Tingling in hands and arms

44hrs into my fast I started feeling tingles in my hands and arms. I was studying and it was getting difficult to use my hands to type. I immediately broke it because I was scared. Anyone else had this feeling? What causes it and what can I do to make sure it doesn’t happen again?

Answer

Could be your heart.

I once went on a crash diet back in my twenties and I could see my heart pounding in my chest whilst at rest. Fasting for extended periods places a lot of strain on your heart. I’d recommend getting a thorough check-up and medical advice before attempting to fast for longer than 24 hours.
