So, I've been thinking of doing a fast for a while - for spiritual reasons.
Whereas I would like to fast for maybe three days, I think it might be more realistic for me to just do 24 hours, but I still have some concerns;
practical concerns.
As I have ME/CFS what my body can take is likely different to that of a normal healthy person and to further complicate things I take tablets for sleep (Amitryptaline and Melatonin) and i currently follow Fred's methylation protocol. Im not sure what problems there might be taking this stuff on an empty stomach.
Does anyone have a clue about this? I may need to go see my GP and ask, and If needs be then I will, but I could do without another trip to the doctors surgery, especially as I know I will get the "I dont reccomend it" speech that I seem to get with every visit nowadays. So if anyone has any experience or knowledge in this area, I could really use it.
Thanks
