Staying Safe with Diabetes During Summer and Fasting

Dr. Sunil Gupta explained that during the summer season, people with diabetes are at higher risk of dehydration, low blood sugar, and infections, making it essential to stay well-hydrated with fluids like water and buttermilk. Discussing diet, Dr. Gupta recommended moderation in mango and fruit intake, emphasizing that fruit juices should be avoided because they can cause rapid spikes in blood sugar. He also addressed the importance of caution during fasting periods, such as Ramadan or religious fasts, when there is a risk of hypoglycemia (low sugar). In such cases, he stressed that medication adjustments must be made under medical supervision. For those traveling or unwell, Dr. Gupta suggested following travel and sick-day guidelines—carrying two sets of medicines, a glucometer, and glucose tablets, and never discontinuing medications during illness or vomiting. He warned that dehydration can worsen diabetes control. Concluding his advice, Dr. Gupta reminded that diabetes cannot be completely cured, but with proper lifestyle management, it can be effectively controlled for a healthy, active life.
