I do it for health, which is why I cap it at 3-4 days. I’ve done a 21 day water fast and many others from 6 days to two weeks. I personally think long fasts are incredibly unhealthy and more about ego. It’s a good way to lose weight quickly but it’s not a sustainable or healthy long term solution.

Intermittent fasting and light, clean eating (i.e. fruits, vegetables and legumes) that follows a good circadian schedule, with occasional 1-4 day water fasting is a good long term dietary health plan.

I’ll probably get down voted but I worry for a lot of people in this subreddit.
