Only negative side effects I've heard for fasts over 24 hours is it disrupts your sleep cycle.


It affects your sleep cycle because you will wake up after 4hrs of sleeping and feel completely rested. I’ve done a 14 day water only fast and the mental clarity and energy it provided was almost spiritual.

Is it possible that it felt spiritual because you were so close to death?

watch the documentary "The Science of Fasting" it was a very cheaply made doc but really the science behind it is rather logical.

we evolved as hunter gathers and didnt have access to food all day every day. we routine ate one meal a week or 2 weeks when we would kill prey.
