During fasting, Muslims suffer from hunger and thirst from early morning till sunset. While it is religiously superior, today science is also praising this method.

According to experts, healthy changes occur in blood sugar, glucose level, cholesterol level, insulin and blood pressure during fasting.

Along with this, various researches are now proving that intermittent fasting for only 1 month throughout the year has positive effects on health.

Intermittent fasting is the practice of fasting for up to 16 hours a day while eating only for the remaining 8 hours.

This is exactly what Muslims around the world do in the month of Ramadan. Muslims in different parts of the world are hungry and thirsty for about 11 to 15 hours from dawn till sunset and eat during the rest of the time.

According to British nutritionist Rachel Clarkson, the method of increasing the interval between meals is used for weight loss.

Also, the act of taking a break from eating starts an internal process in the body called ‘autophagy’.

Autophagy is a process during which the human body begins to rebuild internal cells, especially the place where DNA is located, the nucleus, along with the mitochondria, where the chemical substances that provide the energy needed by human cells. and lysosomes that remove waste from cells, this process also internally energizes them.

During this process, new human body cells are born and some material is also produced which increases the life of human body cells.

According to scientific research so far, autophagy improves the immune system of the human body. Due to the same reason of keeping body cells healthy, it is now being thought that it is possible to help control cancer.

Interestingly, autophagy is a natural process, meaning that most of us do nothing but it happens during sleep. Exercise and starvation also induce the process of autophagy.
