During Ramadan, we need to optimize our nutritional levels so green vegetables are advisable. Colourful salads are always healthier because they contain many different kinds of nutrients. The iftar meal should contain healthy, complex carbohydrates. Healthy, complete proteins such as beef, milk, yogurt, eggs, cheese, fish, and poultry contain a variety of amino acids and are critical to maintaining and producing muscle mass.
Rushing through meals is strictly told to avoid since it can lead to stomach issues. Once its Iftar often the far is broken with excessive eating and drinking at once which may possibly lead to discomfort and other gastric problems. It is advisable to slowly eat smaller portions to prevent weight gain. In general, you don’t want to go over the amount you would normally consume for a typical lunch or dinner.
