« Our food should be our medicine and our medicine should be our food » Hippocrates

The IEEE IAS ENET’COM SBC in collaboration with the IEEE WIE ENET’COM Affinity Group held on monday, the 3th of April an online meeting session with a nutritionist which was focused on helping individuals maintain a healthy and balanced diet during Ramadan’s month.

The nutritionist started by discussing the members’ current diet and eating habits during Ramadan and any concerns they have about their nutrition.

After that, she provided guidance on how to make healthy food choices during the suhoor and the iftar, which are the only times during the day when food and drink are permitted.

Then, she discussed strategies for staying hydrated during the day and ways to manage hunger and cravings. Besides, she recommended foods that are high in fiber and protein and foods that have a low glycemic index to help keep blood sugar levels stable.

Finally, she talked about the patient’s goals and any concerns they have such as weight loss or a specific medical condition.

Overall, a session with a nutritionist is an opportunity for our members to receive personalized guidance on their nutrition and lifestyle habits, which can significantly impact their overall health and well-being.
