The Impact of Ramadan Sweets on Blood Sugar Levels

Ramadan sweets particularly those high in sugar and fat can lead to significant spikes in blood sugar levels. According to health authorities excessive consumption of traditional treats such as zulbia and bamieh during this holy month may result in sudden increases in blood sugar followed by rapid declines which can cause physical weakness and metabolic disturbances.

Moreover indulging in these sugary confections can elevate the risk of high cholesterol digestive issues and a weakened immune system especially among individuals with diabetes and heart conditions. Health professionals recommend that those observing fasting should consider healthier alternatives such as dates raisins fruits and nuts while avoiding dark-colored and unhygienic products.
