The cost of Ramadan need to be counted

    All religious have fasting discipline, but only Muslims is more demanding religion, requiring a considerable amount of time and effort to worship “Allah.” Fasting still has a negative effect on health, but still some Muslims are religiously believed that fasting can cure cancer or disease. During the lunar month of Ramadan, that is 30 days, all the believers are obligatory to fulfil duties of worship, including no food, no drink, abstaining from smoking or sexual activity. I have been informed that fasting for Muslims is intended for spiritual reasons instead of healthy advantages. It reminds us the difficult position of poverty, understand the starving and considered less advantaged.

    Even though this rule has exceptions for pregnant women, women who are nursing, the sick, the elderly and young children, there are still has higher exposure risk of health problem such as coronary heart disease, dehydration, headaches, dizziness, nausea. Many people find the challenge of going all day with no food or water. They will simply shift their eating cycle and operating hours from day time to all the night. However, consuming a chunk of meal before you sleep is not good for your metabolism or body.

    In the Muslim world, the working day is reduced on average by two hours. It is very usual that the productivity declines as the physical strain of fasting and the disruption to the flow of organizations. It is reasonable that it has negative effect on output growth. Unfortunately, most of the international Muslim organizations will take it granting because of its sense nature.

For my opinion, this restricted rule has more flaws or disadvantages.
