Pregnant women who have never had diabetes may have the chance to develop gestational diabetes. Gestational diabetes occurs when the mother’s body is unable to make sufficient amount of insulin it needs during pregnancy. The baby could be at higher risk for health complications if the mother has gestational diabetes. The risk for the mother to develop Type 2 diabetes later in life is also increased. References:

Food consumed are broken down by our digestive system into sugar or particularly known as glucose and released into our bloodstream. If there is too much glucose in your blood and your body is unable to produce enough insulin (a hormone secreted by pancreas that allows your body to use the glucose for energy or for future uses), this insufficient production of insulin can cause diabetes over time.
