Mummy keeps adding ajwain in everything saying its good for digestion and gas. My stomach has been bloated a lot lately so im tempted. But not sure if its safe in this much quantity during pregnancy?
Haan ajwain toh ghar mein har cheez mein daalte hi hai na, paratha, sabzi sab mein. Itna sa toh chalta hai bilkul. Bas roz roz badi quantity mat lo, aur kuch doubt ho toh apni doc se ek baar puch lo.
A little ajwain in food or in dal tadka is totally normal beta, we have used it for generations for gas and digestion. The thing is dont start having big spoonfuls of ajwain water daily without asking, in large amount it can be heaty. In cooking quantity, no worry.
In normal cooking amounts ajwain is fine, it actually helped my acidity and bloating. Just dont go overboard with concentrated ajwain water everyday thinking more is better. Small amount in food, perfectly ok.
Small ajwain in food is generally fine and good for digestion. But since I was careful with everything during my GD time, I always checked any new home remedy with my doctor before making it a daily habit. Cooking quantity, go ahead.
