My sugar levels were slightly on the higher side last checkup and someone suggested jamun powder. Im 6 months along now. Is it safe to take during pregnancy or should i ask my doc first? pls share if u tried.
People use jamun powder for sugar control, and I was tempted too with my diabetes. But I checked with my doctor before taking anything like that in pregnancy. Pls dont self start it, get a green signal first.
Jamun fruit is fine in season but powders and supplements are a different thing during pregnancy. I would not start any powder without asking your gynac first, just to be safe. Better she clears it for you.
In our home jamun was always given in season, the fruit is good. But powder is concentrated beta, so be a little careful. Eating the fresh fruit is safer. For the powder, do ask your doctor once.
I am cautious with all these herbal powders honestly, specially in pregnancy. What suits one body may not suit another. The fruit is fine but for powder I'd really say run it by your gynac before.
