If your fasting routine allows you to consume drinks, black coffee or milk coffee are acceptable options, but it has some conditions.
Avoid drinking coffee with an empty stomach, as it can cause acidity and blood sugar peaks.
The auspicious occasion of Navratri Chaitra continues in full swing. The Hindu devotees have started the 9 -day festive season with joy and fervor. These nine days are dedicated to worshiping the nine forms of the goddess Durga. People come together to worship the divine female energy and seek blessings for the well -being of their families and friends. Among the important Navratri rituals, one of the important elements is to observe an fasting. During this time, people refrain from foods such as alcohol, onion, garlic and meat.
But a question is always in the minds of coffee lovers. While some people believe that tea is only allowed to consume during the fasting period, coffee lovers wonder if they can consume a cup of coffee during fasting, or does it break the rules? The answer is yes! If your fasting routine allows you to consume drinks, black coffee or milk coffee are acceptable options, but have some conditions.
When lighting light on this, clinical director of the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology in the hospitals of Marengo Asia, Dr. Rajesh Kumar Padhan, explains that coffee is generally allowed if fasting includes food and drinks instead of complete abstinence of food.
“Coffee is permissible if it has a restricted diet and consumes certain foods or drinks during Navratri. However, it is not advisable to drink coffee with an empty stomach, since it can increase acidity and increase blood sugar levels,” said the time cited by Dr. Padhan.
