(See also the Segal Guide to Fasting for Yom Kippur, from which these tips are taken.)

• DON’T GET THIRSTY
• DON’T START THE PRE-FAST MEAL ON A FULL STOMACH
• EAT FOODS THAT ARE DIGESTED SLOWLY
• DON’T GET A HEADACHE
• MAKE THE MEAL TASTY ENOUGH SO PEOPLE WILL EAT
• DON’T DO A COMPLETE FAST IF YOU HAVE CERTAIN MNEDICAL PROBLEMS
• DON’T EAT IMPROPERLY AFTER NEILA

Have an easy fast.
