Why Smart Snacking Matters for Gestational Diabetes

Managing gestational diabetes (GD) doesn’t mean giving up delicious snacks! The key is choosing foods that combine:

✔ Lean protein – Helps stabilize blood sugar and keeps you full longer
✔ Healthy fats – Slows digestion and prevents blood sugar spikes
✔ Fiber-rich, complex carbs – Provides steady energy without sudden glucose spikes

This balance ensures your snacks satisfy cravings, maintain steady blood sugar levels, and support your baby’s growth.

Key Takeaways

✅ Snacking is essential for steady blood sugar and meeting increased pregnancy calorie needs.
✅ Balancing macronutrients (complex carbs, protein, and healthy fats) helps prevent glucose spikes.
✅ Prepackaged snacks & bedtime snacks can be convenient while keeping blood sugar stable.
✅ Consulting a dietitian can provide personalized guidance for your GD-friendly diet.
