Fruits
Fruits are important sources of nutrition to consume on the Daniel Fast. They contain essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants your body needs to properly function. For example, C and B vitamins are potent antioxidants that protect your body from free radical invasion and strengthen your immune system. They also contain starch and sugars for added energy during your fast. All fruits are considered good to eat during the 21-day Daniel Fast.
Vegetables
Vegetables are wonderful additions to include in your daily diet. Like fruits, they contain fiber, which promotes bowel and overall digestive health. All vegetables qualify as permitted foods for the Daniel Fast. For best results, steam a variety of vegetables or eat them raw.
Whole Grains
Whole grains such as grits, plain oatmeal, brown rice and wild rice can be consumed whole on the Daniel Fast but only after 1700 hours. Whole grains are sources of plentiful fiber, B and E vitamins, magnesium, copper and zinc.
Liquids
Consuming an adequate amount of liquid is important while on your fast. MayoClinic.com recommends you drink/consume 64 ounces daily, equal to eight standard 8-ounce glasses. Although water is the majority liquid you should consume, you can also juice, puree or blend fruits for your drinking pleasure. Drink Beetroots, hot green teas and cranberry juice during these 21 days FAST.
Proteins
Since the 21-day Daniel Fast restricts meat, you can get your protein from permitted sources, such as beans, seeds and nuts. Examples of these foods include kidney beans, black beans, lentils, macadamia nuts, Brazil nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, cashew and almonds. Check the nutritional labels to ensure your nuts or seeds contain no added sweeteners or artificial preservatives. SCALE FISH is only ALLOWED after 1700 hours, but NOT after midnight.
