That paper is fascinating. But I wonder how his mental and cognitive states were during the fast?

Also 37-48 days between bowel movements O_O



If you don’t eat any fiber, there’s really nothing happening in your bowels. I’ve been on a mainly liquid diet at times this year with tiny bowel movements about once a week, just because there is nothing being put in there. I haven’t experienced any apparent problems related to that.

Mental and cognitive states while slowly starving: not that good
