Go for it. I did these in college. He just needs to test frequently. Drink the juice when needed to prevent hypos. I didn't need any fast acting insulin the entire time during the fast. The hardest part was after the fast was over... I overdid it afterwards and ran high then. My carb ratio didn't seem to work right the day after.
Tell him to have fun!
