Why I Don't Like Ramadan

[@atheodorasurname6936]

I'm a non-Muslim who once fasted every day of Ramadan -- only out of curiosity to see what it was like, not from any belief in religion. Going without water was the really hard part, although mainly in the last three hours or so before sunset. I had to keep my mind off water and the much-too-slowly-moving clock, and the best way to do that was to curl up and sleep or rest while listening to music. He's right that the fast encourages laziness. It didn't make me feel "spiritual" in any way. Every day i would break the fast by first drinking glass after glass of water and then i'd eat too much because someone was giving me all the free food I could eat. It was just a personal endurance test.

From a health standpoint, ramadan "fasting" is complete and utter nonsense. Like you mentioned: Not being allowed to drink anything during the day time, especially in *hot* countries, is *very* unhealthy, it is even dangerous. Especially for people who work. You need to stay hydrated. In addition, at night, when you are allowed to eat and drink again, your metabolism slows down, your digestive system doesn`t work as properly as during the day. In other words: Fasting at day time means torture for your health and your body, feasting at night does the same because your food is processed badly. I have nothing to say against intermittent fasting, it can be very healthy. Religious fasting is Bullshit. It means nothing but following orders and rules which make NO sense.

Also, I do consume water or salt water for the electrolytes (in conjunction with an aggressive workout regime) When Ramadan rolled in, I'd tell family that I'll be having iftar in a few days and they'd freak out 😆 Screw Ramadan.

When my husband worked in a Muslim country, he used to fast during Ramadan, though he didn't have to as food was provided for the many non-Muslim workers in the compound. But while he fasted all through his 12-hr , 7 days-a week shift, his Muslim co-workers stayed home and slept through most of it. He always told me that it was all a sham. And it's true about gaining weight by the end of it. There was so much feasting, especially with delicious sweet treats, that he used to gain weight, and at least he was still working his shift - imagine the others who did nothing else but sleep and feast.

Great points made, as ever. I'm a convinced intermittent faster, put my Diabetes 2 into remission with it, but it's very important to drink plenty of water throughout a fast if it is to be effective and successful. Most of the Intermittent Fasting support groups will ban anyone who advocates dry fasting because there are real health risks connected with it. Muslims will abstain from food and drink for around 18 hours during Ramadan and so forth, but autophagy, the body's natural repair on the cellular level as a result of fasting, starts to kick in at around 20 hours. Having done it regularly for many years now I can easily fast for two periods of 36 hours each week, which it wouldn't be possible to do safely without water. So yes, fasting is great and healthy. Lots of good support for sensible intermittent fasting now, but dry fasting definitely a bad idea, and you'll be blocked from most IF groups on social media if you try to plug it.
