Nutrition help early in pregnancy to prevent diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether starting a special nutrition plan early in pregnancy and following it closely can lower the risk of developing gestational diabetes (diabetes that starts during pregnancy). If you are in the nutrition group, you will get extra support and guidance about healthy eating, which may help you and your baby stay healthy.
