What prolonged fasting can do to the human body | Explained
Sonam Wangchuk's indefinite fast has raised health concerns as he enters the 19th day, losing over 9 kg, with blood sugar at 80 mg/dL and blood pressure at 105/61 mm/Hg. Experts warn that prolonged fasting can lead to significant health changes, including the loss of lean mass and muscle proteins, particularly in individuals with existing health risks. The central government has yet to engage with the protests organized by the Cockroach Janata Party, which Wangchuk supports.
