Ramadan lasts between 29 and 30 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"style-scope yt-formatted-string\" dir=\"auto\">During Ramadan, you\u2019re required to not eat or drink anything from just before sunrise to just after sunset. This is a dry fast, which means you\u2019re not drinking any water.\u00a0 What you eat before and after you fast is going to make or break your success. Having junk food or refined carbohydrates before and after your fast could inhibit some of the effects you could achieve from fasting. However, low-carb, keto-friendly foods may be much more beneficial to have during your meals. Ketones are even anti-microbial. Benefits of fasting: \u2022 Decreased cytokines \u2022 Increased macrophages\u00a0 \u2022 Increase the microbiome\u00a0 \u2022 Increased resistance to stress \u2022 Decrease in oxidative stress\u00a0 \u2022 Increased autophagy and xenophagy\u00a0 Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 53 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis &amp; Intermittent Fasting.
