MAKANAN YANG PERLU DI BATASI SAAT SAHUR

Hermina's Friends The food consumed during sahur greatly affects the strength of the body during fasting. Fasting is not just about limiting food, but you must still consider what is consumed so that the body stays fit but does not get hungry quickly. It is recommended to eat nutritious foods and foods that contain lots of fiber during fasting so that you feel full longer. But there are also some foods that should be limited.

Here are foods that need to be limited during sahur:

Simple carbohydrates: foods made from flour such as bread, noodles or pasta have very low fiber and are quickly digested so that we quickly feel hungry again. The type of simple carbohydrates also makes us feel weak quickly because they only provide energy for a short time compared to complex carbohydrates.
High-salt foods: consuming salty foods or foods that contain high salt can disrupt the body's ability to absorb fluids and also increase thirst. Foods high in salt also increase the risk of blood pressure or hypertension.
Spicy and sour foods: sahur with spicy and sour foods can increase the risk of stomach disorders such as pain, nausea, and diarrhea, especially in people who already have a history of stomach disease.
Foods that can cause gas: beans, crunchy vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli, cabbage or cauliflower can make the stomach feel bloated and gassy for some people, thus disrupting the fast all day.
Caffeinated drinks: consuming too many caffeinated drinks such as coffee, green tea, dark chocolate, or energy drinks during sahur can cause the diuresis process to increase so that we urinate more often and make us feel thirstier because the body sends signals to replace the large amount of water that comes out.
Well, those are some foods that need to be limited, Not only when fasting, the foods above should also be avoided or reduced on normal days. Given the many bad effects that the body will receive if consumed excessively. It is better to eat more vegetables and fruits which clearly have many benefits for the body.
