In Tools of Titans, Ferriss breaks down his fasting protocol.
His regimen involves intermittent periods of fasting, and of consuming certain supplements and water. Again, this is an aggressive protocol and may be difficult for those who have never fasted before.
His entire 3-Day process is outlined in his book, Tools for Titans, but the below information is pulled from his podcast transcripts, and this health blog as a supporting resource.
Pre: Evening
The evening prior to starting the fast, Tim Ferriss recommends consuming a slow carbohydrate dinner (around 6 PM). That is the last meal of the day before bedtime. Then, the next morning, the real routine begins.

Morning
Drink caffeine to start off the day (Ferriss recommends black coffee or tea with coconut oil)
Go for a 3-4 hour walk within 30 minutes of waking up; bring a bottle of water with you with some added salt (prevents cramping)

The long walk serves the purpose of using up your glycogen stores. This forces the body further into ketosis. The faster you reach ketosis, the less time you feel the negative effects of hunger. Walking also helps reduce muscle wastage.
Daytime
Consume exogenous ketones or MCT oil 2-3 times throughout the day

The next morning eat a Healthy Solid Meal, or Start the Protein Shake program from above. Consume 3-4 Shakes per day with one Healthy Solid meal for a early dinner.
