My mom got some talmakhana and said its good for me but i wasnt sure during pregnancy. Im exactly 13 weeks now. Has anyone had it in early months, is it fine na?
Talmakhana is my absolute favorite healthy snack, full of protein and low calorie! I used to munch on them after my light evening walks, which my doctor allowed me to start after week 12.
Yes, talmakhana (fox nuts) is very safe and highly nutritious. My doctor told me it's an excellent source of calcium and protein during the first trimester, just roast them lightly without too much ghee.
Beta, makhana is very good for bones during pregnancy. Just roast them lightly in a little cow ghee with some black pepper, it helps with digestion and keeps you strong.
I was so scared to eat anything in my 13th week, overthinking every single snack! But talmakhana is completely safe and healthy, so don't worry. Just eat them roasted in moderation.
