Ramadan, fasting, MFP, and you. A guide

Instead of broccoli, for carbs and protein consider rice and bread and beans

Complex carbohydrates are foods that help release energy slowly during the long hours of fasting. They are found in foods such as barley, wheat, oats, millet, semolina, beans, lentils, wholemeal flour and basmati rice.
Fibre-rich foods are also digested slowly and include bran, cereals, whole wheat, grains and seeds, potatoes with the skin on, vegetables such as green beans, and almost all fruit, including apricots, prunes and figs.

Foods to avoid are the fast-burning, heavily processed foods that contain refined carbohydrates (sugar and white flour), as well as fatty food (such as cakes, biscuits, chocolates and sweets such as Indian mithai).

Hope your Ramadan is going well!
My stomach gets upset, because I'm eating the food in little time. Plus running after 25 minutes hurts my stomach. Buy I'll keep this going!

This year's Ramadhan is coming up FAST (pun intended hehe). This article is a great read. So as my first post ever here, I will bump this up to the top ;-)
