We have listed down some of the common mistakes which you should avoid during this fast which can prove bad for your health.

Do not avoid medicines

If you are a diabetic, it is very important for the patient to take medication regularly else it can affect your health badly. Apart from this, to prevent your health from deteriorating, you must include protein-rich food items in Sargi.

Check sugar level constantly

Patients suffering from diabetes are advised to check their blood sugar levels two to three times a day. Due to the busy schedule of fasting and performing other rituals, women often forget to check their blood sugar levels. If your blood sugar level is low, you can drink milk.

Consult doctor

If you are a diabetic patient, you must consult your doctor before fasting. Health experts advise patients suffering from diabetes not to keep a waterless fast. Instead of keeping a waterless fast, you can do normal fasting, that is, you can control your blood sugar level by including fruits in your diet.
