Worldwide, around 50 million people with diabetes fast during Ramazan. Pakistan has a high prevalence of both diabetes and pre-diabetes. It is important that patients eat balanced meals suitable for their condition after breaking their fast.
This balanced diet includes lots of fruits, vegetables, salads and beans.
People with diabetes must limit foods that are high in saturated fats such as ghee, samosas and pakoras, said Professor Dr Farhat Bashir, Assistant Dean Clinical Sciences at United Medical and Dental College Karachi at an online seminar held at the Dr Panjwani Center for Molecular Medicine and Drug Research, University of Karachi.
