I really enjoy eating sapota (chickoo) and it's in season now. Main pregnant hoon and just wanted to check if it's a good fruit to eat during this time.
Oh, I totally panicked when my MIL said sapota causes heat and I should avoid it. But I asked my gynac and she laughed, saying it's a great source of energy and totally normal to eat. Enjoy your fruit, just don't overeat!
I asked the clinical nutritionist at my hospital about sapota during my weekly check-up. She told me it's highly nutritious but since it has high natural sugar, I should eat it in moderation. It's always best to ask your hospital's diet plan team.
After my IVF journey, I was terrified of eating almost everything, including sapota. But my doctor gently reassured me that fresh chikoo is rich in vitamins and completely safe in moderation. Take care of yourself, you are doing great.
I am in my second trimester and I had the same doubt about sapota because someone told me it's too sweet. Did anyone else eat it regularly? My doctor said one chikoo a day is totally fine as long as sugars are normal.
