Fasting reduces reliance on medication for hypertension and fatty liver
Dr. Vali’s clinic observed that patients who adopted a 12‑hour nightly fast while eating millet meals were able to taper off antihypertensive drugs within three months.
Blood pressure dropped on average from 148/92 mmHg to 124/78 mmHg.
Fatty liver ultrasound scores improved in 70 % of participants after six months of combined fasting and millet diet.
The mechanism involves reduced insulin resistance, lower sympathetic tone, and improved hepatic lipid oxidation.
He stresses that fasting should be personalized and supervised, especially for patients on existing medication.
