Utahns who practice intermittent fasting — as prescribed by Latter-day Saints — have potentially been unknowingly lowering their risk of suffering severe effects from COVID-19 infection.
Intermountain Healthcare reports that many who intermittently fast have been inadvertently protecting themselves.
“People who report in these studies that they fast routinely ... tend to be members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,” said Dr. Benjamin Horne, director of cardiovascular and genetic epidemiology at Intermountain Healthcare. The average person in the study fasts for 24 hours once a month, and they’ve been doing it, on average, for just over 40 years. Members of the LDS Church are called upon to fast the first Sunday of each month, going without food and drink for two consecutive meals.
