Summers are here and with the change in season, the time has come to take care of your health and skin. It is recommended&nbsp; to consume water-rich food like cucumber. Cucumber has several benefits, not only for health but also for skin.&nbsp;
Cucumber consists of 95 per cent water, so it helps fulfil the requirement of water in our body. It is also rich in fibre, magnesium and potassium, due to which one's blood pressure remains under control.
Moreover, cucumbers should be eaten with peel as the fibre present in them helps in better digestion and also provides relief from constipation. &nbsp;

People generally switch to rock salt commonly known as sendha namak during fasting. But it is also beneficial for many other health issues including high blood pressure and diabetes.

Like too much sodium, too low sodium is equally unhealthy. So, consuming even a small amount of rock salt with meals balances level of sodium in our body.
<h3>Provides electrolytes</h3>
Fasting might cause electrolyte imbalance in the body causing cramps and weakness. As sendha namak contains various electrolytes, it may help relieve such health issues.
<h3>Helps in digestion</h3>
According to Ayurveda, sendha namak helps with digestive issues like bloating, indigestion and gastric problems caused due to fasting.
<h3>Treats sore throat</h3>
Gargling with rock salt soothes pain and soreness in throat. Studies have proven it effective and is recommended by organizations like the American Cancer Society.

Ramadan 2023: Important tips to be followed for a healthy month long fasting 

Ramadan is considered to be a holy month and is the ninth month in the Muslim Lunar calendar. These tips will help you stay healthy during the month long fasting.

The Holy month of Ramadan is beginning on March 22 and will continue for a month. Devotees observe long day fasts and are allowed to have food and water only before sunrise and after sunset.&nbsp;
Fasting all day naturally makes you feel tired and hungry. So, it is important to first replenish the lost liquids instead of consuming food that might cause bloating.
<h3>Essential fasting tips to be kept in mind:</h3>
Sehri or pre-dawn meal&nbsp;
It is important to consume food that will quench your thirst. Cucumber, zucchini, buttermilk, curd, melon and banana will keep you full and energetic for longer. Include complex carbohydrates in your meal like oats, jowar, ragi, sugar-free muesli along with whole wheat.&nbsp;
Iftar meal&nbsp;
The first meal after a long day of fasting should be kept light. One should consume something which provides instant electrolytes and raises sugar levels. The best way to cure dehydration is to break your fast with coconut water, ORS or salt and sugar water. &nbsp;
Dinner meal&nbsp;
For your main course consume a lot of carbs, proteins and high fibre vegetables. Carbs could be in the form of sweet potato or rice or even millets. Get your daily dose of protein from meat, chicken, fish or dal.&nbsp;
What to avoid&nbsp;
Avoid sugar, desserts, fruit juices and aerated drinks as they will leave you with cravings and low energy levels, making it difficult to fast again the very next day.
