Can pregnant women with high blood sugar eat fermented crackers?
Disease description:
I usually like to eat some pastries in the afternoon, but today when I went to the hospital for my prenatal checkup, I found that my blood sugar was a bit high. So I'd like to ask, can I eat fermented crackers if I have high blood sugar during pregnancy?

Pregnant women with high blood glucose can choose to consume fermented crackers in moderation. This is mainly because fermented crackers are starchy foods that break down into sugar after digestion in the intestines, which may have some impact on blood glucose levels. While consuming these crackers, it is important to reduce intake of other staple foods to prevent abnormal blood sugar fluctuations. Patients with high blood glucose can also include more high-fiber foods in their daily diet, as this helps control blood sugar levels.
