glucose

Avatar f tn s definitely going to increase your chances of developing gestational diabetes. Which is bad for you and baby. Ive never fasted for a glucose test and always pass mine by like 30 points before what you need to pass. Just friends on the Person what your sugar normally runs which for your sounds like prly higher bc you don't eat healthy. So id suggest changing your eating habits before it's too late. Plus all the crap isn't good for the developing baby either.
1855970 tn?1325823613 I HAVE ANSWERS!!!! There is a mix all you need to do is is add cottage cheese, basil, cilantro, and cucumber. And blend it as if you were making a face maks but more like a lotion.
293845 tn?1227997530 It is a test for gestational diabetes. I don't know about false positives because it will actual give your glucose level. The drink is interesting. It's tastes like the syrup they put in pop (soda) without the carbonation. They usually refridgerate it so it's nice and cold. You have to drink it within 10-15 minutes and then they'll draw your blood an hour later!
Avatar f tn The orange one tastes like cough syrup it was NASSSTTY lol
8727253 tn?1400194561 it is a little nasty. but it wasn't that bad I thought. the worse part was the waiting after to do the test.
Avatar f tn so I have the glucose test comin up August 18 is there anything I should start doing now so I don't fail ?
Avatar f tn Stay away from heavily processed starches (pastas, cereals, breads) and get your carbs from healthy sources like sweet potatoes, spinach, peppers, and other vegetables. A white rice or quinoa would be alright in small amounts and in moderation. (I know people will rail against white rice but whole grain or brown rice contain too much anti-nutrients and can cause leaky gut syndrome) Make sure to eat those starches with protein and fat to help reduce the spikes of glucose.
Avatar f tn What should I expect from the glucose test? Is it nasty? Does it make you sick? Just wanna know your experience from the test.
315737 tn?1407298997 These changes are also thought to be markers for aging. The scientists say that it is the fructose molecule in the sucrose, not the glucose, that plays the larger part.20 Because it is metabolized by the liver, fructose does not cause the pancreas to release insulin the way it normally does. Fructose converts to fat more than any other sugar. This may be one of the reasons Americans continue to get fatter. Fructose raises serum triglycerides significantly.
Avatar n tn What is this glucose test I keep hearing about? I'm 25wk and I've not done it.
Avatar f tn re a healthy weight. It is called the one hour glucose tolerance test because your blood is drawn one hour after drinking the glucose drink. If you fail and have to do the three hour the draw your blood first, make you drink the drink, and then draw blood at specific time intervals throughout the next three hours. The purpose of the test is to see how your body responds to and processes a large amount of glucose.
Avatar n tn But the key to keeping your child healthy is to try to keep those glucose levels as normal as possible without risking severe hypoglycemia.
Avatar f tn s full of gmo corn syrup, FLAME RETARDANT and more high corn fructose corn syrup and other poisonous ingredients. Please check out food babe.com or Google food babe. It's sad that these "health professionals/fda" approve this sh*@ and give it pregnant women! I'm not taking it this time!
Avatar n tn s what I did and the gave me some syrup type of stuff it was based on glucose I think.
Avatar f tn The last couple days my urine has had a maple syrup smell to it. I had a waffle with some maple syrup on it yesterday morning, but this is the first time, even when eating the waffles earlier in this pregnancy, that this has happened. Any one else experience this and if so what happened?
Avatar f tn It's kind of like a melted freezie pop. It's a sugary syrup but not quite as thick as table syrup. My advice is take small sips and wait 5-10 seconds between sips. They give you 5 minutes to drink it, which is a lot of time. Even doing the small sips I finished in about 2.5-3 minutes. My friend chugged it and then after 20 minutes she barfed and had to do it again.
Avatar f tn And did you have any after affects of the sweet syrup nasty crap?? Like I feel nauseated, and burping a LOT and occasionally I get really really hot and feel like I'll pass out... Has anyone experienced this at all?? I also just found out that I have chlamydia o.o my ob has prescribed me a one time dose of medication that I'll be picking up and taking tomorrow.
6832940 tn?1389242354 Thanks :) I'm trying just wish these drs didn't leave us with so many ?
Avatar m tn are more concerned about everything else I have been doing my own trials and discovered that if my glucose is high or too low the itching becomes unbearable from head to toe. Anyone out there hear of anything like this? Cannot sleep, concentrate or even go out in public itching like this. Thank you for taking the time to read this. P.S. - Cannot get glucose to level out either.
Tbd Yes, sodas contain high-fructose corn syrup which is a simple sugar. This means that it is rapidly metabolized resulting in a rapid increase in blood glucose. This in turn leads to the rapid release of insulin which performs the role of "escorting" the glucose into your cells in order to produce ATP. Simply stated, ATP is what fuels our bodies.
Avatar m tn What is your reaction to HONEY and to High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS), which is used as sweetener in several commercial foods (yoghurts, chocolates, drinks, any packaged food...)? ------------------------------------------------- Anyone, who have problems with fruits, invited to answer to above questionaire.
Avatar f tn tomorrow morning I go for my 1 hour glucose test! Can anyone tell me what I'm going to have to do? I'm aware you drink a syrup kind of drink.. Do they give you a blood test or do you pee in a cup? I have a fear of needles, granted I'm ok with it because it's for my twins! I just want to know before I go so their is no surprises!
1829282 tn?1325591658 Glucose is the only fuel normally used by brain cells. Because neurons cannot store glucose, they depend on the bloodstream to deliver a constant supply. This blood sugar is obtained from carbohydrates: the starches and sugars you eat in the form of grains and legumes, fruits and vegetables. The only animal foods containing a significant amount of carbohydrates are dairy products.
Avatar f tn My midwives test by having you fast like normal, do the finger prick, then go out and eat a big breakfast with lots of carbs - like pancakes and syrup and OJ etc - in place of the syrup drink. That makes much more sense to me.
Avatar f tn If you eat breakfast it will mess us your results. This is in the UK though not sure where this page is based.
Avatar f tn Sorry if this is a silly question but for those of you who have gestational diabetes, did you have any symptoms or did you know that you had it before you found out? I'm on my 3rd pregnancy. My first born was 9lb 1oz and my second was 9lb 13oz so they want to give me a glucose test to find out if I have gestational diabetes with this one (I haven't had it before) and to keep an eye on its growth.
Avatar f tn Awesome. I'm exhausted from not being able to sleep and coughing so much.
