Stay Young, Fit and Happy Spiritually and Scientifically

It discusses the positive results of keeping fasts proved by scientists in a recent study.

In many religions, people keep fast on eve of various festivals or in order to give respect to their deities. This word has always been related to religious sentiments. In simple terms, it can be seen as a day on which a person refrains from taking anything made from food grains. If you believe in it, call it a fast and if you don’t then call it a spiritual trend which has already been proved very useful according to the recent study of the scientists.


It has been found as a tool to keep oneself fit and healthy and also enabling one’s capacity to live longer with great ability to fight against diseases. Not only this, it also reduces the wrinkles on the skin making the person live a long young life. This also helps a lot in reducing the accumulation of fat which leads to various diseases as we grow old.
And this is very logical as well. What do we do to give rest to our body? Yes, and if we don’t do that then our health faces the consequences. In the similar way, the system of our body also needs some rest from the daily process.
And, let me be very specific. In order to achieve all the positive results of fast which people usually say doesn’t tell us to be empty bellied through out the day. It requires us to take mostly liquid substances or fruits which provide a little rest to the grinding mechanism of the body. Apart from all this, the remembrance of our deities and the chanting of prayers give a special effect to our mind which increases the concentration and takes us far from the hustle bustle of the modern world into a much calmer world with a soothing effect. We can’t relate fasting to the common used dieting process which squeezes out the glow rather than enhancing the beauty.

So, instead of drying the system of our body in the name of dieting, it’s better to follow a one meal diet light diet without grains for one day of the week with some extra good work and a little time for the almighty which can bring a drastic change in our complete personality including our thought process.
