<p>The holy month brings with it the demand for calorie-rich delicacies. Yet how healthy is it to indulge in fried or sweet dishes after an entire day of fasting? Nutritionist Rashi Chowdhary offers healthy options for both the meals — Sehri and Iftar</p>

Pack in the energy:
Carbohydrates: Focus on whole, unprocessed, and complex carbohydrate sources like sweet potatoes, quinoa and carrots. White or brown rice is better than whole wheat processed bread/khaboos. Relying on processed carbohydrates for energy especially during Sehri (morning) and Iftar (evening) will spike your insulin and can lead to weight gain.
