Det är en månad då troende vuxna muslimer ska fasta från det att solen går upp på morgonen tills den går ned på kvällen. Insulinbehandlade diabetiker blir avrådda från att fasta, men många gör det i alla fall. Vad får det för konsekvenser? För två år sedan undersökte en forskargrupp från Mellanöstern, Nordafrika och l
