    An actual medical doctor is going to be supervising while you only drink water for a week while you have the flu?!?!?!

    Yeah, fasting under medical supervision is something people do.

    Fasting for other things not for the flu dear.

    So, I guess the people who HAVE accomplished water fasting and ended up becoming healthier over it, doesn't count?

    Seems like you made up your mind to do it, so I'm not sure why you even asked.

    After the week is up, let us know how awesome and amazing you feel.
