Can I take glucose during pregnancy?

When you are pregnant, no matter what kind of medicine you use, you should follow the doctor's advice. Never use some medicines at home at will, or take some Chinese herbal medicines to maintain your body. These will have some bad effects. In severe cases, it will directly lead to miscarriage in pregnant women. Even glucose should be used with the consent of a doctor.

Pregnant women should not use over-the-counter drugs casually. All medication should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.

When treating, drugs that cause little harm to the embryo or fetus should be selected.

When using drugs, the minimum effective dose and shortest effective treatment course should be used to avoid blindly using large doses and long periods of time, and avoid combined use of drugs.

Unless necessary for medical reasons, try to avoid taking medication in early pregnancy.

The concentration of the drug in maternal serum is related to the amount that passes through the placenta to the fetus. If local medication is effective, avoid systemic medication.

You should read the "Drug Instructions" in detail before taking any medication, and try not to use medications that are "for use with caution during pregnancy and mothers" or "contraindicated during pregnancy and mothers."

If the mother's disease infects the fetus, safe drugs should be selected, and the drug concentration in the fetus and amniotic fluid should be close to that in the mother, so that both mother and child can be treated.

Drugs that have been widely used in pregnant women for many years should be used, and drugs for which it is difficult to determine whether they have adverse effects on the embryo, fetus, or newborn should be avoided as much as possible. Drugs that have only been theoretically evaluated should be used with caution.

1. Protein

Protein is the main component of human cells, and the amino acids in protein are also important for the development of fetal brain cells. Lack of protein in pregnant women will affect pituitary gonadotropin, reduce estrogen and progesterone, and in severe cases may lead to termination of pregnancy.

2. Minerals (selenium, iron, iodine, calcium, zinc)

3. Sugar

Sugar is carbohydrate, the main source of calories for the human body, and is very important for the health of pregnant women and the development of the fetus. Ensuring 450 to 500 grams of staple food every day can ensure the intake of carbohydrates.

4. Fat

Fat can provide energy and is an important component of cells. Pregnant women should add 20 to 30 grams of fat to their diet every day, but it is best not to exceed 50 grams to avoid increasing the burden on the liver or causing obesity. Foods rich in fat include fatty meat, milk, nuts, cooking oil, etc.

5. Vitamins

Vitamin A, B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E.

6. Amino Acids

Methionine can help break down fat, prevent fatty liver, cardiovascular disease and kidney disease; remove harmful substances such as lead and other heavy metals; prevent muscle weakness; treat rheumatic fever and blood poisoning during pregnancy; a powerful antioxidant. It can reduce problems such as obesity, hyperglycemia, and gestational hypertension in pregnant women during the perinatal period.

Histidine can promote the early improvement of the baby's immune system function, strengthen physiological metabolic function, stabilize the rhythm of protein utilization in the body, and promote the baby's body development.

Folic acid is a member of the vitamin B complex. If pregnant women do not receive adequate folic acid supplementation, it can easily lead to fetal malformations, intellectual disabilities, low birth weight in infants, and even miscarriage in severe cases. Pregnant women in the second trimester are prone to gestational hypertension, megaloblastic anemia, etc.

Supplement time: three months before pregnancy and three months after pregnancy. Supplementary amount: 400~800 micrograms per day. Avoid excessive intake.
