Hi Komal I have been placed two srent after coronary herat blokage diagnosed in sept 22 . I am doing Intermittent fasting 16 hour from last 7 days . My medicine also going on. I read some plcaes , in a video by Ms Rujuta also the fasting can increase chlostrol and triglyacide which is not good for heart, While Dr Berg in a video says the when Fat used by bosy during fast the chlostrol also relesed from fat but it is not harmful for person. Can you clarify the subject please.
Ans: Intermittent fasting has a theory wherein we extend our body's time to detox as we fast more and more.. If we constantly eat, our body focusses most of our energy into digesting/absorbing/assimilating the food, instead of detoxifying our body. We need to reverse this. Intermittent fasting affects cholesterol levels due to the change in metabolism from glucose to ketones. The the amount of HDL increases and the amount of LDL is decreased. This favorably changes your cholesterol profile and reduces the risk of dyslipidemia, a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
