My mother advised me to eat munakka for various benefits during pregnancy. Can I take munakka in pregnancy, and if so, how much is advisable? I want to be sure it's safe.
Haan na, munakka is actually very good for health during this time. I used to have them soaked because they say it reduces body heat and helps with motion. Just don't have them dry, soaking is better.
Haan, bilkul le sakti ho! My MIL used to soak them overnight and give me in the morning to help with my acidity and constipation. Bas jyada mat khana, 4-5 are more than enough.
When I was staying with my parents, my mother made sure I ate soaked munakka every morning. She said it is a natural way to keep your digestion smooth and build blood. It's a very safe, traditional ghar ka nuskha.
I have heard from elders that soaked munakka is very good, but I am a bit shy to ask my doctor directly yet. Maybe you can check with your gynac once just to be completely sure.
Yes, you can absolutely have it, it's great for constipation. Just soak 4-5 munakkas overnight in water and eat them in the morning. No need to overcomplicate things, it's just raisins!
Since I had PCOS, I was always careful about sugar spikes, even from dry fruits. Munakka is good for iron, but don't eat too many at once. Better to ask your doctor if you have any insulin issues.
