My mom soaked some kishmish and told me to have it every morning, but I read somewhere it can be too heaty. Im in my first trimester so thoda careful ho rahi hu. Anyone been eating raisins regularly?
Raisins? Oh, I used to just grab handfuls of whatever I could find to eat quickly between naps (mine and the baby's). I ate them, yes. They're basically dried grapes, right? As long as they're clean and not mouldy, I guess it's fine. Don't overthink it, just eat a few.
I ate raisins during my pregnancy, especially when I needed a quick energy boost or something sweet. I didn't have any issues. I always just made sure they were clean and in a reasonable quantity. For any specific concerns, it's best to consult your healthcare provider.
I'm not pregnant yet, but I've heard some people say raisins are good for iron. I think small amounts should be okay? I'm also curious to know what others say.
Raisins are really high in natural sugars, so if you're like me and had gestational diabetes or are at risk, you need to be very, very careful with the portion size. My doctor told me to avoid them mostly, or have just a tiny amount and pair it with protein. It's always best to check with your gynac or a dietitian first.
Yes, raisins are generally safe and can be a good source of iron and fibre. I ate them sometimes. But just remember they are sweet and can raise blood sugar, so eat in moderation. If you have any underlying conditions like thyroid or gestational diabetes, always discuss your diet with your doctor for personalized advice and follow-up.
