Im 7 weeks and my MIL keeps giving me makhana roasted as a snack. I like it but just wanna be sure its okay this early na. Anyone been eating foxnuts in starting months? thoda confirm karna tha.
Yes, foxnuts or makhana are generally very safe and healthy. But in early pregnancy, it's always best to ask your gynac once before adding anything new to your daily diet, just to be fully safe.
I ate roasted makhana throughout my first trimester whenever I had mild hunger pangs. They really helped me manage my midday cravings without making me feel bloated.
They are excellent because they have a low glycemic index, which was very helpful for my PCOS history. Just dry roast them and avoid the store-bought salted ones to keep your sodium in check.
They are actually an amazing healthy snack! I roast them with a little ghee and black pepper. It's a great guilt-free option after my light evening walks, which my doctor highly recommended.
Foxnuts are highly nutritious as they are rich in calcium, iron, and protein. They are perfectly safe in early pregnancy. However, if you have any specific allergies or digestive issues, do consult your doctor.
Haan, makhana is very good and safe. No need to buy expensive imported snacks, just roast some makhana in ghar ka ghee. It keeps you full and is great for your bones too.
