10 Benefits of Fasting
Fasting Benefit #10: Decreases Cancer Risk
Cancer is a group of diseases that have uncontrollable growth and spread of abnormal cells. Lowering many risks such as consuming a nutrient-rich diet, participating in daily exercise, and many other factors that can help prevent this disease is helpful. Emerging evidence has revealed that this is an exchange between the frequency and timing of eating and metabolic health.
A study has shown that eating frequently, lowering evening intake and fasting for longer night intervals lowered systemic inflammation, and lowered the risk of breast cancer. More further studies need to validate the relationship between fasting and cancer risk. Another study has shown how intermittent fasting does counteract disease processes by DNA repair and autophagy. Periodic fasting has also proved to help stem cell-based regeneration.
