How to arrange diet for high blood sugar during pregnancy?
Pay attention to controlling diet and timely adjusting dietary structure. For pregnant mothers with high blood sugar, please follow these points:
1. Eat less and more frequently, dividing daily food intake into 5-6 meals.Because eating too much at once can cause a rapid rise in blood sugar, while fasting for too long can lead to hunger-induced ketosis. It is best to have 3 main meals and 3 small meals.
2. Eat less meat, more vegetables, and consume fruits between meals.High-sugar fruits should be avoided, such as sugarcane, watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, cherries, etc.; increase dietary fiber intake, such as vegetables, low-sugar fruits, seaweed, and legumes, which are rich in dietary fiber and have a good effect on lowering blood sugar.
3. Avoid sucrose, granulated sugar, fructose, glucose, rock sugar, honey, chocolate, maltose beverages, and sweets.You can drink two cups of milk daily to supplement sufficient calcium.
5. Foods high in starch.Generally include foods like fava beans, potatoes, vermicelli, baked gluten, and oil gluten. Pregnant women with high blood sugar should avoid these foods and eliminate excessive sugar intake, such as chocolate, white sugar, candied fruits, sweet bread, and cakes.
