Religious positions, in particular, compliance with long Lent - it's not a relic, but an opportunity to improve health. In fact, moderation in food is useful for the body, mental activity and life expectancy, say modern scientists.

As a result, those mice that were fed twice a day to the full, live much longer than mice that continued to eat normally. It was found that mice in the first group are less affected stresses And wherein their bodies was more resistant to .

The researchers suggest that if caloric intake is reduced, thus the brain and the whole body is in a state of stress that provides a kind of training for it. Later, the body, which at one time was such "training" is easier to overcome serious stressful situations provoked diseases.

After studying these results of the study, some experts from the United States even advised people not only consume fewer calories, but also go to two meals a day. They are convinced that this is a positive impact on health.

However, scientists say that in addition to such "training" effect with a person who adheres to regular posts, job changes mitochondria . As a result, there is a mobilization of energy production in cells. With high returns in energy production is slowing down the aging process in the body.

Now confirm the benefit of fasting for the body and scientists, neuroscientists. They say that when dietary restrictions, as well as during starvation activated unconscious mental processes. Therefore, regardless of the religious beliefs of man for his body benefits of fasting is scientifically proven.
