    I can't remain 4-5 hours without food. I am food lover. So, foods is my first preference.

    I've fasted for 3 days, and twice for 2 days, and a handful of times for 1 day.

    Some were for religious reasons, some were for "health" reasons. These days I don't really subscribe to those religious reasons anymore, and I'm pretty sure the "health reasons" were just made up. Though I don't really have a difficult time not eating - I just distract myself.

    One week I was extremely busy with school/work and family drama that I had forgotten to eat for two days. Well not forgot I just had no time to myself basically.

    There was another time I was partying pretty hard and pretty much drank for 2 days straight. That time I truly did forget to eat and it was not a good time let me tell you. Glad my binge drinking days are over.

    Maybe 14 hours or so when I was super ill. I wouldn't eat solid foods but I'd drink juices and other drinks to keep up the sustenance.
    The wise wolf who's pride is her wisdom isn't so sharp as drunk.

    3 days when I had my wisdom teeth out. I had a bad reaction to the pain medication I was given to take home. I threw up everything including water. I did eat for atleast three days.

    that's about as healthy as hammering a nail into your skull

    Well yeah, I did say I was 19 and stupid...there was a study that indicated that short term water fasts can be beneficial for cell renewal, hence the "biohacking" articles you read about fasting.

    Personally I think it's silly and the original studies cited by companies that promote this practice have a lot of methodological flaws.
