I've been reading in another forum about some nutter doing this. A quick google shows its not actually that unusual! but there isn't any real info. Does anyone know the purpose behind it? surely your body would consume itself?

    ? and there was a bit about "fresh fruit and vegetables are the only vaccination you need" if they weren't putting the health of others at risk by their loony-dom, it would almost be funny.

    Having read her 'blog', I found it quite interesting in a morbidly fascinating kind of way. She clearly strongly believes that what she is doing will help her in many many ways. Unfortunately the lack of clarity in her writing doesn't make one believe she's not suffering mental ill effects from the fast...

    I also found the 17 year old's story sad. I was relieved that she was advised not to do it. But then, the faster was quite sniffy about anyone not doing it for the perceived 'right' reasons.

    I was also fascinated by the semantics and eat salt or not debates. Who knew that so many people are so evangelical about fasting (or water fasting, if you prefer!)
