I think my top favorite would be eggs (if no allergies). They are packed with proteins, fat soluble vitamins and healthy fats, keeps one full longer. Whole wheat chapati or paratha is a healthy food but for my self i have replaced it with quinoa roti (made from quinoa flour). Its very protein dense hence giving satiety for longer. Please consume healthy fats ( olive oil or coconut oil) in place of the regular canola or corn oils that are extremely detrimental to health and result in obesity, CVD, stroke and many other problems.

Dates are of course the best food, with a good carbohydrate, and fibre content that wont spike blood sugars. They are rich in potassium hence compensating for the loss in fasting state.

Water is the best way to keep hydrated. If you want to soak chia seeds in it they have a lot of health benefits too. But remember to drink around 8-10 glasses of water between iftar to sehri. Its essential to keep hydrated. You will increase your trips to the bathroom but your skin will glow and the fasting fatigue will be less obvious on your face.

Last but not the least try to squeeze in as much naps as you can. Fasting is a test of thirst, hunger and sleep. More naps will make one feel more energetic in a fasting state.

Hope you feel well, energetic and robust this Ramadan and invest wholesomely in your prayers :)
