Is it okay to eat fried chicken when blood sugar levels are high?

Pregnant women with high blood sugar levels nearing delivery are not advised to eat fried chicken. As a fried food, fried chicken is high in both fat and calories. For pregnant women with elevated blood glucose levels, excessive intake of calories and fats may further raise blood sugar levels, increasing the risk of preterm birth or fetal growth restriction, and might even increase the likelihood of hereditary diabetes in the fetus. Therefore, to ensure maternal and fetal health, it is recommended that pregnant women closely monitor their diet when nearing delivery and having high blood sugar, strictly avoid fried foods such as fried chicken, and follow dietary advice from doctors or nutritionists. Additionally, appropriate physical activity also helps control blood sugar levels and promotes a healthy delivery. If there are any concerns or discomfort, it is advisable to promptly consult a doctor or nutritionist.
