Intermittent Fasting Benefits

Fasting has been followed by all cultures and religions in one way or the other.

Intermittent fasting

Some spiritual fasts are done for days together – Navaratri in Hinduism, Ramadan in Islam and Easter in Christianity. According to human physiology, one can live up to 40 days without any food but with water. In fact, many Yogis and Maharishis have been known to live without food or sometimes even without water for a long time, ‘eating air’ alone.

Fasting differs from starvation.
Fasting is the voluntary withholding of food for spiritual, health or other reasons. Paracelsus once said, “Fasting is the greatest remedy, the physician within”. Our genetic tendency to overeat is the root cause of everything from Diabetes to neurodegenerative disease. Fasting is the oldest and most powerful dietary intervention by simply allowing the body to burn off excess body fat.

Therapeutic Fasting or Intermittent Fasting is total abstinence from all food, but not water. The purpose of therapeutic fasting is the promotion and restoration of health. It’s the simplest way ever to lose weight and improve many health problems.

One of the benefits of fasting is that it breaks insulin resistance, which is the primary cause of Diabetes. Fasting shifts our awareness from outside of our body to inside of our body. It deepens our awareness on the self. Gradually it helps develop the quality of self restraint and resilience. Another benefit of intermittent fasting is that it detoxifies the body, which implies it enhance the productive functionality of our body.
