Are you planning for a healthy future too?
Pregnancy is physiologically and nutritionally, a demanding stage. Additional food is required to meet the nutritional needs of the mother and for the healthy development of the fetus. Hence, a balanced diet is a must for a pregnant lady.
The nutritional demand during pregnancy increases with trimester and this needs to be taken care of. Every trimester has different nutritional requirements for example an additional 350 Kcal is required during the 2nd and 3rd trimesters.
With a change in lifestyle patterns, complications during pregnancy have also increased. Gestational diabetes (GDM) is one such condition that is defined as Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. This can be detrimental for both mother and the fetus, if not managed on time. Medical Nutrition Therapy is the first line of treatment for GDM.
At The Basic Meals, We provide individualized Medical Nutrition Therapy. MNT primarily involves a controlled balanced meal plan that promotes Optimal nutrition for maternal and fetal health along with stress management, guidance on physical activity, and adequate sleeping patterns as these are key factors in the management of GDM.
