When conducting the two-step approach, the 50-gram glucose beverage should be consumed within 5 minutes. A plasma glucose measurement is then be performed at 1-hour. This test is performed at your laboratory or physician's office. Consult with your healthcare provider for more details. Please note, the 50-gram, 75-gram & 100-gram glucose tests have different requirements.
If you are a healthcare professional and have more questions about the ADA's screening and diagnosis of GDM please refer to the 2021 Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes.

Women are becoming increasingly health conscious, especially during pregnancy. Consumers frequently request a natural glucose option to have a better screening experience.
This has long been sought after due to the taste of traditional glucose beverages and unnecessary ingredients such as conventional GMO corn, Brominated vegetable oil, Red Dye #40, BHA, BPA, Sodium Benzoates, etc.
The majority of traditional glucolas were developed in the 1960s and our team felt it was time for a more natural option. As health conscious individuals, please do your homework on the aforementioned ingredients. Please visit our Nutrition Facts page for more information.
