According to Medanta Hospital's guidelines, bottle gourd, also known as lauki or dudhi, is a permissible and highly recommended vegetable for consumption during Navratri fasting. This practice is rooted in the tradition of consuming light, pure, or 'sattvic' foods that do not agitate the body, making the humble gourd an ideal choice for your fasting menu.
