How To Avail The Health Benefits Of Ramzan

By Super

Ramadan is a time when our stomach and other body organs such as liver and kidneys get a break. These organs detoxify themselves and all the accumulated toxins are removed from kidneys, liver and stomach during the holy month of Ramadan.

Why Dates Should Be Eaten During Ramadan

Ramadan not only purifies our soul but also the body. We also get a golden opportunity to lose weight and become healthy (however don't fast for weight loss as this will nullify your fast). During Ramadan there is an overall body repairing going on and you can add an extra effect to it by following simple tips during Ramadan.

Some people eat more unhealthy foods (oily food, junk food and processed food) at the time of iftaar. This may not help you to avail the health benefits of Ramadan. To lose weight and make your body healthy during this holy month, you need to follow some do's and dont's during the month of Ramadan.

Eat In Breaks

Eat In Breaks

At the time of iftar, avoid eating all the food together. Have dates and fruits first and then have two glasses of water. Then give a break as your mind takes time to signal your stomach that it is full. Later after a couple of hours have your dinner.

Try To Eat More In Sohur Than In Iftar

This is also a difficult job to do as during iftar time you are more hungry and at sohur there is no appetite at all. However, if you will control eating at iftaar time, you will feel hungry at sohur.

Have You Dinner Early

After breaking your fast don't eat your dinner too late. Having a heavy dinner late at night causes weight gain and you don't feel to eat anything at sohur.

Drink A Lot Of Water
