Complete Your Iftar Moment with the Best Drinking Water!
The holy Ramadan has arrived. All Muslims have now started fasting, which is a great time to practice self-restraint from any craving such as lust, anger, or any other negativities, in order to find goodness on a Fitr' day.
For those of you who are fasting during Ramadan, surely you want to keep your body fresh, right? Therefore, an important thing that needs to be maintained is the mineral water intake for your body. As we know, minerals are one of the substances that are not produced by the body, that's why we need to obtain them from other sources. But the thing is, we are not allowed to drink when we fast. So... how do we get these minerals?
An equally important thing that we need to pay attention to is the type of water that we consume. It is highly recommended that the water we drink is high-quality mineral water. One of the Clinical Nutrition Specialists from the Department of Nutrition, Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia, Dr. Sri Sukmaniah MSc, SpGK stated that consuming too much sweet drinks to break the fast can potentially accumulate calories and fat in the body, which will increase our body weight. Therefore, when breaking the fast, mineral water is the most suitable drink that naturally meets our hydration needs.
Ready to fulfill these needs, VIT is a mineral water brand which has been present in Indonesia for the past 48 years. VIT mineral water has gone through various quality production processes, such as double filtering, and has been granted Halal and SNI certificates, which guarantees VIT’s high quality for daily consumption.
This is where you must always remember the 2-4-2 rule, which means 2 glasses of mineral water when breaking the fast, 4 glasses from dinner until bedtime, and another 2 glasses at dawn. Keep in mind, human hydration needs also vary, one of which is influenced by age. Adult men need 3L a day, adult women or pregnant women about 2L a day, breastfeeding mothers about 3L a day, and children to adolescents about 2L a day, which is equivalent to 4 VIT bottles in 550ml.
"When fasting, the kidneys will save as much water as possible," explains Tanya van Aswegen, a clinical nutritionist from Valiant Clinic Dubai. So by consuming high-quality mineral water while applying the 2-4-2 rule, the fluids that are lost during our daily activities will be replaced immediately.
As we all know, lack of water consumption can cause loss of concentration, headaches, dizziness, pimples, and the danger of kidney stones. Meanwhile, regularly consuming high-quality mineral water such as VIT, will bring many benefits to the body such as:
Smooth digestive process
Maintained bone health through the calcium content in water
A healthier heart because of the smooth blood flow and magnesium intake
Fit body immune system
Therefore, remember to always have VIT with you as your mineral water companion, whether you’re at home or have activities outdoors. Also, don't forget to balance a healthy lifestyle by regularly consuming nutritious foods, exercising and having enough rest. VIT is readily available at your trusted supermarkets, convenience stores, and e-commerce platforms. The price is also pocket-friendly, hence you do not need to worry.
Hope your fasting days continue to run smoothly, friends. Stay energized and always fresh!
