In the name of of Allah the Merciful
The benefits of fasting in the light of medical science, very useful writing
An unparalleled heavenly gift to the9 Muslims of the world.
When Ramadan comes, Muslims all over the world fast enthusiastically. Avoid food, water, lying, anger, gossip, etc. throughout the day.
Fasting is not only a religious duty, but brings physical and spiritual benefits to the Muslim. Fasting in particular is a great strategy for human healing that God Almighty has given to His servants.
Modern medical science is now discovering the scientific facts hidden in this strategy.
As a result of this research, various starvation methods have become a popular trend among millions of people in Europe and America.
Fourteen hundred years ago, God Almighty gave the month of Ramadan to the Islamic world. Then the medical sciences got to their knees. But God Almighty knows that fasting has physical and spiritual benefits. That is why fasting has become a part of faith.
It speaks volumes about God's love for humanity and its legitimacy. Fourteen hundred years later, modern medical science has become aware of this fact. Come and become a person more graceful.
The question is what are the reasons for this miracle?
The main reason is that the process of fasting brings about amazing changes in the human body at a very small level, that is, at the cellular level, which puts the person on the path to recovery.
Disease starvation courses in the treatment of diseases in the United States and Europe
Experts in the field of medical science have been conducting research and experiments at the cellular level over the past few years to find out how fasting improves human health by staying hungry and thirsty throughout the day. That is why millions of Muslims in the Western world began to starve in certain months of the year or on certain days of the month.
Doctors in the United States and European countries have developed their own starvation nutritional programs, which are gaining popularity. Thanks to them, doctors earn millions of dollars annually. Likewise, many companies are developing specific hunger-related foods. The starvation industry in the Western world is worth billions of dollars.
Here is a list of medical science that has discovered the benefits of fasting (or fasting throughout the day) over the past few years.
Fasting eliminates fat and obesity
For the past two years, three nutrition experts at the University of Florida, Douglas Bean, Martin Wegman and Michael Gao, have been researching what kind of effects occur on the human body when a person stays away from food and drink for days and goes hungry What are the effects? His research began after he was affected by the month of Ramadan, and nutritionists say that even the elderly were hungry. When there was plenty of food in their area, they ate well. But when food became scarce, the ancients starved for days. That is why the cells of the human body can cope well with starvation and starvation.
Many experts believe that fasting has health benefits when it lowers blood sugar or glucose levels in the body. Remember, when we eat food, our bodies get sugar from food. This sugar is also the body's fuel. The blood is responsible for delivering this fuel to each organ. If eating a lot of food increases the amount of sugar in the body, the leaf secretes a hormone called insulin. This hormone stores excess sugar in the liver in the form of glycogen.
When the amount of sugar in the human body decreases, the liver releases a hormone called glucagon. This hormone is stored in the body, which converts glycogen back into sugar and releases it into the bloodstream to provide energy for the human body to function on a daily basis.
If the glycogen accumulated in the liver begins to be depleted, then it provides a small amount. This glycogen is now the main human organ in the form of sugar
The brain, for example, will provide fuel or energy for the heart and kidneys. These ketones provide energy for the cells of the rest of the organs so that they can function properly.
Ketones do not harm the normal human body. But if a person has diabetes, an increase in ketones in the blood can lead to many problems. For example, vomiting, difficulty breathing, rapid heartbeat, nervousness, etc. Without immediate treatment, anyone can die. So diabetics have to pay attention and hurry, but in a normal person, losing fat helps to become smart and healthy.
Obese men and women with diabetes can also lose fat by fasting.
But it's important that they don't allow too much ketones in the blood and keep the amount in moderation, and losing weight is actually key to longevity and anti-aging strategies. Medical experiments on animals and humans have shown that underweight animals live longer than obese animals.
harmful health origin
The human being is a collection of billions of cells. These cells produce the energy the body needs through sugar. During this process a dangerous by-product "free radicals" is also produced. These are molecules that do not have electrons, so they become an ostrich. It attacks cells, stealing their electrons, and rendering them ineffective. Antioxidants are produced in all living things. These substances constantly give electrons to free radicals and turn them into harmless or noble molecules. Thus, the number of free radicals in the human body does not increase and the person remains healthy.
The effects of the human and unhealthy diet and the elimination of its harmful effects from fasting
If a person eats unhealthy food, smokes, and consumes pesticides, these products produce a large number of free radicals in the body that cannot be eliminated with antioxidants. As a result, free radicals invade cells and infect humans with infectious diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and other diseases. These same diseases make a person age prematurely and eventually lead him to the grave.
A specific part of each cell produces energy from sugar. This part is called the mitochondria, which you can think of as the cell's power plant. Modern medical science has discovered a great benefit of fasting in relation to these mitochondria.
Mitochondria disappear
When a person constantly fasts in the month of Ramadan, the cells do not get enough sugar throughout the day. The human cells then have to produce energy using fats and other nutrients stored in the human body. Thus, during Ramadan, a person who fasts regularly and follows a healthy diet, his millions of cells get rid of defective mitochondria, and this is a great medical benefit of fasting revealed by recent scientific research. The reason is that the fasting person gets rid of bad mitochondria by following the command of God Almighty.
In this way, the number of free radicals in the body of the fasting person begins to decrease constantly. Thus, he embarks on a journey of health and well-being. The lack of free radicals often reduces the severity of infectious diseases and makes a person feel better. The biggest benefit of this process is that reducing free radicals increases the lifespan of the fasting person.
