Fasting makes you stronger

Ramadan started this week and Nour Hadidi and CBC's Laugh Out Loud host Ali Hassan try to prove if they have the stomach for their debate on fasting.

Nour Hadidi loves living life in the fasting lane and says the benefits are endless.

Fasting is a practice in Islam where we don't eat or drink from sunrise until sunset to empathize with those who can't. Which in North America, are people with gluten allergies.- Nour Hadidi

But Ali Hassan is hungry for victory and believes his opponent has alternative motives for supporting fasting.

Be honest Nour, you call it 'fasting' but it's really just you not knowing how to cook anything for yourself, isn't it?- Ali Hassan
