Fasting can promote weight loss, improve metabolic health, support blood sugar regulation, enhance mental clarity, and may reduce inflammation and the risk of chronic diseases.
Many people report increased mental clarity and focus during fasting periods, likely due to stabilized blood sugar levels and the production of ketones, which can serve as an alternative energy source for the brain.
Fasting can cause dehydration, nutrient deficiencies, dizziness, fatigue, and may be unsafe for individuals with certain medical conditions, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those with a history of eating disorders.
No, fasting is not suitable for everyone. People with diabetes, low blood pressure, or chronic illnesses, as well as pregnant or breastfeeding women, should consult a healthcare professional before starting any fasting regimen.
It’s important to stay hydrated, listen to your body, avoid extreme or prolonged fasts without medical supervision, and gradually ease into fasting routines. Consulting a healthcare provider is recommended to ensure safety and appropriateness.
