Drumsticks are packed with nutrients, which is great if you have multiple hungry babies to feed! I used to put them in my sambar regularly. Just chew them well and don't swallow the woody fiber!
I was so scared to eat drumsticks because some people said they cause body heat. But my doctor assured me they are rich in calcium and iron, so I ate them in small quantities. Just cook them thoroughly and enjoy without worrying.
I ate drumstick sambar almost every week during my pregnancy. It is totally safe and actually very good for your hemoglobin levels. My toddler is healthy and active now, so go ahead and enjoy your meals!
In my home, my MIL always added drumsticks to dal saying it gives good strength to the back. It is traditionally considered very healthy for pregnant women. Just make sure it is fresh and cooked nicely.
Haan, you can definitely eat drumsticks, they are very healthy! My mom makes a delicious drumstick curry that is great for iron. Just don't overeat them, moderate quantity is perfectly fine na.
