Gestational diabetes and pregnancy: Lifestyle interventions

A telehealth-based lifestyle intervention can significantly reduce excessive gestational weight gain relative to usual antenatal care, among pregnant women who are overweight or obese, US study findings indicate.

Findings from the ESTEEM trial suggest that consuming a Mediterranean-style diet may reduce gestational weight gain and lower the risk for gestational diabetes among pregnant women with metabolic risk factors.
