Say No to Pakora! Health Experts Advise Pakistanis Against Deep-Fried Foods in Ramadan

As Ramadan begins, health experts in Pakistan are urging citizens to cut down on deep-fried foods like pakoras, samosas, and jalebis, warning of potential health risks. Nutritionists emphasize that excessive consumption of oily foods at iftar can lead to digestive issues, high cholesterol, and weight gain, making fasting more challenging.

Doctors recommend opting for grilled, baked, or steamed alternatives, along with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and hydrating drinks to maintain energy levels throughout the fasting month. While pakoras remain a staple in many households, experts advise moderation to ensure a healthier Ramadan experience.
