I have had gestation diabetics before. I am currently six months pregnant and my doctors said that my blood sugar is 9 milimols. What precautions should I take especially on diet to avoid this condition again?

Eat a balanced diet that is high in fibre like fruits and vegetables, whole grains eg brown rice and try and eat a protein with every meal to slow down the break down of sugar in the body. Cut down your intake of refined carbohydrates, limit your sugar intake, and make sure you are exercising – even if it is walking daily. Keep in close contact with your health provider to ensure that you are well monitored
