• Eucharistic Fast - Catholics must also observe the Eucharistic Fast, which in the Latin Church involves taking nothing but water or medicine into the body for ONE HOUR before receiving the Eucharist.  The 1983 Code of Canon Law reduced the Eucharistic Fast from three hours to the current one-hour requirement.
