Hi-

during your fast do you only consume water?

Water and electrolytes. Sometimes zero cal vitamin water or Gatorade because they have a good balance of electrolytes. This is not something you want to do cold turkey. I started out with 3 day fasts and acclimated to 5-7 or more day over an 18 month period. Had to step back and break the fast for a day several times due to electrolyte imbalance or other. That is why Dr Longo’s fasting mimicking program is such a plus. Longo’s program can be (and has been) done by pretty much anyone even if they are in poor health or are weakened by chemo or some other issue. If you are starting out with a goal to address a specific health issue it's probably wise to have a physicians supervision . Dr Longo is building a network and support structure to accomplish this.
