During month of Sawan, many devotees observe a fast every Monday to seek blessings from the Lord Shiva

Here are 4 tips for healthy fasting during Sawan

Stay hydrated

Keep yourself hydrated with drinks like coconut water and lemon water. These drinks replenish electrolytes and keep you refreshed throughout the day

Consume fruits

Have fruits like bananas, apples and pomegranates to boost your energy levels during fasting

Have nuts

Nuts such as almonds, pistachios, walnuts, and figs are a good source of healthy fats, proteins, and dietary fibre. They can help keep you satiated and energized
