Re: weight gain.

I do know that during a dry fast the body carefully maintains the salt/water balance in the body and I would consider it dangerous to play with that balance myself. And the thing is how do you know how much to add? I think just leave it to your body to take care of. If you're worried about your body prefast then prepare for it as well as you can and ensure you have the good quality reserves in your body that the body will thrive on. I have always erred on the side of caution, though as I've become more experienced I've been more and more trusting in my body. I've also improved my diet considerably so I believe the chances of running out of good reserves before detoxing fully has become a lot slimmer now than it already was.
