Curious what the side effects of eating keto/low carb during pregnancy are? A less enjoyable pregnancy. 😉 And cutting carbs can actually negatively impact blood sugars. If your first thought is, “Leslee, what the heck? How can eating low carb RAISE my blood sugar?!” keep reading, and I’ll explain. Your body needs carbs to fuel all of your bodily functions, including growing a human! 👶🏻 And if you don’t get energy (carbs) through your diet consistently throughout the day, then your liver will dump glucose (sugar) into your bloodstream while you sleep - and that’s how you can see high numbers on a very low-carb plan.🤰🏼 In my Better Blood Sugar course, you’ll learn how to portion and pair carbs to lower blood sugar and how to enjoy sweets without a blood sugar spike... and SO much more!
