I think I read somewhere that one is able to eat a light snack in the morning before sunrise during Ramadan. If I remember it said that the Prophet, pbuh, ate dates and something else so he could function during the day.
Yep, you eat something before fajr it can be anything but the Prophet (sallahu alayhi wasallam) did eat dates.
The Messenger (S) said:"The best Suhoor for the believer is dates." [Abu Dawood, Al-Baihaqee and Ibn Hibbaan]
There is also a lot of blessings in suhoor (pre dawn meal) so it is highly recommended that you do it.
Salmaan (R) said that the Messenger of Allah (S) said: "Blessings are found in three things, the Group (Al-Jama'ah), Ath-thareed (a type of food) and As-Sahoor (the Pre-dawn meal)."[At-Tabaraanee, Abu Na'eem]
Abu Hurairah (R) said that the Messenger (S) of Allah (T) said: "Verily Allah placed Barakah (blessing) in the Sahoor (pre-dawn meal) and in perfect measurement (weighing)."[Ash-Shairazee]
Abdullah Ibn Haarith said that one of the Sahabah (companion) said: 'I entered the house of the Messenger (S) whilst he was taking the Sahoor (pre-dawn meal), and he (S) said: "Indeed it (the Sahoor) is blessing that Allah has given to you so do not leave it out." [An-Nasaaee and Ahmad]
Abu Sa'eed al-Khudree said that the Messenger (S) said: "Eating the Sahoor is blessed. Do not neglect it even if you take a gulp of water, because Allah and His angels invoke blessings upon those who partake in the pre-dawn meal." [Ahmad]
