LINK When is Ramadan in 2018? | News | Al Jazeera
One of my co-workers is a Muslim. He's a really good co-worker and he's cool. He is currently fasting during Ramadan. Which means that he can't eat from sun up to sun down. I don't see the benefits of fasting and not eating. It doesn't seem healthy to me. What is your opinion?

Sun up till sundown? That’s not hard. I thought they couldn’t eat for 40 days and 40 nights or something.

Fasting is good. Out gets you're body back on track to eat when hungry instead of just stuffing ones face whenever foods available
