Which foods are preferred in the month of Ramadan?

Ramadan is a special time for meditation, self-improvement, kindness and spirituality. Fasting is one of the main pillars of the holy month. Some of the positive effects of fasting on your health and emotional well-being are: regulation of "bad" cholesterol, curb appetite, a month-long detox, and finally, better mood and mental clarity.

In addition to spiritual cleansing, fasting has a positive effect on your lifestyle and digestive system. As your body becomes accustomed to eating less, your digestive system will be able to "rest" and your stomach will gradually shrink. This reduces your appetite and the results last longer than many trendy diets.

Your body fat reserves are used up when you fast. Limiting yourself also cleanses your body of harmful toxins that can be found in fat deposits. In other words, after this month-long "repair", your body naturally gets rid of toxins.

Ways to improve your health during Ramadan

In addition to the natural benefits of Ramadan, it is important to adopt a healthy approach. For example, breaking the fast with two or three dates and warm water gives your body instant energy before the main meal. Ilgar Shamilov, a member of the Public Council under the Azerbaijan Food Safety Agency (AFSA), a well-known dietitian, recommends soup to start the iftar meal:

"Light soup is an excellent choice for the main iftar meal, because it helps to avoid gastrointestinal problems and normalize the digestive process, as we are hungry for a long time. Try to limit the intake of heavy, creamy and fried foods, as well as salty or sugary foods. Don't forget to choose brown rice, buckwheat as a side dish to leaner meats, whole grains or whole grains, as well as vegetables and greens! ”

Dietitians and gastroenterologists advise not to rush while eating and to control the volume of your portions. Sahur should be the most important meal of the day while fasting. Rahman Alakbarov, Production Director of the Khoncha Factory of the Veyseloglu Group of Companies, a member of the National Culinary Center, an international jury and confectioner, shares his recommendations:

“Balance your sahur with foods rich in vitamins and minerals such as oatmeal, cheese, fruits and vegetables. Some low-glycemic foods, including oats, bulgur, and whole grain breads, eggplant balls, and yogurt, are good choices because they release energy slowly throughout the day. Do not forget to drink plenty - water, milk, buttermilk. In general, prefer to drink light tea without water or sugar. You can also add lemon slices or fresh mint to help with cleansing and digestion. ”

Ramadan is also a chance to get rid of harmful habits such as smoking or sugar addiction. By strengthening your self-control a little, you can continue to protect yourself from addictions during and after fasting hours.
