I have been doing ADF For (on and off) about a year. I have lost 50 lbs but am stuck with 20 more to go. I was wondering if being more "clean" on the fasting would do anything. For instance right...
For probably a couple years, I’ve been taking OTC Omeprazole. Well I ran out on Monday and honestly kept forgetting to go get some more. But I haven’t had any reflux or heartburn since then. Yay for healthy living!
Or is it not necessary? Planning on doing a 10 day dry fast. I’ve heard that you should prepare before a fast by eliminating any waste so that the body doesn’t use any of it. Any foods to eat leading...

Forgive me but i just want to make sure.
Ignoring that one may be easier than the other (all dependent on personal preference), is there a benefit to one slightly longer fast over 3 ‘medium’ fasts? (Or vice versa)
I was using Zero, but it got all buggy on me. So instead of just reinstalling it after uninstalling, I’d figure I would check out something new. Any tips?
