<\/span><\/h2>\nPregnancy diabetes is an increasing clinical concern with long-term health consequences, including fetal and maternal complications. Pregnancy is a pseudodiabetic state that increases insulin resistance and decreases insulin sensitivity. Physical activity and diet during early pregnancy are key components of gestational diabetes prevention, and research has identified a wide range of interventions to help women achieve optimal weight gain during the early stages of pregnancy.<\/p>\n
Inositol is a naturally occurring pseudovitamin that is produced by the human body from D-glucose. It occurs in the brain, liver, and kidneys and was described as a second messenger. Inositol may improve insulin sensitivity and exert an insulin-like effect on metabolic enzymes. Therefore, supplementation of inositol during pregnancy can help prevent gestational diabetes.<\/p>\n
In addition to insulin, diet plays a crucial role in preventing gestational diabetes. Pregnancy-related diabetes is common among overweight women, and if you have high blood glucose during pregnancy, your risk of gestational diabetes increases.
