I have been craving imli so badly these days, like really want that khatta taste constantly. But my MIL keeps saying avoid it in early months. Is it actually a problem ya just a myth? Curious what others did.
I actually panicked during my first week because I ate a lot of street-style imli chutney and then googled if it causes miscarriage. Honestly, nothing happened and my doc said moderate amount is completely safe, so relax!
Of course you can eat imli, but don't go eating a whole bowl of it daily. Excess sour things can trigger acidity, so eat a little bit to curb your nausea and leave it at that.
According to my pregnancy tracker app, tamarind is actually rich in vitamin C and is safe in moderate amounts. Just make sure you wash it properly if you are making chutney at home to avoid infections.
Aww, those early sour cravings are so real and beautiful! I used to love licking black salt on imli during my first trimester, just limit the quantity so your stomach stays happy.
Oh my god, imli is my absolute lifesaver right now for morning sickness! I keep a small piece of sweet-sour tamarind in my purse for when I feel like throwing up, it works like magic.
