I'm a Muslim and I'm fasting. Kirameo said you can drink when you are fasting but this is not true. You can't have food, water or any drink. You can't have anything.

Isn't that dangerous?

Not drinking during the day, (especially in hotter Middle Eastern and African countries) could have some pretty serious effects on your health.

I hate all this "health and safety" overblown crap, but even I think that's pretty dangerous.

Are you 100% sure you can't drink during the day?

I would do it...If it wasn't for all the great games coming out this year.



Why would i be unable to play games for 1 year?

If it's about monetary reason i spent 4 or 5 years being addicted to free MMOs ;)

People seriously overestimate how dangerous not eating is. You wont die and you wont be in agony unable to do anything. First off modern day humans have so many reserves of vitamines and energy in their fat they will last up to half a year with just water before dying. It was never normal to eat daily in the biggest part of human history thats NEW.

And because of statements like beeing in pain not beeing able to do anything etc. He allowed juice juice has Carbohydrates in form of sugar vitamines and a lot of other things. Humans could survive on juice alone for years it wouldnt be pleasent though. But for 10 days (much longer then that) you could still keep up doing what you want you will feel weak at the beginning and slightly depressed because your body misses all those Endorphines it floods the brain with but you will get used to it fast. Its not that your body misses something its like a minor withdrawal. Sure the longer you go the unhealthier and more dangerous it becomes but for under 30 days its quite healthy. (Ofcourse this doesnt apply to sick, pregnant women, old people and kids.)

You are correct not drinking at all is very very unhealthy.

Muslims cant drink or eat during the day but they do after dawn some only drink then. Not drinking for longer then 96 hours means CERTAIN death. There is no way around it. First you go crazy and would literally kill a dozend people to get a drink. After that you have multiorgan failure and you die. Starving to death is slow and your body shuts down one by one. You get fradually weaker until you die. Not drinking drives you crazy and kills you fast.

Have you ever heard of dry fasting? People have gone longer than 96 hours.



i think i can manage 10 foodless days with loads of beers and weeds, so not eating for 10 days.



 

Wow results are not really what I expected lol

YES

Regular fasting and religious/muslim fasting are two different thing
