The Daniel Fast is not limited to a specific amount to fast, but rather to fruit and vegetables which you can eat, along with water.

The Daniel Fast includes water only, no coffee, tea, or carbonated drinks. Fruit juices are allowed since they are liquid forms of fruits.

The Daniel Fast is based on what the prophet Daniel ate. The Daniel fast is healthy, but it's mostly about pleasing God.
