This isn't 6 day dry fasting, it's just IF with dry fasting. 6 day means 6X24=144 hours dry fasting.
I don't think very many people do 6 day dry fasts. Even fewer make a video about it.
@@keithw3208 Some people do it. But, according to one of the dry fasting club blogs, a calorie-restrictive diet could be safe over three to five days. Therefore, a three-day dry fast is considered relatively safe
@@Josh-nf4ek very good
@@Josh-nf4ek good luck
@@SharkFishSF thanks! I posted the link on my comment. Should have the video up in a week.
Dry fasting is a lot easier than water fasting in my opinion and based on my personal experience. I have done two 7 day soft dry fasts and one 5 day dry fast and I felt amazing after every one of them. I also had an enlarged lymph node in my neck before my latest dry fast and after 5 days it completely melted away. It was amazing. I think much more study needs to be done on dry fasting and all the health benefits. I will do at least one 5-7 day dry fast at least once a year for the rest of my life.
I couldn't gree more. It makes me feel like I have better control that when water fasting.
I am currently In a study, we're dry fasting for 5 days
❤ thanks for sharing
It is possible to lose 5 kg with dry fasting in 3 days? I have wedding after 4 days
How much weight did you loose during your soft dry fast?
I did 7 day hard dry fast in the natur with seaside and mountains(no touch of water)with 6-8 km walking first 5-6 days.there was a 1 month preparation and with proper guidance for that ofcourse. It was amazing. Being a doctor i am still learning our mysterious body. So give a chance to yourself to any kind of dry fast what suites your Willness.
Please guide me dear, as Muslim I am also doing dry fasting and from evening I only drink water.
Please guide me about pre and post dry fasting requirements/preparation?
How
Much did you loose @Dr. Kp
Wow thanks for sharing 🙏 any more you like to share ❤
The way this man respects human body creation is just speechless
Your title is misleading (welcome to UA-cam) The definition of a dry fast is to abstain from eating and drinking completely. 3 -day dry fast (72 hours no food no water ) is a common dry fast protocol although most people start with the 24 hour dry fast until they build endurance. What you are describing in this video is intermittent fasting.
👍 I am in. Will do it from today. Keep putting up such challenges to improve the health of the masses. Thanks Luke 🙏
I'm on my fifth day of a dry fast. I've had no cravings, hunger, or discomfort. Started feeling some thirst yesterday but in only last for about 30 minutes before it goes away. Mouth feeling dry today. Not sure how long I'll go. Figured I'll do it for as long as I feel comfortable. I should mention this is not my first Dry fast. My longest Dry Fast was 6 days long and only had to break it due to work commitments. Anyhow, just wanted to share my journey! Enjoy your fast!
how long did you end up dry fasting for? I did 6 days once. It was electric.
@@goodson77784 I did 6 days dry then 3 days water before breaking fast. Yes, I agree it is an awesome feeling, with the exception of dry mouth. This is my second 6 day dry fast. I have done many 3-5 days dry fast, but after the 5th day my voice gets really rough and everyone around me get worried, so I have not pushed it past 6 days yet. I feel I could personally, but I will wait till I have a time period all to my self.
@@lorenal6137 how much weight did you loose?
@rakibulislam5661 on this particular cycle I initially lost 10lbs, which includes water weight and gut mass weight, but after refeeding and getting back to normal it was a total loss of 5lbs which I've maintained off.
Hope this helps. Good luck on your journey! 🥰🥰
@@lorenal6137 are you a over weight person or a fit person ??
You should lose more than 10lbs with 6 day dry fast..
I lost 5 kg on 3 day dry fast.
4 days ago. Did a 12 hr dryfast.
Last week I had some gut cramping. I promised myself to fast it away. And it went.
I suffer much from pains and stiffness in my right leg 1 1/2 years now. 😢tried everything in my power Exercise rest PT .
I then decided to this for a week. 12 hrs a day. Dryfast.
