Fasting is also Essential For Health

 Fasting is also Essential For Health

Hundreds of years ago, it was believed that fasting relaxed the digestive system, but as medical knowledge progressed, it became clear that fasting was a medical miracle.

The digestive system consists of many organs. Vital organs such as the salivary glands in the mouth and jaw, tongue, throat, esophagus, stomach, twelve fingers intestine, liver, pancreas, and various parts of the intestines are part of this system.

These complex organs work automatically as a computer. As soon as we start eating or intending to eat, this whole system goes into motion. Each organ begins its own function. Obviously, in addition to being on duty 24 hours a day, the whole system is "infiltrated" by nervous stress and the wrong kind of food. Fasting in a way gives the whole system a month's rest.

In fact, it has a surprising effect on the liver in particular, as the liver has many other functions besides digesting food. It is as exhausting as a watchman standing guard for a lifetime.

This is why bile is the fluid that is excreted for digestion. Causes a variety of problems and affects other actions as well.

On the other hand, fasting gives the liver four to six hours of rest. This is absolutely impossible without fasting, because a very small amount of food, even one-tenth of a gram if it enters the stomach, the whole digestive system starts working.

The liver becomes active immediately. From a scientific point of view, it can be claimed that his rest period should be one month in a year. The modern man, who sets an extraordinary price for his life, begins to feel safe through numerous medical examinations.

But if the liver cell had the power to speak, it would say to such a person that you can do me a great favor only by fasting. One of the blessings of fasting on the liver is related to its effect on the chemical process of the blood.

One of the most difficult functions of the liver is to maintain a balance between indigestible food and digested food. It either has to store each bite or monitor the process of digesting and dissolving it through the blood. Through fasting, the liver becomes largely free from the process of "storing" energetic food.

In this way, the liver can devote its energy to the production of globulin in the blood, which strengthens the body's immune system. There is no price for this gift of comfort for the extremely sensitive organs of the throat and esophagus through fasting.

Fasting also balances the secretions from the stomach. Due to this, acid does not accumulate during fasting. Although it is aggravated by a general type of hunger, the production of an acid stops with the intention and purpose of fasting. In this way, the stomach muscles and the cells that produce gastric moisture goes into a state of rest during Ramadan.

Fasting also provides comfort and energy to the intestines. It is caused by the formation of healthy fluids and the movement of stomach muscles. Beneath the intestinal lining (Endothelium) is the basic element of the immune system, as the intestinal tract regains new energy and freshness during fasting. In this way, we are protected from all the diseases that can attack the digestive tract.

Beneficial effects on blood during fasting:

Provides relief to the heart by reducing blood volume during fasting. More importantly, the reduction in the amount of intercellular fluid between the cells reduces the pressure on the tissue, ie the muscles. It is also called diastolic.

During fasting, the diastolic pressure is always at a low level, ie the heart is at rest. Furthermore, man suffers from severe hypertension due to certain conditions of modern life. One month of fasting in Ramadan is of immense benefit to man by reducing diastolic pressure.

It is now common knowledge that one of the most important causes of weakening and depletion of blood vessels cannot be the complete dissolution of remnants in the blood, while on the other handfasting is especially important iftar. Over time, all the nutrients in the blood are dissolved. None of this is left. This way fat or other ingredients do not build upon the walls of the blood vessels. This protects the arteries from narrowing.

Therefore, fasting is the best way to avoid the most dangerous diseases of the present age, of which arteriosclerosis is the most prominent.

Since those who fall during fasting who is considered to be a part of the bloodstream are at rest, the strength of these vital organs of the body is also restored with the blessings of fasting

Effect of fasting on body cells:

The most important effect of fasting is to maintain a balance between the cells and the fluid inside the cells. As the amount of different fluids decreases during fasting, the process of cells is greatly relaxed.

Similarly, cells on the upper surface of the mucous membrane called epithelial cells are responsible for the constant excretion of body fluids. They also get rest and peace only through fasting which increases their health. We can say that the pituitary glands, the thyroid gland, and the pancreas glands wait anxiously for the month of Ramadan to get some relief from the blessings of fasting. Be able to burn your energies to do more.

The effect of fasting on the nervous system:

The fact must be fully understood that some people develop irritability due to egotistic or harsh nature. In contrast, during fasting, the nervous system is in a state of complete calm and relaxation.

The satisfaction that comes from performing acts of worship removes all our bitterness and anger. In this regard, because of being more humble and submissive to the will of Allah, our worries also dissolve and disappear.

In the same way, today's severe problems appear in the form of nervous stress. Almost completely disappear. The combined effect of fasting and ablution creates a strong harmony.

The usefulness of fasting in the formation of blood is in the formation of blood in the bone marrow. Whenever the body needs blood, an automated system stimulates the bone marrow.

In this way, through the many biological blessings associated with fasting, a lean person can gain weight. Similarly, obese people can lose weight through the general blessings of fasting on health.
