Grape juice for gestational diabetes screening
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests if a grape juice drink can be used instead of the standard sugary drink for gestational diabetes screening between weeks 24 and 28 of pregnancy. It might be a more natural and palatable option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
