How long Somvar Vrat runs
900–1,100kcal
One serving of each food listed below, ±10% for the hand that cooks it. A scale check, not a target. The Monday fast for Shiva. Usually a single-meal day. Many eat once, after the evening puja; others keep phalahar through the day and eat in the evening.
डेटासेट जसे सांगतो तसे: Sunrise until the evening puja, most commonly.

What Somvar Vrat is
Somvar vrat is dedicated to Shiva and is among the most widely kept weekly fasts in India, particularly through the month of Shravan when the Mondays draw enormous observance.
As a weekly pattern, it is the observance that most resembles a structured intermittent-fasting routine — a long daily fast with one evening meal, repeated. That makes it the easiest one to plan around and the easiest to get wrong through the composition of that single meal.
प्रथा वेगवेगळ्या असतात. The strictness ranges from a full phalahar day to simply satvik food with one meal. Shravan Mondays are often kept more strictly than the rest of the year.
ही नोंद कशी तयार केली आहे, आणि अन्नाची मोजणी कशी केली आहे
- The observance is read from published accounts of Somvar 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
Weekly and predictable, which makes it the easiest to plan for. Most people put the hardest session of the week on a different day and keep Monday for lighter work or technique — that is a scheduling choice, not a change to the observance.
Sleep
One evening meal at a normal hour has little effect on sleep. A very large one right before bed does.
Blood sugar
A weekly single-meal day is a regular pattern, so it is worth setting up properly with your doctor once rather than improvising it 52 times. That is the whole point of it being weekly.
Hydration
Most versions permit water freely. Take it — a long day fast without fluid is a much larger physiological event than one with.
The specific risk with Somvar Vrat
Low for healthy adults. Repeated weekly, though, the medication-timing question becomes more important rather than less.

Questions asked about Somvar Vrat
What should the one meal contain?
If your observance permits dairy, protein is the thing most often missing — curd, paneer or milk alongside whatever else is prepared. A single meal built entirely on potato, sabudana and fried food leaves the week short on protein 52 times a year, which is enough to matter.
Are Shravan Mondays different?
They are kept more widely and often more strictly, and for many people they are five consecutive weeks of the observance rather than an occasional one. That is closer to a Navratri-scale pattern than to a single fast day.

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.
