To reach a ketogenic state, the term fast from a clinical sense required 24-36 hour period without any caloric intake; strictly water. I have done 3 day water fasts, the hunger waves need to be controlled the first 2 days, but the feeling is gone after that point.

There are many things to consider, including refeeding syndrome, it is highly advised to seek MD advice prior to undertaking such a diet.

Lastly, there is a ton of research highlighting fasting and its effects on stem cell regenerative properties.
