Hi

It all depends on her medical conditions like diabetes,hormonal causes ,BMI. etc.
If she doesn't have any medical or hormonal causes and normal BMI ,she need to take Folic acid supplementation for the sake of baby.
She should avoid junk foods, Carbonated drinks and if possible bakery items.
Smoking and alcohol is prohibited.

All other normal foods and seasonal fruits can be used.A balanced diet has to be the aim.
Hope my answer helps you