Remember, when the number of free radicals increases in the human body, this condition is called "oxidative stress" or "oxidative stress" in scientific terms. This is a condition dangerous to human health. In this case, a person becomes a victim of internal inflammation. This condition then damages cells, proteins and DNA.
Exercise and fasting
It is interesting to note that when we exercise or work hard, a large number of independent geniuses are born. This activity also increases oxidative stress in our bodies. But look at the allure of God's work that this stress from exercise is not harmful but beneficial to the human body, it grows our tissues and gives rise to antioxidants that protect our bodies. However, this pressure only lasts for a short time and then disappears. If it continues for a long time, it will harm the human body.
The role of body fat and various vitamins
On this occasion, fat must also be mentioned. There are different types of fats such as saturated, trans fats, monounsaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats. It is generally believed that fats are dangerous to human health. But it becomes dangerous when a person begins to eat foods rich in fat every day, and the fact that a person needs from 40 to 70 grams of fat per day to maintain his health. This is because fat in the human body is a "reserve" for energy or a safe fuel. The main fuel for our body is starch (carbohydrate) which makes sugar. But when there is not much sugar available, as mentioned, the human body uses fat as fuel. In addition to starch and fats, the human body also obtains energy from protein. These three nutrients are the main source of fuel for humans.
Of the three fuels listed above, fat contains the most calories. Each gram of starch and protein contains 4 calories while 1 gram of fat contains 9 calories. That is why a person should try to meet only 25 to 35% of his daily fat quota with fat. Eating a lot of fat will only harm your health. Vitamins A, D, E and K are absorbed by the human body only when we have the required amount of fat in our body. These vitamins are guarantors of our health. For example, vitamin A keeps our eyes healthy and improves vision. Vitamin D strengthens our bones by absorbing calcium in the body.
Vitamin E free radicals
Vitamin E helps the body get rid of free radicals thus protecting cells. Vitamin A prevents the formation of blood clots. If the human body does not contain a reasonable amount of fat, the person begins to get sick by losing all these important vitamins, moreover, fat accumulates in our skin cells and maintains the balance of body temperature. Fats are also found around our vital organs. These fats protect them from shocks.
Different types of fats
It should be noted that nutritionists consider two types of fats, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated, to be beneficial to human health, while saturated fats and stress fats are considered harmful. Therefore, you should try to eat only foods that contain useful types of fats. Especially in the month of Ramadan, those who are fasting should eat fatty foods in moderation so that they can take full advantage of this blessed month. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are found in vegetable oils, nuts, and freshwater fish such as tuna and salmon, while unhealthy fats are found in red meat, fish and dairy products. So eat these foods in moderation. Excess of unhealthy fats in the human body can lead to heart disease and stroke.
Don't blindly fill your stomach, don't eat too much
Excess starch in the daily diet is also harmful. In Pakistan and India, most people fill their stomachs with bread or rice, but these foods make a lot of sugar in the human body. This sugar then keeps cells occupied at all times and makes them age prematurely. Because of this disorder, man also quickly weakens and accepts death, so now nutritionists advise men to get 50% of their daily calories from starchy foods. Take the rest of your calories from protein and fatty foods. The second important thing is not to eat so much food that a full stomach makes breathing difficult.
Scientists and experiments
Scientists have learned from various experiments that organisms that eat less food live longer than others. As if eating less food is a guarantee of health and longevity. Not only that, with the help of this drug you can do wonders in your life. Ramadan also teaches us the same lesson that you don't fill your stomach blindly but leave an empty part and eat it.
During fasting, mitochondria, the power plant found in every cell of the human body, do not get the required food. The role of the serotonin 3 gene is important in this starvation state. It activates two special metabolic molecules present in the cell. Thanks to the activation of these enzymes, the cell is able to efficiently produce energy from fats or proteins stored in the human body.
A constant supply of fresh air (oxygen) to every cell in the human body is essential because it helps the cells function properly. If cells don't get the oxygen they need, they will break down. And in the bodies of all living things, including humans, there are special types of cells called "stem cells" in the bone marrow. These stem cells produce new red blood cells. According to modern medical research, 2.4 million new red cells are born in every adult human being every second. The red cell lives for four months and then dies, and the problem is that the number of stem cells in the bone marrow begins to decline as we age. As a result, red blood cells are born in small numbers.
As their numbers dwindle, so does the difficulty of delivering oxygen to human cells. As a result, the cells' performance is affected and they are not able to carry out their responsibilities properly. This negative state speeds up the rate of aging, and researchers at the University of California at Berkeley were surprised by the results of their experiments. Then they began to discover that the miracle serotonin 3 showed that the number of red blood cells increased?
This phenomenal experience shows why Muslims gain health benefits through Ramadan fasting! The reason is that when they are hungry, they produce a lot of serotonin 3 protein genes. As their quantity increases, stem cells in the bone marrow get rid of oxidative stress and produce more red blood cells. The abundance of new red blood cells improves the general health of the fasting person.
New blood heals the fasting person.
It is clear from the foregoing that all Muslims should follow the system of eating and drinking during Ramadan.
They can adopt it all year round,
Thus this heavenly system would become the guarantor of their health and well-being.
Note: Even if these are not all the benefits, we Muslims must keep in mind the rules of fasting and other actions.
