Fasting is only drinking water the total water intake without any other substances such as carbohydrates, proteins and others. Gandhi used to do water fasting for 20 to 40 days. Miraculously, despite consuming only water and not get any food intake, Gandhi was able to survive.
"Actually, humans are able to survive only with water. To achieve a state of chronic hunger and cause death, it takes a very long time. I will not be a sudden crash," said dr. Angela C.
