Gestational Diabetes Test ?
💊 Did you drink this for your gestational diabetes test when you were pregnant? I had no idea how utterly toxic it is... 🤢 a friend has told me:
This glucose “drink” contains things like:
❌ Brominated vegetable oil (BVO) which is a FLAME RETARDANT 🔥, and BANNED in Europe and Japan
❌ BVO contains Bromine which is known to cause thyroid dysfunction, has been associated with heart lesions, liver dysfunction, impaired growth and behavioral development, and neurological and fertility issues!
❌ Other ingredients include: artificial flavors and colors, and high fructose GMO corn syrup
You have other options mama! Be empowered ❤️Here are some better alternatives:
🤰🏻Hemoglobin A1C test- simple blood test done in your first trimester to assess your risk for gestational diabetes
🤰🏻EAT WELL 🥕🥒 🥑 and do random glucose testing which you can do yourself at home with a simple finger prick
🤰🏻”The Jelly Bean Test” Where you swap the drink out for 28 jelly beans, which provides the 50 grams of sugar required for the traditional test. Be sure to get organic, NON-GMO and naturally-colored jelly beans 🍭
There is absolutely NO reason for you to need to drink this toxic chemical cocktail 🙅🏻 Now that you’re informed, you can better protect you and sweet baby 👶🏼
❓ So can we eat any organic candy that is 50 gr sugar without all the harmful ingredients? Here anyone has already tried this option?
