you're absolutely correct. It can be dangerous. It can also backfire or make you pretty miserable.
although I don't think I have any health condition that would preclude a fast, the plan I followed had very specific foods to eat for a week beforehand, and three days afterward (things like fiber-rich foods, specific protein, etc.), plus a specific juice recipe to imbibe on the one day.
I really didn't notice any ill effects and may try it again. As soon as I can stomach the sight of crucifurous vegies.
