Dana White unveils remarkable transformation after 86-hour water fast

Commencing the fast immediately after the conclusion of UFC 295 on November 11, White completed the intensive regimen on November 15, unveiling the drastic changes through impressive before-and-after shots. Describing his experience, he posted on social media, "I did an 86-hour water fast and I feel INCREDIBLE!"
Highlighting the potential health benefits, Dana White acknowledged expert opinions suggesting that water fasting could significantly reduce the risk of diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's. Speaking about the process, White stated:
"So, the first 24 hours, you drink water, and you can use that [electrolytes] in your water. Then, the next day, this is the cleanest broth that you can buy. This thing only has 45 calories, less than one gram of carbs, and it has like 13 grams of protein. So, all it really has is protein and 45 calories. That is the cleanest broth available; chefs will tell you that.
"You do this twice a day for the next two days. You drink all your water with electrolytes, but you could do the broth twice a day, bone broth - the bone broth, twice a day for the next two days. You're gonna feel incredible. And obviously, you're doing it for the internal, but externally, you get absolutely shredded on this thing."
