I get low blood pressure so depriving myself of nutrients is not advisable. I know a few who combined fasting with a plastic body wrap to induce weight loss. Not for me, I also enjoyed a big lunch at work whilst my Muslim colleagues were on a fast. 

Not only fasting but religions who dictate what you should eat/drink ffs. I like pork and alcohol same as everyone else. Only a citizen of the pampered affluent west would consider voluntarily going without food.



What a stupid thing to do.



I am not including those fasts as part of religious observation here, that is another kettle of lunacy altogether.
