An Ideal Iftar
« on: August 02, 2011, 03:33:28 PM »
There is no ideal Iftar, but try these tips for the best ways to break your fast. Start with:

•three dates and juice (good for bringing your sugar levels back to normal)


•semi-skimmed milk


•clear-based soup
Then eat a well-balanced meal that may include:

•salad as a starter


•protein from chicken, meat or fish, or lentils, chickpeas or beans


•complex carbohydrates from brown rice, wholemeal pasta and wholewheat bread


•plenty of vegetables
Try not to eat high-fat meals. These will fill you up, but give you poor nutrients, and possibly indigestion, too.
