[purplepurpose]

I had really foggy mind couple of weeks, after few day of fasting I got good energy boost and can think more clearer.

Um............ where are you getting the water from?

I filter tap water using 430 $ device I use few years already.

2 questions:

1- Do you work?

2- Is your work a 'job'.

If I fasted for 1 DAY I would fall. Bare in mind I am a 6 foot male with only 175 pounds roughly.

As to water, I drink lots everyday, Beer comes with it.

WHAT THEY DON'T TELL YOU: No acid has a higher pH than water.

I was ill last couple of days, so I took a break from studying. No job, only studying.

If you felt better after you stopped eating and drank only water, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's likely that the food you were eating was slowing you down. Keep up the "water diet" for much longer and the reverse will start to happen. And very likely be worse than when you were eating food, even if that food was doing something to you.

Yep, short-term fasts are good for your brain, and other organs:

It's just going to make you dehydrated to one degree or another. This will likely decrease your performance in workouts. As soon as you drink again you will gain all the weight back.

That's if weight loss was your goal. I don't see how it's a good way to achieve any goal. As LFC said, it's pointless.

The point of short-term water only diet is to divert all energy from costly food digestion that extracts nutrients to let body make full cleanup and repairs.

Ohhhh ok when I read 'water fast' I thought fasting from water. As in no water. So water is more essential than food. But I still wouldn't recommend it.

Like I thought you meant you drank no water and then drank large amounts in your op.

So it helps the body repair itself by eating dead/damaged tissues. Which kind of makes sense. But I wonder if its worth the cost of depriving your body of basic nourishment?
It would have to help an awful lot for this to be the case.
