Many ways of dry fasting
Generally, dry fasting is of two types soft dry fast and hard dry fast.
Soft Dry Fast- In a soft dry fast, dieters are allowed to use water to brush their teeth, shower and wash their faces.
Hard Dry Fast- In such a fast, dieters are not allowed to come in contact with water at all.
How does fasting work?
According to reports, it is said that during dry fasting, when the body does not get water, it starts burning fat to generate energy. A lack of water in the body stresses it and it starts using every available source of energy to keep the internal system running. It is also said that dry fasting helps strengthen immunity by removing damaged cells, allowing the body to generate new cells. In addition, frequent fasting can reduce inflammation and promote healthy skin.
Difference between intermittent fasting and dry fasting
You can include zero calorie liquid drinks in your diet during intermittent fasting. Such as water, diluted apple cider vinegar, unsweetened coffee and milk. All these things can be consumed during fasting. On the other hand, in dry fasting, you have to stay away from food and drink during fasting. This is why fast is considered quite dangerous. But some experts associate this type of fast with many health benefits.
