I came across some food tips and thought i’d share, some memebrs may feel/want to try implement during the month of ramadhan.

• Replace coffee with herbal and caffeine-free teas 1-2 weeks before Ramadan to avoid headaches from caffeine withdrawal
• Avoid over-eating at Sohour, and try to consume foods such as dates, bananas and almonds as they are rich in fiber, potassium, magnesium and carbohydrates.
• Drink as much water or fruit juice as possible between Iftar and bedtime, so that your body has time to adjust fluid levels.
• Eat well-balanced meals and avoid fried foods as they cause indigestion, heartburn and weight problems
• During Ramadan, avoid fast-burning foods containing sugar and white flour. Instead, consume slow-burning foods that contain grains and seeds

Yes…I know most of these and every year I say…I’m gonna do the above **this year **and every year I conveniently forget:( esp the caffeine withdrawal part…Where’s my cup of masala chai?
