During Ramadan, people often have concerns about maintaining healthy blood glucose levels, especially when they’re abstaining from food and drink for long periods. It is always important to pay attention to how your body responds to fasting and adjust your routine accordingly, by monitoring your dietary intake and seeking medical advice when necessary. Adding GT&F milk into daily diet is one of the options to maintain a healthy sugar level throughout the month.

GT&F Milk products are produced by using the patented bio-tech technique. Combination of lactoferrin, chromium, whey protein concentrate and New Zealand best-grade milk powder making it the most bioavailable GTF source for improving insulin sensitivity and insulin signalling. Below are how can you take GT&F during fasting month:

Diabetic Patients 2 sachets per day

First Sachet – During pre-dawn meal. (Sahoor)

Second Sachet – Before breaking fast. (Iftar) Before taking meal during Iftar.

Pre-diabetic patients 1 sachet per day

Since heavy meal will be taken during Iftar, the suitable timing for you to consume GT&F Milk is before you take your meal.

Normal people 1 sachet per day before meal

Break your fast with GT&F Milk.

Does consuming GT&F Milk during Ramadhan will cause hypoglycemia?

Consuming GT&F milk as a part of a balanced diet during Ramadhan is unlikely to cause hypoglycemia. Based on study (Chen et al., 2006), taking GTF chromium doesn’t cause hypoglycemia for normal healthy people. People on diabetic medication and insulin must take a gap of around 1-2 hours (between the medicine/ insulin and GT&F milk) before consuming GT&F Milk.

GT&F Milk contains chromium which is a mineral that plays a role in glucose metabolism, potentially aiding in stabilizing blood sugar levels. However, individual responses to dietary changes can vary.

Important

Remember to balance your meals with a variety of nutrition foods & maintain portion control  to support overall well-being during Ramadhan.
