Angeline Quinto revealed that she has recently been diagnosed with gestational diabetes.
In Angeline’s latest YouTube vlog titled “Life during pregnancy: Diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes,” the singer said that her diagnosis has something to do with her lifestyle, especially with her food intake.
“Nakakalungkot kasi nga mayroon daw akong gestational diabetes,” she said. “Siguro raw sa lifestyle, sa pagkain ko.”
“Lalona sa pagkain ko, aminado naman ako na medyo wala akong control ngayon kasi nga ang dami ko ring ginagawang work,” she added.
Angeline said that she has to change her lifestyle, especially during her pregnancy, because it could affect her soon-to-be-born baby. She started by hiring a nutritionist to monitor her food and keep an eye on her sugar level through a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) machine.
According to Cleveland Clinic, gestational diabetes is common among expectant mothers and is a type of diabetes “that develops in pregnancy when blood sugar level gets too high.”
In 2021, Meryll Soriano also opened up about acquiring gestational diabetes when she was pregnant with her second child at 38.
In April, Angeline and Nonrev Daquina got married in Quiapo church because the couple are both devotees of the Black Nazarene. They welcomed their first son in 2022.
In May, Angeline revealed they are expecting a baby girl through the “Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas” trend.
