Have Fun Before the Baby Comes

You’re pregnant and you’re wondering if it’s alright to travel.  Now is definitely the time, actually, before that baby comes and creates chaos in all areas of your life. You should certainly consult with your obstetrician before booking the trip. 

As a general rule, it’s alright to travel until your 36^th week, assuming that you are having an uncomplicated, healthy pregnancy.

Assuming that your doctor has given you the go-ahead, keep these tips in mind.  As Cinergy Health advises, make sure to stay hydrated, especially if you are flying.  Move around every few hours, whether you’re driving in a car or flying somewhere.  Otherwise, blood can pool in your legs and that’s certainly not to your benefit.  Some doctors recommend compression travel socks as they force blood to your leg’s deep veins and reduce pooling of blood. 

Bon voyage and have fun!

Cinergy Health Offers Advice for Diabetics

If you have a sweet tooth and you are diabetic, you’re certainly up against a challenge.  However, with careful planning, you can still have some of the sweets you love and maintain a healthy lifestyle with your diabetes.  

While the American Diabetes Association used to show every concern with table sugar, they have now come to explain that it’s the total amount of carbohydrates in the foods that you eat that raises the blood glucose levels.

This means, as Cinergy Health explains, that you need to look at portion sizes and carbohydrate counting.  With the right planning and calculations, you can still have some of those sweets that you enjoy.  Certainly, however, you don’t want to go crazy and you may want to meet with a nutritionist to figure out exactly how to plan out the meals for each day.

Enjoy your favorite foods so that you don’t end up feeling deprived – but do so in moderation.  Consider, as well, using artificial sweeteners more often than sugars for those moments when you want a sugar fix.
