Guide Water Fasting - The ONLY Legit Starvemaxxing Method

Water Fasting is an incredibly useful tool which can be utilised to look your best, Its safe to say that no matter what we eat, our gut requires a break every now and then, with doctors recommending MOST individuals to water fast at least twice a year.


Rules
No food ○ Only water, tea, coffee ○ Supplement with salt & minerals (mandatory) ○ Not for the Hypoglycaemic ○ Not for insulin dependant diabetics ○ Not for the very lean (sub 10%) ○ No heavy exercise/labour
Drinking teas, coffee, and ZERO beverages are permitted. Supplementing with salt is one of the most important factors when fasting for a long time, as the body requires it for basic electrolyte balance; you are able to drink electrolyte water. While water fasting you are able to go to the gym for the first 2-3 days, however after this you should stick to very basic calisthenics, yoga, and walking, you can smoke cigarettes while water fasting and this will actually help with metabolic turnover as well as fat loss.


Benefits
• Improved Immune Functionality • Damaged tissue repair • Dysfunctional Cell & Pathogen Removal • Reduced Inflammation & Neuroinflammation • Increased Autophagy • Autoimmune Disease Reduction • Improved Gut Flora • Increase DNA Repair • Resets Metabolic Systems & Hormones
Most of these benefits have a direct impact on aesthetics through skin, fat loss, increased health indicators, and internal exfoliation resulting in outward increase of youth indicators.


Timeframe
8-12 Hours
12-24 Hours
24-48 Hours
48-72 Hours
72-96 Hours
Glycogen & Glucose utilisation, Increase in a multitude of hormones including HGH, Ketones from fat utilisation, Regular exercise resulting in maximised hunger levels.​
Glycogen Depletion, Gluconeogenesis, Autoimmune Impact, Increase in AMPK-stimulating Autophagy, Cellular clean up, Decrease in nutrient profile, Decrease in overall Inflammation.​
Increase in BDNF & HGH, Increase in Ketones, Breath MAY start to smell, Increase in Ghrelin, Mitophagy Occurrence, Insulin Reset, Decrease in fatty liver symptoms, Gut rest.​
Autophagy continues, Disease Reversal, Increased immune function, Increase in stem cells aiding in healing.​
Body Resets: Hormonal health, Metabolic health, Immune function, Gut.​

You do not need to water fast for longer than 5 days at a time, there are plenty of videos out there where people water fast for 30 days and whatnot, but those are just to maintain ketosis and are under strict supervision by doctors, most benefits are acquired from the first 5 days.
A good way to water fast long term without risking refeeding syndrome or health risks is to water fast for 3-5 days, eat healthy foods as you normally would for 1-2 days, then fast for another 5 days - this is of course if you're looking to lose fat as quick as possible. Any other form of starvemaxxing is cope. If you're going to starvemaxx at least get some benefit from it.

This is a good tool if you want to do things the natural way, but nowadays there are many medications/drugs you can use to lose weight so I wouldn't rely on this too much, its more of an extra support system to shave off extra fat wherever you can, and really lock in the leanness.



Caution
Try to stick to a ketogenic diet for a small while after water fasting, a high influx of carbs doesn't matter much and you CAN do whatever you want after but its best to start light, portions of food should be limited, you probably won't feel very hungry anyway once you've reached this point. Coming out of the fast consider the following:


• MCT oil • Bone Broth • Vegetable Juice • Feremented Foods • Vegetables (cooked) • Plain Animal proteins • Fruit Juice

Research indicates that during a 5-day water fast, 33% (one-third) of total weight lost is fat mass. For a typical 5-day fast, this translates to a loss of approximately 0.5 to 1.5 lbs of actual body fat, with the majority of the 4-6% total weight reduction being water and glycogen depletion.​
