My saas always adds ajwain in food and says it helps with digestion and gas. Im first trimester and a bit cautious about everything i eat right now. Is it safe in normal amounts or should i avoid, anyone?
When I was staying at my mom's place, my mother used to add just a tiny pinch of ajwain to my parathas for digestion. But she never let me have ajwain water or too much of it because of its heating effect. It's best to keep it minimal and natural.
I am planning my pregnancy too, and I read that a little ajwain in parathas or food is totally fine, but we should avoid having large amounts of ajwain water. Is that true? Would love to know what others were told by their doctors.
Oh, I remember worrying about every little spice in my pantry! Yes, you can eat ajwain in normal food, but please don't take it in large quantities as a remedy. Sending you so much love, you are doing a great job taking care of your little one!
I am still trying to conceive, but my mother told me that ajwain has 'garam' nature, so it's better to avoid eating too much of it, especially in the first trimester. Hope this helps a little, and wish you all the best.
Having a history of PCOS made me super cautious about food potencies. My doctor told me culinary amounts of ajwain used in daily cooking are absolutely fine, but avoid concentrated forms like herbal teas or ajwain kadha. Keep it simple and safe.
