No, I'll just stick to taking care of myself on a regular basis. Thanks.

10 days is a long time. If I had a more significant health problem, then perhaps. I don't think that I could will myself to do it just to relieve mild sinus allergies that I get every once in awhile.

I definitely feel much better when I do a 24 hr fast (about once/month) but have never gone longer than that.

I've talked to a few Bataan Death March survivors, they would fight over that during the ship ride to Japan, whenever anyone had enough fluid in their body to piss

I used to do the master cleanse once a year. Been meaning to start back again.

I have eczema. It’s annoying as hell.

I would absolutely fast for 10 days if it guaranteed I’d be rid of it for ever.

like what "exactly" besides the obvious one of being a fatty? enlighten us all


Cure is a strong word. Any benefits would probably vary according to the individual. There are clearly others in this thread that are much more knowledgeable on fasting than myself.

You think it is healthy to not eat anything with calories at all for 10 days? Seems obvious that kind of fasting is too extreme, but I haven't read studies so maybe I'm wrong.

For 99% of Americans, yes.

Well cursory google research says that it is unsafe for elderly, children/adolescents, those with diabetes, immune system impairments, and a whole other host of medical conditions. So it doesn't appear safe, much less "healthy", for 99% of Americans like you say.

In the 5 minutes of reading I did, there do appear to be advocates for the pure water fasting (i.e., no food/calories at all) for 10 days or longer although the health benefits for going that long are certainly debated among medical professionals.

I don’t get it. Just fricking eat healthy three times a day. Why starve yourself? If I don’t eat for a day I pass out.

No you don't fatass. How would you know anyway? You've never gone more than 4 hours without shoving some greasy bullshite or a sugar filled drink down your gullet.
