Anyone who is regular to fasting, what is better? Occasional Multiday fasts? Or frequent 24 hour fasts? I’m probably gonna tap out at 30 hours this time, I didn’t eat that much before starting ...

I did a 19 day near-water fast, it was great (electrolytes are key). Yes, slow multi-day reintroduction of food. Lost 25 lbs and holding

I found Dr. Pradip Jamnadas on Diary of a CEO then other talks of his (watch out for the AI generated crap). He talks about keeping the body guessing so it can't get too settled in a routine. Fasting a few times per year is like when our ancestors ran low on food. Now we have to do it intentionally.
First 12/12 fasting for 2-3 weeks then 18/6 for a few before going into prolonged fasting (3d - month). Then come out and eat regular for a while then do it all over.

I found several others to make sure I was getting consistent info, Dr Berg for his way of explaining things without being extreme & finding balance.

Now I'm into adding sardines to the diet but will go back to fasting in a couple months. Decided that the year I turn 50 I need to lose 10 lbs/mo and keep it off.

God speed!

Thanks a lot for the info! That’s a long time! I struggle, I did about 30 hours first ever fast, gonna increase each time I do it, I’m also trying to eat cleaner and drink enough water.
