How does Ramadan fasting help rid the body of accumulated toxins?

<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><strong>Arab weather</strong> - The first and supreme goal of fasting the month of Ramadan is to prepare hearts for piety and to sense the control of God Almighty, but fasting also has health goals, <strong>foremost of which is ridding the body of accumulated toxins, which are considered among the most important causes of diseases, so how does fasting help rid the body of these toxins?</strong></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Mohamed Ramadan El-Gohary, a specialist in food toxins and contaminants at the National Research Center in Egypt, and a member of the Research Society for the Study of Liver and Digestive Diseases, points to the roles that the body plays during the fasting period, through which fasting helps rid the body of toxins.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Al-Jawhari says, that the process of digesting and processing food (whether in the stomach or intestines) consumes a lot of energy from the body, and during fasting this high energy will be provided and an opportunity for the body to use it to get rid of toxins and renew blood by building new blood cells, as well as digestive enzymes will be provided To produce other enzymes that help all other body systems.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Fasting leaves its effect in the field of combating body toxins on an important organ, which is the liver. Al-Jawhari explains that the liver, instead of being preoccupied with producing bile used in the digestion process, will be given the opportunity to get rid of all the toxins in the body, as well as complete the building process and activate the immune system.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> He added that the kidneys also benefit from fasting, as they are given the opportunity to purify the blood of unwanted substances, whether leftover medicines or excess salts from the body, and through them these toxins are expelled through urine out of the body.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Fasting alone achieves these advantages in eliminating toxins, <strong>but the efficiency of this process can be raised during fasting through some simple instructions, which are:</strong></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Exercising lightly or walking, especially before breakfast, helps the body to get rid of the accumulated toxins.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> It is preferable to break the fast with a date or/and two cups of water to be drunk slowly, then rise for Maghrib prayer, and then eat breakfast.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Starting breakfast by eating green salads or a light soup dish so that the stomach is alerted to the arrival of food instead of surprising it with large quantities of food.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Eat slowly, and give up an incorrect phrase we always say to our children, which is: “It is forbidden to speak while eating.” This advice is not scientifically correct, as it is preferable to talk to the family during food, but after swallowing, because this helps to slow down the process of eating, Which helps the stomach to receive food slowly and give it the opportunity to digest it completely and properly.</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Finally, it is advised not to have a lot of sweets because they make the person thirsty, and instead, it is preferable to eat vegetables that are full of water such as cucumbers and lettuce and fruits such as oranges, apples and bananas.</li></ul><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>You may also be interested in: <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D9%85%D8%A7-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%81... is the difference between the time of Imsak and the time of Fajr azan?</a></strong></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>You may also be interested: <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D9%87%D9%84-%D9%8A%D9%85%D9%83...
