#dusshera
Navratri is the start of the festival season; Dussehra. A time when Goddess Durga is adorned with bejewelled attires. Time of Navratri, when devotees worship the different avatars of the Goddess for nine days. The wors 'Navratri' symbolises the nine auspicious nights during which Goddess Durga is venerated and most people observe fasts. During Navratri, most people give up onion, garlic and non-vegetarian food.
Foods Eaten During Vrat
Ingredients like kuttu atta, singhara atta, fresh vegetables, milk, yoghurt and makhana are partaken as they are light on the stomach and can be digested easily. Rock salt or sendha namak is used instead of regular salt, as it is pure and unprocessed. It is a time to detox and a Satvik diet is best to do that. It is a time to rejuvenating the body and skin.
Benefits of Banana
Banana is a fruit which is filling and good for the digestive system. It is an instant energy booster and one fruit that is universally available across the world. Banana is laden with fiber and keeps you feeling full for a longer time. No wonder bananas are habitually incorporated in breakfast so that you can start your day with energy. This is the reason why I feel that a Banana Lassi or Indian smoothie with walnuts, yoghurt and honey is perfect for starting your day during Navratri.
