Jimmy Bartel has been observing a 72-hour water fast, and the football great explains why he follows the extreme diet.
Water fasting is the practice of not eating any food and drinking only water for a set period of time, usually between 24 and 72 hours.
Experts say water fasting may offer several health benefits, including promoting autophagy (the process of breaking down cells), lowering blood pressure, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
“So you only have water for 72 hours,” Bartel explained on 3AW Melbourne.
‘It’s about getting into a state of ketosis and things like that. Clean all your cells and stuff like that.
