Hi, One of my fiends at school is doing a ten day fast. I'm alittle worriend about her, I wondered if anyone knows if this will harm her or anything? She said it's very healthy done right but it doesn't sound too healthy 2 me. Any information or links would be great.

I done something like that before (5 not 10) not for dieting tho. It dont kill but make sure she comes off it at the end of 10 days.

10 days wont kill her - but like anne says its sooo bad for the metabolism. Also why is she doing it??? I went thru an anorexic stage at one point (didnt really work - lol) and I used fasting as an excuse to get me started without anyone really saying anything.

it's very dangerous unless she's being supervised by her doctor.it's not healthy- it will slow down her metabolism and make her tired and it's def. not good for her brain...
