S2E2: The Metabolism of Fasting in Ramadan
Show Notes

Ever wonder how your fasts impact your metabolism? Well Dua and Afroze can help! This week on Think Like a Lady Podcast, we discuss the 4 stages of fasting (otherwise known as the 4 states of fasting), some crucial hormones that come into play during your fast over the course of 30 days such as leptin, ghrelin, insulin and glucagon. We provide some insight on how your macronutrient ratios in your meals impact your fasts and how that can either lead to weight gain or weight loss. Dua and Afroze also discuss how discipline can be achieved in Ramadan when it comes to not only your health and nutrition, but also your spirituality and your daily habits. 

Ramadan Mubarak Everyone!
