We are planning for baby and im trying to switch from sugar to gur in my tea and all. Is jaggery okay during this time or does it cause any heat issue? Heard mixed things from relatives.
Gur? Haha, I was so busy stressing about ovulation kits and timing that I barely thought about gur! But seriously, it's just jaggery, yaar. I don't think a little bit will stop you from conceiving. Unless you're planning to eat a whole block every day, you should be fine!
Yes, many women use gur as a healthier alternative to white sugar. It's rich in iron and other minerals, which can be beneficial. As long as you're having it in normal amounts, there shouldn't be any issue with conception. It's considered a traditional wholesome food.
Oh god, I overthought everything about what to eat or not eat while trying to conceive! Gur is usually seen as healthy, but I'd say just be mindful of the quantity. It is still a form of sugar, right? Maybe a little bit is fine, but if you're worried, ask your gynac during your next checkup.
I don't remember any specific warnings against gur when I was tracking everything for conception. It's generally considered healthy. Just make sure it's pure and from a reliable source. If you're concerned about anything specific, like blood sugar, it's always good to check with your doctor.
Gur is a natural sweetener and has good iron content. I actually used to have it in my tea sometimes instead of sugar, even when trying to conceive. I had a normal delivery, so I don't think it caused any issues for me. Just use it in moderation like any other food.
