Description

Hongli Hou, writing alone, links a plant-rich diet score in early pregnancy to diabetes risk during pregnancy, in a twenty twenty-five study. The score counts the share of daily energy from whole grains, fruit, vegetables, beans, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. Hou followed 2,770 pregnant women at a Shanxi health center and recorded their diets with a standard food survey. Diabetes of pregnancy was checked with a sugar test in mid pregnancy.

About fourteen percent of the women developed the condition. Each ten percent rise in the plant score linked to fourteen percent lower odds of it. Higher scores also linked to fewer cases of low blood sugar in newborns and to healthier blood measures in mothers. The author backs plant-rich eating early in pregnancy.
