Kathal season is here and ghar pe everyone is making it but someone told me to avoid during pregnancy. Im in my 6th month. Is it safe to have or should i skip? confused na.
My doctor said jackfruit is rich in fiber and vitamins, but sweet ripe ones have a lot of sugar. So, having well-cooked raw jackfruit is great, but limit the ripe fruit to a couple of pieces occasionally.
During my checkup at the hospital, the nutritionist told me that raw jackfruit is fine but to avoid too much ripe jackfruit due to sugar. I always suggest confirming with your hospital's dietitian to be 100% sure.
I felt so scared to eat jackfruit because my relatives said it causes heat. But I had a tiny portion cooked as a vegetable and it was fine. Just eat a little bit to see how your stomach feels.
Please be very careful with ripe jackfruit if you have high blood sugar. It has a high glycemic index and can spike your levels quickly. It is much safer to stick to raw jackfruit vegetable in limited portions.
Honestly, cook it properly and eat it. There is no scientific reason to avoid jackfruit unless you have gestational diabetes. Keep your diet balanced and you are good to go.
Jackfruit is perfectly fine to eat, just make sure it's cooked well. Don't listen to old myths about heating foods unless your doctor specifically told you to avoid it. Just eat moderately.
I ate kathal ki sabzi throughout my pregnancy and my toddler is perfectly healthy. People scare you with too many rules, but standard home-cooked jackfruit is absolutely safe.
Yaar, kathal biryani is actually the best! I had it so many times and nothing happened. Just make sure it is not too oily or spicy, otherwise acidity will trouble you.
