      My friend the Scientist is muslim and prophet mohamed peace be upon him directed as follows:
      Abu Hurairah narrated that: the Messenger of Allah said: "Deeds are presented on Monday and Thursday, and I love that my deeds be presented while I am fasting."
      Based on the Hadeth he said. He did the study. So the best way is to fast from morning till after sunset. I have I have benefits u. If you still don’t get better. Than do it like this Hadeth ((Abu Qatada al-Ansari (Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) was asked about his fasting. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) felt annoyed. Thereupon 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) said: We are pleased with Allah as the Lord, with Islam as our Code of Life, with Muhammad as the Messenger and with our pledge (to you for willing and cheerful submission) as a (sacred) commitment. He was then asked about perpetual fasting, whereupon he said: He neither fasted nor did he break it, or he did not fast and he did not break it. He was then asked about fasting for two days and breaking one day. He (the Holy Prophet) said: And who has strength enough to do it? He was asked about fasting for a day and breaking for two days, whereupon he said: May Allah bestow upon us strength to do it. He was then asked about fasting for a day and breaking on the other, whereupon he said: That is the fasting of my brother David (peace be upon him). He was then asked about fasting on Monday, whereupon he said: It was the day on which I was born. on which I was commissioned with prophethood or revelation was sent to me, (and he further) said: Three days' fasting every month and of the whole of Ramadan every year is a perpetual fast. He was asked about fasting on the day of 'Arafa (9th of Dhu'I-Hijja), whereupon he said: It expiates the sins of the preceding year and the coming year. He was asked about fasting on the day of 'Ashura (10th of Muharram), whereupon be said: It expiates the sins of the preceding year. (Imam Muslim said that in this hadith there is a) narration of Imam Shu'ba that he was asked about fasting on Monday and Thursday, but we (Imam Muslim) did not mention Thursday for we found it as an error (in reporting).)).

      @Rofi, the habit of fasting is beneficial if followed with an appropriate diet. Muslims fast every year during Ramadan but non of the Muslim majority countries have high life-expectancy levels and instead are ranked higher in obesity and diseases related to obesity. This definitely relates to poor dietary choices like processed carbs, sugars and low quality fats. So, hope you follow an appropriate diet most of the time so as not to negate the benefits of fasting. Good luck and health.

    Thank God. As Muslims, God enjoined us to fast for a full month every year, and He loved us to fast on Mondays and Thursdays of every week, and for three days in the middle of each month, and He showed us that being full of food is an abomination that causes laziness, weakness of determination, and inherits diseases.
    Alhamdu le Allah we are truly blessed .

    So, too much autophagy may have undesired effects in cancer where autophagy can promote the growth of tumor cells and the resistance of anti cancer drugs? 🤔 I would rather take my chances with autophagy over Anti cancer drugs any day. Autophagy kicks anti cancer drugs to the curb. My guess they had to word this way, for if they did not, they would be out billions of dollars in anti cancer drugs.

      I'm glad you said that. There is strong evidence that fasting increases the impact of chemotherapy because fasting weakens the cancer cells and cancer cells feed off glucose which obviously can't be consumed when trying to achieve authophagy. It shows how corrupt things are when research is supplement buy lies to maintain share prices. I was shocked when she said that.

    Mainly in Hinduism even now most of the people fasted once in a month compulsorily called 'Ekadashi'.

      @@khaledalsharabi4178 sorry for my late reply. I haven't searched for this video or this research specifically, but, doing an overlook over the whole web, the most common outcome is that autophagy would promote the DESTRUCTION of tumor cells. Why, because autophagy is when cells destroys (eat themselves to death) themselves, therefore, it is not a constructive or expansional movement, but a reduction one. When you fast, this process generally occurs naturally. That's why there have been implications of fasting being related to the healing of many diseases, such as cancer and others. Your body detoxifies and breaks "things" that are stored, not only fats, but also toxins, etc. It's like resetting the system. I do believe fasting (to its limits, up to 7 days and that's really good already) + water can cure cancer, as well as other things.

    Autophagy can heal our own bodies from any illness, including cancers & autoimmune diseases. Yet so many people suffer & die needlessly…..because there’s no money in Drs telling their patients to just start a water fast. It hurts my heart.

      Autophagy means 24 hours water fast ? Am I right ?

      IF is good.
      otherwise a longer fast, like a week or 2 once a year would be beneficial. Many claim that a 2 week fast once a year is lice a cancer vaccine as authopogy should then clear out any cancer that might be starting to develop. Also cancer cells lives off sugar, and when you fast you will be in ketosis, and running your body on fat instead of sugar, and cancer cells can't run on "ketones" (fat)

    Yoshinori Ohsumi converted to islam after this discovery, because Muslims fast in the holy month of Ramadan and fast 2 days a week Monday & Thursday which our prophet Muhammad (PBH) was doing in his daily life , this proves that Islam is the right religion.

    1400 years ago, Prophet Muhammad Peace and Prayer be upon him taught Muslims a norm and tradition of fasting two days per week and said "Fasting, to be healthy". I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God.
