I have been eating only one meal per day deliberately for many years. I have fasted for up to 4 days. I seldom fast for more than one day.

When I was doing keto, I never experienced the keto flu that many complain about. If these are the same symptoms, maybe the same benefits are achieved without taking the drug.
