Benefits of fasting...

Presenting a highly informative thread on the benefits of fasting...

https://www.allaboutfasting.com/bene...f-fasting.html

In eastern medical and physical fitness systems, fasting is said to result in increase of prana/chi which results in better health and deeper states of meditation.

I have myself observed that my meditation or practice of mindfulness is subsequently of a higher quality when I have fasted and missed a lunch.

My interest in fasting came up after I read a book on it highlighting its advantages, especially in healing. I have noticed that fasting enabled me to recover from diseases like cold, fever, constipation much faster, and I usually get over it in a day or two.

In the past I used to suffer from colds and fevers for a week or more. Fasting worked well for me in this regard, though I would ask people to consult their physician before undertaking such exercises so as to be on the safer side. Fasting will not work for people with type 1 diabetes .

Fasting has been proved by research to be effective in reducing risk of cancer or cancer growth rates.
