Can I drink lassi after fasting?

Published in Nutrition & Fasting 1 min read

Yes, you can drink lassi after fasting. In fact, it's often recommended!

Lassi is a great choice after fasting for several reasons:

  • Probiotic Benefits: Lassi, being a yogurt-based drink, contains probiotics that are beneficial for gut health. Fasting can sometimes disrupt the gut microbiome, and lassi can help restore balance.
  • Easy Digestion: It's generally easy to digest, making it a gentle way to reintroduce food after a period of fasting.
  • Hydration: Lassi is a hydrating beverage, and replenishing fluids is crucial after fasting.
  • Refreshing and Energizing: The taste of lassi can be quite refreshing and can provide a quick energy boost, especially if it contains sugar (though you can also opt for natural sweeteners or no sweetener at all).
  • Nutrient Source: It provides some protein and calcium, which are essential nutrients.

Therefore, lassi is not only permissible but can also be a beneficial and enjoyable drink to break your fast.
