This is because whatever is eaten as Suhoor is what sustains throughout the day; it is important to eat filling, energizing, and wholesome foods with all the essential nutrients.
The following are foods that can be incorporated into meal plans for Suhoor:
1. Vegetables and Fruits
They help the body stay hydrated during fasting; they also contain vitamins, phytochemicals, and mineral salts that ensure a healthy life. Fruits and vegetables give the body that feeling of satiability and thus prevent indigestion and constipation. Examples are watermelon, oranges, carrots, cucumbers, etc. These fruits and vegetables could be taken in the form of salads, smoothies, etc.
2. Nuts
Incorporating nuts into meals can be very helpful. Nuts can be added as toppings to fibre meals like oats.
3. High Carbohydrates foods
High-fibre carbohydrate foods like rice, yam, and bread help sustain more prolonged energy levels that could last throughout the day. This is because they are complex sugars and usually take longer to digest.
