Guatemala Glucola Gana
As found in a comedrona’s (midwife’s) clinic, glucose challenges for diabetes in pregnant woman use coconut flavored water, instead of the orange-flavored stuff in the US. Score one point for Central American medicine.

This is a medical weblog--a collection of thoughts about medicine, medical training, and health policy--written by a fifth-year medical student.
I recently stopped blogging, as I graduated from medical school and I'm now a physician in my residency training in New York City. But feel free to read and enjoy!

Hey Graham,
I remember you mentioning wanting to sell your photography to make a few bucks. Well, I can’t say I would invest in that but what you should consider is charging a few bucks to edit personal statements. (hehe) After reading yours, I would LOVE for you to provide some feedback on mine! If you have some free time and want to make a few bucks, let the pre-med world know! ;-)

Speaking as someone who’s administered hundreds of those gestational diabetes tests, I honestly think that pregnant women would complain regardless of the taste. “It’s just too sugary!”
But it’s certainly way more original than ours!
I wonder if I am the only one who never minded the sugary drink. It did make me feel a little queasy after I drank it each time but I thought it tasted ok.
