Is there Scientific Evidence?
The Russian Golia Achinsk Hospital on the shores of Lake Baykal has been fasting for 50 years. After the doctor gives an explanation to patients with allergies or asthma, fast for 10 days to 3 weeks. During the period, all you have to eat is water. The feeling of hunger disappears in about three days, but headaches and malaise occur, so a doctor will perform an examination and, in some cases, stop fasting. Fasting was adopted as a treatment for psychiatric patients in Moscow in the 1950s. In the process, it turned out to be effective for high blood pressure and visceral diseases. Large-scale research progressed in the 1970s, and it became clear that the stress on the body caused by fasting enhances the natural resistance and healing power of human beings.
After that, fasting has been utilized in asthma treatment and has been effective. Fasting is recognized as part of medical care in Russia. In Germany, 20% of the people are experiencing fasting. Hospitals around the world offer fasting treatment courses for about 3 weeks under the supervision of doctors. Many cases have been reported in which liver hypertrophy and functional decline have recovered. Follow the latest research in “Science of Fasting” in Russia, Germany, France and the United States.
