Muslims around the world fasting from dawn to maghrib throughout the month of Ramadan for 30 day

Every year, Muslims around the world fasting from dawn to maghrib throughout the month of Ramadan for 30 days. In the northern hemisphere of the world, Ramadan falls in the summer that makes the sun rise early and sets slower so that the fasting period reaches 18 hours more. In fact, will be close to 19 hours at the end of Ramadan later. While in Norway, the period between dawn and maghrib is about 20 hours each day so you will not drink and eat along it within 30 days. But is fasting good for your health? This is what happens to your body if you fast for 30 days. The hardest part - The early days Technically, the human body is not in a 'fasting state' until about eight hours after consuming the last meal. It is about eight hours that the intestines finish stop absorbing nutrients from food consumed. Read also: Study: Heart Failure Patient Can Live Fasting Safely, Origin ... After that then your body starts to rely on glucose stored in the liver and muscles to energize. Longer, when the glucose reserves are depleted, the body fat becomes the source of energy for humans. When the body starts to burn fat, it will encourage weight reduction, decreased cholesterol levels, and also minimize the risk of diabetes. But the drop in blood sugar levels also causes the body to weaken and lethargum so you may suffer from headaches, dizziness, nausea, and bad breath. It happens when your starvation rate is at its toughest time. Be careful with dehydration - Day 3-7 When your body starts to get used to fasting, the fat will be broken down and converted into blood sugar. Reduced fluid intake during fasting periods should be replenished at intervals between fasting because otherwise sweating alone can lead to dehydration. While the food consumed should contain levels of 'proper energy', such as carbohydrates and fats. It is also important to maintain a nutritional balance, by eating protein, salt, and of course water. Accustomed - Day 8-15 In this third stage, you can see improvement as the body begins to adjust to fasting. Dr. Razeen Mahroof - a medical consultant at Addenbrooke Hospital, Cambridge - explains there are several other advantages of fasting. "In ordinary everyday life, we often eat too many calories, which can prevent the body to perform other tasks well, such as self-healing." "It was corrected during the fasting period, by allowing the body to divert attention to other functions." "So fasting can bring good benefits to your body by facilitating self-healing and also preventing and fighting infections," added Dr. Mahroof. Detoxification - Day 16-30 In the last half of Ramadan, the body is fully adapted to the process of fasting. The large intestine, liver, kidneys, and skin undergo periods of detoxification or toxicity in the body. "For health, at this stage, the body organs should be functioning at maximum capacity Your memory and concentration may increase and you may also have more power," explains Dr. Mahroof. "Your body no longer turns to protein for energy, it happens when it's in 'hunger' and uses muscle for energy, which happens in long continuous fasts for a number of days and weeks." "Because fasting in Ramadhan lasts from dawn to maghrib, it is enough to fill our bodies with food and energy-producing liquids." So is fasting good for our body? Yes, says Dr Mahroof, but with one condition. "Fasting is good for our health because it helps us to focus on what and when we eat, a month's fasting period may be good but not sustainable."

Outside of Ramadan, he suggests a fasting episode or a 5: 2 diet (Monday-Thursday fasting) will be healthier than fasting for several months continuously. "Fasting during Ramadan, done right, will allow you to replenish energy supplies every day, which means you can lose weight without burning valuable muscle membranes."
