Is it really fasting, if it includes sleeping? It's basically just skipping breakfast (and not having brunch). Or not eating 4 hours before you go to bed. Or two hours either side.

Sorry to poke fun, but you're asking if sleeping counts as fasting and then missing how the traditional first meal of the day after sleeping is literally called "break fast"?

True, I don't even think of it that way since it's not called that in my native language. Frokost, just means early meal.
