We make sabudana a lot at home and i love it. Now that im pregnant my saas said avoid karo it makes body hot. Is that even true? Wanna know if its actually safe.
Haan, you can eat tapioca or sabudana, but keep it in moderate amounts. Just make sure it is cooked really well and hygienically prepared. Don't worry, a little bit of it is absolutely fine to satisfy your cravings.
Please be a bit careful with tapioca and talk to your gynac once before eating it. I had some digestion issues and complications during my pregnancy, so I always feel it is better to ask the doctor about any new foods.
Yes, sabudana khichdi or tapioca is a great quick energy booster, especially on busy workdays. Just don't eat it too often because it has mostly carbs and not much protein. Quick to make though!
Yes, tapioca is safe as long as it is thoroughly cooked, as raw tapioca can have toxins. Practically speaking, it is high in starch, so if you are watching your sugar levels, eat it in limited quantities. But a small bowl of cooked sabudana occasionally is totally fine.
Actually, when I was admitted to my hospital, the dietician there told me that well-cooked tapioca is fine but since it is high in carbs, we shouldn't overdo it. I always prefer calling my hospital's nutrition desk to double-check any food items.
