Eat balanced meals

In Ramadan, the iftar meal is the major cause of unbalanced diet and overeating. It’s the common thinking that you have to eat enough food which should make up for the fasting hours that you have spent without food. But that’s not the case.

During fasting, the human metabolism slows down and the energy needs of the body decrease as well. Don’t think that you have eaten nothing for all day, and eat just according to your regular diet plan. Use dates to break the fast as it provides enough energy and sugar which the body requires after a fast. One date is enough for this purpose because dates contain a high amount of sugar. Avoid the creamy dishes and appetizers that are nothing but carbohydrate packs.

Due to long fasting hours, the eating hours are quite short in the upcoming Ramadan. But this not a reason to skip the suhur meal. Skipping the suhur meal will compel you to overeat in the following iftar meal. In Suhur, limit the usage of salt in food to avoid the thirst in the fasting hours. Eat whole grain bread, eggs or cheese which are a source of protein, and yogurt. This food combination ensures the existence of a stable amount of glucose in blood and you don’t get hungry during fast.

Stay Active and do some Exercise

Don’t lay down after eating suhur and iftar. We know that it’s a tough job to walk after iftar but it will help you to burn some calories and keep you active.

Sleeping after suhur meal is common in Pakistan which makes people lazy throughout the day and increases the chances of obesity.

Don’t spend your whole day in sleep as an excuse for fasting. Try to maintain your regular activities but don’t go in front of sunlight. Spend your time in offering regular prayers and reciting the Quran as it will also help you to stay active.

More water usage in eating hours
