The example foods you can eat during Sehri are rice, mixed vegetables, fish or chicken, pulses, yogurt or low fat milk. At this time, if you eat dates, you will feel less thirsty all day long.
If you don’t want to eat rice, you can try oats, bread, chira-yogurt, corn flakes-milk and high fibre breakfast cereals.
