Factors associated with dietary glycemic index and glycemic load in pregnant women and risk for gestational diabetes mellitus

The risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increases during the second trimester of pregnancy. However, the role of dietary glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) on GDM risk is controversial. We aimed to determine the association of established risk factors of GDM with GI and GL among heal...