The results are unbelievable: my legpain is completely gone since this morning. Only some stiffness resides😊😊Also spiritually a big change. I found my Zen again. 🙏
how is 12 hours not drinking a dry fast?
Hi your telling truth here. I am 56 at 260 lbs. High blood pressure, edema., Allergies, aches, pains, arthritis, migraines. I've tried this before it's much easier than water fasting. I will be doing this again starting now. To get healthy #1, along with weight loss.
I’m on day 6 dry fast feeling great overall. I’ll stop when my body tells me to. My goal is to heal from the inside. Weight loss will be an added benefit 🙏🏾💛
Fifty seconds in: subscribed. I agree with everything you said. Health is not a weight number. It is a way of life. And fasting is a crucial part of a healthy life. I see so many sick people out here who are simply being pumped up with drugs and with no emphasis on nutrition, exercise and fasting. It makes me crazy. These people are dying, when all they needed was the information to help them save their own lives. Not another prescription.
Imagine, if human can survive at least 3 days dry fasting, that means in a year people just need about 100times eat and drink, how much money can we save and this can be the end of world hunger.
🤔😳🤯
Today I’m on day 7 with my 8 days dry fasting and feel not bad at all. That’s first I do for such a long time
😊🙏keep winning.
Praise the lord
@@LukeCoutinho i am on my 3 day water only fast.. could u plz suggest me some magenesium source..so that will not bro by fast.. going to continue for 4 more days
@@jadhavketan5982 Magnesium oil using magnesium flakes applied topically or even in a bath. Can also use Epsom salts in your bath.
you dont drink for 24 hours?or 12 hours as he said?(which isnt 7 days dry fast)
Thankyou. i am up for it,see you next week.
First time dry fasting. Tomorrow morning will be 60 hours, aiming for 72 hours and will break. Hasn't been hard although occasionally a little light headed. Listening to my body. Doing it for spiritual reasons and planning varied water, dry, and IF fasting until Resurrection Sunday (Easter), health and vitality. OMAD for about 6 years. Have dyshidrotic eczema on my foot, lower back pain, and residual arm pain from a previous torn bicep. Hoping to reset my metabolic function as I've noticed my fasting blood sugar and blood pressure slowing creeping up over the years. And, improved liver function and weight loss (mid-section adipose fat from adrenals), and elevated parathyroid. Planning to get blood work done today as a baseline and then again in 4 months. Don't have a scale, but was 180 about 2 weeks ago. Amazingly, my stomach fat has decreased significantly over the last 8 hours!!! No arm pain, and back pain severely lessened from just last night.
How much weight did you loose during your fast?
Have done some prolonged fasting in the past.
This makes sense, I seem to be able to go 14-16 hours dry no problem 8pm or so when I go to bed then drink around midday the next day
😊🙏
Day one- 10 hours dry, plus 2 with water due to early morning workout.
Day two- 12 hours dry no exercise.
Some clarity around morning exercise and dry fasting would be wonderful!!!
Yes
I am too of the same view since I workout for 6 days in a week
It is not dry fasting. It is only intermittent fasting.
keep an open mind! Intermittent dry fasting would be pretty banger
This is 12 hours fast, not a 6 day dry fast. Come on brother
WOW!!!
Thank You Very Much❤
Let’s go I’m trying for 7 day dry fast. Longest I’ve done so far is 2.5 days but no excuses this time. I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired. I’m on day 163 of SR and I’m shooting for a year or until I get married.
What’s SR?
@@aparnaroy8814 Semen Retention
Nice wording with "shooting for a year" haha
2.5 dry needs a strong mindset.
@@SharkFishSFI'm coming up to 72 hours haha
Will start today. 😊
Trzeba/jedną z lepszych rzeczy jest - poscic bez jadła i bez napojow.

A potem 25 a potem 35 a potem 45.
Thanks for sharing and educating us 🙏
😊🙏
What time shall we invest to come to a conclusion that the fasting style ( Dry / Intermitted / Combination ) is working for us or not?
