1. Foods rich in protein

Protein is an important nutritional component because it helps build and maintain muscle mass, but more importantly, during Ramadan, it helps you feel full longer after eating. Adding protein to suhoor ensures that you feel full for a longer period of time while fasting.

Examples of protein foods include:

Examples of whole grain carbohydrates:

– Whole grain bread

Whole grain pie

– oatmeal

– Quinoa

– barley

3. Healthy fats

Healthy fats help you feel full throughout the day and are an important part of a balanced diet.

Healthy fats can be obtained from the following foods:

– avocado

Peanut butter

Nuts and seeds

Linen

4. Add fruits/vegetables to every suhoor

Fruits and vegetables are high in fiber and contain many vitamins and minerals. Some fruits and vegetables are also high in water, which helps keep the body hydrated during fasting.

Among the best options for high water fruits and vegetables are:

– Watermelon

– strawberry

– Option

– Lettuce

5. Make water a priority

To avoid dehydration while fasting, it is important to make sure you drink enough water during suhoor.
