We are already into the holy month of Ramadan. Let’s all start in a healthy way! Let me brief you to sail through this fasting day of ours very shortly. I would like to tell you certain

tips for the Ramadan.

First of all, a request to all of you that so who is a blessing, do not miss your Sahar at any cost.

Most of us do that because of the late dinners. So, here is an important part of our meal which gives us energy for almost a 3/4 of the fasting day. So, start here with more complex foods just simple sugars. Try to limit your sugar intake during Sahar.

Secondly, do not take too much of tea or coffee during Sahar. Also, because these things are diuretics they may cause you to urinate more times in the day. Especially the early mornings and then you lose a lot of water and dehydration may set in as it is too hot.

Eat your Sahar slowly and steadily which makes you win the race throughout the day. Do not skip it. Eat substantial food and not too much. So, let it be denser in calories and denser foods rather than being it big and more include slow-digesting foods during Sahar like rice, wheat, oats, semolina with some form of vegetables. It can be coupled up with some dried fruits and nuts to allow it to continue to give you a source of energy throughout the day.

So, it should be a compact meal. Ifthar, the feasting time of the day right let us be conscious during this time. This is the most important part of the day when most of us go wrong because we try to binge on all the fried, sugar-laden foods. In fact, we need to start very slow. You don’t need to overfeed yourself.

At iftar, get yourself a handful of dates. You can have a small amount of fruits rather than juices and break your fast. Relax, then you can finish your dinner or wholesome dinner not the fried foods.

Most of us skip the actual food during Ramadan and just feed on this fried stuff. You can taste some of them; it’s a holy month, it’s a time of feasting but don’t forget your benefits of fasting. So, treat yourself with a small amount. Have your dinner and then maybe you can go for your Taraweeh prayers. Post-Tharaweeh a small amount of nuts or fruits can be a good or yogurt can be a good form of snack. Do not overeat after your Taraweeh.

The most important part which should not be forgotten is the most forgotten nutrient or ingredient of our day. Mortal water should be consumed in enough quantities so that we maintain hydration with summers and long hours of fasting. We tend to be dehydrated. Please hydrate yourself enough and more not with sugar-laden syrups and juices and shell BOTS but with plain water.
