Choose for a sattvic (pure) diet during the time of fasting, encouraging the consumption of fruits, nuts, milk, yogurt, and fresh vegetables. Stay clear of spicy, oily, and heavy foods at the time of this period to encourage a sense of purity and lightness. Assuring systematic hydration is imperative, specifically when fasting. Keep your energy levels high and resist from dehydration by drinking ample quantities of water, coconut water, and herbal teas throughout the fasting duration.
