Many experience headaches during Ramadan fasting, even without hunger or thirst. Common causes include sleep deprivation, low blood pressure, caffeine withdrawal, dehydration, and metabolic changes. To prevent headaches, stay hydrated by drinking water between Iftar and Suhoor, limit salty foods, and maintain a consistent sleep schedule. Reduce screen time and try gentle exercises like neck stretches. Warm showers can also provide relief. Adjusting diet, hydration, and sleep can effectively manage fasting headaches, ensuring a comfortable Ramadan.

For Suhoor, eat oats, yogurt, and dates to stay energized and hydrated. Drink plenty of water (half your body weight in ounces) between Iftar and Suhoor to prevent dehydration. Engage in light exercise (15-25 minutes)…
