Just entered my 16th week and my mom packed a whole box of badam, kaju, walnuts for me. Im happy to eat but not sure how much is too much at this stage. Anyone know whats ok daily?
Yes dear, my family insisted on soaked almonds and dates every morning from the fourth month. They say it is good for the baby brain. Just have them in moderate amounts.
Dry fruits are healthy but dates and raisins are sugary, so if you have any sugar issue keep them limited. I stuck to almonds and walnuts mostly. For others a few dates a day is lovely.
Absolutely, dry fruits are great especially in second trimester for energy and iron. Soaked almonds, a few dates and walnuts daily are perfect. Just keep the quantity reasonable, a small handful, not a bowl.
