Doctors, what are the side effects of fasting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hunger pains: Growling stomach, lightheadedness, dizziness, fatigue, dry mouth, rapid heart rate. These are some symptoms in a healthy individual. Some low calorie diets less than 400 calories a day can be safely adhered to because they are nutritionally balanced. Water has no calories and needs to be included in all fasting to prevent dehydration.
