I don't trust doctors but have read a lot on the internet and talked to any people who have successfully completed similar Fasts. <BR/><BR/>Hyponatremia usually occurs when too much liquid is ingested at which point you essentially dilute your sodium and electrolyte levels. <BR/><BR/>Part of the reason for the Fast is to elminate addictions that I have to caffeine, crappy food, alchohol, etc. <BR/><BR/>Later,<BR/>BRDInvestment Bikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00854564672646683431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18039514.post-16258882305919267422008-01-16T15:41:00.000-05:002008-01-16T15:41:00.000-05:00PLEASE be careful with your diet/fasting.

In addition to increasing your water intake to make up for the water you're no longer getting from food, make sure you are getting enough <B>sodium and electrolytes</B> or you could be at risk for hyponatremia (which can be fatal).<BR/><BR/>There are 3500 calories in a pound of body fat, so unless you've been running a huge calorie deficit (or taken a HUGE dump) you may be under hydraded.<BR/><BR/>I would consult with a doctor, nutritionist, coach, trainer, etc. I'm not sure if the possible benefits from your fast out weigh the risks involved.Gary Burkholderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00995280001308687537noreply@blogger.com
