Fasting, or the intentional abstention from food for a specified period, can lead to various physiological and metabolic changes in the body.
The effects of fasting can vary depending on the duration of the fast, individual health conditions, and other factors. Here are some general responses that may occur during fasting:
This is what happens to your body when you eat too fast
Glycogen Depletion:
In the first 24 to 48 hours of fasting, the body relies on stored glycogen (a form of glucose stored in the liver and muscles) for energy. As glycogen is depleted, water is also released, contributing to initial weight loss.
Ketosis:
When glycogen stores are exhausted, the body starts breaking down fat into ketones, which can be used as an alternative fuel source. This state is known as ketosis and is associated with some types of fasting, such as intermittent fasting or extended fasting.
