| | Water Fasting

Just completed my first 36 hour fast with the help of my son.

He gave me the stomach flu. Highly recommend not doing it this way. I'm just trying to keep myself entertained between vomiting and fever-brraking showers. Anybody got any tips on how to keep calories down, or if headache medicine counts as breaking the fast?

Answer

I’m a fan of fiber supplements (to help with the other end) and eating whatever sounds appealing. And I mean whatever.

If I feel like eating a double fudge shake with a stick of butter and marshmallow fluff on top while I’m sick, I eat it.

The goal is to give the body energy to fight off whatever’s causing the problem.
