Patient's question:
When pregnant, the doctor advised not to eat foods with high sugar content. I would like to consult whether gestational diabetes can eat cherries?Doctor's answer:
What can pregnant women with gestational diabetes eat? Avoid hot fruits like oranges, which are cold in nature. Choose selectively cold fruits. Watermelon has a high sugar content, and excessive consumption can easily lead to gestational diabetes. In early pregnancy, it's better for pregnant women to eat more neutral fruits like plum. If blood sugar control is poor, it's best not to eat water. When blood sugar control is ideal, you can eat water in sufficient amount. The time to eat fruits should be between meals, and you can eat more fruits rich in vitamins, such as kiwi.
