Have you ever tried a 5-day water fast? According to Dr. Jockers, it’s a pretty incredible endeavor. And in today’s episode, our favorite functional nutritionist is advising us on what we can expect on our H2O healing journey!
Are you a suitable candidate for a 5-day water fast (because not everybody is)? And what exactly happens on each day of the fast? And how should you break the fast after the fifth day? What sort of schedule should you adhere to when undergoing a 5-day fast and how often should you be doing it?
Dr. Jockers is giving us the answers to these questions – and more – as he looks at fasting strategies, supplements, and the details of different body types and physiology as it applies to fasting.
As can be expected, Dr. Jockers covers all the angles for us in this enlightening episode that will make a 5-day water fast seem a lot less daunting to do once you’ve listened to the show. Please join us!
“I really think a water fast is one of the most powerful healing strategies that you can apply”
