Is dryfasting dangerous?

Entertainingly, that’s one of the few things about dry fasting that’s been tested. It doesn’t do that. Kidney filtration actually improves with dry fasting, so no AKI. This is because it’s a controlled dehydration, not a sudden accidental one combined with heat injury.

cross out the "dry" part and you've got it
it's anorexia when it negatively impacts your health.
if have any appreciable amount of bodyfat & otherwise receive a complete nutrient profile when you are feeding you're not going to thrash/kill hormones/metabolic rate or become suicidal.
Look up the multiple documented metabolic fact of increased HGh levels during sustained fasting (that would be an element of a faster metabolism, at least fat catabolism if we want to be more accurate which the previous poster wasn't)

fasting is beneficial, especially if you need to lose fat
dryfasting on the other hand.. lets just stop saying dryfasting and ask
>is there a benefit to making myself dehydrated
if you need to lose weight at the consequence of your health for some temporary reason... such as a weigh-in for a boxing match, to look temporarily more shredded on stage, or to not overload the thrusters of your carefully tuned rocketship so that you can escape this doomed planet: maybe
otherwise - no. there is not a benefit to making yourself dehydrated.

>he still drank water though... guess they were smarter back then

who would have ever guessed the cure to obesity was literally: Stop Fucking Eating. ?

you dont get more thirsty the longer you go, just more tired.
my thirst on day 7 was equal to my thirst on day 2
note i had already fasted before this a few times and i dont smoke, drink alcohol or do drugs. i walked 30-60 minutes each day

what is the benefit to being dehydrated though?
You gain the water weight back in a day.
You may look a little bit more cut @ peak dehydration while you're light headed and couldn't fight off a frail meth-head if your life depended on it.

How about eat healthy and exercise so you dont have to starve yourself? Sounds like more fun to me. Keeps the metabolism high, keeps energy high, supports a good mood..

The cultists are convinced that dry fasting increases fat metabolism. I'm actually pro-fasting but dry fasting is fucking retarded.

How the fuck is dryfasting dangerous LMFAO just eat food nigga

I've done 5 weeks of nofood with a few nowater days mixed in. Nowater did not go well. My gums bled a lot and so did my lips. I have scarring on my lower lip now.

If you have body fat you're literally not starving. Fuck you pussy.

Lmao. A real pussy starves themselves because they're afraid to eat vegetables and rice and are struggling with their addiction to bacon grease and burgers.

supposedly the benefits are increased autophagy and decrease in inflammation and conditions that have inflammation as an underlying cause. As far as fat loss goes, it supposedly increases fat loss rate as your body breaks down fat for hydrogen to produce metabolic water (which could be why doesn't get more thirsty on a dry fast)

I'm not advocating any of that or saying it's true-- Just pointing out that most people dry fasting are doing it for therapeutic reasons and/or increase fat loss, not just getting dehydrated to temporarily look more cut.

>Keeps the metabolism high
>keeps energy high
>supports a good mood.
try fasting

Most of the calories when I cook comes from whole wheat and potatoes you fucking bugman. If you have bodyfat to burn you aren't starving.

Why? So my body can break down the proteins in my muscles and organs for glucose? What if I want to go exercise or live my life high energy to get work done? Fat is not a high energy source. It's slow burning. I'd rather burn the fat off slowly while being high powered to live a fun life instead of fasting and laying in bed being a lazy depressed sack of shit that's afraid to eat with elevated stress hormones.

>(fruits, rice, potatoes)
Trying too hard.

the myth of muscle catabolism from fasting came from the Minnesota starvration experiment and the issue came form the protocol
the men were fed tiny portions of starchy foods throughout the day (potatoes & turnips) & the insulin response obstructs fatty acid oxidation and kept them from naturally entering ketosis.
Where are you coming off with this "high energy source" horseshit... remind me again about calories per gram between fat / carbohydrate / protein?
What exactly do you think is the evolutionary purpose of your fat stores in the first place?
If you're so metabolically dysfunctional that you cannot access your own fat stores while remaining active then you especially need to fast.

i lost 2-3kg of fat after regaining all the water

My understanding of dry fasting is that it is NOT for losing weight, but for curing various diseases/HARD detoxing. How I understand it, the dehydration starts to pull water from your cells, and in the process cleans up and removes all the shit your body DOESN'T need. Some people have used this as a cancer treatment, and I've heard there has been some success to it.

That being said, there's mostly no reason to do dry fast. I did it once to try and clear a skin condition. It didn't help enough to do a second session, so I stopped. Water fasting is great though.

I do it every Yom Kippur

Yes, don't be a mudshit

>mudshits dryfasting
they dont even go 1 day without drinking. their fasting month is a fucking joke

Only if you’re a twig with no muscle or fat

He’s obviously doing it for health reasons you mong. He’d look totally different if he had muscle

Luckily fasting has nothing to do with anorexia... I have gained weight and I fast 3 days every week, so shove it up your ass, schlomo

Interested in your definition of eating healthy

No you fucking pussy.

Fasting burns less muscle than eating

/Thread

I did a two day dry fast, never felt so weak.

Not sure what was up with my hunger in the past, but now I’m suddenly finding it easier and more sustainable to just eat one small ass meal a day like 1300 calories of rice and chicken. Give that a try over fasting
