Wrong eating can cause problems like stomach pain, acidity, headache, or indigestion. Therefore, it is important to understand what to eat and what not to eat during the fast. In this article, we will tell you in detail which things are right to eat during the Ganesh Chaturthi fast and which things should be avoided. Bhopal resident astrologer and Vastu consultant Pandit Hitendra Kumar Sharma is giving more information on this subject.

What to eat during the Ganesh Chaturthi fast

For breakfast

Breakfast should be light and energy-giving. You can drink sweet lime or orange juice. Include an apple or papaya in breakfast, which gives energy to the body for the whole day, and the stomach remains light.

Fruit diet
It is good to eat fruits during the day. You can eat paneer, fasting vegetable, water chestnut flour roti, or a light salad. This fulfills the protein requirement and keeps the strength intact during the fast.

Sabudana Khichdi
Sabudana Khichdi is a great option to fill the stomach, but avoid eating deep-fried sabudana vadas as they are high in calories and fat.

Things to keep in mind during fasting

Use less oil and ghee.
While preparing a fruit diet, try to use less oil and ghee. Eat dry fruits, makhana, or fruits when you feel hungry. Too much fried or oily food can increase gas and acidity.

Prevention of weight gain
It is not necessary to eat sabudana or potato halwa in every fast. Instead, it is better to eat it with buckwheat or rajgira roti, gourd vegetable, and raita. This will keep the stomach full and will not increase weight.

What to avoid during fasting
1. Potato chips, fried peanuts, and deep-fried vadas
2. Excess tea or coffee
3. People with kidney disease should avoid rock salt as it contains high potassium.
4. Not eating anything for a long time during the day can cause low blood sugar. So keep eating something light at short intervals.
5. Do not eat onion, garlic, beetroot, carrot and jackfruit in the post-fast meal.
6. Avoid consuming and using Tulsi on this day.
