I had GD. I was worried of the sugar in fresh coconut too. But surprisingly after drinking i measure my sugar level, it did not increase. So i drank alot after knowing its safe for me. U can test first. Everyone body reacts differently. All the best mummy!

Please go for fresh coconut water. Canned ones contain added sugar not recommended for mummies with GDM.

Fresh coconut water I think can. The coconut meat try to avoid it.

Should be fine to drink fresh ones but do check with your gynae

Would be better to avoid it. Coconut water has a lot of sugar.
