Hi, my name is Doctor Kim Makoi. I'm a Holistic Chiropractor from San Francisco and this is
how you do a water fast. A water fast is one of the more difficult types of fast to do.
So, with all fasts, make sure you're feeling good and good health not having any sicknesses
when you decide to undertake the fast. So, to do a water fast basically water is the
only thing you'll be consuming for about three days. You can go as long as ten days but of
course that's more challenging and terms of the amount of water, most people recommend
seven to ten glasses of water a day. A good guideline is actually to take your body weight,
divided it by two, your body weight in pounds divided by two and that's how many ounces
per day you should be looking at so if the average adult weights about a hundred and
forty pounds divided by two that's seventy ounces. Typical water bottle like this one
quart bottle is thirty two ounces. So, a hundred and forty pound adult should get at least
a little more than two of these probably aim for three these a day especially during a
water fast. Also, while you during a water fast make sure not to use distill water because
distill water can actually leach some of the minerals out of your body. So, that's basically
how you do a water fast.
