Can i eat pistachio with its skin during pregnancy?
i keep a small bowl of pista as my snack but sometimes im lazy to peel the thin skin off. is the skin fine to eat or should i be removing it during pregnancy? probably a silly doubt but still.
Pista with the inner skin is perfectly fine and actually a nice snack with protein and good fats. I kept a small portion as my evening snack. Just dont go overboard since nuts are heavy in calories.
Yes the inner skin is totally edible and fine, just dont eat the hard outer shell obviously. I ate a handful of pistas daily, good source of healthy fats. Keep it to a small portion since they're calorie dense.
The reddish thin skin is okay to eat, no problem with that. At home elders said soak the nuts which I did, felt lighter on the stomach. A small fistful a day is plenty, doc said same.
Beta the thin skin on pista is fine to eat, only the hard shell you remove na. Soaked nuts are easier to digest, my mother always told us to soak badam pista overnight. Good for the baby, just dont eat too many.
