My mom keeps insisting I soak badam at night and eat in the morning for the baby's brain. I do like them but wanted to check how many is okay daily. Is too much almond fine during pregnancy?
My clinical dietician at the hospital suggested having a handful of soaked and peeled almonds daily. But I still asked my gynecologist during my consult just to be 100% sure about the quantity. The hospital staff said it's very safe and helps with baby's brain development, so definitely go for it.
According to my pregnancy app, almonds are amazing during pregnancy because they are packed with folate, vitamin E, and fiber. I used to track my daily intake of 4-5 soaked almonds every morning to make sure I got my healthy fats. It's a great snack to add to your daily diet tracker!
I'm currently in my second trimester and I eat about 5-6 soaked almonds every morning, but I still get slightly anxious if I'm eating too many warm foods. My mom says they are completely safe if soaked, but does anyone else still feel a bit nervous about eating nuts daily?
Almonds are so good for health, ho na! I used to soak them overnight and peel them in the morning because my MIL said it's better for digestion. Aap bhi roz thode se soaked badam khaya karo, baby ke liye accha hota hai, haan na.
Honestly, almonds are great, but my sleep-deprived brain used to forget to soak them overnight half the time! If you can remember to soak them, they are a fantastic, healthy snack. Just eat them directly if you forget to peel them like I did, no stress!
