Gestational Diabetes - Why Does It Happen? with Helena McDonald APD | Episode 98
Today’s episode is all about Gestational Diabetes or GD which can affect 15% of all pregnancies. And whilst it can be totally manageable, a diagnosis of GD may change the way you thought your pregnancy might look and the way we support you as dietitians with your nutrition and lifestyle.
We are excited to be joined by Helena McDonald APD on today's episode. Helena is a dietitian that provides tailored nutrition services to women navigating their
gestational diabetes and postpartum journey. Helena believes in prioritising the wellbeing of mothers so that they can thrive during their pregnancies, and beyond. Whether you are at a higher risk of GD for future pregnancy or just want to know more about this condition we hope you get so much out of this episode with our very knowledgeable guest, Helena!
