  • Quels Sont Les Repas Du Ramadan
    Bien gérer son alimentation durant le Ramadan Qu’est-ce que le Ramadan ? Le Ramadan correspond à une période sacrée, dans la religion musulmane, pendant laquelle le rythme et les habitudes changent. Les personnes qui le suivant doivent s’abstenir de manger et de boire du lever au coucher du soleil. C’est aussi une période où l’on prend souvent plus de temps pour cuisiner (plats, bricks, pâtisseries, pains, beignets…). Cela implique donc un bouleversement de l’alimentation quotidienne. Quels sont les repas du ramadan ? Les repas pendant le ramadan sont au nombre de trois et s’appellent différemment selon le moment de la journée où ils sont pris : « Al Ftour » à la rupture du jeûne après le coucher du soleil, « Al Ichaa » quelques heures après Al Ftour, « S’Hour » avant le lever du soleil. Certaines années, la rupture du jeûne se fait à une heure tardive. De nombreuses personnes ne prennent donc pas de second repas par manque d’appétit. Comment m’alimenter pendant le ramadan ? L’idéal est de ne pas grignoter tout au long de la soirée et de prendre trois repas réguliers. Cela signifie un petit déjeuner pris très tôt, un déjeuner (à la rupture du jeûne) et un dîner (dans la nuit). Si vous avez du mal à maintenir 3 repas essayez d’en faire 2 au minimum (un petit déjeuner et un repas au coucher du soleil). Pour éviter tout risque de carence, diversifiez votre alimentation en associant les différents groupes alimentaires : - féculents : pâtes, riz, lentilles, pois chiches, orge, pain, pommes de terre, semoule…Ils sont la source d’énergie de votre corps, ils sont essentiels pour éviter d’avoir faim ou d’être fatigué dans la journée.
