I think blood issues are contraindicated to dry fasting. Dr filonov said the blood gets thicker during a dry fast, and it’s what triggers your body to begin producing metabolic water. Proceed with caution!
Might be the oxytocin produced due to water restriction.

NFAT5, a transcription factor that is “measuring” osmotic stress in cells, and thus might be activated by dry fasting, has been the topic of some research linking it with cocaine addiction somehow.
Transcriptomic and genetic studies identify NFAT5 as a candidate gene for cocaine dependence
I just want to say you made my day and year with this.My cousin is struggling with meth addiction, we go months and months without hearing from him.He’s such a bright, wonderful person, he loves deeply and is so intelligent.I’m only a few years older than him, and I remember holding him as a baby and just thinking he was my baby, I want so much for him to be able to heal and live a long and happy life.I know he has to make the choice to get better, but I also won’t give up and have constantly text him telling him how loved he is.I have been researching and trying to find things that will help him heal, I know he’s got to be incredibly depleted, but vitamin replacement alone isn’t enough to help him through this.
Reading your words gives me so much hope, thank you.Thank you for taking such good care of yourself, please keep fighting to get better, we need you so much in our world you have no idea.
If you have any advice for me on how to help anyone with addiction I would greatly appreciate it.
