Hi Mark, thank you for reading and providing feedback. I understand your reluctance on water fasting.
I wouldn't mention it if was insignificant. I have been methodically researching and practicing it for decades for physical and mental health.
Fasting is the oldest health improvment protocol in human history.
If you have time, you might review these five articles that I documented the valuabe of fasting from different angles.
It is not a recommendation but to give perspectives as you might be missing something invaluable in life.
I wish you the best in your health and fitness journy.
