Sahur is a very important meal time to maintain stamina throughout the day. It is recommended to consume complex carbohydrates such as red rice, oatmeal, or wheat bread.

Enough water to prevent dehydration, at least 2-3 glasses at dawn.

The public is also advised to avoid foods that are too salty or excessive sweet because they can cause dehydration and drop in blood sugar spikes.

2. Break Fasting: Consumption Gradually

Breaking the fast with healthy food is very important so that the body is not surprised after a day of fasting. Ideally, breaking the fast begins with water and dates, which provide fast energy and help the body be hydrated again.

Vinarmin from LIGHTmeal, a refreshing and antioxidant-rich herbal drink containing monkfruit and curcumin, can be used as a substitute for low-calorie and low-smooth silt and can be combined with other ingredients such as cincau or fruits.

Eat the main food gradually, by eating nutritious food which includes healthy protein, complex carbohydrates, and vegetables.

Avoid oily and fried foods, because they can slow down metabolism and cause digestive disorders.

3. Eating After Tarawih

If you still feel hungry after tarawih and have not eaten heavy food before, it is advisable to eat low-calorie foods.

LIGHTmeal Zero Mie can be a dinner with additional chicken and vegetable protein in dishes, with only 25 calories per dish, no need to worry about over-calories when consuming Zero Mie.

4. Avoid Oily And Cooking Foods

Of course, solids, oily and fried dishes are quite tempting when breaking the fast, but have the risk of slowing down metabolism and causing digestive problems and worsening sleep quality.

To prevent constipation while fasting, you can consume high-fiber drinks to meet daily fiber needs during fasting, such as LW12 Litofybe, because it is able to detoxify excess fats and carbos from high-fat and carbohydrate foods such as fried foods.
