I asked my dietician at the hospital about mangoes, and she said they are great but warned me about the high calorie content. She advised me to have it as a snack instead of eating it with my heavy meals. If you have gestational diabetes, definitely consult your doctor first.
I can only share my own experience—I ate a mango almost every day during my summer pregnancy! I just made sure to soak them in water for an hour before eating to reduce the 'heat', and it worked fine for me.
Haan khana bilkul khao beta, aam toh phal ka raja hai! Bas thoda dhyan rakhna ki bahut jyada mat khana ek baar me. Sone se pehle pani me bhigo kar rakhna phir dopahar ko khana.
Yes, mangoes are absolutely fine to eat as they are rich in vitamins and fiber. Just make sure to eat them in moderation because they are high in sugar. Wash them thoroughly before eating to remove any chemicals.
Actually yaar, summer without mangoes is impossible! I ate so many alphonsos during my pregnancy. Just don't go crazy with the quantities because they can increase your body heat and sugar levels.
Mangoes are a quick and healthy snack when you are working and need an energy boost. I used to pack chopped mangoes for my office snack. Just keep an eye on your sugar levels, especially if your doctor has asked you to limit sweets.
My mother used to soak mangoes in water for a couple of hours because she believed it cools down the fruit. She would happily give me one mango a day during the afternoon. It felt so comforting to have fresh fruits from home.
I just delivered last month and I ate mangoes throughout my third trimester since it was summer. It gave me a sweet energy boost and helped with constipation too. Just don't overeat them, moderation is key.
Yes, you can definitely eat them. Mangoes are packed with vitamin A and C which are great for the baby's immunity. I ate them regularly and now even while breastfeeding, I enjoy them.
