My mom adds hing in almost every dal and sabzi at home. Im 3 months pregnant and suddenly thinking is it ok ya should i avoid? thoda confused na, anyone know?
I'm in my second trimester and also wondered about this! I still add a pinch to my food for flavour. I was a bit worried at first. Did anyone else continue using it in normal cooking? My doc didn't specifically say no.
Oh, that's a good question! I love hing in my dal, so I'm also curious about this. I've heard mixed things about many spices during pregnancy. It's probably best to ask a doctor, right?
Hing (asafoetida) in small quantities, typically used for flavouring in Indian cooking, is generally considered safe. However, consuming large medicinal doses or raw hing is usually advised against during pregnancy. Always check with your doctor for personalized dietary advice.
Yaar, thoda sa hing in food, like in dal or sabzi, is usually fine, especially if it's cooked. The quantity matters. But don't like, have it raw or in large amounts. Just use it normally in cooking, don't stress too much!
Most pregnancy apps actually list common spices as okay in cooking amounts. For hing, it's generally considered safe if used in small, traditional cooking quantities. If you're unsure, you can always cross-reference with your doctor.
Small amounts of hing used in regular cooking are generally considered safe during pregnancy. Avoid consuming it in large, concentrated doses or as a medicinal supplement. If you're concerned, a quick call to your gynac is best.
I love the smell of hing while cooking! I read online that very small amounts are fine, but too much could be an issue. I think I'll ask my gynac on my next visit to be completely sure.
Hing? Oh man, with twins I was just trying to keep anything *down*! Small amounts in cooking are usually okay, like for digestion. Don't go making hing pani shot ya kuch, just normal tadka will be fine.
I used to crave such weird things, and hing wasn't one of them, thankfully! But seriously, if it's just a pinch in your tadka, it should be okay. My gynac said normal cooked spices are fine in moderation.
I was super careful about everything I ate because of my gestational diabetes. My doctor said small, cooked amounts of hing in food is fine. Just don't use it like a supplement or in really large quantities.
I kept using hing in my regular cooking during both my pregnancies, just a little bit for the tadka. Never faced any issues. But everyone's body is different, so it's always good to ask your own doctor.
