Fasting

[BluEyes]

Do any of you guys have a day once in awhile where you don't eat anything and only drink water?

I do this once a month, and I go all out.

The last saturday of the month I essentially cut out all food(chewing gum excepted) and load up on water/green tea. On top of that, I use some diuretics. the kind that doctors give u before a colon exam, so I'm basically on the sh1tter several times during the day.

I reckon that since my diet is so high in protein(~340g/day), that a day once in awhile to cleanse the digestive system couldn't hurt.

Do you guys do any form of fasting?

Do you guys do any form of fasting?

only as a spiritual discipline or for a fasted blood screening. i'm entirely skeptical of the 'detoxifying' benefits of fasting. seems to me doing that on a high protein diet would simply shift from one sort of stress on the liver & kidneys to a different sort.

I have never done that (water only day), but I try to have one vegetarian day per week. Note that I'm not doing a work out regime.