Yes I Am going to Dry fast I did 3days no food no water ok now 7 day I'm IN!🕊🙏🕯😇💯🔥
How much weight have you lost in these 3 days?
Yes, I am in.
@@yaojya I do it for spiritual reasons. I'm always praying &fasting. Hanukkah is on the 18 December.
Are you a Christian?
Yes @@joshinmizutani5528yes Jesus is my blueprint I follow humble to be an overcomer breaking generation curses and to obtain my 👑👑👑👑👑👑 overcomer

Excellent
As a Muslim We fast 30 days from sunrise to sunset every year and it's called Ramadan, today is my 25th day of fasting in Ramadan 😊
Yes I will
I’m in😊
Can’t believe people are here focusing on the title instead of what is actually being delivered… Just watch the video, attempt the ‘challenge’, and implement it into your life. No need to argue over petty little things :)
Most people are afraid. Especially for a healing crisis whichcan be uncomfortable but nessecary to get rid of the dis-ease you had in the first place. This is something most will never understand.
I am in.
I started my fast yesterday evening and broke it this morning.
Does dry fasting for 2-3 days have the same effect as doing it with breaks in between? (For example DF for 24hrs, then drink water, then DF another 24hrs etc vs doing it consecutively?)
I m in👍🏻
So from my understanding u fast from sunset to sunrise (8pm to 8am) and then u eat all day from 8am to 8pm whenever u want??
Ty!!!
I did one in 2019, the first few days of January
1st day was all mindset. the second day I knew that wanting to eat and drink was out of habit. Meditative habits were more dobale.
currently 23hrs into a 48hr dry fast. so they were lying when they said we can’t go 3 days without water? i’ve heard some say they’ve gone a week or 2.
Of course they need people sick how else would they make money
I am currently dry fasting since Thursday night after my last water drink at 8p.m.
Trying to do as many dry fasts as I can
Just going to listen to my body
How much weight did you guys loose during your dry fasts?
Apparently they were coz I'm on day 5 and going strong
I am interested do this from tonight
Im 26 and already at my optimal weight. I do water fast and dry fast for other health benefits other than weight loss. Should i continue doing it?
Is this a night fast? 6pm-6am?
My lower lip cracks when i dry fast and I think its due to dehydration. I cannot bear the pain so had to consume water. Any suggestions to overcome that?
I am currently doing dry fasting while doing alternate day fasting. I dry fast for 36 hours. Then eat, with a drink first. I plan to do this for a couple of months. I also do a 72-hour dry fast each month. Dry fasting is the elixir of life. My skin literally glows. I find it much easier than water fasting.
why is it easier than waterfasting?
@@jignaeri9761 less of the “hunger” feeling.
Im 64 hours into a dry fast. Idk how long Il go. Maybe a whole week.
I’m 24 hours into a 5 day! I’ll extend if I can :)
Excellent
Starting 2 moro 💫💜💞🙏
Awesome¡ I'll try to go for 9 days in a few days
Congratulations
So how many days did you end up dry fasting?
How much weight did you lose?
Please let everyone know to be motivated
Thanks in advance
24yrs of dry fasting ??? So no food in btw
Hi, just wanted to know, if it's right to have 1 litre of water for every 20kg? Please reply
You may flash your electrolytes…. add some salt or quality electrolytes without any artificial sweeteners…Is there any reason you want to drink so much water? I am a tea person… I like to drink very warm water with lime …
Yes
That's right Dhara
Dr Berg mentioned df. So i started without any research im at 48 hr still going
Can I take my daily meds on a dry fast?
I tried dry fasting and got VERY constipated. How do you dry fast and not get constipation? I can't find any information on this problem. The only advice I can find is to drink more water but you can't do that on a dry fast.
That’s interesting to hear. Maybe start some probiotics, and just do water fasting for some time.
