Ramadan is the holy month of devotion, prayer, self-reflection and growth. However, it is also a month of extreme self-control with 30 days of fasting at a stretch. Thus, what we choose to eat during Iftar and Sehri can have major implications on our body and energy levels. The idea is to stick to a minimalistic healthy diet instead of giving in to temptation and indulging in excessive fried food or beverages with high-levels of sugar, before you begin your fast or break it.
Since Sehri or Suhur is the first meal consumed early in the morning before the main fasting begins, it is essential that the food consumed is nutritious and keeps you feeling full for a longer period of time. That's why, we suggest Keventer Banana as a 'must-add' to your pre-dawn diet. Here are 4 reasons why:
#1: It's Fibre-Rich: Soluble fibres turn into a gel-like form upon reaching the stomach, and slow down digestion. This helps in keeping cholesterol and blood sugar levels low, giving you ample of energy throughout the day. The banana lands up being a wonder-fruit in this case. Despite their sugar content, bananas are so rich in fibres such as pectin that they not only keep you energized but also keep your gut in good health during the entire fasting season.
#2: Has Good Carbs: Bananas are a great source of resistant starch. Now what is a resistant starch? Resistant starch is a great carbohydrate that can improve your body's ability to react to insulin. The best part is, instead of getting digested in the small intestines, it collects in the large intestines, ferments and produces good gut bacteria. This means that you will be left feeling fuller despite consuming less food. Resistant starch can also aid in easing your digestive system after fasting.
#3: Comes with Anti-Bloating Properties: Fasting can cause severe bloating in some people. However, here again, our wonder-fruit comes to the rescue! There's ample evidence that bananas can prevent the accumulation of gas in the stomach and the retention of water, thereby preventing bloating.
#4: It's Pottasium-Rich: The potassium in bananas plays a vital role in reducing your thirst and keeping you hydrated for a much longer period of time. This potassium also helps your muscles work better keeping lethargy, caused due to fasting, at bay.
As the month of Ramadan sets in, do take care of yourself and your health without any compromises. Add Keventer Bananas to your Sehri meal and enjoy the goodness of this fruit to the fullest. Ramadan Mubarak!
