A Nephrologist, Dr Fung who primarily treats Diabetics with Kidney Disease has developed an Intermittent Fasting program for his Diabetic patients and is considered one of the leading experts on IF and Diabetes
However, this is not something to mess with using Google as your Medical and Nutritional Advice - some people should never use IF and for others it may be the best thing they could do
But you need to talk to your doctor who can advise your nutritionist as to your personal, medical situation and design you "custom" IF program to meet your goals, protect your health and not make any other comorbidities worse - and Google can't do that for you
So maybe a great a way to manage for you, but talk to your Doc "first"
And particularly if you take ANY Anti-Diabetic Meds, IF could cause a deadly overdose if you don't have carbs in your system when you have an excess of insulin (induced by the meds) - that Will Kill You
