To ensure a healthy and balanced fast during Ramadan, here are some practical steps to maintain your energy and well-being throughout the holy month:
🕋 First: How to break your fast the right way?
✅ Start with dates and water: Dates help replenish low blood sugar, while water keeps your body hydrated.
✅ Eat a balanced meal: Make sure your meal includes proteins (like chicken or fish), healthy carbohydrates (such as brown rice or potatoes), and fiber-rich vegetables to support digestion.
✅ Avoid fried and fatty foods: These can cause digestive discomfort and increase thirst.
🥤 Second: How to stay hydrated?
💧 Drink 8–10 cups of water between Iftar and Suhoor to prevent dehydration.
🚫 Cut down on caffeinated drinks like coffee and tea, as they lead to fluid loss.
🍉 Eat water-rich fruits like watermelon and cucumber to support hydration.
⏳ Third: What is the ideal Suhoor?
🌾 Choose slow-digesting foods like oats, whole grain bread, and yogurt to sustain your energy throughout the day.
🥚 Include proteins such as eggs or cheese to reduce feelings of hunger.
🚫 Avoid sugary foods and excessive salt, as they increase thirst and dehydration.
🩺 Fourth: When should you get tested?
If you suffer from chronic conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, it’s essential to check your blood sugar, kidney function, and liver function to ensure your body is ready for fasting. Don’t hesitate to consult your doctor before Ramadan!
🌙 Take care of your health and enjoy a safe, healthy fast! 💙
