Fasting and Its Benefits

Fasting, feasting and faith. Indeed, every Ramadhan, our Muslim friends observe a month-long fast, a time for spiritual reflection, self-improvement and increased devotion. Although a religious practice, complete abstinence from food and drink throughout the day is also proven to play a role in maintaining health. But with such practice, a new trend arises: Ramadhan bazaars and buffet spreads, often with unhealthy food. Dato’ Dr Nik Ritza Kosai Nik Mahmood, a General Surgery Consultant speaks about fasting and its benefits to your health -- if you do it right.
