Iftar Food Coma?

We have all been there! Making smart Iftar choices helps you maximise the benefits of Ramadan. It is not just about what you eat, but how you eat. Here is an easy guide to a nourishing and fulfilling Iftar!

Resist the urge to overindulge. Use smaller plates and savour each bite. Eating slowly helps your body recognise fullness, to prevent overeating.

Replenish lost fluids with an electrolyte drink.

Avoid sugary drinks, which can lead to energy crashes and unnecessary calories. Opt for water, unsweetened beverages, or a calming hot cup of tea.

Steer clear of fried and processed foods, which are difficult to digest. Focus on healthy fats found in nuts, seeds, and tempeh. These provide sustained energy and are beneficial for your overall health.

Iftar meals can be heavy. Consider a supplement like lecithin to aid in the breakdown of fats and toxins, helping your body utilise them for energy.
