Abstaining from food or specific foods for an extended period of time is known as fasting. It may be utilized for spiritual, religious, medical, or other purposes. It is frequently carried out for a set amount of time in order to concentrate on prayer or meditation. Moreover, the body can be detoxified and the digestive tract can be cleaned through fasting.

There are many health benefits we can derived from fasting some of them are as follows:

• Better Psychological Well being: Fasting has been shown to boost focus and concentration while reducing anxiety and psychological stress.

• Increased White Blood Cell Production: By encouraging the body to produce more white blood cells, fasting can help to strengthen your immune system. Your health and infection resistance will both benefit from this.
