Pregnancy guidance

Limit

Creme-filled sponge snack cakes should be strictly limited while you are pregnant. These packaged treats are heavily processed, containing large amounts of added sugars, refined palm oils, and preservatives with negligible nutritional value. The USDA Dietary Guidelines recommend limiting processed snack cakes to prevent sharp blood sugar spikes and unhealthy gestational weight gain. Satisfy mid-afternoon sweet cravings with whole grain toast and sliced banana instead.
