water fast
Drinking, not eating
A water fast is a period of fasting during which a person consumes only water—no food and no other beverages.
People undertake water fasts for various reasons: religious observance, perceived health benefits, or medical preparation.
The practice ranges from a day to several weeks, though extended water fasts carry significant health risks.
