4 tips for health and energy during fasting

Health experts recommend balanced eating patterns to help the body stay energized during fasting days.

Suhoor (before fasting):

Use whole grains, protein, and healthy fats for sustained energy. This could be, for example, eggs with whole-grain bread, oatmeal with yogurt, and fruit. Also include water (about 500-700 ml) for good hydration.

Iftar (after fasting):

Start with dates, water, and fruit to replenish your energy. Then eat a balanced meal with complex carbohydrates, protein, and plenty of vegetables. Save fried foods for after prayer to control portions.

Hydration:

Avoid processed foods and coffee in the evening, as they can disrupt sleep and cause fatigue. Lack of hydration during non-fasting periods can cause dizziness or fatigue during the day.

Portions and selected foods:

Control portions and include foods with good fiber and protein to aid digestion and energy during long fasts. /CNA
