I once watched a related health documentary in England, and the main point mentioned in it was to keep healthy by fasting. The essence of fasting is to eat less, or even not to eat at a certain time. These people who insist on cleaning up the mess only have a normal diet for three days a week, and the remaining four days only rely on drinking water and eating fruit to maintain normal operation.
China's valley-crossing health care and soup stew have the same effect. The so-called keeping in good health through the valley does not mean not eating at all. If you use this hunger strike method, there is no health preservation effect at all, but it will do great harm to your body. During the B-share period, the body also needs a lot of energy, so we also need to eat something to maintain the normal operation of the body. Besides fruits, we also need to eat some fresh vegetables, which can provide us with a lot of nutrition.
However, when crossing the valley, our food intake will be significantly reduced. If we are usually seven points full, in the case of crossing the valley, we only eat three points full. The reason why this can play a role in health preservation is mainly because we often eat it when eating.
The burden on the stomach will be very serious, and every organ in the body has its limits. When the burden increases, the organs in the body will be over-consumed, so there will be an early decline.
After reducing the amount of food, the organs in the body will no longer bear a lot of burdens and operate well, which can also make the natural circulation of the body normal and accelerate our basal metabolic rate. So there is some truth in keeping in good health, but it must be done according to the normal process.
