Supervised Water Fasting Is Safe And Effective

Water fasting can be done from one day to forty or more days. Periods longer than two days should be supervised by a professional with knowledge and experience. 

In my own experience, I've usually felt weaker during a such a fast. However, there were periods of feeling wonderful. And there were days of tremendous energy and productivity. The trick is going back to solid food in the correct way. Your supervisor can guide you.

My longest fast has been ten days. A friend of mine, Jim Horan, has done multiple such fasts. His opinion is that you're not doing a real fast unless you're fasting for at least ten days on water only. He says that you spend most of the time in bed or feeling bored. That certainly was my experience.

I was weak throughout most of the fast. However there was one day where I had a tremendous amount of inspiration and was very productive in my software development work. This is when I made the most significant breakthrough in my Report Blaster software.

You might know that Paul Bragg was one of the strongest endorsers of this type of fasting. Paul's daughter is carrying on his work.

Jack LeLaine, the fitness guru, is one of Paul's students. Jack celebrated his 70th birthday by swimming and towing 70 boats pulled by a rope in his teeth. I'm impressed!
