How to Eat During Ramadan?




KEY TO PRODUCTIVE RAMADANSPIRITUAL ELEMENTS• Seek the Barakah in Your Food• Abu Hurayrah may Allaah be pleased with him

is that a man used to eat much, but when he embraced Islam, he started eating less. That was mentioned to the Prophet , who then said, "A believer eats in one intestine (is satisfied with a little food) and a non-believer eats in seven intestines (eats much).” (Sahih Bukhari)

• The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The food of one person is enough for two, and the food of two people is enough for four, and the food of four people is enough for eight.” (Sahih Muslim)

NUTRITION

KEY TO PRODUCTIVE RAMADAN

• IT’S NOT ABOUT THE CALORIES• FOODS TO AVOID

• Fried Foods• Refined Carbohydrates• Foods with added Sugar• “Comfort foods”

• FOODS TO EAT• Fruits & vegetables• Protein to Carbohydrates ratio (1:1 or less)• Slow burning energy foods (low glycemic index)

NUTRITION

DESIGN YOUR MEALS FOR BETTER PRODUCTIVITY• HOT SELF VS. COLD SELF

• Planning in advance avoid tempting last-minute decisions• SET BETTER DEFAULTS

• Plan your Iftar/Suhoor meals in advance • Buy groceries aligned to your meals• Organize your foods in the kitchen and pantry• Put fruits and vegetables at eye level (hide non-healthy options)

• IFTAR PARTIES• Set an example• Treat non-healthy foods as “allergies”• Explain your dietary options in advance (bring your own meals)• If all else fails, eat small amounts (seek the Barakah of the gathering)
