Based on our literature survey and to the best of our knowledge, this is the first study in India that has investigated the effects of Ramadan fasting on biochemical parameters and body composition in healthy subjects, except for the study reported by Chandalia et al. (1987) on diabetic subjects . RESULTS Weight. Based on the results of a currently published meta-analysis included 21 articles, 531 men and 299 women, fasting during Ramadan results in a moderate reduction in body weight in men but not in women (−0.24, 95% confidence interval [CI] = −0.36 to −0.12; P = 0.0001 and −0.04, 95% CI = −0.20 to 0.12; P = 0.62, respectively).[] As the body submits to the rhythms of fasting during Ramadan, a series of transformations unfold. From the depths of the digestive system to the corridors of the heart, fasting emerges as a harbinger of vitality and vigor. With each passing day, the body sheds its burdens, embarking on a journey of renewal and rejuvenation. While the overall effects of Ramadan fasting on weight are now well-known, its overall effects on body composition (i.e., fat mass and fat-free mass) are not clear. Ramadan fasting could conceivably affect body composition, because it has been shown to affect physical performance or activity. In medical terms Ramadan fasting can be considered intermittent fasting, with extended periods of food and drink abstinence per day. While medical fasting itself has been considered beneficial for disease prevention and for chronic diseases [2], [3], the effects of Ramadan fasting are rather inconclusive, as studies have found positive as well as negative effects on body composition, blood Patel believes that Ramadan fasting can help the body regulate metabolism, maintain energy balance and preserve muscle mass. This is because, “Fasting alters the secretion of various hormones In this meta-analysis, we aimed to determine the effect of Ramadan fasting on weight and body composition. Methods: In May 2018, we searched six databases for publications that measured weight and body composition before and after Ramadan, and that did not attempt to influence physical activity or diet. Furthermore, Ramadan fasting decreases the inflammation, pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1b, IL-6, tumour necrosis factor a and cancer promotion. Among healthy adults, there are no adverse effects of Ramadan fasting on the brain, heart, lung, liver, kidney, haematologic, endocrine profile and cognitive functions. The beneficial effects of fasting on the human body are well known today, with studies reporting weight loss, increase in life span, decreased oxidative stress, and improvement in inflammatory markers with decreased levels of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Tumor necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α), both of which are related to adverse health conditions, for A Ramadan fast is a type of intermittent fasting, he said, "and intermittent fasting has really taken off" as a way to lose fat without losing muscle. He noted that fasting can improve insulin levels and boost human growth hormone, which helps burn fat. The Effects of Fasting on the Body: Understanding the Impact and How to Stay Healthy During Ramadan. Fasting during Ramadan is a powerful spiritual practice, but it also brings about significant changes to the body. During the daylight hours of fasting, the body relies on stored energy from carbohydrates and fat, as there is no intake of food There are different ways to approach the physical effects of fasting on the body. So, in this blog, we're looking at fasting from three different lenses; The first is the approach utilized by Tibb (natural medicine) practitioners, the second is the hour-by-hour approach, and the third is the weight loss and metabolism benefits of 30 days of The effects of diurnal Ramadan fasting on energy expenditure and substrate oxidation in healthy men.

Arab Gulf J Sci Res. (1998) 16:1–13. Mental Benefits of Ramadan. The mental benefits of fasting during Ramadan reflect a sacred transformation that occurs when the body and soul are in harmony. Fasting sharpens focus, clarifies thoughts, and heightens emotional resilience, helping Muslims navigate life’s challenges with newfound strength and peace. 1. Elevated Mood and Inner Peace Purpose: In recent decades, the interest for the effects of Ramadan fasting (RF) on health and athletic performance has substantially increased. Moreover, it is widely accepted that body composition is a crucial measure in sport settings to evaluate training programs and optimize nutrition for athletes. The main aim of the study was to investigate the effect of Ramadan fasting on body composition and the characteristics of metabolic syndrome in apparently healthy men. In a randomized design, 44 Objective This systematic review and meta-analysis assess the effects of Ramadan fasting in adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), on blood sugar factors such as hemoglobin A1C and problems caused by its lack of control such as hypoglycemia and DKA, and metabolic outcomes. Methods Electronic databases including MEDLINE, Embase, and SINOMED were searched up to February 13, 2024 Figure 2.Forest plot of the effects from a random effects and fixed-effects meta-analysis shown as standardized mean difference with 95% confidence intervals on absolute body weight (BW) for all studies, only Ramadan IF and only non-Ramadan IF studies. Moreover, most studies have examined the effect of fasting before and after this month or in short periods [8,13,17,18], and so far, no study has examined the effect of fasting after a long period of adaptation and during fasting. For this reason, this study was to evaluate the effect of fasting during RF on the last days when the body has
