Eating Water

Eating Water from Michael Travis on Vimeo.

Wellness practitioner Dr Dov Phillips (New Zealand) undertakes a "water fast" - eating nothing, and drinking only water - to assess the benefits for the body and mind. This documentary follows him as he playfully explores the hunger, science and philosophy behind this unique technique, in contrast to our habitual eating behaviours. How many days do you think he will last without any food? You might be surprised. You can also read his own account, at the Connect to Life blog.
