If pregnant women don't pay attention to their diet during pregnancy, they often eat a lot of nourishing foods and overeat, and they will easily suffer from gestational hyperglycemia. If they don't control their blood sugar in time, they will soon develop into diabetes. Therefore, pregnant women should control their diet, avoid eating foods with high blood sugar and high fat, eat light foods and eat foods with low glycemic index.

If pregnant women's blood sugar is high, they are likely to suffer from diabetes if they are not controlled in time. If pregnant women with hyperglycemia eat properly, they can prevent blood sugar from rising. Therefore, pregnant women should know what food to eat is good for controlling blood sugar. Here are some dietary taboos for pregnant women with hyperglycemia, and everyone should understand them carefully.

Pregnant women with hyperglycemia should not eat foods with high sugar content. Candies, desserts, cakes or other foods with high sugar content should be avoided as far as possible, otherwise the blood sugar may be greatly increased, and excessive consumption of foods with high sugar content will also greatly increase the weight of pregnant women and cause obesity.

In addition, pregnant women should also avoid eating high-fat foods and reduce the intake of animal fat. Eat less greasy food and fried food. Also, don't eat more foods with high cholesterol, such as animal viscera, and pregnant women should eat as little as possible. Although fruits are nutritious, pregnant women should avoid eating fruits with high sugar content, such as longan and litchi.

To control the problem of high blood sugar, pregnant women should eat more fungi and algae foods, such as mushrooms, fungus, kelp, Flammulina velutipes, laver, etc., which can stabilize blood sugar. You can also eat some foods rich in cellulose, such as leeks, celery, spinach, oats and other foods, which have the effect of lowering blood sugar. Pregnant women with high blood sugar should eat more fruits and vegetables, and try to eat more red fruits, such as apples, cherries, oranges and pitaya, which is very good for lowering blood sugar.

Understanding the glycemic index of food plays an important role in controlling blood sugar. For example, the glycemic index of ordinary wheat noodles is 8 1, while the glycemic index of high protein noodles is 37. Pregnant women with hyperglycemia can choose staple foods with low glycemic index, such as buckwheat noodles, macaroni, pasta and jiaozi, which are suitable for eating. Rice can be cooked with buckwheat kernels or mung beans. Eat less staple foods with high glycemic index, such as glutinous rice, bread made of refined flour, steamed bread and rice congee. Eat staple food with some vegetables and animal foods, which can also help lower blood sugar. It is recommended to eat at least one hypoglycemia staple food every day, such as buckwheat noodles and macaroni for breakfast. You can choose pasta, rice or jiaozi with meat for lunch or dinner.

Pregnant women with hyperglycemia should strictly control their food intake. Dried fruits, sweet drinks, biscuits, cakes, ice cream, etc. should be avoided. Eating fruits should also choose fruits with low sugar content and low glycemic index, preferably during meals or before going to bed. If you eat fruits, you should reduce the staple food accordingly. In addition, properly increasing acidity when cooking food can also reduce the glycemic index of food, such as adding vinegar or lemon juice to cook food.
