I love kaju and snack on them often, but my mom said dry fruits are heaty na so eat less. Im in my second tri. Is it fine to have a handful daily or no?
Oh yes! Cashews are my favorite mid-day snack. I love roasting them with a little ghee and salt. They are healthy and perfect for those sudden hunger pangs!
Cashews provide good fats, protein, and iron. However, make sure you don't overeat them, and always confirm with your doctor if you have any specific dietary restrictions.
According to my pregnancy tracker app, cashews are rich in zinc and calcium which are important for baby's growth. 4-5 raw cashews a day is a great healthy snack to track!
Cashews are healthy but also high in calories. Since I had gestational diabetes, I had to be very careful with portions. Just eat a small limited quantity daily.
Yes, cashews are safe. My doctor told me they are rich in magnesium and folate which are great for baby's development. Just make sure to eat plain ones, not the heavily salted or fried ones.
Yes, you can definitely eat them! I used to have a handful of mixed nuts including cashews daily during my pregnancy, and they gave me great energy. Just eat them in moderation.
I used to worry if they would cause too much body heat, but my doctor said a few cashews daily are perfectly fine. Don't eat too many at once though, just keep it to 4-5 a day.
