In the Orthodox Christian tradition, this period is known as Great Lent, culminating in Easter on April 12, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"239\" data-end=\"468\">While rooted in spiritual practice, this seasonal shift toward plant-based eating also offers meaningful health benefits. When approached mindfully, fasting can become a gentle reset for digestion, metabolism, and overall wellbeing \u2014 an opportunity to nourish the body with cleaner, lighter foods.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"470\" data-end=\"473\" \/>\n<h2 data-start=\"475\" data-end=\"531\">What Happens to the Body During these 40 Days?<\/h2>\n<h3 data-start=\"533\" data-end=\"581\">1. Digestive Relief &amp; Reset<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"583\" data-end=\"727\">Animal products \u2014 especially red meat and heavy dairy \u2014 can be harder to digest for many people.
