The effect of ramadan fasting on some basic components of blood and anthropometric parameters among female students of the college of sports sciences at the university of Jeddah
Abstract
This study aims to highlight the influence of fasting on variations in anthropometric and biochemical parameters among young female students at the University of Jeddah. Twenty-four female students aged 20 to 26 consented to participate in our study. They were tested twice: during and after the month of fasting. For this, we took blood samples and anthropometric measurements. The analysis and interpretation of the results showed no significant change in anthropometric parameters despite the variations observed after the fasting month (P>0.05). However, we could mention substantial increases in the levels of biochemical parameters testifying to a phenomenon of organism adaptation after a month of fasting (P<0.05). Fasting has no adverse effect on the various parameters studied. Thus, fasting appears to be a beneficial means for the health of the human body.
