Dietary intakes and physical activity of women with gestational diabetes are not associated with continuous glucose monitoring metrics; secondary analysis of the DiGest trial
Women with GDM consumed a diet low in calories, carbohydrates, and fibre but high in saturated fat. PAEE was lower than the background, non-pregnant female population. Diet and PA were not associated with CGM metrics, highlighting the need for optimisation to short-term and long-term metabolic function in women with GDM.
