However, intermittent fasting could prolong your life&#8211;eat less, live longer. Let\u2019s take a look at the 3 benefits of fasting and their effects on our longevity:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left; color: #00873f;\">1. Cleans up dead cells<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Recent research on intermittent fasting has shown that fasting can actually increase the process of dead cell removal in the body, called autophagy. This essentially means that after the damaged cells are broken down, there\u2019s room for new ones, which help with various bodily functions, increasing longevity and potentially preventing the risk of cancers or other age-related diseases.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #00873f;\"><strong>2. Lowers oxidative stress with alternate-day fasting<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When there\u2019s an imbalance in free radicals and antioxidants in the body, our cells, proteins, and DNA can be damaged. According to research, when consuming less unhealthy foods and replacing them with healthy calories, the antioxidant uric acid increases, therefore reducing the harmful effects of oxidative stress and potentially prolonging our lifespan.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #00873f;\"><strong>3. Reduces the risk for age-related diseases<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Reduced risk of Type-2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Diseases, lowered cholesterol levels, incorporated exercise, and many others could fall into the list of benefits of intermittent fasting. It\u2019s not simply saying that everything gets better with a consistently nutritious diet and an active lifestyle. We\u2019re talking science here!<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 1.5em;\"><span style=\"color: #00873f;\"><strong>Benefits You May Receive From Fasting&#8230;<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3773 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.newleafcenters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/fasting-benefits-green.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"927\" height=\"208\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1.5em;\">Fasting partners well with Semaglutide.
