  4. Water fasting. To do for 14 days or no?

Water fasting

2017-11-07 21:13:00
I want to try water fasting for 14 days but am skeptical on it due to fact that I have heard that your body can start to break down the structural proteins in your vital organs like the cardiac muscle in your heart for energy. Is it safe to do for 14 days or no?
