Let's talk today about contraindications to fasting-dietary therapy (RDT). This is a medical technique that, like any other, has its limitations.

There are cases when it is necessary to first cure a disease, and then just starve, as, for example, in the case of tuberculosis.
There are few absolute contraindications, when you should 100% abstain from hunger. Most often there are diseases in which you can fast, but carefully.
RELATIVE CONTRAINDICATIONS TO FASTING-DIET THERAPY:
These are contraindications when you can fast only after detailed diagnosis and consultation with experienced specialists. If you find relative contraindications from the list below, but are interested in fasting, the best option would be to seek medical advice. Spa Hunger center. Firstly, because here you can undergo the most modern diagnostics (there are so many diagnostic procedures that a separate article will be devoted to this). Secondly, because at Spa Golod hunger has been tamed for more than 30 years. This means that doctors here can give very accurate predictions about how the disease will manifest itself during the course of fasting-dietary therapy. So, a list of relative contraindications:

Some diseases are particularly common and deserve to be discussed in more detail. This:

— Diabetes mellitus type II. If these are the initial stages, and a person takes medications and adheres to dietary recommendations (the disease is controlled), then he can fast under the supervision of doctors who will monitor sugar levels and give special recommendations when recovering from hunger. But in general, people with diabetes fast and get very good results. People often switch from medications (which have side effects) to simply dieting. But the fact that the dosages of medications taken is reduced - that’s for sure!

But, if a person copes well with physical activity, can climb to the 3rd floor, and does not have angina pectoris or heart pain, then you can fast.
