How long Pradosh Vrat runs
820–1,000kcal
One serving of each food listed below, ±10% for the hand that cooks it. A scale check, not a target. Twice a month, broken in the twilight hour. A day fast dedicated to Shiva, broken during the pradosh kaal — roughly the hour and a half around sunset — after the evening puja.
डेटासेट जसे सांगतो तसे: Sunrise to sunset, ending in the twilight window rather than at a fixed time.

What Pradosh Vrat is
Pradosh vrat is kept twice a lunar month and is broken during pradosh kaal, the twilight period around sunset, after the puja. Because it ends at sunset rather than at moonrise or midnight, it is one of the easier long-day fasts to fit around ordinary work and sleep.
Many keep it as a nirahar day — no food, water permitted — and break it in the evening. Others keep phalahar through the day.
प्रथा वेगवेगळ्या असतात. Whether water alone, fruit and milk, or nothing at all is taken through the day differs by household and by Shaiva tradition.
ही नोंद कशी तयार केली आहे, आणि अन्नाची मोजणी कशी केली आहे
- The observance is read from published accounts of Pradosh Vrat and written as commonly observed — कधीही आवश्यक म्हणून नाही, कधीही बरोबर म्हणून नाही. जिथे कुटुंबांमध्ये फरक असतो, तिथे नोंद फरक असल्याचे सांगते.
- वरील कमान पाळला जाणारा कालावधी यांच्यादरम्यान दाखवते नावानिशी दिलेली स्थानके दिवसाचे टप्पे — सूर्योदय, माध्यान्ह, सूर्यास्त, चंद्रोदय — आणि कधीही ठराविक वेळांदरम्यान नाही. सेहरी, इफ्तार, चंद्रोदय आणि सूर्यास्त हे स्थानिक आणि धार्मिकदृष्ट्या महत्त्वाचे आहेत, आणि ही साइट त्यांपैकी एकही प्रकाशित करत नाही.
- कालावधी डेटासेट स्वतः जो पल्ला सांगतो त्यातून, पल्ला म्हणूनच घेतला आहे. जिथे कालावधी अक्षांश आणि ऋतूवर अवलंबून असतो, तिथे कालावधी छापलेलाच नाही.
- अन्नऊर्जा प्रत्येक पदार्थ प्रत्यक्षात ज्या प्रमाणात खाल्ला जातो त्या सर्व्हिंगनुसार दिली आहे — जिथे तक्त्यात तो पदार्थ आहे तिथे IFCT 2017 (ICMR–NIN) मधून, आणि जिथे नाही तिथे नाव दिलेल्या पर्यायी स्रोतातून.
- प्रत्येक बिल्डवेळी प्रत्येक पदार्थ Atwater घटकांशी ताळमेळ घालून तपासला जातो, आणि ताळमेळ न बसणारे पान प्रकाशित होत नाही.

आठवडा न बिघडवता हे कसे पाळायचे
हा भाग कोणीच नीट प्रकाशित करत नाही. यातले काहीही तुम्हाला व्रत बदलायला सांगत नाही — व्यायाम, झोप आणि जेवणाच्या वेळा हे तुमच्या हातातले घटक आहेत, उपवास नाही.
Training
Easier than most because it ends at sunset. A morning session on an empty stomach suits many people; an evening session just before breaking the fast is the harder option.
Sleep
Better than the midnight-ending fasts, since the meal falls at a normal hour. This is the fast that costs sleep least.
Blood sugar
A sunrise-to-sunset pattern twice a month is close to what an intermittent fasting schedule looks like, and the same medication caution applies.
Hydration
Water is permitted in most versions. Take it.
The specific risk with Pradosh Vrat
Low to moderate for healthy adults. The usual medication and pregnancy cautions apply.

Questions asked about Pradosh Vrat
When is pradosh kaal?
Roughly the hour and a half around sunset — about 45 minutes either side — which means it moves with the season and your location. Your local panchang gives it; this site does not compute it.

Practices are described as commonly observed; customs differ by family, region, community and sampradaya, and this site is not an authority on any of them. Food values come from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN), the older ICMR–NIN tables, USDA FoodData Central, named composition studies and the shared ThaliFacts dataset, reconciled against Atwater factors on every build. Which source applies to which food is listed per food, and every source carries the date it was last checked. General information only — not medical or religious guidance. Fasting is not safe for everyone, particularly during pregnancy or with diabetes or other conditions. Speak to a doctor first.
