Q

DIABETOGENIC EFFECT OF PREGNANCY

A
  • Metabolism directed towards supplying adequate nutrition to the fetus
  • Increased resistance to insulin
  • Compensatory increased production of insulin by
    the pancreas
  • Post Partum: Return to pre‐pregnant metabolism

Q

NUTRITION

A

Counseling by registered dietician/nutritional team if available

21
Q

NUTRITION

A
  • Follow prescribed diet plan

22
Q

NUTRITION ‐ Glycemic Index

A

Used to measure the effect of foods on blood sugar level
Low: 55 or less Medium: 56–69 High: 70 or above

23
Q

NUTRITION ‐ Glycemic Index

A
  • Foods high in refined carbs and sugar are digested more quickly and have a higher GI.
    *Other things that effect GI are: acidity, cooking time, how processed a food is , how ripe something is.
24
Q

NUTRITION ‐ Glycemic Load

A
  • (Grams of carbohydrate X Glycemic Index)/100 = Glycemic Load
    Low GL: 10 or less Medium GL: 11 to 19 High GL: 20 or higher
