You also will get cramps and muscle spasms if you don't supplement Natrium, Potassium, Magnesium. Also for me the hunger returned on day 3 and got so bad I had to stop the water fast at day 5 because it was driving me insane.

Now I just skip breakfast and have on some days only "light meals". Easier and more sustainable long time.

By the end of my post it reveals a facetious tone, but I'm glad you engaged it as though it were sincere anyway. This electrolyte supplementation (sodium aka natrium, potassium, and magnesium) is exactly what I do whenever I choose (of my own free will and not coerced by capitalistic abuse) to forego food for a few days. I most recently went 96 hours to challenge myself but I usually only do 72. I was doing 72 hours water fasting with electrolyte and micronutrient supplements every week since August and I in fact kinda just fell into it by accident and it stuck due to how easy it was and how good it felt.
