 Believe, by dry fasting, you mean, no food and no water? Many Indians do dry fasting during the current #Navratri time in the month of October. Do agree with fasting but not dry, just completed a 1-day water-only fast this morning. Hoping to do it once a week 🤞  
 dry fasting i.e Nirjada enhance autophagy. one day dry fast is effective as 3 days water fast. u can go to 24 hours water fasting by increasing 2 hours  in each attempt. don't drink water when u wake up till 2 pm, then 4 pm, till 6pm in 3rd attempt so on
 
 Haven't tried fasting without water yet. Many elders in my family do it though. Need more evidence to pursue. 😅 Soon planning a 3-4 day water-only fast this quarter.
