Started a fast after a night of drinking 😅 is there anything I need to be aware of?

Everyone in my family is telling me it's dangerous to start a fast after drinking quite a bit the night before, currently two days in and feel fine.

Answer

If you’re two days in you’re fine. Wouldn’t be my first choice but I have no idea why someone would think that it’s dangerous. Most people don’t know anything about fasting and those of us that do it and study it still misunderstand things all the time.

Answer

What was their reasoning? Any sources? If my family said something like that, I would just brush it off since none of them fasts nor have done any research about it.

If you’re drinking water you should be fine, alcohol does dehydrate you which is my water with electrolytes help out a lot but there’s nothing you should be worried about, especially since you say you’re fine.
