If you're diabetic and keeping fast during Shravan month, then follow these tips. 

Sawan 2023: What tips should diabetics follow during fasting? Know here

If you're diabetic and fasting during this Shravan month, then follow these healthy tips.&nbsp;

Sawan 2023: During the holy month of Sawan, many devotees fast every Monday to seek blessings of Lord Shiva.
And, if you're a diabetic patient and fasting as well, then keep these tips in mind to manage your blood sugar levels and lead a healthy fasting season.&nbsp;
<h3>Useful tips for diabetics while fasting</h3>
- To stay healthy while fasting, keep checking the blood sugar level and include right amount of carbs, fibre and protein in your diet. Apart from this, note that you get complete sleep.
- Consuming Buckwheat flour (kuttu ka atta) or water chestnut flour (singhaada ka aata) are healthier options during fasting.
- Instead of eating deep fried pakodas (fritters), try eating plain roti made of these flours. Eating fried food may increase blood sugar levels.
- Diabetic patients can eat khichdi or kheer made of Barnyard millet (Sama rice).
- Petha (wax gourd) or lauki (bottle gourd) can also be eaten during fasts, but make sure to not add sugar and jaggery to any of these preparations.

Fasting all day naturally makes you feel tired and hungry. So, it is important to first replenish the lost liquids instead of consuming foods that might make you feel bloated. These are some essential fasting tips one should keep in mind during this time.&nbsp;
Sehri or pre-dawn meal
It is important to consume foods that will quench your thirsts such as cucumber, zucchini, buttermilk, curd, melon and banana. To keep one feeling full and energetic while fasting, include complex carbohydrates in your meal like oats, jowar, ragi, sugar-free muesli along with whole wheat.
Iftar meal
The first meal after a long day of fasting should be kept light. One should consume foods that give instant electrolytes and raise your sugar levels. The best way to replace dehydration is to break your fast with coconut water or salty lemon water. This is why traditionally Iftar includes a lot of drinks, fruits and dates.
Dinner meal
For your main course consume a lot of&nbsp;carbs, proteins and high fibre vegetables. Carbs could be in the form of sweet potato or rice or even&nbsp;millets. Get your daily dose of proteins from meat, chicken, fish or dal.
What to avoid?
Avoid sugar, desserts, fruit juices and aerated drinks as they will leave you with cravings and low energy levels, especially when you have to fast the very next day.

Intermittent fasting is a diet pattern that cycles between regular eating and fasting. This popular fitness routine focuses on when to eat rather than what to eat. 

Intermittent Fasting: Know your way around this cycle of eating and fasting while intermittent fasting

Intermittent fasting has been a popular diet&nbsp;trend that involves eating and fasting at regular intervals. Improved metabolism and fitness are some benefits of this diet trend

Intermittent Fasting: Know your way around this cycle of eating and fasting

Intermittent fasting has been a popular diet&nbsp;trend that involves eating and fasting at regular intervals. Improved metabolism and fitness are some benefits of this diet trend

Intermittent fasting is a diet pattern that cycles between regular eating and fasting period. Rather than specifying what to eat, this popular fitness routine focuses on when you must eat. Department of Medicine at the University of Illinois reported that apart from increased metabolism, intermittent fasting is also an effective way to reduce the risk of type-2 diabetes and heart disease. There are three different types of routines in intermittent fasting for you to adopt.
16/8 Method
The 16/8 method involves abstaining from food for 16 hours and then eating 2-3 meals within a window of 8 hours. Developed by fitness expert Martin Berkhan, following this method is comparatively simpler as the fasting period can be observed by not eating anything after dinner and skipping breakfast the next day.
Eat-Stop-Eat
This involves fasting for 24 hours at a stretch, maybe once or twice a week. For example, by not eating from dinner one day until dinner the next day, the 24-hour fasting routine can be completed. Popularised by fitness expert Brad Pilon, in this method, water, black coffee, and other zero-calorie beverages are allowed during the fasting period.

5:2 Diet
Developed by British journalist Michael Mosley, this diet involves regular eating for 5 days of the week and restricting your calorie intake to 500-600 for the other two days. This is also known as the fast diet.
During the eating window of intermittent fasting, it is more effective to consume low-calorie foods. Munch on popcorn, fruits, non-starchy vegetables like carrots and cucumber to beat the hunger pangs without feeling guilty.
But&nbsp;do&nbsp;remember, before you take the plunge and start intermittent fasting, do your research or consult a dietician for expert advice.&nbsp;

Intermittent fasting has gained a lot of popularity in the last few years.&nbsp;Whether you're following the 16-8 method or going for the 5:2 diet, there&nbsp;are some mistakes that nearly everyone makes on their fasting journey.

