Breakfast is an important part of fasting. At this time, it is a good opportunity for the body to accumulate energy for the coming day. That's why in the hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) it is said about the importance of early morning: "Observe the early morning, surely there is a blessing in it" (Bukhari and Muslim narrations).
First of all, you should avoid foods that cause thirst. These are salty and smoked products, as well as coffee. It is better to replace it with green tea, and for people with low blood pressure, it is recommended to drink black tea with saffron or honey.
Sweets, especially flour products, should not be consumed excessively.
