Energy Sources While Fasting
Fasting is a voluntary absence of food.
Your lack of energy while fasting had nothing to do with energy/fuel as we can see the body does a great job in utilising glycogen reserves from the liver and muscles.
The lack of energy, dizziness and nausea experienced while fasting is due to the toxins being released by the body into the bloodstream.
Just look at animals in nature who have a clean vessel like a bear who hibernates and then has to walk 100km for its first meal.
They have no toxins in the bloodstream so can still be active after fasting for long periods of time.
The more detox symptoms you experience the more toxicity, acidity, blockages you have inside the body.
The lymphatic system being the sewage system of the body that for most people is heavily blocked and not allowing for waste to be eliminated properly.
The more you rest during a water fast the more benefits and healing you will experience.
You can't be working or exercising during a water fast.
Complete rest is required and that's the benefit of going to a retreat where it is supervised.
When Beginning a Water fast the body is looking for fuel and not nutrients. It will prioritise the following:
1 - Looks for fuel (glucose) in the digestive tract in the first 8-12 hours.
2 - Once that fuel has run out it then goes to the liver and converts the glycogen stored and breaks it down into glucose. (12-24 hours)
3 - Once the glycogen reserves in the liver have been used the body then looks for the glycogen reserves in the muscles to convert into glucose and use as fuel for our body. A process called gluconeogenisis.
It will only take little bits of the glycogen stores from the muscles to begin with and then it will switch to taking it from fat. (24-48 hours, but this fuel can last a week or so depending on stored supplies)
4 - The body then switches to breaking down fat cells for fuel into "ketones," instead of using glucose.
This is the process of "ketosis."
This begins around day 3 but can take up to a week to fully convert.
We must have 2% body fat to survive so the body will utilise the fat reserves until we are down to 2%.
After this the body then moves from "fasting" into starvation mode and will survive off eating vital tissues etc.
This is an extremely dangerous state and should be avoided at all costs.
That's why it would be highly dangerous for an anorexic or extremely thin person to do a water fast.
