A member asked:

If i drank only water will i go into ketosis for 10 days?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ketosis: Yes you can. I would not recommend drinking only water for 10 days. That would be extremely unhealthy. Your body needs some calories each day so i can't think of any reason to drink only water even for one day.
