i've just spent one week juicing and eating raw vegetables in preparation for my Water Fast (beginning today).
my one concern is electrolyte levels... are there potassium/electrolytes in Sea Salt ? if i am concerned would dissolving a little Sea Salt in water help? or is taking a potassium/electrolyte supplement an option?
i plan to go at least ten days, hopefully longer.
i am on a medication called Zeldox which claims to increase the risk of heart problems with electrolyte imbalances.

There is no need to worry about electrolyte levels on a 10 day fast, it's a rare problem on any fast and 10 days is not a long term fast for us. Taking salt during your fast could be dangerous and I would advise against it.
You will need medical advice about fasting on your medication. There are fasting supervisors who have the experience and understanding of the effect of taking medication during a fast.
You will find a list of fasting retreats around the world on this page:
http://www.fastingconnection.com/fastingretreats/
And on the same website there is an Advice section where you can get online and phone consults from fasting supervisors and doctors.
I hope this helps.
Take care,
Andrew.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,150,041thank you so much for your advice! i've already bookmarked the website you mentioned. i really appreciate all your help!!!
my personal plan is to continue going through with my 10-day fast (unmedicated... as i haven't started taking the meds yet since they were only just prescribed to me yesterday), and then afterwards re-assess the whole need for starting the medication in the first place. i truly feel in my heart of hearts that my psychiatrist was simply overreacting. tomorrow will be day 3 of my Water Fast and i'm feeling very strong and positive :)
