Dr. Pan Yongyuan
During pregnancy, it is advisable to limit consumption of instant noodles, as they are high-calorie, deep-fried foods. Excessive intake may lead to dyslipidemia, abnormal blood glucose levels, metabolic syndrome, and metabolic disorders—thereby interfering with glycemic control. It is recommended to consume more dietary-fiber-rich foods, such as coarse vegetables and whole grains.
