Pregnancy guidance

Limit

Sweetened shredded dried coconut should be limited during pregnancy due to added sugars and high saturated fat. The added cane sugar increases blood glucose spikes while offering minimal maternal nutritional benefit. Keep portions small when baking or decorating desserts to manage glycemic balance. Choose unsweetened coconut flakes when you desire natural coconut flavor.
