With the holy month of Ramadan is less than a week away, people of all ages are prepping up to make fasting as healthy and as spiritual as possible.
People who observe fast during Ramadan have quite a few doubts about what and how much they should be eating at their age, a scenario which is especially true in the case of teenagers.
This is why we decided to answer some of the questions and clear the air on how the teenagers should be fasting, their nutritional requirement, the food consumption and how it all can be made easy for them.
What is it that teenagers (13-19/20) should eat for Suhoor and why?
Foods to Eat During Suhoor
Protein Rich Food: Eggs are high in proteins and most nutritious. They not only help you to stay fuller, but can be made in several ways to suit your taste buds.
Fibre Rich Food: Oat meal is rich in fibre and a perfect meal your body needs during Suhoor. Soluble fibre turns to gel in the stomach and slows digestion. This helps to keep you feeling full for a long time and is good to keep you energised throughout your fast.
Calcium and Vitamin Rich Food: Dairy products are a great source of nutrition. Opt for a yoghurt smoothie or choose a vanilla and honey milk shake to stay full and hydrated throughout the day.
What should be on the menu for them in Iftar?
Iftar 7 pm | 1-3 dates 1 cup low fat milk or Laban 1 cup light soup (non-creamy) |
Then wait for 10 minutes (can take advantage of this time to go for prayers) This period will help the brain to develop the feeling of satiety | |
Main course | 1 cup of rice or macaroni 90 g grilled fish or grilled chicken 1 cup cooked vegetables or veg salona (beans, cauliflower, carrot, Broccoli, cabbage, marrow) 1 cup green salad |
Snack (after prayer) | 1 medium fruit +1 cup low fat yogurt Or Medium Fruit (like 1 apple or 2 slices pineapple or 6 pieces strawberry or 1 pear or 1 cup watermelon Or 2 small pieces of sambosa or qatayef (in oven) |
