I don't know how true it is but I read in superfreakonomics that deafness and other disabilities are more likely among Muslims due to fasting during pregnancy in some countries.
From what I can gather Muhammad ordered everyone to fast who isn't ill or on a journey. These days lots of additional exceptions are made, like people who live in places where fasting is impossible or people who are healthy but in conditions like pregnancy where health and safety is an issue.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
