Learn About the Food Practice on Varalakshmi Vratham Day
August 16, 2018
A lot has been said about the origin and purpose of Varalakshmi Pooja, but considering that it is a day when people observe fasts, how much has been spoken about the food to be consumed on this day? If you are thinking about this as I do, read through!
Fasting on Varalakshmi Pooja is observed in various ways. Some people refrain from consuming anything until the Pooja is completed and some people observe it from sunrise to sunset. In general, people also put in a lot of physical efforts to prepare for the Pooja and to perform the Pooja. So, the Vrat diet should be something that would keep you energized.
Listed below are a few of the simple and quick food that can be consumed on the Pooja day:
Milk
Milk is rich in calcium, and it is a liquid food that can be quite filling. As it is used in Abishekam (Hydration) of the Gods and Goddesses, it also considered being pure.
Fruits, Dry Fruits, and Nuts
Fruits, Dry Fruits, and Nuts are foods that need not be prepared and are readily available. So, one major work goes down. Secondly, these are healthy food items that would give you all the necessary energy to perform tedious tasks. Banana is one of the fruits that are rich in potassium and also contains natural glucose. Consuming this would not only make you feel full but would also give the necessary energy. Dry fruits like almond and raisins are rich in magnesium and Vitamin E. You can also consume fruit juices to keep yourself fresh and most importantly, hydrated.
We hope this helps in keeping yourself energized on a Vrat day!
