- Juice
- vegetable broths
- herbal teas with honey
- 2 to 3 L of water per day

The dangers of an unframed fast
There are many reasons for fasting. Thus, some people practice fasting as part of their religion, so (among other things) to atone for their sins and support the poorest. Others, on the other hand, practice it wrongly in order to lose weight quickly and do not have medical supervision. In this case, serious repercussions can occur . Indeed, many deficiencies appear little by little since the reserves of carbohydrates and proteins are diminished. If the fat mass becomes lighter , it is also the case of the muscular mass, too often forgotten by the fasters.
To draw on the reserves of the body implies that this one, once a normal food recovery, will relaunch its storage of fat to palliate the lack: yoyo effect guaranteed!
