Why a blog on GD?

I thought of writing something on diet for Gestational Diabetes (GD) when my daughter-in-law had GD last year. Being a vegetarian, she had very little choice when it came to American hospital diet. She was admitted in the hospital on the 26th week of gestation with high GD and for about 3 weeks, I had to manage her diet with proper calculation of carbohydrate, protein and fibre.With proper guidance and wonderful cooperation from her dietitian, we could keep her glucose level under control. She delivered a girl baby on her 29th week, and both mother and daughter are doing great today.

HEALTHY  FIVE GRAINS VADAI – A VARIATION
Follow the same procedure given in five grains vadai below, but do not soak moong dhal with other grains.
Soak the moong dhal separately.When the dough is ready, drain the soaked moong dhal and add to the dough without grinding it. Then pat the dough into small vadais and finish. It will give a very grispy  variant of five grains vadai.
