While we patiently withstand thirst and hunger in the fasting month, one of the problems that often occur is stomach problems. Even if the symptoms are mild, we still shouldn't just let them be.

Stomach problems, such as constipation for example, are generally caused by indigestion. Not only that, an unhealthy digestive system can lead to a bad mood, a lack of energy, and weakness. This can interfere with your ibadah and activities while fasting. Of course, you don't want that to happen, right?

So, how do you avoid it? The main principle is to pay attention to the food and drinks you consume when breaking the fast. Usually, the bad habit when breaking the fast is to eat as much as possible, as if to "get revenge", without caring about the balance of nutrients that enter your body. But it's not healthy, you know! We recommend that every food group, from vegetables, meat, to fruits, is available for balanced intake. Also, even though fried foods are the “standard menu” for breaking the fast in Indonesia, you should start reducing them because they can accumulate cholesterol and calories.

As soon as it's time to break the fast, drink good-quality mineral water. Drinking sugary drinks is important, but don't overdo it. Because in addition to sugar, our bodies also need mineral substitutes that can be obtained from mineral water. But you can't just choose water carelessly. Based on Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 492 of 2010, good drinking water must pass a test by the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM), which meets three requirements: Physical, Chemical, and Microbiological conditions, which means that good-quality drinking water must have no color (clear), smell, and taste, and does not contain bacteria and harmful substances for the body, such as Hg (mercury), Pb (lead), As (arsenic), Cd. (cadmium), or Cr (chromium).

Just like VIT, which has been in Indonesia for 48 years and has met the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). As good-quality drinking water, VIT has gone through a filtration and packaging process using high technology and strict quality control, ensuring that the water you drink meets the established quality standards. So your hydration needs can be met with VIT and help the digestive process run better.

According to the Indonesian Ministry of Health, our hydration needs are generally two liters per day. To fulfill this need, you can drink a 550ml VIT bottle at the following times: one bottle after waking up (before dawn), one at suhoor, one at iftar, and one bottle before going to bed. Easy, right?

Apart from keeping you from annoying digestive problems, drinking lots of water also provides many other benefits, such as helping to reduce calories and reduce the risk of gaining weight. This information is quoted from a study entitled How Drinking More Water Can Help You Lose Weight by Adda Bjarnadottir.

So, now you surely know how to maintain your digestive health, right? Pay attention to the portion and nutritional content of your food, then complete it with good drinking water such as VIT mineral water. You can easily get VIT at supermarkets, convenience stores, or your flagship e-commerce. Oh, and don't forget to also exercise at the right times such as 30 minutes before breaking the fast, or three hours after eating so as not to interfere with the digestive process.

Keep up the spirit, guys! Hopefully the fast will run smoothly until Eid arrives. Make sure to always have VIT mineral water with you!
