10 Benefits Of Fasting

6: Improves Brain Function

The brain is one of the most important parts of the body. Consuming nutrient-rich foods and managing our stress levels is critical for our overall health. Doctors have evaluated(hisoblab chiqmoq) the mind and body connection for centuries. Intermittent fasting is a way to increase rates of new brain cells and nerve tissues in the brain. A particular study showed that fasting stimulated(harakatga keltirmoq) the production of new brain cells. Dietary restriction or intermittent fasting has profound (katta) effects on brain function and protects neurons against Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s disease.

7: Increases Longevity(uzoq umr) And Slows Down The Aging(qarish) Process

The goal is to live a healthy and long life. Daily exercise, a well-balanced(meyorida) diet, physical and emotional health is usually the recipe(olib boruvchi yol) for that. Now add intermittent fasting. A new study from Harvard University has shown how fasting can slow the aging process, and increase one’s lifespan. It focused on the basic biology that showed how cells cannot process energy over time which leads to disease. Researchers found that restricting the diet of worms maintained the mitochondrial(mitoxondrion) in a young state. These then communicated with peroxisomes to restrain fat metabolism. This helps slow down the aging process at the cellular level.

8: Decreases Blood Sugar

Type 2 diabetes is on the rise. Preventative measures and a well nutrient-rich diet are essential. In a recent study, intermittent fasting and alternate day fasting was compared. Body weight, fasting glucose, insulin, and insulin sensitivity were measured. The results showed that there was decrease in body weight, fasting insulin, and insulin resistance, with clinically meaningful reductions in glucose levels.

9: Fights Inflammation(gazak) And Improves Immune System

The immune system needs the strength to fight disease and tackle(bartaraf etmoq) inflammation. Chronic inflammation is the cause of many chronic diseases such as diabetes, dementia, bowel diseases, and more. Intermittent fasting has shown studies that have reduced inflammation dramatically.
It is also claimed that it can treat health conditions such as colitis, heart disease, and arthritis. A calorie restricted diet was shown to reduce symptoms of autoimmune diseases such as lupus and reduce symptoms of multiple sclerosis(tana qotib qolishi). For gut health, many gastrointestinal disease symptoms are alleviated(yengillashtirmoq) by fasting therapy especially irritable(asabiy) bowel syndrome.
