So many people are concerned about muscle loss on a dry fast that these type of questions get asked pretty frequently. It's sort of a human condition to want to have it all, so that even when you are undergoing something as drastic as a dry fast for your health, you're still looking at ways to have your cake and eat it too. In this case people really worry about maintaining their gains. It's understandable, to a certain degree. I'll try to answer the questions as best as possible and guide you in a way that will allow you to make your own decisions on how much you will take muscle preservation into consideration during your next dry fast. However, I will ask one thing of you. Please remember why you are here, and that dry fasting is dangerous if done incorrectly and aggressively. Sometimes that means sitting back and letting the healing forces of your body do what they do best.

Does dry fasting lead to significant muscle loss?

When compared to water fasting, dry fasting loses much less muscle. During a water fast you can expect approximately a 50-50 split on muscle and fat loss. On a dry fast, you can expect something like 25-75 muscle and fat loss. That is a massive difference. Especially when you take into consideration that a dry fast takes much less time to achieve similar and better results than a much longer water fast. The simplified way of looking at it is that one day of dry fasting is equal to three days of water fasting. It's worth noting that the extent of muscle loss during a fast can be influenced by several factors, including the individual's starting body composition, the total duration of the fast, and any physical activity undertaken during the fast. Moreover, the body adapts to fasting by increasing its use of fat as a primary energy source, thereby sparing muscle protein
