Are gestational diabetes patients hungry?

People with gestational diabetes are prone to hunger.

Because diabetes is a metabolic disease, it affects the body's use and storage of energy. In gestational diabetes, blood sugar control may be affected due to insufficient insulin secretion or insulin resistance, causing the body to not fully utilize glucose to provide energy. Therefore, patients may often feel hungry, especially after meals or exercise.

For gestational diabetes, it is recommended to choose foods with a low glycemic index in their diet, such as whole-grain bread, oatmeal, fruits, vegetables, etc., to help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
