Fasting?
Just water?
if you really wanna ascend you should jerk off now.
Have done that before. Lots of mental clarity. Keep your salts up though. Very important.
cool! I just started getting back into fasting and will be playing around with dry fasting soon. It's supposed to speed up autophagy and some folks find it easier than water fasting.
Whenever I get past 24 hr I get a massive headache, maybe need the gatorades without calories
water, electrolytes, and black coffee
yes
i’ve done 24 hour dry fast. i did not enjoy it nearly as much as a longer fast with water, electrolytes, and coffee
Can’t today. Just sat down for all you can eat sushi 🍣🍣🍣
Hands down the best thing you can do for mind, body, spirit 🙌
72hrs is my sweet spot.
After that I start getting obsessed about breaking.
What’s your go to brand for electrolytes?
What benefits are you experiencing?
I assume you informed yourself about fasting before?
(Quite a few people think fasting is just stopping food for however long.)
The body needs cleansing and slowly adjusting into fasting.
A week to max10 days should be fine for a healthy person.
Then a recognised and slow return to normal diet.
Everything else can do more harm than good.
Its been a while I don't do it. It does feel good. The meal afterwards its extraordinary.lol
1 a day meals is about the best I've been comfortable with. I think probably dangerous to go over 24 with the physical labor i do for work
Well done! There's more than one reason fasting is in all the old spiritual texts
@jack mallers highly recommend you check out Don Layman’s work on protein in conjunction with fasting. I know you’re on top of it, but good literature.
You are already built like a drovers dog - all cock and ribs!
You’ll fade away to a shadow! @jack mallers

It’s a Superpower. So much time added to the day when you purposefully forget about eating.
100%
in fact, my outlook on eating is so different now. pretty crazy
Autophagy, stem cell production, ketosis. Lfg!! I have to do a 100hr one here again soon!
You should try a 100 mile run.
I'm sure it's individual! I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but if I were I think dry fasting would not be much fun.
If I try it, I'll post about it on Nostr.
Impressive Jack, now I must do a fast this summer as well🍯🦡 thanks for the inspiration
I do 72 hours twice a year. Getting ready for the next one in two weeks. Cheers Jack!
For sure! A 100 mile run sounds wild, but I'm totally down to give it a shot! Let’s get those miles in! 🏃♂️💨 #ChallengeAccepted
go team ✌
Start slow when reintroducing solids. I did a week once due to enteritis.... tough lesson to learn.
I'm on hour 62 out of 72hrs of my very first fast :) . Hardest was the 2nd dinner time, yet will make it to 72 🤘
Gonna start trying to do periodic fasting. I want to reduce or get completely off medication for type 2 diabetes. I really like eating so this is going to take some discipline. Not over weight. Just do alot of physical work and get hungry. Thanks for the motivation. Maybe the orange pill is the only one I need.

nice. first one is a big effort 🫡
powerful
careful. your body might suffer, but it will tell you, that you are doing fine, so that you can keep going (e.g. finding food).
Same applies for near death experience.
think about it and stay healthy. we need you.
Fasting is fantastic, for energy, detox, clearer mind even
Respect. The body resets, but the mindset upgrades. Keep going, you're motivating many.🚀
Yuuuup. Def do 100+
Why fast?
hope you get more focussed on bitcoin than the other stuff
Remember start small and light when eating again. Your gut is powered off.
Don't go to hard, if not used to... It's more about feeling you body than actual hours.
Body actually requests 1ml per kcal, when fasting it will requests significantly less because it doesn't need water to digest.
However is summer, you are losing more liquids.. I cannot do a fast with 0.5 L water a day.. but when cold outside that's the normal body requirement.( Or even less)
Fasting is so much easier while drinking lots of plasma (water with added unrefined sea salt).
It helps the body with the cleansing.
Look for Darko Velcek on youtube or bitchute.
I found that in the beginning of my fast, I had a taste for salt, but several days in, I didn't want salt anymore
i just came up short of it. i think because i have a fatty liver, i was very warm and quite wobbly. ended up eating way too much food and that went straight through like 3 hours all gone.
i'm also going to target a 72h every month beginning of the month from now on.
first time i did 3 days the benefits were intense. this time, idk, something i'm eating didn't help, i am suspecting UHT milk
I never felt sharper on the tennis court than during a 72 hour fast. Plenty of energy, perfect focus. Highly recommended.

Did a 48 hr once. I had a hard time with it. Heard the 24-48 is the hardest however
Awesome! 72 is the hardest. If you can do that, 96 and 120 are easy in comparison. #fasting
100 %
The bodies preference is to not eat itself. Think about it.
First 24 hours is always the hardest for me.
I’ve done a 7 day and there were significant benefits physically and spiritually 🫡
but the gainz.... gl I feel like id get too manic but only done 23 before
gfy
How did you deal with the stomach pains, headaches and general discomfort?
Did you incorporate fats? kinda like a keto thing?
Did you take activated charcoal, or some other binding agent to help with detoxing all the nasties that get dumped in your bloodstream?
Do elaborate.
For spiritual or physical reasons?
Wow you don't look 72 years old at all!
I used to do 5 Days Every 2 months
I got a lot of time back from considering planning preparation and eating of food anyway cleaning up after
if your metabolism is using fat for energy, there are no headaches or hunger - you might feel a little hungry for a few minutes but it just goes away...most Ive done is 48 hr but my next goal is 72
Here's my latest Paper;-
"Zerofield — Zero Distance, Zero Time, Zero Memory and Zero Light Mass"
The Entire Structure of the Universe & Eternity
This Paper provides Proofs directly from my models structure.
This theory is able to construct ‘Constants’ from the structure of the theory and show that they can be calculated from first principles and are indeed not constant. As such, this theory, from its structure alone, provides its own proofs that loop back as proof of the reality from and of the structure itself.
For example c the Speed of Light Constant and h Planck's Constant are calculated directly from the structure of this theory and are shown to NOT be constant at all. Those are just a few of the delicious delights waiting inside.
Enjoy.

After experimenting with fasting off and on for years, I don't do over 36 hours anymore. Somewhere between there and 48 hours I get cold.
If you got cold, your thyroid hormones started going nuts. This is the "starvation mode" where your metabolism slows drastically. Dead slow metabolism is not good for you and is why many dieters struggle with yoyoing weight and every diet getting harder to see results.
You'll do better for your long term health to refeed and then start a new 36 hour fast.
The long numbers for fast times are just like any other health fad. Fasting is good and a few influencers pick it up and start shilling it for views. Then everyone has to escalate to stay on top of the view charts so the easy escalation is to promote longer and longer fasts.
But what do I know? I'm just a martial artist who noticed that even though I felt great sitting around at 84 hours past 36 hours I start getting my ass kicked by people I usually beat easily. So I started digging more into the science. Turns out an endorphin dump isn't always good. Performance is a better measure than sensation. Remember that people feel warm right before they freeze to death. They feel so warm that people who froze to death are often found naked.
Congratulations
I love fasting
My girl is really big on fasting.
Also it helps to start new growth and regeneration
