Water fasting for obese type 2 is a good way to loose weight and help reverse diabetes. I have been doing 5 day fasts once a month and it's helping to reduce my hba1c numbers. My diabetes nurse got in touch with hospital experts abt me taking meds and they said cut out gliclazide but stay on the rest. I have no negative comments abt fasting. Also using chia seeds when not fasting to help with cholesterol and it's down to 3.5 with 1 simvastatin a day.

Sounds very bad to be honest.
Loads of posts on here about how people have ruined their metabolisms.
Whether you believe it or not is a fair point, but many still claim they need to keep calories in.
Personally, I find I work better on being calorie deficient.
But still ticking over.
