The pious month of Ramadan is here, and people fast from dawn to dusk, abstaining from food and drink to offer prayers to the Almighty. Popular television actress Hina Khan urged everyone to maintain a “healthy and balanced” diet during Ramadan and avoid overeating. She stressed that eating heavy, fried, and sugary food after hours of fasting can cause weight gain, along with digestive issues and fatigue.

Taking to her official Instagram Stories, the Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actress wrote, “It is a very common practice to overeat during iftar. I know after hours of fasting, the body often craves quick energy, leading to high consumption of particularly heavy, fried, and sugary khaana, which eventually leads to weight gain, digestive issues, fatigue..(sic).”
