Feeling hungry or thirsty during fasting is normal, especially in the first few days of Ramadan. Managing these sensations effectively helps you stay focused and maintain energy. Eating a nutritious suhoor with protein, complex carbohydrates, and fiber slows digestion and keeps you full longer.
During the day, staying occupied with work, prayer, or reading the Quran can help divert attention from hunger and thirst.
- Good to Know
Drinking plenty of water during non-fasting hours is essential to prevent dehydration. Avoid sugary or salty foods at suhoor, as they can increase thirst and fatigue during the day. Mental focus and spiritual reflection also help reduce the awareness of hunger.
- ☕ Tips for Today
- Include fiber-rich foods like fruits, oats, or vegetables in suhoor.
- Drink sufficient water during the night to stay hydrated.
- Keep busy with prayer, Quran reading, or light tasks to stay distracted.
- Avoid caffeine or salty foods that can increase thirst.
