Starting a water fast, I’m tired of being sick and lethargic, and fat. I’m 5’5, and I’m 180 pounds. I’m turning into my mom (physically) and nothing terrifies me more given she has multiple health issues and just isn’t the body type I’d like to have so young, or ever. I’m 20 years old, and suffer from asthma/acne/no energy/constant allergies/a lot of body fat/depression/anxiety.. List goes on.
Most importantly, I’d like to ask about my asthma. I’m currently sick right now, I have a cold & it’s making my asthma even worse. Would fasting help with this at all? Would taking medication (as needed, like an emergency inhaler or a pill to relieve a tight chest) interfere with the fast? Should I lay off?
My goal is better health, and of course weight loss while regenerating my entire body. I’m worried about the acidosis that occurs in the beginning stages of the water fasting, and also, electrolytes. Do I need to supplement or will my body have the necessary minerals/vitamins in my body fat? I plan on going 30 days. 40 max, I definitely have enough body fat to supply for AWHILE.
What diet would be best for after the fast? I’m 100% being a vegan, but my dilemma is either raw or regular. I want to focus on building muscle after i’m weaned off the fast.. So i assume regular - cooked vegan?
I know it’s a lot, but any answers would be appreciated! Thank you!!!

This is a reply to # 2,400,322Hi 30/40 day water fast. You need to get a foundational understanding of what good nutrition and health are all about. For example. going on a Water Fast may be the worst way to get out of the rut you are in even though it is a powerful healing tool used by many with miracle results. A toxic overweight body can get in trouble with a healing mode as intensive as a water fast. One example of something you can do to begin to move your body and mind in the right direction is to EAT ONE RAW FRUIT OR VEGETABLE AT EVERY MEAL. This will begin to condition your body to the raw whole food idea which is where long term health and healing take place. There is so much more - testing your pH, digestion, blood Sugar etc., to avoid mistakes and going around in circles. I suggest you visit The Perfect Health Foundation website and read it just to get an idea of what this health and natural healing business is all about - you don't have to order anything. GET THE LANDSCAPE IN PLACE so you don't make serious mistakes or go around in circles in search for better health. Right now you don't know the right questions to ask. Study this website and you will know that much. I hope this helps. I am an 80 year old in near perfect health, and when I was 20 I was total ignorant and when 40 totally sick. There is hope for everyone, but you must be willing to learn. Blessings.

This is a reply to # 2,400,322Both posters gave you good advice. Most people look for an overnight magic bulletin to cure themselves. It took you a long time to get where you are today. It will take that long to be healthy and vibrant.
If you decide to fast....
Nothing but water, no supplements, no teeth brushing, chewing gum, teas, etc.
Drink warm filtered water as per thirst.
Rest plenty, your body needs energy to heal.
30-40 day fast is hefty goal. Perhaps you can try short fasts, which I think you done before.
Eating raw vegan diet would be ideal, but you can eat some steamed and baked veggies. No processed junk from packages, which probably made you ill and over weight.
Good wishes.
Archus
