Ramadan Nutrition Plan (RNP)

The 10 Most Common UNHEALTHY Eating Habits during Ramadan

1

Eating large portions during Iftar (frequently more than 1500 calories), which results in high blood sugar and weight gain

2

Eating significant amount of highly processed carbohydrates and sugar in Iftar or after Iftar, which may also cause your blood sugar to rise very high

3

Eating desserts loaded with sugar after Iftar, which leads to prolonged period of high blood sugar

4

Eating large or frequent snacks between Iftar & Suhoor, which contributes to longer periods of high blood sugar

5

Fast eating, which frequently leads to over-eating. (Satiety signal usually takes around 15-30 minutes to reach your brain from the time you start eating)

6

Early Suhoor, which may result in low blood sugar before Iftar, especially when fasting hours are longer than usual

7

Consumption of large portion of high glycemic index carbohydrates (certain types of carbohydrates that significantly raise blood sugar like sugar, potato, rice or wheat products) at Suhoor, which leads to very high blood sugar after meal

8

Frying food. It is especially worse when using tans-fat margarine or oils rich in saturated fat like palm oil and coconut oil

9

Reduction of daily activities, which may contribute to weight gain

10

Sleeping for longer hours, which may contribute to weight gain
