Can pregnant women with high blood sugar eat almonds and cashews?
Disease description:
I am a pregnant woman with gestational diabetes. Someone gave me some almonds and cashews, but I'm not sure if I can eat them. May I ask if pregnant women with high blood sugar can consume almonds and cashews?

Pregnant women with high blood sugar can consume almonds and cashews in moderation, but should pay attention to controlling the intake amount. Almonds and cashews, as nut products, are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, which are beneficial to maternal health. Due to their high fat and calorie content, excessive consumption may affect blood sugar control. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant women consume almonds and cashews in moderation and avoid eating large quantities. At the same time, pregnant women should maintain a balanced diet and consume more foods rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals to help stabilize blood sugar levels and ensure nutritional balance. If necessary, pregnant women should also follow their doctor's guidance for dietary adjustments and treatment plans.
