Short‑term fasting triggers autophagy, enhanced by millet‑derived antioxidants
  • A 24‑hour fast initiates cellular cleanup (autophagy), removing damaged proteins and organelles.
  • Millets contain phenolic compounds (e.g., ferulic acid) that protect cells during this stress, reducing oxidative damage.
  • Dr. Vali reports that patients who fasted weekly while consuming millet‑based meals showed improved liver enzyme profiles (ALT/AST down 30 %).
  • The combined effect accelerates liver regeneration and reduces fatty liver incidence.
  • He recommends a weekly 24‑hour fast, breaking it with ambali to re‑populate gut microbes.
