Abstract

Amongst the changes affecting daily habits during the month of Ramadan, we can distinctively observe the dietetic changes, either qualitatively of quantitatively. Our essential objective of this study is to evaluate the changes brought about by the fasting during Ramadan among Muslims. We analyzed the daily diet by carrying out a prompting survey among 100 volunteer Muslims during the period of Ramadan. We calculated inventory of 3 days consumed food and the preparation and quality of meals. Observing significant changes in diets during Ramadan: The result is a hyper-protein dominated by the intake of proteins (27%). As for the repartition of energy between meals, we concluded also disequilibrium by taking the most part of energy during the first meal. It would be essential to re-adjust the diet during Ramadan in order to reach the most equilibrium possible, which should be necessarily based on adequate education and adaptable nutritional information before the beginning of the month of Ramadan.
