Clinical Nutrition Specialist, dr. Putri Sakti, M.Gizi, Sp.GK said that fasting Muslims are expected to always maintain their health by consuming appropriate fluids during sahur and iftar.
“Usually when I wake up I immediately drink a glass of water. Later, after sahur, drink another glass. Now before the imsak or the dawn call to prayer, drink another glass of water. So we don’t realize we have drunk three glasses, “said in the Shopee 4.4 Talk event Welcoming Ramadan Sale , Tuesday (29/3/2022).
“At the time of the Maghrib call to prayer, do not rush to eat fried foods or dates. Let’s drink a glass of water first,” ordered dr. Holy Princess again.
