Muslim people do not fast at night time. On average, they tend to eat much more during Ramadan what with the vast array of seasonal sweets.
The true difficulty of fasting during Ramadan is not being allowed to drink water during the day.
Not eating food for 12 hours isn't very hard at all.
My friends here have told me that the main problem is to eat enough during the night because after fasting for 18 hours your body get used to it. I assume similar to my issues eating a bkg breakfast in the morning directly after waking up.
What?! To hell with that. That's just dangerous.
Still, I don't care for dietary guidelines mandated by religious bodies.
