>You definitely need sugar and salt, at the very least, every day. I have an extremely hard time believing people who say they go on water fasts for 3 days or more.
I've done at least three 7+ day water fasts (longest was 10 days). And you can definitely go on longer ones too.
You definitely don't need sugar. As for salt, depends on your lifestyle and stress level. I use both distilled and high-mineral water during fasts and drink whatever I feel a craving for in the moment. However, you can definitely go more than 3 days without salt, it's only after the first week where that becomes a concern. It's important not to binge-drink water when you're not thirsty just to fill your stomach.
