient-rich foods even maybe take a multivitamin for a few days before would help with symptoms that will arise. (wish I did better at this).
I would even decrease or take out carb-heavy items, now this I say is more for people who have more weight that could be shed during the fasting time (even if it’s for spiritual reasons and not just weight).
Hope this helps. Good luck!!!
