Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for three months, and the whole family is very happy. So they are giving me a lot of supplements, and my diet is very good every day. But there's a problem: I've gained too much weight. I always feel very tired and don't like exercising. Recently, I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said my blood sugar is a bit high.What kind of help do I need: What fruits are good for pregnant women with high blood sugar?
Doctor's answer:
The staple diet consists of coarse grains, noodles, and porridge. Additionally, foods like onions, potatoes, Chinese yam, konjac, nori, and wheat bran are suitable for high blood sugar diets. It is not advisable to consume foods that can cause blood sugar to drop rapidly, such as white sugar, brown sugar, rock sugar, glucose, maltose, chocolate, milk candy, fruit candy, soda, fruit juice, sweet drinks, jam, ice cream, sweet biscuits, cakes, sweet bread, and sugar-coated pastries. Gestational diabetes is a special type of diabetes, and if blood sugar levels are too high during pregnancy, it can lead to complications such as macrosomia, miscarriage, or polyhydramnios. It is recommended to strictly control blood sugar and maintain a balanced nutrition. At the same time, dietary restrictions should be applied, and smaller, more frequent meals are advisable.
