Question
If blood sugar levels are high two hours after meals during pregnancy, when should one go for a follow-up blood sugar test, and should the fasting blood sugar or post-meal blood sugar be checked during the test?
Answer
Patients with diabetes should pay attention to eating smaller, more frequent meals, and follow a diet low in salt, fat, and sugar, while avoiding high-energy and high-starch foods. It is recommended to consult a nutritionist at a diabetes specialty hospital to develop an individualized diet plan for precise evaluation of the condition and standardized treatment.
