Keep Your Energy Levels Up Throughout Ramadan

Ramadan is a much-anticipated moment, but we all know the challenges: suddenly feeling like your body is running on empty during the day. The key isn't how much you eat when breaking your fast, but rather adopting a smart lifestyle.

To make this year's Ramadan more meaningful, let's try these simple tips!

1. Plate Strategy: Choose Foods That Stay in Your Stomach Longer
It's normal to feel hungry when it's time to break the fast, but be careful! Foods that are too oily or too sweet will actually make you sleepy and thirsty again quickly. Include vegetables, fruits, or a handful of nuts in your daily menu. Steamed or baked foods also make your body feel lighter compared to fried foods, which are “heavy.”

2. The 2-4-2 Formula (Hydration Without Bloating)
Drinking a lot of water at once during suhoor will only make you go back and forth to the bathroom. Use a drinking schedule strategy:

• 2 glasses when breaking the fast.

• 4 glasses throughout the night (slowly).

• 2 glasses during suhoor. This way, your body's water reserves will be maintained throughout the day!

3. Short “Recharges” Are Necessary
Don't force your body to work continuously. If your eyes start to feel heavy at 2 p.m., take 5-10 minutes to step away from the screen or your work. This short break is effective for regaining focus without having to break your fast.

4. Exercise? No Problem!
No need to lift heavy weights. Just take a leisurely walk or do light stretching for 15-30 minutes before breaking your fast. These light movements actually improve blood flow and prevent your body from feeling stiff.

5. Set Your Dinner Rhythm
Breaking your fast is not a race. Start with something light like dates or warm soup. To prevent your digestive system from being overwhelmed, divide your meal into three stages: when breaking the fast, after tarawih, and at suhoor.

After a day of restraint and completing tarawih prayers, your body and mind need something soothing. This is the perfect time to pamper yourself with Kopiko Blanca.

Its creamy texture and smooth taste provide instant relaxation. As a smooth instant white coffee, Kopiko Blanca won't make you feel “heavy”; instead, its tempting aroma will lift your mood to prepare for suhoor later. It's truly a sweet way to end the day in comfort.

6. Suhoor Is Your Main “Ammo”
No matter how busy or sleepy you are, never skip suhoor. Suhoor is your main source of energy so you don't get tired, have bad breath, or feel dizzy during the day. Think of suhoor as an investment to keep your day productive.

7. Quality Sleep, Not All-Day Sleep
Even though your sleep pattern changes because you have to wake up for sahur, try to keep your sleep schedule consistent. Try to sleep earlier after tarawih so that you get enough rest.

Staying fit during Ramadan is all about balance. Listen to what your body needs, eat wisely, and don't forget to treat yourself to a cup of Kopiko Blanca at night.
