The practice of fasting allows nature to carry out its cleansing process without the stress of the digestion process.

Fasting is one of the most ancient methods of healing the body from ailments in the body and mind. It's more than just not eating. Fasting is complete abstinence from taking any kind of food for specific period for a specific purpose. Fasting in Sanskrit is 'Upvasam' literally means staying near (God). This word is derived from the English word 'feastan' which means to fast, observe.
When we eat the wrong things, we eventually get sick, or at least do not have the health and vitality that we should possess. The common cause of all diseases is accumulation of waste and poisonous matter in the body which results from overeating. Most of the people eat much and lead a sedentary lifestyle which does not utilize this large quantity of food. Hence the digestive organs are over burdened and clog up the system with poisonous wastes. Due to this digestion and elimination becomes slow. The functions of all the organs get altered. The functions of the whole system can be activated only by doing opposite to its use. That's by reducing the intake of food or by fasting. When the food is taken in less quantity, the other organs start functioning better. When the body is deprived of food, the organs of elimination like bowels, kidneys, skin, and lungs are given an opportunity to expel the toxin, accumulated wastes from the body. Body starts repairing and rejuvenating itself. Thus fasting therapy is the best, safe and it is an effective means of self-purification of the body and quick method of cure.