I can't be the only person this happens to. @@ms.rivera7898
The first day of dry fasting is a bit rough after that it’s fine
I did now 3 days of full dry fasting and I really liked it but I wanna start drinking water now.
Congratulations
How much weight did you lose after your 3 days of dry fasting please?
Thanks in advance
@@theonerandomguy1 i lost around 4 kgs although i heard you lose 2lbs per day
I fasted for 6 days. First three days were okay. Then my heart started beating with incredible force. I could see my belly shake and felt the bed shaking that I couldn't sleep. Urinated twice a day the most nasty dark piss you could imagine, and flushed twice every time. My mouth was covered in disgusting slime. The pipes connecting my ears to the throat opened. The ambient temperature was normal.
Finished by drinking 2 liters of water, and 1 liter flavored with other stuff and ascorbic acid. I don't have a habit of drinking, but do it when I feel the need.
This was posted in December. How do you have 12 hours of sunlight in December?
🤗🤗
How to combine dry fasting with weight lifting?
Just eat a lot of fruit in the night and morning to stay hydrated throughout the day. -From a Muslim lol
Don't. It exhausts you, especially when dry fasting
@@AiJuice1 have you also tried complete 24 hour dry during Ramadan?
@SharkFish not during Ramadan because it is discouraged by prophet Muhammad because it can impact your worship. (We stand in prayer for hours during the night after fasting)
But I have done 48 hour dry fasts outside of Ramadan and exercised during those fasts without issues.
@@AiJuice1 nice, I have done 36 hours max, but no physical activity.
No offense but this is borderline click baiting because you are not fasting you are intermittent fasting.
I am at my 4 day av integrating fastning. I like it!
Haw long can I continuat?
Till your comfort level.
Bismillah, insyaallah, I'm in
😊🙏
Can I do workouts during these days?
No you will dehydrate yourself really fast and wont make it to the end of your fast
Well
I had ulcerative colitis and GERD
And those who are suffering from it actually know how maddening it becomes when you can’t eat or drink the things you love the most. In my case it was milk. I just love dairy products.
Anyway, all that was stopped because of my miserable condition.
Almost 2.5 years of struggle with various medicines, therapies, Ayurveda, diets, steroids and absolutely no cure.
I would still shit blood.
I had lost almost 20kgs and now I started to look like a junkie.
How did I cure myself?
First 3 months - 1 day of 24 hrs dry fasting
Then no fasting for another 3 months.
Then every month for 3 months - a 2 day dry fast.
Then a break for an year of no fasting at all.
Then tried challenging myself for 3, 4 and 5 day dry fast, every 3 months.
While I’m typing this comment, I’m already past day 5 of my dry fast and aiming for 1 whole week of dry fasting.
And I feel wonderful!
Yes hunger pangs and mild headaches do occur but you tend to ignore those when you see your body heal and become young again.
Oh btw, my GERD and UC was cured by the time I finished my second 3 day dry fast.
So yeah, this thousand years old fad is better than tens of thousands of dollars spent on diets, steroids and therapies.
Try & know it for yourself.
Congratulations Sidhanth
Hope you are doing well on your 7th day dry fast
How much weight have you lost in the last 6 days of dry fasting please?
Thanks in advance
@@theonerandomguy1 Hi there Dale
Thank you so much for your wishes.
So far I have lost close 8.8 kilos.
But this time around, as my body has entered into deeper states of autophagy I did notice some serious changes in the way I think and deal with stress.
I magically seem to have become too strong and resilient. Till day 5 I did have bad hunger & thirst pangs but now neither I am feeling hungry nor thirsty.
Seeing this I’m planning to extend my fasting for another 18-24 hrs to see something different.
I always had acidity issues during dry fasting but this time around I discovered two ways to deal with it.
