Not only the choice of foods that need to be considered at dawn, but also drinks. Swiss medical experts, Dr U Barsilus, warned that reducing the intake of tea at dawn.

As quoted from the page of Arab News, he said that tea is diurektika, so that will make people more frequent urination. “This is unfortunate because the salts and minerals needed by the body when fasting go wasted, whereas during fasting there is no liquid that comes in,” he said.

But, that does not mean he banned the consumption of hot tea while fasting. Only, do not be too much. Concentrations of tea should also be noted. Better water consumption multiplied by prime condition during Ramadan.

In addition to tea, he also advised those who fasted to avoid fatty foods, fried foods, and foods containing too much sugar. Servings to eat at meal is also a concern. “Too much to eat when the meal should be avoided,” he said.

He suggested that the consumption of complex carbohydrates at dawn. Complex carbohydrates helps keep the energy needs during fasting, because of its more slowly broken down into blood sugar. Ideal carbohydrate meal menu including brown rice, oatmeal, wheat bread, sweet potatoes, corn, or cassava.

During the period of breaking into the meal, multiply drinking water and fruit juices. And do not forget vegetables and fruit to maximize the detoxification process. Because, instead of fasting gives the body a chance out toxins through the bloodstream, pores and other disposal organs.
