Does starving helps in reducing Gastric problem

I don't think starving can reduce gastric problems, infact you may face gastric problems with empty stomach, I don't think liquids can help reduce the problem

No,not really.Its a wrong myth.Starving gives much more problems than that.

I too believe so that how can starving save us.How can the article state such things with proper analysis.

Can anyone give some suggestion to reduce this problem.

Hmmm....Is the author a qualified person and did he/she give any supporting evidence or references?
Where did you come across this article? Maybe you could confront the publisher as to what are his references and what supporting data is available to prove this claim.

@Rajani, Do you have any link to the article?. I feel it is not true. It may aggravate the problem. :(

I don't think it has any such validity. I would rather say that it worsens it!

No it is not true.Starving makes many problems in gastric.Do not stay in in empty stomach.At least take some biscuits and a glass of water.

I had heard from my friends that due to starving their stomach filled with gas.Then how this?

Agree that starving is not good option and i also beleive that wont help. But i think yoga remedies are different. This was stated in some yoga related article. I am extremely sorry that i cannot paste the link here as i do not remember where i saw it. But from the time i read it, i just wanted to know did anyone have got relief by starving for a day and only taking fluids. :S


The article stated that by taking only fluids all the impurities in stomach is come out including gas. :huh:

yes i also agree by your point that starvation reduces gastecic problem.

@Deepu,
Do you have some links to support your answer?. If so, please do share so that we can get some clarity over this.

I think that a link to the article would have cleared everything but since Rajani is unable to post one it is very hard to judge about the accurateness of the article. I think the posted article must have been justified by the author by his view points and it is checked twice before get finally posted and hence there should be no doubt in our mind about it being an accurate one.

As far as I know starving aggravates the gastric problems among us and if we take some form of juice to replace food for a day or two it doesn't matter much...
