Essential Nutrition for Suhoor and Iftar

Are You Fasting the Right Way or Just Starving Yourself?

Feeling weak, dizzy, or drained while fasting? It’s not just hunger—it’s poor nutrition. Fasting isn’t about avoiding food; it’s about eating wisely to stay energized and healthy.

For Suhoor (pre-dawn meal):
✔ Choose slow-digesting foods like oats, whole wheat bread, and brown rice.
✔ Add proteins (eggs, beans, yogurt) and healthy fats (avocados, nuts) for lasting energy.
✔ Stay hydrated with water-rich foods like cucumbers and watermelon.
✖ Avoid sugary cereals, fried foods, and too much tea or coffee—they cause energy crashes.

For Iftar (breaking the fast):
✔ Start with water and dates to restore energy gently.
✔ Eat light soups or fruits before heavier meals.
✔ Include lean proteins (chicken, fish, beans) and vegetables for balance.
✖ Don’t overeat—rushing your meals leads to bloating and fatigue.

Fasting should refresh you, not drain you. Eat smart, and let your body work with you, not against you. Are you ready to fast wisely this Ramadan?
