Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
Buttermilk can be taken during pregnancy, but you should be aware of how salt to add to it. salt is genrally restricted to avoid complications of Hypertension during delivery.
Since you have diabetes, Mango are generally to be avoided for it is high in Glycemic index
( which is 60, compared with normal to be below 50) will increase the sugar levels in the blood.
Hope i answered your query.
