My mom keeps pushing dry fruits and i have a small handful of pista daily. Suddenly thought, is it actually ok in pregnancy or too much heat? Anyone eating them?
Haan beta, pista is very good for health. My mother used to give me 4-5 soaked pistachios and almonds every morning with warm milk. It gives good strength to the body, just don't eat too many at once as they can cause heat.
Yaar, actually pistachios are a lifesaver for mid-day cravings! I used to carry a small box in my bag always. They have good fiber and protein, so definitely go for it, just avoid the heavily salted packaged ones.
During my admission counseling, the hospital dietician gave me a chart that included a handful of mixed nuts, including pistachios. They are great for protein and healthy fats. Just make sure they are unsalted so your blood pressure stays normal.
Oh absolutely, you can eat them! When I was pregnant, I used to crave salty pistas so much and they really helped with my mood swings. Just eat them in moderation, dear, they are very healthy for you and your little one.
