Abstract

Introduction: With respect of controversies in fasting effects on serum lipids (Increase, decrease or unchanged) & low sample size or sex or disease limitation in previous studies this study was done to determine effects of Ramadan on lipid profile in healthy adults.Material & Methods: Study is semi experimental (before - after) & was done on 73 female &. 104 male volunteer religious students who were healthy and were fast at least for 25 days of Ramadan. Blood sampling was done at 7 AM (after 12 hour fasting) one week before Ramadan and one hour before sunset at 14th & 28th day of Ramadan. Lipid assay was done by enzymatic method and data analysis was done by SPSS (paired t test & ANOVA).Results: Triglyceride decreased significantly in total population 136 ± 111 to 86 ± 60 mg/ dl, P<0.001) and male and female population (P<0.001). Cholesterol decreased significantly in all samples too (193 ± 35mg/ dl to I5Q:±: 28mg/ dl, P<0.001). HDL increased at 14th day (42.2 ± 9.2 to 51.2 ± 13.7mg/ dl, P<0.001) but decreased non-significantly during the last 2 weeks of Ramadan (P<0.4). In sum HDL-c increased significantly in all groups (P<0.001). LDL-c decreased significantly too in all groups (124.5 ± 30 to 83.34 ± 23.5mg/ dl, P<0.001). In 40 of persons who had borderline (200-240 mg/ dl) total cholesterol decrease from 213±86 to 161.5±20.4 mg/dl p<0.001 and LDL -c decrease from 140.3±21.3 to 93.4±21.4mg/dl P<0.001 & HDL increased from 44.3±Eto 50.7±10j9 p<0.001.Conclusion: It shows that Ramadan fasting decreases TG. Total cholesterol and LDLc and increases HDL and in subjects who had borderline cholesterol. Islamic fasting normalizes the cholesterol and has cardia-protective effects on lipid profile.
