Many are the wrong eating and living habits that people practice during the holy month of Ramadan, because of incorrect information that was devoted and transmitted among them. These wrong practices may exacerbate the difficulties they face during fasting hours, and increase the chances of gastrointestinal disorientation, headache or even weight gain. Correcting this information will change the diet and all the harm it causes.

The error

Many believe that eating sweets on a daily basis in the blessed month of Ramadan is absolutely necessary, in order to give the body the sugar it lost during fasting hours due to the absence of meals throughout the day. And some people put sweets on the daily menu in the month of Ramadan, despite being rich in sugars, as well as fat.

Righteousness

Health and Nutrition Specialist and the Welnas by Design Foundation, Lama Al-Naeli, confirmed that sweets, especially manufactured, are not necessary for the body on a daily basis in the blessed month of Ramadan, nor are they useful at all, because they are characterized by being high calories and rich in fat, and their presence in the diet Daily will undoubtedly cause weight gain. Al-Naili pointed out that eating sweets can be replaced by eating dried or fresh fruits, and eating wet and dates, as they all contain natural sugars. The sugars that come from natural sources are better for the body than sugars that come from sweets rich in fats, white sugar, manufactured materials and preservatives. She stressed that sweets can be eaten in Ramadan, but not daily, suggesting that you eat a small piece of size once a week as a piece of kunafa the size of the palm of the hand without fingers or a piece of puree the size of a box of sulfur, or grilled and non-fried grapes.
