I am craving imli like crazy these days, eating it almost daily. Then my MIL said too much is not good during pregnancy and now im a little confused. Anyone know if its actually fine in moderation?
In normal food quantity it's absolutely fine, it's a part of daily cooking. Just dont eat it excessively raw because it's very sour and can trigger acidity. Otherwise no worries.
Omg I craved imli so badly in my first trimester, that sour kick was everything. I had small amounts and it was fine. Just dont eat a whole packet in one go like I almost did, moderation na.
In our cooking tamarind is everywhere yaar, sambar, rasam, all of it. I ate it in normal cooking amounts through both pregnancies, no issue. Just dont go overboard eating it raw all day, and ask your doc if you have any acidity problem.
