Here is a list of electrolytes and supplements that are important to consider during an extended water fast as well as the corresponding Amazon USA and Amazon Canada links if you want to order them!
Most of these on the list are optional, however I would 100% advise you to purchase Himalayan salt from here or from your local grocery store in order to help with the sodium levels being depleted during the water fast and to help with possible dizziness and lightheadedness! Everything else is pretty optional, but keep reading so you know which supplements to take for which symptoms!
Sodium (Pink Himalayan Salt)
- Prevent Muscle Cramps, Lightheadedness, Headaches, and replenishes depleted sodium levels.
- Pink Himalayan Salt is better than regular table salt. It contains less sodium than table salt, however it contains more of the key electrolytes you need during your fast such as calcium, potassium, magnesium and iron).
*I like to take ¼ to ½ tsp and sprinkle it in a glass of water and drink it to help with headaches/low energy. (Make sure you don’t take TOO much salt or you will be in the washroom with an accidental SALT FLUSH)

- Take at night, will make you sleep well — Helps with sleep, stress, muscle spasms, leg cramps, headaches