1. Not swallowing saliva. This is a little daunting because I have to take frequent visits to the washroom to spit.
2. Kapalbhaati and Anulom Vilom breathing exercises. I am doing these 2-3 times a day and after that I do get one strong burp and then no acid reflux at all. It’s hard to believe I know but I’m so happy that I figured out a way to deal with fasting induced acidity and as a consequence I’m having a comfortable fasting streak now.
Also I’m sleeping less, somehow my body has so much energy, especially since past 3 days. 3-4 hours of sleep feels more than enough and I carry on with my day to day chores easily. And now since I have too much time in my hand I am so confused what to do with it 🤣
Side effects
1. Bad breath. Of course because of the ketones
2. Slimey taste in the mouth. Obvious reasons again.
3. Too much of extra time now and don’t know what to do with it. 🤣
My advice-
Take it slowly
Break your own PR by extending not more than 12hrs at a time every alternate month. So for example - this month you fast for 12 hrs. Next 24 hrs or one full day. 2 months after that 36hrs or 1.5 days then after that 48.., 60.., 72.., 84.., 96.., and so on.
And in no time you’ll be 16 again 😅😂😊😊
If u re saying 24hrs dry fast what does it mean do not eat at all or is it after sunset dry fast
Can you workout while dry fasting
It’s not recommended to do heavy weight training, but walking or other light exercise is fine.
Living with hypothyroidism was so hard and painful, but thanks to doctor okouromi treatment using herb’s to get rid of thyroid problems🥰🥰🥰🥰

Please continue your medication.
6 days continuously dry fast to follow
Can under weight also do this
@@anshujanand4350 No
You can put yourself in danger as your body doesn't have any fat stored to feed your body while you're fasting
Hi Luke, can breastfeeding mother do this?
If you are breast feeding a newborn through the night then please don’t do because your body needs a lot water to produce milk for your baby
@@hemlatanaik8006 thanks 😊🙏
The time of breastfeeding is such a short and precious time for both bub and mum. Treasure it, feed your bodies. There is time enough for fasting later, after weaning.
Doing it next month giving GOD 1st fruit 🍑🍓❤, December 2023. New beginnings January 2024.
Does fasting make us weak or lower our immunity when we do a month? I got struck with COVID after 15 days of Ramadan fasting.
The other benefits are immense though. Also, doing it for God or a higher power that you believe in helps a lot.🙂
Thank you Luke, your explanations cover a lot of questions that would come to our mind.
After doing fasting i went and drunk alcohol not something heavy just wine, a bottle i think it was, but i have drink much more in my life without any effects well this time i was sick for three days didnt have strength even to get up from bed to go to bathroom , only two days after i did, never alcohol hit me harder (i dont know though it might have been the wine's problem since the other guy had problem as well , i dont know for the third person who drunk with us)
What other benefits?
Click bait bs outta here 6 days is 144 hrs str8 of no food no water ur doing IF dry fasting which can be done all ur life if ur dedicated I sleep for 8 hrs a day that's dry fasting I wake up don't eat or drink for another 8 hrs boom 16 hr dry fast
Sir when I do fasting then I loose my whieght very fast but I want to gain weight so what should I do? Please reply me🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 for gain weight
My BMI is less than 20 and I do fast but not that often. Unfortunately I am not metabolically fit so I do need restrict the eating time. I just finished 36 hours dry fasting because is very beneficial. Wish you the best.
if you want to gain weight shouldnt you eat like meat, instead of fasting?
This is a 12h fast 😅 6 day dryfast is hard core
Dry fasting messed up my stomach and it was a short one. I wouldnt recommend it.
quack
6 days is nothing...benefits start at +7 days
Proof?
real dry fast or what he said about 12 hours each day?
Don't discourage people. You start getting benefits the moment you complete 24 hours fast.
@@yashh0909 It doesn't even take a whole day to start getting benefits or loosing weight. I did dry fasting few times. I did started to loosing weight around 2-3 kgs in 14-16 hours. Although loosing amount of weights depends on our individual genetic factors. I heard some people can even loose more weight in short times.
@@rakibulislam5661 I agree with you
