You can have Seltzer Water but I think after a while you will crave plain ol Water. Unsweetened Herbal Teas will help you over those beginning days and after a while you might even lose youre taste for them. Make sure you get plenty of rest during your first days on a Water Fast giving your Body what it needs to make the transition.

Thank to all responses. I had read somewhere that on a water fast to curb the hunger, they recommended seltzer water or herbal tea. I was just checking with the real experts to make sure it was ok.

no real experts here... just people who have done them. honestly... there are no hard and fast rules for fasting. you just have to find what works for you and then do it.

on a water fast i tend to do water. nothing else. no lemon in my water, nothing. then another time i'll do a water fast and have tea and lemon water.

i just go with what i need to stay on my fast and what my body asks for.

above all... surround yourself with love... (((hugs)))
