Pro fasting tips to make Karwa Chauth 2022 a bit easier
New Delhi, October 11: This year, Karwa Chauth falls on October 13, and on the occasion, Hindu women are going to fast throughout the day for the good health and longevity of their husbands.
Women eat from their 'sargi' before beginning their fast. They break their fast after the moonrise by looking into their husbands' eyes and praying to the moon.
It's not easy to go through the day without a drop of water, so we've put together a list of fasting tips to make it a little easier for you.
1. Try to consume as much protein as possible before beginning your fast. Protein takes longer to digest and break down, so it keeps you fuller for longer.
2. Avoid sugary foods before beginning your fast because they will make you hungry sooner.
3. Dry fruits are a nutrient-dense option to consume before starting your fast because they boost energy storage in your body throughout the day.
4. Drink plenty of water. Drinking at least 2-3 glasses of water before you begin fasting will keep your thirst satiated for quite some time. You also need to stay hydrated throughout the day.

5. Avoid fried foods because they make you lethargic and drain your energy levels.
6. Try to have a good protein-carbohydrate balance after breaking the fast. A mixture of both will provide you with plenty of energy.
7. Avoid drinking tea or coffee directly as it may cause acidity.
8. Try to rest during the day because your energy levels will be low. You may also have headaches as a result of a dip in insulin levels caused by fasting. So, don't overload your body.
9. As you break the fast, drink at least a full glass of water or lemonade to hydrate yourself immediately.
10. Drink a soothing, calming tea, such as green tea or chamomile tea, later at night to provide your body with much-needed antioxidants.
