I am on my fourth day of a 5-day fast and I have had a headache since midnight (13 hours now).
It feels very much like a dehydration headache (dull pressure and pain in my forhead and sensitivity to light), but I can't believe that's it because I have been drinking at least 3 liters (probably more than 4 liters) of water a day since starting.
I have been taking multi-viatmin supplements, and I have minimized activities (but I am not lying prone).
I recall reading something once about a lack of salt causing dehydration, but that never really made sense to me.
What else could be causeing such a headache?
Thanks
