People have different habits regarding fasting. Some people eat a lot of food a day before the fast so that the feeling of hunger is less the next day. At the same time, some people eat fruits repeatedly on the day of fasting. But is this method correct?
Both Ayurveda and modern nutrition science tell that the real purpose of fasting is to give rest to the body and detox the digestive system. Eating more than necessary before fasting puts additional burden on the stomach, which can cause problems like heaviness, gas and indigestion by the next morning.
Similarly, eating something repeatedly during fasting is also against the basic spirit of fasting. Fruit diet does not mean that you keep eating something or the other throughout the day, but fruits, dry fruits or milk should be taken in limited and balanced quantities for the necessary energy.
Experts believe that if you are healthy, then it is enough to eat light fruits only once on the day of fasting. This also gives energy to the body and rest to the digestive system. Therefore, do not consider fasting as just a religious ritual, but adopt it as a healthy practice. Eat light, easily digestible food before the fast and eat moderate fruits on the day of the fast. This is the balance of the real fast.
