What is the best food to break the fast with?
Remember, our digestive fire or jatharagini is at its lowest during the morning. Therefore, we should always break our fast with something light & nutritious
Therefore, the best food to break your fast is with a mono fruit. You can choose from any seasonal fruit. In the beginning, limit the intake of very sweet fruits like banana and mango to 1-2 times a week. All others fruits can be had.
When we drive a car, we gradually shift from the 1st gear to the 5th gear. We do not directly shift to the 5th gear. Same way, our digestive system is weak in the morning and gets stronger by noon. Hence, we shall gradually break our fast. First by juices, followed by fruits, followed by either a salad or a grain meal.
