Eating lean foods, a person will not feel weakened, since such food fully satisfies the needs of the body. A person adheres to the restrictions while fasting, and feels cheerful and light. A person who adheres to the restrictions during fasting feels cheerful and light, and not weak and drained, as some believe. Many people follow a similar diet all their lives and feel very good about it. In order for the lean food to be tasty and look beautiful on the table, we have created this section on the site.

It is important to know the history of fasting and the importance of lean cuisine in Russia.

• Great Lent begins 49 days before Easter.
• His goal is to prepare for Easter within 7 weeks.
• The first 40 days are considered to be a type that Jesus fasted in the wilderness for 40 days after his baptism.
• Subsequent: 1 day is Lazarev Saturday, the second day is Palm Sunday and Holy Week - the final 6 days.
• The last week is the most important, as it helps to refresh the memory of the last week of our Lord's life. These are the resurrection of Lazarus, the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on the donkey and the Last Supper and the sermons of Jesus.

A properly balanced diet helps a person to contain aggression. By following all the rules of fasting correctly, it is easier to fulfill the spiritual precepts associated with fasting. All this will be well reflected in all areas of a person's life. Priest Alexander Ilyaschenko spoke well on this occasion: “No matter how important fasting is, it must be observed in such a way that it does not harm physical health, since a physically weakened person is inclined to show bad traits and aggression, and this, in turn, can spoil him. relationships with people ".
