hat Is a 72-Hour Water Fast?
A 72-hour water fast means no food, no caloric drinks—just water—for three full days. Some people also include unsweetened black coffee or green tea for variety. The goal is to give your body a deep reset: detox, cellular repair, and mental clarity.
Before the Fast
2–3 days prior: Eat light, whole foods (fruits, veggies, healthy fats)
Avoid: Processed foods, sugar, alcohol
Optional: Gradually reduce meal frequency (e.g., intermittent fasting)
During the Fast
Hydrate: Drink 2–3 liters of water daily
Rest: Conserve energy, avoid strenuous activity
Listen to your body: Dizziness or extreme fatigue may mean it’s time to stop
Optional: Herbal teas, black coffee (no sweeteners)
After the Fast (Refeed)
Start slow: Bone broth, steamed veggies, light proteins
Avoid: Heavy, greasy, or sugary foods
Reintroduce gradually: Over 1–2 days to avoid digestive shock
Risks & Considerations
Not for everyone: Avoid if pregnant, diabetic, or with medical conditions
Electrolyte imbalance: Can occur without proper hydration
Mental strain: Mood swings, fatigue, or brain fog may appear
