My saas keeps telling me to add kesar in milk daily, bolti hai baccha gora hoga and it is good for health. I dont fully believe the colour part but does kesar actually help in any real way during pregnancy?
After everything we go through, every little thing feels like it matters, doesn't it? Kesar is often recommended traditionally. A small amount should be okay, but please, always confirm with your doctor first for any dietary additions, especially if you have specific medical conditions.
Oh, kesar! Everyone told me to have it, especially for the baby's complexion. I tried it sometimes. It's more of a traditional thing, feels good to follow rituals. Ultimately, what truly helps is a happy, healthy mom.
I'm also in my second trimester and my MIL keeps telling me to drink kesar milk every night! I mean, does it really work? Has anyone here actually seen benefits from it, or is it just a traditional thing? I'm a bit skeptical.
Kesar is mostly folklore. It's often believed to make the baby fair or aid delivery, but there's no real scientific proof. A small amount in milk won't harm you, but don't expect miracles or consume in large quantities. Focus on a balanced diet.
Ho na, yeh kesar ka toh bahut log bolte hain. Mere ghar pe bhi sab bolte the ki baby gora hoga. Thoda sa doodh mein daal ke pi sakti ho, it's good for overall health. Par zyada mat lena.
Honestly, kesar in small amounts, like a few strands in milk, is generally considered safe. But please remember, it won't drastically change anything. And if you're like me and have gestational diabetes, be careful about the sugar you add with it. Always prioritize what your doctor suggests for your diet.
Kesar is more of a cultural practice than a medical necessity. A pinch in your milk occasionally is fine; it might add a nice flavor and some antioxidants. But don't rely on it for any specific pregnancy benefits. Your vitamins and nutrition are far more crucial.
