Hello, I always had a white tongue no matter how long I brush it and it always made me sad. Is it gonna help me if I do 7-days fasting? (I started anyway)
Is this normal? I’ve been taking in about 3-4 grams of salt and my weight doesn’t seem to be moving. I actually feel pretty normal and was wondering if I should keep going? Thanks
By my calculations, only 3.35lb/1.5kg is fat. So about 10 lb is all water weight???
I am planning on doing a 7 day water on Monday, 2/14 to 2/21. Wish me luck guys!

Any recommendations? It’s worth it or should I stick to DF. I’m doing it for health maintenance/prevention

As the title states, what should I expect in this experience? I have no other obligations besides just studying for a standardized test. I imagine studying for extended periods of time would perhaps be too hard on the body.
If you're serious about fasting, feel free to message me. I am looking for a partner who seeks motivation and advice throughout the process. ​ Fast starts on: 08/28/2022- 09/11/2022

I'm working to research the effects of water fasting on viral illness. Does anyone know if there are any sources regarding those who have cured themselves of something like HIV or Hepatitis C via extended water fasting?
Does that mean you get all the health benefits of a 21 day water fast with just a 7 day dry fast? Iknow this question might seem self explanatory
My apologies if its disgusting to speak about this, as such I will do my best to be as clean with my words as possible. A long story short, I woke up this morning and instantly went to the restroom,...
