Can I eat goose eggs at 35 weeks of pregnancy if my blood sugar is high?
Disease description:
I'm already 35 weeks pregnant, and these days I've been experiencing dizziness and nausea, with a rapid heartbeat at times. I'm worried about potential issues with fetal development. Upon checking, my blood sugar levels were slightly high. Previously, I consumed goose eggs daily. I would like to know if it's safe to eat goose eggs at 35 weeks of pregnancy when blood sugar levels are elevated.

Pregnant women with high blood sugar at 35 weeks of gestation can consume goose eggs in moderation. Goose eggs are rich in various nutrients such as protein, vitamin A, vitamin E, lecithin, iron, and calcium, which are beneficial to the health of both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Particularly, the high protein content in goose eggs helps supplement the pregnant woman's protein levels and enhance immunity. Meanwhile, the lecithin in goose eggs also promotes the fetal brain development. Pregnant women should pay attention to the following points when consuming goose eggs:
1. Principle of moderation: Although goose eggs are nutritious, their intake should be controlled to avoid excessive consumption that may cause blood sugar fluctuations or increase gastrointestinal burden.
2. Cooking methods: It is recommended to use healthy cooking methods such as steaming or boiling, and avoid high-calorie methods such as frying.
3. Individual differences: If a pregnant woman is allergic to protein or has high cholesterol levels, she should avoid consuming goose eggs.
