He is downvoted because his comment consists of two phrases that are both wrong. First:
"Forget the study", he is basically suggesting we should forego science, human kinds only tool to ascertain and record observable truths about the universe we live in.
"people belonging to Jainism know this for centuries", he is suggesting that some people have been aware of white blood cells and their regenerative properties for centuries. This is plain false.
Jainist people might have discovered fasting has positive effects, this is not special at all, almost all religions and belief systems have fasting traditions and attribute positive effects on health to them.
Why would've scientists even bothered to research in this direction if they didn't believe there was something interesting going on there?
