My dadi maa always says saffron milk is very good for pregnant women and the baby. Is it okay if I start taking saffron water during my pregnancy? I want to make sure it's safe.
I drank kesar milk almost every day in my late pregnancy! My toddler is perfectly fine. It's totally safe as long as you use high-quality saffron and keep the quantity very small. Don't believe the myths that it makes the baby fair though lol!
Saffron is fine in very limited amounts, but there's no scientific proof of its benefits other than digestion or mood. It's always best to ask your gynecologist before adding anything new to your daily routine, especially in the first trimester.
Listen to me, don't take too much saffron, okay? Just 1 or 2 strands in milk or water is more than enough, and start it only after your first trimester is over. Too much heat is not good for the baby.
Yes, you can have it, but keep it to just 1-2 strands of kesar. I used to put it in my warm milk during the second trimester. It's nice and soothing, just don't overdo the quantity.
I am in my 5th month and my MIL just gave me some saffron. Can we actually take it with normal water or is warm milk better? I am a bit confused about how to consume it.
