High blood sugar during pregnancy and gestational diabetes are worrying for many pregnant women and their families. Because gestational diabetes affects not only the pregnant women themselves, but also the growth and development of the fetus, poor blood sugar control during pregnancy will lead to fetal malformation, macrosomia, polyhydramnios, hydatidiform mole and even stillbirth. In this way, controlling blood sugar in gestational diabetes should be done from beginning to end.

When it comes to high blood sugar in pregnancy, we have to say treatment. At present, there are only two methods to treat gestational diabetes, one is diet and exercise control, and the other is insulin injection. Then, many patients with high blood sugar during pregnancy have resistance to insulin, so they have been controlling their diet and exercise, and some people can control it. When it comes to diet, many patients have asked me in clinic, just in time for summer, when the corn is ripe, I really can't resist the temptation. Whether I can eat corn in the end puzzles many greedy expectant mothers. Today, Dr. Zhou will tell you that pregnant women with high blood sugar can eat corn. Is it a surprise? Are you happy? Haha, no problem. Pregnant women with hyperglycemia can eat corn, because corn is rich in crude fiber, and its soluble sugar is low, which is not enough to raise blood sugar. Therefore, expectant mothers can not eat it, but it is very suitable for eating. Corn is rich in cellulose, which can not only stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis, relieve constipation, but also promote cholesterol metabolism and discharge toxins from the body. Corn is also rich in vitamins, which is good for fetal development.
