Fasting is one of those subjects that never ends. Good thing you're saving so much time cooking and eating and pooping, because there's a lot of reading to do.

I found another story of an endurance event in ketosis. That led me to a Ketosis 101 article, which mentioned the longest supervised fast ever undertaken. Can you guess how long it was? Here's a hint: the subject lost 276 pounds. You know the journal article will be good when it has a reference to the Guinness Book of Records.
