We frequently see various articles and speeches in the media about the harmfulness of sugar loading tests. But these are completely unreal; Sugar loading test is recommended because it is standard. Fasting and postprandial glucose measurement does not give a standard value; factors such as the amount and type of carbohydrates in the food we eat and its proportion in the total meal we eat affect the measurement. In addition, the measurement made in the second hour gives the average of satiety. Since the important factor for us is how much the sugar rises and falls, we cannot see the maximum and minimum values.
Determining whether there is gestational diabetes with the sugar loading test performed during pregnancy is especially It is of great importance for the fetus. The risk of fetal anomalies and miscarriage increases in people who are not followed well. The amount of sugar given in the sugar loading test is lower than that contained in 2 cans of cola, fruit juice and the like, and I wonder in which pregnant woman the amount of sugar taken at this rate causes miscarriage. On the contrary, in undetected gestational diabetes, the increase in sugar that occurs at every meal constantly harms the fetus like a wave hitting the shore.
Unfortunately, since we are unfortunately frequently faced with the risk of miscarriage due to undetected gestational diabetes, please please. Please do not rely too much on the information you receive, especially from the internet and the media.
