Why Fasting Snacks Matter
During Navratri, Ekadashi, and Mahashivratri, millions of Indians follow strict rules — no grains, no onion or garlic. Most packaged fasting snacks are deep-fried and offer minimal nutrition. There is a better way.
What Makes a Good Fasting Snack?
- Sattvic — no onion, no garlic, no root vegetables
- Sustained energy — complex carbs or healthy fats, not refined sugar
- Light yet filling — easy on a fasting stomach
Top Fasting-Friendly Snacks from Kuizeens
1. Amaranth Sabudana Chips
Rajgira is the most traditional fasting grain — high in protein, calcium, iron, 100% gluten-free. Our Amaranth Sabudana Chips are air-dried, no onion, no garlic, upvas-certified. Perfect with ginger tea.
2. Roasted Banana Chips
Bananas give sustained fasting energy. Kuizeens Roasted Banana Chips are baked from raw bananas — suitable for Jain fasts too. A handful keeps hunger away for hours.
3. Makhana (Fox Nuts)
Light, crunchy, low-calorie. Roast in ghee with sendha namak and pepper for a 5-minute sattvic snack packed with protein and magnesium.
4. Rajgira Ladoo
Jaggery-bound rajgira ladoos give iron and calcium — nutrients easily missed during fasting.
5. Sabudana Khichdi
Soaked sabudana with peanuts, ghee, and sendha namak. Filling, gluten-free, holds you 3-4 hours.
What to Avoid During Fasting
- Packaged fried potato chips (trans fats)
- Namkeen with onion or garlic powder
- Sweetened beverages (blood sugar spikes)
- Excessive tea or coffee (acidity and dehydration)
Stay Hydrated
Drink water, coconut water, or nimbu pani with sendha namak throughout the day. Dehydration is the most common cause of fasting fatigue.
