Summary

This study aims to investigate whether high-morning carbohydrate intake (HMK) compared with low-morning carbohydrate intake (LMK) affects glycemic variability in GDM patients based on Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).

High carbohydrate morning intake is expected to reduce hyperglycemic episodes and stabilize blood glucose compared with low morning carbohydrate intake.

Conditions

  • Diabetes, Gestational

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

High/low carbohydrate distribution

A total of 2x3 days, were the patient follow a detailed diet plan. For 3 days they follow a diet plan where the majority of the carbohydrates are located on either the first part of the day(HMK) or the last part of the day(LMK). 4 days of washout are placed between the two interventions. They will not receive food but will be guided by a trained dietitian and the use of a meal plan.
