Fasting during Ramadan can pose challenges for individuals with diabetes. Proper planning and support are essential to maintain health while observing religious obligations. Dates are commonly consumed during suhoor and iftar due to their nutritional benefits.
Dates have a low glycemic index and are rich in fiber, antioxidants, and minerals. They can be beneficial for diabetics when consumed in moderation. Consultation with a healthcare provider is recommended.
Consult your doctor before fasting if you have diabetes. Regularly monitor blood glucose levels and adjust medications as advised by your healthcare provider.
