Gastroenterologist in Varanasi trusted by families for safe fasting guidance—Dr Saumyaleen Roy helps manage acidity, ulcers, and reflux during vrat. For expert care, consult an experienced gastroenterologist in Varanasi for a personalized Ulcer patient fasting diet plan.
Fasting smart, not hard
- Choose gentle foods: sabudana khichdi (low oil), banana, papaya, musk melon, roasted makhana, rajgira/singhara roti with curd. Avoid fried pakodi, heavy chutneys, citrus, mint, chocolate, tea/coffee on an empty stomach. This reduces gas, bloating, belching while fasting.
- Hydration rule: sip 2–3L water, coconut water, or chaach through the day; avoid large gulps post-aarti to prevent reflux.
- Timing matters: small, frequent portions in the eating window; early light dinner; keep a 2–3 hour gap before sleep; elevate head 6–8 inches to curb night-time heartburn.
- Medication safety: if on PPI/H2 blockers/antacids, ask about dosing around fasts; avoid NSAIDs painkillers on an empty stomach.
- Red flags—do not delay care: persistent vomiting, black or bloody stools, severe chest burning, dizziness/dehydration.
Ulcer patient fasting diet plan (sample)
- Pre-fast: banana + curd + singhara roti (light ghee).
