AVOID

 

* Fried and fatty foods.

* Foods containing too much sugar.

* Over-eating especially during the meal before Dawn (sehri. or suhur)

* Too much tea during the meal before Dawn (sehri. or suhur). Tea makes you pass more urine taking with it valuable mineral salts that your body would need during the day.

* Smoking cigarettes. If you cannot give up smoking, cut down gradually starting a few weeks before Ramadan. Smoking is unhealthy and one should stop completely.

 

EAT

 

* Complex carbohydrates during the meal before Dawn (sehri. or suhur) so that the food lasts longer making you less hungry.

* Haleem is an excellent source of protein and is a slow-burning food.

* Dates are excellent source of sugar, fibre, carbohydrates, potassium and magnesium.

* Almonds are rich in protein and fibre with less fat.

* Bananas are a good source of potassium, magnesium and carbohydrates.

 

DRINK

 

* As much water or fruit juices as possible between iftar (Breaking fasting) and bedtime so that your body may adjust fluid levels in time.

 

 

Common Medical Problems

 

CONSTIPATION

Constipation can cause piles (haemorroids), fissures (painful cracks in ###### canal) and indigestion with a bloated feeling.

 

Causes: Too much refined foods, too little water and not enough fibre in the diet.

Remedy: Avoid excessive refined foods, increase water intake, use bran in baking, brown flour when making roti.

 

INDIGESTION AND WIND

Causes: Over-eating. Too much fried and fatty foods, spicy foods, and foods that produce wind e.g. eggs, cabbage, lentils, carbonated drinks like Cola also produce gas.

 

 

LETHARGY ('low blood pressure')

Excessive sweating, weakness, tiredness, lack of energy, dizziness, especially on getting up from sitting position, pale appearance and feeling faint are symptoms associated with "low blood pressure". This tends to occur towards the afternoon.

 

Causes: Too little fluid intake, decreased salt intake.

 

Remedy: Keep cool, increase fluid and salt intake.

 

Caution: Low blood pressure should be confirmed by taking a blood

pressure reading when symptoms are present. Persons with high blood pressure may need their medication adjusted during Ramadan. They should consult their

doctor.
