Diabetes UK: Fasting and diabetes
The Koran mandates fasting during the month of Ramadan from sunrise to sunset. However people with diabetes do not have to fast during Ramadan (speak to your Imam about this).
Many people still wish to fast. Information in this section helps you to manage your diabetes safely, whilst fasting during this holy time as well as informing you about the possible dangers of fasting and diabetes.
There is a specific leaflet on Ramadan and Diabetes available in English and other languages.
