Both Ramadan and non-Ramadan intermittent fasting are effective on fat mass and body weight losses. Fat mass loss is more pronounced with non-Ramadan intermittent fasting and this type of intermittent fasting, combined with exercise training, leads to higher decreases in body mass index. Stress-responsive signaling pathways (e.g., FOXO and AMPK) are activated by fasting, resulting in the protection from cell damage and inhibition of cell proliferation. An additional mechanism of intermittent fasting is the metabolic switch between fed and fasting states. Intermittent fasting is different from Ramadan in several ways. Firstly, intermittent fasting is not a religious practice and anyone can do it regardless of their beliefs. Additionally, with intermittent fasting, the time spent fasting is usually much shorter than in Ramadan. Intermittent fasting (IF) has gained popularity for body-composition improvement purposes. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to summarize the effects of Ramadan vs. non-Ramadan IF on parameters of body composition. 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. According to Islamic law, during the days of Ramadan, healthy adults must fast at certain times of the day, while fasting is not required for premature children, the elderly, the sick, and pregnant and lactating women (6) #42; (7) #32. Ramadan Fasting Spiritual Benefits. During Ramadan, Muslims are expected to practice discipline, humility, and spiritual reflection. Muslims experience Ramadan in different seasons throughout the course of their lives because Ramadan shifts approximately 11 days earlier each year on a solar-based calendar. Intermittent fasting during Ramadan is observed by more than 1.5 billion Muslims throughout the world and is currently considered one of the most extensively studied forms of religious fasting 15. Ramadan intermittent fasting (RIF) describes fasting between dawn and sunset during the Islamic month of Ramadan. It is one of the five pillars of Islam, observed by more than 90% of the approximately 2 billion Muslims worldwide. 1 During Ramadan, Muslim adults and children who have reached puberty ordinarily have a pre-dawn meal (Suhoor) and break their fast with a meal at sunset (Iftar Ramadan vs Intermittent Fasting. Ramadan and intermittent fasting may sound similar to non-Muslims, but they are very different. Fasting in Ramadan is a religious practice for Muslims. We fast from dawn until sunset for an entire month. This fasting is a form of worship because we are following God’s commandments. Background Muslims around the world practice intermittent fasting during the month of Ramadan each year. We hypothesized that daily physical activity could be reduced among Muslims due to the inability to refuel and rehydrate in the fasting state. Methods A cohort study design among adults registered with national physical activity community program. Data from a pedometer-based community What are the differences between intermittent fasting and fasting during the holy month of Ramadan?Dr.Surasit Saleh Issarachai, from Bumrungrad International Background: Ramadan Intermittent fasting (RIF) exerts beneficial metabolic effects and improves gastrointestinal motility. However, a comparison between RIF and the traditional 16-hours intermittent fasting (16IF), a strategy for weight loss, is lacking. Abstract. Background and objectives: Ramadan intermittent fasting (RIF) is a monthlong practice in which Muslims fast during the whole day from sunrise to sunset. During this month, fasting people change their dietary behavior and alter their eating hours from day to night. Summarily, no definitive conclusion about the impact of Ramadan intermittent fasting on oxidative stress can be formulated. Therefore, large, well-designed studies, which control for various confounding factors are required to assess the influence of Ramadan diurnal intermittent fasting on markers of cardiometabolic risk and disorders. No, Ramadan fasting is not intermittent fasting. While Ramadan fasting involves abstaining from food and drink for a specific period (dawn to sunset), it doesn’t strictly fall under the category of intermittent fasting as practiced in some health and wellness regimens. Intermittent fasting typically involves alternating cycles of eating and
