Most times, many churches use the beginning of the year to fast for various blessings during the year.
Although there are different types of fasts, these fasts have to be broken with food.
Experts recommend that people break a fast slowly with foods that are digester easily so as to avoid gastrointestinal problems. Consuming foods that are hard to digest such as fried foods, can actually make you feel ill.
