Is intermittent fasting good for a diabetic?

Diabetes is a condition of high sugar (hyperglycemia). The purpose of the medication that diabetic takes is to lower blood sugars – sometimes the medication could drive the blood sugar too low that could cause hypoglycemia.

When you do intermittent fasting, you decrease the need for insulin and the medication for a diabetic. The insulin that the diabetic is taking is not the same as the body produces.
