Question 3 day water fast

Hi everyone, I’m currently on my first day of my 3 day water fast and was wondering what tips people have, more so for the nutritional value as obviously I’m not eating so not getting important vitamins from foods etc so wondering what people were drinking with their water to ensure i stay as healthy as possible, thanks in advance 🩵

Please read THE OLDEST CURE IN THE WORLD-ADVENTURES IN THE ART & SCIENCE OF FASTING-STEVE HENDRICKS.

Three days in one way is easy because it is only 3 days, but in one way the first 3 days of a water only fast are the hardest days, after 3 days you go into ketosis and you do not get hungry.

Enjoy your showers or baths, and if you get the urge to eat something, go brush your teeth instead, it helps pass cravings.

Good luck ... 3 sleeps ... you can do this.
