Also a friend of mine who fasts said to get over the first day to 4 days you can ingest some coconut oil to combat the extreme hunger. Is this true?
You don't need to consume anything while you're fasting, or it isn't a fast.
If you feel hunger pangs do EFT. Your mind will help you get past them.
Watch this video and imagine the problem being hunger.
In fact you can start out days before you start your fast by tapping that you intend to go on a fast to prepare your mind for the fast.
Body and mind are one.
Drink distilled water.
Good luck.

Other studies indicate that hibiscus tea may lower cholesterol levels in people with metabolic syndrome or diabetes.
In a study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine in 2009, researchers found that hibiscus tea could significantly reduce LDL cholesterol and total cholesterol, and raise high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in 53 type 2 diabetics.
Another study from 2009 found that daily hibiscus tea consumption could reduce blood pressure in type 2 diabetics.
The antioxidant properties of hibiscus tea may also help treat liver disease. In a study published in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology in 2000, researchers found that the anthocyannins in hibiscus tea could significantly reduce inflammatory liver lesions and oxidative liver damage in rats with toxic livers.
The hibiscus protocatechuic acid found in hibiscus tea has strong antioxidant and anti-tumor properties.
In a study published in the journal Biochemical Pharmacology in 2000, researchers from the Department and Institute of Biochemistry at the Chung Shan Medical and Dental College in Taichung, Taiwan suggested that the protocatechuic acid in hibiscus tea inhibits cancer cell growth by inducing cell death in human leukemia cells.
Hibiscus tea health benefits also include calming the nervous system. This helps put people into a positive mind frame to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Another study from 2012 found that other hibiscus species can help reduce depression in mice.
Hibiscus tea may also be a useful component to a weight loss program. Hibiscus tea is low-in-calories, and it is a diuretic herb that helps flush toxins and excess fluids in the body. In a 12-week study published in the journal Food & Function in 2014, researchers found that hibiscus extract consumption could reduce obesity and abdominal fat, and improve liver damage in obese individuals. Research published in the journal Medical Hypotheses in 2002 also suggests that hibiscus tea may be a natural weight loss alternative. Furthermore, a 2010 review suggests that herbal teas like hibiscus tea can help support weight loss by increasing the intake of fluids.
Hibiscus tea is also considered a valuable digestive aid, and it is thought to improve bowel and bladder function.
