So you're really happy to go without water for over 15 hours during the height of summer?
I'd have a nasty headache at the end of that and guess what... that headache is telling you you're de-hydrated which is bad for you...
Especially bad when you consider this religion is most prevelent in hot countries (much warmer than uk)... people torturing themselves in the name of an imaginary friend.
The person (yes, person, not deity) who thought it up in the first place must have been a sadist...
You will tend to find that after 1400 years, the followers of Islam have had quite extensive experience in fasting. Also, most will just sack up and get on with it.
In case you are not aware, where health is a concern e.g. feeling faint, dizzy, anything threatening tbh, you are permitted to immediately eat.
