Hi everyone. Just joined the board. I’ve decided to take up hard dry fasting via. recommendation by the Snake Diet fella.
Just wanted to know if there’s any tips on how to keep myself clean whilst on a hard dry fast. I have psoriasis and my hair gets really bad if I don’t wash my hair often.
If there is no alternative to this; I would like to know the clear cut differences and advantages between hard dry fasting (no water contact) and soft dry fasting (water contact; but abstinence from water consumption.)
If there’s any other tips you guys feel like I should know; those would be great too.
Thank you.
I personally don’t feel there is a difference between the two. I don’t think showers or brushing your teeth or exposure to rain etc affects the effectiveness of the fast because you’re not ingesting anything (and even if you do it’s an incredibly small amount). I think there’s an argument to be made that exposure to water may make it harder to keep going in terms of temptation to drink something but personally I think that’s the only potential difference and its’s not something I’ve experienced so far.
