Abstract
Background: Although sick people are exempted from performing Ramadan, it is estimated that approximately 50 million people with diabetes mellitus (DM) fast during this month.
Objective: To explore the relationship between Ramadan and DM in adult Muslim population as well as management and recommendations from literature related with this issue.
Method: A narrative review was carried out in PubMed, Cochrane and Cuiden, databases, using controlled and free language for the period 2009-2014, and language filters (Spanish and English). Content analysis of selected documents in order to find emerging thematic categories was conducted.
Results: The results have been organized into five thematic categories: the desire for Ramadan; changes that occur in the body by fasting; complications from fasting; control of DM during fasting; knowledge of healthcare professional.
Conclusion: Those believers who wish to take part in Ramadan and suffering DM, have to go to their health care professional before performing because, although people with good control can perform the fast, the treatment must be individualized, considering the composition and amount of food they are going to eat.
