I am such a huge fan of water fasting. After my 40-day water fasting results, I think you know why! The benefits of water fasting are so numerous that I will not recount them here but if you want to read more about how water fasting can improve your health, change your life, and make you feel like a million bucks… check out my post here!
What Do I Need to Start A Water Fast?
Surprisingly the answer is not “just water” ????
While water fasting is amazing I actually supplement with vitamins and minerals daily to keep the negative effects like leg cramps, dehydration, and nutrient depletion away from me. Below is a list of some of the best things I have for water fasting and a few items I will never fast without again!
If you don’t already have it, make sure you grab my water fasting prep kit below!
My Water fasting Essentials
Keto Chow Fasting Drops
These are specifically designed for those of us that are fasting for a long period of time (3-days or more). I do still drink a bottle a day because its great for supporting a state of ketosis in your body. These took all my leg cramps away and helped me fast for 40 days and stay healthy!
Herbal Teas
These are perfectly fine while fasting. They will not cause you to get out of a keto state and they are great for breaking up the monotony of just wanter and give you something warm… you will need it! Click below to see my three favorite flavors.
Seltzer Water
Again, breaking the monotony of the just water flavor, seltzer water helps to also give you the sensation of feeling full. (which is the best part in my opinion????)
Bone Broth
Now I know what you are thinking, “that’s not water”. You are right, this is a departure from the traditional water fast and I only used this in case of emergency. I drank a little bit of organic bone broth when I didn’t know how to properly get electrolytes (from the drops I mentioned above). Now I use this as a fast braking tool. One warm cup when its time to break the fast and give it 30 minutes to “wake up” your digestive tract!
A Good Water Bottle
This one might be something you already have but I gave myself the reward of getting this awesome bottle after day 7 on my first 40-day fast ever! It’s awesome and has timing markers on It to keep you drinking enough all day! I am obsessed!
