One of the odd strategies of Ramadan is this bulk-eating session after the sun goes down. These dinners end up being a massive deal and a guy will eat twice as much as he’d typically eat. On top of that....figure up dehydration occurring, and the same guy will gulp down three or four times the normal amount of water....to replenish himself.

I’m in the middle of class with a Muslim, and over the past week or two....with a heat wave in effect....you can tell this guy is really suffering by the mid-day point. We aren’t in an AC-cooled room...so he’s bulking up at sun-up with tons of water, but by noon....he’s in a fairly bad condition.

I question the logic of this practice....you are harming your kidneys big-time, and doing this over and over each year....I don’t see how a guy can get past his fifties unless he’s cheating on the situation.

“.....I don’t see how a guy can get past his fifties unless he’s cheating on the situation.”

Are you worried?
