LESSON PREVIEW
4. d. the approach that best helps the patient control blood glucose levels.
Rationale: In diabetes, meeting daily nutritional requirements is not sufficient. Diabetes is a metabolic syndrome that requires an
alternative approach that must focus on controlling sugar levels. It needs interventions like diet plans that are devised
according to the glucose levels and the patient's needs. The devised meal plan should be regularly managed according to the
glucose levels.
5. b. restricting carbohydrate to about 30 grams at breakfast
Rationale: The body is the most sensitive to carbohydrates in the morning. Therefore, for a woman with gestational diabetes, it is
recommended to restrict the carbohydrates to 80 grams during breakfast. This can be very helpful in maintaining glucose
levels.
