Post-fast, senior nutritionist Ashlesha Joshi recommended starting with fluids like water, diluted lemon water or bone broth to rehydrate. This can be followed by fruits like berries/papaya for hydration and fibre, a boiled egg or Greek yoghurt for protein, soaked almonds or olive oil for healthy fats, and lightly steamed vegetables. She cautioned against white bread, pastries or sweetened drinks.
