Many adverse reactions during fasting can be attributed to mineral deficiencies. Since the body is not consuming food, minerals are lost through urine, leading to a depletion of essential minerals.
Immediate Relief with Salt:
If you experience adverse reactions during fasting, a simple remedy is to use sea salt or pink Himalayan salt (avoid refined table salt). You can either dip your finger in the salt and place it under your tongue or dissolve it in water to drink. Sea salt and pink Himalayan salt contain essential minerals like calcium and magnesium.
When to End Fasting:
If symptoms such as dizziness persist, it may be necessary to end the fast and consume food. If discomfort continues or worsens, consult a healthcare professional for advice.
