“In this study, I will first deal with fasting as a scientific system for maintaining the health of the body and for treating maladies of the body and psyche. Subsequently, I will speak of fasting as a practice of the Orthodox Church. I will compare it to scientific fasting with regard to their bases, goals, methods, and consequences.”
