What If You Drank Only Water for the Rest of Your Life?
Рет қаралды 728,659
Күн бұрынHave you heard of something called water fasting? It's a type of fast that restricts everything except, well, water. Most people only water fast for 72 hours at most, but what if you did this for the rest of your life? You'd be fine, right? Haha, yeah. Not so much. What happens to your stomach without food? What damage will you do to your organs? And how many days can you last?

I believe the world record which occurred a long time ago was somewhere around 280+ days without food drinking only water and i can’t remember the exact days it lasted. To start, the person was very much overweight and they was just loosing weight the entire time as well all that time and lost a hell of a lot of weight and then kept it off. Back in 2019, I myself fasted for 25 days injecting nothing but water and was just fine. I’m not skin and bones, so I also had body weight I found shed which I did to around almost 20 lbs over the three weeks. Everybody is different with their body and if you have excess weight in fat stores to loose, your body will just slowly burn it off slowly over the time your water fasting. So you can water fast much longer than a week.

i tried keto diet before. not same process as drinking water only but you'll get the same effect of ketosis state. although i did lose weight faster than other process of diet, its not really fun to do and you'll definitely have a very bad mood like almost a depression. also after you quit keto and started to eat normally again, you'll easily gain weight again.

i was thinking about doing keto just to lose some "unwanted" weight and to get some other *_health benefits_* temporarily then switch to a diet kinda like in between keto and most other people regular diet. the main issue i have with keto is it's very restrictive. you'd be crossing out so many food on your list. so i'm thinking in the long run a "hybrid keto" or partial keto diet would fit my ideal diet plan.

I work a physical labor job and during the summer, I’d probably consume close to a gallon and a half of water each day I worked, with added electrolytes .. and still feel thirsty because I was sweating and moving so much… however, on my days off, I just sleep most of the day and maybe get through 2-3 bottles of water at most.. I can usually tell when I need more electrolytes when I’ve been drinking regular water all day and I’m still thirsty.. I try to balance it out when I’m drinking that much water in one day.

If you drank too much water You may start experiencing things like confusion, drowsiness, and headaches. If this pressure increases it could cause conditions like hypertension (High Blood Pressure) and bradycardia (Low Heart Rate). Sodium is the electrolyte most affected by overhydration, leading to a condition called hyponatremia and most people die by water intoxication not infections

Most of the people who water fast, myself included, dont just drink plain water. Drinking water without replenishing your electrolytes is a HUGE no no in the water fast community. Electrolyte powders or supplements are essential to a successful water fast, as is a slow re-entry to eating with light things like soups or broths for those of do extend fasts. Personally ive only water fasted no longer than 2wks at a time.

You need to count 0,5 to 1 liters of water every 10 kilos of you weight. 0,5 x every 10 kg is the minimum your body requires, 1 x every 10 kg is the maximum, more than that could make you have a water poisoning. And if you drank more than 5 liters of water in less than 30 minutes, you will die for water poisoning

This is what a water fast is extremely effective for weight loss. How he explains your body shifts from relying on glucose to body fat for energy levels. Once your in this stage you continue to water fast until your happy with your body fat percentage and just introduce food again. If your diet continues the way it was before you will put on the fat again but this is where you need to maintain a healthy diet afterwards. Works a charm and is actually pretty good for your system. Some of the healthiest people in the world.