The practise of intermittent fasting has gained a lot of popularity in the last few years. Also&nbsp;known&nbsp;as intermittent energy restriction, the fasting style involves cycling&nbsp;between voluntary fasting and non-fasting over a&nbsp;set&nbsp;period.&nbsp;&nbsp;
From weight loss to the betterment of overall health, several benefits put people on the path of intermittent&nbsp;fasting.&nbsp;But whether you&rsquo;re following the 16-8 method or going for the 5:2 diet, there&nbsp;are some mistakes that&nbsp;everyone is&nbsp;prone to making on their fasting journey.

Let&rsquo;s see how you can avoid these intermittent fasting faux pas and increase your chances of weight loss.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>Going too drastic, too quickly&nbsp;</h3>
Adopting a daily fasting practice is a big change from your regular habit of eating every three to four hours. First of all,&nbsp;it's&nbsp;important to check with your doctor if&nbsp;your health allows you to take up&nbsp;intermittent fasting. Secondly, people often switch to a drastic method like 16 hours of fasting overnight which is a recipe for failure.&nbsp;
Don&rsquo;t shrink your&nbsp;non-fasting&nbsp;period&nbsp;overnight. Try to ease&nbsp;yourself by&nbsp;maybe starting at 10 to&nbsp;12 hours and then extend the period gradually.&nbsp;
<h3>Eating too many calories&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
Just because you&rsquo;re restricting your meals to a certain timeline doesn&rsquo;t mean that you&rsquo;re automatically eating less. If you&nbsp;overconsume before your voluntary fasting hours arrive, you won&rsquo;t achieve the goal of calorie reduction.&nbsp;&nbsp;
To avoid this, find out how many calories you need to consume and track everything you eat so that you&nbsp;maintain a healthy calorie deficit.&nbsp;

<h3>Not eating enough calories&nbsp;</h3>
Conversely, eating too few calories is no good either. If you&rsquo;re&nbsp;starving yourself with an overly low-calorie diet, you will actually sabotage your metabolic rate. Less than optimum nutrition can lead to bone and muscle loss so you might feel like you&rsquo;re losing weight when you&rsquo;re actually&nbsp;losing the good stuff.&nbsp;
It is best to know your limits and stick to them for sustainable and healthy weight loss!
<h3>Your fasting method is&nbsp;not for you&nbsp;</h3>
There are several methods of intermittent fasting to choose from.&nbsp;If you go to the gym 6 days a week, then the 5:2 diet that involves fasting for 2 days may not be for you.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Make sure that you analyse your lifestyle before choosing a fasting plan that works for you, and not against you.
<h3>Ignoring the nutrient quality of food&nbsp;</h3>
One of the most important things that are oft-forgotten is the nutrient quality of the food you eat when fasting. If you have a non-fasting window of eight hours and all you eat is refined, sugary or processed&nbsp;junk, you will gain almost no health benefits.&nbsp;
Shift the focus from eating less to eating better. Aim to eat nutritious whole foods&nbsp;like fresh fruits and vegetables.&nbsp;Get adequate amounts of good protein (such as from meat, poultry, fish and legumes)&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;nuts and seeds&nbsp;to make sure you&rsquo;re always satiated!&nbsp;&nbsp;

The jury is still out on whether fasting&nbsp;is&nbsp;healthy&nbsp;or not. Researchers have revealed that fasting diets could, in fact, impact future generations.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The new research found that reduced food intake&nbsp;in roundworms has a detrimental effect on the lifespans of the next three generations of offspring &ndash; particularly when those descendants had access to unlimited food.&nbsp;
Researchers from East Anglia University assessed the effects of different scenarios on the reproduction and longevity across four generations of roundworms, calling the transparent creatures&nbsp;a classic model organism for studying the ageing process in biology because they do share many genes and molecular pathways that control development with humans.&nbsp;
The team discovered that fasting did indeed increase their lifespan and also improved offspring performance in terms of reproduction when offspring themselves were fasting.&nbsp;However, they were surprised to find that fasting reduced offspring performance when the offspring had access to unlimited food.&nbsp;
Publishing their findings in the journal 'Proceedings of the Royal Society B,' the team&nbsp;said that fasting diets have gotten quite popular in the last few years but we might need to&nbsp;also&nbsp;consider the&nbsp;multigenerational effects of&nbsp;the concept.&nbsp;&nbsp;
