The month of Ramadan arrives, the Sahur activity becomes a fun and challenging part. We call it full of challenges because you have to fight sleepiness as well as cold air while eating a meal.
In order to eat the Sahur more enjoyable, it would be nice if you enjoy a warm drink. But not all drinks are good for health during fasting. Here are some warm drinks that can give a calming and healthy effect.
Ginger
One of the cheap and easy empon-empon found in Indonesia is a natural ingredient that works to give a warm and healthy effect. Unlike the chili that can give the effect of spicy and hot, ginger will give a warm effect more comfortable. Ginger contains gingerol and shogaol which make ginger function as thermogenic (increase body temperature). Eating warm ginger wedang will make your body warm and free to catch cold.
Green tea
Some studies say that tea consumption should be limited during meal because it can make a person more frequent urination and salt removal needed for a full day. If you still want to enjoy tea, choose green tea that contains higher antioxidants. Keep tea diluted and not concentrated, the more dilute the better. Be careful not to give too much sugar.
Low Fat Milk
If you do not have digestive problems related to milk, then the choice of enjoying a glass of low fat warm milk can make your meal warm. Milk contains dehydration dehydration, so you will be more protected from dehydration for a full day. In addition, the nutrient content of milk will help you stay fit until the time of breaking the fast.
Warm water
The best drink is water. Remember, you still need at least 8 glasses of water during fasting. The amount will be more if your activities a lot. If you feel your stomach is full and lazy to make the drink that we have mentioned above, warm water will make your stomach comfortable. Keep your warm water temperature fitting, not too hot, because it will make the tongue and throat burning.
