JAKARTA - People with diabetes still have to make sure blood sugar is at a safe limit if they want to keep fasting. Internal medicine specialist Dr. Herry Nursetiyanto, Sp.PD, FINASIM provides a safe blood sugar measure.
"The important thing is that fasting is safe with blood sugar, not less than 100 or no more than 250, it is safe, it is hoped that the 150-250 range is still acceptable, if it is too low or too high in danger," said Herry, quoted from ANTARA, Monday, March 27. The condition for fasting for diabetics, said Dr. Herry, also depends on the level of diabetes condition itself. If in mild conditions, you can adjust the time to drink the medicine at the time of breaking or suhoor and apply a healthy diet. But if the condition is moderate to severe, you should consult a doctor so that you can be given the best advice from the medical side. "In addition, if the diabetes is severe and high risk we usually don't recommend fasting, if the high risk of being forced fasting occurs, the risk is that the risk is heavier than the benefit," said Dr. Herry. Doctors who completed his specialty at the Faculty of Medicine This University added that diabetics with high risk such as high blood sugar (hypergligemi) when fasting will have an impact on decreasing other organ function. In addition, if the sugar content is too low, it can cause loss of consciousness and lead to hypoglyglychemic coma.
"If blood sugar drops below 70, it is dangerous for patients to fall into hypoglycemia because the body cannot get enough carbohydrate supplies, within a certain time. Within 15 minutes there will be brain damage, so it is actually more dangerous, usually in the elderly," said the alumni of SMAN 8 Jakarta. "If we are aware of fasting properly, we should be thin. The problem is from the first if fasting eats suhoor and opens one and a half serving, so there is a lot of breaking all of them are weights that swell," he concluded.
