Fasting prevents heart problems

Fasting once a month can help you to prevent heart problems. This was discovered by American scientist. For this they used data about mormons of whom many abstain from eating one day a month. They have 40% less chance of getting cardiovascular disease than people who do not fast. This beneficial effect is probably caused by increased sensitivity to insulin of the body cells. In the day that there is no food and thus no sugars entering the body there is also no insulin production.
