My saas keeps adding saunf in everything saying its good for digestion. But now im pregnant and not sure if its safe in this much quantity. Anyone knows?
During my IVF journey, I became extremely careful and didn't consume anything herbal in large quantities. A pinch of anise seeds in food or tea is usually considered safe, but please avoid concentrated anise oils or supplements. Always err on the side of caution and ask your clinic first.
Oh, I completely panicked when I accidentally ate a whole bowl of saunf-coated sweets in my first trimester! But my doctor laughed and said small culinary amounts are absolutely fine. Just don't start drinking boiled anise water or herbal teas in large quantities.
I also had PCOS and was super cautious about everything I ate. In small food quantities, anise is perfectly safe, but since it has mild hormonal properties, don't take it as a medicine or heavy tea. Best to just ask your doctor if you're planning to take it regularly.
Mere ghar me toh dadi kehti hain saunf khane se digestion accha rehta hai, but in limit. She always made sure I had just a pinch after meals to prevent acidity. But she also warned never to drink heavy herbal mixtures, so keep it very light and talk to your doctor if you're unsure.
Acidity and nausea made my life hell, so chewing a tiny bit of anise (saunf) after food was a lifesaver for me. Just make sure you are not consuming it in large doses or concentrated extracts, as that can be risky. If your nausea is too severe, please ask your doctor for safe pregnancy-safe options instead.
Humare yahan toh khane me thoda saunf daalna bilkul normal hai, beta. Isse acidity me bhi aaram milta hai. Bas thoda sa hi khana, zyada mat lena kyunki pregnancy me har cheez ka dhyan rakhna padta hai.
I totally understand wanting to check everything you eat during this precious time, dear! Taking a tiny bit of anise (saunf) as a mouth freshener after meals is generally fine, but don't eat it in huge amounts. Just listen to your body and keep yourself happy and healthy.
Keeping up with twins meant I had to stay practical and not overthink every single spice in my pantry! Anise in food is totally fine, but don't go brewing massive pots of herbal decoctions thinking it's a miracle cure for digestion. When in doubt, just stick to plain warm water, haha.
