GESTATIONAL DIABETES | 5 Mistakes to avoid in your gestational diabetes diet

So you've been diagnosed with gestational diabetes and now you're hyper conscious of everything you eat in case it raises your blood sugar.

You might have been given some vague advice to "just eat healthy" or "reduce carbs" and you might be doing okay at avoiding regular spikes.

But here's the thing.

Eating for gestational diabetes isn't quite that simple.

For the best chance at regulating your blood sugar AND giving you and your baby the best health outcomes, your diet needs to be ticking quite a few boxes!

In this episode I unpack key mistakes to avoid so that you can thrive with your gestational diabetes diet, rather than just get by.

Enjoy!
