He added a list of things that he claimed he needed to avoid, such as food, vape, and human interaction.

He further said that ChatGPT was in charge of creating his daily routine and “survival challenges.”
FouseyTube's recent revelation:
After his March 2 post, he regularly shared updates with his fans and followers. On March 31, he shared a post announcing the conclusion of his water fast.
“Day 30 of my 30 Day Water Fast. It’s not until you look back at where you started that you realize how far you’ve come. There’s so much I could say—but I’m physically, mentally, and spiritually drained in a way words can’t describe,” Erakat wrote. He concluded with images of his before and after physic - and they capture his incredible transformation.
