I love moong sprouts and usually have them for breakfast, but lately someone told me to be careful with sprouts in pregnancy. If i boil them properly is it fine? im in my second trimester. just want to be sure before continuing.
Boiled or steamed sprouts were my go to healthy snack, so good for protein. I avoided raw ones during pregnancy though, cooking makes them safer. Loved them with a little lemon and chaat masala.
Yes boiled sprouts are great, full of protein and iron. Just make sure they are properly cooked, not raw, raw sprouts can have bacteria. I ate them often in pregnancy.
Sprouts were a good filling option for me, kept sugar steady. I always boiled them well. If you have any condition like mine, just check the portion with your doctor or dietician.
