What foods should one eat when fasting?

Question

I need foods i can eat before i fast that will make me feel fuller and have more energy during the day.Also what foods to eat when breaking the fast that will help me out?

Answer 1

i always eat alot of food  

Answer 2

Same as distance runners PASTA.

Answer 3

carbs. whole grain has more fiber, which makes it more filling: bread, pasta, cereal, oatmeal, rice.

Answer 4

Foods high in fiber can help you feel full for a while until your body digests it and your stomach is empty.

If you can take supplements while you are fasting, you might want to look into trying pectin for fullness and spirulina for energy.

When you break a fast, you should introduce foods slowly. Tea with crackers or Bland, watery veggie soup is good with crackers.

There are books on fasting, perhaps you should read up on it before you begin.  Fasting can be beneficial to your body, but it can be harmful just the same.

Answer 5

Eat things with pure energy in them.

Answer 6

well - fasting is not eating foods - it lets your digestive system rest

so some do water only for a day or two

some do a juice fast - if you do not have a juicer - V8 with low sodium is good

I actually went 9 days and was on a spiritual 'high'

I quit to eat at a 'carry in' dinner at church - and our ladies

know how to cook - - - - - but nothing tasted good

so when you come off your fast - go easy - like jello

or broth soup - - got to get started up again -

and great probiotics like yogurt with active cultures

to get the right stuff in control of your digestive system

new diet - breakfast like a Queen/King

lunch like a Princess/Prince

dinner like a pauper -

so for breakfast  - an egg with breakfast meat

fruit for break - (away from the main meal)

5 veggies during the day - - (or fruits)

and drink your water!

all the best
